In the royal palace, in a secret underground hall.

The underground hall’s layout was just like a courtroom, with the head seat for the judge, the defendant’s table for a lawyer to present his client’s case, and the row of chairs at the back occupied by the spectators.

At the head seat sat a middle-aged man. He had gray hair, reserved but sharp eyes, and a calm temperament.

His head was lowered like he was uninterested in this gathering, but everyone in the hall could feel his cold but cool gaze resting on them, making them all continue feeling on their toes.

The hall was just partially filled, and from the attire worn by most of the people, it could easily be discerned that they were of significant status in the palace.

Right now, at the defendant’s table stood a middle-aged woman. And beside the gray-haired man who sat on the head seat stood a white-haired middle-aged man. The white sharp sword hanging from his waist indicated his identity.

    Waves hit the body of the huge wooden ship as it cruised through the waters at a not too fast and not too slow pace, its streamlined bow divided the raging waters apart to let its enormous body move more smoothly.Captain Inu’s ship was filled to the brim with passengers before leaving, this was partly due to his reputation and the sturdiness of his ship.In this era, though the outside space beyond the Beiger planet already developed to great unimaginable heights technologically, magically, and mystically, Beiger planet was still just a surface planet with little development.In Morales’s previous life, Beiger planet was modeled after earth, and after transmigrating here it was still the same.Most of the best enchanted and technological weapons and artifacts on the planet were those gotten from outside, the technological gadgets created in Beiger were still within the range of normal human reasoning.So also, where ships, most ships i

    Honk!! A sound chimed loudly in the sea, spreading the soundwaves through the atmosphere as smoke chugged out of the ship’s pipes. As this happened, the ship finally came to a stop at a sea harbor. As soon as it finally became motionless, activities exploded inside as the lots of seafaring passengers finally started coming down. This was Middle-Ray harbor, it was the only big harbor in this region that was convenient enough to accommodate large ships. In a few minutes, most of all the passengers in the ship alighted and new passengers started brawling their way forward to fight for the limited tickets, though they still haggled hard to lower the price. Wrapping himself up with the cloak that he stole again, Morales came down from the ship with his maid Bella. Udrez already obeyed his instructions and flew out before the ship stopped. The island accommodating this harbor was the biggest in this region but this was not Morales’s territor

    Inside the one-storied building sat a young man. His hair, clothes, and shoes were messy and rugged, he had a buff body filled with strength with a crazy look on his face, and a scar injury caused by a sword.He was currently seated on a throne-like chair in the living room, 2 scantily dressed girls sat on his laps and his 2 rough hands were currently groping towards the unsafe territory.Perhaps, feeling irritated all of a sudden, he abruptly squeezed hard, causing the 2 girls to yelp in pain but they quickly covered their mouths to muffle the sound.Behind the throne-like chair stood 4 guards, their faces were stony as they pretended not to see the uncomfortable scene before them.As this continued, the thudding sounds of steps running across the wooden stairs suddenly started reverberating. In a few seconds, the thudding sounds faded away before being followed by 2 knocks.Knock! Knock!The scar-faced young man’s expression warped i

    Inside the large but relatively rough and dirty sitting room, Bella sat on one of the better chairs while repeatedly fidgeting uncomfortably. She kept on stealing glances at Morales. What happened a few minutes ago still seemed like a dream to her, she never expected the small, timid, and cheerful Morales that she knew to suddenly evolve into a cold murderer that could kill without blinking an eye. The scene of the young master unsheathing and sheathing his sword kept on flashing on her head, and the scene of the local warlord’s body dropping lifelessly kept on ringing bells on her head. “This is unbelievable”. Her brain just kept yelling this. The more she thought of it, the more she felt like crying. She believed that it was probably because of the traumatic experiences that plagued Morales outside the palace that bred the new him. “I didn’t protect him enough”. She felt like sobbing. “What of her majesty, what would she think?” The

    As Morales walked out with the 3 supers trailing behind him, his thoughts quickly got embroiled by other things. From the looks that the supers gave him, he knew that they were trying to tell him something but they held back due to fear. He didn’t even need to guess it, because of his confident claim he knew that they were trying to emphasize the dangers of the sea to him. Compared to them, he knew far more about the horrors of the Larpotian sea so he didn’t need their reminder. He was just confident in himself and his knowledge, that was why he moved forward without hesitating. For his recruitment notice, he left the complicated math on the amount of remuneration to give to the workers to Bella. He could do it, but why do it when he had such a capable assistant? After setting his rules and revealing his goals to his new subordinates, he also introduced Bella to them and emphasized that she had the highest authority just below him on the whole island.

    As soon as Morales sat cross-legged in preparation for his breakthrough, Udrez flew through the window directly inside his new room. The Wyvern’s scarlet eyes watched its master attentively. Feeling the stare, Morales opened his eyes and turned to look at his pet. “Make sure that no one comes in here to disturb me”. “Yes, master”. Udrez nodded, its Wyvernic face still solemn and fearsome. After getting a little familiar with words, now it could communicate with its master more efficiently through its soul connection. After giving his pet instructions, Morales took a deep breath before ordering his system to show him his current attributes. ------------------------------------- Current attributes STR 151, DEX 53, END 73, INT 36, CHA 29 Free attribute points: 13 --------------------------------- Seeing this, he felt a little excited as he was about to experience another leap in strength since his t

    Despite feeling the urge to strangle the system for putting him in such a choosing conundrum, Morales was able to force himself to stay calm as he carefully thought over all his skills.

The clips were viral all across the planet after all the undead creatures that were terrorizing the biggest armies of the planets disappeared at the same time. The heroic battle of the new King could never be forgotten. Though the Pyramid was locked from the outside world when Morales was engaged in his epoch-changing battle against the Medusa and the mummified monster, there were countless experts who could recreate the scene. By recreating the scene, not only did the surviving humans know who rescued them, they saw it in the most impressive fashion possible. Once all the undead creatures disappeared like they were mere illusions, a much sought-after peace finally came unto Beiger planet. The next day after the final battle, the Vice Pirate Admiral who was once an outcast became a legen

    CHAPTER 233: THE FINAL BATTLE!

    Only 13% of the human population was left on Beiger planet, this was why the Suicide Squad was tasked to achieve the impossible since the impossible was the only achievement that could turn the tides of this war. Donning a special Pugilist armor that was made to fit his physique, and to enhance his Pugilist energy and endurance in battle, Morales was more than ready to take on this impossible mission. As one of the 3 Grade C- experts of this Suicide Squad, he had 1/3rd overall authority over any decision-making of the squad. As soon as they went deep inside the pyramid enough, and the number of zombies and other undead creatures swarming towards them started becoming too much, Morales gave a suggestion. “Let’s separate!” Morales could boast of being the warrior with the most knowledge about this Pyramid. Putting aside its deliberate model after earth’s pyramid of Giza, this was a battlefield where he had farmed for experience points like a man

The Pharoah’s declaration of conquer was what flipped the delicate balance, Beiger planet was plunged into a world war after years of fairly stable development. As soon as Pharoah Khufu declared conquer, it was like an authoritative galaxy-wide order was given. All the undead beasts who answered to this ancient Pharoah listened and acted when he spoke. The pyramid opened up into individual triangular shuttles after the order, these shuttles turned into superspeed ferries to transport an endless army of undead creatures to all corners of Beiger planet. Beiger planet faced its greatest test of destruction yet. Faced against this predator of planets, Beiger planet faced a challenge where they had to rally their full strength just to present the most basic resistance. Faced against a common enemy that could annihilate all life from the planet, all political inclinations w

Through careful baiting and meticulously patient guidance over the years, I was able to remote control your important decisions till I led you all here”. “Hehehe!” “It feels so good to see enemies fooling themselves, so damn good!” “I didn’t just bring you here to enjoy yourselves though.

    Warp! The advanced airship succeeded in infiltrating inside the Necromancy domain that the Necromancy alliance was famed for without triggering any alarms. This was a sign of a good omen towards the overall mission. None of the warriors that were recruited into the vanguard team cheered though, this was because they knew that this was just the calm before the storm. This act that they just started was an act of war! Inside the necromancy domain was like a dark endless void filled with chaotic space that kept on ravaging through anything that they could devour. It was now night, but the effects of the night here were amplified several folds. The extreme darkness, gloominess, and absolute silence gave this region the spookiest attribute that it could afford. This strange vacant void seemed spooky, but not to the warriors that came for this mission who were all battle-hardened veterans. None of them were flustered, they kn

    CHAPTER 229: THE ULTIMATE HUNT [1]!

    As soon as Morales settled down, he swept his gaze through the enormous hall building and saw that a lot of people were already gathered here. Even as he came, others were also coming. The hunting alliance already put everything in order before convening this gathering. From the most important warrior to the least important, even the mysterious Elder Lorrain of the Clifford family were all present. Like before, Pirate Admiral Frenzy was the one who stood up to speak. He was seated alongside his fellow counterparts at the very front of the hall. Morales eyed these seats. With his current status as a Grade C- expert, if he revealed his real strength, he could easily become one of the higher-ups of this alliance. Despite the fame and prestige that may follow, Morales was okay with being prudent. He already had his own plans in place for this mission. To others, it was just about killing the necromancers and getting rid of a disast

Getting to this strength level so rapidly would have affected new timers, but he was an old-timer.In his previous world, as an avid Space World gamer, he was among the first patch of players to level up to the Grade A Calamity realm.With such an achievement, leveling to the Grade C- realm seemed inconsequential though he would be beaten to death if any of the other Grade C- experts currently in Beiger planet heard him say that.In his luxurious room that was built inside his new mansion in Morales Island, Morales sat as a lot of things went through his mind.Tomorrow was the D-Day for the hunt mission to get the head of the notorious Gorge Dame to commence. But before going on this mission, Morales decided to make a trip alongside Bella.Once he informed Bella, she did not refuse, and

    After the secret gathering that was convened in a secret virtual domain, Morales took his time communicating with the Pirate Admiral.Pirate Admiral Frenzy no longer hid anything from him.As he said, they discovered the fatal plan of the necromancers 2 years ago. Since then, they went into work on gathering manpower and trying to infiltrate the Necromancer’s Den to gather information.When the gathering started, it comprised only Pirate Admiral Frenzy and Pirate Admiral Rage. These 2 were the progenitors of the gathering, and they were responsible for the rapid growth of the gathering in the past 2 years.Compared to when it started, the gathering was now countless times more powerful. They looked invisible, but not so invisible against the Necromancer’s Den.The Necromancer’s Den already changed a lot, Gorge Dame was no longer the sole leader.

    “Who is this?” Morales was confused at first on seeing his ringing communication device, but as soon as he picked up the call, his confusion cleared and was quickly replaced by surprise and speculations. “Morales, right?” On hearing the dignified voice that reverberated from the other side of the virtual projection screen, Morales snapped out of his daze. “Esteemed Pirate Admiral!” Morales quickly expressed his respect by standing up. Being contacted so suddenly by the well-known Frenzy Psychic, Morales experienced a rapid rush of emotions. It did not take him long before he connected this call to the achievements of his fleet in the just-concluded campaign. Though he really wanted to know the reason why this Pirate Admiral called, he did not dare keep him waiting. He put on the most polite smile that he could before asking the universal question. “To what honor am I receiving this unexpected call?” On hearing t
