Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 983

Chapter 983 Feather

Sylas stood in silence for a long while.

There seemed to only be two choices. Kill her or accept a marriage contract. But wasn't there a third?

Sylas stepped over Lorien. He pushed past rubble until he found it, a floating City Stele.

For the first time, he laid his eyes on the floating feather that was the Aether Treasure. It should have been his the first time, but after all this time, it landed right where it was supposed to.

'I can't read it…'

Sylas shook his head. He didn't know what level this treasure was at, but he couldn't even begin to scan it.

He really needed to get his hands on a more powerful Scouting Skill, but he just had never been able to find one. His screen was just filled with lines of question marks.

The Aether Treasure was giving off an oppressive feeling, more oppressive than anything Sylas had seen from the other treasures he had come across. It was truly extraordinary, and Sylas knew that if he could bring it into the jade, it would give him exactly what he wanted.

However, this wasn't his main goal, not just yet.

He had to give up a World Treasure just to make it to this point. Once he left this place, in all likelihood, the World Scepter that had been tethered to Earth would be destroyed.

That left one obvious problem.

Wouldn't this Aether Treasure be the same?

Technically speaking, World Treasures were beyond Aether Treasures in strength. But this was only because they were tethered to specific worlds. Outside of these worlds, their strength was completely worthless unless they could be modified.

Sylas wasn't a blacksmith or treasure maker of any sort. When he acted, he could only use whatever means necessary to get things to work, even if it came at a sacrifice.

From what Sylas could see from others, like Aurion's treasure for example, they were the same. But mostly because the blacksmiths they relied on were incompetent.

Ulrik's Aether Treasure had been destroyed when the city fell from half a kilometer up. There was no way anything could survive such destruction. Maybe if the treasure alone had fallen, it would be fine. But the problem was the shrapnel and residual energy of the city itself falling as well.

This feather treasure, though… it was completely different. Somehow, it seemed to have bonded to the City Stele on its own. While it wasn't simple to just take it away…

Sylas' telekinesis reached forward, wrapping around the feather. _{ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com}

'Resistance…'

Sylas pulled back quickly, feeling quite some danger. He didn't know where it was coming from.

The obvious answer was the feather itself, but things weren't so easily cut and dry.
