Forsaken By The Gods, I Made A Contract With the Demon King

Chapter 141 chosen one

It was when they arrived at the Wellspring.

Eren who saw the beautiful waterfall was mesmerised but what truly caught his attention was the stone platform on which the two disc-shaped tiers of carved rock lay, as if an altar of some kind.

Yet the altar was clearly missing something – the altar stood vacant, leaving an empty space at its center that seemed to yearn to be filled, a void waiting to be made whole once more

Eren felyt as if he knew what was missing, he was attracted to the the platform more so than ever.

He could hear the Master Vihaan talking about something but his attention was wholy attracted towards the stone platform and as if guided by something, Eren started to walk forward.

The first to notice him was Erza. She squinted her eyes looking Eren.

Then attention of everyone including Master Vihaan turned to him.

Buty Oblivious to their gazes Eren walked forward, as if possessed. At the same time the artifact inside him started to radiate.

<You have found the sacred resting place of the Forgotten God>

<The First of the seven Seals on the artifact is breaking due to the remnant energy of the forgotten god>

Power rushed forward from within him, from the artiofact that had settled long inside him as it pushed him towards the Altar.

The people stood shocked at the transpiring things...

E

A tremor ran through Eren's body as an ancient force surged forth from the artifact, pushing him ever nearer to the altar's center. The air thrummed with raw energy, causing the very ground to tremble.

"What's happening?" Zephyr's voice was laced with concern as he took an instinctive step back.

Master Vihaan's eyes went wide, his lined face a mask of shock and wonder. "By the Radiance...could it be?"

Eren felt the power building inside him like a raging firestorm desperate to be unleashed. His steps were inexorable as he ascended the stone tiers until he stood atop the altar's pinnacle.

Suddenly, his body arched back as if pulled

When at last the radiance subsided, a collective gasp escaped their lips. There, hovering just above the altar's surface, was a breathtaking jewel - a cabochon of deepest green flecked with veins of incandescent gold. It pulsed with an inner luminescence, as if imbued with the primal energies of nature itself.

"The sacred idol..." Vihaan's voice was a reverent whisper as he went down to one knee, his face suffused with awe. "After all these centuries..."

Zephyr found his voice first. "But... How? What just happened?"

"The artifact you carry, Eren," the guru replied, looking up at the suspended young man. "It is no mere relic, but an ancient seal housing the divine essence of the Forgotten God - my people's true primordial deity."

Comprehension began to dawn as Eren lifted his head, his eyes locking with Vihaan's.

"When you drew near the Wellspring where the sacred idol belongs, the resonant energies triggered the awakening of the first divine seal within you." The guru smiled, though his eyes shone with unshed tears. "You have restored what was lost to us."

With a tremulous sigh, the emerald jewel descended to alight upon the altar at last, whole and complete once more as if it had never been disturbed. A wave of revitalizing energy rippled outwards, causing the very trees to seem to shiver and straighten their branches.

"I...don't understand," Eren murmured, swaying slightly as the power subsided. "How is this possible? What am I?"

Vihaan rose to his feet, resting his weight on his gnarled staff as he beheld the young man with new eyes.

"You, Eren of the Outside Lands, are the Champions of our Primeval Faith reborn - sent to us in our time of need as a vessel for our god's return. The Forgotten has awoken at last."

The old guru's words washed over them all with the weight of ancient and immutable truth. Silence fell over the grove as they struggled to grasp the profound significance of what had just transpired.

But there was no time for respite or contemplation. Vihaan's expression grew solemn once more as he looked to each of them in turn.

"Though the sacred idol is restored for now, I fear darker days lie ahead. The traitor Tharaq will not rest until he has claimed the divine essence for himself and twisted it towards his mad ambition. We must act swiftly to confront him - and put a permanent end to his betrayal."

He turned to face Eren directly, his gaze resolute.

"The awakening of the Forgotten God's power means you have been chosen as our Champion, blessed to wield the divine essence against those who would defile it. Will you

Suddenly, his body arched back as if pulled taut by invisible strings. From the core of his being, a blinding emerald light erupted, searing across the clearing. The others shielded their eyes against the brilliance as it washed over them in pulsing waves.
