Adam knew he was in trouble. ‘Was this the fault of the system? Absolutely. Can he blame it? Kind of,’However, it saved his life and gave him the opportunity to be strong, so the best option, for now, was to carry on with the flow.Carl already knew he was here, and there was no way that they would not look into him. Still, there were no records of him in West Coast city. And very few people know who exactly he was. However, he couldn’t get caught, if he wanted to keep the people he cared about safe. The problem was the dire wolf mother still could not move, and he had to protect it for the time being.‘Maybe I should bring them here and hide,’ he couldn’t move the Mother. However, once he moved the cubs, she would follow. What worries him is making her angry. Especially before he gets the dire wolf transformation. For now, it is best to focus on what he can do.‘Where is this crown of the down?’ He could only see books.There were no signs of any valuable item in the room. It look
Adam was lost, but he could only carry on. For the time being, he couldn’t find a way to improve his body. Because he couldn’t access the Crown of the Dawn. And he felt that was not so unfair. After all, it was something made for Kings and Emperors.He also did not know that he had become the centre of a tremendous storm that was only calm around him for the time being. It was as if he was the eye of the storm.He was currently playing with dire wolf cubs who now find him to be more amusing than a threat. He waited until things quiet down to take a walk toward Westwood through the ruins under the cover of night, just to check if there were any human activities.After finding nothing is out of the place, he finally rested beside the dire wolf family.……Two days passed in the ruins and Adam spent most of the time of these two days collecting herbs. Basically, he collected everything he was going to use on the Dire wolf for the next few days. Because he was planning on hiding inside the
‘Who is this Adam?’He was currently laughing like a fool and reading the system messages. He ignored the dire wolves that were eying at him like a maniac. He finally got the prize he was looking for, the Dire Wolf transformation.Although the process took an unknown time, and he was almost unconscious during the period, it was a small thing compared to the update that appeared in the Ability panel.Wolf Transformation (Basic) - Host has the ability to transform into a wolf maintaining the conciseness (no time duration - no side effects) (Upgradable – General points 3000 Ability points - 4)Dire Wolf Transformation (Basic) - Host has the ability to transform into a dire wolf maintaining the conciseness grant three times of the effective strength, agility and Intuition of the host’s normal body (no time duration - no side effects)He finally got the Dire wolf transformation. And also, he got his wolf form upgrading condition, which was great. However, he didn’t want to waste the General
It was the night at Westwood. And as usual, animals and beasts started their night activities in the dark, hidden from one another. One was waiting for the prey, while another was hiding from its predator. Great deer were the biggest herbivores in the Westwood forest. And they rarely had any predator that threatened, unless they went too close to the high pass mountain. They rarely had their guard up against most of the animals, unless it was a large number of wolves or a Giant python. However, wolves were not brave enough to go against this massive beast. Especially with their iron-like hooves that can kill just more than several wolves with a kick. And for the Giant Python, well, it was more about running away. Besides, they rarely attacked great deer since they were not an easy meal for them. However, tonight there was a difference. The moon was covered by clouds and darkness had enveloped Westwood. Among the shadows, a blood-red pair of eyes watched all the movements in the fo
The next morning West Coast city was in a heavy mood. Most nobles didn’t care about the execution that was about to happen. Still, not that much of a common thing for normal people. Sure, people in the Crimson Empire usually went through enough wars and fights, but a public execution was a rare thing. Usually, punishments were carried out in the Military area or the palace area of the city. And this was the first time in many years there was going to be a mass public execution. Besides, someone spread it overnight throughout the city. Especially in the port district by the guards. And by the morning, many people gathered in front of the Harbour where the execution will be carried out. Many refugees and natives gathered and waited patiently to see what exactly would happen. Because no one knew how many would be executed today. Rumours spread that everyone related to the Butcher’s gang would be on the line. ……….. “How dare that bitch,” the old man slammed at the table with anger, i
“What exactly happened that made this woman go so crazy?” The old patriarch of the Baron family had only a little bit of fight left in him. Because things totally went south during the execution. First, they didn’t expect the Empress to be there by herself. And second, the way she reacted to the protest of the people was completely out of their expectations. And the outcome of the drastic events didn’t end in their favour. After all, the men that died today were supposed to work for them. It was a direct slap in their face. They carried this execution order without discussion or approval of the imperial court. Even though officials had a say in such matters, they just ignored this one. Especially because it was just the execution of twenty or so mere thugs. Also, because it was a decision made by Elena Lionheart herself. In the end, whatever the imperial court says, her word was the law. However, out of everyone’s expectations, the number of death row prisoners had increased by a
Adam had been doing his daily tasks almost for two weeks by now. And things were going great for him. However, there was a tingle of regret left in his heart. Firstly, the Dire wolf mother was getting her condition restored fast. Except for the part where he had to hunt more to feed her, there was nothing wrong with that. In the past two weeks, he hunted four Great deer to feed themselves. And by now, he considered himself an excellent hunter in hunting Great deer. No longer he was disgusted by the feeling of fresh blood entering his mouth or getting bloody in the hunting process. Although, he had not completed the system mission of winning the loyalty of dire wolf cubs yet due to their mother’s careful eyes. Still, they no longer considered him as an outsider And his Dire wolf form coupled with his shadow concealment had become a deadly natural combo to any enemy. Maybe on a fine night, even an 8th tier warrior like Carl would not be a match for him. However, what he was happier
Adam found himself in a dark hidden cave after falling through the bushes. Lucky for him, it was only a few meters deep. And that was nothing for him with his E+ agility. He could see the bit of light leaking in from the hole he fell through. ‘Where is this?’ it was too dark for him to see anything. Unlike the previous cave, where the inner sanctum was located. This looked like a more natural cave. However, there was a familiar smell that warned his senses about a familiar danger lurking in the dark. There were no system messages, indicating that he was not in immediate danger. ‘Not good’ he was not feeling well about the situation even after the system ignored it. Because, in the dark, he could smell the fading scent of humans. Adam didn’t hesitate to take a torch from the system storage. He lit it after making sure there was no immediate danger surrounding him. Cave was about two meters tall and had a similar width. He could see it was getting wider to the far, from the l
“Amazing.”Despite her words, the older girl saw several teardrops in the eyes of her little sister, and she didn’t say anything about that. The story was sweet and sour. She picked her up and held her against her chest. Their mother and father were talking with some other families in the distance. Many pilgrims and worshipers walked around them, and some were telling the same story as her. It was the story of a legend. “That is the story of the Great Blood Wolf.” The older girl ended the story, holding her younger sister’s hand in front of the massive statue of their Grand Empress and Her Consort. The Blood Wolf. “Oh….” Her little sister looked elated, looking at the massive statue of the couple. The greatest rulers of the world. She knew her sister would ask about this story again and again, but she was happy to see her little tail swinging in excitement. “Are you happy?” “Yes. I am very happy. I want to be as strong as the Grand Empress in the future.” “Of Course, you
“Grandfather?” The old man shook when he heard this call. He wanted to strangle this thing to death, but first, he needed an answer. “Why did you do that? Why did you kill my Grandson?” His face looked tired and battered. Time was not a concept for him, and he hoped to see his Grandchild someday. He came here because he almost felt the presence of his little boy. However, it wasn’t him. He looked at Chaos. He remembered the day when he first saw the two-headed infant drifting across the universe. Their first meeting wasn’t a good one. The first time he met him, this kid attacked him and even injured him. However, he treated Chaos as a child and even adopted him into the family. He grew up together with his only Grandson. They were great friends and family. His Grandson never treated Chaos badly. That was the reason he permitted Chaos to go with his Grandson when he left to become the first Guardian of the universe. He was the one who even granted this power to his Grandson on
Adam crashed onto the ground with full force. He didn’t want to slow down when he saw the hideous figure standing on the beach. He knew what it was. He gritted his teeth to ignore the head-splitting pain that came with the memories. He was finally looking at the nemesis of this world; Chaos. Adam wished he could end this thing with one blow. Because it was something that shouldn’t exist. He was betting the lives of too many people, and the life of the Empress. If he failed right now, he would fail the entire world forever. His punch landed inches away from his target, but that thing moved several metres away with ease. The ground shattered under his blow, and the foul stench of the chaos entered his nose. He finally understood why the world and Mahisha failed to access this ground. Because it was contaminated by Chaos. He already created armour around his body and coated his sword with the aura of the Abyss. He didn’t have a reason to drag this. ‘This is not going to be
“Still nothing, commander.” “What exactly is going on?” Morga Steelbeard was lost. Not in the sea, but in his own thoughts. After two long months in the sea, they finally found their destination. As the second fleet commander of the Crimson Empire, he had an army of his own. Although it was still not at the level of Sakura’s fleet with twelve warships and two supply ships; his seven-shipped fleet was the second powerhouse of the sea. The land was just ahead of them, but they failed to find anything even after searching for two days. The western continent looked desolate and abandoned. There were not even large animals. This was too alarming for him. They saw birds and small rodents, but nothing bigger than that. The forest looked untainted for generations. He didn’t even think about sending a landing party. The risk was too much. ‘What exactly is happening?’ They passed through the so-called barrier about a week back, and there was nothing in between the northern continent an
“We should leave!” “Yes, Your Majesty.” Adam smiled, looking at the Empress. He wondered how many changes she made within the day to the castle. “I changed the 12th floor entirely. You should go and see.” “I will, Your Majesty.” He was sure it would be a combination of blue, shades of blue, and some gold, white and silver, and more shades of blue. There was nothing more to think, but he knew way better than to voice it out. ‘It is a good thing I have Mahisha to help her.’ He wouldn’t get any time to train his powers if he had to change the Abyss castle by himself. He sometimes felt the Empress was playing with the castle because it could be changed based on her simple thoughts. He didn’t care much at all. As long as she was happy with it. When she came here for the first time, she had a lot of complaints about the dull colours and the bad choice of material. In the end, he had no choice but to let her handle the decorations and colours as she pleased. “Not now. We have
Adam moved fast and landed in the area he saw the camps. He simply nodded at the people who started greeting him,He already found Alex, and he didn’t seem to be alright. “My Lord!!”Adam nodded at David before entering the tent. Already, there were several healers around the bed, including Mila. ‘Not good.’He felt Alex’s breathing wasn’t stable. “What happened?”The people made way for him with ease.“My Lord. There seemed to be a weird poison.”“Poison?”He didn’t smell any poison, but he realised Alex was unstable. Someone had removed the clothes from his upper body. His veins could be seen on his chest and there was a back lump on his chest. The wound was gone, but he wasn't getting any better. “Hm… Divine power.”He didn’t expect the enemy to use such a weapon. If it was before, he would have had a hard time dealing with this, but not anymore. The divine power was just another source of power restricted to this world. Although it was the most powerful, it wasn’t powerful en
“Are you alright?”“Yes, Your Majesty.”Adam sat with the Empress, looking at the two girls playing on the beach.To him, knowing the truth didn’t hurt much. Rather, he felt relieved to know the truth. ‘Am I angry?’He couldn’t say no. He was angry. If he didn’t lose his father, things would have been much different for them. Maybe… Just Maybe… His mother could have survived. Of course, it would have changed many aspects of his life, including moving to the West Coast, but he wished his mother to be alive. However, knowing the Church of Light might be behind his father’s death didn’t sting as he thought it would. As for how he knew his father was dead; that was because of what he saw in the underground of the church. There were hundreds of dead bodies being held there, draining the liquids from the,He didn’t know what was the exact process, but he saw the so-called Life potion coming out of that facility. Besides, Helen confirmed this matter. ‘If not for Amy and Zafira, I would ha
“We have to run!” Oliver heard someone yelling, but he didn’t know what to do. “He followed the orders of the king, coming here to destroy the Summer Palace city. The reason was to simply buy them more time. According to the information they received, the army was led by the infamous three Generals of the Crimson Empire. Since the main army was already divided into three, there shouldn’t be enough power to fight against twenty 10th-tier powerhouses at the same time. Besides, the Crimson Empire army should have more than enough Dwarven machines to face them. However, there shouldn't be enough time to move them for a defensive battle or to mount them on a wall. In a sense, there was no way this city could stand against them. What really worried him was the results. They were doing all these things based on the assumption that the owner of the taboo name wasn’t as powerful as they said. However, he didn’t understand why they were underestimating the revenge of the Crimson Empi
Alex floated toward the north using his magic. He wasn’t as weak as he once was when he passed through the Summer Palace city long ago. However, it was a lie to say that he wasn’t afraid. Their original battle plan was to separate their enemies by attacking the different parts of the Blood Baron Kingdom at the same time. Also, by using a portion of their units and the help of the Kingdom of Boria, they should have been able to delay the reinforcements from the other five kingdoms. Lady Helen was to show herself at the Dwarven mountain to create a distraction and intimidation. That wasn’t all. He was the one that took out the enemy scouts near the borders of the Crimson Empire with ease. Then he asked for the help of Lady Helen to take on the Wind Hold city to prevent any news from leaking to the rest of the city. He knew their enemies would realise the threat once the army was divided and Lady Helen fortified the Dwarven mountain. It all went as they planned, but he realised h
