As soon as the two demigods emerged from their chrysalises, Adrian could be seen starig at the large sphere made of pure water before him. The Aqua Elementum has been successfully extracted from the semi divine realm. One could even see that the semi-divine realm has some tears and that it was slowly mending itself.
Adrian knew that having it slowly be restored would be the best thing to do but the mortal realm is also slightly altered because of him. He touched the ground and immediately activated Memory of the World. Images of how this place used to be suddenly flooded into him as he planned on helping the recovery of this place.
As soon as he got all the needed data, Adrian proceeded to apply the energy needed to urge the recovery of the area. The recovery speed could be seen to have doubled in speed as the memory imprinted on it has been set. He then proceeded to look at the Aqua Elementum before him and could only gulp as he never felt something have energy this pure in terms of the water element. Even the titans he met earlier did not have this kind of purity.
"Is that it, guild leader?" Altum’s voice came from behind.
"It is so beautiful!" Renyu’s voice also came from behind.
Adrian turned around and saw the new appearances of his two companions. He could already feel the changes in their bodies to the point that he felt that Altum could defeat him if they were to fight underwater. Altum’ body has become perfectly optimized to battle in water to the point that there are no flaws. The serpentine fish tail actually gives him a powerful boost of swimming speed that you can only catch his shadow underwater.
Renyu, on the other hand, could be seen to have been optimized for spell casting. She has gained a vast mana pool and energy of the ocean in her chest. Adrian could feel the teardrop gem on her chest resonating with the very ocean itself. These two basically evolve to become absolute monsters of the underwater realm. They were basically the perfect pair to traverse the underwater realm.
"It is good that both of you successfully become demigods. Congratulations!" Adrian stated as he gave them a warm smile and a thumbs up.
"We would not have done it without you." Altum stated even though he knew how they got here.
"It was not my effort that both of you have cecome this strong. All of it was both of your efforts and I merely have a slight push. So, I hope that you forget how I basically made a spartan training session earlier for both of you." Adrian stated with a joking manner.
"We have already finished what we needed to do, guild leader. Please carry on with your task." Renyu stated as she knew that Adrian was not yet done with the Aqua Elementum.
Adrian nodded and turned his attention back to the Aqua Elementum. The actual elementum was not yet ready to be taken as it was still drawing back the remaining bits and pieces of it from the semi divine realm. He might have fully separated the main bulk of it but the small pieces of it are still seeping back to the main body. You can even see the small droplets of pure water returning back to its main body.
It was not just Altum and Renyu that were observing the what is happening. The Titan Oceanus and the Titaness Tethys were also watching clearly. They were also in awe of the Aqua Elementum as they feel that this pure water sphere is actually something older than them. It was clear that the Mediator of Death did not just want it for some simple reason but they cannot really say they own it as it merely landed on their semi divine realm years ago.
The Aqua Elementum then became a still sphere of pure water which means that all of its parts have been returned back to it. The semi divine realm has also been fixed as a result of wating for the Aqua Elementum to become complete. Adrian then held the item that takes the elementums in the air.
The Aqua Elementum that was at least five meters in diameter suddenly shrunk back down to the size of a marble. The Aqua Elementum then attached itself unto the incomplete relic and rotated around like the Flame Elementum. Adrian felt that he achieved something great and had a smile on his face but also remembered where the other elementums were located.
"I can do this. Small steps after all." Adrian thought as he looked on the brighter side.
"Congrats, guild leader! You finally obtained it!" Altum shouted.
"Congrats, guild leader." Renyu also added.
"Thanks! This is a team effort as we all achieved something that made us stronger." Adrian stated as the two titans suddenly manifested before them.
Before Altum and Renyu would have instinctively bowed their heads towards the two of them, but they were now able to control their bodies even at the presence of powerful divine beings. The two of them still showed respect by bowing slightly but it was no longer due to coercion. The two titans also smiled at the interaction because this meant that they truly showed respect and not forced respect.
"Thank you for inviting us into your domain despite the rather abrupt visit." Adrian stated as he also wanted to say something else but he knew that the two titans were not saying anything as they were also thinking it through.
Adrian could slightly figure out bits and pieces on why the sudden seclusion of the two titans despite them being very much healthy. Adrian could guess that it might have been something done by the enemy that attacked Mount Olympus. He did not want to meddle in that kind of thing anymore and he already gave tasks to the priests of the underwater churches. Any more and he would be overstepping his bounds.
"We thank the two divine beings for their welcome. We have achieved our ascension thanks to the grace of the both of you." Altum and Renyu stated as they bowed deeply compared to the casual bow earlier.
"The two of you have no need to show that much gratitude as it is only natural to reward those who succeed on our tests. You have earned the right to those items as soon as you stepped inside of this domain." The Titan of the Ocean Oceanus stated.
"We thank you once again for the hospitality. We will now return back to the world’s ocean." Adrian stated as he gave a bow one last time and the two titans also did as well.
The Titan Oceanus then lifted his hand and a gate platform appeared from below the sands. The gate platform was different from the others and Adrian could clearly tell that this one was made different. It was more advanced compared to the other one they used to come here. Adrian wanted to check and research it but it was time to move on as he needs to find four more elementums.
The three of them went onto the gate platform and they were sucked inside a water vortex then spat out from the other side. When they returned back to the War Council, a group of blessed guards could be seen marching towards them. The sudden presence of three demigod level beings made the blessed guards alert as they rushed into the gate platform.
When the blessed guards saw that it was Adrian’s group and recognized them, all of them let down their guard. They were to treat champions with utmost respect after all and they also need to be respectful to fully pledged demigods. The three of them exuded so much pressure that even the blessed guards felt the heaviness in the area.
"We celebrate your return." One of the blessed guards that knew them stated.
Adrian then told them that they did not need to stand in ceremony and such. One of them even told him what happened with the churches. It seems that the two Titans and other gods related to them have scolded all of the clergy. They began to scramble and hunt down the remnant members of the Followers of the Watery Abyss.
The purge began with the Scylla Kingdom and the Merfolk Kingdom but it also reached the other places. The Scylla Queen and the Merfolk King were so energetic in their pursuit that they even erased ministers that only had slight interaction with those dark god followers. They cleaned up their courts and made sure no one would ever follow the dark gods or distorted gods ever again.
Adrian knew that the two titans must have said something or sent an oracle to make it happen. He already felt that the choice of the two titans has already started a new era for the underwater realm. It seems that the other gods that were passive have become active because of this as well.
