Chapter 1387 True Capabilities Of Shallot’s Mirror

Chapter 1387 True Capabilities Of Shallot’s Mirror

Nine years ago.
Before embarking on the Lazarus Project, Eren received a confidential report from crown prince Rodrick Renar.
This report delved into the intricate details of House Lancelot's affiliations, key clan members, and its illustrious history that stretched back to the kingdom of Edinburgh's inception. Among the valuable information shared by Rodrick was knowledge about the Lancelot Guild and the City of Lancelot, two entities intricately connected to the house's present prosperity and substantial influence within the kingdom.
At that time, Eren's focus was primarily on House Lancelot's recent strengths and weaknesses, but the discovery of Shallot's Mirror being an Elder Seed Artifact piqued his curiosity about the clan's past heritage. To his surprise, information about Shallot herself was classified by the kingdom because of the fact that she was a Titan Slayer.
Only Rodrick's report contained insights into her life. Even most House Lancelot clan members remained unaware of their ancestor's remarkable exploits.
Sage Shallot Lancelot's remarkable contributions during the Calamity War played a pivotal role in elevating House Lancelot to generational wealth and enduring influence. Her influence on history continued to shape the clan's prosperity even after her passing.
As Eren delved into Rodrick's classified reports related to Shallot, he was captivated by the depth of her history.
One revelation was that Shallot was not a conventional Ranker but an Elementalist, a path different from that of a Ranker chosen by the diverse dwellers of Anfang at that time. Although she was titled a Sage due to her powers rivaling the Rankers of her era, Shallot herself did not attribute much importance to such titles as an Elementalist.
During the turbulent era of the Calamity War, Shallot exhibited exceptional talent as an Elementalist, but she was just one of many prodigious geniuses who emerged during that time. Her true transformation occurred when she obtained a mysterious mirror, a remarkable artifact that could change its shape and be worn as a bracelet with the mirror serving as its central ornament.
As Eren delved deeper into Shallot's journey, he uncovered the pivotal role that this enigmatic mirror played in her life. With every page he read, Eren's fascination grew, as the story of Shallot and her extraordinary artifact unfolded before him.
The discovery of her past and the hidden powers of the Elder Seed Artifact held the potential to change the course of Eren's own journey, as he unraveled the secrets of the past to shape the future.
From the moment Shallot was born, it was evident that she possessed an extraordinary gift of overabundant Spiritual Force. It was so formidable that she initially considered walking the path of a Soulweaver. However, due to the limited establishment of Soulweaving in Anfang, she eventually chose to become an Elementalist, which allowed her to make active use of her overabundant Spiritual Force.
Shallot's potential was quickly recognized when she awakened her Soul Sense at a very young age, making her one of the rare talents in the realm. The chaotic battles that raged during the Calamity War against the otherworldly invaders provided the perfect training ground for Shallot to hone her Spiritual Force even further. Her feats in the battles gained her significant recognition within the Anfang Alliance.
Yet, it was when Shallot chanced upon the Elder Seed Artifact that her true brilliance began to shine. With the artifact in her possession, she became a force to be reckoned with, effortlessly overwhelming her opponents and leaving behind an impressive trail of victories.
Her mastery over elemental powers took on a new level of efficiency and efficacy with the artifact's influence. Her elemental manifestations came to life, becoming extensions of her fierce will as they attacked and decimated her enemies.𝞰𝗈𝒱ℯ𝑳𝗎𝕊𝓫.𝑐𝒪𝔪
These manifestations transcended the conventional elemental powers of Elementalists, harnessing the power of intent-based magic. Swiftly conjured, they held the explosive strength that rivaled the most accomplished Rankers' Spell-stacking techniques.
In addition to her awe-inspiring elemental prowess, Shallot's Soul Sense became a potent weapon in controlling her adversaries on the battlefield. With a mere thought, she could manipulate their actions, causing confusion and disruption among her enemies. They would find themselves helplessly surrendering their weapons or freezing in place, granting Shallot and her allies a strategic advantage.
As tales of Shallot's legendary battles and feats spread, she became renowned as a monster prodigy. Her name struck fear into the hearts of her enemies and admiration among her allies. With the Elder Seed Artifact as her catalyst, Shallot Lancelot etched her name in the annals of history as a formidable force that transcended the boundaries of elemental magic, forever leaving an indelible mark on the realm of Anfang.
Being an Elementalist bestowed Shallot with a remarkable advantage— the ability to create elemental clones of herself. These clones possessed bodies formed from elemental energy and mirrored her very will.
These replicas obediently carried out her commands, granting Shallot the ability to confront multiple adversaries without succumbing to overwhelming numbers. At first, her elemental clones functioned much like those of any other skilled Elementalist. However, as Shallot advanced in her prowess, her clones developed an uncanny resemblance to her true self.
In some instances, merely dispatching her clones proved sufficient to dispose of enemies without Shallot herself being physically present on the battlefield.
Her feats grew increasingly astonishing as she honed her elemental powers and ascended to higher levels. Eren was taken aback by a particular account of her solo Titan kill. According to an eyewitness, during the fierce battle, the Titan inflicted harm upon his own arms with his own weapon, self-sabotaging his own efforts and ultimately enabling Shallot to secure victory.
Classified information attributed Shallot's extraordinary abilities to her unique Soul Sense and her mastery as an Elementalist. However, learning about the Elder Seed Artifact from Alephee and the goddess Great Mother shattered this presumption for Eren.
The butcher could see that the true source of her peculiar powers lay not in her path as an Elemantalist or Soul Sense but in the seemingly insignificant jewelry she wielded— the Elder Seed Artifact.

AN: Eren obtained classified information about House Lancelot from Rodrick in chapter 1256. Elementalists were first mentioned in chapter 1259.
