He stared at Zena.
"I don't know whether the girl is a human or a creature from Randle either. She's fast and strong, and she's good at seducing men," Kaven said in response to a strange glance from Levin.
The next second, the indigo dome disappeared, and they exchanged positions while attacking their opponents, much to Zena's and Irsen's surprise.
Kaven opened a dimensional hole, sucking up all of Irsen's bats while Levin kicked Zena until the woman hit the gate.
As time went on, the atmosphere in front of the Palace of Naturi became more chaotic. The number of enemies made them quite overwhelmed. They became reckless humans since being under Rion's command.
On the stairs, Rion and Trish were still fighting with the fake Aiden.
"Forty," Rion muttered. He raised the mana level he used. As his speed and energy increased, the level of danger from each of his attacks also increased drastically. The mana he released disturbed the concentration o
The swords collided and created airwaves that made the walls and the objects around them crack. The next second, they engaged in a fast-moving fight that was difficult to follow by normal sight.In the palace yard, Trish, who had defeated his opponent, turned to face the winged reptiles that attacked him on the stairs. He wanted to follow Rion, but the creature kept coming. He clicked his tongue in annoyance.Trish channeled more mana into his sword, and he swung the sword in the air. A curve of bright brown rays drove away all the creatures until they disappeared. He turned to the side and did the same to the creatures that came in the opposite direction.Then, he ran into the palace, leaving the three Black Panther members behind. He hoped the king was fine. For six years, Trish had kept the promise he made with Lucas, and he didn’t want that promise to end today.Back there, Zena was overwhelmed by Levin’s attacks. She was a Succubus, a creature who could absorb human energy that w
***Back at the Palace of Naturi, Kaven pulled out an arrow on Guen’s back that was lying on the floor.“Adriel, stop the bleeding.” He looked up at Adriel.“She’s our enemy. Just because she’s beautiful, you lose your sanity,” Levin said.“But I can’t leave the injured woman in front of me. After all, Boss, doesn't Golden Ash have some debt at Luminous?”“Adriel, stop the bleeding quickly.” Hearing the word ‘debt’, Levon immediately changed his mind. Adriel objected, but he still stopped Guen’s bleeding with a little god's blessing he inherited from his mother, who was a saintess.Roul thought that King Elbert and Princess Guen could give them more information about Aiden and the people who conspired with the man. Aiden’s case had to be crushed to its roots becaus
"Your Majesty…?" Kaven, Levin, and Adriel were surprised because they did not know the mental disorder that the king was suffering from.Soon, Rion, who was being taken over by Lucifer stopped his laughter. His jaws tightened as he glared at Aiden sharply, along with a chilling sensation that spread around him.Aiden didn't laugh or grin like before. He put on a flat face while observing Rion carefully."Ugh." Kaven held his chest because it suddenly throbbed painfully. The same thing was felt by others. The sounds of piercing cracks could be heard from the walls, pillars, and objects around them.Lucifer released up to eighty percent of Rion's mana. The pressure was massive and powerful."Agh." Levin gritted his teeth as he felt his internal organs being pressed. His head felt like it was about to explode, and his joints were incredibly hurt as if they were about to come
“Y-Your Majesty… a-are you alright….?” On the threshold of his consciousness, Trish still wanted to make sure the king was fine.“Hold on, Trish!” Rion laid Trish’s body slowly. Roul, Adriel, Kaven, and Levin approached them hurriedly.Adriel reacted quickly to stop the bleeding. Meanwhile, Rion, who saw Aiden trying to run away, stood up and threw his sword at Aiden. It pierced the man’s back.A subtle cracking sound was heard from inside Aiden’s body. Five seconds later, it shattered into pieces. The surrounding darkness gradually disappeared, replaced by a bright blue sky with fluffy clouds.“COUGH!” Rion coughed up blood. He was about to fall, but Roul immediately supported his body. The man helped his king to sit beside Trish.Adriel tried his best to stop Trish’s bleeding, but the bleeding didn’
Knights in black uniforms were seen in the capital of Naturi. They spread to various sides of the capital to find and escort Panthera’s citizens, who wanted to go back to their home in Panthera. All the citizens who saw them were very grateful.After being haunted with anxiety and tension for quite a long time, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.The people living in the center of the capital were also relieved when the darkness above them disappeared. The sky had returned to normal, although the confusion still lingered in their heads.The knights on the border also felt confused after they were free from the influence of Aiden’s magic. The palace of Naturi was also in chaos because the knights’ heads were scattered everywhere. They were terrified to see the corpses of their friends.Roul and Adriel visited the palace to find out about the women and children who were sold
“What are you guys doing? And why aren’t you sleeping?” Rion asked, looking at the little girl in his embrace, then he turned his head to the other children.“We are making flowers,” the black-haired girl replied. He showed Rion the white rose petals made of cloth."Wow, so beautiful. Did you make this?” Rion asked, and the child nodded excitedly.“We’re doing crafts and teaching them some skills,” Angela explained after Rion and Trish walked closer to her and the other caretakers.“It’s good,” Rion smiled, then he sat down in front of the tools and materials the children used to make crafts. “Can I join you?”“Sure, Your Majesty.” Angela smiled.The children’s laughter filled the silence of the night. Rion really enjoyed his time with the c
“You didn’t take the pill?” Rion asked.Odette shook her head. Why took contraceptive pills when her husband was not around?“I’ll take it after this," she said.“You changed the instruction. Doctor Cecilia said you have to take the pill before, not after.” Rion was busy unbuttoning his shirt.“Before or after, it’s the same.”“How do you know?”“Because I’m smart.” Odette smiled as she glanced at Rion’s muscular chest and ripped stomach.One of her favorite sights was the six-pack abs of handsome men. Every time her mother watched classic dramas, Odette was happy to accompany her mother. She did that so she could see the male actors who wore clothes with their chests wide open wide, revealing their incredibly beautiful muscles. It always made Odette’s blue eyes sparkle.While Rion was away, she enjoyed herself by regularly watching the knights train in the morning and noon. Of course, Rion didn’t know that. After all, it was a secret.She kept smiling as Rion started to embrace her f
Trish accepted the reason given by Anwen. “This is indeed difficult, but Aiden must be held accountable for his actions.”Anwen lifted her head and looked at Trish, who was smiling at her. She was a bit startled when Trish touched her cheek.“A depressed expression doesn’t suit this face. It only fits with a cheerful expression,” he said, making Anwen’s face blush.“So you weren’t mad at me because I made a mistake, Princess?” Trish lowered her hand and Anwen shook her head.Trish smiled brilliantly. He reached into his shirt pocket, then took out the purple bracelet he made at the orphanage and gave it to Anwen.“What is this?”“A dragon. Of course, it’s a bracelet.”“Is it for me?”“Yes.”“But I don’t like wearing accessories.”“Then I will just throw it away.”“Oh, no!” Anwen immediately held Trish’s hand, who was about to throw the bracelet into the pool. “I didn’t say I didn’t want it.”Trish laughed lightly, then put the bracelet on the girl’s wrist. It made Anwen’s heart flutte
