Meanwhile, on the third floor.

Elara was startled upon hearing the loud explosions outside. Not just one, but the subsequent blasts became increasingly intense.

If Elara were an ordinary girl, she would probably be very frightened right now, choosing to take cover or call for help. The explosions would certainly make her think about fleeing immediately. However, after mastering her hidden inner strength, Elara was a very different girl now.

"The driver was right!" Elara exclaimed, clenching her fists while looking at the front yard below where the gunfight had begun. "These people seem determined not to stop until they capture or even kill me!"

Elara had no trouble identifying the attackers. Seeing their costumes, the girl knew they were the same group that attacked her and her family yesterday. "You all have gone too far! Dare to come to my house, you'll face the consequences!"

Seeing how these attackers were so eager to capture her and how they had destroyed her home, Elara suddenly

    "They think they've defeated us just because of that girl! Let them think that! They don't know the war has just begun!"Nina glanced at her uncle for a moment, noticing the calm on his face. She knew the old man's character very well. If his expression was so serene, he must have had a well-laid plan."Alright, I'll leave the girl to you!" After saying that, Nina disappeared from where she stood. In less than a second, she appeared at one side of the garden, not far from where Alexander and his men were."Stupid little cockroaches, who do you think you are to dare mess with me!" Nina pointed her gun at Alexander's men. "Die, all of you!"Bang!Bang!Nina's hand movements were so fast, it was as if she wasn't holding a weapon. Moreover, she aimed her shots precisely at the heads of her targets. Thus, with a single shot, these people died instantly.Bang!Bang!In just one minute, more than thirty people died from headshots. With such ability, there was no doubt that Nina was a cultiva

    Nina took an M16 rifle from a masked man, ensuring the weapon was fully loaded. As Alexander had feared, this woman intended to shoot the women and children one by one. However, before shooting, Nina approached Orio, who continued to watch Elara, who was glaring at the old man with red eyes full of anger."Uncle, can't I shoot Alexander after shooting them?" Nina harbored a deep grudge against the businessman, and only Alexander's death could satisfy it."No! Don't do that!" Orio warned firmly. He then looked at Elara, still lying on the ground, unable to move."This girl may not be able to move now, but I’m sure she will find a way to break free from my technique! Don’t do anything to Alexander. He is our key to controlling this girl!"Reluctantly, Nina nodded. "Alright, if that's what we must do."She might not be able to exact her revenge and anger on Alexander directly, but watching the businessman suffer from losing his family members one by one would at least give her some satis

    David never expected that today, which was supposed to be the most historic day of his life with his engagement to Elara, would turn into the most horrifying day. Not only was his engagement canceled, but his family members were also executed right before his eyes. What made him even angrier was that he didn't see the young man he hated so much there.Yes, David did not see Darrin among the group of people being executed. "Where is that bastard? Where is he?" he thought. Darrin should have been executed as Alexander's bodyguards had taken him to the backyard along with the women and children earlier.Because David did not see Darrin there, he became even more convinced that the young man was an accomplice of these attackers. "Unbelievable! Truly unbelievable! That bastard has deceived me and everyone else! I should have been more convincing to Mr. Hayes that the young man was a traitor!"David thought that Darrin was a young man who couldn't accept his engagement to Elara. "I should h

    There was one thing David didn't know but was now acknowledged by the Hayes and Perry families: Darrin had indeed come to save them.While Alexander led his guards to the front, Darrin used illusion techniques to manipulate them. Those who thought they were heading to the front were actually taken to the backyard. Additionally, Darrin used the same illusion techniques to deceive the masked men when they stormed in to drag the women and children away.Ultimately, after witnessing Darrin's abilities, Alexander and all his guards, who had initially stubbornly wanted to fight the Romano family and their forces, realized they were no match for this mafia family, especially after seeing how formidable Nina was."If that young man hadn't taken us to the backyard earlier, my men and I would be corpses by now!" Alexander muttered, watching Nina swiftly and brutally shoot her opponents.Darrin managed to convince Alexander and everyone else to escape through the backyard so they could reach the

    Alexander had completely changed his mind. Just like Elara, the young man he now chose was Darrin, not David. Even so, he couldn't simply cancel Elara's engagement to David. "I will wait for the right time," he thought. "After that, I will discuss this with Denis."On the other hand, Darrin, who didn't understand why the businessman had given him a ring, had only one thought in his mind. Alexander and all the bodyguards needed to leave this place immediately. "Mr. Hayes, it seems you need to go right now. I'm worried Elara can't hold out much longer!"Darrin used his enhanced senses technique to see what was happening in the front yard. He saw Elara facing an old man and losing. Darrin had to get there to help her immediately.Alexander nodded. Patting Darrin's shoulder a few times, he said, "Go! Don't let them hurt my daughter!""Of course, Mr. Hayes!" replied Darrin. As soon as Alexander and everyone else had left, he quickly used his inner energy to move with great speed. As soon a

    The electric bolts in Orio’s palms shot forward at an incredible speed, targeting Elara’s body. Much like the fireball she had released, these bolts carried immense power. The current within them was nearly equivalent to the electricity found in a lightning strike.Woosh!Woosh!Woosh!More than ten electric bolts surged toward Elara. However, not a single one managed to hit the girl, despite her only showing calm movements to avoid them.The bolts that missed Elara struck random places around her, demonstrating their terrifying effects. Trees hit by these bolts immediately fell. Meanwhile, when the bolts struck solid objects like walls and concrete, they shattered, emitting smoke.“I won’t stop this technique until one of us dies!” shouted Orio, relentlessly attacking Elara’s body with his electric bolt technique. The old man seemed to be going all out, especially when he saw Nina and all the remaining black-masked men leaving the area around the house.There was nothing left for Ori

    It didn't take long for Darrin to spot a figure shrouded in a thin mist at the former site of the whirlwind ahead. Although he couldn't yet identify who it was, he didn't hesitate to quicken his steps towards it. "Elara," he muttered, hoping it was the girl.As Darrin got closer to the figure, his body jolted. It wasn't Elara but the old man standing with his eyes closed. His long hair, partially white, was disheveled. Not only that, his long robe was torn in several places. Darrin could even see numerous wounds and blood stains all over his body.Orio Romano still managed to stand upright, although his condition was far more wretched than before. The wrinkles on his face were very prominent. His body was also extremely thin. Orio's current state was almost identical to Shen Tao's when Max first met him.Hearing Darrin's footsteps, the old man slowly opened his eyes. He looked exhausted and weak."You..." He muttered as he saw Darrin approaching him. On the other side, Darrin prepared

    “Aaargh!” Darrin screamed in pain. His ring finger was injured and bleeding, but the girl seemed oblivious to it.Earlier, Elara had tried to strangle Darrin without caring about his life. Now, she was pulling the ring from his finger as if she didn't care if it hurt or even broke his finger.“You must return what is not yours!” Elara shouted. Her voice had returned to normal, like a girl's usual voice. But her eyes were still white, indicating that the giant fox spirit was still controlling her body. “Give me back this ring!”“I don’t want it either! I’ll give it back to you right now!” Darrin said. He might have endured the severe torment of Elara's chokehold on his neck, but what she was doing to his finger now was just as painful.Elara ignored Darrin’s words. She continued pulling the ring from his finger, this time even harder.“Elara!” Darrin shouted. “Can you stop for a moment! I’ll give it back to you! I... I didn't ask for it. Your father gave it to me!”Hearing those words,

    Darrin nodded. "I understand, my queen."The way Darrin answered made Helena blush again. She was now confident that she could give the item to him.Once the earring was in his hand, Darrin removed the green gem that was its pendant and attached it to his Moreau necklace.Green and red light emanated from the necklaces, reaching as far as the clouds and piercing them.At that moment, a light appeared from behind the clouds. Moments later, a female figure, adorned in gold from head to toe, smiled at him. Darrin immediately knelt down, for the woman's features indicated that she was the Moon Goddess Fenrisar had described."Since you have completed your first trial, accept this as your reward." The goddess raised the golden staff in her hand, and a golden ray descended to the earth and merged with Darrin's body.The goddess then vanished. But Darrin felt something strange happening to his body.He raised his hand and saw it transform into water, fire, earth, air, and all the elements of

    "Why? Why are you doing this? No!"Splash!Darrin's scream faded as his body fell into the water. But the scream continued to echo in his heart even as his body began to sink to the bottom of the lake."Why did you sacrifice yourself for me? Why didn't you let me do it for you?"Darrin felt completely devastated. Not only because he had failed to protect the princess, but also because he had failed to protect his other loved ones before."Why does everyone close to me have to suffer such a tragic fate? Why can't I protect them?"The regret and grief grew stronger in his heart as his body sank deeper into the lake.At the same time, he felt his chest tighten and it became difficult to breathe. It seemed that Helena's plan to save Darrin would end in failure, as the young man's weakened body made it impossible for him to use any internal energy or technique to help him breathe.Darrin understood this, and it only deepened his regret."If only you had gone into the lake instead, perhaps

    "Greetings to you, Mother!" The Dark Knight could not contain the joy in his heart as he saw the young woman rise from the ground and look in his direction. "I-I know you may not have expected us to rouse you from your slumber. But..."The Dark Knight did not hesitate to reveal his intentions to the young woman who was, after all, his biological mother. "We've been going through a lot of trouble lately, and we need your help."The Dark Knight continued to pour his heart out. Although it had been a long time since he had last spoken to his mother, he was not embarrassed to say anything."Mother, there's one more thing I want to ask you. It's about the position of Prime Minister in the kingdom. Since I'm the one who woke you up, would you be willing to give me that position?"All this time, the Dark Knight had seemed obedient to Theobaldus, or even to his nephew Nicolaus. Yet deep in his heart, he held a grudge against them."But I hope you don't misunderstand. I don't want the title. I

    Chapter 342 - Finding the Vial

    Spurt!At the edge of the lake, Darrin vomited large amounts of water from his mouth after Helena had pumped his chest several times. After that, it was clear that Darrin was gasping for air, as if he had run out of oxygen. But he still couldn't open his eyes."Darrin, wake up!""Wake up, Darrin!"He faintly heard a soft and melodious voice in his ear. At the same time, a gentle hand stroked his cheek.When Darrin finally managed to open his eyes, he saw a beautiful figure sitting right in front of him."Your Highness..."Helena was no longer wearing the leather mask that had sunk to the bottom of the lake. With her hair and clothes still wet, she looked exceptionally beautiful."Thank goodness you're awake!" Helena couldn't hide the happiness on her face as she saw the young man begin to open his eyes. Darrin might not be able to see it, but the feelings in the princess's heart for him had grown much deeper and stronger than before.Earlier, when Helena had seen Nicolaus about to hit

    When Hector left Arcadia, he probably never imagined that his plans would change so quickly. Originally, he intended to take the vial, give it to Darrin and leave. Unexpectedly, he lost Darrin sooner than he expected.And after seeing the cold form of Queen Marielle lying in the coffin, it was as if he could see the end of the world through her. This sight only strengthened his resolve."All right, one more time!" Hector had made up his mind to destroy the vial. No matter what he had to do, no matter how great the sacrifice, he would do it.Catching his breath and releasing his right hand that had been held by his left, Hector tried to rise from his sitting position, preparing for the next attack."Don't even think about trying that again, because I won't just stand by!" Nicolaus pointed his finger at Hector's face from the other end. Apparently, he was not ready to give up so easily either. "I will destroy you, or vice versa!"Both men had suffered severe injuries to their right hand

    The incident threw the top of the tower into chaos. The mages immediately rushed to the stairs and descended hastily. Meanwhile, the soldiers below stood on alert. They did not approach the top of the tower, nor did they dare do so without Nicolaus' orders. But they were ready at a moment's notice."Darrin!" Hector shouted, clenching both fists. He knew how devastating the strike of a cultivator at the peak of the King level could be when unleashed at full power. As he had just witnessed.On the other side, as if Hector's presence meant nothing to him, Nicolaus rose from his kneeling position, clutching the vial in his hand. His face was dark and expressionless. As he moved toward the coffin, he himself opened the grandmother's mouth."Nicolaus, I beg you, at least listen to my explanation!" Hector fought to control his anger, trying to speak to the ruler of Green Island with a cool head. "I don't want to force you to change your mind, but please listen to me."Nicolaus lifted his eye

    Nicolaus asked gently, a smile on his face. His demeanor naturally made Helena feel a little more at ease, allowing her to speak her heart without fear."Yes, Your Majesty. I am very worried that he won't be able to cure them without this medicine. Therefore, I would be very grateful if you could spare a little for him."Helena spoke with bright eyes, as if she was doing something very important for herself. But at that moment, her face suddenly tensed. "Oh no, what did I just say?" she thought to herself. "I made a huge mistake!"And just as she had feared, Nicolaus' face turned red. Extremely red."My God, what will happen now?" As she thought this, Helena could see the change in the king's expression. It was clear that he was suppressing his anger."So it's true what I thought," Nicolaus said in a trembling and frightened tone. "The one in your heart is that bastard, not me! So why did you deceive me with your sweet words?"When Helena accepted Nicolaus' proposal and agreed to marr

    Nicolaus said nothing but lowered his head."Nico, tell me, is this girl the one you're looking for?" Theobaldus shouted, anger and frustration evident in his voice.On the one hand, they had lost the potion, and the position of the full moon in the sky had shifted. Even if they found the potion and revived the queen, it would still be a grave sin for them.On the other hand, he was furious with his nephew for being so blinded by love."You sacrificed the future of the kingdom for a girl? Since when did you become so weak?"His anger made him forget the rule of not speaking ill of anyone in this sacred place."Tell me, are you...""Yes, I am looking for her, uncle. I really am," Nicolaus shouted back.He hated himself for being weak because of his feelings for the girl. But deep in his heart he believed that Helena was really there."I didn't just hear her voice. I could smell her scent. I'm sure it's the same scent I smelled this morning!""What?"Suddenly, Theobaldus jumped. Not bec

    Chapter 337 - The Unexpected Appearance

    The chanting of the mages grew louder as the full moon crept a few degrees from its perfect alignment above the tower. They continued to recite a birthing spell, hoping for the best in the queen's resurrection.After nearly half an hour, the mages suddenly shouted in unison, "Queen Marielle is heaven, and she will bless us forever!"Their chant echoed throughout the island. A second later, Nicolaus, Theobaldus, and all the soldiers guarding the area shouted the same mantra. "Queen Marielle is heaven, and she will always bless us!"When the echo of the voices died down, the moon was directly above the tower, illuminating the face and body of Queen Marielle as she lay in the glass coffin.Nicolaus and Theobaldus rose from their positions on the floor and approached the coffin."Greetings to you, Mother. Queen, ruler of the universe, and grace to the world." As he spoke, Theobaldus kissed the queen on the cheek.At that moment, there was a stark contrast between Queen Marielle and Theoba
