Talent Awakening: Draconic Overlord Of The Apocalypse

Chapter 311: A Strange Memory And The Omnipotent Elixer



The Overlord's heirloom pulsed with overwhelming mana, granting Alister one final transformation.

His form burned with celestial light, his body kept on changing, merging the powers of all past Overlords.

"AGHHHHHH!"

He roared as he let out a breath of radiant multicolored light at the darkness.

But even that wasn't enough.

The darkness loomed closer, whispering wounds that made Alister feel uneasy.

"Even the greatest Overlords fall."

"#####."

FIZZLE

The memory splintered.

In the next instant, he was already impaled, drowning in the sea of darkness as he felt his body being slowly consumed.

In those moments, as he stared out into the night sky, he managed a chuckle. "I'm sorry, Mar'Garet... I guess... I won't be making it back home."

His vision slowly faded, but before it did, he heard a statement, a voice similar to his yet different, but this one was clear, almost as if it were whispered into his very soul.

"Are you going to try again?"

"Only to fail?"

"At this point, you will go down as the Overlord of failure."

"Remember, you are only one half of our whole."

"Until you let us become one again, victory will forever be beyond your grasp."

"Let me out... brother..."

"To rid yourself of darkness, you need greater darkness."

FIZZLE

The memory ended.

Alister gritted his teeth, his hands clutching his temples as the storm of memories began to calm into clarity. Slowly, he straightened his posture.

Terra took a cautious step closer, her voice filled with concern. "My lord, are you all right?" Alister managed a soft sigh, with a strained, contemplative expression on his face. "I'm fine," he calmly replied, though his mind remained clouded by the memories.

Terra raised an eyebrow, clearly unconvinced. "Are you sure about that? You seem... distant." Alister nodded, forcing a small smile. "Really, I'm fine. You don't need to worry."

His gaze shifted to the items floating in the space around him, his eyes lingering on the ring. His mind replayed the words that had echoed in his vision, each one gnawing at him.

'I have a brother? Part of a whole? What is that even supposed to mean?'

'The more I learn about my past, the less sense it seems to make...'

'And that memory... It was completely different from the one where the darkness asked to make a deal...'

'Different lives? Have I died to the darkness twice? Perhaps even more?'

Terra, sensing the shift in his thoughts, spoke again. "My lord, something is weighing on your mind. What did you see?"

Alister's gaze hardened slightly, his eyes narrowing as he glanced back at the ring. "We can talk about it later."

"For now, let's focus on the creation of the Omnipotent Elixir."

With that, Alister turned his attention back to the swirling glyphs and the task at hand, pushing the unsettling thoughts to the back of his mind... for now.

Alister's hand reached out and retrieved the Overlord's heirloom from where it had hovered, carefully placing it back into his inventory. He turned to Terra. "We have everything we need now. You may proceed."

Terra gave a firm nod, her glasses glinting as she adjusted them. "Understood, my lord." With a determined expression, Terra focused her attention on the four items laid out before her.

The Ethereal Moonstone, glowing with a soft, silver light; the Phoenix feather; the vial of sap from the World Tree; and the heart crystal of a true dragon.

She began by drawing a series of glyphs in the air, the symbols shimmering as they floated around her, each one representing a different aspect of the elixir's creation.

As the last glyph settled into place, the air around her became thick with her mana, crackling.

Terra took a deep breath, her hands now hovering over the items. She closed her eyes, drawing on the deeper aspect of the ingredients. She could feel the aura of the items resonating with her own, amplifying them.

Slowly, she began channeling her mana, feeding it into the items.

The Ethereal Moonstone began to glow brighter, its light growing in intensity as Terra's mana flowed into it.

She whispered a quiet incantation, and the moonstone responded, shifting its form, becoming fluid in her hands.

With graceful control, she guided it into the Phoenix feather, the two items merging seamlessly, their powers intertwining.

Next, she moved to the vial of sap from the World Tree. Her dragon eyes focused on it as she weaved some glyphs into it, and it began glowing with a faint, aurora-like light, allowing her to see the essence of the sap in its purest form.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

With a wave of her hand, the liquid came out of the vial.

She released a steady stream of mana, coaxing the sap to flow, its power beginning to meld

with the moonstone and feather.

The sap, rich with nature's power, began to shimmer with vibrant green hues, bringing a new

layer to the mixture.

Finally, Terra reached for the heart crystal from the true dragon.

Carefully, she placed the crystal into the mixture, its energy surging as it connected with the other elements. The bond was instantaneous and almost explosive, as some parts of the liquid were forced to separate, but Terra brought them back together.

The crystal's power flooded the concoction with a dragon's immense strength.

The glyphs around her swirled faster, their symbols glowing brighter as the components

began to merge.

Terra's eyes narrowed with intense concentration, her mana flowing faster, more forcefully, as she shaped the elixir's final form.

The air around her crackled with electricity, and for a brief moment, it seemed as if the entire space around her vibrated, resonating with the elixir's creation.

Slowly, the swirling mixture of light, heat, vitality, nature, and dragon's strength coalesced into a single, radiant cosmic-like liquid.

Taking in a deep blue hue with white star-like sparkles inside of it, perhaps representing the cosmos, and its nature of omnipotence indeed... an embodiment of all the powers that had gone into it.
