Rebirth Of Abium

Chapter 78

Soon, Abium"s monolid amber eyes saw the same cloud-like smoke came out from that divine shard. But his expression went stiffed up as he noticed it was not a white cloud. It was that corrupted red cloud he had seen a few weeks ago in the undead realm. Without hesitation, Abium moved his spiritual form away from that shard and woke up in the physical world.

"Azolla! Why that spirit energy coming from that divine shard looked evil?" He called out in alarm.

"Haha, of course, it will be like that. Poor Kid, that divine shard is madness domain, and basically, it comes under chaotic affiliation." His frown grew deeper and asked further about this divine shard.

"Kid, do you know why there is spirit power inside those divine shards?" Suddenly, Azolla"s question piqued his interest and quickly shook his head.

"I also thought of asking that question." Abium said while rubbing his chin.

"Hmm, actually that power has different names. Mages call it spirit power or soul power, while G.o.ds call these powers as divine power. The difference is, G.o.ds, gather their divine power from living beings in the name of faith or emotions. In contrast, Mages gather these spirit powers, which are scattered from the environment through meditation." Azolla"s explanation made Abium"s eyes to widen in shock. He hadn"t thought that there was a link between G.o.d"s divine power and spiritual power. But still, he got confused by something and asked quickly.

"So, why would the spirit powers scatter in a normal environment? Why the G.o.ds hadn"t gathered those powers?"

"Well, normally those spirit powers are from people who have not much faith or no faith in G.o.ds. Moreover, I heard from the elven research inst.i.tute that, even plants and normal animals have emotions. And the reason one could find how many Spirit clouds in their spirit realm maybe because of that reason." Abium nodded with serious expression without disturbing her talk.

"Next is about the affiliations, there are two main affiliations in this universe. All living creatures are divided mostly based on these two affiliations. They are Lawful and Chaotic. The lawful and Chaotic further divided into again three, which are Good, neutral, and evil." Azolla said with a pause, "Also there is a special case called neutral affiliation. Well, they wouldn"t interfere much with mortals business and only interfere if the balance of the universe is broken."

As Abium listens to her explanation, he started to understand a little about these affiliations.

"Hmm, does that mean if I absorb this red clouds, I will change into a chaotic affiliation?" Abium furrowed his high arched thick eyebrows and asked.

"No, kid. You already have a single time divinity in your body, which is a lawful affiliation. So, there will be no problem." Azolla stopped for a moment and continued with a sigh. "But don"t use this divinity. It will influence you to walk on the path of madness." Her reply made him dejected a little, and soon, Abium recovered from that.


"So, this divine shard is useless to me!" He quickly shook his head in disappointment and threw that shard into his spatial ring once again.

But suddenly, Azolla thought of something and said with an exciting tone.

"Kid, you can exchange it with neutral G.o.ds for divine energy, which will help you to increase your spirit faster." Her reply made Abium to almost fall from his wooden chair.

"Azolla, do you think I"m that much powerful and equal to talk directly with a G.o.d?" Abium spoke out loud.

"I don"t know much about other G.o.ds, but I think that Lady will definitely hear your request if you make a simple offering." Her words caused Abium"s body to stiffen up once again instantly.

"Are you really want me to trust that prankster G.o.ddess?" He asked with a grim face. Well, although she was a good G.o.ddess, he didn"t have much trust in her at all.

"Humph, she is your guarding kid. Also, I"m talking about a different ent.i.ty. Her name is Rodia, G.o.ddess of night and day." Azolla"s reply made Abium fell into deep thoughts.

It is the first time I"m hearing the name of this G.o.ddess. Who is she?

Anyway, after the beginning of the chaos era, I won"t get an opportunity even to hear any words from any G.o.ds. It"s better to use this opportunity. Instantly, Abium made up his mind.

"So how can I contact her?" He asked with puzzlement. As for other contacting G.o.ds, there were millions of worshipers and firm believers, and only firm believers had a chance to receive blessing from their G.o.d. He even heard some believers had an opportunity to talk with their G.o.ds rarely when they went to the holy cathedrals.

"You have to place her favorite item in front of a small altar and a small sculpture of her. Then you have to do a sacrificial ritual."

"Sacrifice? Humans?!" His lips trembled as he lifted his hand and covered his mouth in shock.

"No! It"s just a normal animal sacrifice." Azolla answered in a soothing voice.

"Thank mother!" With a stiff nod, Abium breathed out a sigh of relief.

Knock! Knock!

Abium frowned as he heard the knocking sound and said.

"Come in-"

Bam!

But before he could finish once again, Helena opened the door kicked open, and walked directly towards his front with a flashy smile on her face.

"What happened?" Abium ma.s.saged his forehead and asked in an exhausted tone.

"That slave merchant sends a message through a puppet that he will be back with 500 slaves in a few days. Also, he mentioned that he had already sent those adventurers guild members and merchant guild members." She said with dilated pupils.

"That soon? Hmm, he must have sent those letters through the puppet or some other methods." Abium thought.

"Hmm, that"s a piece of good news. Can you take care of those works? I have some important works to do for the next few days." Abium said as he took out a bag of white gold coins to Helena along with a spatial ring, he took it when he killed that unknown roaming apprentice mage in count Tibal"s territory.

"What are those works?" She gave him a curious glance and asked.

"It"s a little complicated," Abium said with nervous tone and was about to explain, but Helena nodded while waving her hand.

"Okay. I will take care of those works." As Helena finished her words, she quickly walked away from his room, leaving Abium alone once again in the room.

After a few minutes, Abium asked Claude to bring him a large oak woods and started to prepare for the sacrificial ritual. With the help of Azolla"s instruction, Abium first began to carve a wooden statue with Azolla"s help using carving materials, which he got from his uncle Alfred.

On the wooden table, there were round-faced carvers mallet, square-faced joiners mallet, which was used for chopping. There were also a total of six to seven types of chisels with curvature sweeps, U-shaped sweeps, etc. also placed on the table.

"Well, he had the habit of sculpting after all." Abium soon started to carve the statue of the unknown G.o.ddess, which Azolla showed him the picture earlier.

As a drawing, he started to cut down slowly using different types of chisels, and after a long time, he managed to carve the picture in his mind.

But it was a failure!…

After five more constant failure, Abium finally managed to carve out a beautiful lady"s figure. Although that statue was not much accurate, Azolla told him that would be enough.

"Okay! So, what now?" Abium was clueless about that, so he asked in puzzlement.

"Well, she has a unique taste. In ancient times, some elven mages use to sacrifice goats for her in exchange for divine power. Moreover, if you want to get the attention of any G.o.ddess, you had to offer something." Azolla"s answer made Abium knit his high arched eyebrows.

"So, for sacrificial ritual, prepare more than twelve goats." Abium fell into silence once he listened to Azolla"s words. Although he could get wild goats in the nearby territory, it still would take time.

"I have no other choice." With a heavy sigh, he informed Claude about his plan and walked out of that manor.

"I think those wild goats would be roaming near to the frozen mountain." Abium thought inwardly. Within a few minutes, Abium already crossed the town square, market street, and moved towards the northern gate through the mud road. As he was about to pa.s.s an Inn, an unusual burning area caught his attention.

Explosion? His eyes narrowed sharper, and soon, he moved towards that Inn.

As he walked inside, he noticed an old fat lady stood up from the wooden chair and welcomed him with a warm smile on her face.

"Welcome to the lazy hammer inn, my lord."

"What happened there?" With a nod, Abium asked while pointing his forefinger towards the southern direction. Almost two rooms were wholly burned, and he could see explosive trails up in the ceiling.

"Someone used a fire spell here." With a single glance, he could tell it was definitely a fire orb spell.

"M-My lord, it was caused by a slave which those bandits brought to this town." She said with a grim tone and explained in detail.

After a short discussion, Abium managed to get a gist of that story.

Aliza again! His frown grew deeper and asked that fat, Inn lady.

"Can I take a look at that room?"

"It"s your town, my lord." That inn lady nodded in response with a warm smile on her face.

Abium quickly moved towards the southern side and soon arrived in front of that completely burned room. Only black chars were painted in the whole area, and bright sunlight gave warmth to that room from above the ceiling.

"What are you trying to do?" Azolla asked him curiously.

"I"m trying to do some experiment," Abium spoke in a serious tone and started searching that room.

"What experiment?" Azolla asked with puzzlement. Slowly he started to explain what had happened last time in the unknown place he was pulled inside.

"I never heard of such a thing, kid. It may be due to that divinity." Azolla said and soon added. "Don"t share any information about that place to others."

Abium was surprised at Azolla"s words and soon nodded.

"Now, I want to try to see any information on Aliza in that place." Abium said while picking up a thin blonde hair that attached near to that half-burned birch wooden bed.

Slowly he sends his full concentration to that strand of hair and that mysterious connection with that unknown room.

Like a spark of lighting, he felt his spirits being pulled by something, and soon, he found himself back in front of that fountain.

I have to understand more about this place in the future.

Slowly, Abium shifted his gaze towards his hand and was surprised. Because, in his hand, Abium saw the same stand of blonde hair appeared.

I didn"t expect I could bring outside materials into this room. Abium"s lips curved upward, and he touched that white petal that emitting dim white light. Soon, he saw a one-meter wide mirror-like s.p.a.ce that appeared in front of him.

Buzz!

Quickly he threw that strand of hair on to that mirror and watched with expectation.

As that strand of that blonde hair touched that mirror, mysterious vibration happened inside that small s.p.a.ce.

Soon after a short vibration, slowly, it formed into an image of a girl with short deep blue hair, round black eyes, thick arched downward eyebrows, and looks similar face. She stood with a pale face while looking towards a prison cell.

Aliza! That was the first thought that came to Abium"s mind as he saw that figure. He had remembered her appearance clearly from the wanted posters from the past life memories and instantly identified. But was made his expression frown deeper was, he saw another figure in that image. From that image, Abium saw a blue-skinned figure laid inside the prison cell and appears to be shackled.

Hm? Isn"t that the child I saw earlier in this mirror room? His expression froze.

Is that prison cell? Abium tried to decipher more information from that picture but soon found that image dispelled and returned back to normal.

It really did show any person"s whereabouts. But is it past or future or present? He became puzzled a little but soon shook that thought. All that matters were this experiment was a success.

Next, I have to confirm the exact time and dates.

Abium shakes his head with a sigh and soon felt the same feeling of being pulled back from that mirror room.

Is that it? Abium frowned.

Pa!

Next instant, Abium felt he was laid on the floor and soon noticed he was still in that burned room.

Phew!

He quickly stood up and breathed out a sighed of relief.

"Kid, what happened? Suddenly you got blanked out." Suddenly, he heard Azolla"s startling voice inside his head.

"It worked!" Abium said with a grin on his face.

"Oh! But kid, I think you should only use this spell when you are in a safe position." Azolla said with a grim tone that made him startled, and he quickly asked her.

"How many minutes was I like this?" Abium asked.

"Almost 20 minutes. Use this spell only when it is necessary got it?" Azolla said while Abium was also starting to nod with seriousness on his face.

"So, what did you see?" Azolla asked with a silvery voice.

"It"s a prison. I saw this death mage girl moving towards the prison, and she seems to plan to release a child." Abium said with a solemn.

"Child?" Azolla asked with more interest while Abium started to explain about that female child"s outer appearance.

Once Abium finished his words, Azolla suddenly went silent all of a sudden.

"Do you know that race?" Abium asked without hiding his curiousness. Azolla didn"t reply to him; instead, she stayed silent for a long time and finally starting to speak.

"That child must be a creature from abyss. From the explanation, I can confirm that she is from the Syreni race. I don"t know why someone imprisoned that Syreni in this plane." As Abium heard Azolla"s worried voice, he also starting to become restless inside.
