Ruler's Awakening: Inheritor of the SSS-Rank Dimensional Talent

Aerith was still pointing her hand towards the sky, holding back the pillar of black light that she thought was about to cancel out the dark power of Aaron's Dark Azazel.

This was the first time for Eloise to witness the existence of a power beyond what she thought.

She did not expect the healing method Aaron had performed on Emily to bring forth such a rumble of magic.

"We have to help Aerith to—"

"No!" Aerith shouted, rejecting Eloise's proposal.

Eloise was shocked, as were Aldo and the rest of the Sky Sword 25th. Aerith explained why she refused Eloise and the others to help with the defense.

"This is the power of darkness. The nature of the power of darkness is to excel over the power of light. If you help, it creates a weakness in this protective dome," Aerith explained.

"So what can we do now?" asked Eloise.

"Shut up and stay alert. Don't help me!" said Aerith.

The fellow members of the 25th Sky Sword looked at each other in a look of confusion, never having known about that information.

It was natural for Aerith to think that they didn't know, the power of darkness wasn't something that could be explained in the history books of magic.

The power of darkness was a disgrace to the people of Earth.

That led to the little information they could find out about this power. In contrast, the inhabitants of Visiri are the exact opposite of Earth.

They considered someone with the element of light power to be a sin —including the other four earth elements.

Aerith felt the magic pressure from the black pillar of light grow stronger and stronger, causing her to fall to her knees on the floor of the sky.

Jovani and her two aides arrived near Sky Sword 25th, they saw that Eloise could do nothing about it.

Max arrived with his members, wondering why the intensity of the black power was much stronger than what he had imagined.

Jovanni was silent. He suspected that someone with a high tier mage was doing something at the Sky Sword 25th headquarters.

"In that case, let me help the area outside the headquarters. I'm worried that this energy could affect the entire city," Eloise explained to Aerith.

Aerith silently did not respond. That did not include helping her strengthen the dome of darkness, so Aerith did not forbid Eloise from doing that.

The woman invited all the members of the 25th Sky Sword to leave the base to do their duties.

They all split up and brought up the combined protective wall of the three main groups. The barrier was shaped like a wall separating the Sky Sword 25th headquarters from the city.

In the event of an unexpected explosion, the energy blast would be blocked by the wall and the city would be protected.

Seeing Eloise fly out of the base, Jovanni and Max quickly approached Eloise. They asked Eloise about this incident, but she chose to remain silent.

She didn't want Emily's curse to spread among the other groups, especially with Aaron helping her recover.

'I'd better not say much about this to them,' Eloise explained.

"You guys just help me with this protective wall. I'll tell you everything after this incident is over," Eloise emphasized.

Jovanni and Max nodded. The three of them cooperated with each other to invoke the magic of the protective wall to protect the city and all the people in it.

The residents looked up at the sky, especially at the Sky Sword 25th headquarters encased in a maroon protective dome.

Pandemonium ensued, and they panicked and feared because the intensity of the black pillar of light was so strong.

The other members of the three main groups were assigned to evacuate the population. They were ordered to leave the city to the pre-prepared bunkers.

"Don't panic. The three leaders of the three main groups are working hard to resolve this!"

"Line up in an orderly fashion, the city bunkers are enough to accommodate the entire city's population."

"Prioritize women and children. Separate them from the ranks of the men."

Inside Emily's room, Aaron could see that the rash on Emily's body was starting to fade. The girl's screams of pain had subsided leaving only a few small rashes on some parts of her body.

The rotten smell like a carcass that was originally clearly smelled, now no longer smells in that place.

What Azazel said was true, the power of the black darkness of the ring of darkness was able to withstand the suffering of the curse on Emily's body.

'I'm impressed with you, Aaron. You can control the power of black darkness well,' Azazel praised, looking through Aaron's eyes.

'The torment of this curse is likely to recur. Is there any way to stop this torment completely?' Aaron asked.

'There is.

'You must sacrifice a ring of darkness for the girl to wear,' explained Azazel.

'As long as she wears the ring, the torment of her curse will not recur.

'I don't want to believe you, but I have no other choice. You'd better tell me the truth, Azazel!" said Aaron.

'I may be cruel, but I'm not a liar!'

The channeling of black dark energy stopped when Emily's eyes opened. The girl said that her condition had fully recovered, no longer feeling as much pain as before.

"Thank you for helping me, Aaron," Emily replied, her body as fit as when she woke up after a good night's sleep.

Aaron nodded, stopping the energy channeling and squatting down beside Emily. The rash on the girl's body disappeared completely, the foul odor also disappeared. She was back to being Emily as usual.

"Thank goodness you're okay."

The healing using the black darkness energy was complete. The black pillar of light that was originally about to destroy Aerith's maroon dome faded away on its own. Aerith could breathe a sigh of relief, she stood up straight as usual.

"Looks like Aaron managed to recover Emily," Aerith explained.

Not only Aerith was relieved, but the entire town felt the same way. Eloise witnessed that moment. She quickly flew back to the base and ran over to Emily's room.

The door to the room opened. She saw Emily sitting relaxed and full of laughter while having a warm conversation with Aaron.

The pain in her body disappeared, the foul smell was no longer there. That was a good sign for Emily's condition.

"Thank goodness you've recovered, Emily," Eloise explained.@@novelbin@@

"This is all thanks to Aaron. If he hadn't saved me, I might have died," Emily praised.

Eloise turned her head to the side, staring at Aaron with both cheeks flushed red. She stepped closer to the man and surprisingly hugged Aaron, even though Aaron was still in his half-Dark Azazel form.

"Thank you. I'm so grateful to you, Aaron," Eloise whispered, burying her face in Aaron's chest.

Aerith saw Aaron being hugged by Eloise. With a swift movement, Aerith arrived at the room and separated the two, keeping Eloise away from Aaron.

"Behave normally and don't overdo it. Do you understand?" said Aerith.

'Right! I forgot, Aaron loves Aerith. It was stupid of me to expect more from him,' Eloise explained.

"Alright. I'm sorry, I'm just touched by what Aaron has done," replied Eloise.

Surprisingly, Aerith suddenly fell backwards in a semi-conscious state. Aaron caught Aerith's body and checked her energy condition, her dark energy was drained a lot, her body looked transparent a lot.

"You're using too much dark energy in your body. You should rest," Aaron replied.

"It's okay, Aaron. I'm fine."

"No, you're not. You need to rest."

Since Aerith couldn't bring up the dimensional crack, Aaron had to do it. He tore through the dimensional boundary and brought up the dimensional crack.

Aaron stepped off while carrying Aerith, he said he would return to Emily to do something.

Aaron flew off with Aerith in his arms. He rested Aerith on his throne, useful for recovering her dark energy again.

"Are you going to be okay?" asked Aerith.

"Yes. There's nothing for you to worry about anymore. I'll just do a little thing for Emily."

"Okay."

Aerith closed her eyes, then fell asleep while absorbing Dark Dimension energy. That was how the woman restored her condition to normal.

After watching Aerith fall asleep and recover her body. Aaron reopened the dimensional crack and arrived in Emily's room.

He needed to make sure that the torment of the curse would never appear again on Emily, it would be dangerous if Aaron was not in this city when the curse recurred.

"Is there something you should do to Emily?" asked Eloise, sitting on Emily's bed.

Aaron removed the ring of darkness from the finger of his left hand. He handed it to Emily and asked her to put it on.

When Emily put on the ring of darkness, she felt the pain again with her hand stiff and hard to move.

Aldo came back to Emily's room, telling Eloise that the rumbling magic had returned.

"What? Could it be because you put the ring on Emily's finger?" asked Eloise.

'What happened, Azazel?' asked Aaron, silent in response to Eloise's question.

'The girl's body rejected the presence of the power of black darkness. Her body can't supply black darkness energy to the ring,' said Azazel.

'Rumbling magic appears to destroy the girl's body!' Azazel emphasized.

'What can I do about this?' asked Aaron.

'Use my spear and supply a large amount of dark energy to the ring,' said Azazel.

'But you have to do one thing!

'What?

'You must hold the black pillar of light with your body. Now, the stakes have risen. If you fail, both you and the girl will die!'
