Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 48: Into the black palace
Alkan’s expression darkened. If the anito had gone to the trouble of reaching out to him—a mere mortal—there was only one possible meaning. His situation was far more complicated than he had initially thought."What message does the ancient spirit bring?" he asked. Ancient spirit or anito is a god in this dimension.The priest stared at him for a moment before sighing. "Two things are needed to unlock the two hidden powers. First, sacrifice. Second, flesh and blood of the origin."He waited, but the priest said nothing more. His brows furrowed. "That's it?""Yes."His eyes narrowed. He didn't understand what the priest meant, but he stored the information in his mind. Maybe in the future, he would figure it out.The priest suddenly cleared his throat. "The female exorcist has a message for you."Alkan froze at the words and stared at the priest. A female exorcist? That woman still remembered him?"You need to rescue Valeria as soon as possible, before it's too late.""What do you mea
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 49: Caged woman
He heard footsteps. Approaching the room. He spread his awareness and realized that a woman was walking toward it. His lips pressed into a thin line. It seemed the female exorcist was coming. He didn’t bother to hide. Crossing his arms, he waited until the woman finally entered. Her brows were furrowed, and her lips were tightly pressed together. She cursed under her breath. Alkan raised an eyebrow. "It looks like you're having a bad day, female exorcist?" he said as he dismissed the purple flames surrounding his body. The woman froze and turned to him. She was silent for a few moments. He cleared his throat. "Is there a problem?" he asked. She averted her gaze and crossed her arms. "I didn't expect you to end up in my room, mortal. And where did you get that power? How did you enter the palace when there are so many sawikin outside?" "Why don’t you ask your priest acquaintance?" The woman’s eyes widened. A moment later, the corner of her lips curved. Alkan chuckled. Before th
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 50: Fleeing from the black palace
Violet flames engulfed him swiftly as he stepped onto the terrace. The female exorcist remained silent, having also heard the approaching footsteps. Moments later, the footsteps halted just outside the room.Alkan held his breath.The sorcerer was inside, yet he couldn’t gauge the true extent of the man’s power. That only meant one thing—the sorcerer was stronger than him."The ritual will take place tonight. Prepare yourself, for you are one of the keys to its completion," a deep voice declared.Alkan’s eyes narrowed. He recognized that voice—it belonged to the Prince of the Black Sawikin."Is that why you bound me to you? To complete the ritual?" the female exorcist asked.A faint rustling followed, accompanied by hushed whispers. The prince's words were unclear, and Alkan couldn’t make out what was said. He pressed his lips into a thin line."I suppose I have no choice but to obey, do I?" The woman let out a dry laugh

His stomach ached, and his throat was dry. He winced when he tried to swallow. Only then did he open his eyes, squinting as the blue sky greeted him."Ugh..."He tried to sit up, but his arms were too weak. Alkan frowned even more. Where was he? What was this place?He opened his palm and released Puro and Dilim. He sighed in relief before dismissing them. He thought he had lost his power.Closing his eyes, he allowed Puro to heal his body while extending his awareness throughout his surroundings.He was in a forest. Sensing his surroundings, he deduced that he was in the north of Tribal. He quickly opened his eyes and sat up. Now that Puro had finished healing him, he no longer felt any pain."The North," he muttered. A moment later, his brows furrowed again as he realized something. "Huh? My voice?"Why did he sound like a woman?"Andara! Andara! Where are you?"Alkan flinched at the shout. He looked toward the forest and saw a woman with pointed ears, two wings on her back, and a w

Alkan cursed under his breath. She had thrown his own words back at him. What a cunning woman! He gritted his teeth in frustration. "You have my word," he muttered, looking away. Andara smiled sweetly. "Good. Then you’ll remain tied up until we reach the island of the bakunawa." She walked away. Only when she was out of sight did the corner of Alkan’s lips curl upward. Andara believed he had lost his power when he entered her body. But what she didn’t know was that Puro and Dilim were still with him. However, he couldn’t feel her power, which meant he couldn’t use it. Perhaps Andara's magic had followed her soul, but because his body was different from the beings of this world, she couldn't sense her power. If he were to compare soul strength, his was far stronger than any creature in this world. Maybe it was because his original soul was sawikin, or perhaps he had received a blessing from an ancient anito. He wasn’t sure. Days and nights passed as Alkan remained at th
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 53: Green crystal (2)
Despite his confusion, Alkan remained focused on his goal. He looked down at the barrier at the valley’s entrance. In one swift motion, he hurled the silver fire at the barrier. A deafening explosion followed, throwing him back again, but he quickly commanded the wind to catch him midair. He exhaled in relief when he saw he was still floating. Looking down, he watched as the silver fire slowly consumed the barrier at the valley’s entrance. A grin spread across Alkan’s lips. He raised his hand and chanted an incantation. A hundred powerful bolts of lightning descended from the sky, striking the valley’s entrance. Eventually, the barrier shattered, and the storm of lightning ceased. Then, with another incantation, he directed the lightning deep into the dark valley. Two more bolts struck before a deep, guttural roar echoed from within. Alkan inhaled sharply. It seemed the lightning had hit the bakunawa. He quickly flew away from the valley, waiting for the beast to emerge.
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 54: Palace of Medefil
“Heh,” he scoffed and glared at Andara. Before long, two beings approached them and pulled Andara off him. “Friend, even if you are under the Captain’s protection, Andara is a hero. Please do not tarnish the reputation of the kingdom’s hero.” Andara merely smirked and shrugged before turning away and sitting back under the tree. Meanwhile, Alkan felt like a thorn had been removed from his side. He was uncomfortable when Andara brought her face too close—because it was his own face she was wearing. The two beings helped him up and escorted him back to his resting spot under the tree. He sat down and sighed. Not long after, the awaited carriages from the palace arrived. He boarded one, and the carriage took off into the sky. His eyes widened in shock. He didn’t expect carriages like this to exist in this world. Roshel even laughed upon seeing his surprise and asked why he was so startled—this wasn’t the first time he had ridden a palace carriage. “Can all carriages fly?” h
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 55: East, the home of shadows
And he lost consciousness...."He has been unconscious for days.""Leave him be."Alkan's brows furrowed as he slowly opened his eyes. He had been awake for a while but had been listening to the people around him. He had been conscious for two weeks.A fleeting emotion passed through his eyes. He had almost lost control of his raging power, but he remembered that one week in this world was only an hour in Tribal, so he calmed down. He let out a relieved sigh. If he was not mistaken, two hours had already passed in his original world.He secretly glanced around. His suspicion was correct—he was inside the Tower of Magic. He had lost consciousness after the sudden exchange of souls between him and Andara. Now, his soul was back in its rightful body.For the past two weeks, he had heard the conversations of people coming in and out of the room, including Roshel and Andara, who was now officially recognized as a hero across the kingdom. He knew it was because she had slain the bakunawa,

Chapter 119: The mortal
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
Chapter 116: A land engulfed in fire
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,
Chapter 114: Goddess of Death
"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
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’
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.
