Chapter 59: A Goddess Teaches a Lesson
there was a ringing sound in the skies as everything stopped
and the peach lady appeared but she wasn't like how she usually was she was in full god form
her body was giant-sized and her peach dress became a traditional Han style gown in soft peach and white colors
in a soft material that blew and fluttered in the wind, she looked young and beautiful her hair worn in an elegant roll and draped in pretty hair ornaments all around her glowed with energy
as she stood between the beam of energy the dragon fired and everyone else
wow everyone breathed gazing up at her in awe and to think
Bethany was one to dare to argue with her when she had been this powerful all along
she lifted her giant-sized hand to the beam and moved forward
gliding in the air over the trees she pushed the beam right
back to the dragons glowing orb beneath its neck
and then she grabbed the huge dragon by the throat as if it were not a massively large creature and began to squeeze
the dragon reacted like the worm wigging around in her hand
how dare you black dragon! her voice filled the skies
you were allowed to come into power for a time and you let it go to your head ? she scolded him
do you really think the gods would have such an important mission going on without properly monitoring it?
We would allow the likes of you to harm Our chosen Celestial Knights?
you have gotten far too big and full of yourself and have forgotten your place and whom you serve well never you mind
I am here to remind you she glared into the dragons gaping eyes she lifted the dragons head exposing its orb under its neck
she reached out and plucked it from his throat;
ripping it out the dragon roared in pain and anguish
as blood gushed from a gaping wound in its neck spilling down its black scales
the sound filling the skies making everyone cover their ears
what the gods have given they can also take away she said this shall be your punishment for threatening the Celestial Knights
and attacking them and wolf city putting everyone here in jeopardy the orb glowed in the goddess
hand a dragons orb contained all of its celestial energy and cultivation and the dragon was extremely old thousands of years old in fact
and for your punishment for rebelling against the gods well she smirked at him with an evil intention in her eyes
thank you for your donation to the success of the mission our celestial knights will put your cultivation to very good use I am sure by the time they are finished absorbing all of it they will all be nine-tailed celestials
Zyle Zehan come here she ordered
the pair flew to her
take this her giant hand came down as she gave the orb to the two
thank you goddess they both gasped bowing to her they flew back to where the others were waiting to surround the pair
the old black dragon king could only watch in utter horror in the clutch of the goddess rendered helpless no matter how he wiggled there was no escape from her hold
and now to make sure you never ever cause such trouble in the face of the gods ever again she said
the dragon began to shrink in her hand until it became nothing more than a small black snake held between her thumb and finger wiggling around she summoned out a jar and dropped him inside and then covered it tightly
she looked at the jar in her hands with a satisfied smile
take a time out for a few thousand years in that form and maybe
I will think about forgiving you for your atrocious disrespectful behavior
how dare you make a fuss for a throne that was never yours, to begin with putting all of existence under threat
you deserve your punishment the jar vanished from her hand and she turned her gaze on the group
she smiled pleasantly and returned to her usual more familiar size
are you kids alright? she asked flying over to them
thank you for saving us Justin said
it's my job to prevent things like that from hindering the quest she said putting hands on her hips with a grin
this will be my grand coupe de grace if I can save all the other gods with my team,
nothing must stand in the way of my knights
why do you keep calling us knights? Bethany said
thats the team name we choose for you we can't keep calling you quest team we need a grand name for you all
and the gods have been into the medieval era characters like King Arthur and the knights of the round table have become popular tales in the court lately understand the gods have been locked up
for a long time, they need something to keep them from being bored at least
so they decided to call you guys
Celestial Knights nice name right?
I guess its better than nothing Anna said agreeing with a smile
zyle and Zehan you make sure everyone cultivates all of that orb understand? the peach lady said
yes we will goddess they assured her
Special Envoy of the raven clan she called them to her
yes my lady the young raven said flying to her the three ravens with him
bowing with his hands on his chest in the traditional respectful greeting
she reached out a hand and touched his head and energy washed over his wings expanded and became bigger
as she gave him and his ravens some energy thank you for coming all this way to guide the Knights
to Shangrila, we will not forget your clan's effort to assist with this quest you have won favor from the gods with this action
yes my lady thank you he replied we were only doing our duty when we found out about the Witches death and the quest
and prince Takehiko was with them Prince Zedrix wanted to help immediately
we also willingly offer our village as the knights base within the realms for this quest
permission granted its a very excellent idea she replied given that some of the clans within the realms have become rather unfriendly
they will most definitely need a safe sanctuary and a guide through the realms Prince Zedrix is on the ball
I must pay a visit to thank him personally she added smiling god work
wait a minute!
Takehiko said prince Zedrix was my baby brother the last time I saw him he was maybe three years old is this the same Zedrix?
ah, Takehiko my apologies she said to him I know until now you believed your clan was completely gone however this is not true,
Prince Zedrix is actually one of the children of the raven clan that were rescued
and sent to raven clans ancestral realm for safety when the black witch attacked back then,
all ravens who were old enough to fight were sent to the battle which included your fathers other two sons,
who are both regretfully gone we managed to save you from the battlefield and now you and
Zedrix are the only royal ravens left and he has been growing up in the ancestral realm along with the other children being protected by the spirits
of raven clan ancestors he is currently their leader I am sure you can find out everything from this young raven who will accompany you all from now on I must take my leave now
Bethany, you are looking very fine finally learned how to cultivate a good job by the way
see you guys later and like that peach, goddess vanished
everyone was stunned and staring at the two dragons now holding a giant-sized dragon orb filled with cultivation in their hands not only would it be filled with celestial energy it would also be filled with their uncle's powers and his martial arts techniques
literally everything the old dragon had ever gained was in that orb do we say condolences or congratulations? ziesoo asked
its congratulations Zehan said with a huge grin was bright it almost shocking to see on the dragon's face that usually didn't smile easily
we are kings now the rightful kings of dragon clan finally and we didn't have to go to war for it Zyle said elated
Vanessa Vivian officially is our new queens Zehan said gazing at the twin sisters who were their mates both girls flushed red
congratulations to you both Anna said I'm very proud of you both thank you anna her sisters both hugged her
so only yuqi remains as Princess of Fox Clan now Vivian said
it suits me I'm the youngest sassy fox princess I don't envy you yuqi replied with a smile
I wonder how the dragon clan will react when they find out their old king is no more? and their new queens are woodland foxes
don't worry we will handle that Zehan said let's go cultivate these orb first dragon orbs are a bit special Zyle and I will have to help you
guys absorb this what about this kid Takehiko asked about the young raven now trailing him
what's your name? Bethany asked
I am Shiro sacred maiden these ravens with me are Naki, Mika, and Keiji raven clans best scouts he answered
you may call me Bethany from now on the celestials around you are Queen Anastasia and King Justin of the fox clan
Prince Ziesoo and Taekwon of Tiger clan
Queen Vivian King Zehan of dragon clan Queen Vanessa and King Zyle of Dragon clan
Princess Yuqi and Nike of fox clan and you know Prince Takehiko and me
King Takehiko corrected her with a smile he is older than Prince Zedrix and is the rightful heir of Raven Clan
Prince Zedrix also says this when you all come to realms he must be addressed as our king
I see very well then as you please she replied smiling
you see that tree over there where the people are gathered you may go there and wait for us she told him
I would rather stay nearby so I can guard while you cultivate Shiro replied I will not let anyone interfere until you are finished
I think you are taking your job as envoy a bt too seriously Takehiko said amused
Prince Zedrix has given me responsibility and I promised to carry it out to the best of my ability I will not fail him he replied
you're very loyal to my brother Takehiko noted
we all are sir Prince Zedrix took care of all of us in the realms we all owe him our lives he replied proudly
Takehiko nodded very well you may continue to carry out your duty than not knowing what else say and resigning himself to the fact he would probably have a shadow from now on
the group flew up to the trees where yuqi and Nike cleared an area of trees
Shiro took up a post on a treetop with Naki, Mika, and Keiji circling the area from above keeping watch
and Zyle and can set down the large orb
everyone gather in a circle around the orb Zehan instructed and they did so
with Zyle and Zehan standing on
opposite ends of the circle facing each other they closed their eyes and began to form strange formations with their hands
while chanting strange words in guttural dragon language
around two large sigil rings expanded around them
one above was white with blue symbols the other below white with red symbols
a formation barrier came down, linking the two circles together so that the entire group was held within the circle
they would not be able to leave the circle until they had finished absorbing the dragon orb
the dragon orb began to glow very brightly and then a huge bolt of energy shot out of it
and into the ring above the rings began to spin around them and then streams of energy
burst out of the symbols in the rings and attached to each member within the circle and energy began to pour into their bodies
their bodies started glowing enveloped in energy immediately transparent tails
emerged from all the tailed celestials in the circle fanning into their full nine-tailed forms
for the winged members like Takehiko and the dragons
their wings unfurled and began to expand and change colors as Bethany the only human member her feet began
to leave the ground and her eyes glowed with light as she floated in the air her red curls danced around her head
back in wolf city, the celestial knights had not realized the havoc that had been
caused in the city by the appearance of a massive dragon filling the skies
above the city
within just a matter of a few minutes wolf city
had stared impending doom in the face with threat levels at their highest
and the sanctuary about to be destroyed by a rampaging dragon
only to be unexpectedly saved at the same time
by a god who had appeared which had not been seen many thousands of years
she had handled the dragon in the exacting way that only the gods were known for
the people were rejoicing the gods impeding return they had not been forsaken
and they were now watching the celestial knights cultivate to full power first hand right before their eyes
including Dimitri Evelyn Sergio Tamra Taishen and Odessa from the command center,
my goodness, it has not been a single boring day since the black witch died has there? Taishen said
I'm almost scared of what tomorrow will bring it's been more unpredictable than anything Sergio said shaking his head
these kids are growing their powers so rapidly in such a short time
of course, they must the heavens must be restored as soon as possible
Dimitri said, or all this will be for naught the lack of celestial energy on earth can last for only so long before things become truly unstable and this world starts to deteriorate
some hours later the formation disappeared and sigil rings vanished and the full team
of new nine-tailed celestials stood in a circle fully powered up their celestial weapons
had transformed into their final elite forms and they exuded cloaks of energy surrounding their bodies
their individual sigil rings encircled them now fully leveled up and all mates ring interlocked
wow they look really amazing Evelyn said smiling with tears in her eyes we must prepare ourselves for them to be leaving us soon
Tamra and Odessa both gave her nods of agreement, they all knew what she meant
they would miss their children dearly and pray to the gods for their safe return from the realms
but looking at them now they couldn't think anything could take their children down easily
they had all become very powerful now
their appearances were truly awe-inspiring they were undoubtedly the only full nine-tailed celestials on earth now
