The Sun - Lord of Mysteries (fanfiction)

Chapter 36: Blaise Larson

"Milord." Blaise said, immediately after arriving.

Under the crimson moonlight, Aucuces looked at his Angel of Miracles in silence.

Blaise Larson, the angel of miracles, was famous throughout the world. The bards themselves travel across nations to sing his praises.

There were various legends about him throughout the world; some tell of his tales of slaying mighty dragons and to saving an entire country from the demoness for only five coins from a little girl.

He was also heralded as the messenger of the sun god himself, and many consider his will to be the command of the sun god himself at times.

In the third epoch, the low-sequence pathway formulas were widely circulated. It wasn't difficult to become extraordinary during that times.

Blaise was a vagrant and part-time thief. Throughout his childhood, he learned many tricks and methods for becoming successful in his job and surviving in that era without losing his life in the hands of extraordinary people. Regardless of his profession, he would go out of his way to help others in need if asked, for a price, of course.

Because of the connections he made in his teenager years, he was given the opportunity to become a beyonder. He had several options, ranging from the well-known sun and tyrant pathways to the revered paragon pathway.

Yet, he chose the fool path, and when others found out, they mocked him for being a literal fool.

But Blaise was unconcerned about what others thought of him. To be honest, he preferred the error path because it was more suitable for him, but the potion formula for that is even more difficult to find. He didn't know if he'd get another chance, so he chose the fool path without hesitation, as he knew that it was adjacent to error.

During the third epoch, the most infamous paths were the error, fool, and door. The rumours about it became so widespread, that it was given a special name to represent it, "The Cursed Pathways." They called it that because most who walked these paths would face the damned fate before becoming demigods.

However, Blaise still chose this path, and his life was forever changed as a result. He didn't abandon his thieving career even after becoming a well-known diviner among mortals. When he advanced further, he even started his own circus.

His life was not without adversity; like any beyonder of the mysteries pathways, he was on the verge of losing control on numerous occasions. However, he pushed through it all and survived by sheer willpower at times.

His desire for power, however, did not dim when he couldn't obtain the formulas for promotion, because he had witnessed and lived in the dark, cruel world long enough to understand the importance of power.

That's when he decided to try his luck and join the regiment of the King of Angels, who were actually recruiting for some competent beyonders. Blaise knew that if he wanted to advance on his path, this was the best way, as the King of angels serve the creator himself.

It would be easy for him to find about the potion formula there, even though he disliked being restricted because of how he lived. But, he knew he had to make some sacrifices. He didn't think they'd accept someone like him after learning that recruitment was for the legion under the white angel.

He didn't have anything in common with those who were regarded as the most noble and respected at the time. But, much to his surprise, he was accepted by them after they learned about his path and past, which wasn't difficult for them to discover.

Blaise expected to be a misfit, and this time his expectations were not disappointed. He was alone during his endeavours and mission, which he performed in order to increase his contribution and directly redeem for the potion.

That's when he met another misfit like himself on a group mission he reluctantly accepted.

Diana Knight was her name. She referred to herself as a researcher of truth and even boasted to him about knowing the white angel and the angel of destiny themselves. Even though he didn't believe at first, he noticed her noble temperament and assumed she'd be a burden who only knows how to talk.

When he saw the same noble woman tearing apart a mountain-sized giant in a single move, he realised how wrong he was.

They hit it off right away and became friends, or so she labelled our relationship. Because of his past experiences, he never trusted anyone and wore various masks to not reveal his true self. Nonetheless, he felt this will be different in some way.

However, this was also the time when he was confronted with a challenging choice for the second time in his life, the promotion to demigod. He was already considered a miracle on the legion of lightthey called the legion of white angel just thatfor being able to advance to this stage without the assistance of anyone else.

Blaise was aware of the extreme danger, but he also didn't understand why this path of mystery was so different from others. But he didn't give up and decided to apply for assistance during this promotion and ritual. He put on a spectacular show, slaying a demigod dragon in front of a large crowd of legionnaires. However, he didn't expect someone to appear right before him, before he could drink his potion.

A man with white angel wings and a golden burning eye stood before him.

At the time, Blaise had a subconscious feeling that the arrival of the angel would completely change his life....

Aucuces was the one who arrived at the time, and he was intrigued by someone who had made it this far down the fool's path. At the time, he obtained this information from Diana.

He was honestly surprised when the once-thief successfully promoted himself to demigod of the fool pathway in his presence.

As, the will of celestial worthy was so strong at the time that the ancient sun god himself did not want the pathways to spread.

However, this thief far exceeded many people's expectations, which greatly impressed him. He ordered Blaise to be assigned to a special unit directly under him. Blaise advanced with his assistance, and he became his messenger after proving himself worthy. Only after the will of celestial worthy weakened did he finally advance to the angel at the start of the fourth epoch.

The angel of miracles was thus born, and while many referred to him as the kindest, he was far from it. He walked around the world with many different faces, leaving various legends behind. Even though he had never trusted others before, but the passing of centuries changed him. He finally found his own place with the people he cared about, a place he could call home at the end of the day.....

Blaise then looked at Diana and Lucas in the banquet and said, "They are indeed perfect for each other." His voice was rather a little low.

"Hm?" Aucuces raised his brow. "Your rivalry with Lucas should not be over...?"

"No, milord." Blaise shook his head vigorously, attempting to deny it. "It was just, I didn't expect anything like this between them..." He had seen a lot in his life and knew how rare this was, especially when it happened to his friends, which come as quite a shocker to him. "But I am genuinely happy for them," he said, smiling as he looked at them.

Aucuces hummed and inquired. "How was the Solomon Empire?"

"Strange." Blaise paused, his face solemn. "Freaky. Thrilling. Dangerous"

Aucuces was unsurprised and asked indifferently, "Who was the first to give in?"

"Trunsoest, milord." Blaise felt strange when he heard the tone of the lord, but he still continued.

Aucuces sighed suddenly as he turned to face him and said. "Are you still awaiting me to call you out? I expected you to be as daring as before."

Blaise's eyes widened as tampered and erased memories surfaced simultaneously, but before he could process them. Everything went dark for him.

Aucuces looked at Blaise indifferently, who had completely changed his demeanour at the time.

Blaise took out a monocle and placed it over his right eye, spoke in a voice that didn't belong to him.

"It's been a while, hasn't it? Aucuces."
