Omega Summoner

"It seems that something has happened to Mt. Thunder. It seems that something has fundamentally changed in terms of the severity of the storm and lightning it calls upon. Reports of a black crystal that suddenly appeared in a certain area of the mountain is also given to us." Nuwa stated as she told the reason for the meeting.

When Nuwa mentioned the black stone, the demon guest that they have suddenly averted his gaze. Nuwa also looked at Peridot and she as well averted her gaze. The Dragon Lady could easily tell that these two are hiding something because the demon does not dare to look at her straightly even when he had no qualms doing it earlier.

"You two are hiding something from me and it seems that you know of this black rock that I speak off. I suddenly remembered that you were heading to Mt. Thunder when you departed here earlier.

Tell me or else I will not be able to protect you if all of the eastern continent's powerhouse were to hold you accountable for this mysterious circumstance." Nuwa stated as she is concerned that her 'daughter' might have been roped by this playful and mischievous demon.

"Ain't my fault." Adrian stated as he headed to the door sliding one foot at a time.

"Hold it right there." Nuwa stated as the ground beneath the floor suddenly trapped Adrian. The stone tiles used in the room are now fractured from the spell that is used.

"I am not going to pay for that." Adrian stated as he looked at the cracked floor. He could not point to it because only his face to the neck is not covered by the earth attribute spell.

"Master, let me explain. The Qilin that I have obtained that you are very proud of actually came from Mt. Thunder." Peridot stated as both her and the Qilin explained what happened.

"To think that a Qilin is hiding under our noses. If the other houses knew then they would have claimed ownership of Mt. Thunder right away. No wonder that noisy elder from another house came here demanding compensation." Nuwa stated as even she did not know of this tale.

"If master does not know then the Qilin must have been sealed for a long time." Peridot stated but Adrian had a different outlook.

"Or she just did not bother to care what other people do in their free time. I have been here for almost a day, and I could see that the Ryujin have inquisitive and sharp minds, but they take long breaks. No wonder their research takes years to complete." Adrian stated which made Nuwa have an expression of shock.

"To be able to notice that means tat you have great investigative wisdom. No wonder the demons let you act freely despite being a stickler to their guarding duties." Nuwa stated as she knows what the demons do as a job.

"Is there no other way to release the Qilin from her body?" Nuwa asked as she is not an expert when it comes to magic that uses the soul as a catalyst.

"The only way for the bonding to be broken is that two parties must be in mutual agreement, but the master holds more dominance in the relationship. Also, if someone rips the Qilin out of her body then she will most likely die as it is equivalent to ripping a part of someone's soul." Adrian stated.

"Do you know the process that is needed to rip it apart from her body?" Nuwa asked.

"The only plausible situation that I could think of is that someone must reverse the process that I used. If that is the only issue, then the Qilin will never be taken from her. Even if they forcefully rip the Qilin from her soul, their souls will undergo the revival process at the same time." Adrian stated.

"Reverse the process then she must never set foot in Mt. Thunder until the array rejects her due to her power level. Since you two have come clean, I will tell the elders that you have conquered the Qilin using both of your strengths.

This would make those that are opposing me to shut up but the case with the stone is a different matter. We cannot go inside that array due to the restrictions, but I must know the real power of that stome. I have heard reports of strange things happening in Mt. Thunder." Nuwa stated as she needed to know everything in order for her to protect the two from being targeted.

"What kinds of things?" Adrian asked as he is curious because he is tasked with gathering date for this black shard.

"You mean you used an unknown material to perform a great spell that etches another soul to someone?" Nuwa asked as she did not think that someone would be so reckless.

"Yes." Adrian replied casually but intense bloodlust could be felt from Nuwa's stares.

"Do you have another piece of that black shard? I might be able to see through it and identify it. It managed to change the terrain and make some monsters evolve despite having no proper habitat." Nuwa asked as she is curious what this black shard is.

"Unfortunately, I was only given one as the others are still radiating miasma. Do not worry as it will not have a detrimental effect to the mountain that much. That stone shard is more proficient in distributing power to Mt. Thunder which the Qilin sometimes ignores to do." Adrian stated.

"Also, I sacrificed my arm to transfer the Qilin to her body. A little respect would be appreciated." Adrian stated which made Nuwa slightly embarrassed as he is correct after all.

"He is right, Master. I will never get Moksha without his help. He has no ill will and that stone came from a god so it must have great capacity for energy." Peridot stated.

"No wonder the lightning no longer becomes erratic outside the area near Mt. Thunder.." Nuwa muttered.
