Chapter 1445 Burn The Heavens And Hells
Seed nodded towards Elura, and she seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then her body blurred, and she was behind Maeve, one hand holding her neck, and the other… her beating heart, which was slowly wilting into ash in her grip, her moves were so fast that even Rowan did not see when she took out Maeve’s heart, and he felt a similar phantom pain in his chest as if he was the one whose heart had been ripped away from him.
Maeve face was calm, she seemed to be almost frozen in place and that was because of Rowan’s perception that had slowed down time until it was almost at a standstill, the only problem was that everyone here was also capable of perceiving the surroundings at such speed, and so he had to watch Maeve die slowly, when he was still unable to move, throughout his battle against the World Stele and Thenos, he had been in great danger, and at any moment he could perish, but he had never felt helpless, there had been a certain dynamics during the battle that Rowan took comfort in, but he had suddenly been placed in a situation that he did not foresee and now he was stuck between a rock and a hard place, and it was all he could do to stop the rage from overflowing and crowding his judgment.
Rowan’s eyes went red as successive shockwaves erupted from his golden Supreme Circle that were slowly turning the shade of green as the runes holding him bound began to erode the durability of his Supreme Circle, painting it a sickly shade of green and corrupting the stream of power that was heading toward his body.
He could see the power generated by the Supreme Circle erupting out of his body, entering the circle, and after a single revolution they would return to his body, this was the normal pattern that the Supreme Circle used to transfer power all over his body in a closed off loop that fed off the energy of reality to power Rowan abilities. From all his experimentation with the Supreme Circle, he had thought that this system, although powerful, was also flawed because it drew power from reality itself, and although Rowan had no way to tell by which this flaw would express itself, what was happening here was that Seed already knew of this flaw and had a way of exploiting it.
When the energy generated by the Supreme Circle left his body, the unknown green runes from Seed hijacked them and with that method, his Supreme Circle was infected, and as the energy returned back to him they carried a poisonous payload, they would deliver these runes that were just on the surface of his body, into his flesh and he would no longer have any way to hide his secret from Seed, but even that would be the least of his problem.
If Rowan had not duplicated the Supreme Circle and recreated them with such great precision that he understood everything about them then he would have never understood what was happening at this moment, as he could distinctly feel the corruption of Seed’s runes piercing through every facet of his Supreme Circle with such great familiarity that he realized that Seed had lied to him.
There was only one way that Seed should be capable of doing what he had just done to his Supreme Circle and that was if he had mastered the Supreme Circle!
Rowan had placed the future of his plans on the foundations of this Circle, trusting that it would keep him inviolable from his enemies long enough to discover more about the power of his new bloodlines before activating them, but as it turned out he was wrong.
Perhaps this was a secret that this old man would never have guessed that Rowan or anyone else would ever come to discover but he had greatly underestimated who he was holding in his hand, but for Rowan, this startling revelation was not as important as what he needed to do next.
Rowan had a choice to make, and it was one that Seed had placed before him.
The runes bounding his body were something he could not escape from unless he triggered his Class and his Origin Bloodline, but that was a secret that no one else knew that he had; not even Eva knew of this power. However, it appears that his secrets are about to be revealed.
Rowan had no choice, time was rapidly running out as the runes that Seed used on him had nearly fully corrupted his Supreme Circle, and even with Seed’s knowledge of the Supreme Circle, he did not know how it was possible that Seed was corrupting his Circle so easily, but he believed that this was an application of the powers of Destiny, one he had never seen any Old One use before because it most likely involved a great deal in attainment and talent that Rowan was discovering could create a massive separation, making an Old One be extremely weak on one side of the scale and for the other to be as terrifying as Seed.
If he allowed the corrupted power of the runes that had flooded his Supreme Circle to enter his body, then he would regain his freedom, and he would be able to save Maeve, as Rowan detected that the corruption Seed had placed on the Supreme Circle was one that only carried the power of compulsion, and as long as Rowan willed it, using this energy he would break out of the shackles imposed by Seed, but if he did not, he would have to watch her die.
Already the heart in Elura’s left hand had turned to ash, and the body of Maeve was slowly beginning to shrivel, it was as if Elura was draining her of all her life force and Maeve was aging at an accelerated pace, her glorious wings collapsed, popping out of her body as her joints weakened as her bones turned to dust.
A weird sound escaped from Rowan’s body, almost like an animal as the green energy from Seed inched closer to his body and Maeve rapidly headed toward death, “There it is… that hesitation to unleash who you are, where does it come from? Why do you not pick your road, I do not care if you follow your heart or you follow your head, you cannkot dabble on two paths, for anyone else it would not matter, but you will not be able to face your Destiny without it, and the weight of Memory shall crush you! If you do not pick a path, then you will fail your Memory Tribulation, all of your potential would be wasted as you would be forever stuck in the fifth dimension.”
Rowan could barely hear him; his eyes were all for Maeve, whose perception was slowly coming to terms that she was dying, and her fading gaze found Rowan, and even if it was with only her eyes, she told him…. No.
The life was leaving her eyes and suddenly, Rowan did not care anymore, his secrets and his apprehension could mean fuck all at this point, Seed and Elura were messing with the people that he loved and even if his actions would destabilize his entire plans, he was going to burn the Tree of Life to its roots!
Rowan’s mind began to move at a feverish pace, and reality that already seemed to have grounded to a halt became even slower as he began to go through everything that he knew about the Land of Miracles and his battle with Old Ones on the best method he could use to kill Seed and Elura.
He did not care if it was impossible, he was still going to kill them, and although he had never unleashed the power of his Class or his Origin Bloodline, it did not change the fact that his Class, the entirety of his being was made to keep reality in check, the prune out the corrupt and replace the old with the new, and that meant he had dominion even over Primordials, and though he was still weak, he would wager that he could still kill these two, even if it meant his death.
His Origin Bloodlines were brimming with power, Rowan could already see in his mind’s eye what would occur when that first blast of power erupted from his body, it would turn the entire statue of Elura to ash, and then his Six Origin Ouroboros Serpent would burst out encircling Seed, Divus, the first would be waiting to strike, she had consumed a Primordial Beast already, an Old One was nothing, Chronomancer Prime would…
Then there was a whisper, like a gentle breeze blowing across the leaves in a forest, Rowan did not understand what he was hearing before he figured out that it was coming from his heart and realized that he was hearing the words of Macve spoken in her heart, and although Rowan expected that she did not know he could hear this, she was indeed speaking to him,
‘Elura, I have failed my lord again and I cannot protect him, I was born too early, and my hands are still weak to shield him from those who would wish to cause his harm, and although I do not understand what is happening here, I know that I am being used against your son, because of my weakness. Rowan, you are my purpose, my life was preserved across time to protect you, your mother gave me that charge, and if you place yourself in danger to save my life, you would be going against everything that I have fought and lived for. Please do not do this, I will be waiting with your true mother, preserve your life my lord, and pull them down from their thrones! Let them regret the day that they tested your reverse scale for you shall burn the heavens and
hells’
