Chapter 97: Divine Battle King Blood!
Chapter 97: Divine Battle King Blood!
The Devansha clan has only existed in the tales of Devansha, The Great. A historical book that dutifully explains the deeds of a man wanted by heaven, itself. A man who fought in a thousand wars and won every single one of them. A man who chased off the nemesis of humanity with his army. A man who once unified the entire continent of Awakened. A man who along with his clan have disappeared from the face of this world thousands of years ago.
In his entire life, Elder Zachary has only seen one person with the bloodline of Devansha, that was none other than the wife of the Ancient Water Emperor, Ashley, who has handed over a key to her inheritance to him.
Today, a person with the bloodline of Devansha has appeared on his doorstep as a Challenger, who he very much approved of.
"I, Zachary have already considered Whittaker as my sole inheritor and I only wish for the best for my inheritor."
The heaven-reaching trial was a way to forcefully ignite the divine battle king blood that runs through the veins of the snowy-haired boy. There was a high chance that Whittaker will awaken his bloodline due to pressure and he wanted to witness that. He wanted to witness the awakening of Devansha's bloodline!
Nine said: Since you have given me your words, I am at ease Gazing at the handsome and dashing snowy-haired boy, she muttered, I also hope that he will awaken his bloodline...
Whittaker only had Devansha's vision because his bloodline was slightly aroused. He didn't truly awaken even one percent of his bloodline. Today, he just might come out as a real descendent of Devansha!
On the other hand, the young boy was wasting everyone's time while speaking with Lord Dark spirit.
___
"What's troubling you, young boy." Lord Dark spirit said.
'To continue or to not, that's my dilemma!' Whittaker internally replied. He was standing just before the Yin Yang symbol. The moment his hand touches the symbol, the mana wall formation will vanish and the trial will begin.
But the mana dragon that wafted from the mountain Zenith and crashed on the mountain Summit was really scary. Just a single look and he determined the pressure he will have to bear.
"Go against the grain and you will suffer by drowning in the endless sea of torment but you will awaken. Refuse to conform to the societal norm and you will awaken. Taking the road less traveled instead of the marbled path, the Devansha's awakens. Beaming a smile in the face of adversity, a single divine battle king (Deva=Divine, N=Battle blood, Sha=King) battle a thousand. A single snowy-haired man with a single weapon, dancing in the battlefield against a thousand." The Lord Dark spirit sang for a mysterious purpose.
Whittaker who was standing before the Yin Yang symbol shuddered. This song felt so familiar as if someone had sung it in his ear, a long time ago. The recollection of a long lost past crept up from his subconscious.
He remembered someone's warmth but he could not remember who that person was. Her face was blurry as she sung a lullaby to a newborn baby gently embraced within her warmth. Warm tears appeared in cold Icy eyes, as the young snowy-haired boy stood still trying his best to remember the blurry face in his memories.
"Just who is she? Lord Dark Spirit, what song did you sing?" He internally asked while lost in thoughts.
"Young boy, this is the song of glory that is sung in the ears of every newborn of the Devansha. The person who sang it in your ears was your mother. She is also the blurry face in your memory. If you want to obtain more answers to your questions then climb up the mountain. Complete what I wish and I will tell you about it." Lord Dark spirit mysteriously said. His purpose was to help Whittaker awaken the bloodline of Devansha but he could not outright say it otherwise, the reason behind his mysterious actions will.be completely wrecked. There was a high chance of Whittaker failing to awaken his bloodline if he knows about it beforehand, after all.
Similarly, there is a high chance for Whittaker to awaken his divine battle king bloodline if he did not know about this purpose beforehand.
Nina felt a tinge of pain stinging her soul as she glanced at the pitiful face of the lost puppy, who was unable to decide what he should do.
Zachy, should I tell him that you will save in when he's near dead? Nina asked.
"No, that will disturb my plans and he will not be able to awaken his divine battle king bloodline." Elder Zachary replied while thinking that the boy is saddened for having to face a trial with a chance of real death.
Although he was wrong about the reason, Whittaker was really feeling sadness caused by a long lost warmness. Sometimes it's better to not remember something, especially if the mind has suppressed those memories in the subconscious part of the brain. Remember, Whittaker has an inhumane ability to remember stuff forever after just glancing at them once. He has the ability to recall an image from his memory with high precision for a brief period after seeing it only once, and he should have remembered who his mother was.
Shaking his head left and right, he fought off the melancholic feeling that was hurting his heart emotionally, depressing him mentally.
He thought internally, "Following reasons, the only way to find more about who my parents are to complete this trial and fulfill Lord Dark Spirit's wish!"
Left with no choice, the descendent of the Devansha put his hand on the Yin Yang symbol, prompting the Mana wall separating him from the Heaven-Reaching mountain to disappear.
Wheels of destiny started to rotate, producing churning noises, as providence called for it. Also, because the snowy-haired boy decided to take the Heaven-reaching mountain trial located in Zachary's palace.
Will the wheel of fate crush him or will he awaken his bloodline to obtain what's fated?
