Chapter 307 Chains Of Glory
The monster scuttled toward him with all four limbs coming through the snow in utter disorder. Settled snows were disturbed even further as Andre seared across the landscape in a swift clean movement, drawing a parabola with the sword as he aimed for the neck.
But it was the wrong place to aim for.
The sound bounced back, met by a metallic resistance on its neck.
Although their skin may make it look like they were easy to kill. Frost Gorillas had an impregnable defense that gave them the privilege to go berserk without having to worry about their necks.
Curtis's eyes were widened. n(.o-)v-/E-)l./b(/1.(n
'I didn't know they had strong necks'
There was no way he would ever know because he didn't aim for the neck.
Andre turned coincidence into opportunity. He twisted his torso to redirect his sword pattern as his whole body was pushed back by the stiff neck of the gorilla. He traced a simple arc down its arm.
But the gorilla was way ahead of him. It swung its bare fist in the same direction. Hitting the sword with an even greater power. The blade of his sword shattered right before his eyes.
Before he could recover from the shock the gorilla's second hand had crunched into his flank, sending him across the landscape to his left. He tumbled and rolled as he landed on the ice far off.
Curtis darted across seeing this, his hands adorned by a soaring cloak of blue flames.
A resounding thud shimmered through his bones as his fist met the gorilla's metaled-defense skin. The pain was stinging through his bone even as he pulled back his hand smearing the gorilla with flames all over its skin.
The blue fire spread quickly like an arson and the gorilla was soon dancing in the snow. But it only lasted for a while.
Curtis was still mm holding his hand in pain and Andre coming back, recovering from the crushing throw when they saw what they saw. The monster's skin was changing.
It had a white-scaled skin that now became a blue-scaled skin, the only difference was that instead of fish-scaled, the scales were somewhat like intricate patterns of flames.
The monster born anew stood gallant before them.
"What in the world is this?"
Both of them questioned but with no answer to fill their mouths, they were left agape.

"So this is the center..."
"And the highest point."
Maria added in his stead.
Raith looked towards the tree's branch in the clouds. He could now see it a bit clearer now that he was standing on top of the highest mountain in the ice continent.
The tree had blue leaves and white branches. Raith wondered if they were like that because of the weather or if that was just how she was. But looking at the green and white linen and green pieces of jewelry she was adorned by. He decided to opt for the former. It had to be the weather.
He looked up into the sky. This was where another sun would sit. It will rise from the center and at night its bright light will transition into a soft blue light that is supposed to provide the people with a subtle heat.
That was how Raith had readjusted the description of the skill after much thought was put into it. The moon still appeared at night, with the sun also acting as another moon, in other words, this place was going to have two moons at night.
He thought about it and couldn't wait to see how it would turn out.
Raith stretched his hand into the sky and began:
"Create sunlight"
As if in response, a faint glimmer emerged at his fingertips. It grew, a small spark of warmth and light. Raith's eyes never left it as he willed it to expand.
The sparks left his hands and swirled in the air. Swirling around each other, they create to form a large ball that soon began to rotate around each other at a tremendous rate.
The speed of rotation increased and a pillar of light suddenly extended from the rotation, one end hitting the ground, the other end piercing the sky.
This pillar was large, not only could it be seen from the airport. But even countries that were closer to the continent could see it. However, it was brief, so no one made a big deal about it. There's always that nose poker though.
The pillar of light from below began to go up, and after a couple of seconds, the pillar changed shape into a large found orb that hid within the clouds soaring higher into the sky.
With every passing second, the glow intensified.
It became a radiant ball of golden fire, pushing aside the cold of the land.
Raith could feel warm air surround him. Now it was only a couple of hours before the entire landscape changed under the influence of the new sunlight.
He looked up at the golden or shimmering in the clouds. Its size was comparable to the sun, it stood as far as the real sun usually would.
Of course, there was no way for Raith to know he had committed a change in the universal laws that guided the universe, that too on a sacred plane.
In the vast darkness of space, Earth which was supposed to have only one natural satellite; the moon, now had two. With the other one twice the size of the planet.
Luckily, no matter how much Raith tried recreating the sun. He couldn't create the same burning power. If not, he would have destroyed the other planets, Earth involved, and even this universal plane they existed in.
Raith looked around, a golden glow filled the entire land. It was like the setting of the sun, only that the time right now was 3.05 PM. When the sun is usually burning at its highest.
The radiant golden glow that filled the sky and reflected on the snowlands was beyond glamorous, it was enchanting. Raith was sure the people of Therut would be able to make a good country out of this vast plane.
"Now, for the next part."
He got ready.
Raith's preparation was cut short when he saw a sudden red explosion burst from a particular area.
