Chapter 151: Nultharia [1]



***

Amon felt every tissue in his body press tight as he plunged into the river.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

It was as if everything in his body had been knocked out of him.

As if he was standing in the center of a vacuum.

That's just how dense the mana was.

It felt like a hydraulic compressor squeezing his mana veins tight, threatening to bust them with overload at any moment.

Pain engulfed his whole body as he felt his consciousness blur.

The strong compression was too much for his brain to handle.

He felt his heart thump against his chest as if it was burning. Amon's eyes became bloodshot.

He was drowning in the sea of his own consciousness.

Slowly fading away, part by part.

'What...'

The light at the surface started growing further as his vision narrowed.

He kept drowning deeper and deeper.

'What am I doing here?' He asked himself.

He didn't know.

He didn't remember.

'What is this peaceful place?' He looked at his palms through his narrowed eyes.

They felt so heavy.

Amon wanted to sleep.

Badly.

'This place....'

'It's so quiet.' The light went further and further, throwing him into a deeper corner of darkness.

Amon's eyelids drooped as he felt his eyes grow even more heavier.

He didn't remember anything.

'And...'

Except for the fact that....

'It's so comfortable here.'

Amon closed his eyes and let himself go, wanting to finally sleep.

'I just want to rest after this long...'

He was tired.

Tired of it all.

Amon's speed accelerated as darkness started to engulf him and the light turned into a bleak dot far away.

He just wanted to...

Let it all g-

'AMON!' He heard a voice.

A voice from far away.

It only echoed numbly inside his ear because of the sea.

For some reason, it felt a little familiar.

But...

'Just let me sle-'

'Wake up! Don't lose yourself!' A shout came again.

Amon's eyes opened a little, finding the tiny speck of light far away.

'Wha-'

'You are going to die! Wake up!'

Louder this time.

And more familiar.

More...

'Who-'

'THIS IS ME! REMEMBER ME? DON'T LOSE YOUR IDENTITY.' More louder.

He had expected such a possibility before but never thought it was true.

The Void...

It was eating away at the mana and strengthening itself.

As soon as the element leveled up, Amon felt both speeds equalize again.

Considering both were equal right now, he was sure that nobody would be able to sense his

element outside.

Now...

For the main process.

Amon concentrated on the mana around him before the [Void] ate it whole.

He started to pull it inside him, concentrating on a single position.

All of a sudden.

An idea flashed inside his mind as he was picking up a location.

It was worth a shot. Immediately, he started to concentrate and accumulate the [Void] element and mana in his

chest.

Right in the center.

Pushing himself to limits, he tried to swirl it around.

Amon gritted his teeth as he bit his tongue to keep himself focused.

Just...

Just a little more.

All of a sudden, it moved.

It started to circulate on the location.

Amon felt like shouting in joy but controlled himself and then started the next step.

He used [Void] at full capacity, making it eat away while he swirled the mana at that spot.

Slowly but surely, the ratio of [Void] mana inside his body started to increase.

He felt it.

It was happening.

The swirling of the mana turned into a whirlpool as Amon pulled more mana in.

More.

And more.

The whole sea of mana started to drain as it surged towards Amon.

Amon felt the crystal encasing inside his body start to break under the pressure of Void and

mana but he pushed himself more.

He couldn't let it go now.

He was too far in to debate giving up.

His mana heart would burst if he chose to let go now.

He pushed everything at max capacity as he drained out the last bits of his mana.

Amon's vision started to blur as the mana and the [Void] started to condense into a single

spot.

They started to compress now.

Into a single ball that went inside his heart.

And in the next moment.

It burst inside Amon's body.

But contrary to what was supposed to happen, Amon saw two notifications in front of him.

[Your [Void] element has leveled up!]

He smiled.

But the second one made him want to pour out tears of joy.

[Your familiar [Zephyra] has woken up.]

And instantly, a large body collided with Amon from underneath.
