“Show us what’s happening at the colosseum, Brother,” Suki was pulling the shirt of Ulmer’s clone. “Please!”“No, a dangerous monster has arrived there,” Ulmer’s clone replied. “It’s going to cause a lot of destruction. Probably. It’s not something a child like you should watch.”“I’m not a child!” Suki blurted innocently. “I’m ten years old!”“You’re only eight, Suki,” Kale said.“E-Eight is old enough,” Suki opined.“No, it’s not,” Kale added. “You still suck your thumb in your sleep, don’t you?”“T-That’s got nothing to do with this!” Suki yelled. “Please, Brother. I want to see that monster. I want to see you fight that dragon!”Ayana pulled Suki’s ear and took her to their mother. Robin grabbed Suki by the shoulders and took her to their room.Ayana then looked a bit nervously at Ulmer’s clone. “Are you sure you want to stay there when most of the people are running away? You don’t have to fight that thing and risk your life. These people will not even praise you for your efforts
“Why isn’t it coming down?” Brianna asked.“Maybe, it didn’t expect the location to be here, where there are so many of us,” Alveron said. “That thing’s priority is probably to devour the dragonworms as they’re full of rich nutrients. But now that the dragonworms are dead, and their bodies have been shattered to bits and pieces and were scattered everywhere like dust, that dragon might be wondering what it should do right now.”“Mm…” Brianna paused for a moment. (I’ve heard from Dad that the Dragon of Doom caused lots of damage in the past, when he was just a kid, and that Grandpa was the one who stopped it by injuring it. It was already at level 98 back then. It’s probably at level 99 now, just like Grandpa. If that thing had eaten the dragonworms now, it would have likely leveled up and reached level 100. That’s something that was unheard of. Only the first emperor who established Syslon has reached that level. No one else in history was able to achieve that feat.) She then began to
Many years ago.Brianna and Vincent were both taken by Emperor Dylan to an altar. They were both told to offer firstfruits of their labor, which was the money they earned in their first month of work that they used to buy delicious food of a different kind.After they put the rare and delicious fruits, one each, by the altar and prayed, Vincent asked Dylan, “Grandpa, why are the fruits not disappearing? Why isn’t God taking them and eating them?”“That’s because God doesn’t exist,” Brianna opined. “But we do this as it is a custom.”“Who said God doesn’t exist?” Dylan pulled Brianna’s cheek.“If he exists, then why doesn’t he eat the fruits?” Brianna quickly asked another question with her little brain. She was only eight years old at the time.“The priest is going to eat those fruits,” Dylan replied. “It is the same as God eating the fruits.”“That makes no sense,” Brianna said. “Then why don’t we also pray to the priest? Wouldn’t that be the same as praying to God?”“That’s a good q
The black dragon did not see anyone bowing before its presence, and so it didn’t even think about talking with them.It straightaway used its special breathing ability to suck the air into its lungs and created a spiraling flame which then blasted down like a pillar and traveled miles down before crashing on the ground and spreading in every direction.The royal knights had formed a barrier to block the flames from hurting the others, and the flames cracked and broke the barrier.The Thompson family from the Frostlands and their people used their ice ability to negate the flames.Alveron used his Gravity Shatter attack to dismantle the flames and stop them from touching Brianna.Oscar just stood there, with his hands in his pockets, for the flames did not touch him, or rather they couldn’t touch him. They could only go around him, for he was a master of heavenly flames.Zebron, on the other hand, used his sword to cut through the flames and split them into pieces, making them fade awa
“Bozo…” the dragon uttered in a low growl. “You want to fight me alone? What makes you think you’re worthy of my whole attention?”“You wouldn’t know unless you give me a chance,” Ulmer replied.“You’ve already fought me and got scared and ran away,” the dragon said. “I have nothing more left to know about a coward like you.” It started sucking air once again and unleashed a pillar of flames straight onto Ulmer.Ulmer once again raised his hand and blocked the attack with his palm, causing the flames to surf past him in both directions.The entire sky was painted reddish yellow from the flames. It looked breathtakingly beautiful.Ulmer’s hand also got burnt, but he bore the pain and grinned at the dragon. “How was that? Do you feel like fighting me alone now?”“I didn’t come here to fight a single human,” the dragon said and then snaked through the sky, completely ignoring Ulmer and then came down the sky and brought a couple of big clouds along with it.The clouds were already big as
The lightning attack of the dragon wasn’t just fast but ultra powerful. It destroyed the ground, creating a giant crater.Many people thought that Regina and Neodus died from that attack, as they were nowhere to be seen.But a few seconds later, after the dust settled on the ground, Brianna saw Neodus and Regina next to the emperor’s throne. (Did he teleport them both in that instant?) She could teleport herself, but she still was not able to teleport other people. (I could barely see that attack, though.) This made it certain for her that grandfather was still at a different level compared to her, and that she needed to improve even more in order to surpass him.The dragon then released dozens of bolts in every direction, intending to strike many people, but all those people were teleported briefly and were taken to different spots.“You cannot touch anyone unless you and I settle things first,” Dylan told the dragon. “But I will not stop them from attacking you. These children need
The Emperor created a spear with wind and flew on its top, and the dragon followed him.Ulmer looked a bit angry.[Haha, are you feeling annoyed that the dragon was willing to have a one-on-one fight with the emperor but not you?] Dove chortled. [He’s the strongest person in the empire, so it’s to be expected.]“It’s okay,” Ulmer said. “I will get to watch them fight.” He was planning on going toward them, but he felt his body suddenly getting pulled down toward the earth. And he found himself crashing into the earth with an invisible cage around him. “This is…”Alveron walked toward him with a smile on his face. “Gravity Cage… It’s much stronger than the last time you felt it.”Ulmer felt like his skin itself was being ripped out of his flesh. Even the wooden posts were being broken, and the tree trunks were cracking and breaking in the neighborhood. The size of the gravity cage itself was bigger than an average football stadium. And its size kept shrinking, putting more pressure on
A while ago.At three o’clock in the afternoon, Ulmer was sitting in his room, in front of an old laptop. Ulmer was chatting with others on his laptop, and his sisters, Grace and Kristy entered the room and jumped on his bed.Ulmer shut the laptop quickly.“Hey, let us watch, too!” Kristy said. “We know you’re talking with girls.”“Let us help you since you’re not able to get a girlfriend,” Grace said. She had short hair unlike Kristy. She also had a mole on her cheek.“Who said I’m looking for a girlfriend?” he blurted. “I was just looking for a job.”“Job? Hahaha,” the sisters laughed together.“What’s so funny?” he barked at them.“You should have lied with something more believable!” Kristy said. “You have poor grades. You don’t have a job. And you’re also from a poor family. Dad won’t even give his car to you even though you’ve long crossed 18. So, who would want to date you?”“He can go to a mental hospital,” Grace suggested. “Maybe he will find someone that might be attracted t
