Will of chaos

That late afternoon I went to the Communal Temple, every time I enter here I can feel the Holy power within me becoming more active as it reacts to the environment, this is one of the things I haven't trained in until now and I see my mistake, could have been of great help in the last battles of that city.

"Good to see you young Zenos, Nira has already spread the word, everything is ready." (Yara)

"I noticed, the temple is empty today." (I)

"Nobody wants to interfere with their sister's Awakening Ceremony." (Yara)

"As Vanessa is out of the Dungeon I ended up being responsible for leaving everything organized, the other High Priests will be present, but they stayed away." (Yara)

Sigh

"Thanks." (I)

I enter the Communal Temple and feel the various blessings, blood, and Holy power within my body stirring, I can even feel the presences of the Gods from the crystal statues in the other room.

"I'll never get used to this." (I)

"Yes, you are immortal, one day you'll get used to almost everything." (Yara)

"..." (I)

I look at Yara, I know her true identity, I know that this High Priestess of Life in front of me is just one of many who are individuals separate from her main body, someone who has lived longer than I can doubtless imagine.

"Margareth is apparently already here." (I)

Inside the Communal Temple, I can feel everything, there's nothing that can hide from me in here when I'm present, possibly because my power helped create this place and that's why it's strongly connected to me.

I'm walking to the main hall where the statues of the Gods are, as soon as I enter I see Margareth in front of the statue of the Goddess Selene, she was holding the red crystal where my sister's Soul was sleeping.

"You are early." (I)

"I look forward to meeting my master again." (Margareth)

"I remember you saying that she always caused a lot of trouble." (I)

"Yes, but solving these problems for her has been my reason for living since the day I chose to serve my Master." (Margareth)

Sigh

"Let's get this over with..." (I)

I talk to her as I approach, then the crystal floats, to be between me and the statue of the Goddess Selene, some glowing orbs float around the red crystal coming out of it.

Each sphere had a different presence, I didn't understand what they were but they knew they didn't belong to my sister since they didn't have the same Aura as the crystal.

"What are these spheres?" (I)

"These are things my master collected over the last year before I was reunited with you." (Margareth)

"My master and I know more about the Ceremony of Awakening than those who follow you, we know that during the Ceremony certain powers, bloodlines, skills, and items can be used to build or rebuild a body during awakening." (Margareth)

"Some of these spheres have things that belonged to my master, things that she conquered with violence... I mean, that she conquered for herself and other things that I collected along the way following her will." (Margareth)

"I don't guarantee it will work, as far as I know, there is something about compatibility." (I)

"At least I've always tried to think that way." (I)

"You're right, the power must come from you or it must come from a compatible external source." (Margareth)

I already knew that, somehow I could feel these things after performing so many Awakening Ceremonies.

"Are you sure we don't need Vanessa for this?" (I)

"What you will do is just start a process in which the Goddess Selene will continue, she doesn't like to interfere with the children, but in that case, she will only be helping to rebuild the body by providing support, any changes will be between you and my master ." (Margareth)

Sigh

"I'm a little nervous, but we'll see how this goes." (I)

I get ready right in front of the red crystal and the statue of Goddess Selene, I was a little nervous about all this but I had already made up my mind.

"I'm starting!" (I)

At that moment I felt the presence of the other statues of the other Gods retreating into the statues while the presence of the Goddess Selene statue filled the entire Temple, it seemed that the other Gods were paying attention here and did not want to interfere.

I activate my unique skill [Demon Dragon Authority: 1], this skill evolved from the result of the synthesis of all my awakening-type skills.

Ding!

<[ Ability [ Demon Dragon Authority: 1 ] activated ]>

.

.

.

<[ A Skill containing the power of Authority was used to influence a being above the skill owner's level ]>

.

.

<[ Natasha (Demigoddess of Blood) agreed to cooperate with you ]>

I felt my power being activated, I used this power with Nicole in the past, but it feels different now, I didn't notice it then, but something was missing, I know that now because I feel a comfortable sense of completeness when using this power this time, I don't know what has changed, maybe it's because I have mastered my body and current power finally getting used to my body.

I felt my blood, Ki, mana, spiritual energy, vitality, and even the holy energy I still haven't learned to use leave my body as they mixed with my Aura, soon a shapeless mass of energy that resembled my scales or a night sky shows above me.

Then I feel something else, something I didn't know was there, something I didn't understand and couldn't name surge through me making all the bright spots that represent my energy in the black crystalline mass orbit around it, it was like a solar system while not.

What was in the middle wasn't a Sun or a black hole and nothing that I could associate with anything in the universe, it was a shadow that when it appeared it looked like a Dragon before shrinking into a humanoid form with one purple eye and one gold eye, those eyes the only identifiable feature in the shadow being.

At that moment the being of shadows looks at my sister's red crystal and points his arm there, then a red energy arises from the statue of the Goddess becoming a nebula within the mass of energy that I created similar to an image of a solar system, it was a cloud of scarlet energy flowing around the shadow creature like a protective ring.

Then all this mass of energy moves to surround my sister's crystal and be absorbed by it until there is nothing left, to my surprise I only used half of my energy this time, it seems that the scarlet energy from before supplied the rest of the energy needed.

Ding!

<[ Identified the interference of the Goddess Selene (Goddess of Blood) in the awakening of Natasha (Demigoddess of Blood) ]>

.

.

.

<[ Choose 3 powers to grant Natasha (Demigoddess of Blood) ]>

At that moment my mind is filled with a brutal amount of information, the truth is that I carry thousands of lineages in my blood and have hundreds of skill variations or maybe even more, not counting the various Elemental Affinities I have, all of this was an amount of information that a human mind would break to comprehend, I myself would have had a stroke if that happened to me to this degree, luckily I'm getting strong enough to take that kind of mental load in stride now.

The truth is that I had thought of a few things before, but at that moment something popped into my mind, they were two wills that seemed to fight over something for a few seconds giving me a huge headache in the process before 3 things stood out in the gigantic list.

1. Bloodline [ True Blood Dragon: Original ]

2. Lineage [ Goddess Selene: 100% ]

3. Skill [ Aura of Nature ]

These 3 options were more than just highlighted, they were glowing like neon signs in my mind, so I chose them thinking that the Goddess Selene and my sister had chosen these options.

Ding!

<[ Power grant ended ]>

.

.

<[ Wake-up process starting ]>

.

.

.

<[ Natasha (Demigoddess of Blood) began absorbing various external powers on her own ]>

.

.

<[ It has been identified that all external powers have more than 70% compatibility with Natasha (Demigoddess of Blood) ]>

.

.

.

<[ Natasha's Resurrection Process (Demigoddess of Blood) has been started ]>

.

.

.

<[ Natasha's (Demigod of Blood) power and Authority will be limited to the level of Zenos (Demigod of Incomplete Blood) ]>

.

.

.

<[ Wake up process completed ]>

Soon I feel three streams of power surge from me and enter the crystal that has lost its solid form as tentacles that seem to be made of blood pull the spheres that orbit the red crystal from the beginning inward.

An amount of blood began to pour out of the crystal that now had a star shape, this blood took on a humanoid form as it continued to surge, then a scarlet light surged from the statue of Goddess Selene to cover the humanoid form with blood, like a crystal cocoon.

Tu-Tum!  Tu-Tum!  Tu-Tum!  Tu-Tum!

I could feel and hear stronger and stronger heartbeats arise, and I could feel a previously ethereal Aura and presence now becoming solid, but what surprised me the most was a feeling of familiarity arise within me, I felt connected with whoever was inside from the cocoon, it wasn't a connection like the one I have with my Familiars, that connection was more natural as if it was always there and I only noticed now as if it had been enhanced.

"You're welcome, sister." (I)
