According to Lady Tehilaʼs words, the being born from the Koloretsua Stone would free the villagers of their seal and lift Teʼomaʼs seal.
However, another being had bonded with the stone at the moment and hindered their mission to lift the seals.
Initially, Cray had hoped that James would be able to fulfill that task. Seeing that James had failed just now, Cray decided it was time for them to move on to the alternative plan.
By unlocking their secret realm, the Orstellen Realm, the person who could pass the tests within the realm would be offered the chance to learn the Orstellen Art. The wielder of the Orstellen Art would possess the knowledge to remove the Teʼoma villagersʼ seal.
After assessing the situation, Cray decided to reveal Teʼomaʼs location to the outside world and welcome cultivators who might be interested in the Orstellen Art to enter their secret realm.
“In order to get the news widely spread across the ten districts, we need someone fit for the task.” Cray stroked his beard. “We should ask King Marciais to help us with this favor.”
“King Marciais?!”
The villagers murmured amongst themselves excitedly upon the mention of that name.
“Let’s head over to his place now.”
Cray got up and headed for the door.
James was standing outside the house. He wanted to try and eavesdrop on the conversation happening inside the room he had just exited. However, he found that his Zen could not penetrate the powerful formation cast over the room.
Just then, he saw Cray and the villagers leaving the house. None of them paid him much attention as they appeared to be heading toward a spiritual mountain located at the periphery of the village.
James spotted Yarona and caught up with her. He asked curiously, “Where are you guys going?”
Yarona replied softly, “Mr. Cray wants to announce the opening of the Orstellen Realm to the outside world. He’s going to meet King Marciais now.”
‘So, that’s what the seals are for. Why did the person who cast the seals on the people set so many restrictions, though? What is she trying to achieve?’ James pondered.
“Whoʼs King Marciais, then?” James brought up another question.
Yarona replied, “A long long time ago, Teʼoma was actually home to an influential and well-known sect called the Orstellen Sect. After the invasion of the extraterrestrial demons was prevented and Lady Tehila, the saintess of the Orstellen Sect, had helped with the restoration of the Endlos, the Orstellen Sect had gone into anonymity. Eventually, we named this place Teʼoma.”
“King Marciais is a genius cultivator from Teʼoma who has terrifying powers and skills. In the history of Teʼoma, there was only one person whose skills and knowledge could match those of King Marciaisʼ. You might not have met the man before, but you must be quite familiar with his stories by now.”
“Huh? Who’s that?”
James had a puzzled look on his face.
