Omega Summoner

Chapter 1557 Side Stories: Shepherd Of Lost Souls III



“She must not do that or else she might become an undead. Even worse would be her soul perishing which means she will no longer be able to go to the afterlife. If that happens then people who knew her would eventually forget her.” Adrian stated as there are dire consequences of souls vanishing.

“My time has already passed my dear grandson. I am sorry that I will not be able to see you have a child which is why you must make sure that you get married soon. A love child is not bad as this is a new generation.” The old woman stated.

“Grandma!” The grandson reacted with embarrassment.

“I am just messing with you, but I am also very much serious.” The old woman stated as she hugged her grandson or one last time.

“Can you not go?” The grandson asked once more but her grandmother only answered him with a smile.

“I shall now proceed with the blessing.” Adrian stated as he placed his hand on the old woman’s forehead.

A light suddenly came out of the old woman’s forehead. This was the manifestation of her good karma that Adrian has gotten. He used the remaining good karma that the old woman has and then formed it into a materialization of her talent. π“΅π™žπ™—π™§π™šπ’‚π™™.π“¬π’π’Ž

This is the materialization of talent that the God of Death Abaddon has told Adrian when karma is used. This would vary from individual to individual as talent is not something that can be copied. Adrian was about to use his energy to perform a divination of the talent when he heard a giggle.

He did not know where that giggle came from, but he suddenly saw a greenish silhouette of a lady appear before him. The old woman and the grandson could not see this being, but Adrian could feel some connection with this green ghost lady. Adrian cannot attack or defend in this form as he would waste the karma if he does so now.

Adrian also felt that the green ghost lady did not have any malevolence to her. In fact, the green ghost lady has some divinity to her. The green ghost lady looked at Adrian and patted his head like a mother before sprinkling something on the good karma that was forming. The good karma of the lady suddenly became better and fuller.

“It seemed to have grown in size.” Adrian thought as the green ghost lady vanished after sprinkling something at the good karma.

The good karma finally took its intended form, but it was glowing in gold. The good karma took the form of a small tree with the form of an old caring woman clutching a book. The book has a title called Herbology. The talent that manifested was something that Adrian did not expect as it was glowing in gold which is something that only happens if the talent is at least mythical in tier.

“This is the gift that your grandmother has blessed you. Make sure to let it bloom and use it for the good of the people.” Adrian stated as the good karma manifestation suddenly shot towards the grandson.

The grandson suddenly felt some sort of energy pass through him that made him float like air. The grandson also felt the love of his grandmother flowing through him which made him cry. Seeing that the gift has been given to him, the grandson was now ready to get back to his body.

Adrian flicked the grandson’s forehead and his detached soul suddenly returned to his body. The grandson did not wake up immediately as all that he experienced will feel like a dream to him. A sweet dream that would make waking up a nightmare, but his heard will be healed in the process.

The grandson woke up a few minutes later with tears rolling down from his eyes. The pain of the loss is still there but he was no longer gloomy. In fact, there is some sort of determination on his eyes as Adrian actually saw a golden outline on his eyes. He then received a notification that he could not believe because he now knows why a green ghost lady suddenly appeared earlier.

[The Herbalist of Quaint Village that was supposed to become a Forest Sage has passed but her talents have been passed to her grandson. She would have become a Forest Sage if she abandoned her family, but her heart was akin to pure gold.

Seeing her determination for her only living relative, the Goddess of Life Gaea blessed the talent that would be passed to her grandson. The Herbalist of Quaint Village made sure to always treat those around her with care and a full heart. The heart and love of nature has always been passed to their family as their ancestors were of the Forest People that revered the Gods and Goddesses of Life.

A new bud has been planted to the new generation that will bloom in the future. A glorious new chapter will be written in the pages of the world.]

“I am now ready.” The old woman stated as she gladly offered her hand to Adrian.

Adrian took the hand of the old woman gently as she looked at her one last time with a smile. Adrian opened a gate, but it did not look eerie or dark in any way. The gate that appeared was full of flowers and fauna and it was extremely inviting.

Adrian did not do this intentionally as it just happened naturally upon his activation of the gate to the afterlife. Adrian did not think that there is nothing wrong though as everything is under the effect of the system. He is only the one escorting the souls and not one that sets their destination.

Adrian entered the gate with the old woman, and they were sent to a paradise like place that Adrian has never been before. It was not the usual dark and eerie part of the underworld where the souls go to first but a beautiful forest paradise.

“Hello mom!” A beautiful lady with clothes made of woven flora and fauna suddenly appeared before them.

“Daughter!” The old woman stated as she went to hug her own daughter.

[You have done your job. You have completed the quest: Deliver Lost Souls to the Afterlife that has been given to you.]

[The Nether Gauge will regenerate Nether Energy faster by 1%.]

Adrian no longer needs to do anything because he has already completed the quest. He now knows that the being that came to him as a green ghost earlier might be a goddess of life under the Goddess of Life Gaea. There are times when chosen people that was destined to become something in life dies because of unexpected causes or not achieving something because of circumstances.

The old woman was special as she was someone that the gods and goddesses of life become a Forest Sage. Her talent and destiny are now passed onto her grandson which Adrian could use in the future when he awakens.

“Since I have free time… maybe I should explore the place as this is a place that I have not yet gone to.” Adrian muttered but he just wants his mind off the things he witnessed or else he would have remembered the tear-jerking moments.

Adrian walked until he actually reached a place with a river, and he suddenly followed that river to arrive at a vast sea. He did not know that he was actually being called by the other beings to not go to the river and follow it downwards. It seems that Adrian has reached a different realm as he can no longer see the forest when he turned back.

Adrian realized that he was no longer standing on ground as all he sees is the sea. Adrian wanted to escape back to the mortal realm, but he suddenly felt trapped as something or someone was locked onto him. Adrian did not notice but a dark shadow has already locked onto him, and it was a being that was none other than the sea itself.

[You are being watched by a powerful being.]

“Ili-ili tulog anay… Wala diri imong nanay… Kadto tienda bakal papay… Ili-ili tulog anay”

Adrian heard a song that gave him goosebumps as he sensed a being suddenly rising from the waters. The waters itself rose as a large feminine face which is beautiful, but she was someone that was gigantic because she was the sea herself. The figure that Adrian can see right now is just a manifestation of her being she created so that he can recognize her.

“Hello little one. Have you been lost? This is a first that someone actually wondered my realm when they usually avoid it. Tell me… are you lost mu cute little one?” The beautiful maiden stated but Adrian now knows who she was.

[You are under the presence of the Goddess of Death and Sea, Magwayen.]
