Chapter 11 - 11: Goal
Chapter 11: Chapter 11: Goal
Aurora was completely drained out of energy and she was just 2 meters away from the portal but she wasn't even in the condition to look at that, her whole body was bloody every bones fractured and scratches all over her body, no doubt she'll die at this rate.
It is as at this moment Aurora felt something awakening in her, seeing that this was last hope she concentrated on that feeling, soon some lightening began to surround her and she hurriedly sat up and looked at the portal, her eyes were full of determination, she felt like she could do anything in this state.
She ignored all the pain and tried to jump into the portal and barely succeeded. The moment she entered the portal, she began to feel dizzy and her eyes dimmed, and she lost consciousness. All the lightning surrounding her went into her body as if it were never there.
The place where she arrived was a endless desert with high mountains. Asty was sitting and watching Aurora in relief. If Aurora even failed this test Asty would have to raise the training standard later but it looks like Aurora will be okay with normal training.
Asty then jumped from the rock and went towards the bloodied Aurora, after reaching her she stuffed a high tier healing pill in her mouth. Aurora's body began to heal at visible rate, all her bones were healed and there were no marks of scratches anywhere, just the blood was all over her body, it was quite ironic as she just came out of water.
Actually it was Asty who balanced the pressure otherwise with Aurora's body she would have been crushed to death in no time.
After some time, Aurora woke up and looked left and right in confusion and only after seeing Asty did she remember everything and began to feel dread, she really thought she was going to die but somehow she made it.
"Oh you're awake huh, how are you feeling?" Asty came in front of her and asked.
"I don't know."Aurora said as she looked down.
"Well this test was for two things, first to check to your determination and second was to temper your body so it could actually handle your bloodline when it awakens." Asty said and went back to the rock she was sitting on.
Aurora also followed her and sat on a nearby rock, she looked she was contemplating something.
"You don't need to think much about it, since you possess this Bloodline, you have to go through something like that very often." Asty said and then asked in a serious tone "These things aside, tell me Aurora, what is your goal?"
Aurora came out of her thoughts and heard Asty and she became confused. She began to think about her goal but nothing came to her mind, as although she wants to become stronger but that can't be counted as her goal and neither she had her family nor she wants any revenge.
"I have none." Aurora responded honestly as she truly can't think of anything aside from trying to live happily.
"It's good that you're honest and if you had said something like saving the world or bringing peace or something like that I would have kicked you out right now." Asty nodded in satisfaction at her answer, she truly hated those self righteous bastards.
Aurora wiped the sweat on her forehead and heaved sigh of relief, sure enough honesty is the best policy, although she didn't have a goal but she wanted to become stronger so having Asty's guidance was very necessary.
"But master Asty what is your goal?" Aurora said as she thought maybe she will find her goal after listening to Asty.
"You don't have to say master or anything, just call me Asty and as for my goal I've already achieved it so it doesn't really matter but if you want to know it's very simple actually I just wanted to be side by side with Aadi wherever he goes and whatever he achieves, you see Aadi's talent was way above mine and if I wanted to be with him I had to set a goal like this." Asty said with a smile a she remembered her days where she went through many hardships by just thinking of being with Aadi.
Aurora eyes widened, she didn't expect such answer, she achieved such high level just for being with Aadi but then she asked "If you're saying master's talent was above yours then what was his goal and has he completed it?"
"His goal too was pretty simple actually, he just wanted to stand at a level where even if every existence went against him, he'll be the winner, even if millions came he could defeat them, he wanted that type of power and yes he has already reached that level that's why he came to this place to pass his time and as always i tagged along with him." Asty said.
"Well enough about that, do you have anything you want to do?" Asty again asked as thought that after listening to their goal maybe Aurora would have an goal of her.
Aurora's eyes became firmed and she said "I don't have anything but my master has taken me in at my lowest, I want to be the strongest so I don't sully my master's name."
Asty smiled and said "Good although it's a stupid goal but nevertheless it is something that can drive you to move forward, now let me tell you some things about your destiny so you be prepared and then I'll help you awaken your bloodline and then I'll heal you Profound veins so you can cultivate again.
"My destiny?" Aurora asked in confusion.
"Well I'll first tell you about your bloodline and then other things" Asty said as she began to tell Aurora about the Ruler's Bloodline.
If anyone who knows Asty saw the current scene, their jaws would definitely drop to the ground in shock as Asty was never one to talk long with anyone except Aadi, for her everything and everyone was troublesome and she couldn't be bothered to deal with them.
