The low, resonant sound carried a hint of Asser's laughter as he explained that this place was where the Demonkin tribe hid their treasures.

However, he had no intention of allowing everyone to enter.

He looked at Arthur and the others, saying with a smile, "Unfortunately, only Arthur can accompany me inside. The rest need not bother."

Zero frowned at this, but before he could say anything, Arthur spoke, "Wait for me outside."

Zero and Michael could only remain silent.

Asser added, "Finn, treat our guests well."

Finn, the old man standing beside Asser, nodded in acknowledgment and assured, "I won't disappoint them."

With that said, they could say nothing more.

Arthur had no objections and followed Asser into the dark room.

As soon as Arthur set foot inside, a loud sound echoed, and the door closed behind him.

The faint light from outside disappeared entirely, leaving the room in complete darkness.

The room plunged into blackness, resembling a pitch-black night.

Arthur felt the

    Arthur attentively listened as Asser recounted the stories he knew. Asser continued slowly, "In fact, the deep explosion a hundred thousand years ago is related to the beastfolk race. The beastfolk planned to dominate the entire continent, first by overthrowing all other non-human races. However, they probably couldn't anticipate that you would intervene to seal the abyss again, even at the cost of sacrificing your own soul. So, they came up with a different plan, a plan that would make you lose all your power along with the preparations for the resurgence of the abyss."Upon hearing this, Arthur couldn't help but furrow his brows. "So, the beastfolk collaborated with the abyss?"Asser nodded. "Exactly. I also heard that the beastfolk even assisted the abyss in expanding and upheaving the power balance within the Shadow World, causing high-level shadow creatures to fall into a deep sleep or be expelled. That's also the reason why the low-level shadow creatures can now awaken at such

    Arthur wondered if he was still dreaming or if he had awakened. At that moment, a cold wind swept over him, causing Arthur to shudder. The chilling, icy voice echoed in his ears, "You've discovered something, haven't you? Indeed, if it's me, you can't be clueless."Arthur narrowed his eyebrows, slowly turning his head back, speaking in a deep voice, "I am not anyone else. I am just myself. And you, what exactly are you?"The slimy black figure emitted a chilling laughter. The figure spoke lightly, "I've already said it. Let's just wait until the day of convergence."Arthur rolled his eyes, pondering the true intentions behind the words of this dark figure. Aside from the serious tone, he calmly said, "I won't let you have that chance."The dark figure chuckled lightly, saying, "Oh, give it a try. But you must know yourself better than anyone, right? You will never lose, and I am just a part of you. Do you think I will lose?"Arthur wore an unpleasant expression but remained silent

    Arthur's sword shimmered under the dark sky, and even the demonkin, upon seeing the radiant blade, couldn't help but retreat. The Moonless sword swept away all shadows.Demonkin could be considered high-level shadow creatures, and facing the hellfire, their instinctive fear ran deep. Arthur, with a cold expression, swiftly dispatched the lower-level shadow creatures. Some didn't even manage to crawl out of the abyss before being incinerated by his flames. His fire even reached the depths, causing ominous sounds to emanate as a warning.Arthur's aura spread to those around him. Asser raised his sword and loudly commanded, "Kill!" Almost immediately, the entire army rushed forward.Simultaneously, the low-level shadow creatures emerging from the abyss accelerated their pace. They surged madly, using darkness to bite and devour their opponents, creating a scene of brutality and horror.Yet, those facing them did not flinch. If they retreated, the entire demonkin race might face th

    The group led by Zero and Michael returned. Asser still seemed a bit puzzled, but seeing Zero appear calm, he quickly regained his composure.He instructed his subordinates to stabilize the morale of the army before leading them back.Meanwhile, Zero and Michael flew through the air. In reality, Zero was still a bit uneasy, even wanting to turn around and look at the abyss once more. However, he knew he couldn't; stabilizing Michael was already challenging, and he couldn't afford to show any signs of panic.He thought about Arthur's orders, his gaze solemn and cold, unable to dispel the lingering worry. However, as one of Arthur's trusted subordinates, he could only choose to trust him.At this moment, Michael's low and icy voice suddenly sounded, "Alright, speak. What are the master's orders?"Michael was calmer now, but there was still lingering concern in his heart. Although he knew that Zero only wanted the best for him, he couldn't completely control his dissatisfaction.Zer

  • Unparalleled Arthur: Return From The Pinnacle   Chapter 227: Nicholas the Foolish

    Scene in the territory of the Beastfolk is somewhat close to nature. The giant trees have long disappeared from the human territories. There are even some mushroom trees that are as tall as half a person, appearing incredibly magical. The animals in this area are also particularly large and dangerous, but ultimately, they can only become a delicacy in the mouths of powerful Beastfolk.Nicholas stepped quickly, finally stopping at a large palace above the clouds. He could only fly up. The leader of the Beastfolk is of the bird species, so the palace is high above. Unlike other tribes that allow the nurturing of leaders, the leader of the Beastfolk can be replaced at any time. As long as you are strong enough, smart enough, and can defeat the current leader, you will become the leader. However, for hundreds of thousands of years, no one has been able to defeat the current leader, and even those who tried were defeated and punished severely.Gradually, the Beastfolk spread the wo

    In the vast meeting room, only the deafening scream of Nicholas remained.From today onward, his wishes will be fulfilled, as he becomes a part of the Beastfolk clan.The surrounding Beastfolk laughed heartily, considering the lives of humans as mere trash, not worthy of their concern.Turning back the clock to the day before, Arthur fell into the deep abyss.In reality, Arthur had no plan at that moment; everything seemed unintentional. He didn't even know if he could return, and he certainly didn't expect Zero to interpret his words as the "master having a plan".At that time, Arthur felt an immense gravitational force from the deep abyss calling out to him crazily.Unanswered, it sought to pull him directly down. However, how could Arthur actually descend into the deep abyss? No one could survive jumping into a chasm that hadn't even been born yet.He wanted to use his abilities to escape, but he realized that his magic seemed to be sealed once again. He sensed his mental world

    "What are you, in the end?" Arthur asked in a low voice.The battle had been ongoing for over thirty minutes. Neither side yielded, and neither was significantly weaker than the other; it was truly an evenly matched struggle. Both had sustained numerous injuries.The black entity's body was torn in many places, with burn marks where Arthur's flames had grazed it. Clearly, the pain was intense, and its speed had noticeably slowed. Arthur was not in much better condition, with fresh blood soaking his body and a large wound on his chest. If he hadn't constantly urged his healing magic on that spot, he might have bled to death long ago.Upon hearing Arthur's question, the black entity's face turned slightly solemn. It sneered, "I'm just a part you discarded long ago."Having said that, it resumed its attack. However, at that moment, the ground suddenly trembled, causing the black entity's strike to deviate. Arthur, too, couldn't avoid being affected by the ground's disturbance, sw

    In no time, Lance arrived at the office, accompanied by Brand. On the way, he had heard Lucia explain a few things. Zero had returned without Michael or Arthur. While Michael wasn't of much concern to him, it was odd for Zero to return alone without Arthur, unless there were unavoidable circumstances forcing him to return alone. Thinking of this, Lance's expression became more somber.Brand, too, was aware that the situation was not simple. His face no longer bore the playful, nonchalant expression he used to have around Arthur. His eyebrows furrowed, and his face turned cold as if a storm was approaching.Soon, they reached the office. Zero wasn't surprised to see Brand accompanying Lance. After all, in this lifetime, Brand was Arthur's grandfather in name.Zero nodded slightly as a greeting to Brand and then said, "Everyone, please take a seat. This is not some high-level meeting."In front of them was a tea table, modified into a working table, covered with stacked papers.

    Arthur rolled his eyes, looking coldly at the abyss being consumed by the flames.When he saw that the tearful pleas were in vain, in the final moments, all that remained from the abyss's mouth were curses.But Arthur paid no attention; this time, the abyss had to die and, furthermore, die in an entirely new way.The abyss's body quickly turned into dust, but Arthur's flames didn't stop.This was because there was still a dark mist writhing madly there—this was the true nature of the abyss.Finally, Arthur stood, watching the flames burning vigorously for almost thirty minutes.By now, the abyss had completely perished.Arthur wasn't faring much better; he had almost lost his life.His face was as pale as paper, and his lips lacked any trace of color.The scenery in front of him seemed to tilt continuously.Arthur took a deep breath, quickly stabilizing himself, and his serious gaze looked fo

    In the final moment, even the abyss didn't fully comprehend what had happened. As soon as the child finished speaking, a tremendous surge of energy enveloped the supervisor's entire body. By now, the supervisor's body was covered in Arthur's blood.The energy erupted, flames engulfing the supervisor's body, causing unimaginable pain. The abyss howled in agony, the sound and force of the supervisor being so intense that cracks began to appear in the ground above them as if it could collapse at any moment.Arthur, pinned by the spikes on the supervisor's body, couldn't escape. The frenzied abyss ran amok, trying to extinguish the flames, causing Arthur's body to shake along with the chaos. Arthur furrowed his brow slightly, unable to do anything more.He didn't even feel the fire burning him; no heat, no pain. This fire was undoubtedly his ally. Arthur thought to himself.Amidst the incessant screams of the abyss, the earth above them began to crumble. Arthur opened his eyes wide

    This crack itself didn't know it, but at this point, it had become a deep abyss.The abyss seemed to be doing everything possible to kill Arthur. It frantically dug through its own memories and cracks, searching for Arthur's existence in the past. It aimed to exploit this information to devise a plan to kill Arthur more easily.Unexpectedly, it succeeded in finding what it sought. In the past, when Arthur was three years old and still in the Sunny orphanage, he had a genuine encounter with the abyss.Seizing this opportunity, the abyss immediately used most of its power to manipulate time. However, its power wasn't enough to reverse time entirely. Moreover, to carry out such powerful actions, the abyss had to endure a considerable toll on its own realm.At this moment, the abyss had no memories, but it was genuinely stronger than Arthur, a mere child. It felt confident that it wouldn't lose. As soon as Arthur appeared, it believed it could easily crush him, very gently.But the

    Arthur was lifted by the neck by the manager. Even though he struggled frantically, there was no way to escape, and it only made his body more painful.The manager, with his eyes gleaming bright red, looked at Arthur and said in a deep voice, "If you want to live, shut up!"Arthur could feel that the manager was different at this moment as if something had changed deep within him.This change made him appear more frightening, more audacious.Arthur pursed his lips, not daring to say a word.The manager seemed pleased with Arthur's silence. He smirked, then threw Arthur into the pit before him.As he approached, the foul smell intensified. Witnessing the scene in front of him, Arthur couldn't hold back his nausea.Seeing Arthur's expression, the manager sneered, "You've tasted it before, disgusting, isn't it? Ha ha, would you like to have more now?"Arthur's face turned pale, frozen, and he dared not make any other movements.The manager, satisfied with Arthur's fearful appearance,

    Arthur's trembling demeanor, in the eyes of the manager, appeared to be weakened to the point of imminent death. Instantly, the manager's eyebrows furrowed, but his spoken words seemed oddly gentle. He approached, took hold of Arthur, and then looked towards Emma, smiling as he said, "Alright, I'll take care of this little one; you may go."In reality, the manager wasn't particularly patient, nor was he a gentle person. However, when dealing with potential "harvestable" products, he was always required to be careful. After all, he was the one raising these children, knowing what they needed to grow up.Hearing this, Emma happily left without any worries. Arthur could only stare as Emma walked away, mouth agape, wanting to speak but finding himself unable to.This made Arthur involuntarily furrow his brows. He also sensed the formidable aura of the man. It seemed as though he wasn't holding a child's hand but rather trying to break a branch.As soon as Emma left, the manager nar

    Creating such a large space gate naturally consumes a great deal of power, but Benjamin doesn't even frown at it. His subordinates have arrived, a group of mermen with perfect appearances. Despite their aquatic nature, they firmly plant their feet on the ground, displaying incredible flexibility in movement, and without much talk, they join the battle.However, cracks appear in different races but manifest on the human battlefield. At this point, it's not just a matter of numerical difference; humans and others are truly overwhelmed to the point of breathlessness. Other races take more time to arrive, and at this moment, they must resist until assistance arrives.Meanwhile, Arthur below isn't faring much better. Almost as soon as he senses the spatial shift, Arthur knows what the abyss intends to do. So, for the first time in this life, he uses his privilege, broadcasting a summon to all non-human species on the continent, ordering them to send half of their armies to the human

    The body in front of Arthur shattered into pieces, with fragments of flesh and skin shooting towards Arthur, but they couldn't completely reach him as his shield blocked them.Expressionless, Arthur retracted his sword, coldly saying, "Fake again, too troublesome."Indeed, it was another fake; it wasn't a real abyss. However, Arthur could sense the power that had approached his body closely in the recent encounter. Perhaps that was a significant part of the abyss, similar to a detached limb.It could be that the abyss was dying, but it quickly transferred its energy to another body to continue its existence. Arthur thought itwas not entirely wrong; the recent encounter was not a genuine abyss, but it was still a significant part of the abyss.The abyss was now hiding in a corner within the darkness, with blood-red eyes dripping with fresh blood. At this moment, the figure became increasingly frail and uncontrollable, with blood gushing out wildly.Despite this, the figure was rec

    The colossal dark arrow collided with the sphere of sharp spikes, immediately creating a tremendous explosion of energy. The ground kept trembling, sharp fragments scattered everywhere, and the shockwave from the explosion alone could be lethal to an ordinary person.In the silent space, after a while, the sound of footsteps echoed, accompanied by heavy, triumphant breathing.The giant figure of the abyss approached the debris field. At this moment, the figure had undergone a massive transformation. Anyone who saw him now would likely struggle to hold back their nausea.The figure's body remained large, but the flesh seemed to melt, sagging to the ground as the figure was dragged along.The melted flesh revealed the grotesque skeleton beneath, with a back covered in sharp spikes, long arms reaching down to the legs, and twisted, bizarrely shaped feet.Especially disturbing was the figure's face, as the skeletal structure appeared incomplete, with half of the head shattered, exposin

    At this moment, Arthur truly resembled a person of fire, flames roaring on his body, incinerating all the creatures around him.Beneath a chaotic crack, the screams reverberated, causing excruciating pain to anyone's ears. Arthur, however, seemed oblivious to it all.He swung his sword against the frenzied spikes attacking him. Yet, these spikes seemed to have received some commanding order as they recklessly lunged toward Arthur, unaffected by the hellfire that engulfed them.One after another, spikes hurled themselves at him, seemingly endless. The abyssal realm beneath was evidently dissatisfied with his fiery onslaught, desiring to pull him down as swiftly as possible.Moreover, these spikes were numerous and seemingly fearless of death. Eventually, Arthur's flames revealed a gap.Seizing the opportunity, a spike swiftly maneuvered, grabbing hold of Arthur's ankle and aggressively pulling him down. However, another spike was quickly sliced into pieces, and many others were co
