“Junyah’s son? That’s unexpected.”
“I know right!”
While gobbling up food, Alaqon was sitting opposite the composed Lanistra and recounting his short-lasted adventure with the Night Adjudicator.
The two Demon Lords had nothing in common and, as the 66th Demon, Alaqon would seldom be granted an audience with Lanistra. However, ever since he mentioned his meeting with Leiu and how he helped him, Lanistra no longer treated him with indifference or hostility.
Their territories weren’t close to each other, but, as of late, Alaqon was either getting invited by Lanistra or visiting on his own. He was welcomed with much hospitality and no one dared to do anything to him.
“Curiouser an
The lack of real ‘sensations’ and the somewhat blurry surroundings clearly suggested that he was in a dream. Nevertheless, Leiu felt completely aware and a little bit confused to find himself back here again.It was the same gloomy room in which he was supposed to fight the man who had ‘taken’ care of him when he was young. In the first time, the Darkness had swallowed his opponent in an instant. However, it was different now, as it was not a man who faced him but a youth.He had long raven-black hair that reached his back, thin dry lips, sharp jet black eyes, a long-bridged pointy nose, and small scar above his left brow.Suffice it to say, the young man was entirely unfamiliar to the perplexed Leiu. For that reason, he opted for silence while trying to figure out what was happ
The System informed Leiu that Rotten Pot died, however, the fight has not ended yet. Instead of vanishing into thin air, Rotten Pot rose back to his feet and tried to grab the Dark Knight’s sword but the latter bashed his shield in retaliation. More bony projectiles appeared behind Rotten Pot and were about to shoot at Leiu only for him to disappear. Startled to see his opponent going invisible, Rotten Pot used the spell from earlier and caused rotten hands to surge from the ground but they still could not immobilise the target. Before he had the time to retreat, Rotten Pot was tackled by the Dark Knight then bashed on the head. ‘-143’ ‘-279’ ‘-678 (Critical)’
The Pixie Kingdom wasn’t as big as Ferywonia or the Ice Snowlands, however, it was still a sizable piece of land. To expunge any trace of the Shadow Cult from the pixies’ domain, Leiu and his companions have to thoroughly search the place.Fortunately, in addition to offering to repair and enchant his weapons, the Pixies were more than happy to lend their assistance.The twin blue pixies, So’ly and Bo’ly, were going to accompany Leiu and the rest and aid them in locating the hiding cultists.Without the explicit consent of the pixies, it was impossible to access their real home. Then again, Leiu already knew that the Shadow Cult was here not to provoke or attack the Pixies but to capture one of the rare creatures that regularly ‘escape’ from the waterfall.
The orb in Rotten Pot’s possession absorbed the necessary quantity of blood and the final touch was to fuse it with the Dead Man’s set.Just as Rotten Pot started the fusion, an explosive shock wave struck him. He was blown away, part of his gear getting burned by Fairti’s white flames.However, not even this minor setback stopped the outraged player. Rotten Pot did not even restore his Health or pay any attention to his enemies. The sense of urgency and the desire to complete his Grand Quest pushed him to the edge.Instead of sacrificing his body and transforming into a malevolent and power beast made from Black Magic, Rotten Pot chose the alternative.The Dead Man’s set let out a hoarse and creepy sound as it emitted
While Leiu and Seo Ae-Ri were doing their beast to limit the Black Mundus Beast’s movement by severing its legs, the cultists aimed at the beast exposed back and dealt as much damage as possible.Fairti, who was back on his feet and no longer injured, carefully approached the target while throwing one magical bomb after the other. Instead of aiming at its limbs and risk hitting his companions, he tried to damage the neck or the head, which were both elusive and hard to reach.Earlier, when Leiu tried attacking its head, it fiercely retaliated and even dodged its attack, which could only mean that it did not want to be in that specific spot.The conjuring of magical bombs was taxing for the blonde-haired noble, nevertheless, he ignored the slight dizziness he was experiencing and relied on the distraction
The troublesome and dangerous part of the Black Mundus Beast was its neck and head, especially the latter. The majority of the cast spell originated from the hideous small head, but after it was scorched by Fairti’s flames, the rest of the fight became dramatically easier.Leiu and Seo Ae-Ri cooperated with each other and relied on their defences to resist unavoidable attacks. Meanwhile, Fairti and the Shadow Cultists led by Rog kept their distance and never stopped their destructive bombardment.Eventually, ten minutes after the neck and head were burned to ash, the Black Mundus Beast was felled. However, as the thick legs crashed on the ground, neither Leiu nor his friends dropped their guards.The Dark Knight, with the Blade of Revolution in hand, faced the leader of the cultists, ready to con
“Are you sure you want to stay, Fairti?” “You make it sound as if we’re separating forever. I’ll be here when you’re back.” “Alright. Take care… and don’t cause any trouble.” Leiu sternly looked at the noble, who had more than ten pixies sitting on his head and some playfully poking his face. Since their equipment was broken during the fight against the Black Mundus Beast, Leiu decided to make a short trip to Earth. Although it was risky, he had to go and speak with Hye Nari as she was the only one he could trust and her contacts and resources were helpful in acquiring gear. Even if they left the Pixie Kingdom, there was no way to tell when they’ll reach a habitable visit in which a Market Place was available. Therefore, the swiftest alternative was through Hye Nari. Seo Ae-Ri will be accompanying him for assistance in case her organisation were to strike again. “I know how you two operate. I should be the one telling you not to do anything rash.” After bidding farewell to the p
“Sir, we have a problem.” The blindfolded elderly monk raised his head and looked at the half-exposed sky. “You think I can’t see it?” Dong-Hyun was snappish and surprised as he fished out his phone and called for more Transcendents. Unfortunately, it was too late for them to return. “Call all the soldiers! All! This is our chance!” The nervousness turned into excitement as the canopy was being split into Darkness and Light; a violent wind raged and whistled, the sky was dominated by two pure and uncontrollable energies the ignorant soldiers were awed by the frightening sight. Estelle Sigreen, who was still trapped in the relatively small and cubic room, first felt the drastic change in her body. A golden white radiance emanated from her body, piercing through the transparent walls and transforming her into a miniature sun. As she did not expect this, the Genesis Knight was initially surprised. Even with the significant boost in power, she did not dare attempt anything as the s
