The dragon had released a powerful shockwave attack, which brought Ulmer’s heartbeat to a halt.

Ulmer’s body kept rising higher.

“I can’t hear his heartbeat,” Ormrker grinned. “As expected, the techniques of celestials are on a different level.” And then it coughed blood. “But the backlash is heavy. It put a tremendous toll on my body. I don’t want to let his body go to waste…” Ormrker desperately swam up, with its eyes full of greed.

However, just then, Ulmer’s heart started beating again.

And the waters all around him began to send ripples as if they were sensitive to his heartbeat.

Ormrker could hear his heartbeat rising, and his body suddenly released a burst of spiritual energy, which was so strong that even Ormrker was getting pushed back. “What the hell? Where is all this ridiculous energy coming from? That brat who nearly died?”

Ulmer’s hair turned golden. He opened his eyes and realized that he was still in the midst of the waters. He was now able to breathe involuntarily und

    The shockwave didn’t go past Ulmer but was completely eradicated. This was the same shockwave that almost killed him a few minutes ago. Ulmer had gone from level 94 to level 99, but still, this wasn’t an attack that could be nullified so effortlessly. Even the emperor Dylan wouldn’t have been able to pull it off like Ulmer did.Naturally, Ormrker’s eyes widened slowly but surely, as though it had seen a ghost come back to life to mess with him.Ormrker’ was out of breath after using that attack, for it took a significant toll on its body. It began to drink the waters around, which helped it recover faster, for they were rich with pure oxygen. This helped heal the dragon, too. Even its lost scales recovered.“So you can use the waters here to heal yourself to such an extent,” Ulmer said. “No wonder you’ve brought me here.” He clapped his hands, and all the waters around the dragon began to squeeze the dragon from every direction, as if the space itself was viciously pressing it.Ormrk

    Dylan appeared in front of the dragon as it was snaking through the sky. “Where are you leaving in such a hurry, lizard?”Calling dragon a lizard was utterly degrading for a dragon, but Ormrker didn’t have the time or patience to deal with Dylan now. “Dragon Dash!” Like a bolt of lightning, Ormrker traveled zig-zag through the sky and covered hundreds of miles with ease.However, Dylan once again appeared right in front of the dragon. “Your speed is useless in front of me who can teleport anywhere I want in this realm.”“Dodge this if you can!’ Ormrker released the dragon section and shot it in every direction.“Fool,” Dylan covered his fists with a combination of vire and spiritual energy, and then deflected the needle shower rather effortlessly. These needles were extremely fast, but Dylan was just that much faster.The fact that he didn’t even need to move backward to dodge the attacks hurt Ormrker’s pride.“Keep wasting your energy like that, and it’ll make things easy for us to

    “I’m no longer just a dragon now. I’ve become a dragon god!” Ormrker was laughing out loud, spitting lava from his mouth and nostrils. He was giving off golden flames from his tail, which made tremendous noise just moving around. Even its nails were glittering like gold. “Who can kill me? No one! I’m immortal! I’m invincible! I’m unstoppable!”As the dragon was busy praising himself, he saw Ulmer and Dylan flying down.“Hahaha, you two have such bad luck on your side,” Ormrker chortled. “Now, it’s my turn to show you hell and humiliate you until you die! But don’t worry. I’ll not let your precious bodies go to waste. I’ll make sure to digest every single bone in both your bodies!”Ormrker opened his mouth wide and sucked both of them toward himself fearlessly.“Follow my movements,” Dylan said, gathering spiritual energy in his right hand. “Twelfth Form of Emperor Arts…” Ulmer also gathered spiritual energy in his left hand, and both of them together. “Paragon Blast!”Their spiritual

    Even after its own flame exploded in Ormrker’s mouth, he was fine. And he was smiling assuredly, as he was fully sure that he would not die today.“Don’t you two get it?” Ormrker said aloud. “The stars are on my side. I’m not going to die today. And you will die. Both of you will die. And then I’ll go straight to your families and kill them and hang their heads at your God’s altar and then sit on that altar and rule the entirety of Syslon! Once I gather all the systems and give them to my obedient followers, I’ll wage war on the whole world and bring everyone to submission. Anybody who raises their sword against me shall perish. And I shall be the sole sovereign of this world! And you should cry from hell!”“You seem to say the same thing again and again,” Dylan said, “but you are not going to escape from us.”“Escape?” Ormrker snorted. “What does that even mean?”Dylan smirked. “Oh, did you forget already? It’s okay. You will remember it soon.”“Hmph,” Ormrker snorted once more, rele

    The moment Dylan and Ulmer were pulled into the dragon’s mouth, Dylan acted faster than Ulmer and used his Staff of Judgment to create a flaming sphere.Thanks to that, the dragon’s flaming breath only ended up blasting that flaming sphere away. Normally, it wouldn’t be possible to give such a confined shape to fire, though it does have weight due to the gaseous particles, but Dylan’s spiritual energy managed to confine the flames in the shape of a sphere, despite getting hit by the dragons’ breath from as close a range as possible.The flaming sphere thinned down quite a bit, but it was still there.Ulmer and Dylan both burst out of the flaming sphere at the same time. “That was close,” Ulmer said. He was also about to react, but Dylan was a fraction of a second faster. “Thanks.”“Don’t mention it,” Dylan’s gaze was focused on the dragon. “Let me teach you how to use teleportation.” Dylan plucked one of his hairs and sent it flying into Ulmer’s mouth.“Pfft,” Ulmer started coughing.

    It was told too suddenly for Ulmer, and he couldn’t do it. So, Dylan teleported both of them higher into the sky so they avoided the meteor and its heat trail.Dylan sent a fire ball flying at the meteor and hit so that its path changed, and it headed straight toward the dragon.“That’s great. Eat that, bitch!” Ulmer shouted in excitement.Ormrker suddenly released black aura out of its body, which enveloped around the meteor and completely devoured it.Ulmer went a bit speechless. “W-What was that? It can manipulate shadows?”“Not shadows but darkness,” Dylan said. “There is one system out of all the systems in Syslon that allows itself to be used even by the beasts of the field. That’s the Darkness System.”“If it has the Darkness System, why didn’t it use it until now?” Ulmer asked.“Once it uses that system’s ability, it loses all sense of self,” Dylan said. “It’ll become a complete beast. Here it comes…”The great dragon leaped through the space and clawed at both of them. “Dark

    Dylan lit a big torch with his staff of judgment, and it was able to withstand the utter darkness that the Black Sun Bomb had created.“This darkness… it’s spreading, but it’s not thinning…” Dylan realized that this was going to travel far and high enough to even block if not devour the sun and the moon circling in the sky, so he used more of his strength to release balls of flaming light in every direction, and these balls slowly but surely cast the darkness away.In doing so, it also revealed the ongoing fight between Ulmer and the crazed dragon, which created dark clouds to dance through heaven as it wrestled with Ulmer with great agility, speed, and might.Ulmer’s sweat evaporated instantly, and his blood was so hot it made his skin glow red as he kept up with the dragon. He couldn’t use teleportation ability successfully in a row, so he had to resort to his speed and agility to counter the dragon’s movements.It was a treat to watch for Dylan, seeing these two fight toe to toe.

    It wasn’t just that Ulmer felt his energy being sucked off, but he was also hallucinating inside the dark sphere.Ulmer’s dad was scolding him after seeing his report card in college. “You took six years to finish it. Forget about A grade, you didn't even get C in any course.”“S-Sorry, Dad,” Ulmer lowered his head. “I tried.”“Don’t give me that bullshit,” Ulmer’s dad coldly said. “You don’t have talent. I know that. But you don’t need talent to succeed in life. You only need one thing. Discipline. If you have that, you can commit yourself to achieve anything. Look at me. I was a professional runner who dreamed to win olympics. One accident changed my entire life, and my first love left me. I started smoking, drinking, and wasting time doing nothing. Those damn therapies never worked. But then, one day after your grandpa died, I, being the first son of the family, had to lead it. I looked in the mirror and faced my fears.

    A few months later.Ben and Amelie not only started their business together but also got married, and Ivy as usual caused a lot of noise during the marriage, asking Ross Richard to give her son this and that.Ross had to give in to her demands because of his daughter Amelie.Ivy’s brother took some gold from her and started a restaurant business because Ulmer had commanded him to stop his finance business as he was sucking people’s blood with it. His wife didn’t like it and went back to her home, but she would eventually return to his side a few years later, after her mother would die.Rick Orsini’s right-hand man, Lexor, was sitting alone on the rooftop of a big hotel, reading the online news on his tablet.“Someone called Urban God joined the Underworld Kings competition?” Lexor raised his eyebrows. “If he’s the real deal, no one will be able to stop him.”Underworld Kings was a world-wide martial arts competition where people with all kinds of superpowers competed, with loose rules

    “Your wife?!”“That girl who looks younger than Ruth is your wife?” Ivy quickly said. “Are you out of your mind, Ulmer?”“She’s 19,” Ulmer coldly glanced at her. “So, what’s the problem?”“T-That’s…” Ivy found her throat shaking. His gaze felt intimidating. “I-Isn’t there too much age gap between you two?”“What bullshit are you saying, Ivy?” Mollie snorted. “My grandson is not even thirty, and you say there’s an age gap? Can’t you see that they both look nice next to one another? Also, it’s actually nice if there's a five to six year gap between the husband and wife.”Mollie gently held Ayana’s cheeks and lifted up her head.“Where did you hide such a pretty girl all this time from us, Ulmer?” Mollie said. “You will get punished for this later.”“Ulmer always talks greatly about you, Grandmother,” Ayana said. “So, please forgive him this once.”“Hahaha,” Mollie laughed heartily. “Your wife is already defending you so much, Ulmer.

    The news of so many Thorns dying did not get leaked in the underworld, much less to the common public.However, some of the topdogs in the underworld eventually heard of the heart-shaking news that more than half of the thorns died in the hands of someone called the Urban God.And the title Urban God started to be feared by those who have heard about it.Also, a new bounty appeared on the Urban God, whose name and face were kept hidden by the thorns on purpose.His current bounty was a quadrillion dollars, twice as much as the current world’s known wealth.The amount was so ridiculous and crazy that many bounty hunters thought it was just a fake bounty. A scam. A joke.But then there were those who believed that it could be real and started to investigate the name Urban God. However, most of them would give up on their search the more they learned about the recent history of the Urban God.A few weeks after Crimia was buried from the hidden face of the earth.Minerva had woken up, but

    At around two in the night, the vibrations stopped, and the people finally were able to breathe freely.Many of them went back into their homes and slept. Some still stayed outside, afraid of the quake happening again.Around three in the night, Dark Monarch arrived at the Bronich city, but he was surprised to find out that the entire Crimia had been buried by mud. All the entrances were sealed off by mud.“What the hell just happened here in the time I was gone? Was he responsible for this?”Just then, he looked up into the sky.Miles high in the sky, Abbie was flying away with her mother’s body in her arms, her expression dark and desolate under moonlight.“Isn’t that…”Suddenly, immense pressure was put on his body.“Gravity Cage…” Ulmer appeared next to him.Dark Monarch’s body was crushed from every angle by pressure he had never experienced before. He screamed at the top of his lungs.“You should have never returned,” Ulmer did not spare even an inkling of mercy on him. “Gravity

    “She’s going to live,” the royal healer, Irvi, an old lady with poisonous pimples all over her face, said. She was 120 years old but was still able to stand straight. However, her voice was not steady. She was observing Minerva’s pulse.Minerva was lying on the bed in the medical chambers not far from the royal palace.“However, her system has integrated with her body, so we can’t take it out,” Irvi said. “If we do it right now, she will die.”“Is it not possible to separate the system without killing her?” Ulmer asked.“It is, but that’s only possible when she overcomes the system?” Irvi responded. “The chances of that ever happening are slim.”Ulmer frowned but then said, “Do what you can to heal her.”“I will. That’s my job, after all,” Irvi said. “No matter how wicked a person may be, if they come to my doorstep, I will not turn my back toward them.”Ulmer slightly bowed his head to her and walked out onto the balcony of that building, where Minerva’s dad, Neodus was present.“I t

    The vines suddenly dashed at Ulmer from behind.Ulmer didn’t even move an inch and stood unmoving.The vines rushed past him at a terrific speed and pierced Minerva’s body everywhere. She coughed out a lot of blood.“I didn’t want my blood on your hands,” she tried to smile despite the pain coursing through her body. “I’m… really sorry… for everything.”She was collapsing forward.Ulmer let go of the sword and held her shoulders, stopping her from falling to the ground.Minerva’s eyes began to turn completely dark. The vines that pierced her body began to turn direction and then pierced through Ulmer’s body from behind.Blood rushed to Ulmer’s mouth, but kept his mouth shut. Still, blood slowly leaked from a corner of his mouth.He sent a mental message to her. “It’s okay…”He wrapped his arms around her and hugged her.Minerva’s eyes shed more tears, and the blackness in her eyes began to disperse slowly but surely.In a few moments, Minerva’s eyes closed.He could still feel her spi

Know your place, vermin!” Ishtar, the war goddess, who looked extremely seductive as well as scary, squinted her eyes, releasing a powerful wave of energy that was supposed to suppress her opponent.Ulmer felt goosebumps all over. “Whooo… that tingles.” He smiled with excitement. (She saw through my system with a glance. I don’t know who she is, but she’s very dangerous. It’s not just her….) His gaze fell on others. (They are all
