Not only were the black sawikin sacrificed for Arelano's resurrection, but also the princess of the witches. Driven by his desire for more power, Surikong agreed to offer his own daughter—along with Ambong—as part of the ritual.
However, after Arelano’s revival, Surikong was left in regret. He had given everything, yet it was not enough to satisfy Arelano’s thirst for power. After the fall of the black palace, Surikong went into hiding for several months. When the white palace collapsed, he began planning his conquest of the South, carefully studying the manananggal and vampire tribes. For nearly five years, the South was plagued by chaos and conflict between its two dominant factions. Yet, none knew that Surikong was the mastermind behind it all. He sought to pit the two races against each other, weakening them and reducing the number of powerful factions in the South. Now that he had gained Celya’s

A vast, frozen land greeted Alkan as he stepped through the portal. The sudden shift in temperature caused blood to trickle from his nose. He quickly wiped it away and surrounded his body with flames before scanning his surroundings. He extended his consciousness, sensing no living being within a thousand kilometers of his position. But the moment he attempted to reach beyond two thousand kilometers, something forcefully crushed his awareness. "Urgh!" He coughed up blood and immediately withdrew his consciousness. Who could suppress his mind so easily? Standing upright, he wiped the blood from the corner of his lips. Now that he had arrived in the land of gods and goddesses, he was bound to encounter beings he had never seen before. He needed to be cautious—he had no idea how strong they were. But what puzzled him was his exact location.

In all his years overseeing the tournament, this was the first time two factions refused to fight. An entire night passed. The sun was moments away from rising in the East—the official end of the battle—yet still, no fighting had taken place. Just as the announcer was about to speak— One by one, members of the first faction collapsed. Silence fell over the battlefield. The sun rose—and only the third faction remained standing. The announcer blinked in shock. What just happened? "Outrageous! What did you do to the first faction?!" a fighter from the second faction demanded. The third faction leader shrugged. "We won, didn’t we?" he said, turning to the announcer. The poor announcer gulped and glanced up at the black circle.<

"Do you know what your wish truly means?" the woman asked, smiling as she looked at him. Alkan pressed his lips together. "According to the agreement, you must grant all wishes. You wouldn’t go back on your word, would you?" The woman laughed. "You really are an interesting being. But becoming the king of this land filled with criminals? What are you thinking? Do you not wish to leave this place?" The corner of Alkan’s lips curled. "Will you grant my wish or not?" The woman turned away and wrote something in the air. Moments later, the inside of the circle glowed, and in an instant, Alkan felt an unusual coldness enter his body. "You are now the owner of the wasteland, its king, and all the creatures within this place will become your followers. I hope you won’t regret your wish," the woman said, raising her palm toward him. He suddenly felt something push hi

Alkan exhaled. Finally, the battle was over. Drako had been right. The lions used two combined energies—water and fire, air and earth—to create powerful magic. Together, they were unstoppable. But once separated, their weaknesses were exposed. "Do I get a reward, Master?" Drako asked. Alkan looked at the dragon and laughed. He raised his hand, and a fruit from Tribal appeared. Just last night, he had discovered that the dragon loved fruits from Tribal, claiming it was tired of the ones from this dimension. The dragon also knew by now that Alkan was from another dimension. That was part of the ancient king’s decree—that if a being from another dimension ever arrived in the wasteland, that being was destined to obtain the treasures of the tomb. Together, they entered the second region. Alkan was amazed by the energy surrounding him. It was different from the pure energy of the spiritual
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 109: The third region
Before the sun had fully risen, Alkan’s group was already traveling toward the third region, where the council resided. He believed he was strong enough to defeat Arelano. He planned to deal with him first so he could finally put an end to their conflict as Menandro. He also thought that now that he was in the dimension of gods and goddesses, defeating the black sawikin would be much easier. "Master, may I hunt for some food first?" Asha pleaded while looking down below. They were currently flying through the air on the back of a swift bird monster. Alkan glanced downward and saw an abundance of animals and fruits. They landed on the ground, but to his surprise, the animals suddenly vanished. Even the fruits disappeared like bubbles in the air. His eyes narrowed—an illusion. "Show yourself!" he commanded the being responsible for the illusion. "Hehehe. I

Arelano paused briefly but quickly regained his composure. "Why don’t you rest first? I’ll take you to your room." Alkan raised an eyebrow and laughed. Without warning, he unleashed four flames—silver, purple, black, and red—and hurled them at Arelano. "You just arrived, and you’re already in a bad mood," Arelano chuckled, raising his hand. A barrier of shadows formed in front of him, bouncing the flames back toward Alkan. "I’m not here for pleasantries," Alkan said. "Aren’t you?" Arelano clicked his tongue and clapped his hands. The sound of heels echoed from the grand staircase. Alkan turned and saw the woman he had expected to find here. "V-Valeria…" he whispered. The once radiant, sparkling eyes had been replaced by a cold, emotionless gaze. The sweet smile on her lips was gone. What had they d
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 111: Fall of Arelano
Alkan conjured a whirlwind mixed with water. Arelano narrowed his eyes and released shadows that engulfed the entire palace. But shadow manipulation was also one of Alkan’s abilities, so the darkness had no effect on him. He spread the four-colored flames from his feet, sending them across the furniture, up to the ceiling, until the entire palace was engulfed in fire. With the darkness dispelled, he saw sweat forming on Arelano’s face due to the heat. The corner of his lips curled. "Is that all you’ve got?" "Don't get ahead of yourself, mortal!" Arelano shouted, summoning two massive black wings on his back. They spread wide, creating a powerful gust of wind that extinguished the flames and once again covered the surroundings in darkness. Drako transformed into a dragon, while Asha turned into a serpent. The two worked together to defeat Arelano, while Alkan focused on casting a curse.
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 112: War in the first region
By the time they reached the entrance to Ashura, the sun was already high in the sky. The closer they got, the worse Alkan felt. He had a strong feeling that something terrible would happen the moment he stepped into the council’s territory. But they were already here—there was no turning back now. With firm resolve, he stepped into Ashura. What greeted him was a row of warriors. Alkan blinked in surprise. "I, the general of the First Region’s army, have been tasked with stopping the Third Region from invading the Second Region—the land of the monsters! Prepare yourselves! We will strike at nightfall!" a man on a shining white horse declared. It was no ordinary horse. Its radiant body glowed under the sunlight. "Master, it looks like a war is about to break out in Ashura," Asha murmured, glancing around. "I can't sense any snakes nearby, so I can't gather any information." Alkan’

The sun shone brightly, and its rays hit Alkan’s closed eyes. He frowned, slowly opening them as he sat up from the grass. He let out a deep breath. It had been seven years since his family died in an accident. All of his parents’ assets had been passed down to him, but he was too lazy to manage everything. So, he decided to buy several hectares of land in Alegria to turn into a farm. He entrusted his most reliable staff to handle the companies left behind in the city. Just the other day, while negotiating with a landowner, a man suddenly called out to him. The man claimed to be a priest whom Alkan had saved from the Black Palace. But Alkan denied it, thinking the stranger was mentally unstable. Because of that weird encounter, he decided to postpone his land purchase. His assistant came running toward him. "Good day, Sir!" "Did something happen?" he asked, standing up. "The office in the city called. They said your travel documents for your flight to Europe have been proces
Chapter 118: End of first region
Her name was Matilda, one of the loyal followers of the ancient king. Since the first century, when the king fell into slumber, and up until Alkan’s time, the woman had remained faithfully by his side. She was also the one who set Alkan’s destiny in motion, leading him to this dimension. "Your ancestor was the descendant of the ancient king. He sent his own heir to another dimension to keep them safe from those who lusted after power." Matilda sighed. "At that time, not a day passed without blood spilling upon this land. When the ancient king learned that others sought to kill his only heir, he did not hesitate to use half of his power to open a portal to a world he believed would accept them." Alkan stared at the sleeping man. Time had not affected his appearance—in a single glance, one might mistake the ancient king for his older brother. "He tasked me with setting the fate of his descendant’s heir so they would one day return to this world—to save a land filled with conflic
Chapter 117: Destroyed barrier
The rain fell gently that day. The entire land was silent after the third region was consumed by fire. The rain had not stopped since that day, filling the witnesses of the gods’ and goddesses’ wrath with unease. But what everyone anticipated was the next move of the one who had dared to challenge the strongest beings in that world. "Master, there is still no movement from the first region," Asha reported. Alkan swung his sword slowly. At that moment, he was studying a new form of combat. He had discovered this mysterious technique from books salvaged from Ashura’s palace. After the palace burned, Asha’s serpents had found a secret door that remained untouched by the flames. She informed him, so he went to investigate and found an ancient library. It contained many old tools and battle techniques. According to Drako, they were from the first century—the era of the ancient king. Without hesitation, Alkan took everything and began studying them. "But a strange creature has been

Alkan nodded. "They never witnessed any movement in or out of the wasteland." He turned toward the third region. "And it seems there's an imposter among the ministers of Ashura’s palace." "What do you mean?" "No one should have known about the pit inside the wasteland unless they had planted a spy. But I rule the wasteland, and no one from the third region has infiltrated it. This can only mean… that minister is from the first region! We need to return—it’s a trap!" he declared, flying back to the third region. Just as Alkan suspected, the minister who first spoke at the meeting was an agent of the palace from the first region. Once he confirmed that Alkan was in the wasteland, he quickly signaled his allies stationed around the third region. A battalion stormed and took over Bendito, another army occupied Ashura, and the prince of the first region went to Celes to seize the queen. Whe
Chapter 115: A trap
Alkan’s appearance never returned to the way it once was. His hair and eyes remained split in two colors. But that didn’t stop the monsters from recognizing him as their new master. With the council—once the pillar of the third region—gone, the highest-ranking officials of Bendito and the remaining leaders of Ashura’s palace decided to appoint Alkan as the ruler of the third region. He had no choice but to accept the position laid before him. Now, three regions of the world followed him: the wasteland, the third region, and the second region. Yet, despite having the power to command these territories, his concerns in the past few days had not disappeared. There had been no movement from the first region, which puzzled him. Based on the information he had gathered, the first region would never retreat unless they were planning something ominous. "Master, my serpents cannot enter the first region. There is a barrier repelling all monsters at the entrance. They tried to circle around,

"It has been millennia since I last saw you. You were just a small child then, but now, here you are, planning to slaughter the very beings who once nurtured you." Alkan clenched his fists at the words. "Nurtured?" He let out a dry laugh. "You stole my power and stripped me of my freedom in the name of the fairy kingdom. You murdered my parents. All you've ever done is ruin my life and the lives of the beings in Tribal!" A smile played on the anito’s lips. "Why wouldn’t we? The inhabitants of Tribal are nothing but weak creatures. A mere flick of our fingers, and your lives would vanish into the wind. Shouldn’t you be afraid of the council? And yet, what happened? You established three kingdoms and enslaved all the beings in Tribal. You made yourselves gods, but… before us, you are nothing more than an ant." "An ant?" Alkan laughed at the insult. "So that’s how you see Tribal?" His grin widened. "Why don’t you ask the gods and goddesses of the first region who the real ants are? Did
Chapter 113: Welcome to the Council of Anito
The blood had already poured from the top of his head, but the general still tried to stand and face him. "Do you even know what you're doing, fool?" "You wanted to fight, so I gave you a good one. What? Can you still go on?" The general gritted his teeth in frustration and immediately charged at him. Alkan just shook his head. Even though he was wounded, the general refused to back down. One of his subordinates finally spoke up with concern. "General, we still have a battle later tonight." "Silence!" the general shouted, continuing his attack. Alkan dodged repeatedly, occasionally slashing the general’s face. By now, the general’s entire body was covered in bruises and wounds, and his blood wouldn’t stop dripping. Alkan’s brows furrowed. He had no time for this fight, so he decided to end it. With one decisive strike, the general collapsed. He didn't kill him, but who knew if the man would still be able to f

But shadow manipulation was also one of Alkan’s abilities, so the darkness had no effect on him.

Drako transformed into a dragon, while Asha turned into a serpent. The two worked together to defeat Arelano, while Alkan focused on casting a curse.
