The actions Desmon took did not evoke any sense of pride in Gaster's heart; instead, what was uttered seemed like a slight to his own power.Gaster thought, "He easily blocked my attacks earlier, and I couldn't push further. He possesses far greater strength than I imagined!" He tried to devise a plan utilizing his members, but only those less skilled in combat were left. Meanwhile, Meira and Noire had fallen in pitiful conditions.There were no good options left; he had to be willing to expend all his power to defeat Desmon. A great surge of power flowed significantly within his body, shaking every joint.Desmon chose to remain silent, wanting to gauge the extent of Gaster's strength.It was truly unbelievable to the members today, the most respected person was exerting immense energy, power that had never been used for years.Gaster's power began to soar, merging into his body as a special enhancement shield."Are you done?" Desmon asked casually."Yes, I'm done doing it!" replied G
The terrifying news of Desmon's actions had spread to every region, each area preparing itself for the arrival of this ferocious creature, but they understood the historical records of Desmon's power should not be underestimated.The leaders from various regions finally held an impromptu meeting to devise a strategy in an attempt to stop Desmon, knowing well that relying on physical strength wouldn't be enough.Gilbert as the son of a regional leader, also had to attend. He was advised to be there by his father and Houjin, a respected hermit.Five leaders were present: Brown from Turnera, Greff as Gilbert's father and leader of Barnora, Heizal leader of Tonordop, Seila leader of the Sonola region, and Marlo leader of Genoma.Famous hermits were also present; they all had to participate in this complex issue. Houjin, Leian, Barnom, and one hermit who hadn't been present before, now appeared, named Yelia.The discussion hadn't begun yet, but they were confused about how to proceed. Addr
In the end, they still found themselves at an impasse in determining all these problems, even though they tried to find solutions, it was too contradictory to the situation they were facing, many of which might become obstacles.Gilbert suddenly hands up; he felt that now was the right time for him to do so."What's going on, and I apologize, who are you?" Sceial asked.It's no wonder they didn't recognize Gilbert's face, a son quite unfamiliar to many. Of course, his presence wasn't significant at all.Gilbert bravely stood up. "My name is Gilbert, I am here as a student of Henberg and the son of Griff!"Everyone was immediately shocked to hear this; information about Henberg until now was quite secretive, especially since Henberg also didn't really want to communicate with others, so this was left as it was."Henberg's student..." Barnom murmured with a surprised expression.For the hermits, Gilbert's energy within his body wasn't too dominant, not like Henberg, who was famous for h
The tension etched within the room made the air hotter, not merely exchanging glances but spreading an intense aura filled with fear as if choking everything present."The air in this room is so hot!" muttered Leian as he fanned himself with his fingers. "If I may suggest, why don't you just answer immediately? Why wasn't the meeting requested by Henberg attended?"Yelia glanced towards Leian, who seemed to mock her as well, slowly exhaling a long breath."Alright, I'll explain it, because at that time, I didn't want to die..."An unexpected response, coming from a formidable hermit like Yelia, to say such a thing. Indeed, by cultivating energy, one could prolong their life, but it wouldn't stop aging.From the preserved beauty, they could conclude that Yelia was speaking the truth."Afraid of death? Is that the only reason you have?" snapped Barnom."Yes, what else?" Yelia paused briefly before continuing, "I had no ulterior motives. I understand that there might have been important
Slowly Zeion's eyes opened wide, there stood Zero with the same gaze, full of terror as usual."It seems like you've been using something like this too often!""Yes... I feel this energy is truly wild, having thoughts that are difficult to predict to the point where I find it hard to express whether, with power like this, I will be able to master it?" he asked, staring at his whole body.Zeion floated with his hair and beard flowing, he had reached a stage where the power within his body could flow tremendously. This was all thanks to his daily hard training, although not directly trained by Zero, but he could do it all on his own.Zero was quite pleased with this progress, although mastering pure energy was still far off for Zeion."Zeion, do you still want to do this?""Yes, I feel like my time must be used for this, I can't just stop like this, I have to keep doing it until this energy can truly merge into my body..."Zero's face didn't greet this with a smile; he gave a look of se
"If that's the case, do I need to participate in the competition organized by Mr. Brown?" Mily asked curiously, even if she were to be rejected, it would still be the most normal option."Yes..."But her heart became hard to control, what she saw was a serene smile from Charlotte, indicating an honor for her."But, shouldn't I be your guard? Such things shouldn't be done...""Once again, you say something like this. You should understand that conquering the strength possessed by threatening creatures is difficult. If it weren't for that, why would my brother hold another competition? The prize offered is also not trivial..."Charlotte's gaze turned fiercer, the promised prize was her honor. She had to marry a male fighter capable of winning this competition, but if the one who defeated him was a female, then the woman would be given anything she wanted, including half of the territory of the kingdom.Charlotte's locked heart would certainly not agree to marry a stranger. But, she was
Charlotte didn't have many options; she had to follow what Mily said. Both of them started to move, feeling as though time was chasing them with great urgency."I understand that what Mr. Brown said wasn't just an order; he wants us to be safe here! He predicted that all of this would happen! At least, I want Princess Charlotte to survive this disaster..." As they hurried along, a massive massacre had occurred that was already taking place outside the mansion. Desmon suddenly descended from the sky, landing and terrorizing with immense dread. Moving like lightning, he took the lives of everyone he saw.The soldiers after hearing the screams and commotion, quickly rushed to the scene, but they couldn't do much. Their strength was weak compared to someone with such high abilities.In just one swift attack, many fell."Damn..." Brown punched the partition wall, seeing the scream and panic of the townsfolk. He felt the urge to dive into the area and fulfill his duty as a leader.But his
Desperate times, one could say that's the situation that accurately describes Charlotte and Mily's condition. They were at death's door, facing a creature with terrifying strength, radiating fear from the aura surrounding its body.Desmon's fingers urged Mily to advance and attack, but Mily couldn't bring herself to do it. She understood well that Desmon was not a weak creature easily defeated. Throughout the commotion battle in the town, not a single wound had landed, indicating that her attacks might have little effect.Her fingers were drenched in relentless sweat."Princess Charlotte..." Mily whispered, Charlotte's gaze turning towards her. "There's something I need to say, I might not be a great and perfect guard for you, but I'll say this as your guardian in our final duty...""Final duty? What are you saying? Don't say we're parting ways here..." Charlotte couldn't hold back her tears, they flowed freely with melancholy filling her soul."Forgive me! I can't promise your safety
