Chereads / A Realm Transcendent / Chapter 27 - AURENDOR'S DECISION (PART 1)

Chapter 27 - AURENDOR'S DECISION (PART 1)

"Wait, Who the hell is this?" Aqua wondered as he stared at the now transformed Mitsuki.

"Its me, you dumbo." Mitsuki replied.

"Wait a second... What the hell happened?"

"Well...-"

"You will get the information soon, I shall now head back to Avalon." Kanazuma said as he stared at Mitsuki, a stare telling him to keep quiet.

"Very well. I expect that you are going back to Avalon, right?" Aqua asked, noticing that he wasn't supposed to know whatever happened, for now that is.

"Yes. I am heading back to Avalon to report this." Kanazuma said.

"What about me?" Mitsuki asked.

"You are going back to Aqua's mansion for now. You shall be summoned later." Kanazuma said as he vanished.

"Now then... Who the hell helped me back then? I swear I heard a voice guiding me... But all in all, I was able to enter the Fourth dimension!" Mitsuki thought, a proud grin spreading across his face.

"....Ki! Boy!" 

Mitsuki was so absent minded that he could not hear Aqua calling him, until he felt lightning surge through his whole body.

"The hell was that for?!"

"I have called you over ten times!" Aqua shouted angrily.

"Oh, sorry about that. So, what's up?" 

"What... Level are you now?" Aqua asked.

"Oh, my level.. Hmm let me check my system" He said as he tried accessing it.

"Oh wait.. I forgot.. I don't have a system now.." He said.

"So it's true, you have transcended.." Aqua said.

"Why though? Why does the system itself leave when you transcend?"

"The reason... Is only known by Aurendor. We just call them the orders of creation. It seems like there is always something blocking us higher beings from using the systems, no matter who creates it. So now, just know that you have lost access to the analyze skill and the Time stopping attribute you had at the very start.. You will have to now learn coding to actually analyze skills and items just like us."

"Coding? I hated it back on earth, now I am going to study codes that actually creates?!" He asked.

"You will have to. Putting those aside, it seems like you want to steal all my maids' hearts, don't you?" Aqua said as he went around Mitsuki, scrutinizing him.

"Your hair even grew longer.. And your eyes.... They look golden yes, but there's some shade of blue now.."

"Stop teasing me, there's no way I could have changed that much. Also, what do you mean steal your maids? I sensed some hint of jealousy in that statement..." Mitsuki teased.

Aqua sighed as he opened a portal. 

"You will see what I mean when you look at yourself.

Aqua's Mansion

"Miss Miyuki, here is your glass of juice." A certain maid said as she approached Miyuki who was seated at the arena fields, waiting for her brother.

"Thanks, Fay.. But I told you to never call me that..." Miyuki said.

"I know, I was just joking with you," Fay said as she sat beside her.

"Damn, where did those two go?" Miyuki mumbled.

"I wouldn't worry.. I know they will come back soon." Fay said as she secretly took a sip of the juice from Miyuki's glass.

"Yeah, I hope so." She said.

"I Wouldn't worry.. I know they will come back soon."

"Yeah, I hope- Wait a second.. Did we just repeat something?" Miyuki asked, noticing something was off.

"N- no?"

"I see, maybe I was imagining things then." Miyuki said as a dark flame appeared on her hand. She threw it towards a distant bush, causing it to immediately burst into flames. Out of the bush, several maids jumped out.

"Why are you all hiding?" Miyuki asked.

"Miyuki! You could have killed us!" One older maid in her mid twenties said, wiping dirt off her dress.

"Let me guess Agie, you want to hear more about my world, right?"

"All the maids' eyes lit up with excitement as they all rushed towards her.

"Okay okay, let us do this then-"

Miyuki stopped speaking as she sensed something.

"Do what?" They all asked eagerly.

"Wait.. Aqua and Mitsuki are back." She replied.

Just as she said so, a portal opened in front of them and out of it came Aqua and....

"Wait, b- brother, how the hell did you end up that way?!" Miyuki shouted.

The maids just stared at him, at a loss of words. The once already handsome Miyuki was now even more elegant than ever before. His presence was just drawing them towards him.

Mitsuki, now concerned about how he was looking, approached Fay.

"Fay, Is something wrong with my face?" He asked.

"Um.. Fay?" 

Fay's face was beetroot red, nevertheless, she composed herself.

"N- No, not at all... It's quite the opposite actually.." She replied.

Suddenly, Miyuki started pulling him.

"Come with me." She said, leading him to his room.

"Now, look at yourself." She said as they both stood in front of the gigantic mirror in his room.

"Oh, I see.. My face is somewhat sharper now... And my eyes have a faint hint of blue too.." 

"Somewhat? I bet Valeria and Poki will be pretty shocked when they see you.. What the hell were the two of you doing? Plastic surgery?" She asked. Mitsuki pinched her a bit, shutting her up.

"Well, I am no longer human now.. I, climbed the ranks, let's say."

"Explain more." Miyuki said as she sat on his bed.

Mitsuki shut the door and casted a sound barrier around the room.

"Okay, but don't tell anyone for now." He said as he sat beside her. He then recalled to her all that happened, hiding the fact that he had experienced traumatizing pain and that he was in a condition similar to death.

AVALON

"I see, so now he is a transcended being that you do not know of.." Aurendor said.

"Yes, In all the forms I have studied, I have never seen one such as that," Kanazuma said, standing in front of Aurendor, Realos, Nozark, Jupiter and Gabriel.

"I see, thank you for the update. Was he able to tap into the fourth dimension?"

"I am not sure about it.. I had exited the realm first to report to Sir Gabriel.. When I went back, I found him in his new form.." Kanazuma said as he wiped off sweat from his face.

"Why is there some strong pressure... Is Lord Aurendor angry?" He wondered.

They had all felt it, a pressure that was increasing slowly, as if Aurendor was trying to control himself. 

True indeed, he was controlling himself. Even though the rest thought of it as a minor issue, he was very concerned about a new unknown form.

Suddenly, time stopped, freezing everyone. The Avalon sky cast a dark golden hue as its clouds still moved, as if time had not been stopped for them. The Sky dimmed out slowly and gradually, leaving it in a dark golden shade, as Aurendor's surroundings changed, into a familiar realm.

Nestled amidst celestial firmaments, the mystical blueish realm gleamed as a shimmering beacon of ethereal brilliance. Its iridescent spires appeared as if they pierced the skies, casting long shadows upon an enchanted landscape. Verdant meadows, carpeted in gossamer wildflowers, undulate gently in the ethereal breeze, their petals shimmering like a thousand tiny stars. Aurendor's mind calmed a bit as he adored the realm he would never get tired of.

"You know, I pretty much love this place..." Aurendor said as he remembered a certain poem that a certain celestial being composed:

"Crystalline rivers meander through the realm, their waters sparkling like molten gold, reflecting the radiant sky above. Majestic waterfalls cascade down sheer rock faces, creating a symphony of iridescent rainbows that dance in the sunlight. Towering trees, their trunks adorned with gilded leaves, reach towards the celestial tapestry, their branches laden with exotic fruits and mystical herbs. The air itself hums with an ethereal melody, carried on the wings of iridescent butterflies and melodious birdsong. The celestial tapestry shimmers with a myriad of hues, as if painted by the brushstrokes of the gods themselves. Time seems to flow differently in this magical domain, where days are bathed in an eternal golden glow and nights twinkle with a celestial symphony of stars."

That brief memory brought a sad feeling over him.

"Well, I had assumed it would be better to talk to here." Herald said, appearing behind Aurendor, noticing that he was thinking of things that are better forgotten

"Before you can even speak, I guess you think I had something to do with Mitsuki's celestial form, right?"

"Well, yes."

"He entered the fourth dimension while still human, and as you know, it causes a spontaneous mana fluctuation. I only helped him to survive that and to continue with the process.. We wouldn't want another case of death by spontaneous mana fluctuation, right?"

"Was it necessary to remind me that?"

Aurendor's voice was curt, a clear indication that he did not want to speak about it.

"Apologies for that.. Anyway, I now know what Mitsuki is.. It appears that..."
