chapter 1008: the sealed legacies of the tuatha de danann [part 2]
ethan found himself falling into a trance.
the moment the beam of light that shot out from areadbhair hit his chest, he felt drowsy, and his consciousness seemed to slip away from him.
when he regained his senses, he found himself standing on a battlefield.
loud explosions, roars, dying screams, and the sounds of weapons clashing against each other assaulted his ears, making him stagger.
"calm your heart, beloved."
hearing a voice that made him feel as if a refreshing breeze was passing over him, ethan soon recovered his bearings.
"i know you don't want to fight, but we have no other choice," a young lady, who looked familiar and unfamiliar at the same time, said with a calm expression on her face.
a few seconds later, ethan finally figured out what made the lady look familiar.
she looked very much like a grown up version of chloe!
one of the reasons he didn't recognize her right away was due to the fact that her hair was as red as pomegranates, giving her a sharper and more gallant presence.
the beautiful lady donned a red robe, holding a staff in her right hand and a glowing stone in her left hand.
a single glance was enough for him to recognize the stone in chloe's hands, which had glowing runic patterns on its surface. it was none other than the stone of destiny, lia fail.
"chin up," chloe said before lightly patting his back as if giving him a slight push. "i'll cover for you, so fight with everything you have."
the stone of destiny glowed brighter, and a golden light covered ethan's body.
he felt a lot stronger, calmer, and more courageous.
suddenly, the spear in his hand blazed with great intensity, its flames almost covering his entire body.
that was how intense the flames were, and he felt how much it was rearing to taste some blood.
"go lonraí an t-ádh ort faoi sholas na ndéithe," chloe said softly,
(a/n: may fortune shine upon you under the light of the gods.)
she then planted her staff on the ground and chanted a spell, giving ethan the power to fly.
with her spell, the young man rose to the sky and joined his compatriots in battle. areadbhair seemed to roar in his hands, asking him to slaughter as many as possible.
the moment ethan came close to the fiendish monsters they were fighting against, he immediately recognized them as the fomorians.
bres.
sensing ethan's gaze land on his body, bres shuddered internally. however, since he was at the very rear of the fomorian army, he believed that he wouldn't need to worry too much about the champion of the tuatha de danann, who had put fear in his heart.
the moment ethan locked his sights on his target, the world seemed to move in slow motion. the barrier that had protected him from the bombardment of spells shattered, leaving him open to the next barrage of spells that were about to descend on his body.
in that world where time seemed to move very slowly, ethan took a step forward.
he moved normally in that world and effortlessly evaded the spells by walking around them.
the sound of a bell seemed to ring in his ears as the flames that covered his body turned
golden white.
the fomorians who didn't know that they were moving so slowly in his world, charged in his direction, weapons drawn to kill.
however, ethan simply swung and thrust his spear, killing the helpless fomorians who
happened to be in front of him.
in his enemy's eyes, he was moving too fast.
in his eyes, they were moving too slowly.
this trance-like state didn't last long, and after nearly half a minute, the world around him
returned to its normal speed.
but that was fine. ethan had already slaughtered his way toward his target until they were
only separated by hundreds of meters.
his eyes glowed with power, and the spear in his hands roared for the death of his enemies.
and this time, areadbhair was no longer able to bend ethan to his will.
this time, the young man had full control of his senses, making him more deadly than before.
suddenly, a one-eyed giant blocked ethan's path.
he immediately recognized this creature because he had seen him after the battle ended between the insect horde that tried to invade midgard.
the monster was none other than the fomorian progenitor, balor, who had assisted bres in
his rebellion to reclaim his former throne and once again make the tuatha de danann suffer
under his rule.
