Instead, he sought another White Sawikin. Even if they were not pure like Gio, their essence would be enough to awaken his fourth power.
He felt the surge of that fourth force within him as the flames devoured the bodies. Sweat formed on his forehead. The fire soon faded, and Alkan noticed the approaching White Army. He recalled his flames and pulled Gio away from the White Palace. The Sawikin remained in shock, but Alkan ignored him. He swiftly arrived at the Necromancer’s forest in the center of Tribal. Landing, he strode toward the towering balete tree. The area was restricted—no one could enter or leave without his knowledge. Summoning Pilak, he ordered her to watch over Gio, who remaine

Hot. It felt like he was inside an erupting volcano. His throat was parched. His blood felt like it was boiling, and his skin was burning. Water. He needed water! Suddenly, a cold sensation flowed through his chest. He let out a relieved breath. A few seconds later, a force tried to take over his being. Alkan furrowed his brows, resisting it. He knew that if he allowed this force to consume him, his existence in the world would be erased. "Mortal, let me enter your body. You cannot fight the Council. I will battle them for you," a voice whispered. Alkan froze. "Who are you?" he asked. "You and I are one. I am the Ancient Anito named Argus." He was silent for a moment. Then, he scoffed. "Why would you possess my body if we are one? This is my body, so don’t even try!" "But the Council is strong. You cannot defeat them." "Whether I can or not is none of your concern. This is my bod

"Why were the fairies so easily driven out of the dimension?" Gio asked in confusion as he watched the fairies evacuate to Tribal. The ordinary fairies were the first to flee, while the nobles and the queen remained in the palace. The corner of Alkan’s lips curled. "The strongest fairies are still inside the palace. What do you think that means?" Gio glanced at the palace. "The fairies are planning something." "Exactly. The queen is currently waiting for a prophecy from the clairvoyant," Alkan said, raising his hand. Blue flames mixed with wind emerged from his palm. "But my patience is running thin!" He hurled the flames at the palace. Slowly, the blue fire spread, engulfing the structure. The palace servants screamed, and the fleeing fairies stopped in their tracks, turning back to see the burning palace. "Is this the end for us?" one fairy asked, trembling as they stared at the palace. "Hurr
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 94: Surikong returns
The destruction of the First Dimension, where the fairies resided, became the talk of Tribal. Fear spread as rumors circulated that the end of Tribal had come and that the Anito would judge all beings in the land. In the South, where the witches were holding their annual ritual, a bright light slashed across the ground. In an instant, a figure with pointed ears appeared, carrying a sleeping young girl—a fairy. The witches on guard quickly surrounded the stranger. "Who are you?" the leader of the group demanded. The clairvoyant scanned the area, sensing an eerie black energy radiating from the witches. She swallowed hard. As someone of high status in the Fairy Kingdom, she had grown up under the palace’s protection. This was the first time she had faced witches—beings her fellow fairies had long described as evil creatures that lived in the South. So, the queen's power had sent her to this place. They had barely escaped the
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 95: Ancient king of the black Palace (1)
That was one of the orders given to Surikong by the Council. He had received a message last week about the being from the prophecy. So, he went to the dimension without the fairies’ knowledge and waited for Alkan’s arrival. The mortal did not disappoint him. The king accepted the drop of blood and stepped toward the center, where a large glowing symbol was etched into the ground. The markings on the light pulsed with power. He let the blood drip into the middle of the glowing circle, allowing the two black feathers to fall in as well. He chanted an incantation, and in an instant, black smoke engulfed the surroundings. "W-What’s happening?" a witch asked as they felt their strength draining. The witches surrounding the ritual collapsed to their knees, except for Surikong. Meanwhile, the king smirked and guided Valeria toward the glowing light. "Your Majesty," Valeria whispered worriedly as she, too, felt her energy fading.

Alkan glanced to the side, where Matilda occasionally peeked at him. He saw in her eyes the desire to approach, but she lacked the courage to face him. He sighed and turned to Yuli. "Don't think about it anymore. I need to return outside." Yuli nodded and simply watched as he flew out of the barrier he had created for the tribe. Cloaked in illusion, Alkan scanned the tribes he passed by. He noticed that everyone's energy was vibrant. He stopped mid-flight and furrowed his brows at what he saw. What was happening? He followed a carriage carrying a young manananggal woman. He saw a group heading toward the black palace. They came from a lush forest full of mysterious creatures. "I heard the ancient king has yet to choose a maiden he fancies," one of the woman's companions remarked. Alkan landed silently atop the carriage and stood there. The vehicle moved slowly, but it was enough to awaken the sleeping powers. He sat down an

The young woman stepped down from the carriage and looked up at the sawikin who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. When their eyes met, she gasped and lowered her gaze. "How may I serve you?" she asked. Alkan stood up and spread the pair of black wings on his back. He took to the sky, followed by the ancient king, who neither responded to nor glanced at the young woman. "Who are you?" Alkan asked when he stopped flying and turned to face the black sawikin trailing behind him. The sawikin also hovered in the air, studying him from head to toe as if analyzing something intriguing. Alkan frowned. He did not like the way the sawikin was observing him. Moreover, the manananggal woman was still looking up at them. "You’re the mortal under the care of the white palace?" the sawikin asked in return. Alkan’s lips pressed into a thin line. Though he couldn’t see it, he could feel the sa

The diamond was silent for a few moments before responding, "I am not the right being to answer that question, Master." Alkan's eyes narrowed. He could feel the black force weakening, but he knew it had not disappeared completely. It could resurface at any moment and influence his mind again. He flew toward the black palace. Even from a distance, he could see the black sawikin in chaos. Most likely, it was because Arelano was no longer in Tribal. A faint smirk formed on Alkan’s lips as he landed before the massive gate. He waved his hand, dispelling the illusion around his body. "Who are you?!" a guard demanded. Alkan ignored him and strode into the hall. The other guards merely watched him. Though they wanted to stop him, there was something about Alkan’s aura—like a king walking through his own palace. He stopped before a grand door. It opened, revealing th
Overlord of the Four Powers Chapter 99: War in south
In a secluded tribe where immortals resided, a female exorcist silently gazed at the sky. The sun was setting, and the cool breeze brushed against her cheek. The tribe leader approached and stood beside her. "An unknown entity attacked the black palace. A fire that could not be extinguished consumed the palace that had stood in Tribal for millennia," he said. The female exorcist took a few seconds before nodding. A faint smile formed on her lips. "What news is there about him?" she asked the leader. "No one knows where the mortal is, but he was spotted at the black palace." Her eyes narrowed, yet the small smile remained. She recalled Alkan’s promise—to bring down both the black and white palaces. Now that he had ended the rule of the black sawikin, she knew the white palace would be next. She could hardly wait. She wanted to witness the fall of the kingdom that had destroyed her tribe. Meanwhi

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.
