Chapter 1458: Luminous ----- Luminous, the last God, a White-feathered Dragon considered the Guardian of the Ancient Forest of the Elves was delving his mind into the Akashic Library, a special place in the Elven Castle that had been made by previous Gods. They gave the ancient Elf King the task of protecting this area, but the elves themselves were not allowed to enter, only the Gods and their descendants. As the only god in the world now, and the youngest as well, he was given an incredible task of protecting and guarding this world. But would he even be able to do this when he can barely protect the Elves his father had left his egg to their care for? He had been born here, his parents were already dead when he hatched, and he was raised by the Ancient Elf King, the last god of his kin, he had gone through many challenges and tribulations. He had long ago beaten the depression and solitude that he felt and had embraced nature and the people in here. As the last god, he knew he had a greater purpose on this life. He had been fighting against the creeping depression of his existence as he worked together with the elves and everybody else. And now, after someone from another world had come here, summoned by Elfina, he was given a new task. After seeing the strength of Kireina, and seeing her emotions and her true nature, Luminous couldn't help but desire to help her. In some way, he saw himself within her, someone alone, who had left a family behind, and everything… she was alone, the only of her kind. He wanted to help her, and knowing the way out of this place, he quickly began to investigate more about it, reading the many books that stored the knowledge of the gods in the Akashic Library… His eyes shone brightly as he read countless of books floating around him constantly, the knowledge of ancient times pouring into his mind. In seconds, he quickly realized the truth of many new things and learned further, but this took a toll into his mind. He quickly closed his eyes as all the books floating in midair fell into the floor, he rested over the floor, as he assorted his memory. "The Cosmic Staircase that leads to a different world… This treasure is located in the Dark God's Shrine… It is right where the Demon King's Castle is located! This… so Kireina will still have to fight the Demon King if she wants to go back to her world… How poetic, to think that she would ultimately be forced into this conflict anyway… This dying world, maybe… she can be the unlikely hero everybody wants. But… are Demons truly evil at the end?" Sighed Luminous. "After all, after what she spoke, aren't I learning new things as well? Demons simply want to thrive and survive, they're stronger than the other tribes, and got many numbers and powerful magic, but… at the end of the day, they're people like the other tribes. Do they have not the right to fight for survival? Instead of being greedy and keeping all the Fertile Lands for themselves, Humans and Elves should use their strength and unify it… The true enemy aren't demons, but the Miasma that is rotting the world… The Curse of the God's death, which endlessly pours out of their carcasses… Is this why my Element is Holy Light and Nature? Is my purpose… to cleanse the world of Miasma and return its fertility?" Wondered Luminous, thinking many things. "But that… I would need to pay a great price for it…" BOOOOOOMMM!!! "Huh?!" As Luminous was thinking many things, he heard an explosion from above, the castle broke off, and he felt Malice seeping through everywhere! He felt slightly overwhelmed, as this malice and darkness rushed straight towards him, catching him off guard while he was reading the books. He fought against it for several minutes, unleashing his light with care to not damage the Library, all while flying through the labyrinth-like structure of the Akashic Library, reaching its doors at long last while slowly purifying the darkness. "The Darkness is being purified!" He said in surprise, feeling all the darkness being purified in an instant by a source of light magic incredibly strong! The Purification Spell he also knew was being used masterfully and spreading several times through the castle. He didn't even had the chance to see the Ghoulish Elves before they all fell to their knees and became completely empty of darkness. He flew across the rooms seeing everybody healed, and then finding the large hole in the King and Queen's room, something had happened here that provoked this! He suddenly noticed a large source of light from an adjacent room, finding the sleeping King of Elves. "It seems he had been healed by someone… That's a Halo of Healing Light, incredible, who could had done this? from all I know there is no talented Priest capable of this in here… Unless? Could it had been that wildcard of Kireina? But she lacked any sort of magic of light, and I am sure that she was a being more akin to darkness than light!" Said Luminous, feeling incredibly confused about everything going on in front of his sight. However, he sensed the darkness spreading outside, as his wings instinctively flapped rapidly and fled outside at a fast speed. FLAAAAASH! When he flew outside, he saw chaos. The entire city of elves was being overrun by beasts of darkness and… the Elves themselves, over half the population had turned into vampiric ghoulish creatures, mutated by the darkness that was spreading rapidly! "T-This is… I have to do something!" He muttered, quickly looking up by lifting his large head, and finding the culprit behind it all, a laughing elven woman shrouded in darkness. "Gyahahahaha! Darkness! Greed! So delicious, so tasty! Yes, drown… Drown you all, you nasty knife ears! All of you shall perish and suffer tonight!" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶 -----
