Chapter 2406 An Oath I

"This is truly interesting. I do not see you as an existence who wouldn't grasp how inescapable an Oath of Extremity is...so for you to offer up such a proposal is truly preposterous. But...as you and I both know, I have nothing to forfeit on either of the presented paths!"
Silas' eyes were sharp as he turned jovial at this development and continued.
"Very well. The Lernaean Lineage and domains you shall have. The glimpse of the Armament of Extremity in a few days...I can do as well. For procuring the Extremity Panaceas for the Shadowlings of the Cult of Endless Shadows, 81 Golden Extremity Panaceas will be enough, no need for Obsidian or the unobtainable Crimson Extremity Panaceas- and this number is about the goal that was given for the Shadowlings initially. If you best other Haven Rank Shadowlings similar to Rosalind who are already within the Abyssal Sanctimonious Lands of this Haven, you can even command them! If you agree to this, we can make the Oath right away."
"..."
The exchange of words was coming to an end as the Emperor atop the sandy gold throne nodded with a smile.
"Sounds easy enough. Let's get this show on the road."
WAA!
The bubbling expanse of Shadows surrounding them began to fade as Silas looked up towards the skies.
There was truly nothing there in this vast expanse where if one looked far enough, they would begin to see swirling spatial vortices and sources of chaos dancing around madly.
In the distance, Roan had a cloudy expression as he watched the unveiled figures of Silas and Osmont, his eyes locking with Osmont at this moment as Roan could swear that within these eyes...he saw mockery and a shred of pity!𝓷𝓞𝔳𝞮𝐿𝑢𝕊𝚋.𝑐𝑂𝓶
He felt like he was being looked down on a great deal as before he could even include himself, the waves of shadows sank into Silas's feet as his voice boomed out while he stared at the endless space above.
"O Esteemed Adjudicator of Dissolution, I wish to commence an Oath of Extremity."
BOOM!
The space above turned heavy and tumultuous as it seemed like the end of the world.
Space cracked and fissured as while this phenomenon unfolded, Roan stared forward incredulously as he asked himself...for what reason would Silas be seeking to make an Oath of Extremity?! He didn't indeed listen to whatever proposal that the Unruly Descendant had spoken of before they became veiled, right?
In his confusion, he felt the horrific descending pressure that felt suffocating to even his soul as he also came to stare at the Endless skies.
There, and covering immense distances...a dazzling veiled face manifested as two eyes that were akin to two Major Planes of Existence rotated madly behind a stellar dark veil, the fair skin on this undoubtedly beautiful face distinctly hidden behind this veil as others could only imagine how it looked!
A deep and ancient voice rang out from this veiled face as it caused tremors in the souls of the two beings below...the visage of Roan looking up but not hearing anything as he wasn't one of the involved parties!
"An Oath of Extremity will cost you one Golden Haven Albatross."
...!
Albatross.
It was a word that more closely translated to burden or responsibility!
It was the price of making an Oath of Extremity no matter the being acting as the mediator- with many powerful Apex Aeonic Lifeforms using this method to form alliances and binding agreements that they would be forced to stick to even if they reached Extremity.
A lesser version of the Oath of Extremity was the Oath of Shadows that one of the Extremity Shadows could mediate within the Cult of Endless Shadows.
Silas gave a nod of affirmation to the skies as he didn't forfeit in accepting a Golden Haven Albatross now, since he would forcibly receive one within the next 1,000 years to fulfill another Albatross!
This was something only pertained to powerful Apex Aeonic Lifeforms that had gained access to Dynamis of Extremity, Silas knowing what an Albatross indeed meant as in the skies, a spinning golden coin materialized from the veiled head and spun down like a burning sun that Silas reached out to grab.
BZZT!
The coin released a shocking air of ancientness and power as opposite to Silas, Noah watched the unfolding situation with great detail as he didn't wish to miss anything!
After Silas approved the Golden Haven Albatross, it burned and seared itself into his soul as once this was
completed, his shadowy eyes gazed up again as he continued.
"I'm sure we do not need to repeat ourselves before the Esteemed Extremity Adjudicator, but out of our own free Wills, the two of us have come to an agreement that needs to be bound by the Oath of Extremity."
Silas gazed between himself and Noah who remained seated on his golden throne even with the overbearing pressure of Extremity cascading down, his eyes also gazing up in acknowledgment as he heard the monotone yet feminine ancient voice in the skies emanate outwards.
"You all wasted a sliver of my attention monitoring this region with your mixing of Lifeforms so everything fell under my gaze."
WAA!
A frightening set of words came out as even in the shadowy veil that Silas had wrapped Noah and himself in, everything they discussed was heard and known under the grandeur of the Extremity Adjudicator of Dissolution as it was enough of an idea to terrify others of the power of such beings!
Yet Silas only nodded as if it was a matter of fact as the voice continued, but this time its glorious will became centered onto Noah's figure on the throne.
"You have 10 years to accomplish everything you promised, or you are bound to undergo the Oath of Shadows and enter the folds of the Cult of Endless Shadows while giving back everything you're about to take, do you accept?"
...!
The voice was cold and callous as it didn't offer any opinion or advice, only acting as a mediator at this moment!
Noah will vibrantly rose up as he gazed to the skies and spoke freely while under the grandeur of Extremity.
"I accept."
BZZT!
