In Vulcan district.On the Shadowless Mountain range, Ulmer’s first clone fought the fire-breathing salamanders and a few young dragons and managed to get hold of one of the flaming lotuses.His objective was never to defeat these dragons or salamanders that were in level seventies and eighties. So, after he got hold of a flaming lotus, he ran from there.He ate the flaming lotus and gained the ability of the white flame, also known as the Lotus Flame, which was said to repel water and keep burning even underwater and in the midst of strong winds. This fire was so strong it was said to even burn lava, which brought its famous name Divine Flame.There were many people who tried to eat the flaming lotus and then died right after eating just a part of one of its petals. Only a handful of people had ever been able to eat part of it, and Ulmer was the third person in Syslon’s history to fully eat a flaming lotus, thanks to the Spirit System he had. The first two people who ate these fruits
Even after Ayana got up because of her sister, Ulmer’s heart was still beating fast. She looked very bright and beautiful in the afternoon sunlight.He wanted to feel the suppleness of her cheeks and have a taste of her lips. But hearing her pleasant laughter as she played and wrestled with her little sister wasn’t too bad, either.Seeing them play like that, Ulmer felt all the more need to protect them and their entire family. They were his family, too. In fact, they were the only family he got, save his grandmother.But then the thought of losing this family, possibly once again to Brianna, made his heart tremble.Ulmer’s expression immediately changed.He clenched his fists in resolve. “I will not let her harm my family again. No, I will not even give her the chance to hurt anybody.Ulmer then talked with Ayana and Suki for a little longer and learned a few things, especially because they told him.The nobles did not let anyone else other than themselves and their descendants own p
Skyzone, also known as the District of Lights, was a floating district which was mainly used by the wealthy people of the country.Moreover, it was one of the entertainment spots that the nobles loved to visit.And one well-known fact was that nobody owned a single piece of land in that district as everything belonged to the emperor. And the governor of this district was a member of the royal family.The second clone of Ulmer just reached the city using a flying vehicle. He identified himself as an outsider, but he refused to show his face at the border checkpoint. The guards called their captain.“On whose invite have you come to our Syslon, sir?” the captain of the guards politely asked.“I wasn’t invited by anybody,” Ulmer’s clone replied as he was not allowed to lie because of Dove’s condition. “I came here by myself.”“Haha,” the guards laughed.“It is impossible to break through the barrier surrounding the city,” the captain stated rather proudly. “So, tell me how you entered th
Ulmer’s clone didn’t pick a fight with Beck because Dove didn’t want him to attract unnecessary attention.So, right now, Ulmer’s clone was on the footpath.In front of him, there was a family of three: the parents and their six-year-old child. They looked decently wealthy and also happy as the parents were not putting their child down but were exchanging into each other’s arms as they showed her the district.“Rich or poor, the love of parents is still the same I guess,” Ulmer’s clone smiled and looked around. “By the way, is that item really in this place?”[Of course.]“So, if we take that away, won’t that make us, no, make me a thief?” Ulmer’s clone asked.[No. It won’t.] Dove said. [I would never make you do something immoral. Even if we take that item, it won’t be the same as stealing. As for why that’s the case, you will know eventually.]Just then, a noble was passing by on their beast cart. This cart looked familiar with the polar bears pulling it, but Beck wasn’t the one sit
The guards were rushing to where the signal came from. Ulmer, however, calmly approached the parents.He whispered something in the father’s ears, greatly surprising him.The guards surrounded them. There were more than a dozen of them, and more were on their way.“What are you waiting for?” Rosie blurted. “Subdue them! Especially that bastard with the eye mask.”Just then, a portal opened, and the parents took their daughter and quickly entered through the portal, which closed quickly thereafter.Everyone looked very surprised from seeing the portal.“A-An ability to create portals?” Rosie looked just as surprised as the guards. “Who the hell are you? What kind of a system do you have?”The guard captain from before immediately kneeled before Rosie and explained, “He told me at the entrance that he came to our city on his own and that he wasn’t invited. I didn’t believe him at first, but now it makes sense.”“A trespasser?” Rosie frowned. “That means he’s a bigger threat than I thoug
A Code Red alert was given in Skyzone, with Ulmer’s images being distributed everywhere.He was named as the White Thief. His appearance was different from normal, and he was also wearing a white bird mask that covered his eyes, so even the softwares they had could not artificially create his face to guess how he would really look.Anybody who gives valuable information about White Thief would be rewarded with 100 gold coins.The Thompson family had officers look for the missing family, and as of now, they were nowhere to be found.Rosie had seen them exit through a portal, so she believed that they must have left the city or must be hiding somewhere.Rosie came to meet the governor of Skyzone in his mini-castle that dazzled like a star would in heavenly waters above.“Lord Neodus, I want that brute to be brought to my feet,” Rosie cried out in rage and resentment. “I want to see him get stabbed and bleed to death.”“Rest assured, Lady Rosie,” Neodus Craig said. He had a little crown
When Neodus heard the news of the Light Stone being stolen, he didn’t believe it at first. He had to go to the museum and see it with his own eyes to believe it.When the eyewitnesses, who were the nobles, told him what happened, he immediately understood that it was the same person that fought the Thompson family.Nevertheless, Neodus didn’t let the news leak out to the public as it would cause too much chaos if it was known that the Light Stone was stolen.At the same time, Neodus deployed all the guards to search every corner of Skyzone under his order as the governor of the district as well as the son of the emperor. With those two decrees, the officers began to search everywhere.Also, the top knights around the country also received a message to come to the royal castle in the capital city.These were urgent summons, so even the likes of Alveron had to leave Brianna’s side to attend this meeting.“All the knights are being summoned without even giving them the reason for the su
In Frostlands.A place where penguins used to play with little kids now looked much different from that.Because commoners weren’t allowed to have pets or tame animals, they did not feed the penguins. The Thompson family also made it a rule that the penguins shouldn’t be fed because their numbers were growing a lot.So, when these penguins came to the market during migration as they did in the past, the officers used this opportunity to kill the penguins and then sell their meat.Ulmer’s clone just happened to be at that market, and he saw over a hundred penguins being killed mercilessly. Not just that, the officers were laughing while killing little penguins. It was heart-rending to watch.Ulmer’s clone did not step in to save the penguins because he didn’t want to risk giving his identity away.Though he saw some heinous things such as the human slaves being treated like trash by the wealthy people that lived in Frostlands, he had to act like he didn’t see it.Nevertheless, he kept

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 rule
“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. She’s not just beautiful but also smart. I think it’s
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
Minerva thought she could kidnap Ulmer’s family but now realized that she was the one who was tricked by him.He was already well prepared for her.And he wasn’t going to let her harm his family twice.However, now that Ulmer was looking up at her, both sadness and anger filled his eyes.What has become of his ex-girlfriend? Someone with whom he had gone shopping with? Someone who seemed so innocent and lovely when he first met her?Remembering the times when they both went to a jewelry shop, and she studded herself with all kinds of gold and acted like a royal made Ulmer laugh heartily back then.He thought he fell in love with the best girl there was.But look, what has become of her now?She was reduced to someone who would hypnotize a little girl in order to lure Ulmer’s relatives out of the house.Even though Ulmer was just standing, he felt his heart strings playing hard to the point they were hurting because he knew that the time was near.“U-Ulmer…” Minerva could feel his emot
The Drunken Disaster Dionysus, the Wild King Enkidu, the Snake-haired Perseus, the Moon Goddess Artemis, the Sun God Apollo, the War Goddess Ishtar, and the one standing in front of them all and more was the mighty, monstrous King of Heroes Gilgamesh who stood nearly six meters tall.Not one of them could be called anything less than a monster.They were all absolute powerhouses, who made a name for themselves around the world in their times.Some of their powers transcended common sense and logic.“How dare a mere artificial system holder stand in our path? 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
