Reborn as a DRAGON-Chapter 338: Separated at last

In the face of the indomitable darkness mana, the wind and water elements could no longer resist its commanding presence. They faltered in their relentless struggles, their energies subdued by the weight of the pillar that held them captive. Sensing the opportune moment, I summoned forth the cosmic mana, my primary element, to further assert my control over the chaotic situation.

As the cosmic mana cascaded down within my soul space, an ethereal glow suffused the air. The dragon statue stirred with newfound vigor. Its eyes seemed to gleam as it became a conduit for the cosmic mana's immense power.

With a decisive motion, I directed a focused stream of cosmic energy toward the wind element, its path clear and unwavering. The moment the cosmic mana touched the wind element, a profound transformation occurred. In an instant, its form dissipated, torn away from the entangled embrace of the water element.

The wind element, now separated and isolated within the confines of my soul space, was cast to the farthest reaches, a distant corner where its turbulent nature would no longer wreak havoc. A surge of satisfaction welled within me as I witnessed the successful separation of the wind and water elements.

With the wind element banished to its secluded corner, the water element remained under the watchful gaze of the darkness mana. The harmonious dance of the elements inside my soul space had been restored, maintaining the delicate equilibrium.

A sense of tranquility washed over me, and it seemed like I wasn't the only one that felt that way. The colossal water element, freed from the chaotic fusion, exuded a newfound serenity. It glided gracefully through the ethereal currents, its movements fluid and harmonious.

In a joyous display, the water element descended toward the expansive sea that resided within the depths of my soul space. With a gentle splash, it melded seamlessly with the other water elements, their energies intertwining in perfect unity. I could sense its contentment, a deep satisfaction emanating from its essence.

The once tumultuous entity had found solace in the tranquil sanctuary of my soul space. No longer burdened by the conflicting forces that had entangled it, the water element embraced its rightful place within the realm of its elemental kin. Together, they formed a majestic symphony, their essence resonating with the ebb and flow of life causing the sea to grow larger as I felt my entire soul space shake and expand in size.

'Lucky,' I inwardly mumbled happily.

With that taken care of, I turned my attention to the intruder The wind element. Aware of the potential danger posed by it, I focused my attention on its containment within my soul space. Unlike the water element, I lacked a natural affinity for the wind, making it impossible for me to exert direct control over its tempestuous essence. Keeping it confined within the ethereal confines of my soul space carried inherent risks, as its volatile energy could easily disrupt the delicate balance maintained within.

Grateful for the resolution provided by the successful separation of the wind and water elements, I knew that my task was far from complete. The wind element remained an intruder, a disruptive force that required a swift resolution, and it was time to sense it back.

I channeled my soul space's energy into a focused surge. This surge acted as a conduit, bridging the gap between it and the mortal realm, allowing the wind element to be returned to its rightful domain. freewebnove(l)

As I prepared to enact the final step of this delicate operation, I called upon the aid of Breta, and the others. As they gathered around, their divine presence served as a shield against any unforeseen consequences that might arise. Although I didn't think the wind element would end up doing anything bad, one could never be too careful.

With a surge of energy, I directed the wind element outside of my soul space to the mortal realm. The element, sensing the call of its native domain, surged forward, propelled by the forces of nature. It emerged from the confines of my soul space, returning to the realm from whence it came.

As the wind element reentered the mortal realm, a gentle calm settled over the grassland, the storm clouds dissipating and the destructive winds subsiding, and I could feel the land sighing with relief, as if grateful for the restoration of tranquility and balance.

With a satisfied grin, I spoke, "Well, that wasn't so bad, was it?"

Breta, her expression calm and composed, nodded in agreement. She slowly lowered her divine shield, a gesture echoed by the others who followed suit.

Her voice calm, Breta inquired, "Is it over?"

I took a moment to assess the surroundings, the mana now flowing harmoniously once more. With a hint of regret in my voice, I replied, "Yes, I believe so. The flow of mana has been restored back to its normal state." Pausing, my gaze shifted to the scarred land that lay before us. "It's a shame to see the destruction that occurred here, though."

Breta's eyes softened as she surveyed the damaged landscape. "Indeed, the price paid by the land is a heavy one. But with time, nature will heal and restore this place to its former beauty."

Serenia added her voice to the conversation, her tone filled with compassion. "The resilience of nature is remarkable. Given time and care, this land will thrive once more."

I nodded in agreement, "Well then, let's move on to the next place, we still have a lot of work to do."

Not far from where Aether and his companions completed their task, a group of Auris found themselves frozen in awe and disbelief. Their eyes widened as they took in the astonishing sight that unfolded before them. Being inherently attuned to the ebb and flow of mana, they were immediately drawn to the sudden disturbance caused by the massive wind element.

Word quickly spread, and a group of curious Auris was swiftly dispatched to investigate the source of this extraordinary phenomenon. Little did they know that they were about to witness something beyond their wildest imaginations.

As they approached the scene, their senses tingled with anticipation and trepidation. The air crackled with residual energy, and the grassland bore the scars of the recent tumultuous battle between the elements. However, what truly left them speechless were the divine figures that stood before them.

Four beings emanating a radiant aura, unmistakably divine in nature, stood like pillars of strength. Their presence alone exuded power and authority, enveloping the area in a sense of awe. Bright divine shields surrounded them, acting as guardians of the land they protected.

But it was the sight of the colossal creature at the heart of the storm that truly left the Auris in disbelief. Towering and majestic, it possessed an otherworldly presence. Its golden eyes, sharp and piercing, seemed to hold the very essence of the world itself. The aura it emitted was so potent that the mere act of looking directly at it was a challenge.

As the Auris stood there, a torrent of questions flooded their minds. What kind of creature could possess such immense power? Was it a deity, an ancient guardian, or something else entirely? Their knowledge and experiences offered no explanation for this extraordinary sight.

Whispers filled the air as the Auris exchanged bewildered glances, their voices hushed with a mixture of reverence and curiosity. Some speculated about the origins and purpose of these divine beings, while others wondered if this encounter was a blessing or a harbinger of unforeseen consequences.

In the face of this profound encounter, the Auris felt a mixture of awe and trepidation. They couldn't help but acknowledge that their world held mysteries far greater than they had ever imagined. With this newfound realization, they returned to their homes, carrying tales of the divine beings and the mighty creature they had witnessed, eager to share their extraordinary encounter with their kin and preserve the memory of this profound event for generations to come.

"Shouldn't you do something with those mortals?" I asked in curiosity as we flew away.

Serenia shook her head lightly, "I have already restored your disguise, esteemed Aether. As for what happened, it seems like my abilities are still lacking, but it matters not."

"Hmm, if you say so."
