Chapter 987: Ilse's Condition



During the awakening ceremony, when they activated the pillar, it aimed to verify whether Aegis of the Deity's plans had succeeded. If they hadn't, they could no longer pass the primordial energy to future generations. This would halt the emergence of Vylkr warriors and the awakening of gifts beyond their own generation, leaving their only protection as the Primordial barrier.

It was a risky gamble! Now, he understood why Aegis of the Arctic Deity hadn't disclosed this information to him.

'So not only she will, but her essence is also connected to the sundial,' Orion thought, deeply pondering.

Nonetheless, hearing that the Primordial barrier was constructed with the laws connected with the Divine Mysteries and linking Ilse with the Primordial Barrier through the sundial as an anchor, he couldn't help but be glad they hadn't acted recklessly and thrown her out of Paradise.Alll latest novels at novelhall.com

"So she can't undo the binding and sealing placed on her and the sundial?" Orion asked, his gaze fixed on Aerialia while flickering briefly towards Ilse.

"Yes. Aegis of the Arctic Deity had mastered the laws considerably, rendering her powerless to undo them. Even if she wants to, she can neither harm the inhabitants of Paradise nor dispel the Primordial Barrier," Aerialia responded.

"Of course, in the future, there is always a chance that she'll be able to dispel the barrier and reach a much higher level of mastery than the laws Aegis of the Arctic Deity had used to bind her. By then, you should have become strong enough to stand alone. If you aren't confident, you shouldn't waste the authority you have been granted over her. Instead, use this opportunity to build a good relationship with her, so even when that time arrives, she won't have any reason to attack or leave the floating island."

Even if Aegis of the Arctic Deity intended to seal her like this indefinitely, his understanding of any laws he mastered would always stop growing at 5 per cent. It was only a matter of time before she became stronger and undid what he had done.

Witnessing the scenes within Aegis of the Arctic Deity's memories differed from witnessing them firsthand. Even if he wouldn't fully comprehend the scope of her divine skills, he wanted to see them for himself.

Ilse nodded and stretched her hand towards the items. The stone and stick rose from the ground, transforming into silver before changing to pure gold and a rare diamond.

Observing this, Orion hid his bright smile inwardly. Unlike mortals, whose abilities are built on the world and linked to varying ranks of energies, divine skills are directly connected to the laws governing the world and the cosmos and are related to the Divine Mysteries.

"Is that all?" Ilse asked, her eyes fixed warily on Orion.

She knew he was curious about her abilities, especially since he was a mortal. However, she didn't dare refuse his orders, as he could command her very existence and had attacked her even when she was simply trying to protect herself from the divine phenomenon that had emerged during her resurrection.

No, I'm not done yet! Orion shook his head. How could he be done with seeing what she was capable of?

Aerialia sighed, having anticipated this. However, as Ilse was about to respond, she yawned tiredly, her expression growing weary.

"It appears this is her limit for staying conscious. Any more exertion could render her unconscious," Aerialia said, shaking her head.

Whatever Naka had done to ensure that the sundial, through Ilse's new body, continued to produce Primordial energy, it wasn't potent enough and needed time to recharge. Even though Ilse's resurrection had somehow enhanced its production, making it possible to sustain the long-lasting Primordial barrier, she still needed rest to keep herself awake.

"Okay. You can get some rest in the meantime. When you awaken, I'll call the workers to help you build a much better home for you to reside in," Orion said seriously, his eyes fixed on Ilse. Contrary to his expectations, Ilse shook her head. "I can build a new home myself. I simply want to see my children, that's all," she responded. Apart from her identity, the Prismerions were the only thing she remembered from her original self, and she felt she would find some comfort in seeing them.
