Omega Summoner - #1748 - 1748 The Power of Ancestral Spirits II

The people of the Land of Yamato could suddenly see spirits of the dead in the area. They thought that they have died but the spirits started to talk to them. Some of the spirits told them that they were their ancestors and that they were incredibly proud of their descendants that would give up their life to protect this place.

“Your highness!” Ina stated as she bowed towards the First Head of the Yamato Family as the others also bowed in respect.

“Raise your head up high my descendants. You have done me proud for protecting the place that I held dear with my beloved. All of you shall be given our aide even if we use all of our karma in order to protect you.” The First Head of the Yamato Family stated.

“Should you do that… all of you will enter the cycle of reincarnation as there is no longer any karma holding you to the paradise lands of the death realms.” Adrian stated which only the dead spirits of heroes could hear.

“We have already prepared ourselves for that. We always wanted a chance to give everything back to our descendants. Did you know that we were incredibly saddened when we could not do nothing when the great fight occurred back then?

If not for the timely sacrifice of karma from my beloved, the soul of the Asmodian would not even activate. It did come with a price but the people that would have died back then were all safe. This is the price that I am willing to pay for putting such a burden on my descendant.” The First Head of the Yamato Family stated as she caressed Yumeko’s face.

Adrian thought why such an event occurred because he knows that the soul fragment of an Asmodian would not easily activate even with the most fervent wish of mortals. They were the first keeper of balance as their very powers could overturn the natural order of things. They were the beings that could actually defy nature without a consequence which is why the Asmodians were the ones that needed to be killed by the invaders back then.

The beloved of the First Head of the Yamato Family must be her husband which is no longer in the heroes. The most likely answer is that the husband of the First Head of the Yamato Family used all of his karma in order to activate the soul fragment of the Asmodian in order to help their descendants. It is even more likely that there were more heroes that sacrificed as using the soul fragment of an Asmodian would need at least twenty given the good karma that they have.

“Since all of you are already prepared to be reborn then I would not stop you. I am the Champion of the Twin Gods, the Shephard of Lost Souls, the Arbiter of the Damned, but I am not the King of Dead Heroes that can dictate on what they do. I am merely a being that is tasked to aide those that have departed even in the afterlife.” Adrian stated.

“Thank you, Champion of the Twin Gods for making sure that our gift would be given to our descendants. Please perform the Rite of Soul Traversal by using all of our good karma.” The First Head of the Yamato Family stated as she raised her hands.

The First Head of the Yamato Family’ hands suddenly shot out a light that went straight to Adrian. It was not just her, but every spirit of the dead made sure to raise their hands as light surged towards the castle. All of the light was the good karma that they have accumulated in all of their life as they asked Adrian to perform the Divine Tier Spell: Rite of Soul Traversal.

“Your wish is my command.” Adrian stated as he told Yumeko that she could now join her parents as she has done her duty.

Adrian started to shed his mortal disguise as he turned into his Netheros Form as Nether Mist started to appear in the entire Land of Yamato. All the monsters that entered the nether mist suddenly started to feel the aversion of entering but they would want the source of power that was emitted earlier. With that kind of power, they would become able to step into the realm of divine beasts.

There were actually ten monsters in the horde that were indeed a step away from being divine beasts as they only needed a few more divine energies in their body. These ten monsters have also unlocked wisdom which meant that they have the same thinking capabilities of a human being. They were the biggest threats that can slip through the barrier that Peridot has created.

Frey and Peridot were still doing fine but Peridot has already sensed these powerful monsters. She would actually announce herself as a Ryujin should they not retreat. If those ten monsters really do actively participate then they would destroy the entire Land of Yamato.

“The only way to stop those then monsters would be to use the prestige of a Ryujin. They would definitely turn tail and run if I use it as we will hunt them down. The only downside is that my location would be compromised as a result which would make me the one being hunted down.” Peridot thought but she made sure to be ready once those ten monsters started to move.

Peridot suddenly felt the movement of five of the ten monsters. She was ready to step up and warn them when a powerful force suddenly exploded from the castle of Yamato. The powerful energy was actually that of the life energy as Aether Dust started to spread even with nether mist in the surroundings.

The five of the ten monsters that moved suddenly stopped as they suddenly felt the increasing energy from the castle. The energy was something that could even stop them which is why they were frozen in their tracks. They retreated immediately to the outskirts as soon as they felt this energy but the monsters that did not have unlocked wisdom charged even further as they thought this was the energy source earlier.

“Follow me my loyal attendants! Help our people with the Beast Tide!” A powerful voice of a woman exploded.

The aether dust combined with the nether mist has started to finally show its influence. The spirits that were only ghostly started to become corporeal. The powerful heroes that once roamed the Land of Yamato has started to materialize in the mortal realm once more.

The one who was commanding all of the ancestral spirits was none other than the First Head of the Yamato Family, Princess Yasha. She wore such intricate yet elegant armor into the battlefield as it was pulled by two Kirins. She wielded a spear with a dragon’s head and charged fearlessly into the beast tide along with the other ancestral spirits. 

The ancestral spirits are already dead which is why they made sure to attack the beast tide without thinking of what would happen to them. The ancestral spirits also made sure to save their living descendants if they were in trouble. The sudden influx of humans made some of the monsters with some intelligence turn tail and run.

The only monsters that were left were those that were hungry for power or has lost their mind due to bloodlust. The culling of the huge beast tide started the moment the ancestral spirits materialized. The land that was covered with a beast tide suddenly started to be covered with the corpses of monsters instead.

The ten monsters that Peridot marked as dangerous also retreated as they felt the power of the First Head of the Yamato Family, Princess Yasha. The moment the ten monsters saw two Kirins dragging the dragon chariot that Princess Yasha was riding, the ten monsters scattered as they knew that being was not someone they could contend with.

The ten monsters are suddenly thankful that they did not harm any denizens of Yamato or else they would have been hunted down by that fearsome being. They actually saw a monster that is close to their power level get cleaved in half by Princess Yasha. The ten were already warry of the House God Shirohe but Princess Yasha made them scared beyond belief.

Some of the ten monsters even thought to become House Gods of the Land of Yamato since they have witnessed the power of Princess Yasha. They suddenly have a dream that they might ascend to a divine beast if they spend some time in this land. The most perceptive of the ten monsters could clearly feel that the current House God was near in becoming a divine beast which is why they might even replace Shirohe should she finally ascend.

“Ruby Eye Blue Serpent! Leave or be executed like the rest of the beasts. I shall spare you since you have not harmed any of my descendants.” Princess Yasha stated.
