The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 84
Ulmer and Zebron’s gazes met.“So, you’re one of the lions of Syslon, huh,” Ulmer uttered after Dove had clarified to him about who the Ten Lions of Syslon were.“I didn’t think you were an outsider, but it makes sense now,” Zebron said. “You probably used some kind of cheap trick to defeat my son, right?”Ulmer smiled and said, “Why don’t you ask your son about that?”Rever’s shoulders jerked. He was the referee of the match, so he was also standing on the stage. “L-Let’s not talk about the past. Let’s look into the future. That’s what matters.”His words made Mirianne chuckle.“There’s no need for a serious fight,” Edward said. “But do try to put on a show since my beloved wife is watching.”Edward’s wife loved how her husband was respecting her. “Whoever wins, I’ll give them a gift,” she said.“I definitely can’t lose then,” Zebron said.“Winning and losing is not just up to you to decide,” Ulmer stepped forward. “It depends on who your opponent is. Since I am your opponent, you ha

“He has a healing skill, too?” Edward smiled. “The way he used it is weird, but he sure is full of surprises. I wonder what exact system he owns.”“It doesn’t matter what system he owns,” Zebron said and took a big step forward. His sword started vibrating faintly. “His loss is inevitable.” He thrust and swirled the sword at the same time. “Dragon Thrust!”Ulmer also thrust his palm forth.Both of their attacks collided, and in that brief moment, both Rever and Edward knew ho devastating the impact would be, so they quickly moved to protect their people. BANG~~!!A tremendous shockwave burst forth in every direction, ripping apart the stone stage under their feet and blowing the chairs and benches away along with the maids. Even the trees in the distance got uprooted and fell to the side.Mirianne, however, did not get blown away because Rever shielded her. And Edward also covered his wife. The other knights quickly moved to help the maids and the butlers.It wasn’t just a single shoc
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 86
Ulmer spent the next couple of days in Edward’s estate doing nothing much other than meditating and relaxing himself.To most people, that’s what it looked like.However, in truth, Ulmer was practicing and mastering all of his new skills in his mind. And Dove helped him with that.Nobody bothered him because he told them not to. He didn’t even eat food or drink water, for that matter.And then, he stepped out of his room on the day before the Noble Games.The entire Foster family were already leaving for the Games, and he joined them, wearing simple clothing.Even the maids and butlers were wearing pretty attire, but Ulmer was not.“So, how many people will be participating?” Ulmer asked Edward.“In hundreds,” he replied.“Will it be a one-staged battle royale, or… will there be multiple rounds?” Ulmer asked.“Well, who doesn’t like some drama?” Edward said. “The initial rounds will weed out the weak and worthless. The later rounds are where the fun begins.”“Many noble children also
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 87
The Noble Games had just begun as the Foster family arrived there.It wasn’t that long of a journey as these games were happening in the capital city itself, albeit in a closed off grounds, where the commoners were not allowed entrance, unless they were accompanying the nobles.Inside the Noble Game Grounds, which were hundreds of acres wide, it looked like a festival. There were lots of stores open and selling many things, and there were challenge shops where nobles could participate and earn points.There were already hundreds of young nobles taking written tests to prove themselves in literature, history, and other things.The beautiful thing about these Noble Games was that even the participants' families could chip in by earning points.Edward participated in throwing needles and shooting the rising balloons. He earned forty points by shooting four balloons at a time. He used four needles to achieve that.These points could be used by Edward in other stores to buy food, or he cou
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 88
The Foster family, like every other noble family, had reached the Royal Quarters, where the royal family members were staying so that they could greet them.It was like a mini court inside, where the emperor and his family were all sitting in their respective seats.The maids and butlers stayed outside while the Foster family entered. Mirianne brought Ulmer along with her.Edward and others kept their heads lowered as they entered, and they kneeled before the emperor. Ulmer also kneeled, though a bit late.“Why is he wearing a mask?” Neodus asked. He was the son of the emperor.“Let him be,” the emperor, Dylan Vikil Craig, stated. He was an old man in his hundreds. “Do not disrespect the guest of the Foster family.”“Y-Yes, Father,” Neodus didn’t like it, but he couldn’t talk back to his father, the emperor.“Your Majesty,” Edward’s wife voiced her mind, “regarding my daughter’s marriage with your grandson…”“Mm…” Dylan looked at Vincent who remained silent. “I’m not God to know what’
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 89
Dylan’s gaze shifted over to Ulmer. “What is your name, Son?”Everyone was surprised that he called a stranger a ‘son.’What was Ulmer supposed to say now? He wouldn’t lie, but if he were to give an answer, he’d be giving his identity away to Brianna, and he didn’t want to do that just yet.Ulmer lifted his head and looked at the emperor whose level he could see. It was level 99. But there was a question mark next to his level as if suggesting that he was not at full health or something.“The Emperor is asking you a question,” Neodus said. “Why aren't you answering? Did your head grow heavier because you managed to get a wild card for the competition?”Vincent’s gaze also turned sharp. His mother quickly said, “No matter how many people participate, it’ll be my son who’s winning it.”“My name is…” Ulmer said, “Knight Beater.”A brief silence followed.Nobody liked his response, but then the emperor suddenly started laughing. “Hahaha,” he almost shed a tear from laughing so much.Nobod
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 90
As Ulmer left with the Foster family, Brianna was looking at Ulmer. (Is it just my imagination, or why does he give off a familiar feeling?)Ulmer briefly glanced toward her. When his gaze met with her’s, she felt something stirring in her heart, which made her hand touch her chest.Vincent noticed that. (This bastard… Is he trying to mess with my woman?) He clenched his fists. (I will crush you in the competition.)Vincent’s mom took him to a separate room. Neodus also entered the room. They gave him multiple systems to temporarily boost his level as well as his skills. This wasn’t against the rules in the competition because one would not be able to use any system unless they were accepted by the system. However, compared to the nobles, the systems that the royals had were of another level, so this improved the chances of Vincent reaching the final round very much.“Win the games, and then claim the prize as well as the princess,” Neodus told him. “Then my dad will have no choice bu
The Rise of the Urban God CHAPTER 91
Within two minutes, a spare metal block was brought over and was installed firmly into the holes in the ground so that it wouldn’t budge.This time, the block was bigger, so many people began to complain. However, the event manager told everyone that the density of the block was still the same. Still and all, some people kept hissing and complaining.It was Ulmer’s turn now.Brianna had already left, and even the Foster family had also left. They probably expected him to easily win this round.“Are you watching?” Ulmer asked.“Yes,” Ayana and others from his family replied.Ulmer was using the light stone to send the data of whatever he was seeing. This data was projected on the house wall with the help of the clone’s eyes.“It feels like I’m the one participating in the games,” Suki excitedly said. “Break that big rock into two pieces, Brother!”Kale also clapped in excitement. Dustin and Robin were in the background, looking nervous.“Here I go. This one’s for Suki,” Ulmer punched t

EPILOGUE
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

CHAPTER 479
“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

CHAPTER 478
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

CHAPTER 476
“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

CHAPTER 475
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

CHAPTER 474
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

CHAPTER 473
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
