Chapter 2303 – Back
Three days have passed since the battle, and even now, I am still thinking about the aura of the source I have felt after I had practiced my art. It is without a doubt an aura of source and abyssal source at that.
It is not just me who had sensed it, all the Grandmasters and some receptive Masters have sensed it, and it had shocked us all.
From my discussion with the other Grandmasters, it had become clear that source aura had been felt across the whole world, and that is beyond shocking.
I have come in contact with the energies of the source, and even cosmic energies and aura of these sources have not spread beyond a few hundred miles, but this abyssal aura had spread throughout the world.
With the conversation I had with the teacher, it was not the first time something like that had happened in the world.
According to things noted down in the secret archives of the academy, such thing had happened before. It had happened three and half thousand years ago when Ramona Hawthorn had broken through the Grandmaster Class.
These records were written by her excellency herself, who was with Ramona Hawthorn when she had broken through the Grandmaster class and noted that her breakthrough had summoned the source gate of the abyss and not just its measly imitation.
Everyone understood this source aura that had spread around the world related to Jill, seeing how Pyramid and Hawthorn Sea had censored all the information about her.
I tried calling Jill and even some contacts in the Hawthorn Sea to inquire about Jill’s condition, but not a single of them, including the Grandmasters of Hawthorn Seal, are willing to discuss anything about Jill, even things that are not secret.
They said the censor order came from that person, which means it came from old women who people considered to be the strongest person in the world.
This source aura had brought a big change in the war; it had nearly stopped it. In the past three days, 20% of original battles were being fought, and these battles were fought in relatively non-important places.
The big battles with Grandmasters leading them had nearly stopped; even the appearance of the Grandmasters have stopped.
I have asked the Pyramid for the orders, and the only thing I have got from them is to wait. I am not the only one who got these directions; most of the Grandmasters leading the armies got the same directions from the Pyramid, including Grandmaster Tantra and Grandmaster Oak.
Now, I am sitting in the control room while looking ahead but working on Pyramid while Ashlyn scouts for any activity from the Grimm.
Hun!
Suddenly, I opened my eyes when Ashlyn showed me what she was seeing; the forts of Grimms began moving, and they were not moving toward us but toward each other.
“Commander, there are activities from Grimms Forts. Forst 1, Fort 3, Fort 4, and Fort 5 are moving, and all of them seemed to be moving toward Fort 2,” Edvin informed a few seconds after Ashlyn.
“I know,” I replied while talking with Grandmaster Tantra and Grandmaster Oak. We were just discussing when the council pulled us over the conference, giving us our new orders.
“Prepare for merge; Fort Charmain and Fort Midus will be merging with us 53 minutes and forty-two seconds and fifty-nine minutes and zero two seconds,” I ordered and placed my command badge into the keyhole to execute the order.
An hour later, Fort Aragan was completely transformed; it looked completely different. It is now about 2.6 times bigger and more defensive and now has a much bigger army and two Grandmasters.
The control room is now much bigger with more Masters and three Grandmasters. “That strange aura had made war even more unpredictable,” Grandmistress Tantra said with a sigh.
“Say dangerous little girl, the battles ahead would not be easy; we might not be even able to live a month,” said Grandmaster Oak with a smile on his face.
“Do you like the death that much to smile at the throught of it,” said Grandmaster Tantra angrily as she glared at him. “It is death, and what’s there to be like about it, but its not like we could do anything against it when it comes for us,” replied Grandmaster Oak with an even bigger smile on his face.
“Calmed down, both of you,” I said gently before their quibbling gets any bigger. “Since Grimms are connecting the forts means they have a plan for it, we should be ready for what they throw at us,” I said.
“You are right,” said Grandmaster Oak.
“Connecting the forts is not uncommon on Grimms parts, so we have to figure out what they have planned to do with it,” said Grandmistress Tantra and pulled list scenarios that could happen.
“I think the” Grandmaster Oak was about to offer his suggestion when he stopped, all of us stopped as we been called for a meeting.
“Well, it seemed like we have do not have to worry about connecting forts anymore,” said Grandmaster Oak, and we nodded. As he had said, we do not have to worry about it anymore; it had become someone else job as all three of us had been ordered back to Pyramid.
For an hour, we remained in our places in place before all of us stood up as middle-aged women with shining dark hair walked in.
“Grandmaster Rekha,” All three of us said in unison to the women who had just appeared. “Grandmasters,” She said as she greeted us.
“You were incredible in the battle, Grandmaster Zaar; I don’t think anyone of your generation had killed as much as Grandmasters as you have,” She praised, “Your words are too flattering, Grandmaster,” I replied with a smile.
When I heard it was Grandmaster Rekha they are sending to take our place, I couldn’t help but feel happy about it.
I have a very good idea of how powerful she is; she had helped me in healing a patient in the hall of sleep.. She would be able to give a good fight to that hidden Grandmaster, and if she is lucky, she might be even able to beat it.
