Chapter 83 Inheritance Of The Fallen Empire
"Yes, Royal Advisor!" The mage nodded and flew down. He raised his staff and gathered energy within stars, and blasted every enemy.
"This can't be!" Kashimir grimaced. All of his forces that were in the offensive were wiped out. The beam then redirected to the ships that fired at the throne and destroyed them.
"Retreat, Everyone!" Kashimir yelled.
"Don't pursue them." Skeirom told his army that wanted to slaughter the retreating forces. "Commander Asmigus, order our forces to assault the border planets and galaxies of the Saikeha Faction. Ask for the neighboring Quintentia Faction to help us stop the Esveidon Shuttle Fleet from aiding Saikeha."
"Affirmative." The commander behind him nodded and left.
"And now we wait." Skeirom looked at the now glowing throne with anticipation.
Behind Matthias, dragons upon dragons materialized and flew to encircle him.
Matthias form then transformed into a bright golden light, and was cloaked in a black and gold rimmed imperial rob with the symbol of a distorted hollow sun adorned in the front and back.
Matthias' figure slowly stood up and exuded an incredibly powerful and dense aura of majesty.
His eyelids then slowly opened, revealing the incredibly deep and unfathomable eyes of a ruler. There was no coldness, only an oppressing amount of majesty.
A crown that is a meter tall that is colored black and gold then manifested on his head. A huge purple gem adorned the center of the crown, with four red gems surrounding it.
Looking at the majestic figure, Skeirom grimaced. Asileius gaped his mouth wide open. "Did he tap upon.." Skeirom stuttered.
"..An inheritance of an Empire!" Asileius nodded. "Only a renowned Empire can possess an inheritance across the Cosmos. What inheritance did he tap on?"
The four people turned their look at Matthias and bowed with respect, the dignified man straightened up and looked at him with reverence. He then gazed upon the people below, "I, Cane Maxwell, proudly heralds the awakening of our New Monarch!"
They all knelt and greeted with power, "Greetings to the New Monarch! Greetings to the New Sun Devouring Monarch!"
"Is it weird that I don't know anything about any Sun Devouring Territories?" Skeirom said confusedly.
"It isn't weird." Asileius replied absentmindedly, ".. Because the Sun Devouring Empire has long since been forgotten."
"Then why did its inheritance appear here?" Skeirom asked.
"I don't know either." He shook his head.
"Do you know anything about the Sun Devouring Empire, Elder Xandum?" Skeirom inquired.
"The Empire existed 3000 years ago. It came from an Earth inside the Primordial Galaxy. The Empire was incredibly strong, created by the First Emperor of Huaxia, Qin Shihuang. That man was an incredibly talented and wise man and leader. He led his mortal army and swept through the Immortal Territories, successfully establishing his sovereignty over an area that is 20 times larger than his old world.
He established his Empire and named it The Sun Devouring Empire, successfully irking countless domains and territories inside the Human Continent. They were besieged countless times, but the enemies were always unsuccessful.
But Time ravaged the Empire. Countless noble families corrupted the internal structure of the empire. The Sun Devouring Empire collapsed after the death of the Second Monarch.
The outsiders took advantage of the weakness and destroyed the borderlands of the empire. It took the four ancestors of the four loyal clans to stop the assault from the enemy forces.
The Sun Devouring Empire was then known to the outside world as the Devoured Kingdom, putting shame on the Empire. The once 20 Earths-large territory turned into a ¾ world territory size.
Time passed. They are now currently a no-name Kingdom to the vast lands of the Immortal Territories. What's more, I heard that the insides of it are still as corrupted as ever." Asileius shook his head in disappointment.
"How did you know all of this, Elder Xandum? I thought they were forgotten by everyone?" Skeirom asked curiously.
"Qin Shihuang's third son, the Third Prince Yin Guang, was a good friend of mine. Unlike the other princes, he didn't like to assume the throne, and with his eldest brother, the Crown Prince and Second Monarch Yin Tianlong, he wouldn't even have the chance to compete.
He roamed the Cosmos and once saved me when I was about three hundred years old from Cosmic Beasts. From then on, we became friends." He smiled.
"So, will Esteemed God Matthias assume leadership on that weakened territory?"
"I think so." Asileius nodded.
"Are you the Four Authorities?" Matthias asked authoritatively.
"Yes, Great Monarch, Your Majesty." Cane replied, "I am Cane Maxwell, your strategist and advisor, Minister and Steward of your territory."
"I am Wang Long, Your Majesty Great Monarch. I am the Grand General of The Realm." The man wielding a spear spoke.
"I am Wang Xuan, Your Majesty Great Monarch. I am the Protector of The Realm." The man carrying a shield cupped his hands and bowed.
"I am Sigien Brunhilde, Your Majesty Great Monarch. I am the Master of The Great Arts, your personal Royal Archlord Magus." The last person with a mage's staff bowed gentlemanly.
"Very well. After fixing my matters here, we will journey to the Immortal Territories." Matthias nodded and descended. He looked around and frowned, "What happened here? Who are you?" He asked Skeirom with wariness.
"Greetings, Esteemed Monarch. I am Skeirom Kadahan, the Faction Leader of The Galactic Sky Faction and the Ruling God of Andromeda." Skeirom bowed respectfully.
"What happened here? What's with the mess?" He asked.
They went silent. Matthias saw the Angels and Demons and narrowed his eyes, "What happened here that even prompted Nuwa to use the Call of The Ruler? On that matter, where's Nuwa?"
"Master.." Asileius sighed, "..A neighboring faction wanted to conquer your galaxy when you began your Ascension. Nuwa summoned the army to defend you. We managed to hold them down, but Nuwa was unfortunate.."
Hearing his explanation, Matthias felt something bad, "What happened to Nuwa?" He asked with urgency.
"..died." Asileius replied, "Nuwa was killed by a commanding officer of the enemy faction."
Boom!
A huge pressure descended on everyone. Asileius and Skeirom fortunately lifted the pressure with much difficulty.
