The Man With System Chapter 328 - The Official Visit of a King
If King Nicolaus brought such a large army, wouldn't it seem like he was heading to a battlefield?"I wouldn't dare say anything until I see it with my own eyes, Your Majesty," the guard said, keeping his head down.The guard's report immediately caused an uproar in the palace hall. Not only the high officials, but everyone present was shocked by the news."This is truly alarming!" one official said to another. "Why is King Nicolaus coming to Arcadia with such a large army? What is he really after?""It seems that the situation is more complicated than we thought. We need to prepare for all possibilities."The atmosphere in the hall, once festive and joyful, now became tense and pressurized. This tension wasn't because they feared the Kingdom of Heaven. That wasn't the reason.They had powerful cultivators like Prince Hector and Shadow, who could lead armies to face any attack, no matter how strong.However, Arcadia and the Kingdom of Heaven had never had any history of conflict. If s
The Man With System Chapter 329 - The Proposal to Princess Helena
Several people in the row of seats stared back at Nicolaus. Among them were Darrin and Prince Hector.Especially for Darrin, many questions had filled his mind the moment he saw Nicolaus and his officials enter the hall. Now he understood why he had felt uneasy earlier. "Is it because of their arrival?"He also kept an eye on Theobaldus. "The old man who approached me in the starlight is someone close to the king?" From the way Theobaldus spoke and interacted with Nicolaus, Darrin could tell that the old man must be the second most important person on Green Island after the king.Then he looked at Nicolaus, who happened to be looking at him as well. "If this old man was the one who orchestrated all of this," the plan to make him the sole candidate for governor of Blissfeld and the plan to poison King Victor, "he must have done it with the king's approval, right?"It was impossible for Theobaldus to have planned all this without Nicolaus' knowledge. And if what he thought was true, thi
The Man With System Chapter 330 - An Accusation That Cannot Be Made Without Proof
One by one, these people expressed their admiration, causing the hall to fill with murmured whispers. However, hearing all these hopes and praises did not bring joy to Princess Helena. On the contrary, it only added to her burden, which was clearly reflected on her face.Seeing the princess's expression, Nicolaus said nothing further. He gently took her left hand and slipped the ring onto her ring finger."I don't want your answer now. But please don't make me suffer and die within a week without hearing it. But don't hesitate or be afraid to say what is really in your heart, because no matter what your answer is, I will be glad to hear it.""And please don't misunderstand me. I'm not doing this to impose my will on you," he continued as he carefully placed the ring on her finger. "I just want to show you how sincere my feelings for you are. You can return it if you find that you don't share the same feelings."Nicolaus' words left Helena speechless. In her many years on Green Island,
The Man With System Chapter 331 - A Witness and Evidence
King Victor was speechless when he heard the accusation that Nicolaus made against Darrin. "No, it can't be true, can it?" he thought in confusion. "Darrin could not have orchestrated such a heinous plan!"Though his heart wanted to deny it, like everyone else, his mind told him that the ruler of Green Island wouldn't make unfounded claims. If he was going to make an accusation, it would have to be after gathering all the necessary evidence.Besides, Nicolaus and Darrin came from different places, and there had been no previous animosity between them. So there was no reason to doubt that the first man's accusation was true.Still, for some reason, King Victor found it hard to accept that Darrin, the young man who had helped him, was the mastermind behind the whole scheme."Victor, I know that in your heart you will not justify an accusation without seeing the evidence for yourself. I won't blame you if you don't believe what I've said so far. But you must hear this man!"Nicholas turn
The Man With System Chapter 332 - It Was a Great Ambition That Blinded Him
The sound of insults and taunts against Darrin grew louder and filled the room. As the voices grew louder, King Victor's face became increasingly tense as he held back his anger. His hands, resting on the armrests of his throne, clenched tightly.The people in the hall were growing restless and angry, feeling betrayed by Darrin's appearance and behavior, which had seemed so admirable and exceptional on the outside.But the king's anger was far greater than theirs.He had placed great trust in Darrin. He had shown it by hosting a grand banquet and suspending all royal activities just to demonstrate his generosity to the young man. In fact, King Victor had begun to consider appointing Darrin as the next Prime Minister.But Nicolaus' words had opened his eyes to Darrin's true nature. The person he had trusted so much was in fact extremely dangerous. Someone who had been plotting to kill him all along.King Victor was furious at this moment. However, he was still willing to give Darrin a
The Man With System Chapter 333 - Seeing the Truth
Helena didn't mean what she said, of course. It was just that she felt she had no other way to stop Nicolaus from hurting Darrin than by telling this lie. She also couldn't ask King Victor for help, because she believed that her father was too fond of Nicolaus and would listen to anything he said.On the other hand, what Helena said surprised Nicolaus. "What? She accepted my proposal so quickly?" he thought, feeling very pleased.Still, Nicolaus didn't want to believe it so easily. He was sure that the princess had only done this to save this foolish young man. "So you want to sacrifice yourself for this boy?" he thought again. "Well, fine, I'm willing to compete. Let's see who wins your heart in the end."Darrin had only a week left before he had to face his punishment. After that, nothing would stand in the way of Nicolaus marrying Helena.Nicolaus released Darrin from his grasp and shoved him hard."I'm doing this for you, Princess. Otherwise I would have killed this bastard right
The Man With System Chapter 334 - Discovering Nicolaus' True Intentions
Darrin's confession touched the king's heart. It also made him understand one thing. "So even he had almost given up on curing the poison, if he hadn't known about the potion in the golden vial," he thought.King Victor felt deeply indebted to Darrin for his help. Therefore, he did not hesitate to offer him the remaining potion in the vial."I'm sure he's very happy that this potion cured me," he thought. "I will give him the rest."But first, the king held a grand banquet to show his gratitude to Darrin.As he enjoyed the feast before him, the king talked with the young man, asking him many questions about the poison and the ancient medicine. The king pretended to eat heartily, but in reality he used the opportunity to carefully evaluate Darrin's medical expertise. The more they talked, the more he admired the young man.Besides, the knowledge Darrin displayed was impossible to acquire, even if one had studied the subject for twenty years. However, the young man clearly proved to be
The Man With System Chapter 335 - A Secret Kept for Years
"Oh my God! How did I not see this before?" King Victor exclaimed in shock. He couldn't believe that what Darrin had feared had become reality.Anyone who had ever smelled the Gift from Heaven would know immediately that the bottle in the king's hand was fake. The real potion would emit a unique and powerful scent that could be detected from a distance of thirty meters. The bottle in the king's hand had no scent at all."Nicolaus must have switched it before returning it to me! I should have noticed it earlier!"King Victor looked deeply sorry, but what had happened was done. All he could do now was get the vial back.Darrin felt the same way. He may not have explicitly stated his desire for the rest of the potion as his reward, but he knew the king must have been aware of it."Father, shouldn't Darrin and I go to Green Island to retrieve it?" Hector asked. "The sooner we act, the better the chance that they haven't used it yet."The prince seemed eager, but not because he coveted the

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

Chapter 343 - Helena's Sacrifice
"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

Chapter 341 - A Punch, Once Again
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

Chapter 340 - A Strike to Destroy the Vial
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
