Chapter 829 Tremor In The Castle

While talking to his maids, there was one thing that was clear to everybody from the get go.

It didn't need to be said, but this black puppy in Sylvia's hands was definitely not an ordinary one.

From getting saved by a Supreme Rank Witch to having the village wiped out for their actions, things were far too weird for them to be a mere coincidence.

Sylvia was an indifferent lady and her wiping out a bunch of mortals was totally unexpected. Yet, she did it. This was proof that this dog definitely had some influence on her.

To influence a Supreme Rank even indirectly, this really was a big deal.

Not to mention, Ren was staring at him ever since he arrived without even blinking, showing a reaction he had never shown before.

Nobody spoke on this matter, but everybody was aware of it.

It was also decided here that this puppy will be called Zen and since Sylvia was the one who found him, it would be her taking care of him.

Lith then took his leave and went to the meditation room to cultivate.

It was yet another few weeks of boring cultivation with Lith fixing irregularities between his elemental energies.

One thing Lith has noticed during each ascension was that he was always lacking on Wind, Time, and Earth elemental energies. He would rarely ever use them and that was the result of him having less attainment in them.

Attainment was everything and that was the bitter truth of the world. Even if one was using a dual cultivation technique to ascend, they needed to comprehend the elements.

Everything required some form of understanding of the elements be it artifacts or even martial arts.

Speaking of martial arts, Lith realized that he had barely trained in any form of martial arts.

There were a few that his sister taught him when he was young and a few from the inheritances he got, but other than that, there were barely any arts he cultivated in.

A need never arose because Lith was overpowered as is while using spells.

But, he definitely needed to learn some martial arts as well to balance things out. What if he someday was stranded in a place where there was no elemental energies? Or if his own spiritual power ran out?

Martial arts would come in handy at this place.

Thus, feeling the need to improve, Lith decided to go get some martial arts books from the library and train.

It took him half a day to pick the books and in total, he had chosen three books.

One arts was about defense, the other about attack, and the third one was about bringing out one's full potential.

The third book was the most fascinating one since it helped in maximizing everything Lith possessed.

For now, these three arts were enough and Lith went to go train immediately.

…..

Some place far away.

In a dark chamber, flickering lamps started appearing one by one, illuminating the place with an yellowish-orange hue.

As the chamber was well lit, multiple figures wearing brown cloaks and holding a staff could be seen in the room.

A ton of runes could be seen everywhere in the chamber as well, with the most prominent one being etched right within a mighty circle on the ground.

"This is our last resort. We must perform the summoning." A cloaked figure stated in his hoarse voice.

"Chief, it could go horribly wrong." Someone suggested in a worried tone.

"Everything is going horribly wrong as is. The invasion will occur soon and we are in a dire state of crisis." The chief stated.

The other figures sighed hearing that.

One of the figures stepped ahead and asked, "Chief, what if the hero we've summoned refuses to be on our side?"

The chief calmly responded, "Then, it is our fate to perish. There is nothing we can do."

Tired sighs could be heard again.

The people in the room weren't panicking upon knowing that, but really tired of how helpless they all were in this situation. There really was nothing they could do other than perform this summoning and call for the revered hero.

The hero was their last hope. Their world was on the verge of collapse and such helplessness would make anyone who has lost their way feel tired.

The chief, understanding the melancholy of the room, said, "Fret not, for we'll try our best to have the hero on our side. The first step we will take is by not letting the summoning take a natural course, rather, it would be…"

The chief began with his explanation, stating a few important things to this group that he hadn't mentioned before.

This summoning circle was set to have the summon right here in this chamber. However, with a little bit of tweaks here and there, they could change this position.

The second thing was that this summoning circle was never going to make the hero arrive in his full strength.

The hero would be greatly weakened upon arrival and as this was a new world, he would need to adapt to this place to have his strength back.

This meant that the hero would need to spend time with the people of this world and in this manner, he would interact and get to know them.

This could provide a major boost and increase the odds of him being on their side.

Other than this, there wasn't much they could do.

As the chief finished with his explanation, the other's had some hope rekindle within them. However, it wasn't much because they were scared to even feel hope.

If their hope was crushed even a single time again, they really would break. Being fully aware of this, they didn't get too excited or happy in regards to this summoning.

"Let's start the summoning then, chief." One of the figures said.

The chief nodded his head lightly and raising the staff in his hand, said, "Glory to the Runes."

…..

Royal Castle, Nightingale.

"Hah!"

SLAM!

"Hah!"

SLAM!

A big punching bag was being kicked and slammed on the ground by Lith.

The punching bag was equipped with spells that made it extremely resistant to getting kicked or thrown around.

The amount of force required to slam it down was astronomically high. The punching bag would literally not topple unless Lith used at least 50% of his overall strength.

Lith was currently in a pair of white boxers, standing barefoot with his upper body being topless as well.

His toned muscles were bulging with each slam and kick while his tied hair swayed with his movements.

It had been more than a year since Lith had begun practicing the martial arts and the effects of that were astounding.

He felt great with each move he mastered and this thrill got him to a new high that made him further want to practice these arts.

Lith was currently in a training facility made just for him to practice martial arts.

It was in the inner ring and having a custom made facility like this was just one of the multiple perks he possessed for being the Prince himself.

While continuing on with his training, there was a sudden tremor that shook Lith, followed by violent space and time fluctuations appearing one after another.

"Huh?"

Just as Lith was about to move towards these fluctuations, Luna appeared right beside him.

There was a serious look on her face and she said, "Your Highness, you need to come see this."

Saying so, she placed her on Lith's shoulders and vanished from the training facility.

Lith's vision darkened for a second, but right then, he found himself standing in one of the courtyards of the inner ring.

There, right in front of his very eyes, were bright blue arcane symbols tracing themselves in a circular path in midair.

"Awooooo!"

Lith heard a soft howl and turning to the source, saw Zen, Sylvia's black puppy screaming at the blue portal.

There was a glowing red symbol on the puppy's forehead as he howled and what it was trying to do, nobody had much clue about it.

Sylvia, having her brows knitted and a worried look surfacing her face, saw that Lith had appeared.

As she saw him, she somewhat panicked and said, "Your Highness, I apologize—"

"It's okay." Lith cut her off right away and didn't let her continue.

He knew that she might be thinking that it was her fault that this thing had happened. She also might be trying to protect this puppy from being executed for his audacity to cause trouble in the castle.

Lith was well aware of who was innocent and what could be happening with just a simple glance.

Neither he nor any other person in the Royal Family were unreasonable, so he didn't scold or say anything to Sylvia.

Instead, Lith said, "Tell me what exactly happened here in complete detail."

Sylvia nodded lightly and replied, "It all started with…"
