Chapter 234: Palkus’ Journey! Pause
Today was the day Palkus closed 23 years of age, and it was also the glorious day he had been waiting for. Today was the day he would evolve into something greater, into an SS rank.
Today, was the day he would seal his fate with his beloved, and today, was also the day his journey in the dwarfelven continent would end.
Palkus was now back to the mountain where he proposed to Emily, ring in hand.
He was going to evolve here, and unlike Draco, he was in no need to sleep to evolve, after all, it was going to be a quick transformation and not a complete evolution.
While the former had to change his entire race and wake up to become something completely different, Palkus just had to accept the change coming towards him, strengthening his being in one fell swoop. And that's all.
However, this process might be a little dangerous. The after-effects might be something that the city he was in wouldn't be able to handle, and thus, as a little precaution, the young man flew to the mountain and into its skies before he called upon his laws, and formed a little veil around himself.
"Break for me!" He shouted.
*Crack* *Crack*
Like glass, his body had cracks all over it. White in shine and spreading all around his body.
*Crash*
The cracks turned into fragments and broke for Palkus to come out of such a transformation… no different from how he was before. Or at least that's how it looked.
"Let's see my conditions." What was more important at this point, was to know his next steps. Well, Draco had already set his journey so he kind of knew where he would go next, but, he didn't know yet what exactly it was he had to do in said place.
"Reach max level in 1 week, Consider it done. Hmm? Huh? Become the Vampire Progenitor? Well, that's weird. What else… Huh?
Become the Phoenix Emperor?" The first condition he had was something so easy he could do in one day with his XP multiplier gifted by Draco, however, the second and third conditions were the hardest ones.
Palkus had to fight and overpower two enemies of unprecedented glory dating back before Draco even put his feet in these lands. The vampire progenitor was one of the stronger EX-ranks out there and the young man had to beat him up and take his places, and the Phoenix Emperor… Wasn't even a concept.
The ruling phoenix was an empress, thus, if he wanted to become the emperor…
"If Emily opposes, then my approach will be different." The only way he could become the phoenix emperor was by marrying the crown phoenix princess, and he was in no way planning on forming a harem.
He loved Emily sincerely, and if he didn't need to, why would he go on catching every girl he set his eyes on? If anything, not all girls loved him, and not every girl even caught his fancy.
Well, he could always destroy that rule and become the phoenix emperor.
Well, this was something he would think about later. For now, there was something much more important.
"So… what's the difference?" He asked himself. He swept his senses around his body and tried to feel the differences. And he immediately noticed a couple changes.
First of all, gomens had a known ability to always adapt to the environment they were in and when they evolved, they would surpass whatever foes or challenges they faced.
In Palkus' case, the hardest challenges he had were in alchemy, smithing, and the fight he had against the nightwatcher.
Thus, his mind was drowned with intricate epiphanies related to his profession. Right now, Palkus could make artifacts, pills, and potions multiple times better than the ones he made previously with better proficiency, faster, and with better technique.
Aside from that, his body became more accustomed to laws, able to handle them better and even fight with them with more proficiency.
He did notice one thing, however, and he immediately made the connection to the nightwatcher. His light law affinity had grown stronger, stronger than all other laws. This was because the nightwatcher had a fatal weakness for light.
This was but an example of how gomen evolved. Aside from that, he was just stronger, his combat power multiple times his previous one, and some of his enhancements had evolved alongside a couple of his skills.
Nothing too surprising.
So, the young man went down the mountain, the next day was the day he and his beloved had been waiting for. Two years had passed and the promised date was here.
The wedding was held the 5th of April, a day after his birthday. It was something he and Emily spent a lot of time meticulously planning.
The wedding venue was in an estate they rented in Saint city because they loved it so much. The guests they invited will be teleported alongside them today with the help of Valentine, the guild mistress who was also invited.
The 'Thunder Strike' was also invited alongside Azeroth, the instructor, the alchemists, the dwarf blacksmiths, Emily's friends, and other friends PAlkus made along the way.
Emiliana and Amy had the important role of going there first to make sure everything was ready. Palkus and Emily went there after and the next day, everybody arrived.
Luxury carriages, fancy clothings, and a large estate in the very core of saint city.
Everything was ready to make sure Emily got what she deserved in the best day of her life.
And the best day it was. Nothing wrong happened and everybody had a blast. They ate the finest food and drank the finest drinks. They danced, laughed, and talked. Nothing was left undone as the wedding went on for a long, stretched 3 days of pure fun and giggles.
People slept all around, children made friends with each other, and connections that would go on a long way were formed that day.
And everything was finished with Antita watching everything from the sidelines with a little stealth.
*Munch* *Munch*
'Damn you, brother. Not even inviting your cute little sister to your wedding.' The black-haired girl who was wearing a long black dress was here the entire duration of the wedding after catching the info that her brother was getting married.
She was only 12 years old, but she received special permission from Draco to attend…
Or did she?
'Come back.'
'Tehe.'
