’Fuck. I can’t ignore this anymore.’
Jason realised that he could no longer turn a blind eye to what his oldest brother was doing. Jason honestly did not want to get involved with Gregory at all, and if Jason had a choice, he would rather live his life without having to go against his brother since the family feud had been between Gregory and their father, but it was obvious that Gregory was not interested in leaving Jason alone! Jason needed to deal with this before it became something more serious!
’And what was he saying about birthright? Is he talking about the system?’
Jason still remembered how he had gotten this system in the first place. The necklace his father gifted him on his eighteenth birthday was what awakened it, and Jason couldn’t help but feel like that necklace was a lot more special than he thought! Was this system meant to be some sort of birthright?
’Did Dad give me something he was meant to give to Gregory?’
Jason frowned as this thought crossed his mind, but Jason eventually shook his head and decided not to let it bother him. Regardless of who was meant to get this system in the first place, it had ended up with him, and that was all that mattered. Even if Gregory claimed that it was his birthright, the bastard could go fuck himself! Jason decided right then that he would have to send out some spies to start looking into Gregory and the Avarans he was gathering! If Jason continued to ignore these bastards, then Jason was sure that they would eventually grow into something even more dangerous! Stella was one of the most capable warriors that Jason had ever seen, but when compared to the rest of the Avarans, Stella herself admitted that she was only a low-level guard at best. Jason didn’t even want to imagine what an entire army of high-level Avarans would be like!
DOON!
Jason suddenly stopped and turned to the side sharply as he felt a massive surge of mana spread through the air! The mana was coming from the opposite end of the kingdom, and Jason suddenly remembered something that Jack the Ripper had said!
’He left behind a gift?’
KA-BOOM!
A massive explosion lit up the sky, and Jason immediately activated [Eye of the King] and saw that the explosion had taken place at the Northern Alliance Academy! The entire top section of the building had been eradicated, and now the Primordial that was hidden inside the building was exposed! A constant stream of pure Primordial Essence immediately started spreading through the air like a wave, and Jason’s eyes widened as he realised what Jack had done! That bastard was trying to draw the attention of other Primordials to this world! By exposing the Primordial Essence to the rest of the Primordial Expanse, all the Primordial-level beings will be drawn to the Primordial Essence leaking from a true Primordial’s corpse!
Multiple eyes from all across the Primordial Expanse immediately turned in the direction of the Primordial Corpse as all the Primordials felt their natural desire for power pulling them towards the Primordial Essence! Most of the Primordials within the Primordial Expanse were mortals who had managed to grow their power up to the level of the Primordials. And since they were not true Primordials, they knew that their Primordial Essence was not as pure or potent as the Primordial Essence of the True PRIMORDIALS from the primordial races. Mortals who grow their power up to the realm of Primordials were known as the False Primordials across the Primordial Expanse, and once these False Primordials felt the purity of the essence flowing through the air, they immediately felt a desire to have this essence for themselves!
But unfortunately for these False Primordials, many of them were very far away in other domains, and they knew that they wouldn’t be able to get to L’horm quickly enough to claim the essence for themselves, so most of them simply stopped and watched to see what would happen. If no one claimed this Essence quickly, then the False Primordials from far away would come to claim it!
But there was one Primordial Being that had been lurking around the Sixth Domain for a long time now, and the moment it felt the Primordial Essence flowing through the air, it immediately began moving towards it!
DOON!
An insane pressure surged across the world of L’horm, and Jason cursed as he realised that the pressure belonged to a PRIMORDIAL Ranked being! How the hell did a PRIMORDIAL get here already!? Jason immediately activated [King’s Substitute], and he vanished from the castle and headed straight for the Academy!
....
[Outside the Northern Alliance Academy]
Lightning sparks tore across the air above the Northern Alliance Academy as massive thunder clouds began to form! An intense gale wind blew across the world with so much force that it pulled buildings from their foundations and carried them through the air! Civilians and mages all over the world began to run for their lives as they tried to escape the storm, but none of them were able to go far since the storm was just too strong!
DOON!
All of a sudden, the people in and around the Northern Alliance Academy were suddenly hit with an intense pressure that immediately dropped them to the ground! PRIMORDIAL-level mana surged through the world without any restraints, and every single person below the TITAN Rank was immediately knocked unconscious! The scientists and researchers inside the Northern Alliance Academy were suffering the worst of the storm and the pressure since all of it was forming right over their academy!
The Academy roof had been destroyed by a massive explosion from inside the building! This had been done by one of the scientists who had carried an explosive device into the building and detonated it, and since the explosion had also killed the scientist, no one knew if the scientist had chosen to do it freely or if he had been controlled by someone else! Jaen Trush held a hand over his face and looked up in shock to see a massive hurricane gathering in the sky!
’This is PRIMORDIAL mana! A PRIMORDIAL is coming!’
Jaen felt a surge of fear pass through his heart at that moment since he knew that there was only one reason for a PRIMORDIAL to be coming here! It came for the Corpse of the True Primordial!
DOON!
But the pressure in the air was suddenly pushed back as another pressure spread across the world like a protective blanket! Jason appeared in the air above the Northern Alliance Academy, and he unleashed the full force of his PRIMORDIAL mana to counter the storm! Jason’s face was set into a stony expression as he glared at the hurricane forming in the air, and he narrowed his eyes when he noticed a blue circle forming at the center of the storm!
’That’s a blue gate. Fuck, it’s already here.’
Jason released even mana to counter the Primordial Mana pressing down on them. But the intense mana being released by the foreign PRIMORDIAL was literally tearing a blue gate open in the air, and Jason turned to Jaen and spoke in a loud voice.
"I’ll take care of this! Find a way to seal that Essence right now!"
Jaen nodded, and he quickly ran to do as he was told! The Magic Academy building had been serving as a shield that prevented anyone outside the Academy from sensing the Magic Essence of the Primordial Corpse all this time, but now that the building was destroyed, every single Primordial could feel this Essence and track the corpse’s location! Jaen needed to find a way to reseal this corpse quickly to prevent even more PRIMORDIALS from coming here!
