Chapter 182 - XIX Dragon Maiden And The Purple Ray-Gunner

Knowing he has been seen, Elijah landed on the ground and walked forward while applauding.

"Good, but how did you know it was me?" At this point, Elijah retracted his wings as Misty and Destiny landed right next to him. The female in yellow laughed and raised the sword before she spoke, "This sword has been one of our most valuable treasures for generations and no one has been able release it's hidden power. I'm not the type of fool who would believe this change has been induced by me, which means you are the one that released the power."

"Yes, it was me. However I suppose we can skip formalities, I must understand what is happening right now. I heard there's also people after your sister right? Let me take care of it for a second." 

[I need you two to do something, search for a female fleeing from a group of grey-clothed man and save.] Elijah closed his eyes and sent his thoughts towards Aura and Stormy. A couple dozen minutes later, two winged-females carrying a young woman with a large box on her back and several children arrived.

After they gathered, Elijah had a long conversation with them and learned a few things. The demon tribe has started multiple attacks on all the other tribes at the same time, only three tribes remained while two surrendered to the demon emperor. When everything was supposed to be lost, a beautiful woman with huge dragon wings, a long and sharp tail, bright eyes and claw than could rip anything apart together with a purple-haired child that could shoot powerful light rays that could turn everything into ashes appeared and started fighting on the human's side, she was known as the Dragon Maiden and was the idol in the hearts of every human in the muddy swamp while the boy was known as the Purple Ray-Gunner. He also heard that tomorrow there will be a large battle with the participation of the demon kings and most of their tribe against the Dragon Maiden and the Human Tribes. It was easy to know who the Dragon Maiden and the Purple Ray-Gunner were. He also knew that more than twenty years have passed since the Tri-Disaster. When they finished, it was pretty dark already and Elijah set up a camp before stepping inside a tent and lay down a defensive barrier around the tent.

"I can't let anyone knows about this." Inside the tent, Elijah took a small miniature spaceship. Observing it clearly, nearly invisible marks and lines could be seen all around the small object but what was surprising was that the spaceship was a mixture of organic and synthetic. Inspecting with his spiritual force, he saw a strange liquid flowing inside numerous veins hidden inside the dark and glossy material its outer body was made of. It was one of the rarest models in the Origin era, and it could be said these types were bio-constructed and raised until maturity rather than built. With highly efficient intelligence and a body that could grow, the exterior was made of a mixture of organic materials and spiritual metals, this was an artifact that could cultivate and become more powerful than any ordinary celestial.

As for this in your hands, it seems to be in the middle of its infancy. However this was what Elijah thought to be strange as with the time it had, this thing was supposed to be close to maturity. Elijah suddenly stopped, he thought of something that could explain why this was happening.

"The Soul core has been damaged!" With the soul core damaged, the main component and the source of the artifact's artificial spirit, this ancient origin artifact could only be used as a spaceship. 

"I'm sorry." Elijah bowed to the small thing two times before opening its entrance and stepping inside.

...

An unknown time latter, Elijah appeared out of thin air before sounds of steps outside his tent attracted his attention.

"Who is it?"

"It's me and my sister. We wanted to talk in private." Two voices, one soft and one more timid replied from outside the tent.

"Come in." Elijah let them enter and they immediately knelt before him the moment they saw his face.

"We want to give our thanks for saving us this time and that one many years ago." From the infatuated look in their eyes, Elijah knew what could happen if this continued and interrupted the two of them.

"No, it is nothing. The only reason I'm here is to finished my mission of slaying the demon tribe.As for the creator of this world, I have some guesses about his identity but it is better for you to not know."

"We understand, but we still want to give something..."The female in yellow said in a humble manner before turning to her sister who took the box she was carrying on her back and offered to him.

"Well..." Elijah took the box from her hand. It was heavier than what he thought it was and when he was going to look what was inside.

He saw many things, from old ceremonial daggers to necklaces, jewelry and even pieces of armor like helmets. But the most surprising thing was the markings in all these things and the scary origin energy hidden inside all those objects.

'F**k! It is all origins?! So many origins... I will be more than happy if those origins can release just half of that sword's energy even if they are old enough to break after just one use.' Noticing his expression, the two sisters smiled to each other.

"Our tribe is not the only one to have treasure boxes like this. It is just that no one even take those out as we can't use it like you do, I guess only the creator or someone similar can do it." Hearing what they said, Elijah thought it would be good to pay a visit to all the tribes to see if he could find more of these old origins.

"Good. As your sword broke, you can take this two-handed sword I made while the two of must care at least one of those origins to the battle tomorrow. Let's wait until the demonic tribes are weakened and finish them all at once."
