The Sun - Lord of Mysteries (fanfiction)

Chapter 125: Night Emperor

Palace of Eternity, Backlund.

The most powerful beings on the planet had gathered in the throne room with the Lord of Order, Trunsoest.

The crimson moonlight filtered through the stained window behind the royal throne, illuminating Eternal Blazing Sun and Trunsoest, who were walking towards the throne together, followed by other gods.

There were seven other thrones adjacent, three on the right and four on the left of the royal throne.

"Are you ready?" Eternal Blazing Sun inquired, his gaze fixed on Trunsoest.

"Yes." Trunsoest nodded and exhaled deeply. "Even though this came out of nowhere. But, I am already prepared for the apotheosis ritual due to your previous instructions."

"I should be able to handle it. No, I can handle it."

Eternal Blazing Sun smiled. "That's the spirit. Now, tell me about your divine order."

Trunsoest responded, his emotional eyes peered at the bronze throne.

"My divine order is based on a principle that I devised."

"It is the principle of Causality, 'Causality is the pull between meanings; it is connection that forms the relationship of all things.'"

Eternal Blazing Sun raised his brows in surprise, but before he could speak, God of Knowledge interrupted, walking forward with them.

"Causality, you say?" His starry eyes twinkled as he spoke. "That's a unique concept for a divine order."

"Yes." Trunsoest nodded. "It is not only rare, but also extremely difficult to manifest."

With a smile, Eternal Blazing Sun crossed his hands and listened in.

"So, Trunsoest, what inspired you to create this principle?" God of Knowledge inquired, rubbing the Ominiscent eye on his book.

"It was the golden order." Trunsoest answered, looking at the Eternal Blazing Sun. "The sun god gave me access to it, and it was what truly inspired my principle."

"Herabergan." Eternal Blazing Sun intervened before God of Knowledge could ask Trunsoest any further questions. "Enough with the questions. He is already under a lot of pressure, and you aren't helping."

Then he looked at the Trunsoest. "Now ascend to the throne. The ceremony will begin soon."

Trunsoest nodded and walked towards the royal throne, while Eternal Blazing Sun and God of Knowledge stood back and observed him.

"You are still so insidious, Aucuses.." God of Knowledge chuckled, rubbing his beard with his hand. "You're manipulating him so subtly to get what you want."

"And, as usual, you continue to exaggerate the facts. It's a bad habit, Herabergan, and it might come back to bite you one day." Eternal Blazing Sun smirked, "About Trunsoest, I just pointed him out in the path and he was the one who made the journey himself."

As tension filled the air, the God of Knowledge and the Eternal Blazing Sun exchanged glares, invisible sparks erupting from their confrontation of divine auras.

The Evernight Goddess stepped between them, her hands crossed. "This isn't the time. Trunsoest's apotheosis is about to begin. So, please take your seats."

In silence, the God of Knowledge turned around and walked towards one of the thrones near the royal throne. At the sight of this, the Eternal Blazing Sun chuckled and took his place on the throne as well.

"Let's begin." Evernight Goddess declared, before nodding to the Earth Mother.

Earth Mother arose from her throne, drawing everyone's attention. She approached Trunsoest, who had already ascended to his royal throne.

"I am ready." Trunsoest spoke up, his golden eyes twinkling like stars. "I am ready."

"There is no pressure, Trunsoest." Earth Mother spoke in a soothing voice. "You will ascend with the help of all of us."

Trunsoest smiled as he nodded. Earth Mother went on, reassuringly placing her hand on his shoulder.

"Aucuses is also here to help you, even if you have a problem with the order."

"Thank you." Trunsoest bowed his head. "Thank you for.."

Earth Mother smiled. "Now, save all of this for later. There will be plenty of time."

"All right, let's get started." Trunsoest finally said, taking a deep breath.

Earth Mother raised her hands, and her palm began to glow with golden light, splattering on Trunsoest.

The light then began to congregate above her palm, transforming it into a golden crown encrusted with diamonds.

She took the floating crown in her hands and looked at him.

"What shall your honorific title be, Trunsoest?"

Trunsoest answered, his firm eyes fixed on the crown. "The Night Emperor."

Eternal Blazing Sun snapped his fingers as he gazed up at the night sky.

"It is time for the world to wake up and witness the ascension of the Night Emperor."

At 3 a.m., the warm amber sun awoke and emerged from the distant horizon, heralding the arrival of the day.

The hue of a giant fluorescent orb ignited the dim sky and splashed the glittering, silver clouds in a multitude shades of gold as it hung low from the high heavens like a golden medallion.

The sun's iridescent rays cast huge columns of light across the world, brilliantly illuminating every nook and cranny.

The world awoke, as solemn and high music resounded from the palace of eternity, creating a grand symphony of melodies and signalling the new era,

In the Palace of Eternity, Lilith stood under the light of the sun, holding the crown. She turned and faced the world ahead of her.

"I, Earth Mother, invoking divine authority, recognise Trunsoest, Lord of Order, as Emperor of the Trunsoest Empire. He will be the judge, restoring order to the fallen Northern Continent."

"And, he shall forevermore be known as the "Night Emperor"."

The solemn voice of the Goddess of Life rang across the earth, striking into the hearts and souls of all people, regardless of origin or differences.

The golden crown was then placed on Trunsoest's head by Earth Mother, crowning him as Emperor.

The sun's rays glistened across the sky, revealing to the world the image of Trunsoest, the Night Emperor.

"God save the King."

"God save the King."

That image drew the awakened citizens to a frenzied chant in recognition of their sovereign.

Then, it faded away, as the rays of sun shimmered again.

Eternal Blazing Sun stood up from his throne and walked towards the Trunsoest.

He said, standing with Earth Mother. "Now, Trunsoest, manifest your divine order and weave it into the fabric of reality." He raised his hand, causing the sun light to converge in his hand, which continued to morph into the shape of a tree, ring, book, pendent, and so on.

"You can select a form for your order based on your preferences. I chose a tree for my golden order."

Trunsoest stared intently at the ever-changing shapes in the hands of Eternal Blazing Sun.

Then he nodded, as if he had finally made a decision.

"Then begin." Eternal Blazing Sun smiled, encouraging him. "You are now the Emperor of a empire. A emprie that is currently plagued by chaos. You will be the judge, establishing order and binding the beast of chaos, and ascending to become the Justicair."

Trunsoest began by closing his eyes and raising his hands, opening them wide and above. Eternal Blazing Sun and Earth Mother stood before him, while the gazes of the other gods were also on him.

A golden light radiated from both of his palms, coursing from his very core. They began to ascend and converge directly above his head, slowly forming four golden circles intersecting with each other, while another golden light fell in the middle of the circles, connecting them all together.

A vast divine aura filled the hall as the entire reality around the Trunsoest began to glitch and shimmer at an astonishing rate.

Suddenly, the God of Knowledge rose from his throne, gazing at the astral world.

"Solomon's resurrection has also begun."

_____________

The Astral World.

Crack!

In the infinite space between Venus and Earth, an invisible tremor erupted as a massive black mausoleum descended on the very fabric of reality, cracking it.

Boom!

The black mausoleum shook heavily before collapsing on itself, bringing the surrounding reality with it, reducing it all into a black vortex of chaos.

The vortex flared up like a black, ravenous tsunami, decimated the very reality in its path.

It expanded and raged towards the centre of the solar system.

Its target is none other than the Eternal Sun!
