Saga of Atlantis

Chapter 46: Master

Description:-

Spatial Awareness: At its most basic, Star Sense enhances the user\'s spatial awareness, allowing them to perceive objects and energies in their immediate area more clearly.

Time Fluctuation Detection: As the skill progresses, the user develops the capacity to detect slight time fluctuations, which could alert them to events or disturbances in the time stream.

Space-Time Node Detection: As proficiency levels rise, the user will be able to locate space-time nodes—regions of space where time behaves strangely.

As I lay on my bed, my sight focused on the system screen, the soothing lamplight casting a warm glow on the room. My body ached in protest as a result of my impulsive curiosity and ill-fated attempt to use star energy. Despite having drunk three healing potions, every movement sent waves of pain rushing through my limbs.

"Ahh,fuck".

My rash experiment\'s effects were now painfully obvious. As I cautiously attempted to alter my posture, I couldn\'t help but curse my own irresponsibility.

I\'ve been sleeping since the morning because of the agonizing pain in my body, and I couldn\'t do anything today. Sylvia also came to check on me because I hadn\'t arrived at the kitchen in the morning, and after witnessing my physical condition, she gave me a healing potion and advised me to rest for the day.

Despite the physical suffering I\'d been through, the rewards reflected on the screen made it all worthwhile.

The ethereal radiance of the full moon drew my attention to the window. Its lovely silver shimmer engulfed the scene beyond, casting lengthy shadows and painting the landscape in a calm, otherworldly tone.

"Sigh.."

I rose from my comfy bed, exhaling a sleepy sigh, and carefully stretched my limbs, feeling the satisfying release of tension in my muscles. I moved towards the door while wearing the mask after taking it out of the inventory. I pushed open the door to my room and made my way to the main hall.

I proceeded through the ground floor\'s main hall, passing through the kitchen. I arrived at the end of the hall, in front of a room.

"Knock,knock".

I took a step back after knocking twice on the door.

The sound of someone approaching the door grew closer as I waited, the faint padding of footsteps reverberating.

My attention was drawn to the doorknob, which began to turn, and the door creaked open from the inside. Sylvia\'s face emerged from behind the door, her eyes meeting mine.

"Come in".

With a welcoming gesture, Sylvia pushed the door open further, inviting me inside her room.

I was greeted in her room as I settled in. Her room was a haven of peace and tranquility. Everything appeared to have a place, providing a welcoming atmosphere. A warm, flickering candle on a bedside table casts a welcoming glow. A well-organized bookshelf along one wall had a collection of books, hinting at her love of reading. A little kitchen space, complete with a small table and chairs, was neatly tucked into one corner. A pair of soft sofas sat against another wall, providing a relaxing spot. Her bed had been meticulously prepared, with books neatly stacked on one side. It was a place that oozed peace and tranquility.

"Sit down" .

As I was glancing around her room, she motioned with her hand for me to sit on the sofa.

I accepted her invitation and sank into the plush cushions of the cozy sofa.

"Make your mana flow through it," she instructed, tossing a white orb-like object my way. I caught it and examined it closely. It was an orb commonly used in academies to measure a person\'s talent in any of the four main elements.

\'Did she have a space ring?\'

As I observed the orb, I couldn\'t help but wonder how she had seemingly produced it out of thin air. It made me think she might have a space ring, a valuable item that allowed for the storage and retrieval of various objects.

With a deep breath, I focused on channeling my mana into the orb.

As I channeled my mana into the orb, it began to glow, shifting through four different colors in distinct intervals. It started with a fiery red, then transitioned to a tranquil blue, followed by a vibrant green, and finally settled into a rich, earthy brown.

When I stopped pouring mana into the orb, it gradually returned to its natural, unremarkable white color. I handed it back to her, and she carefully set it aside, her gaze never leaving me.

"Remove your mask and introduce yourself properly".

As she sat down on the sofa in front of me, she said,

"Why?"

Despite knowing where this was heading, I asked her, trying to be as natural as I could in front of her.

"Just do it; don\'t ask much about it".

She replied while crossing her leg.

I hesitated for a moment, but eventually I nodded in agreement and reached for the mask that covered my face. After carefully removing it, my hair color changed from black to white as I revealed my features to her.

"I\'m Eden Morton." I introduced myself with a slight bow. "It\'s a pleasure to properly meet you."

She studied me for a moment, her gaze scrutinizing my face. Then, she asked,

"Do you know who I am?"

"I don\'t," I replied to her question. She regarded me with suspicion but didn\'t press the matter further.

"You\'re Stephanie\'s son, aren\'t you?"

Her unexpected words took me by surprise.

There wasn\'t anything in the game or in Eden\'s memories where it was revealed that Sylvia knew my mother.

"Yes, do you know her?" .

I responded to her with an affirmative nod.

"I met her once in a hidden relationship years ago when she was with that guy" .

She responded to me with a contemplative expression on her face.

"That guy?"

I was intrigued and inquired who she was referring to.

"It\'s nothing; anyway, why did you choose the name Neil?"

She changed the subject and appeared quite curious this time.

"My mother liked that name".

Making an excuse on the spot, I replied to her, as I couldn\'t tell her Neil was my name in my previous world.

"Haha, is that so".

With a chuckle, she replied, her usual smile returning to her.

However, the moment was short-lived as her appearance began to change. Her face, which had been ordinary until now, underwent a transformation, and her black hair started to grow longer. I watched in astonishment as her features shifted, becoming more refined and striking.

"Eden, would you like to be my disciple?" She asked with a warm smile, her appearance now peerless and radiant.

\'Fuck yeah, Milf Master\'.
