Chapter 12 - Wheels Set In Motion

Unnamed Region

Unnamed Galaxy

☆☆☆☆☆

A middle-aged man could be seen floating. in an unidentified region of space. Eyes closed.

The man seemed like a statue if not for the rhythmic pulsing of Golden coloured energy that he emitted.

Another reason he looked like a statue was because he possessed a flawless looking face and a physique that seemed to have been sculpted to perfection.

He had Pristine white hair and he wore a 3 piece suit of the same colour and a tie of burgundy red that matched his cape.

A silver brooch shaped like a Crown was pinned to his chest where his heart would be. A huge Star was engraved on the back of his long flowing cape and on his feet he wore black dress shoes that had dark red bottoms.

Floating a meter above his head was a Golden Crown.

The Gold Light pulsing around him suddenly stopped as his eyes snapped open. Then he spoke.

" Haaa.... That brat. He said with a sigh as the corner of his lips twitched.

Well one problem solved...time to see what this energy is all about ". He added glancing at the storm of Mystic energy he could see up ahead.

" Well not like I have anything I rather be doing right now ". He added with a shrug as he formed a golden throne behind him and sat on it.

Left Fist balled against the side of his face and his right hand tapping against the armrest periodically. As he decided to watch what would be born from the storm.

Not knowing this storm is just the start and the wheels have already been set in motion.

Eden's Manor

In the dead of the night a familiar figure could be seen on the terrace. Leaning on the railings. Eden was deep in thought as he gazed at the starry skies he had come to love

Yes even before reincarnating he had always had a weird obsession with Stars, Space and the strange nothingness in between.

Whilst he was lost the ever faithful maid Lucia joined him on the terrace and watched him silently for a while. Before she finally spoke.

" Everything has been prepared for your departure young Lord ". She said calmly as she handed him a spatial ring filled with freshly cooked meals amongst other things that would last him for quite a while.

" Thank you Lucia ". He replied as he collected the ring and placed it on his finger.

He then raised his hands as purple spatial mana converged above his hand forming a four pointed star.

Lucia few meters away from him just stared in awe. Quietly wondering what he was doing.

Eden then let the purple star float away from his hands as it expanded. Forming a star shaped portal. Then he spoke again.

" I guess it's goodbye....For now ". He muttered casually.

" Yes young Lord....Do take care of yourself ". She replied as a drop of a tear slid down the corner of her beautiful eyes.

" Don't worry Lucia... I'll be back before you know it ". He added as he stepped into the portal.

The portal closed behind him but a star shaped sigil remained etched on the floor.

Silence returned on the terrace as Lucia continued staring at the spot where Eden had vanished.

" Be safe ". Lucia finally muttered as she made her way out of his room.

A room that would be remain unchanged till her young Lord's return.
