Chapter 6: "Astral Revelation"
Within the enigmatic void, Damian's curiosity led him to question the figure before him—Astraios, the god of stars and planets. To his surprise, the god revealed a cosmic feature: a status screen accessible with a mere tap in the air, displaying Damian's newfound level, a staggering 50.
Baffled by his rapid progression, Damian learned that the formidable bird he vanquished was a level 40 foe, a testament to his own burgeoning strength. Astraios, pleased with Damian's affinity for constellation powers, bestowed upon him a blessing—every 100 levels, he could gain planet powers, an unforeseen gift that expanded his cosmic potential.
As the encounter concluded, Damian bid farewell to the god, plummeting from the sky. In the descent, he gazed upon the night sky, where Aquila, The Eagle constellation, graced his vision. In that moment, wings sprouted from Damian's back, and he soared through the celestial heavens, a childlike exhilaration coursing through him.
Yet, the newfound power came with a revelation—his energy was depleting rapidly, and the forest journey brought an unsettling realization. Orio, his loyal companion, was missing. The god who once erred in causing Damian's demise now has Orio playing in heaven, this made his heart melt.
With a snap of god's fingers, Orio reappeared, and relief washed over Damian. In the embrace of his faithful companion, they rested beneath the night sky, their celestial journey taking unexpected turns. As they slept, dreams of constellations and planets danced in Damian's mind, hinting at the untold adventures that awaited him. To be continued...
