The students were god smacked once more by the scene it was like a god was redrawing the landscape.
Lirians single swipe had cut a thick line into the slope and met up with the river that continued to flow right at the top.
Once the blinding light faded away they saw that the land it struck had completely caved in leaving a deep gash in the world.
Then they heard a slight rumbling sound and as they looked up the water from the river came gushing down the newly carved canal, it had a slight resemblance to the old waterfall then the water met the river and continued to flow like it had never been interrupted in the first place.
Seeing that the tribulation was over the students came back and surrounded Lirian who was panting slightly, and their eyes all fell on the blade in his hand.
It looked nothing like it did before, and they could feel the power rippling of it, as Lirian slowly planted the tip into the ground to support himself, draining all his mana had taken a heavy toll on him.
Ordinarily he would have simply used energy control to fuel the ability, but under a tribulation it wasn't possible, energy control was him taking control of the worlds natural energy, which was the same energy that fuelled the tribulation.
While he knew he was powerful, it was still impossible for him to win in a tug of war of energy control when he faced the heavens control over its energy.
Mordred and Edith were the first to return to him and their eyes couldn't leave the blade in Lirians hands.
It had been completely dyed in a metallic blue colour and a lightning pattern glowed brightly on the flat of the blade, it looked like lightning was constantly coursing through the blade and the handle had changed to, it originally had a black weave to act as a grip.
However, the weave was completely gone and the handle seemed to be apart of the katana, usually the handle could be removed or changed but now the entire thing was just one piece with the same colour, and thin streams of lightning seemed to dance up and down Lirians hand.
"That katana!" Edith said trying and failing to hide her surprise, "The way you made it, it's just like in the stories of great beings in the empire," she said in a shaky voice, after all she had just watched something happen that she always believed to be a legend.
"Is it really a Sacred weapon?" she asked Lirian, and all those in the crowd that knew of Sacred weapons stilled in anticipation of the answer.
Lirian could hear many people that didn't know what sacred objects were, asking around in the crowd.
"Sacred objects are special items often created through a series of coincidences," he said slowly grabbing their attention.
"These items grant their wielders, special abilities or benefits, however unlike the gear that most people forge these items cost their wielders no energy to get the enhancement,"
"In many stories about the great champions of the empire you may have heard of items that many of these champions kept by their side throughout their lives,"
"In the story of Dalgon, the greatest dwarf forger ever known, he always wore a set of armer called Vulcan, it was said that while wearing it he possessed power that could rival an immortal,"
"In the story of Izhar, the greatest assassin to ever live, he killed thousands of corrupted nobles and even kings and queens, he did it all with a pair of twin daggers we now call 'King Killer',"
"There is the flute of Arya a wood elf, when a song is played through it, barren lands become fertile and new life flourishes,"
"I suppose that the Sacred objects you'd be most familiar with is the 'Crown of Thorns' and the 'Crown of Roses' that only the emperor and empress may wear,"
"And of course, there is the most famous weapon ever known in all the stories, the sword Excalibur that was wielded by Arthur Pendragon, when he cut down the black dragon Shen who was born in a desolation,"
Lirian told them of a few more examples before turning back to his new Katana, "Yes this weapon is a sacred weapon, of course it isn't in the same league as those items…" he was cut short when a little spark from the sword stung his hand.
'Huh, it's consciousness is quite powerful for it to have been able to understand that I was calling it inferior,' Lirian thought that it was a pity that something so weak had grown such a powerful conscious.
The students had a vast amount of emotions running through their heads as they looked at the katana in Lirians hands.
Some felt envy and there were those that practically worshiped Lirian in their minds, for him to have a sacred object when he was just an ordinary mortal, it meant that his future would be unbelievable.
There were also many that felt anger, one person in particular was seething with fury, Hinata looked on with burning eyes, 'He was so close to dying, so why does he get something like that, can I even find a chance to prove myself and kill him, now that he has something like that by his side.'
But then her eyes lit up with her madness, 'I get it, the sword will be my reward for killing him, if I can kill him it will take me as its new master and people will speak of me owning a Sacred object, the nobles will come to me begging to adopt me into their families,' she thought with a twisted smirk.
'Perhaps I should thank him just before I kill him, no won't it be better if I use his weapon against him, yes I can just imagine it the look on his face when I kill him with what he thinks is his, he doesn't realize that fate let him make that blade so that I could take it,' she laughed in her head as she realized the truth.
'I can't compete with the noble's advantage as I am, but with a Sacred Object I will be able to stand above them, fate is truly looking out for me,' she thought convincing herself of this truth.
"Hey man, can I try out your blade? it looks awesome," Mordred said coming forward to Lirian with his eyes eagerly looking at the katana.
He knew that it was rude to touch someone else's items a sacred object no less, but this could very possibly be his only chance to wield such an item, so he had to give it a try.
Lirian had a strange look on his face, 'How did he find the blade, honestly with the amount of fate particles I have it would make sense if I found it while looking for it personally but for him to find it, it should have been impossible.'
As Lirian pondered in silence he focused the system onto Mordred and initiated a scan of his fate string and he received a big surprise.
[Requires 50 million fate particles to do a scan]
If he wasn't wearing a blindfold they would have seen Lirian's eyes bulge out as he looked at Mordred, it wasn't that 50 million was to much for him to spend it was in fact a paltry amount to him, but it was higher than even the candidates.
The way it worked was that he would need a higher number of fate particles than the person he was scanning unless they allowed it to happen, this meant that Mordred held just shy of 50 million fate particles.
Even the other candidates who were the focus of the nobles throughout the empire held only about 1-3 million fate particles each, yet Mordred held 50 million it was insane to say the least.
'Proceed with the scan,' Lirian ordered the system and spent the fate particles it wasn't much to him anyway.
Lirian wondered if the incredible amount of fate particles was because he came from the ancient families, and he was being constantly monitored after all no one knew if the ancient families were friends or enemies.
In all this time he didn't waste his fate particles on examining the people in the academy, because he felt that he'd completely outgrow them and their only interactions in the future would be when he dealt with their families, however, there was one other possibility and Lirian wanted to find out.
As he looked through Mordred's info, he found that his body had already reached 200 while his other centres of power were stuck at that 20 mark that people couldn't pass without cultivating.
Of course Lirian faced no such restriction as a former god.
Lirian looked at the info and sure enough it was there.
- the heavens look on you favourable and have a task for you to fulfil granting you it's boon (×5 fate particles)
Lirian saw that the boon wasn't as great as his but it was still powerful, in his time he had seen many leaders of the immortal realms with a (×5) boon, and some of them went on to become gods, it was half of his but he knew it meant that the heavens had a great destiny planned out for Mordred Pendragon.
