Aether Beasts

Long ago a great calamity struck the earth, destroying much of it and merging what remained with pieces of other worlds. With these worlds came Aether, a new form of energy that can allow one to transcend the bounds of normal mortality and human limitations. In a world where humans absorb the essence of aether beasts to gain power, Aiden Hawke joins the class of humans known as arcanists, people who defeat aether beasts and absorb their essence into cores they forge within themselves, and who infuse themselves with the aether that permeates the world around them to increase the power of their body and mind. However, unlike most, Aiden will find that he holds a unique gift and that his journey as an arcanist will not be so simple.

Chapter 204

Kai stared at the retreating backs of the jungle queen and Sandra, still in shock at what had just happened.

'Am I dreaming?'

When he had first volunteered to go on the expedition and basically lead it for the Umbrin clan he had never expected any of this. At most he had thought Pate may learn something and improve, but not that he'd get an opportunity like this. If the gods were real then they must have been looking down upon him and his family favorably indeed.

Sandra had come to visit the clan area far sooner than he had thought, especially considering what had happened yesterday, and though she had been polite, he could tell she didn't really care for any of it, though she had seemed interested in Pate, which was good.

"Brother, was that a good decision?"

Kai turned to Pate. "This is a once in a lifetime chance. If you come out victorious then our family will rise to new heights, and you will marry into the main family, imagine it."

"And if we lose?" Pate questinoed.
