YM778.TV Chapter 179 ROLE
And yet, woven into that sense of newfound vitality was the ghost of the pain he had endured to reach this state. The transformation had not come without cost; every fiber of his being had been tested, torn apart, and reassembled.
"[System Alert: Path of Ember Divinity Activated.]"
The words appeared before him, floating in the air, glowing with a subtle, eerie light. As he read, a chill mixed with excitement crept up his spine.
"[By walking the Path of Ember Divinity, you claim the final flame shared by the Divine Mysteries, a force that unites life\'s warmth and the ash of decay.
However, the Ember draws upon your soul\'s spark; should you falter, its hunger may consume you. Proceed with caution—godhood awaits only those whose fire endures.]"
David\'s gaze softened as he looked down at Luna, who lay exhausted in his arms, breathing softly. Gently, he placed her on the bed, tucking the blankets around her. As he did, his mind swirled with questions.
Claiming the final flame shared by the Divine Mysteries?
The words were cryptic, hinting at forces beyond mortal comprehension. What exactly was this "final flame"?
But as he reached the end of the system\'s description, his attention sharpened.
"The Ember draws upon your soul\'s spark; should you falter, its hunger may consume you." The warning lingered, heavy and foreboding. He murmured the words aloud, his voice a low echo in the quiet room.
This power was no mere gift—it was a challenge, a burden that could as easily destroy him as elevate him.
He was about to open his system window for more information when a soft knock interrupted his thoughts.
David hesitated, momentarily taken off guard.
Who could it be?
Perhaps a maid sent to prepare him for the day. After all, his transformation had been… unconventional, to say the least. With a sigh, he crossed the room, his mind still lingering on the cryptic message of the system.
Outside the door, the maid waited patiently, unaware of the scene within. When David finally opened the door, she lowered her head respectfully, prepared to relay the Earl\'s words. But as she lifted her gaze, her eyes widened, and her mouth fell open slightly, her breath catching in her throat.
Before her stood David—naked, his skin glowing with a faint, golden sheen that made him look almost otherworldly. The light seemed to shimmer across his body, casting him in a divine aura that blurred the line between man and myth. The maid\'s face flushed, and she immediately raised her hand to shield her gaze, turning her head to the side in embarrassment.
"Forgive me, young master," she stammered, her voice filled with a mix of shock and admiration.
David blinked, momentarily puzzled by her reaction. Then he glanced down, realization dawning with a jolt.
Right. Naked.
With an awkward cough, he quickly closed the door.
He took a deep breath, steadying himself. In the rush of power and transformation, he had momentarily forgotten the simple reality of modesty. With a rueful smile, he crossed the room and slipped into some informal noble attire.
The soft fabric brushed against his skin, grounding him, reminding him of the normalcy he was meant to uphold despite the divine power now simmering beneath the surface.
Once dressed, he returned to the door, opening it with a more composed demeanour. The maid, still flustered, dared a quick glance at him, her cheeks tinted with a faint pink hue. She cleared her throat, attempting to regain her professional composure.
"The Earl requests your presence in the Advisory Council chambers," she informed him, her voice still slightly unsteady.
David nodded, offering her a kind, if somewhat amused, smile. "Thank you. Please let him know I\'ll be there shortly."
The maid nodded, bowing respectfully before turning to leave, her steps a bit quicker than usual. David watched her go, the faintest hint of a smile playing on his lips. Then, as he turned back into his room, his expression shifted, his thoughts returning to the system\'s message.
The Ember Divine… the flame of divinity.
He could feel it pulsing within him, a fierce, untamed force that was both a gift and a challenge. A path laid before him, promising godhood but shadowed by risk. Whatever lay ahead, he would face it with the strength of the ember burning within.
With a final glance around his room, David straightened his posture and prepared himself for the journey that awaited him.
Confirming that Luna was still fast asleep, David quietly slipped out of his chambers, his mind already whirling with questions. Your journey continues at m v|l-e\'-NovelBin.net
Why had he been summoned to the advisory council chamber so early?
It felt sudden, almost suspicious. A prickling of unease crept up his spine as he considered the possibilities.
Could they have somehow found out that he had eliminated Shuna?
He shook his head, dismissing the thought. It seemed unlikely—they had been thorough, leaving no trace of the deed.
Still, a precaution wouldn\'t hurt. Spotting a maid passing by, he gestured her over and spoke in a low voice, "Please, fetch my guests, Seraphina and Draven. Tell them to wait for me just outside the council chambers." The maid nodded, eyes widening slightly before she scurried off to fulfil his request.
As David neared the grand double doors of the advisory council chamber, he noted the two guards stationed on either side, clad in gleaming armour. They straightened, acknowledging him with a respectful nod before pulling open the heavy doors.
Just then, a strange itch tugged at the corner of his eyes, almost like a flicker of irritation, especially when he glanced back toward the maid who had called him here. He blinked it away, choosing to ignore the sensation as he stepped inside.
The chamber was imposing as ever, with tall windows casting faint morning light across polished wooden tables and the faces of the council members seated before him. But something felt different this time, a peculiar energy in the room.
The Earl, who had always been able to read David\'s mood, observed him with a slight frown. He seemed surprised, almost unsettled, as if sensing a shift in David\'s presence. David\'s aura, once turbulent and raw, now flowed with a quiet, potent calm—like the gentle but unyielding pull of an ocean tide.
Elder La Muerte\'s gaze lingered on him, her expression softened by a trace of admiration. She couldn\'t help but note how David\'s features seemed even more striking, as though a touch of ethereal grace had settled over him. How could that be possible?
Elder Luviania, too, narrowed his eyes, as if trying to discern the change in him. But it was he who finally broke the silence, his tone laced with concern. "David, are you… alright?" he asked, his brow furrowing.
David blinked, his trance momentarily broken by the question. He offered a reassuring smile, shaking his head slightly. "Ah, yes. Don\'t mind me," he replied smoothly, though his own curiosity was simmering just below the surface.
Lord Hilton gestured toward Elder Maison\'s empty seat, an invitation in his voice. "Have a seat, son," he said warmly, patting the armrest of the chair. David nodded, circling around the table before settling into the vacant seat.
As he sat, something unexpected flashed before his eyes—a sudden, familiar glimmer of light as the system\'s notification appeared in his mind.
"[Point of View has been activated.]"
The words hovered in his vision, cryptic yet charged with meaning.
"[Visualize multiple potential futures and past events, allowing you to make informed decisions and foresee outcomes.]"
David\'s breath caught as he processed the system\'s words.
Point of View? What did that mean exactly?
He hardly had a moment to contemplate before translucent windows began to materialize in his line of sight. Each one held descriptions, skills and status.
He gazed around the room, observing each council member with a renewed intensity, like he was seeing them for the first time. Information danced in the air around them
David glanced at Elder Tyron shocked at what he was seeing.
