《The Aria Chronicles》Meeting
Advertisement
Ramon is coming, there is barely a few kilometers distance between us, and it is closing very speedily.
Ramon had a soul seal placed inside me; it can restrict me from betraying him and also help him track me. When he placed the seal on me, the effect of the restriction was minute on me due to the effect of the tower and my bloodline.
Now with breakthrough and advancement in my bloodline, I could easily betray him without suffering any backlash and even could track him back through the seal, which I was not able to do back when I was Level 1.
“Gasp!” “Ramon!”
A few minutes later, I heard the rustle and the next moment Ramon appeared in front of my eyes, seeing him appear all of sudden, I acted like I would have when suddenly he appeared in front of me without my knowledge.
I perfectly created the reaction of shock and unbelievability as I saw him suddenly appear in front me. He did not come close to me and managed an appropriate distance between us as he looked at me.
He seemed surprised seeing me or the change I had in me, as not only had I leveled up, but my beauty had also increased by far that even without the lust aura which had been in control under the Bracelet, I have become beautiful enough to catch one off guard by my beauty.
“Where were you gone for the last eight days?” he asked directly, hearing that I produce the reactions of being stunned by the question before I put a sad expression on my face as if I am remembering the painful memories.
“I...Two half-bloods abducted me.” I said with a shaking voice, hearing that his expressions changed a little, but he had not moved an inch closer to me, seeing that I couldn't help but smile as he is employing the psychological trick of using the dangerous environment to get truthful answers from me.

Though it could not be said, he believed me completely, but he still believed me some, and as soon as I provided him with enough answers, he will believe me enough.
“How do you escape?” he asked with a straight face, “I killed them,” I answered this time, keeping my voice a little stable.
“How can you kill them, from my invitation the abductors of yours were powerful Viscounts, and hadn’t they taken you directly to their camp?” he asked multiple questions in a single sentence, building more psychological pressure.
“Th..They wanted to e..enjoy me first before they took to their camp and I had killed when we were h..having s..sex.” I answer shakingly. His eyes flashed a little in understanding. I am very aware that he is aware of the nature of my power, and knew how much people get lost during the sex.
“How can I not sense you before the evening?” He asked, hearing this question I couldn't help but smile inside. This is the most important question and answer that will make him trust my words sufficiently.
“They made me wear this; they said with the help of it they would be able to block the soul revealing my location to you,” I said as I took out thumb-size black rock which is attached crudely to the string.
He took the rock from my hand and started to observe, and a few seconds later, his expression changed drastically as he began to look at the black rock with starry eyes, “Soul Isolating Stone.” he whispered as he looked at the stone.
The Soul Isolating Stone is a very precious material; it is used in the construction of Soul type artifacts. Just tiny bits Soul Isolating Stone could increase the power of any Soul Artifact by 20%.

And the piece I gave him is a quite big and worth insane amount; this is the reason why after much thinking I decided to conceal the existence of the cavern it is made of Soul Isolating Stones, that amount Soul Isolating Stones is enough to make even Demigods heart burst with greed.
“Let’s go; it is very dangerous here.” He said and at the same time as a knife released from my hands, which pierce through Viscounts Orcs head, which was coming toward us sneakily.
It is likely attracted by my gasp filled loud voice, it had come a few minutes ago and was lying in wait to search for an opportunity to launch an attack, but unfortunately, it had guessed Ramons power wrong and made a huge mistake of targeting us.
We started walking through the forest; our speed is neither fast nor slow; it is perfect; we have come across some monsters while walking through the forest, but they are dead before they realize what had happened.
“How do you break through to Baron, before abduction weren’t you at the High Stage of Knight?” He asked. I knew he would ask this question sooner or later and already prepared an answer for it.
“Yesterday, d...during the s..sex my bloodline somehow advance, it had not only started the breakthrough and it also broke the energy seals they have placed on me which gave me the chance to kill two of them,” I said it again in a shaky voice.
When he heard it, he looked quite shocked as the advancement of the bloodline is no small matter as it brings more benefits than a breakthrough, especially when the bloodline is powerful.
Making advancement in the bloodline is extremely difficult, far more complicated than making a breakthrough in the levels, it can only be made through chance encounters.
“You really don’t know how your bloodline advanced?” he asked as I shook my head. I could see he had some doubts on his face as he did not believe in my explanation, but he did not voice them out.
We continue to walk in silence, and finally, four hours later, we got out of Nimbus Hiss. ‘it is time to tell him about what I heard from the Orc Blood’; this is very sensitive information, and if it does not hold then I might get executed.
From this information about the fate of the two cities and tens of thousands of soldiers lives depends on it, including mine.

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!
