Chapter 316 - 316: Am I?
[Chapter 315 Comments.]
[Keltic_Spirit: I do wonder what is special about the moon in this world. The moon shines in the radiance of the sun, yet many people believe that the moon's rays are distinctly different and are portrayed as such.]
…
"Haa… Ha…" Serena panted heavily. She had been climbing this mountain for more than six hours nonstop without using her essence to boost her physical ability.
Compared to others, this test was much harsher for her.
"We have to keep going!"
"Do you need help?"
Lancelot and Jayden were worried about her, considering she had been trying to match their speed.
Serena shook her head. "There's no need. You guys should continue. No need to wait for me. I will climb this mountain no matter what it takes."
This might be the test that Theo wanted them to solve in order to get stronger. She didn't understand much, but she would definitely do whatever she could to pass the test from Theo.
Lancelot and Jayden frowned. On the one hand, they understood the difference in their physical abilities. On the other hand, Serena was glaring at them as if she were implying that she didn't need their pity.
Still, after the previous test, where kindness was what Theo was
"Fine."
"In your family's history, do you have someone who is so talented that their power has reached to a level that no one can believe? It doesn't need to be your family. Any other clans who are occupying the twelve landmarks or even the clans who were gone in the present era…"
"!!!" Dantalian's body shook. It seemed that Theo was aiming for something. Although a bit hesitant, Dantalian still answered, "There were three people in the past. The last one was a thousand years ago. Those three people became a spirit king. Their power was immeasurable. It was said that when they became a spirit king, the divine landmarks trembled in awe as if recognizing their successor."
Theo raised his head as if gazing into the moon. "Let me give you a story. When the world was created, a big asteroid hit the planet, causing a massive impact that actually shattered the planet into twelve. Meanwhile, this asteroid ended up replacing the planet itself.
"The twelve moons are now locked into this planet, unable to move away anymore. They said, 'People of the world, we are the true planet. While we have been divided into twelves, come and take our test so that you can inherit the true strength of the world.'
"The people don't know what they are trying to say. They build a telescope, they climb the highest peak, they study and create multiple theories, and they still understand nothing.
"Three people gazed at the moons, not really understanding what the moons were trying to say, but they knew that they were walking in a different path. They are not meant to be understood. The moons simply want to be recognized as the true planet. And that's why the moons bestow them the power of the true planet."
Dantalian frowned. "What are you saying? You are simply talking nonsense."
Theo remained silent for a moment before laughing. "Hahaha. I am… talking nonsense?"
Dantalian was baffled. It felt like Theo was taking advantage of their politeness to actually mock them.
But that was when Theo suddenly stomped his right foot and caused the entire mountain to shake violently, the same trembling like what he described before.
Theo simply asked with a smile, "Am I?"
