"I do not wish to refuse your request, especially since this is the first time in nearly a hundred years that someone has sought help from the Immortal Tribe. What makes it even more amusing is that a mortal is the one asking for help. Isn't that an interesting story to be written in history?"
In the future, Alkan would realize that leaving the female exorcist in the care of the Immortal Tribe was the right decision. After bidding farewell to the woman, he flew back north, to the forest where the necromancer’s power kept the land in its grip. He landed and summoned the Diamond Woman. He cleared his throat. "The sorcerer said you can restore Pilak and Anino to their human forms. I want them to take shape so I can communicate with them more easily." The Diamond Woman fell silent for a few seconds before ask

With the arrival of the dragon in the Tribal lands, the first war led by Alkan was set to unfold. The three kingdoms—Fairy, White Sawikin, and Black Sawikin—mobilized to destroy the dragon that was spreading terror in the East. Although the three tribes did not see eye to eye, they fought together against the dragon. "Who is that Black Sawikin flying in the sky?!" shouted some White Sawikin, who were battling corpses rising from their graves. "I don't know! But he's the only one among us who can fly! Our wings are useless against the force emanating from the dragon!" "Is that Black Sawikin trying to get himself killed?!" "Yes!" Manuel swung his sword and looked up at the lone Sawikin still airborne. His eyes narrowed as he stared at the familiar figure of the Black Sawikin. A corpse charged toward him, reeking of rotting flesh. He

"Master, use my power to destroy the dragon’s barrier," the Diamond Woman urged. Alkan wasted no time. The green glow of his sword turned pure white. The dragon howled in agony, struggling to shake him off. His sword plunged deeper between its eyes, and he heard something shatter within. His wings flared open, emitting a crimson light. "Mortal! What are you doing?!" the prince’s voice bellowed in his mind. Sweat beaded on Alkan’s forehead from the pain, but he fought against the prince’s attempt to seize control of his consciousness. "You will not win," Alkan growled, pouring out his power. The red light from his black wings intensified, forming ancient symbols that adhered to them, making them even stronger. "No! Don’t do this!" the prince screamed inside his mind.
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 79: Pilak and Anino return
The Diamond Woman brought him to a secluded tribe in the southernmost part of the land, far from the Black Palace. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in a forest beneath the scorching midday sun. He let out a deep sigh and closed his eyes again. "Master?" the Diamond Woman called when she saw that he remained lying on the grass. "Later," he muttered in a low voice. "I just want to rest." The Diamond Woman created a barrier to shield him from the sun. Then, she sat beside him, watching the peaceful dance of the leaves as the wind passed through them. They remained in silence for several minutes before Alkan suddenly opened his eyes, recalling something. "When will you restore Pilak and Anino to their human forms?" he asked. The Diamond Woman turned to him, lost in thought for a few seconds. "I could restore them now, Master, but some beings are approaching. It wouldn’t be safe for the two flames to tran

When Alkan woke up, the sun had already set in the west. Darkness had consumed the entire surroundings, and fireflies sparkled in the night, serving as the tribe’s source of light. He saw the diamond sitting at the edge of the bed, with two beings standing near the door. “Master!” the woman greeted. Because it was dark and he had just woken up, he couldn’t clearly make out the two figures, but when he heard the woman’s voice, he recognized Pilak. He quickly sat up on the bed, glanced at the two beings, then turned to the diamond woman. “When did you restore their human forms?” he asked. “While you were asleep, Master.” He got up completely and stepped out of the room. Kulitaptap greeted him. Aside from that, Alkan could feel a pure force emanating from the center of the tribe. There was a small cave there, and when he extended his consciousness earlier, he sensed a pure power coming from within

The arms and legs were chained to the floor, and the body was covered in lash marks. The long hair obscured the face. The skin was as pale as paper, and the figure was emaciated. This was the state in which Alkan found the tribe’s leader. He swallowed hard. “At first, the leader was not in this condition,” Yuli said with a sigh. “But ever since the dragon appeared in the East, the monster within him has become more aggressive. Even during the day, he can no longer recognize the people around him. He only wants to consume flesh and bones, so we decided to restrain him. He is no longer in his right mind.” Alkan frowned. “Why does he have lash marks on his skin?” Yuli looked at where he was pointing and dropped his shoulders. “That’s what we don’t know. Every morning, his skin just ends up like that, but no one has been seen entering this place. The guards say they haven’t seen anyone come inside—except for a stray cat.” “A st
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 1: San Roque, a place of mystery
When Alkan Buena showed up in San Roque, people couldn’t help but talk. He was a stranger, dressed too well for the small, dusty town, and the way he carried himself made everyone curious. Although curious, they had no guts to ask the newcomer especially when he brought the old mansion in the middle of the woods which was the home of the fallen Buena clan. It was said that whoever brought the house will bear the wrath of the gods. But Alkan thought that even before arriving to this old and remote town, he had already been a hardbringer of bad luck. It's because two months ago, his parents died in an accident, his elder sister died in her sleep, and his older brother died of an illness. Due to consecutive deaths of his family members, the debt they left behind all fell on his shoulders. He had no choice but to sell his properties and bring his wife, Valeria, into his old hometown. In order to bring food to the table, Alkan decided to become Manual Jimenez's business partner
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 2: Abducted by the winged men
"Shut up." Alkan didn't believe Gio's words and continued to watch over his wife. For the next few days, he didn't find anything suspicious so he let his guard down. Unbeknownst to Alkan, the black sawikin hadn’t actually left the house. It had stayed inside and never left Valeria's side. At first, Valeria was afraid. However, she became used to it. The black sawikin had already told her about the Tribal land -- the place where creatures like the sawikin came from, and although she didn’t fully believe it yet, the power and abilities that she had witnessed with her own eyes couldn’t be explained by science. Maybe it wouldn’t hurt to believe, even if she couldn’t trust the face of the sawikin man. That’s why she didn’t want Alkan to know the black sawikin hadn't really left. She knew he’d just worry and blame himself. The sawikin had said it wouldn’t leave her side until it got what it wanted, but it wouldn’t tell her its intentions. It just followed her around and rarely i

Alkan didn't answer the Mayor and hurriedly left the party.A few days later, his business finally opened but Alkan was not happy. “Alkan,” Gio called, sitting in the chair across from him. The sawikin tried to catch his gaze but failed. Gio sighed. “Don’t sink too low. Nothing will happen to Valeria.” He looked at the sawikin. “It’s been days, but the black sawikin hasn’t shown any signs. Are you sure Valeria’s still alive?” Gio’s lips formed a thin line. “Believe that nothing will happen to her.” Alkan cursed and slammed his fist on the table. “Nothing? Those monsters have no conscience. You’re not even doing anything to find her. You, bird clans, are worthless!” he said, standing up and storming out of the storage room. But when he stepped out, he saw Manuel. Alkan stopped for a moment before silently walking past the man. The white sawikin wouldn’t lend a hand to look for Valeria, and Alkan didn't know where the lair of the black sawikin was except for those white sawi

Chapter 75: The prince and the dangers in the East (1)
Alkan and the female exorcist landed outside the gate. They were quickly surrounded by guards. When the guards saw Alkan and the female exorcist, they were shocked. "A mortal?" one of the guards asked in astonishment, lowering his raised weapon. "You haven’t returned to the White Palace in months. Many things have happened that you are unaware of." He then turned his gaze to the female exorcist standing beside Alkan. The guard's eyes narrowed, and after a moment, they widened in shock. "Mortal, why are you with the traitor? Get away from her!" he shouted, raising his sword in front of the female exorcist. Alkan's vision darkened. "Where is Manuel? Inform him that I want to speak with him," he said through gritted teeth. "But, mortal—" "Do as I say!" Perhaps due to the force he released, coming from Menandro, the first king of the White Palace, the guards quickly moved. They lowered their weapons and stepped b

He took a deep breath and nodded. Kneeling beside Valeria, he gently brushed his fingers against her cheek. She remained unconscious, showing no signs of waking anytime soon. From the corner of his eye, he saw the female exorcist slowly open her eyes. He turned to her and spoke. "How are you feeling?" She scanned her surroundings before looking at him, then lowered her gaze to her swollen belly. "The prince’s child is still here," she whispered. Alkan followed her gaze. "Do you want me to…" "No." The exorcist shook her head and sighed. She lifted her head and glanced around. "Where are we in Tribal?" "Near the North, in the middle of a vast forest." The exorcist stood and took a deep breath. Her gaze fell on Valeria. "The mortal…" Her eyes narrowed. "Why does Valeria look so pale?" "A curse has awakened in her soul," Alkan replied, his expression dark. "The only way to break it i
Chapter 73: Unbreakable curse
After a few minutes, Alkan slowly descended. He opened his eyes. The whites of his eyes had turned black, and a strange smile played on his lips. In a blink, his expression and eye color returned to normal. The diamond noticed but didn’t question it—she simply smiled at him. “Master, you have successfully obtained the third power. Now, you can fully manifest your black wings.” “Black wings?” he repeated in confusion, glancing over his shoulder. He saw nothing there. The diamond chuckled. “Why don’t you step out of your consciousness first, Master?” she suggested. Alkan withdrew his awareness from within, and as soon as he did, a sharp pain seared through his back. He had felt some discomfort earlier, but he hadn’t expected it to be this painful once he was back in his physical body. He clenched his jaw and turned to look behind him. There, he saw the black wings. He stood up straight, a grin curving his lips.
