Ruler's Awakening: Inheritor of the SSS-Rank Dimensional Talent-Chapter 184: Golden Light Pillar

Aaron began to feel a steady flow of external energy coming into his body. The energy flow came from two things, the Amethyst and Ruby gems that were split, and came from the light magic of the city’s cathedral.

There are two phases in Ascension. The first phase is the adjustment of the external energy to the body. At this moment, the external energy will impact the talents in Aaron’s body to ascend.

The second phase was the power sync. Two different magical energies will merge into a single entity in Aaron’s talent ascension. The second phase was difficult as it required calm and high concentration.

The slightest hint of aggressiveness will give a bad impression, which will affect the external magic energy that responds aggressively. In the end, it resulted in Ascension failure.

The door to the Ascension room opened, Liruca came in with a woman and three other women. She was the Great Elder, coming with three other elders selected by her.

The four came for a specific reason, a mage was about to perform Ascension at SSS rank, not perform Ascension to SSS rank.

The woman knew the Ascension location for the highest rank. She and the others walked together up the spiral stairs to arrive at the second floor of the room.

She met Stephanie, Stephanie smiled and kissed the Great Elder’s hand as she welcomed her.

"I had expected that. He is indeed an interesting man," the Great Elder replied, surprising Stephanie and Liruca.

"You know him, Great Elder?"

Great Elder shook her head elegantly, replying that she didn’t know him, that they hadn’t even exchanged names.

Still, the Great Elder recognized his face, a man who could be detached from her majestic persona.

"He’s a man who isn’t affected by my persona," Great Elder said.

WOSH!

A strong gust of wind blew strongly in that place, spreading purplish-gold colored magic particles all over the place.

The force of the magic energy created the appearance of a magic energy rain from the second floor to the first floor.

They tried to touch the magic particles, grasping them in their palms. But the magic particles faded away as quickly as snowflakes.

Even so, they felt a warm and cozy sensation as their bodies were showered by the magic energy particles.

Aaron’s two palms came together, his body immediately absorbing the entire amount of magic energy. Great Elder and the others saw the moment, the first time in history that a mage managed to perform Ascension simultaneously at SS rank.

[27. Two in One]

[Ascending two talents in one rank simultaneously]

Aaron’s eyes opened when he realized the Ascension procession to the second stage of the SS talent rank was successful.

He looked straight ahead, witnessing a beautiful white-haired woman in a long white robe. Aaron knew who she was, she was the Great Elder of Lilith City Cathedral.

"Talent rank SS has been completed. Do you want to rest for a while or go straight to Ascension rank SSS?" Stephanie asked.

This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.

"Go straight to SSS rank ascension, Ms. Stephanie."

"Alright."

Because of the higher rank, Aaron was asked to raise his focus. Aaron complied with Stephanie’s orders.

Now that the big decision was about to happen, documentation was being done as part of their way of preserving history.

Stephanie had prepared five gems of two different types, a total of 10 gems that would be used in the Ascension procession this time.

After watching Aaron get used to the City Cathedral’s light magic, Stephanie aimed the ten gems forward and entered the light pillar.

As Aaron had guessed, the Ascension to the peak rank in SSS Rank was filled with the presence of magical turmoil in his body, considering the large amount of magic energy required in this Ascension.

The Great Elder squinted his eyes, sensing a powerful magic boom that was able to shake the objects in the space or building of the City Cathedral.

Those performing Ascension on the first floor were interrupted for a moment due to the fear of their magic energy being absorbed into Aaron’s Ascension.

Ten gems split apart, starting to flow steadily into Aaron’s body through his forehead. Aaron felt the hot and cold sensation of the two different types of gem energy, Amethyst and Ruby.

Aaron’s eyebrows dipped sharply as his eyes closed, his forehead frowned as his hands shook. Surprisingly, Aaron vomited a bit of blood in response to a small mistake while controlling the incoming external magic energy.

"What happened to him, Great Elder?" asked Stephanie, confused.

"It seems that his body can’t handle the large amount of magic energy from the Ascension Talent," said the Great Elder.

"What should we do?" asked Liruca, panicked.

Suddenly, a golden light towered from the location of the circle floor where Aaron had performed the Ascension Talent.

The golden pillar towered and made it through the ceiling of the room, the people outside the cathedral saw the incident.

Jovanni, Max, and Eloise saw the golden pillar. The golden pillar that came from the city cathedral that usually appeared when they were doing something, whether it was summoning a high-rank servant or a high-rank ascension.

The pillar was capable of inviting thunder, with storms and heavy rain. Merchants closed their shops early when it happened.

Inside the cathedral, the Great Elder was informed by a nun that three leaders of three major groups were flying near the city cathedral.

The Great Elder gave strict orders to all of them, whether staff, nuns, or even visitors to the city cathedral.

"Order the evacuation of the nuns and visitors to the city cathedral!"

"Order the staff with the Young Sage tier mage to help me form a shield in this place. We cannot let the City Cathedral be destroyed because of this."

Inside Aaron’s body, his soul tried to control one by one the gem energy that came into his body. It was quite difficult to control as Aaron was not allowed to be aggressive.

Slowly but surely, he was able to do so. One by one, the gem magic flowed into Aaron’s magic center, starting a sync with Aaron’s elemental magic.

Feeling his condition slowly stabilizing, he focused his mind and body to complete all the Ascension talents. The pillar of light grew stronger with the rumbling clouds turning into a mix of gold and purple.

Eloise raised her eyes, seeing that the power was much stronger than what she had imagined. Eloise teamed up with Max and Jovani to form a circle of magic shields enclosing the City Cathedral.

In Aaron’s mind, he saw a purple light forming a pattern of something on a rock. Then the image of Aaron’s face was displayed before the man, holding the purple light in the shape of an artifact within it, and finally performing something like inserting the artifact into his forehead.

Slowly, a portal pattern was imprinted on Aaron’s forehead, in the shape of a circle with eight cardinal directions, the circle in the center shaped like a magic portal. The pattern was formed with a purple color, identical to Aaron’s elemental magic.

’Is this picture telling me to capture that thing?’ Aaron asked.

He opened his eyes and watched as the amount of magic energy from Aaron’s body gathered before him. The magic ball flew freely into the sky in a random direction, as if it was avoiding Aaron.

"Aaron. Are you alright?" asked the Great Elder, focusing on holding back the magic boom of the golden light pillar.

Not answering the woman’s words, Aaron flew up and chased after the purple light sphere. He flew fast and managed to catch the purple ball in his hand. Aaron did exactly what was shown to him earlier.

[DING! Congratulations on getting the divine pattern]

[The Divine Pattern is a sign that one has reached the final stage of a talent]

[The next Ascension will be the Celestial Trials]

’Celestial Trials? What is that?’ Aaron asked.

The eight cardinal portal pattern was imprinted and vividly displayed in purple on Aaron’s forehead. The light pillar dimmed with the roar of the storm and the wind rain subsided. Everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, nothing had happened to their beloved city.

The Great Elder sensed there was no real threat to the City Cathedral. He deactivated the magic cage and stepped towards Aaron, wondering.
