2292 The Abyss III
Utmost glory and radiance overflowed from Ophelia's light brown skin as she asked with a gaze of seriousness.
Noah gazed at her thoughtfully as he smiled soon after, turning his gaze towards the vibrant spatial vortex she had conjured as his words were exceedingly calm.
...!
His Emperor's robes released arcs of multicolored luster as he looked like a primordial beast gazing at his prey as his words continued.
Elder Ancestor.
A distinguished title and position as she oversaw a whole Sacrarium by herself!
It was a springboard that would allow her to become one of the beings to be fostered by the whole Ancestral Lernaean Lineage as she would receive Aeonic Treasures of Extremity depending on her potential.
Even moreso- her position as a Seer guaranteed even grander possibilities as she would be one of the rare beings that could peer into the Aeonic Annals of Extremity- a tool that allowed a lineage to learn of the many mysteries and Lands to focus on in the Vaults of Extremity.
It was a pristine position to have!
Meanwhile, the being before her was a recently risen True Emperor whose highest Boundary Layer was the 6th.
How would their roles be defined?
Ophelia's eyes became even sharper as they gazed above the vibrant space around them where radiant words only she could see were constantly blooming.
He was exactly as she had seen through Wisdom and more!
She had many choices on which path to take that would actually allow her to bring Wisdom to Extremity.
This was, after all, her main goal!
She, just like this True Emperor before her and the countless other beings on the path towards EXTREMITY were all selfish in getting what they wanted.
Yes, she wanted to rid the Ancestral Lernaeans of their weakness that would allow them to condemn their home Plane to extinction.
But the aim of her heart was...Extremity!
And Wisdom told her many things as it wished for this even more than her.
Wisdom told her that this being before her, nay, this Entity before her...he could actually bring her to Extremity!
Not aid her or increase her chances of achieving Extremity, but shockingly a guarantee of it!
The words she saw the first time she met this man blared before her eyes in gold.
[This Entity can bring Wisdom to Extremity]
The words that had caused her heart to stop in disbelief briefly before she collected herself!
They still blazed with gold flames even now as with a bright smile, Ophelia walked towards Noah's visage once more.
Wisdom told her many things following the first set of words. One of those things was the fact that this being did not come to the Havens of Extremity to make friends.
He came here to Conquer!
HOOONG!
Immense halcyon waves of radiance shone as Wisdom unfurled itself.
The untainted visage of Ophelia...an existence at the level of an Elder Ancestor of the Ancestral Lernaeans- she gave her answer as to what role and relationship there was between her and the Last True Emperor as this being...kneeled before him.
Atop the stellar mountains within the Crimson Sacrarium Antechamber- the current Ruler kneeled before the True Emperor of Quintessence!
Luna's eyes were bulging out as beside her, Katelyn's nose wrinkled beautifully as she saw this scene unfold.
HUM!
Ophelia's sweet voice came out with utmost calmness as she once again took the right hand of this being before him. She didn't kiss it this time around as she brought its palm towards her bountiful chest, the brilliant golden light having its Source here!
...!
Even though she could be considered an Elder Ancestor of the Lernaean Lineage!
Even though her Boundary Layers exceeded his by 2!
Even though she was the sole Ruler of the Abecedarian Sacrarium!
She placed his right hand before her chest as the golden light was wisdom unfurling itself from her very own heart and soul.
And she laid it all bare before him!
WAA!
A fantastical scene played out within the Abecedarian Sacrarium as its Ruler offered her very soul to distinguish the relationship they had, and the being she had offered her soul to...was truly a tyrant as his stellar hand radiating power swooped down and clenched on the vibrant soul without any hesitation!
The essence of Quintessence, Loot, and Blood surged to leave the brand of conquest on this being's willingly exposed soul as a relationship of a Master and Vassal was formed!
In a kneeling position above two stellar mountains, Ophelia felt her very own Boundary of Wisdom actually cheering at her subjugation as she sighed internally, her head tilting up to see the Entity she had bound herself to as she felt a unique sensation permeate across her soul.
She felt the foreign essence of Quintessence that defined this being as she began to marvel at it, with their being many things to explore as Wisdom was telling her if she could learn this Boundary of Quintessence- Extremity would be ever closer!
Bountiful waves of information surged into her mind as she saw this Tyrant take his hand back, her gaze lingering on him as the current reality truly set in.
He came to the Havens of Extremity to Conquer. She... was just one of the first fatalities!
