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
In the Forgotten Dunes.Ulmer’s fourth clone fought giant monsters like the mountain worms that were capable of drilling holes through mountains and turning them into powder within days. There were poison lizards that had a nasty appetite and would eat anything that moved. There were scorpions, black foxes, blue birds, and all kinds of crazy dangerous creatures in that place, where he couldn’t find a single human soul. But the ones that troubled him the most were the sand serpents, for they were quite fast and could also spray poison into the air and attack from a distance. Every beast was poisonous to some degree. And sometimes, the poison entered his body.Ulmer had multiple ways to stop the poison from spreading. Sometimes, he used aura to forcibly release it through sweat. Sometimes, he evaporated it with his flames and released it through his breath. Sometimes, he used his ice ability to slow down the poison from spreading and also its potency.Nevertheless, it proved to be a ha
In Stormville.Ulmer’s clone took multiple days to get here because of the extremely tight security in the form of flying robots that were guarding the entrance. On top of that, there was a barrier that did not allow him to use his ability to just open a portal inside the region.Stormsville was said to be much more guarded than even the capital city because not only the first daughter of the emperor lived there, but also the ancient device that concealed the entire Syslon from the outside world.Ulmer was not here for that device but something else entirely.It was the stone of the magic staff that the emperor’s daughter had in possession.Ulmer’s clone had to wait until midnight to sneak into her room.The first daughter of the emperor was a big woman who was snoring loud enough to scare any man into running away from her.Her staff was right next to her bed.“So that’s the storm stone you were talking about…” Ulmer uttered.[Yeah. It has the power to control weather at will.] Dove
