The Peak of Dawn

Chapter 4: Chapter 4: The Mysterious Challenge



Sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves and shines on Renault's body, forming patches of light. He still sat cross-legged in the corner of the garden, his hand clutching the Book of Dawn, his eyes fixed on the words on the page. The golden light faintly shone out from the palm of his hand, as if it merged with the sunlight around him.

"Renault, what are you doing?" A crisp voice interrupted his cultivation. Renault looked up and saw a young girl in a lilac dress standing not far away, it was none other than Arya Winter.

"Kaoru'er?" Renault was slightly stunned, then showed a smile, "Why are you here?" "

Arya Winter walked over slowly, her eyes fell on the "Book of Dawn" in Renault's hand, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes: "This is the Book of Daybreak?" "

Renaud nodded, with some doubts in his heart: "You also know this book?" "

Arya Winter smiled slightly, with a hint of mystery in her eyes: "This book has been circulated in the family for a long time, and it is said to be related to the ancient 'Power of Dawn'. It's just that very few people have actually seen it. "

Renault was shocked, and he realized that the book was more important than he had ever imagined. He asked in a low voice, "Do you know where this book came from?" "

Arya Winter shook her head: "I only know that it has to do with the family's secrets. Brother Reno, where did you get this book? "

Renault was silent for a moment, and finally decided to tell her the truth: "This book was given to me by my great-grandfather. He said that I had the 'power of dawn' sealed in me, and this book could help me unlock that power. "

"Great-grandfather?" Arya Winter was slightly stunned, and then showed a look of sudden realization, "I see." There have always been rumors in the family that the great-grandfather did not really leave, but hid in the shadows, guarding the family's secrets. "

Renaud nodded, his heart filled with gratitude to his great-grandfather. He whispered, "He told me that only by awakening the 'Power of Dawn' can I truly save my family. "

Arya Winter stared at Renault with a hint of determination in her eyes: "I believe in you, Brother Renault. You will succeed. "

Renault smiled slightly, and a warm current welled up in his heart. He was about to continue his cultivation when suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps came from a distance. Renaud and Arya Winter looked up at the same time and saw Alex hurrying towards him with a hint of anxiety on his face.

"Renault, the family elder has an urgent matter looking for you!" Alex said breathlessly, with a hint of unease in his eyes.

"Elder?" Renault was slightly stunned, then stood up, "What happened?" "

Alex shook his head: "I don't know, the elder just asked me to take you there immediately." "

Renault nodded, carefully put away the Book of Daybreak, and followed Alex towards the family chamber. Arya Winter hesitated, then followed them.

In the family meeting room, the atmosphere is particularly solemn. Several elders sat on the high platform with serious faces, and in the middle stood a middle-aged man in a black robe, who was the tester who tested his strength yesterday.

"Renault, come here." A gray-haired elder saw Renault come in and immediately beckoned him forward.

Renault stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "Elder, what are you looking for me?" "

The elder was silent for a moment, his gaze swept over Renault, and finally landed on the Book of Dawn not far behind him. He whispered, "Renault, where did you get that book in your hand?" "

Renault was slightly stunned, and then replied, "It was given to me by my great-grandfather." "

"Great-grandfather?" The elder frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something. He was silent for a moment, then raised his head with a hint of seriousness in his eyes: "Renault, this book is related to the family's great secrets. Do you know why it's in your hands? "

Renault was shocked, and he realized that things were far more complicated than he had imagined. He whispered, "My great-grandfather said that I have the 'Power of Dawn' sealed in me, and this book can help me unlock this power. "

The elder was silent for a moment, then said slowly, "Renault, the 'Power of Dawn' is not an ordinary force. It is derived from ancient legends and has the power to change the world. And you are the heir to this power. "

Renault was shocked, he never imagined that he would be burdened with such a heavy responsibility. He asked in a low voice, "Elder, what do you mean?" "

The elder sighed, a hint of worry in his eyes, "Renault, the continent of Avalon is facing an unprecedented crisis. The dark Ones are quietly rising, and the only thing that can stop them is the Power of Daybreak. "

Renault's heart tightened, and he realized that his mission was far heavier than he had imagined. He asked in a low voice, "What can I do?" "

The elder raised his head with a hint of determination in his eyes: "Renault, you must awaken the 'Power of Dawn' as soon as possible. Only then will you be able to save the clan and save the entire continent of Avalon. "

Renault's heart was shocked, and he felt a sense of responsibility that he had never felt before. He raised his head and looked at the elder steadfastly, "I'll try, Elder." I won't let my family down. "

The elder smiled slightly and nodded, "I believe in you, Renault. You have the potential to be a hero. "

At this moment, the tester suddenly spoke: "Elder, we have just received news that an abnormal dark aura has appeared at the edge of the dark forest. It is rumored that the dark forces are gathering there. "

"Dark Forest?" Renault was slightly stunned, this name was not unfamiliar to him. He remembered that his great-grandfather had mentioned that the Dark Forest was one of the most dangerous places on the continent.

The elder nodded, "Renault, you must awaken the 'Power of Dawn' as soon as possible. The rise of the dark forces is imminent. "

Renault's heart was shocked, and he realized that time was running out. He raised his head and looked at the elder steadfastly, "I'll try, Elder." I will awaken this power as soon as possible. "

The elder nodded, with a hint of relief in his eyes, "Go ahead, Renault." Remember, you're not fighting alone. The family will fully support you. "

Renault nodded, turned and walked out of the chamber. Alex and Arya Winter stood in the doorway, waiting for him to come out. Seeing Renault's expression, Alex frowned slightly: "What's wrong?" "

Renault was silent for a moment, then raised his head with a hint of determination in his eyes: "The dark forces are rising, we must prepare as soon as possible." "

Alex and Arya Winter looked at each other, a hint of worry flashing in their eyes. Arya Winter asked softly, "What are we going to do?" "

Renaud raised his head and looked at the dark forest in the distance, his heart full of determination: "The first thing we need to do is to help me awaken the 'Power of Dawn'. Only in this way can we stop the rise of the dark Ones. "

Alex nodded, "I'll work with you, Renault." "

Arya Winter also smiled slightly: "We will all support you." "

Renault's heart warmed, he raised his head, and his eyes flashed with determination: "Then let's start today." For the sake of the family, and for the sake of the continent of Avalon, we can't give up. "

The sun shone on Renault's body, and his figure looked particularly determined. He knew that this battle had just begun, and he was ready.
