Chapter 562 - A New G.o.ddess Is Born

"The first sword stance I will teach you is the most important one and the basis of all the other attacks. Gravity force strike encompa.s.ses the ability to use gravity in your attacks. This much, as you know, will be very useful when we merge the two sword stances. Watch closely and feel the air around me." Under the gravity spell that was pressing down on top of them, by thousands of times the normal gravity, Lord Ein walked back and forth explaining things to Yana.

Yana watched closely as Lord Ein got into stance. The air around him began to vibrate, and the earth under his feet began to crack under the pressure that was running down on his body. Each time one used the gravity force sword style it covered the user in gravity. This was why Yana had to get used to the weight of gravity, as each one weighed the body down even more.

As the force of gravity continued to weigh him down, he grabbed the hilt of his sword and slashed out. A wave of energy shot forward, slicing through the air, seemingly slicing through time and s.p.a.ce itself. The attack slammed into the side of the wall of the underground training room causing dust and debris to fly everywhere. "Did you see that?"

"Mmm… I think I can do it." Yana replied. She felt like she had a firm grasp on the attack after only watching it once. She had always had a keen eye when it came to sword skills.

"Good, give it a try." Lord Ein nodded and stepped out of the gravity field to give Yana plenty of room.

Yana got into the same sword stance as Lord Ein and felt the air around her. Lord Ein, who was watching her carefully, nodded his head, seeing how firm her stance was even after only seeing him to the attack once, but slowly his eyes opened wide when he felt a tremble in the air. The area around Yana"s body seemed to be contorting and bending s.p.a.ce and time. Slowly Yana"s stance began to change and resembled both gravity force strike and her own sword style.

Yana"s lips parted as the force of gravity weighed her body down. "First stance, in the beginning, there was nothing..."

As Yana spoke her words, a great suction force began to form on the tip of her sword, slowly engulfing the entire thing. The air within the training area began to s.h.i.+ft and race to Yana. Lord Ein actually had to stab his sword into the ground to keep himself from being sucked towards her. An attack with this much strength was more of a final move than a beginning move. Lord Ein couldn"t help but be stunned. He wondered just what kind of genius Yana was to not even use the first strike of his sword stance before merging it with her own. He watched as Yana moved her sword. It was as if time had slowed. As if he was at the edge of a black hole where time was different from the outside.

Yana"s eyes turned black as stars began to form in her eyes. Her stargazer ability had suddenly activated, but it was not pulling power from her lifeforce but from the power of her sword. At this moment and time, it was as if she was able to see everything. Nothing was escaping her vision. Even the microscopic grains of sand that were being sucked towards her did not escape her vision. As the sword attack slashed out, the whole world stood still. The air in front of her in a cone suddenly distorted as Yana"s attack shot forward.

*Boom!*

The whole realm shook. Yana"s attack had shot forward, breaking time and s.p.a.ce, causing a mini big bang to happen sending everything that was sucked towards her flying in all directions. Wave after wave of energy shot out in every direction, causing Lord Ein to need to set up a gravity field around himself in order to protect himself.

Yana"s attack was beyond anything Lord Ein could have ever imagined. She had turned his gravity force strike into something absolutely new. He looked at Yana, whose eyes had now returned to normal with an excited expression. "Girl, you are amazing! Never in my life did I expect anything like that… Girl?"

Lord Ein looked at Yana, who was just standing there when suddenly blood squirted out from every pore in her body as it collapsed to the ground. "Yana!"

It was the same with Gale when she first learned the slash of the beginning, and the same thing happened to Yana when she first learned it, but this time it happened again. Yana"s body was breaking down and rebuilding itself once again. You could call it an evolution of sorts. But this time, it was very different. As Lord Ein ran over to Yana"s side and canceled the gravity field, there was an even greater gravity pressing down on Yana"s body. Her skin was also forming intricate black glowing patterns on her skin. They were wrapping around her entire body, and the more that formed, the stronger the gravity around her got. "This is… Forced evolution?"

"Grandpa!? What happened to Yana!?" Gale had come to check on things after feeling the entire realm shake. But when she arrived, all she saw was Yana lying in a pool of blood and strange markings on her skin.

What the both of them did not realize was that the true form of Yana"s Stargazer bloodline was starting to emerge. They were beings connected to the stars and could see the future, but that was not all. They were part of the universe, and the universe was them.

These happenings did not go unnoticed by a certain old man who appeared in the sky high above Lord Ein"s estate, and this time he was not alone. Another old man wearing black robes and black hair appeared next to him. The two were like yin and yang, one wearing white, the other wearing black. They looked like twins. This was the G.o.d of destruction. "It"s been a while."

"Humph! Always hiding in the void." The old man in white, the G.o.d of creation, snorted.

"If I don"t, you will try to destroy me. Do not think I don"t know what your plans are, but to be honest, I find it all amusing, so I will not intervene." The old man in black, the G.o.d of destruction, replied. "But this was something I had to come to witness myself. To think we would once again see the birth of the G.o.ddess of the Beginning. How many years has it been?"

"It has been too long, the stargazer race was sent into another dimension, sealing them from this plane, but this girl is different from a pure blooded stargazer. She had chimera blood in her from her G.o.dmother making her much stronger than a normal stargazer. Gravity is able to counter time and is able to attract or repel all things. It is something that is fundamental and archaic. Nothing can live without it. Only death is able to counter it.. She really is her daughter even if not bound by blood."
