Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 525: The Great Battle Of Rain And Storm

In the ancient days of old, when the Primordials roamed the land, several leaders of each race rose up and led their people to great heights.

They were called the Progenitors.

The Demon King, Asmodeus.

The Vampire king, Vlad.

The Dwarven King, Dvalinn.

The Elven King, Dain.

The Sea King, Leviathan.

The King of the Birds, Garuda.

The Ruler of the Rivers and Lakes, Okeanos.

The Lord of the Wilds, Cernunnos.

The Fairy King, Oberon, and the Fairy Queen, Titania.

There were many other Progenitors, and all of them held great powers, allowing their races to thrive.

From time to time, powerful creatures would be born among these different races, blessedly granted with power that almost matched those of the Progenitors.

They were called the Colossi.

They were the so-called Heroes and Paragons that stood among the masses.

Gilgamesh, one of the Kings of Men, had risen up to such heights.

Jack Frost, the personification of ice and snow, brought the coldness of Winter wherever he went.

Then during the Primordial Era, there was also Celestia, the Water Fairy Queen, whom many believed was Okeanos' bride.

Her power was so great that she, alongside her lover, could drown an entire continent if they wished for it.

Of course, such rumors were never proven, and to this day, no one knew if Celestia and Okeanos truly were lovers.

While the hearsays of the two of them being in a relationship wasn't confirmed, there was some truth in Celestia's attempt to flood an entire continent with water and end all lives in it.

That continent was none other than the Shire Continent, and no one knew why she tried to do such a thing.

All everyone knew was that, when she was about to succeed in drowning the entire continent, ending all lives on it, someone visited her and tried to talk her out of it.

It was none other than Arariel.

The Angel who was said to also have the power to control all the waters in the world.

But their discussion didn't end well. It even turned into a big fight, which made the entire Continent into their battlefield.

Rain fell for several days. Lightning rained down from the heavens. Roars of thunder drowned all sounds.

Historians had called that battle The Great Battle of Rain and Storm.

Two powerhouses with the power over the same element clashed against each other, dividing the Shire Continent into four territories.

Northshire, where the Dwarves lived.

Westshire, where the Elves and Fae dwell.

Southshire, where the Beastkins made their dens.

And Eastshire, bastion of Humanity.

It was these two Colossi that divided the continent as such, giving each race a domain of their own.

When the rain finally stopped and the dark clouds covering the sky cleared, Celestia and Arariel had disappeared from the face of the world.

Legend has it that both of them perished at the same time, while romanticists believed that the two fell in love with each other and went to the lands of Saraqael, where Deities, Demigods, and Paragons dwelled.

A place that was on a different plane, which overlapped with the world of Midgard.

Yet, one of those two figures from the Legend had appeared inside an Epic Legacy Domain, and she wasn't too thrilled seeing invaders trample through her sanctuary.

The sounds of screams reverberated everywhere as the Fairies, Pixies, and High Pixies, who gained a tremendous boost in their magical powers, hunted those who had mercilessly killed their comrades a few hours ago.

"Hahaha! Die! Die! Die!"

"That's right! DIE!"

"Show no mercy!"

"Kill!"

The Fairies might be mischievous by nature, but they weren't truly cruel. This was the reason why they lived in groups and fought together if someone were to bully one of them.

The only difference was that inside the Legacy Domain, there weren't just dozens or hundreds of fairies living together.

They numbered in the thousands.

Tens of thousands!

Ethan, who was currently with Lyall, Conall, Nika, and the Gatekeeper, Aria, traveled northwest, where the tall grasses grew.

Once they arrived, they headed deep inside it, finally getting a breather from the mayhem that was happening around them.

It was at that moment when Aria finally woke up and relayed everything that happened in the Sacred Altar.

"Queen Celestia had woken up?" Nika frowned. "And she forced the fairies to hunt the invaders by making them turn berserk with her powers?"

Aria nodded. "Right now, only her spirit has been freed, but not her body."

"So her body is still inside the Sacred Altar, and she needs you to unlock it?" Ethan inquired, making Aria almost faint for the second time, fearing that the Salmon was going to eat her.

"Calm down. He won't eat you," Nika patted the little Fairy's head, whose entire body was shuddering due to fear. "He's on our side. At least, I think so."

"I am on your side," Ethan reassured the two fairies. "Right now, we only plan to destroy the Legacy Tome in the Sacred Altar, but not free her body. The moment the Legacy Tome is destroyed, all of us will be teleported outside of this Domain, ending all conflicts."

Aria, who had the power to open the Sacred Altar, nodded her head in understanding.

"But even if she is just a spirit, Queen Celestia is very powerful," Aria said in an anxious tone. "She will definitely discover us before we can get near the altar. When that happens, all the Fairies will not hesitate to attack us. I'm scared. Queen Celestia is scary."

Just as Ethan was about to comfort the little fairy, one of his water fishes made contact with Nicole, who was currently running away from the Crazed Fairies.

The reward she got from the King of Eastshire was a pair of shoes, which allowed her to skate over the surface of water as if she was skating on ice.

Channeling his thoughts to the Water Fish, Ethan talked to Nicole using telepathy.

"Nicole, follow the Water Fish to come to my location," Ethan stated. "I am with Lyall, Conall, and the Gatekeeper of the Sacred Altar. We found a safe hiding place."

"What about the fairies pursuing me?" Nicole asked.

"Don't worry, I'll handle them. Just follow the fish."

"Okay!"

Nicole immediately made a right turn and started to skate behind the fish, which was headed in the Northwest direction.

"Don't let her run away!" one of the Fairies shouted. "Pursue her!"

But just as they were about to do that, countless water fishes unleashed a stream of water against them, creating a mist that blocked their vision.

By the time the mist cleared, Nicole was no longer in sight, making the Fairies look at each other in dismay.

"It's okay! They won't be leaving this place alive anyway!"

"Yeah! It doesn't matter if they live for an hour or two, we will still kill them in the end!"

""Right!""

After hyping themselves up, the Fairies looked for other targets in their surroundings by communicating with their sisters.

Soon, they flew toward the Southeast, where many Wizards and Witches were making a desperate stand against the Fairies, who had started to corner them all.

Luckily, as Nicole traveled to Ethan's location, she met up with Henry and Rowan, who managed to find each other early.

Ethan told them about the situation through the Water Fish, which prompted the three of them to reunite with him.

All of them knew that they needed to come up with a plan against Celestia, who was currently seated on the Sacred Altar with a devilish smile plastered on her face.
