Omega Summoner

A shriek that is familiar rung through all of Hinomoto but it was only familiar to those who were in Scarlet Mountains. Princess Shini suddenly fell but she was caught by her head guard. The barrier protecting Hinomoto suddenly shuddered as it was attacked.

"Champion Equinox and Envoy Levin Cloud, please help the princess." General Xiang pleaded as Princess Shini is still hurting.

"I thought that problems in the eastern continent should be faced by people of the east?" Adrian answered coldly which shocked the general as they were not this like this.

The general wanted to say something more but they were suddenly countered by the words that were given by their side. Why would the other side agree to help them when they did not want to part with a ceremonial item that is just for decoration. The barrier started to shake even more as Princess Shini started becoming weaker.

"You must help her or else you will not be able to leave this place." Princess Yinyue stated as she cares more for her own sister than her savior.

"Dear princess, let me remind you something. I am a demon not a prisoner!" Adrian stated as he released the aura of an Arch Demon that he was hiding.

The moment Adrian released his aura, the guards that were clutching their weapons and pointed at them suddenly fell down. Adrian did not just use the aura of an Arch Demon but also mixed in the aura of an Asmodian along with it. The aura is so powerful that even the Celestial Emperor that is blessed by the four divine beasts flinched.

"You should not be rude to the guests, my children. Have my teachings not been clear to you to always treat your benefactor with kindness until you have repaid your debt?!" The Celestial Emperor stated with great dignity which made the soldiers calm down a bit.

Adrian noticed that the speech that the Celestial Emperor did manged to cleanse whatever influence he exerted. He knows that the Celestial Emperor is a powerful NPC just from that act alone but he is not powerful enough to trap him in the eastern continent.

"If you want the Yata no Kagami then I shall give it to you. In exchange, please help my daughter recover. Minister of Treasury, go and fetch the item and give it to our guests." The Celestial Emperor decreed.

The ministers and even some of the royal children wanted to make the Celestial Emperor rescind that order but the latter looked at them with great anger. The minster of treasury ran towards the vault where the Yata no Kagami is sealed and returned back with haste. Adrian took the mirror that now looks like a normal bronze mirror.

"Is it filled with sun energy?" Adrian muttered as he raised the Yata no Kagami. The moment he raised the Yata no Kagami, Adrian felt a sliver of energy enter the artifact and some of its effects were shown to him.

==

Item Tier: Epic (Sealed: Mythical) (Degraded)

Item Type: Sealed Artifact of a Sun God

-  Grants the area it is located an ample amount of sunlight.

-  Sealed

-  Sealed

-  Sealed

-  Sealed

Description: It was once another holy artifact, but it was crafted or repurposed to another one. The people that repurposed the holy artifact carved it into a mirror that perfectly reflects the light but it also meant that it lost some of its original power in the process. It has continuously been degrading due to the imperfect way of handling it.

"You now have the Yata no Kagami. Please help the princess." General Xiang stated and Levin Cloud nodded.

"All of those that are not needed must go and stop whatever is messing with the barrier!" The Celestial Emperor decreed as only his immediate family and some ministers were left.

"She is now a bit stable, but the large problem is still present." Levin Cloud stated as he managed to alleviate the pain that the princess is experiencing.

"What must we do in order to save my child?!" The Celestial Emperor asked.

"You must make her rescind the barrier covering the capital. You know that she is fueling this barrier with a part of her very soul. If the barrier gets damaged then her soul will also be part of that destruction. Best case would be she would live without needing that part of her soul. Worst case would be a sleep like death where the chance of waking up is almost non-existent." Levin Cloud stated.

The Celestial Emperor is shocked to learn that the Envoy of the Twin Gods knew of the case that is affecting his child but it would be strange if they did not. They are representatives of the Twin Gods that rules over life and death which means they also have some authority over souls.

"If big sis is using her soul as a catalyst for the barrier then I can sacrifice some of the evil spirits that Uncle Kui sent me. They should be able to replace her soul in the barrier instead of my big sis' soul." Prince Reishi stated.

"That would not be advisable, seventh prince." Adrian interjected.

"Why not!? Evil spirits are also souls and my sister's barrier are made with a part of her soul." Prince Reishi stated.

"If you did that then you also run the risk of having the evil spirits assimilate with the barrier where they can induce their influence in the people of the capital. You cannot stay forever in the capital all the time and supervise the evil spirits every waking minute.

You are controlling evil spirits not being served by them. There is a difference between control and subordination. It also runs the risk of having evil spirits be attracted to the barrier of the imperial capital. The whole imperial capital will become a Kodoku of evil spirits if that happens." Adrian explained which made everyone pale and be horrified.

The whole imperial capital will be infested with evil spirits that devour each other until only one remains. If that evil spirit devours other evil spirits, then they might grow powerful enough to even challenge the divine beasts. In fact, there was an instance like that in the early days of the eastern continent.

"There is no other way to really save her life but making her take down the barrier." Adrian stated.

"If she does that then the people will get hurt instead!" Princess Yinyue stated.

"If you care for the people more then be my guests and let her sacrifice her life. If you love her more then you will do what you can to make sure that she lives." Adrian stated.

"We have what we came here for. Let us go now." Adrian declared but his friends made a face.

"The last time that we gave empathy to others made us land in a difficult position. We should just get out now as we have what we came here for." Adrian muttered to his friends.

"I know that, but it seems very bad to take it and run off. Should we not help them in defending the imperial city at least?" Levin Cloud asked.

"We are also at a time limit. The western continent is barely holding on as well as the players are the only ones slowing the march of the Shadow of Apophis." Adrian stated.

"If that is the case then I shall stay here and help." Peridot stated.

"If she is staying then I will also stay." Levin Cloud stated.

"I will go, and peace out like him." Kabrakan stated but Peridot pinched him on the side.

"Fine! I will stay as well but you have lost all the IOUs that you have on me." Kabrakan stated.

"Ok then. Have fun defending the imperial city. Peace out!" Adrian stated as he suddenly vanished with teleportation.

"He actually did that!" Peridot is in disbelief.

"He did. I already expected it but I thought that he would stay behind." Levin Cloud stated.

"I should have clung to him when I had the chance. You guys could sense that, right? There are twenty enemies with the same aura as that Undead Legion (Jiangshi) that we faced earlier." Kabrakan stated.

"Maybe we should have left as well." Levin Cloud exclaimed but he was also pinched by Peridot.

"Really?!" Peridot asked with a smile that is not a smile.

"I was just kidding but are you sure we will be able to handle this?" Levin Cloud asked.

"Not really." Peridot replied as they headed to the front gate.

Adrian appeared back at the Temple of the Sun and handed the Yata no Kagami to the Sun God Ra. The Sun God Ra is pleased with the relic that was made from the Sun Stone. He started to imbue it once more with his powers and the bronze looking mirror suddenly cracked. A small sun then appeared on the hands of the Sun God Ra which he just ate.
