Golden Fox With System 148 Chapter 148: Heavenly Tribulation

They'd thought Theo had swallowed all those magic cores for such an improvement, but they sighed with relief when they saw he didn't have red eyes. They knew that people who used that risky method went crazy with bloodthirst when they did.

"Well, let's leave that talk for later. We still need to have breakfast, right?" Theo said with a smile.

"Yes." They all agreed.

But upon leaving the Workshop, Theo's face became completely pale… because the moment he stepped out, a new window appeared in front of him.

[You are about to go through the Heavenly Tribulation of the Royal Lineage. It will start in 30 minutes.]

It was only a few simple words, but they were enough to seriously scare him. Although he had never seen or heard much about it, he still had some understanding from his past life. He did not know how those people who wrote about it knew about it, though.

"Maybe they reincarnated there after dying in a cultivation world?" Who really knows? He, at least, wasn't sure about it, but if he could reincarnate in a world of cultivation, couldn't the reverse happen too? It was something he had doubts about, for many of the stories he came to read had a great deal of cultivation information. Therefore, he pondered on these questions.

"What happened? Why are you so pale, Theo?" Shina, who was the first to notice, asked him with concern.

"I don't have time to explain, just go back to the Workshop. I'm about to go through a Heavenly Tribulation. Just look it up on the internet to see if you can get information about it!" Theo shouted in her direction, hurriedly.

He didn't know if it was possible or not, that maybe if a person was close to someone who was going through a Tribulation, that the Tribulation could steal from them, making them even stronger and more powerful.

"G.o.d, I just hope I'm wrong…" Theo thought before he noticed that the sky was turning pitch black.

Dark clouds enveloped the sky over Ravenna City. It appeared to be focused above the orphanage.

Loud sounds erupted, and the sky overhead became filled with heavy lightning clouds. It was a magnificent sight and a first for everyone living in Ravenna.

It even scared those big Sects that were in the city. Soon they began flying up into the air to watch the event from afar. They dared not approach, though they had never really seen anyone go through a Tribulation before. They still had some understanding, though, and seeing that it was coming from the orphanage, they thanked G.o.d that they weren't foolish enough to try to force the orphanage girls to join their Sects.

"Now it makes sense why they didn't want to join a Sect…" The Beast Man muttered. Although, even if he muttered it quietly, all those nearby were experts. They could easily hear him, yet they harboured the same thoughts as he did.

A grandfather talking to his young granddaughter looked up at the sky and muttered, "Why did the sky suddenly get dark?"

A nearby bald man suddenly said, "Look!"

"G.o.d, please protect our poor lives!" Said the grandfather, looking up at the sky with fear in his eyes.

It was like a vision of the apocalypse, they immediately began to pray to their G.o.ds for salvation. They thought that the end times were coming for them. Of course, by living in a remote city, they had no way of knowing that this was because of someone going through a Heavenly Tribulation.

"Daddy!"

"Darling!"

"Theo!"

The orphanage girls were all looking at Theo with worry. They wanted to help him in some way. Yuki, Shina, Zaika and Zaira were looking for something that could help him better understand his situation. Yuki also wanted to know more about it, just to understand what was happening.

Theo also considered returning to the Workshop to protect himself. However, he noted that it was a stupid idea since the Tribulation was triggered only the moment he left the Workshop. He figured that he would not go through the Heavenly Tribulation while in the Workshop, and there was still a chance it could become even more dangerous if he did so.

Aine was inside the orphanage, listening to the commotion when a sudden thunderclap was produced. She went outside and was totally shocked by what she saw. For a moment, she also imagined that it was the apocalypse. It was a horrendous and frightening view.

"Theo, what's going on?" Aine approached him and asked.

"Just get in the Workshop." Seeing her standing there, stunned, he shouted, gesturing toward the Workshop, "Quickly! Go inside!"

"Y-Yes…" Not knowing what was going on, she ran toward the Workshop because she believed in Theo.

Theo looked up at the sky, and his body trembled a little, involuntarily. As he heavily sighed, he muttered, "I just hope I can survive this…"

Theo also noticed the people of the great Sects looking his way. He soon used his illusion skill to surround the entire perimeter of the orphanage in mist, preventing them from seeing what was about to happen.

"Theo, here on the internet I found that living beings who try to move from the Higher Wizard Kingdom to the Spiritual Kingdom need to go through a Heavenly Tribulation. However, it says nothing about a Royal Lineage's Tribulation or anything like that." Yuki says helplessly.

Theo sighed sadly, but he had already expected not to find out much. He looked at Yuki and asked, "But there are details about how these tribulations work, can you tell me what it says?"

"R-Right…" Hurriedly, Yuki began to read it out, as she didn't know how long he had, "Heavenly Tribulations appear to test the individual to see if he is worthy of his advancement. The one being tested may also choose to refuse the Tribulation, but then they would be eternally trapped in the Kingdom they were attempting to rise from."

Yuki then said in the same breath, "It also says that depending on your affinity, the tribulation may differ, but because yours is caused by the Royal Lineage I can't say what exactly will happen…"

Yuki and the girls had a pained expression on their faces.

Theo could only sigh and hope for the best after hearing all this. Yet, there was still something that worried him, but he would soon have his question was answered. Theo thought he might have stolen power from others if anyone else was near him, but he could see that by the time the girls and children returned to the Workshop, the Tribulation seemed to have gotten smaller, to a significant degree.
