Sword Master In The Strange World Chapter 55: Guess what I am!
Karl struggled to contain his fear and worry as he wiped away the tears on his face. Jonas was right; showing weakness now meant choosing death. And this was not just his own death; it meant the death of everyone in the village. The longer he stayed here, the more difficult Jonas’s task would become, and the more danger the villagers would be in.Karl removed his untied shoes and tossed them aside, not caring about any sense of decorum anymore. He knocked on the doors of each house, rapping loudly and shouting if no one answered. People started trickling out, one by one, in response to his efforts. Some believed, while others were skeptical, but standing on the precipice of life and death, they had no choice but to listen.“Really, truly Liliana, isn’t this some kind of joke?” Many people looked at Karl with bewildered expressions. This situation seemed more absurd than fish climbing trees!“She’s no longer the Liliana we knew. She never was!” Karl replied urgently. If he didn’t expla

Jonas’s back was hurting, and he couldn’t stop Liliana. It wasn’t until she had left the cemetery that Jonas regained his composure and chased after her.On the other side, Karl was helping the townspeople evacuate. Each person left their homes and headed toward the hospital.“Hurry, there’s not much time left!” Karl shouted loudly, looking back at the long line of people following him.Inside Karl’s heart, there was a burning urgency. Even though he and everyone else had tried to move as quickly as possible, he knew that the hundred seconds mentioned by Liliana had passed. Liliana had n’t eaten them because Jonas was still holding her back. Karl worried about Jonas on one hand and did his best to help people move on the other. The only thing he could do now was this – if they didn’t move fast enough, they would become Liliana’s fat prey, and all their efforts would be in vain.“Oh Lord, please protect our village and Jonas,” Karl silently prayed while continuing to move forward. In l
Sword Master In The Strange World Chapter 57: Every time you ruin my plans!
Liliana, upon seeing Jonas appear, couldn’t help but sneer. She still didn’t believe he could protect everyone. The conscience he mentioned was, in her opinion, the most useless thing in the world.“Well, well, you’re worried about your own life. You’re so caught up in your thoughts!” Liliana spoke with a hint of disdain, her expression not quite a smile, but more like a strong, challenging someone weaker.Jonas didn’t want to argue with her; he stood in front of Karl and older adults couple, though he couldn’t see, he could feel the closeness of Liliana. She was close enough that he could hear her breathing.“Run, the faster, the better!” Jonas said to Karl from behind. He wasn’t sure how long he could hold Liliana at bay, so he wanted to make the most of the time they had.The overwhelming fear Jonas had felt earlier made Karl unable to move. It wasn’t until Jonas turned back to speak to him he finally snapped to attention. Liliana was terrifying, far more frightening than when they
Sword Master In The Strange World Chapter 58: Sister!
Liliana’s nails dug deeper into Jonas’s flesh, fresh blood flowing incessantly. On Liliana’s pale hand, more and more of Jonas’s blood stuck to it. The contrast of red blood on a white background, along with her crimson attire, created a horrifying sight.Liliana leaned back, laughing maniacally, her grip growing stronger.“How does it feel to experience the consequences of having those bright eyes, huh?” Liliana mocked. She had tried to persuade Jonas to join her side several times, and he had consistently refused. She even offered her bright eyes for him in exchange, but he didn’t accept. All because of his unwavering sense of morality. It was hardly worth it.Jonas’s face turned red, and his circulation grew increasingly difficult. He struggled to breathe but failed. Liliana was too strong, and her five claw-like nails were embedded too deeply.“What? Uncomfortable now? Can’t breathe, can you? Jonas, I told you if you had those bright eyes, I wouldn’t fight back. But what can you d
Sword Master In The Strange World Chapter 59: I accept my death! Please spare the villagers
Daisy’s cries grew louder day by day, her voice hoarse and choked to where she could hardly speak. Just looking at the unrecognizable figure before her, Daisy was in constant agony. Her heart felt like it was being squeezed, making it seem like she could hardly breathe. Daisy’s eyes were also red from crying, and she kept shaking her head as she looked at Liliana. From childhood to adulthood, she had always been fragile, but she had never felt such pain before. If there were a higher power listening to her, Daisy only wished for Liliana to return to normal, even if it meant giving up her own life. Daisy would accept it.“Sister, please, come back as the Liliana you used to be, please!” Daisy sobbed, her voice gradually becoming hard to hear, drowned out by her choking sobs.Upon hearing this, Liliana burst into laughter. She clutched her stomach and laughed heartily, looking at Daisy with a mocking gaze. Did she want Liliana to go back to being normal? Don’t even dream of it! Daisy di
Sword Master In The Strange World Chapter 60: Liliana was infuriated to hear this.
“That’s not it, not what you think, sis. You’ve misunderstood our parents,” Daisy continuously shook her head, her gaze never leaving Liliana. Bitterness, pain, and desperation were the emotions that dominated Daisy at this moment.“Misunderstood? You say I’ve misunderstood what, exactly? The old burn scar is still there, and there are many needle marks all over my body. Do you want to see them?” Liliana said as she rolled up her sleeves, revealing a large scar on her wrist, surrounded by needle marks.“From childhood till now, I’ve never been sick. Where did all these come from? Isn’t it because of you? Have you ever felt the pain of being sick, or is it just a breeze to you? Daisy, how can you imagine what it’s been like for me over these years? The agony, the constant fear. Do you know why I didn’t want you to cry or be in pain? Because, in such moments, I’m the one who has to bear all the negativity! Do you know how much I’ve suffered in fear?” Liliana spoke, reminiscing her child
Sword Master In The Strange World Chapter 61: Liliana, even if you kill me today, I won’t resist!
Liliana quickly buried her face in the snow. She didn’t want her parents to see her grotesque appearance. Deep down, she was still a deprived child, craving love and affection. She had a heart, and she still wanted to be loved, to receive her parents’ affection. She was afraid that her horrifying appearance would horrify her parents. Since she was adopted, she had always played the role of a perfect, diligent, and kind child in front of her parents. She excelled in her studies, was obedient, diligent, compassionate, and graduated as an outstanding doctor and veterinarian. The façade she had created for her parents was perfect. She didn’t want her parents to see her in a red dress, with pale, white skin like this! She really didn’t want to!So, Liliana completely buried her face in the cold snow, enduring the freezing temperatures. It was worth it, as long as it made the Duke and Duchess Armstrong satisfied.The Duke and Duchess Armstrong hurried over, passing by Liliana as they ran to
Sword Master In The Strange World Chapter 62: The one in the water that day was truly you!
The scene horrified everyone present before them. They couldn’t believe their eyes as Liliana was shedding her skin right in front of them. She appeared far more terrifying than their wildest imaginations.“Oh my God, what kind of creature is she?” Etham stared at Liliana in shock. He had gone from one surprise to another today, starting with Liliana’s true identity, the revelation that the Armstrong family had used her as a puppet to endure pain for Daisy, and now witnessing this skin-shedding transformation. If he had been a coward, he might have passed out. The sight was truly horrific.Daisy was equally horrified. She couldn’t believe her sister had transformed into this. Now Daisy finally understood why Liliana had said that there was no turning back. Everything had gone too far, and neither Daisy nor Liliana could return to their previous lives.Jonas stood by, his eyes unseeing, but he could clearly sense what was happening around him. A moment ago, what he had been holding und

Chapter 135: The end!
Facing Evan and Brendan’s questions, Jonas remained silent saying nothing. He had a strange feeling; normally, whenever Alice appeared, only he could see her. But this time was different; Alice appeared open in front of everyone. This made Jonas suspicious, finally thinking that Alice had some malicious intentions.“Jonas, our system has an issue. Do you want to reset everything?” Without waiting for Jonas to respond, Alice went straight to the point, a smile still on her lips.“System issues? Is there really a problem with the system, or is this some damn scenario of yours?”“The system is indeed having problems. You should reset everything!” Alice repeated her words.Jonas had run out of patience by now. He directly exposed Alice’s true face and what she called the system.“There’s nothing wrong here! Everything is your play. Why did door open earlier? Don’t tell me it opened coincidentally, with no arrangement! Everything, all of it, is your script!” When this door suddenly opened,

“It’s... it’s Cuktor!” Etham pointed towards Cuktor, the one who had just dealt a blow to Charlette. All present there looked at Cuktor with wide eyes. His unexpected appearance, standing alongside Jonas and his group, was a shock to them. None of them had ever dreamed of a day when Cuktor and Jonas’ team would stand together on the same battlefield.“No need to look at me with such wide eyes. I’m not here to protect you all. I’m here just to protect my chance to return to my paradise!” Cuktor turned towards Jonas’ group and spoke. The reason he took the risk to come here was singular – to protect Jonas’s eyes. Lucia’s eyes had been elusive for nearly a thousand years; he had even turned Christina’s parents’ house upside down, finding no clues. Now, if Jonas’s eyes fell into Charlette’s hands, any chance of returning to his paradise would be utterly lost.On Charlette’s side, she was shocked that she had been ambushed, and the ambusher was none other than Cuktor, the one who considere

Etham, Evan, Christina, and Mei landed on the ground in a heap. Before them lay an incredibly unfamiliar space.“Darn! Where on earth is this?” Etham said, brushing off the dust on his clothes. Just a second ago, they were still in Christina’s house, and now they found themselves in this strange place.Evan glanced around, shaking his head. This was also his first time in this location. Evan had never heard his grandfather mention this place before.“But don’t you guys think this place is incredibly luxurious?” The one speaking was Christina. Having lived in a luxurious mansion her whole life, there was hardly anything in the world she hadn’t seen. But a place this extravagant was a first for Christina.“Exactly! Look, everything is gold-plated, especially the door frame, which is grand and dazzling! Not to mention crystal, gems, and precious stones. Just counting the cost of craftsmanship and design alone is already an enormous figure! These things are all exquisitely designed,” Evan

“There was one time I saw it in my parents’ room! A painting exactly like this scenery!” Mei exclaimed, surprised. She was sure she had seen it before, in her parents’ study! A painting identical to the forest in front of them.“Mei, are you sure?” Christina leaned down to ask Mei, her eyes filled with both hope and a hint of doubt.“I’m sure.”As soon as Mei said that, three pairs of eyes turned towards each other. Evan, Etham, and Christina - they could be the only hope and opportunity for these three.“Let’s go!”Evan was the first to change direction and run towards Christina’s house. Etham, Christina, and Mei pursued suit. They sprinted with all their might. Christina’s house was where Lucia’s eyes were kept, guarded by Christina’s parents. They were secretive, profound, and held many secrets. What they knew about this forest and its related stories seemed to be certain. For Evan’s group, only by unraveling the secrets of the forest could they find Jonas and Brendan. Time was run

The empty wooden bedspread, Brendan, had disappeared for a while now. Outside, the wind grew stronger with each passing moment, blowing the curtain straight into the empty room.“Brendan is missing!” Evan shouted loudly. In his heart, there was a great deal of anxiety; he didn’t know what was happening and couldn’t guess which force had taken Brendan away. Now they were stuck between Cuktor and the force behind that green-eyed bird. One wrong step could ruin the entire chessboard.“What’s going on? What’s happening?” Etham, one hand covering a yawn, the other hastily putting on a coat, rushed out of his room. He had been sleeping soundly when he heard Evan’s voice. Though he didn’t know what was happening, he came running.Behind Etham were Christina and Mei. Unlike Etham, the two siblings seemed much more alert.“Evan, what’s going on? Why did you say Brendan is missing?” Christina looked at Evan skeptically, clasping her younger sister’s hand.Evan was also quite distressed now; Bre

Chapter 130: Etham, something’s wrong with Jonas!
“I’m sorry, I... I... I was just scared of you!” Brendan trembled incessantly. In reality, he had intended to lie like the others, saying that Charlette was good and beautiful just to get through the situation. However, Brendan couldn’t bring himself to do it. He didn’t come here willingly, nor did he willingly eat those foods. He did all those things out of fear. Furthermore, looking at Jonas gave Brendan the motivation to speak the truth. The girl who claimed to be the queen brought him here for one reason only – to force Jonas to give her his eyes. Since then, she had been providing reasons to persuade Jonas. If Brendan now lied, saying Charlette was a good person, the probability of fooling Jonas would be higher. Brendan knew that Jonas trusted those around him, and the words of those subordinates might not be believed, but Brendan’s words sometimes could sway Jonas. Perhaps that was why Charlette asked Brendan if she was a good person. She only wanted to prove to Jonas that givin

Chapter 129:
Jonas contemplated Charlette. He knew this was the highest price Charlette could offer for this deal. Charlette was not wrong; if he agreed to her request, both he and she would benefit, with him gaining the most. Unfortunately, Jonas had no intention of making this deal with Charlette from the start. The world was not only filled with beautiful landscapes and vibrant colors but also with dark and sordid corners. If he handed over his eyes to Charlette, those dark corners would likely expand. Jonas lived not only for himself but also for others in this world, especially for those he loved. Evan, Etham, Brendan—surely they didn't need protection from the likes of Charlette. Protection traded for the lives and peace of others. He knew that even Selena and Karl at the Nine Springs did not want him to do such a thing."Charlette, I apologize, but I decline this deal."Charlette, who was brimming with confidence just moments ago, jumped in anger. She couldn't believe Jonas would make such

Chapter 128: Jonas, everything is very beautiful, isn't it? Isn't it much better than the darkness?
Upon hearing this, Charlette's face turned reddish-purple, and she felt infuriated. She did everything for this world, yet Jonas dared to label her as the villain. She was the queen, the mistress here, and every action she took was for the sake of people as naive as Jonas."Damn it! I am the queen. I treat everyone kindly and generously!" Charlette yelled at Jonas. From the largest to the smallest, Charlette had not encountered anyone as ignorant as Jonas. Clearly, she had welcomed such a wretch with open arms, and he had the audacity to doubt that Charlette was evil. Even his friend Brendan had been warmly received by her. One could question what delicacies Brendan had enjoyed since arriving!"In the end, can't maintain that calm and gentle demeanor?" Jonas teased as he turned his head towards Charlette. He knew Charlette had been dissatisfied with him for a long time. From the beginning until now, she had always been clawing at him to keep herself calm. It seemed that Charlette's na

Chapter 127: Evil or good?
"Why, feeling shaken, aren't you?" Charlette spoke with a smile, knowing that Jonas would be moved by this condition."What do you want, in the end?""It's simple, Jonas. I want to make a trade with you. You see, you have something I need, and coincidentally, I have something you need."Jonas could vaguely guess what Charlette was referring to. He just couldn't comprehend why, if she wanted it, she didn't just take it directly. Clearly, she had plenty of opportunities to do so. Maybe even now, even if Charlette wanted to take it, he couldn't resist.Charlette approached Jonas, and her small hand extended to delicately touch his face. She traced her fingers up to his eye, seeming to examine it closely."These eyes are truly beautiful. If they fully fulfill their inherent purpose, they will be even more stunning." Charlette spoke with a sinister smile. What she wanted was indeed his eyes, just like Cuktor. Initially, she didn't want to involve herself with Cuktor's influence, but now th
