Chapter 958 Samsara Champion
"Aion of the Human Lineage is the winner!"
The Revenge Thearch's words did not just spread across the coliseum but reached every corner of the Daybreak Universe!
Aion, the ultimate dark horse, the man no one had heard of before the tournament, defeated Noah Daybreak and became the Samsara Champion!
"¡AHHHHH!"
A resounding sound emerged from every Sector as people began to cheer and clasped their hands, celebrating the rise of the Samsara Champion.
Aion showed a large smile before raising his fist just as the light in his eyes vanished. His body was standing, but he had already fallen unconscious.
The Sacred Kings stared at Aion and could not help but feel awe at the skill and willpower of the man. It was clear to them that Aion's real age might be higher than theirs, and he must have been an ancient monster in his past life, so they did not look at him like a youngster.
Venganza generated two streams of Depravita Aura that fell on Noah and Aion, healing their wounds and waking them up.
Noah slowly opened his eyes, and there was confusion in them, as the last thing he remembered was a fist, but as he saw Aion standing, everything became clear.
"I lost."
The young Neo-Demon could not help but sight as he understood that he lost the battle. However, he was able to get over the fact very fast.
Daybreak Force was the ability to rise beyond pain and suffering, to see the light at the end of every tunnel no matter how dark these ones were, so losing a battle could not break Noah's fighting spirit.
"I hope we can have a new fight in the future."
Noah spoke those words, rose from the ground, and stretched his hand, but Aion did not respond. He frowned, but when he saw the expression of the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage, he almost burst into laughter.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe energy of the Revenge Thearch healed every wound on Aion's body, but right after regaining consciousness, he fell asleep.
Noah did not blame Aion since, during the fight, he understood a little more about the nature of The Flow, and it was an awe-inspiring and incredibly complex power.
Unlike the Daybreak Force that Noah could use instinctively, Aion had to do countless calculations every second as he controlled the power of The Flow, especially when using techniques like that revolving defensive force field.
It was clear to Noah that after Aion's attained victory, this one relaxed, and all the fatigue came crashing down, pushing him into a dream.
Venganza also noticed the state of Aion and sighed before shaking his head. He had to crown the winner, but this one was sleeping, making things awkward for him.
"Cough!"
The Revenge Thearch faked a cough, waking up Aion. Then he waved his hand, sending Noah out of the arena.
Aion shook his head a little as he looked around him. He smiled toward the Revenge Thearch and scratched his head in awkwardness. No matter how amazing, he was still a life form and got tired, sometimes so much that he fell asleep.
Ezequiel rose from his set, appearing next to Venganza, and then both stared at the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage as their auras flooded the sky.
Then the Nine Sacred Kings also rose from their thrones, standing behind the two Thearchs.
Aion adopted a solemn attitude, and silence reigned in the coliseum. The crowning of the champion of the First Samsara Tournament was an extraordinary event and would be marked in the history of the Daybreak Universe until the end of time.
Venganza and Ezequiel extended their arms, making a pillar of black-white lightning and dark red flames the ground beneath Aion's feet, raising this one into the sky and above everybody else!
Aion stood right in front of the Thearchs, and although his power in his past life was immense, the pressure the duo unleashed was suffocating. He took a deep breath before bending one knee, assuming a knight's stance.
"Aion of the Human Lineage, you stand at the pinnacle of what it means to be a warrior of the Daybreak Universe. The universal forces that you master and the battle skills you deploy are beyond the realm of the divine.
However, your willpower and perseverance are what granted you victory, allowing you to stand at the peak of all things. Just like the Samsara Thearch did, rising from certain doom over and over again, never letting anyone else dictate your destiny."
Ezequiel extended his right hand, allowing a stream of golden blood to emerge from his body and forming a king's robe around the Neo-Demon with the Human Lineage.
Not only was that robe majestic, but it was also a divine artifact capable of protecting Aion from the full power attack of a True Rank 10 life form before shattering and sending the Neo-Demon to safety.
"I, Ezequiel Invictus, Empyrean Overlord of the Emptiness Truth, Right Hand of the Samsara Thearch, Eternal Guardian of the Daybreak Universe, grant you the title of Sacred Lord of The Flow!"
"ALL HAIL THE SACRED LORD OF THE FLOW!"
The Nine Sacred Kings shouted, sending a command to every living being in the Daybreak Universe.
Everybody rose and shouted in unison, no matter who they were, their background, or their power.
"WE SALUTE THE SACRED LORD OF THE FLOW!"
Those words echoed across the Daybreak Universe, making the sky tremble.
Venganza waited for a few seconds before extracting a piece of his soul and using it as the basis for a sword.
"The blood of the ancient and forgotten Human Lineage runs through your veins. Even in the mind of Thearchs, it was an impractical bloodline, but your victory has proven there is no such thing as useless.
In the right hands, any weapon can sever the sky and open a new path full of glory and might.
Aion, Samsara Champion! May your legacy echo through the ages, inspiring countless souls to reach for the apex and discover their true potential."
The soul sword left Venganza's hand and appeared in Aion's waist. That was a physical manifestation since the true treasure resided inside the Neo-Demon's soul and would protect even from Rank 10 life forms.
"I, Venganza, Leader of Sundered Night, Empyrean Overlord of the Eternal Flame of Revenge, Epoch of the Eldritch, and Patriarch of the Depravita Race, grant you the title of Avatar of a New Beginning!"
"ALL HAIL THE AVATAR OF A NEW BEGINNING!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Nine Sacred Kings shouted, and the rest of the Daybreak Universe immediately responded.
"WE SALUTE THE AVATAR OF A NEW BEGINNING!!!"
After that, the full power of the Eternal Flame of Revenge and the Emptiness Truth emerged from the soul of the Thearchs, fusing into the sky.
"THUMP!"
Thunder and lightning echoed across the sky, and both Fourth Realm forces began to fuse, giving birth to a unique treasure. A black crown with golden runes bathed in lightning and fire materialized.
The sound of bells filled the air as if signalizing the birth of a divine treasure and celebrating the glorious destiny of the man that earned it.
It did not have the defensive powers of the soul sword or king's robe, but it was virtually indestructible since its essence was the Primordial Essence of the Emptiness Thearch and Revenge Thearch.
The crown slowly descended from the sky and, on its own, positioned itself on Aion's head.
"RISE SAMSARA CHAMPION!"
Aion stood up, and his aura was as radiant as the sun in the sky. The robe, sword, and crown made him resemble a divine king, above all mundane matters, whose sight only searched for the path beyond the heavens.
He looked down, and when he saw the way all the people in the coliseum were looking at him and thought of the eyes of the trillions across the Daybreak Universe, even he could not help but feel moved.
Their eyes showed no envy or greed, only admiration, and respect. The purity of their hearts and minds was something Aion never expected could be possible for an entire universe, yet it happened right in front of him.
"It is an honor to become the Samsara Champion. This universe is a utopia where life thrives, and there is no fear about tomorrow.
Calling this place my home is one of the greatest gifts I attained in my entire life, and I will destroy anything that dares to threaten it!
Every one of you is my family, and I will strive to protect you and make sure the name of the Daybreak Universe spreads across the Emptiness, generating fear in all those that oppose us, and hope in the ones that seek safe haven from the darkness."
Aion's eyes burned with silver flames, and his entire body glowed with golden light as he shouted those words.
Smiles appeared in the Thearchs and Sacred Kings as they heard that and felt the honesty inside the Neo-Demon's soul. If that was Aion's true intention, his origin could not matter less.
