Battle of Ascension

Chapter 519: Ascension (End)

"Hahaha Varikh, I won. Your lovely boy is done for hahaha"

Guardian of Undead Race laughed heartily.

Currently, on the screen, Evan was experienced something awakening. The fuzzy image of the blue wolf appeared right behind Evan. By just looking at the current situation, Randy was done for, at least Guardian of Undead Race thought so.

"Hehe, look at your boy. It's just a projection of Divine Wolf and he already scared on the spot like that. Hahaha, look like I will have a new mount"

Guardian of Undead Race was so happy. He wanted to take the Evil Dragon's carcass from Hermit Varikh and revived it as an Undead to get a new mount, A Dragon as a mount.

Hermit Varikh kept silence. He did not give any response, but just staring at the screen.

Sure enough, just like Guardian of Undead Race said. If Randy had no more tricks than Evan was going to win the fight. The next was a one-sided battle.

Evan dominated Randy in speed and power. Guardian of Undead Race laughed ever louder as he witnessed this scene.

However, in the next second, everyone in the room gasped in surprise as they noticed the change on Randy. Just as Evan wanted to take the flag, he retreated as he could not take it.

Here, Guardian of Undead Race stopped. He stared at the scene intensely. Everyone in this room recognized what change Randy currently experienced was. Especially, the Guardian of Human Race. All of them had experienced the same thing.

In the next second, Evan summoned his integration skill, black thunder.

"Good choice!" Guardian of Undead Race exclaimed.

KAARAABOOM!!!

It landed perfectly on Randy who could not move. Even though the black thunderstrike hit Randy, Guardian of Undead Race did not claim he had won the bet. He was waiting for the explosion to subside.

He wanted to see if Randy truly died or not. He just could not be sure if Randy died during that process.

The black thunder was raging for a long time. It lasted for five minutes and then, it subsided. All Guardians had their eyes on Randy's screen, they wanted to see the result.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA~" Hermit Varikh laughed loudly with his childish voice. The laughter filled the room while Guardian of Undead Race stared at the screen in a daze.

Dimensional Battlefield

"Hah hah hah" Evan breathed heavily. Summoning three integration skills were a huge toll even for the current him.

However, he did not know why, but his guts were telling him to do this. His instinct was telling him to defeat Randy as soon as possible. Evan without hesitation used his integration skill, three at once.

Even so, he did not know why but his heart grew restless as he watched the raging black thunder. It was as if there was something stuck inside his heart.

Eval felt uncomfortable deep inside, he did not know why. But he did not believe if three of black thunder were not enough to defeat Randy. He stared at the explosion intensely.

The black thunder dissipated and revealed what happened inside the explosion. It was a sea of lava, inside the explosion, a sea of lava formed. In the center a sea of lava, there was a golden figure standing.

Yes, Evan could not tell what the creature it was. The creature had a similar build to human, but its body was made of golden flame. Everything was flame, hair, eyes, body, hands, feet. All of it was made of pure golden flame.

It was also different from the Fire Avatar Domain. Evan could feel it, it was not just a mere Avatar Domain. The flame creature held a sword in its hand, Evan focused on the sword, and he found the sword was familiar with someone's sword he knew.

The sword was the same as Randy's sword, Darkness. Evan was familiar with this sword as they fought side by side in Ascension World.

Badump! Badump!

The restless feeling grew as he noticed the familiar sword. Without a doubt, the flame creature that similar to human was Randy himself.

Then, Evan noticed the flame creature raised his sword up. When both eyes met, Evan's heart was beating even more fiercely.

Roar!

Dragon made of golden flame shot toward him.

...

Randy thought he was going to die with the black thunderstrike landed on him. However, as the black thunder hit him, he felt nothing at all. Randy just could not explain it, but the black thunder did not inflict any injury at all.

Randy stood while the black thunder swarmed and raged around him. He felt his body was lighter than before. The exhaustion and the penalty of Berserk skill were washed away.

He felt the power brimming inside his body. Randy clenched his palm into fist only to get surprised. He saw his hand was no longer covered by the crimson dragon scale, but fire.

No, he felt it, his hand was not the same as before. Randy raised the sword in his right hand pierced his left palm.

The sword passed through his hand, but he did not feel any pain. He was sure now, his body changed. It was not the same as before and He really had no idea what happened to him.

Randy just felt hot, he felt inside his body was burned. In the last moment, before the black thunder hit him, he felt the flame was raging and burst out from his body.

"Nah, I will look into this body later. I still have a fight that I need to finish!" Randy ignored the change in his body.

As the black thunder subsided, Randy saw Evan's figure that was far from him. Currently, his body was brimming in power, he believed with his current condition, defeating Evan was a cinch.

"Let's test this new power!"

Randy raises his hand, a dragon made of golden flame coiled in his sword.

"Dragon Sword first move"

"Dragon Rend!"

Roar!

Boom!

Looking at this Dragon image that flushed toward him, Evan thought was only one, Death! Just as he thought he was going to die, the flame dragon bypassed him.

The attack missed him. No, in the first place, the dragon was not directed toward him. As long as he did not move, it would not hit him.

Right on his left, the land was cut into two, neat and clean. Evan looked forward and found the flame creature, Randy arrived in the front without him noticing. There was no need to continue the fight, Evan knew he had lost.

Evan met his eyes with Randy's and uttered two words, "Kill me!"

Randy moved his hand toward Evan, toward Evan's neck. Just as he thought Randy will kill him, he found the hand grabbed the flag on his back. He could feel it. It was as if the flag was also part of his body.

"I will take this instead!"

Randy broke the flag and he easily plucked it from Evan. For Randy, it was easy to get it. However, it was different for Evan. When Randy pulled the flag from his back, it was as if his backbone being pulled.

"UWARRRGGGHHHHH!"

Maybe, one day if his backbone was pulled out, the pain was not much different than now.

Evan collapsed as his hand tried to reach his back. Evan was rolling down on the ground as he kept screaming.

Randy was not expecting, he did not expect the pain would be this severe. With taking the flag from Evan, Evan lost the battle.

Randy did not have the intention to kill Evan in the first place. If he was the one who experienced what Evan experienced, maybe he would be like Evan now or maybe even worse.

He did not know. After all, he did not experience it and he also did not want to imagine it. Moreover, this Ascension Battle would be the last meeting. After this battle was over, he would leave Earth. When that time was coming, the enmity between them also disappeared.

In the first place, they did not have enmity. Evan wanted to kill him because of his ambition, ruling with force as he lost his trust to his friends.

Moreover, earlier, Evan also did not want to kill him. Evan tried to take his flag which also meant Evan did not have the intention to kill him.

After a while, Evan stopped rolling down and looked up.

"In the end, I am still lost to you," Evan muttered.

"However, it was a good fight. Thanks!"

Randy could not see Evan was sad, disappointed, or being grateful? Evan said thanks, but his face had no expression.

"Haha, Congratulation! Divine Empyrean has won the Ascension Battle!"

Just as Randy wanted to respond Evan, he heard a childish voice. He looked back and saw Hermit Varikh there. Behind Hermit Varikh, Zhen Yi, Long Xinya, David, Limera, Oubin, Gusti, Udin, Pristine, and Akihiro.

Just like Hermit Varikh said, Divine Empyrean won the battle.

"Divine Empyrean will be the first force from Earth that ascends to Ascension World! Congratulation! As we promised, I come here to deliver the prize. Here you are!" Hermit Varikh offered a black book toward Randy.

Randy looked at the book and looked back to Hermit Varikh. Hermit Varikh nodded his head.

Randy took the book from Hermit Varikh as his hand returned into a normal hand with flesh.

Two words were written on the book cover "Resurrection Spell".

Randy's eyes opened wide as he read these two words. He looked Hermit Varikh to confirm his thought.

Hermit Varikh nodded his head, "Yes, you can revive one person with this book. This is God-Class Relic!"

Randy's eyes shone after heart the confirmation. He opened the book and the book only contained one page, a blank white page.

"Write the full name the person you want to revive and you will get that person revived." Added Hermit Varikh as he saw Randy opened the book.

Randy was excited for a moment, but then his eyes dimmed once again. He could only revive one person while he wanted to revive two people, his best friends, Michael and Widi.

He could revive one of them and revived another one later. However, somehow, Randy did not know why, but there was something stuck in his heart if he only resurrected one of them. Randy two of them got resurrected.

Randy looked back to Hermit Varikh and asked an unexpected question to Hermit Varikh, "Can I get another Resurrection Spell in Ascension Spell?"

Hermit Varikh stunned at first, then smiled, "Of course you can! You can get more Resurrection Spell in Ascension Spell. The human empire, beast kingdom, and other forces take this Resurrection Spell as a Kingdom Heirloom."

I will give you some information. Titan, the force that tried to take your daughter has five books of Resurrection Spell."

As Hermit Varikh told this, his smile turned into mischievous and playful.

Randy looked bright as he got this information. After some hesitation, Randy threw the book of Resurrection Spell to Evan.

"Come with me! You can have this book of Resurrection Spell! After you revive your sister, you must help me to get another two books of Resurrection Spell!"

Randy made an unexpected decision. He threw the book of Resurrection Spell to Evan rather than using it to revive his best friend.

Of course, the one who most surprised was Evan himself. He heard the conversation between Randy and Hermit Varikh. When he heard there was a book to revive the death, Evan's heart was filled with regret as be blamed himself for losing in Ascension Battle.

However, when he heard Randy's words, he was stunned. He looked at Randy's face, looking for something from Randy's expression. But he found Randy was truly sincere with his offer.

Randy grinned, "Deal???"

Randy offered his hand toward Evan.

Evan was still in a daze. The fact Randy did not kill him already surprised him. After all, he tried to kill Randy in Trial Island. But now, Randy offered something that impossible to reject.

Evan immediately took the book with him and reached Randy's hand.

"Deal!"

At the end of the battle, Randy made an unexpected decision. However, his unexpected decision made Divine Empyrean grew even stronger. Divine Empyrean absorbed Sirius.

Three days later

Randy held his Aveline's hand. Zhen Yi and Long Xinya also with him. They stood before the entrance of Ascension Tower.

Hermit Varikh also stood at the entrance of Ascension Tower. Today, was the day of Divine Empyrean would ascend to a new world, Ascension World.

During these three days, the news of Divine Empyrean passed the last trial spread to the world. However, this was not the most shocking news.

The most shocking news was about Sirius, the guild ruled over North America joined Divine Empyrean. It was known Sirius was Divine Empyrean's enemy but in the last moment, Sirius guild joined Divine Empyrean.

During these three days, Divine Empyrean caused an unending uproar. Today, Divine Empyrean also made an announcement in the forum. The post's title was "Goodbye Earth!".

In the post, Divine Empyrean mentioned they would leave Earth and moved to a new world, Ascension World. The post was a farewell from Divine Empyrean.

Back at the Ascension Tower, Hermit Varikh seemed to be impatient as he was the Guardian in charge of ascending Divine Empyrean to Ascension World.

"Kid, are you ready? Just enter this door already! What are you waiting for?" Hermit Varikh urged Randy.

The entrance of Ascension Tower was opened. Randy looked at his two wives and both nodded their head toward Randy.

Randy also nodded his head, "Let's go!"

Holding their hand each other, Randy, Aveline, Zhen Yi, and Long Xinya stepped into Ascension Tower. At the same time, Randy and his family disappeared into Ascension Tower, Divine Empyrean also disappeared from Earth.

Evergreen City and its people, other cities as well. Everything belonged to Divine Empyrean disappeared from Earth. Divine Empyrean's cities and its people disappeared along with Randy. They had ascended to a new world, Ascension World.

Ascension Tower also released out a bright light as soon as Randy entered the tower. It was a sign of ascension, the first force on Earth had finished the trial of the Battle of Ascension.

Golden City, Long Family Residence

Long Tianyu looked at the Ascension Tower which emanated the bright light. He was smiling, a rare happy look was plastered on his face as he looked at the bright Ascension Tower.

The boy he never placed in his eyes had long surpassed him. Not only the boy surpassed him, but the boy also stole his daughter from him. Even so, happiness was pictured in his face.

Then, he looked at the four vials in his hand. A vial contained a red liquid. The boy who stole his daughter which also his Son-in-Law gave him this as the dowry.

Yes, last night, Randy brought Long Xinya to Long Family to bid farewell. Last night, his Son-in-law also sent the dowry, one Divine Grade Bloodline, and three Saint Grade Bloodlines.

"Father-in-law, we will wait for you in Ascension World!"

It was the words Randy said to him before they left Long Family Residence. Long Tianyu's smile became wider when these words came into his mind.

[The End]
