Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 765: Elder Eternity



There were plain blades of green grass all around here, some places with some flower fields, some big and small trees where birds resided, and there were also small places where grass wasn\'t present.

\'This was also one of such places where grass wasn\'t present for some reason.\'

We didn\'t think much of this place when we noticed them throughout the grass field since there wasn\'t much special about them.

They were spots without grass in a grassland full of grass. There wasn\'t much we could have thought of this place.

\'We were listening to her words with complete focus, but perhaps it was because our attention was slightly diverted in a way, or perhaps it was because of the sheer size of this being… but, neither of our eyes could possibly not notice that thing.\'

It was massive.

Like, masssssssssssive!

"Oh, looks like you can see Albert. As expected of your sharp and truth seeing eyes."

She was smiling warmly as she looked at that massive thing with love present in her eyes.

Far from being surprised by that thing, it was clear that she not only was familiar with it, she also knew it well enough for her to have that loving look in her eyes.

\'She said she is family of an eternity…\'

So, it was at least clear that the thing we were seeing right now, the thing that I did not want to be something that actually existed there, was in fact an Eternity, a being on par with the creatures of mythos.

\'Absurd…\'

I could only see its faint outline and as it had become invisible but the winds were making its outline clear.

It was a little difficult to grasp the true volume of this creature, but even from how much we can see it, we can tell this being was around three times the size of Rein\'s grandma\'s giant turtle.

And that was just by height.

\'A centipede-like creature from what we can tell, with countless legs that were the true culprits behind the grassless spots.\'

I had used my third eye to look at the extent of this creature by looking at it from above, but still, it was just too large.

\'This creature was at least a few kilometres long, was wide enough to cover three houses like the one beside us, and though we couldn\'t see all of it yet, I can tell its legs were three to four times Rein and my heights combined.\'

It was a kind of creature I had never expected to encounter ever in my life, not after seeing the true form of Master.

It was longer than the dragons mentioned in the stories, taller than the world turtles that were big enough to carry mountains and islands on their backs.

There was no presence to this creature so one can compare it\'s presence with the stealthy flight of a griffin as well, but, this being was none of those creatures…

"Albert! They can see you!"

{ "How is that possible! I\'m not even moving!" }

"Stop hiding and come ask them yourself!"

{ "Can I do that?! They are only children! They might get scared!" }

"Then turn into something like them!"

{ "Oh! We can do that as well! Right!" }

"I you did not forget to bring the thing I asked, right?! You will have to go back you did!"

{ "I don\'t forget things like you do Wali!" }

The kind of conversation they were having was the kind of conversation mom would have with dad, or something Rein was I would say to each other on the most common and simple of the day.

There was a smile on her face, and anticipation in her eyes.

\'Inferring the kind of relationship they had wasn\'t that difficult…\'

But still, the thing they said to each other, that changing into something like us part… that was concerning.

[{ "Oy…" }]

[{ "I know. Just keep watching…" }]

Rein was stunned the first time she saw the movements of the grass, and the way the winds collided with something in the space.

The winds of these plains were pretty special and the wind element was prominent here as well so as someone that can sense the waterdrops the winds were carrying, she can tell there was something before us.

\'She noticed that creature before me, actually…\'

-Ooooooooooooooooong!

But for the first time, the invisible creature was revealing its original form.

"He had prepared himself to meet you two, but since he doesn\'t like being around anyone else, he was shy and had gone for a walk.

You came early so he didn\'t know how to come before you."

She continued calmly sipping on her tea as a light so great it was enough to blind any normal human for the rest of their lives covered the entire great pains of Adanca.

{ "Apologies, children. I know I\'m a little clumsy, but please bare with me a little." }

"It\'s fine. They are stronger than the children we have met until now."

The invisible great creature, an eternal being that cannot be put on the same level as any other creature, a [White] ranked creature that possessed a level of mana that could not be measured with human standards… a true, elder eternal being revealed its true form before us.

"He\'s one of a kind… just like the rest of us."

With the blinding light, the skin of invisibility first vanished and revealed its original form…

[{ Wow… }]

A magnificent creature so large it seemed to cover the entire plains in our sight, so tall it seemed like we were nothing more than dust crystals, and it possessed so many legs that it was as if just the number of its legs could each carry the entire population of a big city.

Its exoskeleton was tough and green, with natural lights and unique patterns present all over it.

The eyes that were looking down at us, the ferocious eyes of a predator that could not be compared with anything either of us had witnessed in our lifetimes, these red eyes were deep, just like blood.

\'Celes was astonished.\'

She wasn\'t speaking much since a few days ago since she couldn\'t forgive herself for whatever happened to me.

There was no point in accepting herself as the one to blame, but she was not listening to anything any of us said.

She kept silent, said only when she had no choice but to speak, and just blamed herself for being the weak one.

\'She was practically locked in her mark as well.\'

But she was still connected to me so she could feel how I was feeling back then and she knew even though I was there, she could not come out and help me with whatever was going on.

\'She had not spoken much since then, but even she couldn\'t hold back her admiration for this absolute creature.\'

It was majestic, it was phenomenal, it was divine…

There might be words out there to describe how I was feeling, how we were feeling as we looking at its glorious beauty, but I know for a fact there aren\'t any words out there that could completely describe the uniqueness of this creature.

-Oooooooooooooong!

We wished we could keep looking at it but with another burst of intense green light, it changed its form, its entire body got covered in that light, and started shrinking down.

"We don\'t use the common language often so pardon me if I say something I don\'t mean."

The creature that seemed like it could wrap around the entire world if it wished for it, the creature that resembled an insect like creature, that same creature that made us all skip a heartbeat, in only a blink of the eyes, had turned into a human.

"Greetings. I\'m Albertus or Albert as she calls me. It is my pleasure to meet the successor or <White Flames Of Eternal Salvation> as well as the successor of <Eyes of Anpu> at the same time.

It will always surprise me how you two have become so close despite the opposite natures of your fates, but, after learning how the opposites are the best for one another from this pretty lady, I believe you two will see some good things on your journey together."

"You weren\'t supposed to say so much all at once, Albert…"

She shook her head with a palm on her face with disappointment, and-… wait!

"Do you know my master?!"

"Hmm? All of us would obviously know her."

First of all, the giant insect-like creature had turned into a human that unexpectedly looked as attractive as King Salvio Neron Ned, the protagonist of my translation epic.

Tall and tough like grandpa, an old and wise air surrounding him, his eyes carrying light of ancient secrets, with his deep shiny green hair and those deep red eyes making him look unfathomably beautiful.

Second of all, he knew grandma!

\'There\'s no other person that could have a grand title like that!\'

He called her by a title I had never known about, but only she possessed white flames. Flames that could bring salvation to any being that needed it.

"You might not be as forgetful as me but you certainly are too dumb for your age."

She grabbed his ear, twisted it… which might have hurt a lot, certainly, and made him sit him down beside her.

"Sorry about that. I didn\'t want you to get surprised like that."

She knew grandma as well… she knew everything about us!

Both of them…!

They knew everything about us from the start! Even things we did not know about!

"See. You started them!"

"Didn\'t you just say they are stronger than the others!"

"Not mentally, no! Not for things like these!"

These two…

"What… are you two?"

I wanted to jump up and get in a defensive stance but, I couldn\'t do anything right now.

"What did you do to her…?"

Something was happening with Rein, her eyes… they were glowing right now. She was holding my hand so tightly it was on the verge of breaking…

"Haaaa. This one\'s up to you."

"…tsk."

They were behind this.

Whatever he meant when he greeted her, it was the reason that caused her to be like that… he did that to her.

So, he better know how to bring her back to normal if he wanted this pretty house of theirs to stay in this state.

[{ *Master… I just unlocked another message.* }]

\'What? This isn\'t the time to look at her messages Lucy! Don\'t you see-\'

[{ *Um… it looks like we cannot postpone this one, master.* }]

The light before my eyes also vanished along with the two of them and the pretty afternoon scenery…

And it was sudden, but after a few weeks since back at the outskirts of sky island, once again, I was seeing the person I wanted to see every single day of my life.
