“What?” Rafael comes closer, before whispering to Daniela’s face. “You ask me when did I get this blessing of immortality? I’ve always had it for the last 900 years. The thing about me getting the curse from Howard McKenzie was all lies.”While Daniela is still holding the broken sword and her wounded belly, Rafael is busy rummaging through her clothes to find the key to Nimeza’s chamber.It’s not that hard for him to find it. He has been observing Daniela all this time. He takes the necklace out, and even grins with an amused face by showing off that necklace at Daniela. He really behaves so differently, like he is a totally different person.“We’ve long known they are going to use him as the next candidate to inherit Nimeza’s core,” utters Rafael while holding his chuckles, leaving Daniela in her agony. “We've been setting this up for a long time, and this war is just one of the many ways to force him to lead me to this place.”On the other hand, Musgly hasn’t completely finished fo

Luckily for them, Musgly appears, already in his forged spirit form, and confronts Rafael, hunting him with his sharp blade-like limbs.He swirls and swirls, while delivering nonstop slashing attacks, either like a tornado or darting in a swirl like a screw.“Fuck! Not you again! Be gone!”Rafael waves his left hand from below, and releases his bituminous liquid, making it look like an elongated limb delivering a whiplash.Scrriiieechhh!!! Musgly screams as one of his limbs is severed.At least, he is able to give Namsqeem a moment to regroup, and soon, together, they try to make Rafael busy as best as they can.On the other hand, Miarnin’s fusion with Dean hasn’t finished yet. Unlike with Almas and Dastan, currently Dean looks calm, without enduring any pain.He is still under the influence of Nimeza’s core, which is still strongly stabilizing his soul and spirit energy.What he is experiencing right now is passing dreams after dreams, as some of Miarnin’s strong memories flash in hi

Rafael puts on his usual innocent face, by suppressing his aura and hides his evil intention, thinking that he can trick Dean again.“Oh, I'm just checking your condition,” Rafael smiles.Dean squints for a moment, but then simply slams Rafael’s head so hard on the floor.Brakk!!!He wasn’t going too hard, but it’s enough to create a wide circular crack on the ground. He takes a pause for a moment, lifting Rafael’s face once just to see the bituminous liquid has been solidified covering his face.The next second, Dean repeats it again, slamming Rafael’s head on the floor, over and over. In that short time, he is able to read that all this time he and his friends had been deceived by Rafael.The thing that makes Dean even more annoyed is about what Daniela might feel at the moment. He knows they are not lovers, but Dean is already aware that Daniela has deep feelings for Rafael.“You do know how she feels about you, right?” Dean stops the bully for a moment, just to see Rafael’s respons

In the monitoring room, Daniela is lying on the floor, unconscious, but still breathing. Camran is trying to do whatever he can. But the problem is...“Her internal organs have been seriously damaged. I don’t know if I can save her life if it’s already like this.”Dean is currently standing by the door of that room, and gets the chance to hear his word. His face looks so in pain, picturing another regret he has to endure.But somehow, his facial expression drastically changes, as if he has just gotten some revelation. He comes to Daniela and touches her bleeding belly, making his hand wet by her blood.He uses the blood to draw some unique magic circle on the floor, which attracts everyone’s curiosity.Not just a magic circle, he also draws some sigils inside it, and then asks Camran to put Daniela inside the circle.“What’s this, Miarnin?” asks Camran.“I’m going to save her,” says Dean. “Please stand back!”Everyone moves away from Dean and Daniela. Afterwards, they hear Dean chantin

It is already past 11 o'clock at night, but the house is still so busy and merry with Yerzan's cries. At least, Mary manages to stop the kid’s crying and puts him to sleep.Dastan and the others are finally able to continue their discussion more calmly. Yes, since Dean and Camran left, Dastan deliberately made this house as their meeting place instead of using Belestia Palace.He’s also stayed here with the three Dastan people he trusted most; Neda, Fardad, and Zandhos.There is also one Amanet Warrior, Daskar, and two representatives from the Yarzhan tribe currently attending the meeting in the living room.And there is also Marvini, a woman from the Miarnin tribe who doesn't have red hair."Has there been any news from Camran?" she asks."I tried to contact Kosha this afternoon," Zandhos sighs. “But his phone number was out of reach. I bet they are still in the middle of the jungle right now.”“What exactly does Camran want to do to our Miarnin?” Marvini averts her attention to Das

He slowly gets up, chuckling softly, before his cackle turns crazier. Looking so amused, he feels so excited to experience how great that pseudo-immortality he has."So, is this what it feels like to be immortal?" He mutters, before turning around to show off.But there, the mad in his face slowly fades away as he realizes what has happened to his father.“Dad? What? What are you doing here?”He really has no idea what he has just done. There’s still some of the bituminous liquid in front of his body, but he still doesn’t realize that he was the one who injured his father while he was unconscious.“Zulfik?” Amanet mutters with his mouth full of blood. “When did you get that…”Unfortunately, the wound Amanet has just received is a fatal one, with blood has flooded his lungs.Unable to continue his words, he slowly closes his eyes and collapses, lying lifeless on the corridor floor.“No!” Zulfik kneels down, holding his head. “No! What have I… Daad! No, please! Nooo!”The face which has

Less than an hour later, he has landed right in the middle of enemy soldiers, at one of their military bases.Seeing his appearance landing with bituminous liquid, these soldiers mistake him as one of their comrades.In this state of neglect, they are blown away by Zulfik's fury. He grabs the cannon of a tank gun, and then lifts the tank before swinging it around like a hammer.“Valery! Come here and fight me!!!”He is bombarded by so many bullets, but none of those bullets can penetrate his thick skin which has also been covered in his bituminous liquid.Unfortunately, his madness doesn’t last long. As soon as Valery appears and walks so calmly towards him, Zulfik seems so powerless to oppose him.“Ugh! What's this? I…Why can't I move my…”Once close enough, Valery puts his hand on Zulfik's shoulder, and without exerting the slightest strength, he forces Zulfik to kneel in front of him."Well, at least you are not as troublesome as Florian," utters Valery. “Don't blame me for your fa

The two fighter jets from Estuaria have just reached the Acrary southern border just before noon, after more than three hours of flight from Medreisten.Meanwhile, on land, troops led by Antonin Tavitian and Harley Conrad have difficulty breaking through Dastan's defenses at Hullback Town, a small town on Zalfari's northernmost border.This is the only entrance to Zalfari from the east, with only one roadway in the Grotie Hill. It is at this point that Dastan focuses his defense by building a simple fortress on the edge of the hill, which has now also been strengthened by reinforcements from Estar.“Not yet? Why are they taking so long? I've lost all my lovely drones!”Harley Conrad, even with his advanced mechanical suit equipped with two mana powered jets which allow him to fly, still isn’t able to get near the fort.He is constantly bombarded by lightning bolts, as well as fireballs casted by Madiyar and Mary. There are only these two mages who can do magic in the rebel group, but

Even until the next few weeks, the situation in most places in The Democratic State of Yegristan, is still in chaos. Some of the vampires feel so relieved after finding out that they no longer have to drink human blood.But some of them are upset about losing their immortality. And their numbers are much greater, who are now venting their frustration and anger by causing chaos in society.But there are also some of them who do not realize what is happening, recklessly carrying out vandalizing, lootings and robberies, but later ultimately shot dead by the police.The current president is actually a half-blood from the Almas tribe, and he is still affiliated with the rulers of Estuaria.Instead of calming the chaos in his country, he is now in Medreisten, attending a meeting, which is also attended by representatives from two other kingdoms, Aflar and Ustobia.Even after Valery's death, these three countries are still under the influence of the Estuaria government, which is now under Sam

All the zombies in the forest, the dead vampires, Zulfik, and Harley, are now silent, swaying gently with blank faces.They stay like that, at least until all the specters within their bodies come out, and scatter in all directions. And instantly, all these lifeless bodies collapse.All the Manes in this forest are also getting out, seeming to be uncomfortable with the condition of the woods which have been covered in ice.They are interested in the stability in the area around Nimeza's core. The appearance of these Manes later catches Dean's attention.“I can't let them get near that stone.”Dean rushes over to the jet black stone, which is currently still in Valery's hand. Somehow, Valery’s hands are now slowly petrifying.This is what happens to people who lost their drive to live due to the effects of Nimeza's core, just like all the six previous kings of Yegristan who failed in inheriting that stone.Not only does he die, but every organ, cell and molecule in Valery’s body have b

Dean glances around to examine his situation. Suddenly, Namsqeem comes out of the soul shard which Dean keeps under his long blazer.“What is this? Why I feel so heavy?” asks Namsqeem.Dean doesn’t say a word. But at least, he looks so relieved knowing that the situation in Belestia Hill must have been secured.“These undead?” mumbles Namsqeem, seeming so familiar with Valery’s way of thinking. “He is going to use them to give him some space to cast his spells.”“I know,” Dean affirms. “Why don’t you deal with them, so I can handle that man?”Namsqeem makes his move. His sudden appearance has ruined all Valery’s plan. Now Valery needs to find another way to deal with Dean.But suddenly, he sees the arrival of so many missiles in the sky, coming from the east. They look so fast, because time passes with a different flow between inside the dome and outside it.All the missiles explode without being able to penetrate the dome. Yet, Valery still looks so upset, and Dean notices his sour f

Blood spurts from his mouth as his back hits the rocky cliff, where he gets stuck in the cracks caused by the impact.The crack then collapses, and he falls along with those rocks into a fairly large river below.A few moments later, Dean emerges from the river, floating to the edge, before he lands on the river bank, and immediately kneels down while coughing.“That was dangerous,” he mutters.His body releases thick haze, not just the steam of evaporating water from his soaked long blazer, but also the effects of his regeneration skill healing his wounds.There Dean realizes that his self-healing ability is much faster than usual. But still, that is no reason for him to feel safe.This regeneration won’t be able to raise him from death if one lethal attack kills him. Not to mention about the situation in Belestia Hill which he has been worrying about.“I can't be careless now. I have to end this as soon as possible.”Soon, he notices the emergence of fires in the forest. Even though

Zulfik's headless body is still floating while flapping his wings, as is Harley's headless body in his mechanical suit.Both of them are still alive and still able to control their bodies, at least until Valery pulls out the curse of immortality he once placed on them.Two blobs of bituminous liquid come out of Harley and Zulfik's bodies, before evaporating in the air. Only after that, the two headless bodies fall down as lifeless corpses.Apparently, these betrayals have disappointed Valery so much that he no longer wants to trust anyone.“I know you loved sacrificing your pawns to achieve your goals. But why?”Dean asks coldly, speaking in Nimeza language, and it’s effective to draw Valery’s interest.“Why you killed them now when you should be able to use them? Is this how you are going to create peace in the world?”To find Dean so fluent talking in that language, even with the native accent of ancient Zalfari people, Valery replies to him also in Nimeza language.“I don’t need the

Despite his indifferent attitude, believe me, he is really in a precarious condition right now.This is one of the side effects of Nimeza's core on him, which makes him always at peace, completely indifferent to life and death.One of the negative effects is that he has not been taking his fight seriously, which ultimately leads to his current situation.The only thing now which makes him think seriously about his fate is because of the safety of his wife and kid.But on the good side, he can still think calmly despite his situation, taking his time amidst the clouds, as if relaxing on a soft mattress.“Okaay, why don't I try to dig up a little of the memories of those old men?”He closes his eyes, trying to remember, as if what the four ancient apparitions had experienced in the past is his own experience.Unfortunately, they’d never been in a condition like this, and there is not the slightest memory where they had a technique which allowed them to fly.Until then…“Let's try the th

That’s the message given by Valery. And Antonin knows so well how important this warning is. That’s why he only tries to waste time, with so much alertness, without any intention to get close to Dean.He swings the two weapons from a distance, and again releases many ethereal weapons in all directions.These ethereal weapons linger around for a few minutes, spinning and floating randomly around Antonin, like satellites orbiting a planet.“What is he thinking? Is he going to attack me or not?”The movement of those ethereal weapons makes Dean a little confused, because they look more like protection instead of an offensive technique.But then, the ethereal weapons orbiting on the outermost side are getting further away from Antonin. Even though they are still circling around Antonin, they are starting to head towards Dean in their orbits.Dean steps away to avoid it, and then some of the ethereal weapons disappear into the thin air. Even so, Antonin still continues to swing his gryphon

After such a shocking surprise attack, which has destroyed the military ranks complete with their tanks and trucks, the situation suddenly becomes so quiet.Only the sound of moans of pain can be heard, accompanied by the sound of flames shooting out from the burning oil tanks of several trucks.And there is a man in a black long blazer, with most of his head wrapped in a cloth, standing in the middle of the chaos.“Go back to your homes!” he exclaims in a loud voice. “This is the final warning. You will not get anything good even if you win this war. It doesn't mean there will be a chance for you to win it. If you leave now, I’ll guarantee your safety from my wrath.”His voice is so loud, as if he is speaking with a megaphone. It even reaches the ears of a few soldiers in a tank more than 50 meters away.“Who is this guy?”“Who cares? Let’s see if he still can say a word after eating this one!”Soon, the tank open fires, shooting one HEAT (High Explosive Anti-tank) projectile, which

Valery can clearly feel her strong presence, but he is still in the state of confusion at the moment. After all, the last time he met Zamira was already more than two thousand years ago.He just assumes this strong presence is just one of the high-skilled Defteros taking part in the battle in Hullback Town.Until then, one of his pawns, an ancient specter named Shaheen, comes to him to informs about something.“Master! I just felt the present of Namsqeem in Belestia Hill,” he says.“Namsqeem?” Valery mutters curiously, feeling quite familiar with the name.“It’s Cresta’s lovely pet,” Shaheen informs.“Oh, that little one,” Valery sneers.“I don’t think you can call him that way now,” Shaheen reprimands. “It’s been two thousand years already. And there’s another strong spirit creature with him at moment. I’m not so sure if he is a specter or a mane. But there’s something strange with his form. It’s similar to what Cresta did to Namsqeem in the past.”Valery's facial expressions change.
