Chapter 115 connection
"So what are we going to do with it? We can't just take it with us because it will be useless if we do, but leaving it here is also a waste." Surprisingly, Aphrodite was the one who asked about that. She would stay still at my side most of the time, but this is a rare sight of Aphrodite getting things done. While she would be playful most of the time, she was still a goddess.
And goddesses don't play around when it comes to their interests or status. This time, the source is so precious that even though Aphrodite doesn't know what it does, she still wants it and investigates it. "Well, we can't take it with us, but we could have our people come and make this place one of its strongholds."
A quick proposal was thrown at me, and after thinking about it for a second, I agreed." Let's do that then. This place is really good for people to help control their magic, and with the amount of growth the average member goes through in a short amount of time, it is needed." We began walking away from the stone when we made that decision.
The forest around the lake was the perfect place to make a hidden stronghold. We walked for ten minutes before the effect of the lullstone disappeared, and monsters began to appear. Another fifteen minutes later, we saw a small mountain with a good location for what we wanted.
We climbed a bit before Amaterasu blasted a hole in the mountain where we could set a teleportation stone. This stone couldn't be used for traveling between worlds if the person who used it didn't have at least the same amount of mana as a rank ten, so while I could do it with my extra large mana reserves, Olivia couldn't.
"Are we going to try it? If we make the connection now, Elysium will grow faster than expected because of that connection. Are you sure that you want to do that now?" Asking a relevant question, Amaterasu looked at me because they knew of my plans. "Yes, it would have been done sooner or later, and doing it now doesn't make a big difference in the plans."
"I just hope that the attacks come faster so that I can go where I don't have to limit my growth even though I have a strong base because of it." Because of the dangers that I could face in this universe, I stopped myself from growing too quickly and just made sure that I was always more than one hundred percent ready to advance to the next rank.
After training and the dungeon, I am almost rank nine, but if I hadn't limited myself, being a Demigod wouldn't be rare by now. But that was just speculation. Even though I wanted to be a higher rank, it was better for me to do it slower so that I could increase my mana reserves and mana control to the best that the rank I am allowed me.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hearing my words, Amaterasu and Aphrodite activated their magic, and they let mana flow through the stone. I closed my eyes and did the same. With my concentration fully focused on mana, I became even more aware of its existence. Colorful particles danced in the air around me. But the most beautiful was the mana that came out of the hands of the ladies next to me.
Aphrodite's mana was purple-pink, complimenting her seductive and sexy nature, while Amaterasu's was golden. Her being the goddess of light and fire is no joke, and even though there was no harmful intention, I could feel the mana burning the surrounding air. With such powerful mana in the air, I almost couldn't sense the other mana source that fed the stone.
This one was black but also had a little light on it. This was Olivia's mutated mana. Her shadow magic is of a mutated type, and now it has fully integrated into her body. While not as strong as the other two women's, her magic helped create the connection. I used my powers to locate the stone that I wanted to link it to.
I even sent a bit of my consciousness to my clone so that it could help with creating the connection. After three hours, we made the connection between the two worlds.
....
A group of twenty women were training on the grass plane that stood behind one of the buildings that was their stronghold. They were getting ready to fight the next wave of attackers when, suddenly, earthquakes began to happen all around them. While this wasn't the first time, as the world wasn't that stable, this one was stronger than all the others.
Not expecting this, they were a bit caught off guard but quickly sprang into action and went in formation, thinking it was a new attack. A portal opened above their base, and they were ready to throw their attacks, but they stopped when they saw a tanned woman with black hair appear before them.
"Greetings, madam Kali, Noira, squad captain of squad thirteen, reporting." The woman who seemed to be the leader stepped out of formation and greeted the person they had trained from not long ago. Kali looked back at them and gave them a kind smile. "You guys should go on your knees before you regret it."
There was no anger in her voice, only a hint of warmth. She must be giving advice, so we quickly went on our knees and looked up at the portal. The portal shimmered, and a leg stepped out, and the connection that everyone from the cult wanted to strengthen was being strengthened more than ever before.
'I can feel it.' Noira held her hand close to her heart. 'This... No, do I look good today? I don't know. How can't I even look good when it is my first time meeting my god?' She was filled with anxiety because of the pressure she put on herself. But warm energy went through her connection before she could drown even further, and all her worries vanished.
She looked up at her god and saw him smiling down at them.
What do you think?
