Darrin opened a teleportation portal and sent the two girls back to Starlight. He wasn't worried that the Dark Knight would follow them or try to stop them, because he knew that the old man had someone more important to focus on first - Utior. And just as he had predicted, the armored man just stood there and laughed at him.

"Hahaha! Do you think they're safe just because you sent them back to Starlight? You really are a fool! After I kill you, I'll hunt them down and bury them right under your palace!"

The Dark Knight was thrilled because the grand plan he had been hatching for so long was finally coming to fruition. For years he had searched for Utior. And today he had found him.

He had even managed to free the wizard from his seal after successfully deceiving Darrin. To enjoy this monumental success, he wanted to give the foolish young man some time to enjoy the rest of his life in this world. After that, he would send the young man straight to hell.

    With a light push, Utior's body collapsed to the ground."You insolent fool!" The Dark Knight shouted loudly, unable to contain his frustration. "You should never have been given the chance to live another moment! For being so insolent to the Grand Sorcerer, there's no punishment more fitting for you than death!"The Dark Knight was a character known for his stern and severe nature. However, he rarely spoke in such a raised tone. In the Kingdom of Heaven, where he was highly respected, he never had to shout to be heard or to have his orders obeyed. Even when he spoke softly, people were too afraid to listen or obey.Therefore, his behavior today only caused the three female disciples behind him to bow their heads even lower out of sheer fear. It was the loudest scream they had ever heard.The Dark Knight could no longer contain himself. He immediately rose from his kneeling position and stood in front of Darrin, grabbing the young man by the collar. "You bastard! Have you lost your mi

    "There is no way that the Eldest Brother would lie, right?" the Dark Knight thought, trying to convince himself. The person the old man called the Eldest Brother would not say such a trivial thing. "If the Grand Sorcerer is really dead, wouldn't he have ordered me to find him?"The Dark Knight was in a dilemma. On the one hand, he really didn't understand what was happening. Was the figure in front of him really Utior or not? On the other hand, he began to wonder if his eldest brother had ulterior motives in giving him this mission.But slowly, the shock in his heart turned into feelings of disappointment and anger. How could he not? He had spent the last two years searching for a person who had apparently turned into a corpse. If only he had known earlier, he wouldn't have wasted so many resources, especially his disciples, on this futile task.Of all his efforts, perhaps the greatest sacrifice was when he had to give up Claus. Not only was he a very loyal disciple, but he was also w

    This time, the Dark Knight unleashed a barrage of attacks on Darrin, using every ounce of his inner strength. But the longer he continued, the more he began to realize something. "Strange! Why does it feel like I'm hitting something incredibly hard?"Earlier, the Dark Knight had been consumed by anger, and with the dust still swirling in the air, he couldn't see the young man clearly. He assumed that the young man was trying to dodge his attacks, so his blows only hit the ground or rocks. But as he gradually regained control of his emotions, he was able to think more clearly."No! There's no way this young man can evade my attacks!" he thought. The Dark Knight had far more inner strength than Darrin. So how could the young man dodge his blows?Besides, "Even if what I'm hitting is the ground or rocks, they should shatter instantly!" But instead of shattering, whatever he hit remained whole and unchanged, as if unaffected by his attacks.Realizing that something was wrong, the Dark Kni

    How could they not be shocked? The armor their master was wearing was no ordinary armor. Not only was it made of rare steel, but it was also forged using a special technique that made it super light and fit the wearer perfectly.Moreover, it was said that this armor was made by a great sorcerer. With his magical skills, he created an incredibly strong steel armor with a durability that surpassed any shield in the world. With such a quality, it was almost certain that no sword in existence could penetrate it.This belief was not only in the Dark Knight's mind. His three female disciples shared the same belief. Therefore, it was unimaginable how shocked they were to see what had just happened to the armor.Besides, if someone could accomplish such an almost impossible feat, wouldn't he have to be incredibly strong? At that moment, the three girls began to look at Darrin differently. "How strong is this young man really?"While they were still in shock, they saw that the young man was al

    "So don't say another word! For now, all we can do is watch and wait! Remember that well!"Those were Venus' words that the two girls heard in their ears. If the eldest sister had said that, there was nothing they could do. Aphrodite fell silent, while Athena still struggled to contain her anger at the young man.In truth, although Venus appeared calm on the outside, what she felt on the inside was quite different. For the past ten years, she had believed that the Dark Knight was one of the three strongest in Arcadia, someone even the Beaumont family would think twice about crossing. She had clung to that belief until she saw the battle unfold before her eyes.That belief was shattered. Not only had her master been utterly defeated, but his opponent was an unknown young man, someone who had never been considered a threat. The defeat of her master finally eroded her admiration and pride for the old man, as well as her fear of him.At least for now, for the first time in her life, Venus

    Darrin's eyes were now filled with fierce determination and anger. He clenched one of his fists and prepared to land a blow on the Dark Knight's face. However, anyone observing what had happened might have one question in their mind."How did Darrin suddenly turn into someone so different? Someone strong enough to defeat the Dark Knight! Where did this young man get his strength from?"A few moments earlier.While still in the timeless dimension where Darrin had rejected Fenrisar's proposal, the giant fox had nudged him with the tip of his nose. At that moment, the fox was not actually pushing him out of the timeless dimension. Instead, it pushed him into another timeless dimension where visions of the future were unfolding.When Darrin saw what was about to happen, he realized the truth of Fenrisar's words. Then he took Utior out of the pendant. After that, the giant fox revealed a secret."There is a reason why I asked you to take the sorcerer out of the pendant. It has to do with a

    With such a desire in his heart, Darrin was curious about one thing. "What must I do to increase my inner strength?" he asked the giant fox with a very curious expression. "And for the highest level, how can I reach it?"Fenrisar looked at Darrin with a satisfied look in his eyes. "The answer to both of your questions is quite simple. If you wish it, the first thing you have to do is to free Utior from this pendant!""Wait! You keep pushing me to do that; what do you really want?" Since Fenrisar kept pushing him to release the sorcerer from the seal, he slowly began to realize that the giant fox was hiding something from him. "What exactly are you hiding from me?""I can't tell you now! You'll find out when you open it!"Darrin looked at Fenrisar for a moment before making a decision. "All right, I'll do it!" There was no reason for him to distrust the giant fox anymore.He gripped the pendant tightly in his hand and chanted a spell. When he saw Utior emerge from the gem, Fenrisar ask

    A hundred years ago, when the cultivators were searching for the safest place to imprison Utior, they couldn't find one until one of them noticed the necklace Alford wore around his neck, a necklace he had inherited from his ancestors. "It seems we have found the place," the cultivator said, pointing to the necklace Alford was wearing. "Your necklace is no ordinary one; I believe it is made of gems with powerful magical properties."With Fenrisar's approval and guidance, Alford removed one of the gems from the necklace and gave it to the cultivator. This gem then became the sorcerer's prison. As expected, it turned out to be a very strong prison.However, when one of the gems was removed from the necklace, the power of the Hayes Necklace naturally decreased. Only by restoring the missing gem could Darrin unlock the full power of the necklace.And now that he had acquired the power of the necklace, Darrin was curious to see how much his inner strength had grown. He was certain that he

    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

    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
