Roar!

The shadow of the dragon surged toward Darrin with incredible speed, seemingly aware of exactly where its target was, as if it had the sharp eyes of a real dragon. Moreover, as the dragon passed, the path it left on the ground formed a trench no less than three meters deep, demonstrating the immense energy it carried.

Facing such a technique, Darrin appeared more cautious this time. Unlike the previous two attacks, he could sense the overwhelming energy in this one. Even so, that didn’t mean he was afraid to take the risk.

When the dragon's head was less than a meter away from him, instead of dodging or punching it, he placed both palms in front of his chest as if to brace for impact. And sure enough, as soon as the dragon's head collided with his hands, a deafening explosion echoed.

Boom!

The collision of two high-level energies produced not only a thunderous explosion but also seemed capable of shaking the earth once again. However, unlike the previous attacks, the giant drago

    “Sister, we need to leave now. We have to get Athena to the palace immediately.” Aphrodite’s worry for their youngest sister was evident.The blood flowing from the youngest girl’s mouth might have lessened, but Aphrodite could feel through her palm that her sister’s heartbeat was growing weaker and weaker. The girl's body was beginning to feel cold, and her face was turning extremely pale.Aphrodite had poured as much of her inner energy as she could, but her sister's condition only grew more concerning.“Sister, we can’t wait any longer! She’s getting worse!” Aphrodite urged her elder sister.“No! We can’t leave!” Venus, although not as panicked as her younger sister, still had clear signs of worry and confusion on her beautiful face. She had channeled a great deal of her inner energy into their youngest sister’s body. Yet instead of improving, it seemed to only worsen her condition.Neither Venus nor Aphrodite had ever dealt with anything like this before. They were among the fines

    Darrin furrowed his brow, not understanding why the blonde girl was saying that. Before he could think, he saw the girl draw two swords slung across her back.Zing!“You might have been lucky enough to survive Athena’s attacks. This time, let’s see if the goddess of fortune is still on your side.” Venus channeled her inner energy into her swords, causing both weapons to glow with a golden yellow light.“Wait!” Darrin quickly raised his hand. “As I said before, I don’t want to prolong the conflict between us. And I truly mean that.”His index finger pointed at Athena, who was still unconscious on the ground. “What if I can heal that girl?”“Don’t spout nonsense!” Venus growled. Her anger seemed to be growing even more. “Do you think I would believe your lowly trick?”The girl tightened her grip on both swords, preparing to strike Darrin. But then...“I’m not talking nonsense.” Ignoring whatever Venus might say next, Darrin moved swiftly, so fast that in just a second, he was already be

    Aphrodite looked at Darrin with increasing impatience. Is that really the condition you're proposing? Of course, we’ll accept it!Without needing to think twice, she knew that this condition was clearly very favorable for the girls. So why should she refuse? Besides, among the three girls, Aphrodite had the gentlest nature, making her more inclined to agree to any terms that would quickly help her youngest sister.However, Aphrodite didn’t immediately voice her thoughts because Venus was there. As long as their eldest sister was with them, she would be the one to make the decision. Aphrodite looked at her older sister, hoping that what she would say to Darrin would align with her own thoughts.Venus observed Darrin for a moment, appearing to be deep in thought. This 23-year-old girl knew that the young man was only one or two years younger than her. Even so, his intelligence seemed to far surpass his age.She understood that with such a condition, Darrin would undoubtedly benefit grea

    Darrin stopped in his tracks. "What more do you want? I've fulfilled my promise, so you'd better not bother me or Lily again!"Although he wasn’t accusing Venus of breaking her promise, it seemed that the young man could sense the possibility, prompting him to immediately remind her of the promise she had to keep.What Darrin felt was also felt by Aphrodite. The girl raised her head toward her eldest sister. "Are you still not going to let him go?""Of course, I will!" As Venus said this, she channeled more inner energy into the two swords that had yet to be sheathed on her back. "But not before teaching this cunning bastard a lesson!""Sister, what do you mean? Didn't we promise him?""Aphrodite, wake up! Open your eyes wide! Athena has never lost before, even when she faced a group of A-Rank cultivators. So why did she lose to that bastard of unknown origin today?"Venus believed that Darrin had deliberately used some trick she wasn't aware of to knock Athena unconscious. After that

    Venus's eyes widened with delight. “Even if your power has reached Rank A, it means nothing against my swords!” And what she thought wasn’t an exaggeration.The two swords in her hands were among the strongest weapons in Arkadia. Legend has it that they once belonged to a great general of the Arkadian kingdom in ancient times, passed down through generations. And now, they were in Venus's hands.Not only were they extremely powerful, but they also possessed potent magical effects. Venus had proven the might of her ancestral swords by cutting down many enemies on the battlefield.If the blonde girl appeared extremely excited, a different expression was seen on the face of her second sister. “Why do I feel that she is taking this fight very seriously?” Aphrodite's thoughts became stronger as she continued to observe Venus's fighting style.Instead of aiming at non-vital parts of Darrin's body, her eldest sister was doing the opposite. In Aphrodite's view, what Venus was doing now was no

    "You..." Venus hissed. "What gives you the nerve to threaten me like that?" From the tone of her voice and the anger etched into her face, it was clear that Darrin's words did nothing to intimidate her."Even if you say something far worse, I will not stop punishing you!" The girl channeled her inner strength to its peak and poured it into the two swords she held in each hand. This caused both weapons to magically appear twice as long as before.Not only that. The flames that erupted from these weapons and the intense heat they radiated became exponentially stronger. It wasn't just for a rank B cultivator. Even Aphrodite, who was standing not far from the battlefield, could feel the incredible heat."Sister..." the second girl murmured. Never in her life had she seen her elder sister unleash her inner power to such an extent. "Your determination and strength are truly remarkable."Venus was not only the strongest of the three girls, her resolve was also the most unyielding. That was w

    Venus raised her eyebrows in astonishment, shocked at what Darrin could do to her sword. "How can he do that?"It wasn't the first time she was surprised by what the young man could do. Earlier, when he had blocked the overheated and powerful sword with his wrist, it had also startled her a bit. "He dared to block my sword with his wrist?"There were two reasons for her surprise. First, the two swords that Venus wielded were now at a stage where they were incredibly sharp and powerful, far beyond their previous state. At this stage, you could forget about blocking the sword with your bare hands; even fighting it with another sword could be considered insufficient.Blocking it with bare hands was tantamount to suicide. Not to mention an ordinary cultivator, even an A-Rank cultivator, his hand would be immediately cut off if he tried to block the girl's weapon.The second reason was that the sword had become extremely hot. Even if her opponent had a shield made of the strongest material

    "Keep talking nonsense! It won't affect me in the slightest!" Venus stubbornly held onto her two swords, channeling all her inner energy to withstand the increasingly agonizing cold."As you wish!" Darrin replied in a cold tone, apparently having lost his patience.He didn't want to prolong the matter with the girls. But they were the ones who kept pushing him. To be treated like that made the young man realize that he couldn't be merciful to them anymore. He had to teach them a lesson so they wouldn't play with him any more.He released eighty percent of the ice element in his body and channeled it into both swords. At that moment, something unexpected happened. As the cold energy flowed over the surface of the swords, a crackling sound could be heard, as if they had reached an extremely low freezing point.At this point, Venus should have understood that if the swords could freeze due to Darrin's inner energy, what would happen to her hands?It was not hard to say that the girl real

    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

    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
