The Sun - Lord of Mysteries (fanfiction)

Chapter 76: Desire

Diana, Lucas, and Basie were trekking along the steep slopes, avoiding the scorching magma that was flowing down from the spitting cracks on the volcano.

They arrived at the summit after hours of excruciating travel. As they stepped onto the dark ground, the sky above the summit changed. It was shrouded in thick darkness, with countless resplendent stars shimmering through out it.

They paused on the summit to catch their breath. They didn't seem to notice the stars in the sky, which were now colliding and forming a massive phantom of a brown planet.

Lucas finally couldn't suppress his "Desire" on the summit and dashed towards the crater in the centre.

As he approached the crater, his eyes were filled with unusual excitement, and his lips rose into a twisted smile.

His heart was pounding like a drum with anticipation and excitement. His crazed eyes were wide open as he finally looked down at the crater.

"It's magnificent..." He exclaimed, his heart racing from the sight in front of him. He spread his arms wide, as if he wanted everything here only for him, and him alone.

Diana and Blaise were not far away. They didn't have such unusual excitement as Lucas while walking towards the crater.

When they heard his intoxicated tone, their hearts were filled with curiosity about the crater. They then sped up to the crater, joined him, and gazed down at the mystical scene.

The massive crater was wider, much wider, than the largest canyon on earth. It wasn't filled with smouldering magma, but with something unexpected, something miraculous.

It was Red Roses!

The roses filled the entire crater. They swayed with vibrant life within them, seemingly unaffected by the harsh conditions of this hellish planet.

They were a miracle.

The thought filled the hearts of all three, as their gaze became more obsessive and sacred by the moment.

The roses stretched and slowly opened their petals, sparkling with brilliance. The entire summit was filled with the intoxicating scent of roses.

For them, red roses are no longer just flowers, but something sacred and inviolable. The roses were chaos in perfect order, science and art, yet also magic that unveiled the secrets of the cosmos...

They are the song of the eyes and the aroma for their noses in this hellish planet. They are the brilliance that the world needs, even under this dark sky. They gleam brighter than the sun in the sky...

Diana, Lucas, and Blaise stood in a daze, their eyes gradually losing focus. Their hearts and minds were drunk on the beauty of the flowers.

A green stem with small buds grew out of the ground in front of the three of them. It grew to their height at a moment's notice. The buds in the plant blossomed into red roses.

Their gaze was immediately drawn to the roses, and their hearts were filled with crazed "Desire" for the roses. They want it. They want it all for themselves.

"Pick it up. Take it. It will be yours in perpetuity."

A sweet voice echoed directly in their minds, resounding right into the depths of their souls. It broke and silenced their instincts that had been screaming in danger, while their heart and mind began to sink into an ocean of "Desire" for the mesmerising roses.

They raised their hands, their fingers moving dangerously close to the gleaming petal in brown light.

"That's it, little angel. That's all, little angel."

The sweet voice encouraged them, as the brown light began to extend off the petals to their fingers.

Hum!

Just as they were about to make contact with the brown light, a golden sun emblem appeared on their dress and equipment, which had been blessed by their lord. They were then frozen in place. Their minds and eyes quickly went unconscious, as they fell to the dark ground.

The brown light on the petals extended out to touch them, but it melted and exploded into golden particles of light under the blazing emblem of Eternal Blazing Sun.

The ripples appeared from the emblem, and it began breaking through the constraints in reality around the summit to reach the Eternal Blazing Sun in the Voyager.

"The Sun..."

Due to the obvious failure, the sweet voice became twisted and furious. However, it was far from giving up.

The bright brown planet in the starry sky above the summit shone brightly, illuminating the entire carter of red roses.

The red roses rusted heavily, and something emerged from deep within. It radiated the divine aura of a god!

It was the decaying corpse of an ugly and twisted man entangled in red roses, some of which grew out of the cracks on his body.

This was the corspe of Kvastrir, the Ancient God. He was the god of the chained pathway.

During the second epoch, Kvastrir and Flegrea besieged Sanguine Ancestor Lilith and Giant King Aurmir. At a crucial moment in the battle, Aurmir betrayed Lilith by joining forces with his enemies to kill Sanguine Ancestor.

The ancient goddess died. She did, however, remember to drag her enemies to the grave with her. She killed Flegrea and Kvastrir, causing their bodies to shatter and fall to Earth and Venus, respectively.

The corpse of god floated above the crater, controlled by the brown planet. It raised its hand and pointed its finger at the sun emblems on the bodies of the angels.

A black light shot from its finger, heading towards the sun emblem.

It was a curse!

A curse aimed at intercepting the emblem and keeping Eternal Blazing Sun in the dark about his angels.

The curse also tainted the red roses, turning them into man-eating flowers. Then, it came close to the bodies of the angels of sun.

But, just then, a green light flashed from the blue bag of Diana, as a brown seed shot out with the aura of life, striking the black light.

The seed struck the black light, causing it to take on a life of its own, transforming it into a twisted puppet entangled in black roses and no longer under the control of the brown planet.

Roar!

A roar echoed, shaking the entire volcano, as the brown planet shimmered brightly, refusing to give up.

Hum!

The sun emblem on the bodies of angels shone brightly. They emitted a pure beam of light that ripped through the dark sky.

"Shut up! You bitch!" An enraged voice echoed from a tear in the sky, with the radiance of the sun filling the summit of the volcano.

The sacred light of the sun illuminated the entire summit, crater, and angels. It began to purify all the filth and evil that had descended here. The divine corpse began to melt under the flames of sun, which began to destroy the corpse.

A cluster of wheat sprouted up around the already unconscious sun angels. Flowers, mushrooms, and trees were among them. They intertwined with each other, layer by layer, protecting and cleansing the angels from any influences and corruptions.

In the light, Aucuses appeared. His narrowed gaze was drawn immediately to his angel. His tense expression relaxed when he realised there were no problems with them.

Then he looked up at Jupiter's phantom and the twisted man floating above the crater.

This was all orchestrated by the Divine Whore, Mother Tree of Desire.

He didn't bother to yell at it in a rage, as he didn't want to give it any more time or chance.

He immediately declared with authority, "Order."

"Venus is prohibited from having any connection with the astral world."

Hum!

The entire planet was bathed in a dark golden light that morphed into countless law-like symbols and magical labels.

However, before it could merge with reality and expel the influence of the mother tree of desire, the phantom of the brown planet expanded, ascending and reaching the astral world.

Then, it emitted a formless light filled with the authority of corruption at the law-symbols surrounding Venus.

Lilith descended and intercepted the formless light by tapping her wooden staff against the infinite space of the astral world.

The formless light materialised and "Withered" away from reality.

Rumble!

Meanwhile, a swarm of trees sprouted from the fabric of reality and encircled the phantom of the brown planet, which was already the size of half of Venus.

The cluster of trees grew at an astonishing rate, filling the space around the phantom of the brown planet. The brown branches of the trees began to entangle the planet and insert right into it, in a bit to break the entire phantom apart.

The dark-golden law symbols finally combined with the reality of Venus, as the phantom of the brown planet dimmed and became illusory. But the phantom resisted the "Order," causing cracks to appear in the reality around Venus and shaking the entire planet.

Seeing this, Aucuses appeared above the phantom of Jupiter. His stature towered over Venus herself. He was holding a exaggerated sword bathed in twilight.

Then, he swung the blood-stained sword at the phantom.

Crack! Boom!

The twilight sword shattered reality in its path, rupturing it like shards of broken mirror.

Mother Tree of Desire, sensing the threat, did not hesitate to use the last card in her hand to stop the sword stained with the creator's blood.

A black light shot out from Venus, transforming into a scorched figure of the twisted man. It was still enveloped in the golden flames of sun, which were melting him.

However, the corpse, which was under the control of the mother tree of desire, ignored this and flew for the twilight sword.

An aura of tryanny descended on the astral world, as thick blots of lightning erupted from the earth, heading towards the divine cropse.

Boom! Boom!

The blots pierced the twisted man, submerging him in a rain of thunder. It began tearing the scorched corpse apart.

Meanwhile, an impenetrable ray of darkness and a waning beam of twilight shot out of Earth. Their target was the phantom.

The sword of twilight slashed right into phantom, with no obstruction. The attacks of other gods also fell on the phantom.

The phantom of Jupiter cracked and exploded into brilliant light particles, illuminating the astral world within the barrier.

Soon, an angry and terrifying roar resounded throughout the astral world.

Jupiter appeared in the sky above Earth. It's colour quickly faded and became pure. On it was a huge, distorted brown figure.

The illusory figure vanished as sun flares appeared, submerging it within. Thus, ending the battle.
