Chapter 30 [Moonhaven]
Divine Apostles were confused when one of the women waved her hand, and they suddenly found themselves in the same house where they had first woken up. As Apostles, they were used to being respected and praised wherever they went. They had never faced a situation like this before. No one had ever dared to kidnap them in broad daylight.
Out of all the Apostles, the angriest was Aether, who had been injured and humiliated by kneeling just from the voice of that person.
All the Apostles felt helpless and powerless. The strength they were so proud of seemed like an illusion in front of the strong power. Although they were treated well and given a luxurious house to stay in, they were still prisoners kept in captivity. They would only be released after fulfilling certain conditions.
Currently, all the Divine Apostles were sitting on the couch in a luxurious hall, discussing their current situation.
"What do you think we should do?" asked Leo.
"How the hell would I know?" Aether replied in an angry and frustrated tone.
Hearing that, Leo raised his eyebrows in surprise. He had not expected Aether to speak so roughly. So, he retorted, "If it wasn't for you and your friend, we wouldn't be in this ......"
Before Leo could complete his sentence, Blaze intervened and said, "We should not fight among ourselves," giving Leo a cold stare.
Leo stopped talking after Blaze warned him, but he couldn't help but notice that there was something strange in Blaze's eyes whenever she looked at Aether. It wasn't just Leo, but others had also observed it, although they didn't say anything.
For Leo, today was one of the best days of his life. After waking up in an unknown place, he discovered that his physical strength and magic element had increased due to his awakened unique affinity for 'Storm magic'. He had reached the peak of a B-rank mage and an A-rank warrior and needed just a little push to enter into an early A-rank mage. He got that push when he entered the Grand Temple of Asoka. He became the first Apostle to break through as an A-rank magic warrior among other Apostles in his group. Leo was confident in his ability to go toe to toe with Aether or Karl Kroner (Apostle of the Jotuns God) in a battle of pure physical strength. His only downside was that he did not have efficient control over his mana.
.
"Karl, why do you look so calm, and what are you thinking?" voiced Emma. She noticed that Karl had remained calm and silent for a long time, lost in deep thought.
Hearing that, other Apostles also glanced at Karl, eager to hear his thoughts since he was the second strongest member of the group.
Karl came out of his preoccupied thoughts when he heard his name and saw that others were looking at him. "Nothing much, I was thinking about the group that defeated us. We were crushed like insects, even though they were not using their full strength. During that battle, I felt like they were somehow holding back their strength. We should be ashamed that we were defeated by a group of non-Apostles, with only one Apostle and the rest were just Non-Apostles. I felt ashamed of myself. During the battle, I was fighting with the black-haired elf. I couldn't even last for five exchanges. I was defeated very easily."
You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.
Hearing that, Aether spoke in an arrogant tone. "It's not that we are weaker than them. Their Mana rank must be higher than ours. That's why they could defeat us so easily. And even if that's not the case, we were still at a disadvantage. At that time, we didn't know anything about their power, ability, race, capability, and strength."
"Is that so?" All the Apostles heard a chilly voice. They became alert. Aether and the other Apostles had forgotten that they were still under observation.
Aether felt a cold metallic touch around his neck, and he shuddered. He could feel a dagger placed around his neck, held by his own shadow. A black shadow emerged from Aether's shadow and took the shape of the black-haired elf, Esper, who was in the group of Akarya.
"If you are so talented, then why didn't you detect my presence? Do you think we used our full power during our battle with you? Also, for your information, our Mana Realm is similar to your group, which is around B-rank. You were defeated because you were weaker than us, and that's the only reason," spoke Esper in his cold voice while he played with his dagger, "I can kill you just in a second and You can not do anything except only look yourself die, But what can I do I have no authority to kill you, Afterall you are our guest.
After Saying, Esper withdrew his dagger from Aether's neck. just as he kept his dagger, his personality took a 180-degree turn.
Esper glances at all the Apostles from top to bottom, not with any lust or appropriate thought, All the time, he has no change in expression.
"Anyway, I shall first introduce myself, I am Esper, currently age 19 years old, and I am Origin Elven Race. I am sent here to be your guide until you are our guest." Said Esper with his broad Smile
Of course, they were not fooled to understand what here 'guests' mean
"So would you like to introduce yourself? Apostles of Gods"
Hearing that, the Apostles remained silent, but the silence was broken by Karl. He said with his calm voice, "I am Karl Kroner, from the Jotun race."
When they saw that Karl had spoken, they also did not remain silent, as they spoke one by one
"I am Leo, from the Beastman Race,"
"I am Aether Valeria, from Human Race."
"I am Emma Frost, from Demon Race."
"I am Blaze, from Dragon Race."
"Good, good," nodded Esper in satisfaction
"You can be considered very lucky that today is a very special day, Oh, I almost forgot, the event will be starting soon," said Esper, while hitting his head.
He quickly reached out to the curtain and slid it, There was a long door as he opened the large door, which led to the long balcony.
All the Apostles follow Esper they also want to see, What was he talking about.
When they all reach the balcony and see outside the scenery,
They were hypnotized by the scene in front of them.
The Origin Islands were now covered in a blanket of darkness, and many stars were twinkling very bright, It gives the feeling that all the stars were converging in the center of this island. While the two full moons appeared very bright and beautiful.
The whole city was illuminated with various colors, The city was not illuminated with fire, torch, lamps, bulbs, etc, but it was illuminated with the glow of plants, trees, objects, and even some buildings were glowing.
Many Orbs, which were suspended in the air, which was also illuminating the surrounding areas
The whole city was constructed in such a way that with the help of the ray of moonlight or starlight, all Tree, plants, and devices made up of some unique material will begin glowing, which gives an exotic look to the Whole City
The tree absorbs the star and moonlight, and then it releases luminous energy, which creates a fantastical scene like the tree radiating the light
As the ray of moonlight falls on the Capital City of the Elven Empire, everyone realizes why it is called the Moonhaven. The beauty of Moonhaven city is Maximized at the time of night, Moonhaven is like Elysium, like god resides in this place
All the 5 Apostles had never seen such a beautiful city, They were mesmerized by the first-hand beauty of Moonhaven city, As members of a big organization they have seen and traveled to many beautiful and unique cities, but this Moonhaven is beyond beautiful, it is like heaven on land.
They could not even imagine that such a beautiful city could exist, like a whole city embodies the beauty of Origin elves and nature, even the most sinful or evil person will think before destroying this type of land.
