Just as Dante had hoped, he fully recovered within a week. Without wasting time, he went to find Lucian.

The moment Lucian laid eyes on Dante’s mana pool, he muttered in astonishment, “Wow.”

It was unlike anything he had ever seen—an unfathomable depth of power that defied all logic.

“This is truly remarkable… What exactly is your awakened ability?” Lucian asked, his curiosity piqued.

In response, Dante raised his hand, and the four elements—fire, water, earth, and air—manifested in his palm, swirling together in a mesmerizing dance.

Lucian let out a scoff, shaking his head in disbelief. “And to think you’ll still advance beyond this… gaining access to even greater abilities.” He clenched his fists slightly, feeling his title as humanity’s strongest become a joke in comparison.

Dante smiled. “According to my mother, I am the original… and Leon will never compare to me. Since even he has now gained access to other elements, it’s only a matter of time before I do as well.” He could alre

    Lucian knew it was dangerous for Dante to face the dungeon alone, so he handed him a talisman that would teleport him outside if his life was in danger.“Just send a bit of mana into the talisman, and you’ll be teleported away,” Lucian explained.“Alright.” Dante accepted the talisman, though he had no intention of using it. He could feel it—he was far stronger than before. This was his chance to push himself harder than ever. He also needed to find a way to balance his sword skills with his elemental abilities.“Just wait for me. I won’t take long,” Dante said with a confident smile as he stepped into the dungeon.The air inside was thick with eerie energy, and the ground trembled with the distant roars of fearsome creatures. Dante took a deep breath, his mind focused entirely on the challenge ahead.With a swift motion, he drew his sword, the blade shimmering with a dark, void-like energy.

    It had been four months since Dante and Lucian began their journey together. In that time, Dante had grown by leaps and bounds, far surpassing even Lucian’s expectations. Every day seemed to bring new revelations, new powers, and new feats.Dante had unlocked the mastery of lightning, metal, currently he is using earth and air to create a forcefield. Using his newly developed forcefield, he could deflect and block almost anything thrown his way. To Lucian, watching his progress was nothing short of awe-inspiring. He never imagined that Dante would rise so quickly."You're using your forcefield to make yourself untouchable during combat," Lucian said, observing Dante as he swiftly defeated an S-rank monster deep within the dungeon. The monster howled in agony, its massive form crashing to the ground with a loud thud."Yes," Dante replied, his voice calm yet thoughtful. "It’s still a far cry from your gravity ability, but I’m getting there." He wiped the sweat from his brow and examined

    "You're looking for my great-granddaughter?" Toma asked as he noticed Dante constantly glancing at the door."Great-grand?" Dante was surprised—Lucian had earlier said the young girl was Toma's granddaughter, not great-granddaughter."Yes. You know, she spoke of you when she came back from the Human Tournament. She also said you always had two women with you." Toma chuckled."You're right, Dante is definitely a playboy," Lucian added, and the two old men couldn't help but laugh at the statement."Vida is a friend. I still haven't made my intentions clear with Aria," Dante pouted before gulping down the tea Toma had offered him."But you don't deny that you'd want both ladies for yourself?" Toma asked, wiggling his eyebrows. Dante couldn't help but notice how different Toma was from the dignified elves he'd always heard about."Let me tell you a secret—she's been talking about you non-stop since she returned from the competition." Toma giggled, instantly catching Dante’s interest. He w

It had not even been five months since the competition, and ever since then, he had been all she could think about. She remembered watching him secretly during the party."Can you let me go now?" she stuttered, believing her heart would explode if she stayed in this position any longer."I don't know. I actually like the way we are," Dante said as he pulled her closer. Her scent, her skin, her innocence—everything about her drew him in.In truth, this wasn't the first time he had felt the urge to make a woman his. He had felt it with Aria too, but Aria was different. He saw her as a strong, independent woman, someone capable of leading and making her own demands. She was a bit shy, but still strong enough to go after what she wanted. The elf princess before him, however, was different. She had so much innocence, so much tenderness, that Dante felt like he was about to corrupt something pu

  • The Demon Lord Wanted An Ordinary Life    Lonely At The Top

    It's undeniably lonely at the top, so lonely that one may wonder why everyone strives to reach it. The Demon Lord sat upon his throne, contemplating when his long and solitary life might come to an end. He hadn't been born into this position; once, he was the lowliest of his kind. Born as a low-born demon, he had fought his way to the throne, a dream shared by demons from high-born to low-born. In this realm, only the strongest could attain the pinnacle and command fear from others. Since everyone coveted the top spot, few managed to hold it for long—until he became the strongest. His strength was unparalleled, unchallenged by any other."My lord," the only human residing in the demon realm responded to the Demon Lord's summons."Lucian," the Demon Lord sighed."You summoned me," Lucian replied. Kidnapped by demons during a foray into the human realm, Lucian had been spared by the Demon Lord, who brought him to his palace. Over the decades, Lucian had regaled the Demon Lord with tales

  • The Demon Lord Wanted An Ordinary Life    Pinnacle Of Sword

    The demon lord engaged the hordes in combat. Demons had a lot of magic, but due to the nature of their realm, they mostly used fire magic. Many of them employed fire magic to fight against the demon lord, who relied solely on his sword. The demon lord didn't cower; he kept cutting down their fire and any demon that blocked his way. The swing of his sword was so powerful that it would cut several demons in half. This continued as he fought his way through. The leader of the attack noticed that they might not succeed if it continued like this. While looking for an opening, he noticed how the demon lord was trying to protect the human."Attack the human," he ordered, and they all concentrated their attack on the human. The demon lord knew this would happen, but he was prepared to do anything to protect the human. He used his body to shield Lucian from the fireballs shot at him. For the first time in his life, Lucian rooted for the demon lord. It became harder to protect Lucian from the m

    It has been more than a century since Lucian returned from the demon realm and told them about the peace. Just as he said, no demon had appeared for over a century. When Lucian stepped out from the gate, awakeners were already waiting for the demons that would come out from the gate. Everyone was surprised to see a human walk out of the gate. Whenever the portal is used in the demon realm, it creates a tear in the human realm from which they walk out. The arrival of Lucian shook the human realm. When he told them of the peace, everyone started seeing him as the hero who brought the peace. Lucian didn't tell them about the demon lord; he just told them he had destroyed the portal before stepping in. Even after he died, they still called him the hero of the world.With the peace that humans got, they used the time to develop their weapons. They went ahead to make alliances with the elves and even had the elves live among them to teach them some elf magic. They also went into an alliance

    Levi was surprised to know that 626 was pregnant. He never knew the children he once kidnapped from the orphanage and streets had grown to the extent of testing the forbidden fruit."Who is the father?" He asked, but got no reply. "Would you prefer their heads to explode?" He asked as he touched the device hanging on his necklace. 626 noticed the action, which gave her the answer to one of their biggest questions. They had always wondered how Levi was able to make their heads explode. So she had just realized it was the device he attached to his necklace."707," she lied and called the one Levi killed earlier today."Well, it doesn't matter. Maybe this child will be the key to everything." Levi's eyes glistened.From then onwards, Dr. Levi started taking care of 626. He never allowed her to have any encounter with the others. So, even though 626 had discovered the device that makes their heads explode, there was no way to tell others. Also, her health kept deteriorating. Days turned t

  • Dante's Origin

    Mrs. Joan told Lucian everything about Dante's birth and the reason she had been giving him the medicine. She even revealed Mr. Tilo's involvement and how Leon's powers came from the experiment. Lucian was stunned by the revelations, but one question lingered in his mind. If the medicine had been blocking Dante's mana and abilities all this time, then what was the source of his recent power?Even Mrs. Joan had no answer to that."You see, if Dante stops taking the medicine and taps into his true potential, I'm afraid even I would lose my title as humanity’s strongest."Lucian believes that Dante will surpass him. He was already convinced Dante was an S-rank, but just how powerful could he become once his true abilities awakened? "So, it's time to stop the medicine and let the dragon fly.""Yes. But promise me you’ll tell him everything when the time is right. He doesn’t need to avenge his parents. Knowing about them is already enough." Mrs. Joan’s voice trembled as she spoke. Sh

    Dante stepped outside to join his friends. Along with Adam and Gavin, he ventured into the forest to hunt for an animal they could use for the party.He could have done it in an instant, but he didn’t want to take the fun away from his friends, so they did it the old-fashioned way."So, have you gotten a girlfriend?" Adam asked."Not really," Dante replied, though he smiled as he thought of Aria."What about Vida? Has anything changed between you two?" Gavin asked."What do you mean by that?" Dante looked confused, not understanding what his friends were implying.Adam and Gavin exchanged glances, feeling pity for Vida. Even now, Dante remained oblivious to her feelings.As their hunt continued, Dante suddenly heard footsteps. His acute hearing as a swordsman allowed him to detect people marching toward the village, even from within the forest."We have to head back," Dante said, and his friends immediately followed him.Though he was confident that Lucian could handle any trouble, th

    Just as Lucian had said, Dante found himself escorting the headmaster back to his small village.Vida and Aria had returned to Aqua Veil Academy with Seraphina, though not before happily exchanging contact information with Dante."It's hard to believe that such a small village has produced such prodigies," Lucian mused, referring to both Dante and Vida.Dante, however, had something else on his mind. "Headmaster, what exactly do you want to ask my mother?" It was a question that had been nagging at him for a long time."Nothing that should concern you too much," Lucian replied with a faint smile.Dante's gaze darkened slightly. "I respect you, sir, but believe me when I say I will throw that respect away if you do anything to harm my mother. I know you wouldn't stoop so low, but I feel the need to make it clear."Lucian met Dante’s gaze, and for a few moments, they simply stared at each other. As the headmaster held Dante’s eyes, he felt something ancient stir within the boy—a presenc
