Chereads / TOWER OF MIRACLES / Chapter 10 - SOUL OF AUTUMN

Chapter 10 - SOUL OF AUTUMN

Long ago ,this world used to be an abode for gods ,and their powers manifested to the extent that it filled thr world with an energy called Mana and any other lifeform that stepped in the world got filled with Mana.

But immediately the great war occurred,the world changed. The demons had forced the gods to move away from the lands of the world.

The demons started to hunt down the other life forms that inhabited the world. Humans,Fairies,Elves,Merpeople,sprites and the rests were forced to hide in fear to avoid the flesh eating demons.

Then a way of survival appeared ....'Magic' .....a form of power created when a life force taps into the Mana that surrounds them and draws particles into it's body to form a core .

It took some time before humans found this way, as they already started to depend on technology and civilization as a form of survival.

Then a group of humans who called themselves 'The Flying Horsemen' attempted to learn magic ,when they found out that ;unlike other creatures in the world Mana flowed through the human body instead of forming a core.

It was then the Flying Horsemen decided to go on a quest to the home of gods ….. they seeked one wish ;which the god of time agreed to grant them.

Then was the first appearance of the channel of magic that allowed humans to concentrate their Mana flow into it and then it let's them use their magic as they wished....in other words…...a spell book...…..but in its relationship with the god of time, so the formation of this book centred on one thing.

The formation of the spell book was based on the accumulation of magic overtime therefore the time spent on writing spells were mobilized into one moment... therefore allowing a spell to appear in the book without it being worked on .

The god of time wished to name his creation that aided humans on their lifelong quest to live normally in this world of theirs.

The Flying Horsemen appeared back to their people and that was the first record of sight of the 'Chronikos' ever since then every magician in the human race always had one. »» »» »» »»

*************************

Underneath the rumble of rocks Nyx was in ,a bright mixture of red, orange, yellow and brown light appeared.

The damp smell of autumn filled the realm, autumn leaves began to fall out of nowhere.

A leaf falls before Alvarus who looked at the sky immediately then he faced the rumble where Nyx was trapped in and he saw the light get brighter.

The mixture of autumn colors soon transformed into a bright glow of golden brown that illuminated the whole realm.

Suddenly Nyx raised his head out of the rumble with a gasp for air and the bangs of his hair flustered across his face.

The damp smell of autumn

grew stronger around Nyx and aura sprang out from him , resembling something more than a monster or a demon ,it seemed like the soul of a killer god.

The golden light had minimized

into an orb that later shattered into a golden brown transparent disc that has things like carvings

...and strokes making it resemble a clock.

Suddenly a book started to come

out of the disc and autumn leaves surrounded it

as it began to open slowly .

On the page that opened an ink like substance began to appear in form of writing on the book.

The words were written in no known language

but one word was clear to Nyx whose eyes glowed brown ....and as he reads the words out , echoes of a thousand voices followed .

:›NATURE CURSE INSCRIPTION:FIRST FORM ⟨AUTUMN GOD .⟩

Then Autumn leaves began to swarm Nyx and the book that floated beside him.

And after a moment the leaves that surrounded Nyx and the book,bursts and a smell of cherry blossoms mixed with the damp autumn leaves.

Then like a newly born being Nyx levitated with autumn leaves springing around him.

An armor of dead tree wood covered Nyx's body, some parts of the armor had small autumn leaves hanging on to the armor.

Nyx's face was separated into two through a branch of the armor forming a mask on his face,a horn sprung from the right part of his head.

Suddenly an unplanned action saw Nyx pull out a sword from the book . The sword has a wood like structure with dried branches of a wood clinging onto the blade.

Nyx's white hair flustered over his face as his golden eyes losed it's glow and came back to normal.

Nyx began to comes down from

his levitating state and as his feets hit the floor a wave of energy pushed the

autumn leaves around him in a blast.

Meanwhile,Vance wore a shocked expression as he watched everything that went on .

"The sixth son of the Riven family doesn't have magic.....I nurtured him!" Vance glared at the figure that stood in Nyx's face.

Nyx raised his head up and his hair sprung back

and he shot Alvarus a death glare.

He stretched his hands forth and a swarm of autumn leaves began to surround Vance and circulated around Vance.

"Now you are talking shrimp ....show me all you've got.....hahahahahahahahahahahaha" Alvarus burst into a demonic laughter as his eyes turn bloodshot.

Nyx threw a wide grin alongside his death glare at Alvarus.

"Fall of autumn…...cleanse this realm…...take control…..the soul of autumn".
