Chapter 1134 Cap 1132: What Comes Out Of The Cocoon? Part 8



My head was confused, my Soul was shaking and my body was shattered, but strangely I felt almost no pain, the biggest feeling that weighed on me was absolute exhaustion.

I don't know how this Area I created was keeping me on my feet, but I was very grateful since I wasn't able to continue standing on my own, just maintaining awareness was already an exercise of will that was demanding a lot to maintain.

System notifications about the progress of the Awakening Ceremony work well to keep my mind focused on the task at hand.

A lot of unexpected things were happening and I decided not to think about any of it, I wasn't in a position to worry about each thing happening or wondering why things happened like that, those were concerns for the Zenos of the future.

The only thing I thought about for a few seconds were the two system questions, or should I say the questions the system was asking as it voiced the needs of the Awakening Ceremony.

Using my mind and memories as a basis for this creature was an easy thing to do, I know from experience that these things will not define the creature's personality and self ego since it was not itself that lived these memories, the only thing that will be useful will be giving information about the world, emotions and ways of interacting.

Hela is a perfect example of this, when I created her I made sure to use the memories of her previous life, a Priest of an Evil God who was creating an army of Undead, but even so from the beginning, she never acted like she did in her life previous even though it's the same Soul with the same memories, so I believe using my mind as a base pattern isn't bad.

Using the same line of thought, I allow to use the minds of those who were devoured by the cocoon, the memories will only be additional information in the mind, and his coexistence from now on will be what will define his personality and character.

Giving both permissions I felt a flow of energy swirl inside my head before passing through the natural energy flow going to the cocoon, in a way it was something that made my mind more awake when being stimulated.

Having less struggle to maintain consciousness, I was able to pay attention to the changes in the cocoon that had a large anthropomorphic Dragon holding a sword by the hilt facing downwards and surrounded by the starry sky as if it were part of it.

There were also countless stars swirling around the cocoon making it increasingly difficult to see him in the middle of them, a stream of stellar energy had been descending from the Sword to the cocoon for I don't know how long.

And as soon as there were so many stars around the cocoon that I couldn't let any trace of it appear, the stars crystallized in the shape of a big egg and that's when I saw movement in the three in front of me.

Alice, Karina, and Eva who were at my side move in the same rhythm assuming positions around the big starry crystal egg forming a triangle around it, their Auras fused with the area I created seems to form a song that I could only hear with my Aura as his words began to sound laden with my Authority.

"< May you be the Guardian of the will of the one who embodies chaos now and forever being the one who proclaims his will and his Way. >" (Alice/Karina/Eva)

"< Receive the Power your will desires! >" (Alice/Karina/Eva)

"< Come into existence in his name! >" (Alice/Karina/Eva)

"< May your body be the manifestation of his power! >" (Alice/Karina/Eva)

"< May your mind be an example of his ideals! >" (Alice/Karina/Eva)

"< May your Soul be a symbol of his will! >" (Alice/Karina/Eva)

"< In the name of Zenos, I testify! >" (Alice/Karina/Eva)

"< In the Name of Zenos, may his will be Hallowed! >" (Alice/Karina/Eva)

"< In the name of and Zenos come to exist under this land! >" (Alice/Karina/Eva)

Every word spoken by them was charged with my Authority and an image appeared behind each one.

Behind Eva was an image of my Coat of Arms.

Behind Karina was an image of me in Dragon form as the Dragon Totem that is holding the sword.

Behind Alice was an image of me in Human form holding the Star Sword.

A column of light appeared in each one of them leaving them in the middle while the inner space of the triangle trembled, traces of the Light of each of the 3 columns was sucked little by little by the egg between them.

It didn't take long to feel the pressure on top of me suddenly increase when the natural energy flows between me and the egg were completely integrated with the connection between me and it, thanks to which I could feel traces of a turbulent Soul and consciousness, as I reached out my consciousness and Soul to it in an attempt to calm it down, I succeeded and the egg began to burn in stellar flames.

Then I felt my Holy power that is all over this area go towards the flames, I also saw the Dragon Seal beside me burn in white flames that flowed towards the stellar flames being engulfed by it and my Authority was coming from the starry sky above the Dragon Totem piercing through his body before flowing into the Star Sword and into the star flames below.

The pressure I was feeling was the same as he felt because of the Dragon Totem msu on top of him pointing the Star Sword towards him, I was sharing in his senses without realizing it and stopped extending my awareness towards him as soon as he regained calm, as soon as I did that the pressure disappeared and I saw his desire to be named.

I could give him any name, but it would be boring, I prefer to do what I usually do and that's why I spent all this time until I got to the Castle of Dragons thinking about a name for him.

Its origin comes from a curse called the "Curse of the 4 Hells" that I created during my curse studies and used it only once against a Judge of the Temple of Law who did something disgusting in my view, but that was just the base, I used it this curse as punishment against that judge, I also know that my sisters used the cocoon as a form of execution against those who tried to take advantage of the horrible citation that the Gray Elves were passing around with their World Tree and the Dragon Seal that I used just now was something that came from the Dragon God's Judgment of an entire Tribe of Light Dragons accused of betraying their own race.

From beginning to end this cocoon has been associated with judgment, punishment, and execution to the point where it's part of what it represents, so I'll name it accordingly.

I will name a God from the world of the dead responsible for judging those who die, condemning sinners, and guiding souls towards their final reincarnation.

But even with a name like that, I hope he lives not for condemnation but for the opposite.

"I give you the name Hades, may it be a guiding symbol rather than a condemning one." (I)

I felt the Blessings of the 3 Gods sinking into me once more before becoming inactive, then I felt the power of multiple Gods weighing down on me for just 1 second before disappearing, then the entire area around me shattered being sucked into the flame as the image of the starry sky, the Dragon Totem and the Stellar Sword disappears swallowed by space.

I see Karina, Alice, and Eva falling to the floor unconscious as the images on their backs disappear along with the column of light that surrounded them.

I myself feel my consciousness blink barely registering the ground approaching my face as I fall.

I forced myself to maintain consciousness just long enough to strain my head in an attempt to see the egg trapped in stellar flames, but all I saw were the cracks forming in the egg as the stellar flames were sucked into the cracks in the egg that covered its entire surface.

I could feel that it was being hatched and I forced myself to remain with my eyes open until the first part of the egg shell fell away turning to dust revealing the eyes within the darkness of the egg.

Our eyes met instantly and I couldn't help but smile when I saw the clarity in those eyes before I lost consciousness falling into a deep sleep.
