Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1440

Back then, Masquerade's name change led him to make the connection that Archibald was a Grimblade. The deduction was simple enough. If names could be changed, then Archibald's last name had obviously been changed as well, obscuring the fact that he was a Grimblade all along from Sylas.

But he had missed the forest for the trees.

How was name changing possible in the first place?

This wasn't Sylas concluding that the Grimblades and everyone else were traitors. Maybe some, but that wasn't the point.

The point was that there was some method of changing something so fundamental on Earth, and the reason it had been left behind was equally important.

All Sylas knew now was that he had to make it back to Earth, and he had to make it back before the two and a half months left to its completed evolution were through.

But he had already triggered this Empyrean Dungeon, and he had no way out until it was finished.

A dangerous aura suddenly rippled out in all directions.

'I don't have time for this.'

Whether it was Neyara, Dusk, or any one of the others, they felt a chill run up their spines, all of them instinctively taking a step back.

Kraziel and Veyric felt their smiles freeze.

They had already felt like Sylas' Will was beyond their own, and quite frankly, Kraziel was being more cheeky than anything else. He didn't actually expect Sylas to know anything about such a large matter.

But right now, all they could feel was danger.

"How do I speed this up?" Sylas asked the little girl.

"Defeat all potential challengers. There are decent odds the system might help you out if it's feeling generous. But the odds of that are low."

Sylas' jaw set, his anxiety fading from his eyes, replaced by a cold and calculating look.

If he was going to do this, then he would need all of his mental faculties. There was no time to waste.

His eyes turned to the two people behind Neyara.

"I'm challenging you. Give up like your leader did, or you can face the consequences. It's up to you. The result will be the exact same regardless."

The two men beside Neyara suddenly frowned. What was going on here?

"Who do you—?!"

The notification popped up for one of the Lunar.

Neyara didn't expect this sudden change either, and her heart couldn't help but leap out of her chest. What was going on? Why had Sylas made this decision? To punish her for challenging him earlier?

"Wait! Envidon, you're not a match for him, just give—!"

Envidon accepted the challenge. Furious, he unsheathed a twin pair of golden axes, surging toward Sylas.

BANG.

Sylas didn't even move. An invisible force descended from above with such force that Envidon was implanted into the ground.

"Give up or I kill you. You have three seconds. Three… Two…"

The Lunar seemed to only have cosmetic differences, but each one of them was a dual wielder for a reason. That wasn't because they were ambidextrous like he was, or because they just had abnormal flexibility; it was instead because of an odd mirroring ability they had. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
