Legendary Traveler: By Earning Progress Points I will Become Supreme!-Chapter 188: The Thurston Family Flume (2)

The moment Aoni's bloodied palm made contact with the Golden Flume, there was not only a bright flash of light but a booming HUM, which rattled every fiber of his being.

HhhhHHhhhHHhhHhUUUUuummmMMmmmM!

"The FUCK?" Anthony screamed as he rushed forward to try and pry his little brother away from the Flume.

However, no matter how hard he pulled on Aoni's hand, it was almost as if he'd been fused to it, causing Ant to panic and shield his eyes with one arm.

"Shit shit shit," He murmured in panic, eyes darting around the room for anything resembling a crowbar that would aid him in breaking the contact between his younger brother and the artifact.

Meanwhile, as Anthony was in full meltdown mode, worried about something happening, Aoni was in a world of his own.

From the instant the bright flash blinded him, Aoni felt the familiar transfer of mystical power draining from his arm into the Flume before cycling the artifact and returning to his body.

It didn't hurt or anything like that; if anything, it kind of just…itched, but Aoni found himself unable to fully focus on the sensation coursing through his body in a circuit and instead was reading line after line of pop-ups appearing in front of his eyes.

| Would you like to Link this territory to the Terra Bound Genealogical Flume? |

'Uh…sure, link it.' Unsure of what else to say but quick on the take, Aoni scanned through the prompts and acknowledged what was happening; although it was a bit out of his expectations, he understood what was happening.

It was a similar process to when he first set up his Flume on Genovia, only in reverse and without a long string of gibberish chanting.

"Ohhh…no… ANTHONY, I NEED ENERGIA CRYSTALS NOW!" No sooner did the words leave his lips than Aoni felt a gut-wrenching suction form between himself and the Flume as he tore his eyes away from the notifications and frantically searched the room for his older brother.

Fortunately, since he had been out of it for some time, the situation in the basement had changed, and when he turned to look for help, he was met by the worried faces of all the Thurston Family Travelers.

"Take what you need," Stepping forward and speaking calmly, Jason held out a bag filled to the brim with Energia Crystals in every shape, size, and grade…well under 3-Stars, that is.

Not one to stand on ceremony, and knowing time was of the essence, Aoni dropped Vestr onto the ground and stabbed his hand into the bag of Energia Crystals before closing his eyes and willing the stored power within the crystals to surge into his body.

Inexperienced in Crystal Absorption and in way over his head, Aoni didn't have the attention span to read through the hundreds of new notifications popping up one after another in the corner of his vision and focused entirely on draining the contents of the bag as quickly as possible, a task which proved quite simple.

Think of it as if Aoni's body were a leaky faucet; right now, the slight trickle of water dripping out needed to fill a massive tub, and if it didn't, the WHOLE HOUSE that was Aoni's body would be set on fire.

It's a cheap metaphor, sure, but it's basically a life-or-death situation. If the Lad couldn't fill the tub fully and dump it onto the fire, he was done, gonzo, dead, sucked dry without any means of survival.

With caution long since thrown to the wind, time passed, seconds turned into minutes, until eventually, there was a second bright flash of light, and the Flume's humming died down.

Reading through the last line of text, Aoni finally collapsed onto his ass, gasping for breath and staring up at the gemlike…Sapphire Stone Ring.

"Holy shit…guess I broke that record…" Blinking several times and suddenly aware that several sets of eyes were staring at him, bewildered, Aoni robotically turned his head to the side and met the faces of his family.

"Wow…" Breaking the silence was Charlotte. Sure, she, like every other traveler in the Thurston Family, knew that linking a territory to the Family Flume would cause some changes to it, but never in her wildest dreams did she think it would skip Emerald and go directly to Sapphire from Gold.

"Ahhhhh BABBY BROTHER THAT WAS AMAZING!" Rushing forward like a speeding freight train, Clara tackled Aoni and pulled his face into her chest while planting kisses all over the top of his head.

"Fuck Ahh Ahh SAVE ME, THE SHE BEAST IS TRYING TO SMOTHER ME TO DEATH!" During the momentary pockets of air, Aoni, ignoring the squishy, soft sensation of his annoying BroCon sister's breast, Screamed with pure terror while pleading for help.

"Uh…should we…" Standing off to the side with his Dad and younger sister, Ant, still flabbergasted at what transpired, turned his eyes toward Charlotte, then Jason, and asked.

"You act like we have any choice in the matter," Jason added while sighing and knowing what would happen if he didn't step in.

The truth was if Lea caught wind of the... let's just call it Skinship, happening between Clara and Aoni, odds were, she wouldn't lay a hand on either of her children and instead take her anger out on Jason for letting it happen in the first place.
