Strongest Warlock - Wizard World Irregular

Chapter 531: A Tale Of Partings

Oberon looked calm on the surface, but truth be told, he was anything but calm.

Usually, a person could only obtain one Legacy in their lifetime because getting more would simply make their body implode from the inside out.

Legacies were abilities that came from beings who possessed great power.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it their lifetime's worth of experience, which they wished to pass onto the next generation so that their Legacy would live for many years to come.

Everytime a Legacy Holder died, the Legacy would look for someone else to inherit its will.

Yes.

Legacies were Sentient powers that had the right to choose their owners.

If they fail to find someone worthy or they were rendered incapable to look for that person, they would then turn into a seed, which would give birth to a Legacy Domain.

Within this Domain, the Legacy would wait for their Fated Person, bestowing upon them the power that would make one rise from the masses.

To a certain extent, Epic Legacies were the same. But, there were some exceptions.

This included Celestia's Domain.

Her Legacy Domain wasn't born naturally. It was created to seal her and hide her from those who were looking for her.

The Fomorians had once sought her powers, and the people whom she trusted betrayed her.

Her own Kingdom within the Shire Continent was also mercilessly attacked, and thousands of her subjects were killed, driving her mad with anger.

Back then, she thought that the Shire Continent had betrayed her and sold her out to the Fomorians, so she decided to end them all alongside those who wished to use her powers.

Using her own life force, she conjured a storm that would drown the entire continent until all life in it had perished.

Of course, all the beings of the Shire Continent, including the Fomorians, wouldn't just let her do as she pleased, so they all united against her.

But who was she?

She was one of the Colossi.

A being who was only a Rank below a Progenitor, wielding powers that could decimate entire Kingdoms if she wished for it.

But, no, she didn't wish to decimate Kingdoms one at a time. She wanted to end all life with one great spell and almost succeeded, if not for the fact that another Colossi had appeared to stop her.

That person was none other than Arariel.

The moment he appeared, he massacred all the Fomorians and executed the people who had betrayed Celestia.

After that, he gave all the races in the Shire Continent an ultimatum.

If they messed with Celestia one more time, he would return to finish what she started, dragging the Shire Continent to the bottom of the sea.

Using his powers, Arariel revived the Wood, Fire, Wind, Water, and Light Fairies who had died into Water Fairies, Pixies, and High Pixies, making the Water Fairy Queen finally calm down.

Peace once again returned to the land, but Celestia, Arariel, and the Fairies under her command disappeared from the face of the world.

But, they didn't really disappear.

Arariel had simply taken them to the most advanced Kingdom in Midgard, which would later be known as the Legendary City of Atlantis.

For a time, Arariel and Celestia lived happily together. Perhaps being in close proximity with each other, it was only natural for love to bloom.

Their union gave birth to a boy, whom they had named Llyr.

Llyr grew up to be an exceptional child, and like them, he was also a Colossi.

Inheriting the power of both the Fae and the Sea, he was truly a force to reckon with.

But alas, Atlantis had become too great and too powerful, making the other Progenitors, and Colossi, see them as a threat.

Faced with this threat, Celestia and Arariel had to make an important decision.

They would need to hide once again and resurface at a time when Llyr was strong enough to face all opposition.

But before they could properly hide away, the Progenitors and Colossi attacked Atlantis in a united front.

Leading them was the Balor of the Fomorians. With the help of the Shadow Sovereigns and the Arch Demons, they destroyed everything that Arariel and Celestia had built overnight.

But, their enemies paid a heavy price for it.

Arariel and Celestia were not pushovers, and the battle in the sea raged for seven days and seven nights.

The Progenitor of the Sea, Leviathan, also rose up to fight, making it the greatest battle ever waged on land and sea.

The Krakens, Sirens, Mermaids, Nagas, and all Aquatic Races fought tooth and nail, dyeing the sea red with the blood of their foes.

In the end, Arariel, Celestia, and the Leviathan won, but it was a pyrrhic victory, with countless lives lost in the aftermath.

Seeing the remains of his Kingdom, Arariel made a hard choice.

He asked those who wished to leave to seek shelters in the kingdom of men, for he would take Atlantis to the deepest corner of the sea, where no one would be able to find it.

Many left, but more remained.

And those who did were converted into Merfolk, becoming Mermaids and Merman, who would live in Atlantis and protect it for as long as they lived.

Knowing that staying in Atlantis would only endanger their people, Arariel and Celestia decided to hide, allowing their son, Llyr, to freely wander the world.

No one knew, except a handful of trusted beings, that Celestia had given birth to a son.

The Fairy King Oberon, the Fairy Queen Titania, and the Lord of the Sea Leviathan were those select few who knew of Llyr's existence.

Back then, the Mermaid Queen foretold a Prophecy, which strengthened Arariel's and Celestia's resolve to seal themselves for a period of time until their son grew up to become someone who was strong enough to protect himself from their enemies.

Arariel and Celestia returned to the Shire Continent and looked for a secluded place in Westshire.

There, they planned to seal Celestia's body and power, creating a Legacy Domain that would manifest itself once Llyr or his descendants arrived in the Shire Continent.

As for Arariel, he hid himself in a secluded place in the Lands of Saraqael, waiting for the day that their Family could be reunited once again.

"What a monster," Oberon muttered as he looked at Ethan, who was sleeping peacefully in Celestia's arms.

"Stop calling him a monster." Celestia glared. "He's Llyr's descendant."

"I know, but that doesn't explain why he can have more than one Legacy inside his body," Oberon commented. "Don't you feel it? Aside from the power of the Sea and Fairies, he still has other powers inside his body. One of them even reeked of Demons."

Celestia frowned because she also felt the Demonic Powers inside Ethan's body. However, as someone who wielded great power, she also understood that there is no such thing as good or evil powers.

It depended on the person who wielded them, and whether they would be used for good or bad.

"Anyway, I'm leaving," Oberon stated. "I can't stay in this domain, especially since my real body is in Midgard."

Oberon had only used his Spiritual Body to travel to Celestia's Domain because it was impossible for him to bring his physical body.

Since Celestia didn't answer his question on what she planned to do, he believed that he already knew the answer.

After the Fairy King disappeared, Ethan's eyebrows furrowed, making the Water Fairy Queen look at him excitedly.

She had completely forgotten that she was the one who had seriously injured the teenage boy, and was even looking forward to getting to know him better.
