Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 5335

Chapter 5335: Sword of Existence! III

Noah’s eyes shone as he took in the full breadth of THE Hallowed Demesne, the grasslands and the golden trees and the mountain of obsidian gold structures and the lounging Relictus and the distant terrifying auras.

On his shoulder, Seo-yeon’s eyes sparkled.

"Wow," she breathed. "Seo-yeon has never seen anything like this before!"

She looked around at everything, her small head turning to take it all in. "I was locked up this whole time. The whole, whole time! I only ever saw the storm and the endings and the dark. I never saw grasslands. Or gold trees. Or big lazy lizards just lying around like that!"

She pointed at a lounging Relictus with the delighted lack of fear of an entity who was understanding that existence was suddenly full of wonderful things. "Look at them! They’re so big and fat and they don’t even care about anything!"

She said it casually, joyfully, the simple wonder of a being seeing the open world for the first time after an eternity of confinement, and Noah couldnt help but smile. She deserved to see grasslands. She deserved to point at lazy lizards!

He turned his attention back to Sir William’s words, and one phrase had caught on something in his mind.

"Her Majesty?" he asked. "THE Queen Regnant?"

Sir William stood taller still.

Around them, the other three Source Lifeforms who had fought at Chernobyl appeared, materializing from their own transit through THE Undefined Gaps, and the twelve Relictus that had answered Sir William’s call settled onto the grasslands behind them, taking their places among the lounging native Relictus with the ease of beings returning home. The full party that had escaped Chernobyl reassembled in THE Hallowed Demesne, and Sir William spoke into their gathering with the gravity of someone introducing the being he answered to above all others.

"Her Majesty, Victoria," he said. "THE Queen Regnant of THE Hallowed Demesne and many other regions of THE Source Lands. She is the one who unified the Source Lifeforms of these regions of THE Source Lands under a single banner, in an age when they moved as scattered powers without common cause, each pursuing their own survival and their own ascension and answering to nothing but themselves."

"She gathered them. She gave them a standard to serve and an order to belong to, and she did it not through conquest but through the simple fact of what she was, a being so undeniable that the proud and the powerful chose to follow her rather than continue alone."

He let the weight of it settle.

"She is the First Sword of Existence. THE Origin Sword. The one from whom the designation itself descends, the being whose example defined what it means to be a blade of existence that serves THE Primordial Source and follows its own Way. Every Sword that has ever been sworn was sworn in the tradition she began." He looked at Noah directly.

"And you have more than shown your capability to be a Sword of Existence. What you did in Chernobyl exceeded what any trial would have asked of you. You demonstrated something that the Swords of Existence have never seen a candidate demonstrate. There is no further trial required. You can be sworn in her name, and take your Oath, today."

...!

Oh?

Noah’s eyes shone brightly as he turned the introduction over in his mind.

THE Origin Sword. The First Sword of Existence. A being who had unified millions of Source Lifeforms under a single banner not through conquest but through the sheer undeniability of what she was!
