Chapter 612: [612] Trip!(5)



[May Shivalkulan rise forth, brought back to its former glory! Savior of Dark Elves!]

What exactly do you mean by brought back to its former glory? Did Shivalkulan fall in the past?

'Hard to believe...'

Ariel was still there, Her... or rather my house would never fall as long as we had our guardian dragon, a primordial being, Ariel herself. She was our power, more than Valus, Kulak, and Lanesha. One of the only seven in this universe. Grandmother...is a frightening being herself. Was it referring to something else... What could it be?

"The death of Shi...?"

The eldest daughter of Ariel, The supreme of Death, and Kazikato's mother, my aunt. She was dead, or had been killed. Was that what it referred to? The fall of glory?

"It can't be that..."

I muttered under my breath, although that is most likely the case. Something doesn't feel right, My gut is telling me that's not the case.

I was truly puzzled, if that was not what it meant, that what? How could shivalkulan fall in glory, or whatever it was? Why...?

"In the first place... How was a Supreme even killed?"

Well, I had seen it happen a few times, more than any being in this universe besides a supreme I guess, Aranus had slain some personally. But that wasn't the point, Even Aranus failed to truly eradicate one, He couldn't make it so that they didn't exist in the other iterations, with or without their memories.

He couldn't cause a true death to all...

"So... From what I know, The World Serpent, Jormungander, a supreme being, had killed Shi, the Supreme of death, in an ambush. That's not true at all. Jormungander must have had some help, but why didn't the other supreme stop it. More importantly... Ariel? Why did she not stop it? Her eldest child had died, and she did nothing?

Not even get revenge? He heard Jormungander had gone into hiding...again from someone he can't remember. How was that darn snake still alive, after having made an enemy of

Shivalkulan?

Knowing Ariel's temper, she would have stopped at nothing until she made sure Jormungander regretted his very existence, his birth, and would beg for death.

But she hadn't... He hadn't seen a skeleton of a large snake in Ariel's realm. He didn't think his grandmother was merciful enough to simply kill him after having tortured him for a bit. He would personally torture someone like that for eternity. And Ariel was capable of it.

So why...didn't she?

Questions filled my mind, perhaps of something far, far above me right now. Well, definitely above me, but I had no answers. And that was perhaps the most infuriating thing.

To have so many questions, yet no answers. I wasn't the scholarly type, but if it bugged me this much, how much would it bug someone like Sabrina or Maxwell? I would definitely pay a lot to see Sabrina's cute face contorted into a mentally agonizing pain like this, and I would kill to see Maxwell like that.

But alas, I don't think I'll ever get that opportunity. My eyes darted all around the place, from the start of the prayer to the end, trying to get a few clues. But I couldn't find anything, I stood up, and walked behind the stone where the prayer was written. I had caught a glimpse of writing here as well.

I found it as well, on one of the broken pieces of the statue of Valus, presumably.

I didn't need to translate this writing at all with my 'gift'. Why would I? It was...my mother

tongue I guess.

Dragon tongue.
