Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 1314 Like Welcoming Tomorrow's Sun

"—Don Quixote."

Aiwass summoned his most loyal knight.

"Your knight..."

Gone was the previous energy and high-pitched voice; instead, a hint of weariness lingered, yet a more composed and resolute tone rang out: "Don Quixote de la Mancha, summoned... to fight for you."

That was the knight who had already awakened from his dream.

But in his heart, he still believed in that false legend.

As Inanna vanished into a golden vortex, Don Quixote reappeared, enveloped in a silvery-gray glow.

Silver-gray, a symbol of lies and falsehood—

Gray is the color closest to "miracle white"; silver is the color that best reflects the rainbow light that symbolizes hope.

"Distort reality."

Aiwass commanded, "Speak—"

"This land has never died."

The voices of Aiwass and Don Quixote fell in unison.

In that instant, the very nature of this desert seemed to change. A coldness and desolation that had persisted for tens of thousands of years was dispelled by the spring breeze, like the harsh winter.

Immediately afterwards, Aiwass summoned the next Great Sin Beast.

The Book of Laws was being opened faster and faster, and the summoning became a continuous action:
"—Aleister!"

"Do you need me to lend a hand?"

Aleister asked with concern, "I also possess some authority over creation."

"Thank you, but no need... Khelchin!"

"—Khelchin has come as summoned, my lord."

A mechanical voice replied, "Unfortunately, we can't be of much help."

“You yourselves are my help—Venez!”

"Go for it, my master..."

Vines' mature, husky voice, accompanied by a low laugh, rang out: "I never thought I'd be a part of this miracle..."

At Aiwass's command, vortexes were created and then extinguished.

Each time a Great Beast of Sin departs, a rune of the same color as it appears and then disappears beside Aiwass.

At this point, Aiwass had already performed five summons.

"And so, the final..."

—And the very first one.

Aiwas reached out and grasped the last one—the only one that was still a transparent chip and had not yet awakened the Great Sin Beast.

"...Lia."

Aiwass called out the name of Yulia's other half, the name of the Flame Butterfly.

A girl in a black dress and with embers burning at the ends of her hair emerged from a vortex of flames.

The power that once felt almost invincible and filled me with a sense of security... now seems rather weak in the face of other great sin beasts that have awakened and possess divinity.

She glanced at Aiwass and suddenly smiled knowingly.

“My brother… is truly amazing.”

Lia looked down at the "cracked desert" and said softly, "It's just a pity that Yulia couldn't witness this scene."

"A miracle is a beauty that everyone remembers. She will see it."

Aiwass laughed: "Because this is the ultimate art—"

As he spoke, he canceled Leah's summons.

As the girl in the black dress vanished from the flames once more, Aiwass completed the ritual that had never been performed before.

Behind him, six runes of different colors appeared simultaneously and spun rapidly, transforming into a blazing white halo that formed the outer edge of the Aiwass Halo.

Then, more complex runes emerged from the outer edge of the halo and spread in all directions.

It looked like tree branches, or two enormous deer antlers.

A double-sided card, half black and half white, appeared before Aiwass and began to spin.

Aiwass reached out and touched the card.

The Great Sin: Dawn of Aiwass

Reversed: Ouroboros

[Required: None (5)] [Immediate, Enchant, Summon, Lasting Effect]

[Effect: Transforms the user into the Beast of Pride, Dawn Aiwass, who is considered a summoned creature; this effect can only be used when all other six Great Sin Beasts are on cooldown; Dawn Aiwass can copy the effects of any other Great Sin Beast; if the copied creature has lost its combat ability or cannot be summoned again, this effect can be cast again.]

[Effect: When Dawn of Aiwass enters the field, or whenever a new enemy enters the field, automatically deals massive damage to the enemy; this damage is considered as releasing "Paradise Lost"]

[Authority: Control over the four elemental domains, compilation of etheric magic]

His hand touched the white side of the card.

Then, the card seemed to grow bigger, or it was as if Aiwas himself had shrunk.

He was sucked in directly, and at the same moment emerged from the other side of the card—

It was as if what he was touching was not a card, but a "mirror".

At this moment, Aiwass had transformed into someone with black hair and black eyes, exactly like the Celestials.

His robes transformed into black robes resembling those of a cardinal, his wings became six black wings, and the light runes extending from his head like antlers were extinguished by darkness. The halo behind him also turned black... only the halo itself had transformed into a purple halo wrapped in red lightning.

Her once gentle smile now appeared somewhat arrogant.

—This appearance is exactly the same as that of the Celestial Division!
An extremely ominous darkness enveloped this world.

But at this moment.

Kara.

It was like the sound of lightly stepping on thin ice.

"……snort."

A crack suddenly appeared on Aiwas's arrogant face.

A voice rang out from beneath the face: "Is this the great sin of arrogance... nothing more than this."

As soon as he finished speaking, as if a mirror had shattered, Aiwass's transformation completely vanished!

Not only were his robes, hair color, and eye color restored... but even the six pairs of black wings behind him shattered and transformed into enormous six-colored wings that were more than three times larger than his original size.

The top pair is brown and cyan, the middle pair is red and blue, and the bottom pair is white and black.

Apart from that, the only difference was that the halo, light wheel, and runes that symbolized divinity behind Aiwass had all disappeared without a trace... as if he had returned to being a mortal.

But at this moment, he undoubtedly holds the true power of the Heavenly Court.

The power to control the four elements of the material world is flowing within him.

As Aiwas slowly reached out and grasped the pearl oyster.

The power to change the world was truly in his hands.

It all felt like a dream... yet it was reality.

"If one possesses the power to change the world... then one should do these things."

Aiwas said in a low voice, only he could hear it.

He waved his hand, and the Star Ice that sealed away old memories flew up on its own, like shooting stars heading towards the distant sea.

Yuantian Si.

amber.

Lingpo Celestial Master.

Gray Sky Division.

Geometry.

"—Let's break free from the shackles of the past."

By combining the power of four Celestial Masters and one Pillar God, Aiwass waved his hand and proclaimed loudly.

That was a divine declaration.

It roared like thunder, making Aiwas's voice heard by everyone in the entire desert.

"As if severing the shackles of fate—"

Whether they had fallen asleep or not, they were all jolted awake at this moment.

They looked up at the meteor shower in the sky and were so astonished that they were speechless.

"—Let's embrace a new era."

The next moment, the entire desert began to flow!

As if time were flowing backward or accelerating—deserts turned into soil and rocks, soil and rocks solidified into mountains, mountains became oases, clear springs flowed down from the mountains, and fertile soil spread... Even though it was just an uninhabited wasteland, it was full of vitality at this moment.

The dryness in the air turned into moisture, and the Parthian Desert, covering an area of ​​eight million square kilometers—equivalent to forty Avalons—was "erased" from the map at that moment!

"Like welcoming tomorrow's sun—"
