Crimson and Skyler wanted to choke Amber.

Despite the foul smell of the dark mage's soul, it contained a powerful energy within that could help them quickly grow stronger.

Perhaps it was just Amber who acted like that.

Having consumed souls, she was now picky, preferring the fragrant ones over the foul ones.

Crimson and Skyler were different.

They just needed to become stronger quickly, and they would devour any soul.

Arthur looked at them and asked again, "So, can you eat it?"

Amber disdainfully replied, "I am a Thlu with the power of a demon king within me. I could become the most powerful demon in the future. How could I possibly consume something as filthy as the soul of a dark mage?"

Crimson contemptuously laughed at Amber, and even Skyler said to Arthur, "Don't worry, dark mages are vile creatures. Even if you let us consume their souls, it's like cleansing evil instead of doing something wicked. It won't affect you."

Arthur raised an eyebrow slightly.

Seeing this, Skyler s

Otherwise, for someone like you who seeks dominance, your influence collapsing sooner or later is inevitable."Stanley yelled, "You old bastard!

    Arthur finished his coffee in one gulp, then stood up to settle the bill. Just now, Mrs. William and Jacob had hurriedly left, not even paying for their drinks before running off. Well, consider that their farewell fee.He had intended to make those two realize their wrongs, but Jessica's reaction was even more intense than his. She didn't give them a chance to justify themselves."She has truly matured," Arthur thought silently, then left.Outside, in Jessica's private car, Jacob discreetly glanced at his mother, signaling her to speak quickly.Mrs. William took a sip of water, hesitatingly saying, "Jessica, can you please not be angry anymore? We're only thinking about your future."Jessica silently sneered. Thinking for her? Mrs. William's actions were no different from selling her daughter from the past to the present. She truly wasn't deserving of being called a proper mother.Thinking of everything that had happened, a bold thought suddenly popped into Jessica's mind.Mrs.

    Will, infuriated, smashed the ancient porcelain vase on his desk, shattering it into pieces. On the floor, remnants of other objects lay scattered, all thrown by Will in his rage. He roared angrily, "A bunch of traitors! They dare to disrespect us before the company even changes ownership!"His assistant stood to the side, silent, not daring to speak.During the recent board of directors meeting, many expressed that Will should resign as the company's president. Due to Arthur's current status, many of the board members had sold their shares to Arthur under the pressure of power and the allure of money. Overnight, Arthur had gained more shares than Will, further fueled by Arthur's talents.Many shareholders eagerly anticipated the company's resurgence under Arthur's leadership. Those who held such views were seasoned shareholders who had worked with the company for a long time. They were staying because they hoped Arthur would return and restore the company to its former glory.

    Seeing Arthur continue to walk ahead, Lance quickly followed suit. Arthur approached the gate of the orphanage. The gate was locked at this moment, and he couldn't use force to get inside. Inside the gate was a scene just as desolate as the outside. No children were running around or playing. If it weren't for a few windows lit up with light, one might think this place was just an abandoned area. A hoarse and elderly voice suddenly sounded, "What are you all doing here?!" Although the voice sounded exceedingly old, one could still hear the wariness and anger within it. Arthur shifted his gaze and saw an old man emerging from a small forest within the orphanage. The old man held a small basket filled with mushrooms in his hands. It wasn't hard to guess that he had just returned from mushroom picking. However, it seemed he hadn't harvested much. Seeing Arthur looking over, the old man appeared somewhat taken aback. Perhaps he realized that his earlier tone had been overly s

    Raymond glanced at Lumie with suspicion, "How can you help me? You don't know anything about Jessica." Lumie smiled gently and tenderly, "I know that Jessica's success today is thanks to you. You've always desired her but haven't won her heart. Now that her beloved is back, aren't you afraid and anxious?" How could Raymond not feel anxious? He was burning with anxiety! However, with Arthur's current status, he couldn't do anything. He even worried that Arthur might discover his involvement in the events of that year. Raymond furrowed his brows as he looked at Lumie, "Why are you suddenly bringing this up? Are you willing to let me be with Jessica?" Lumie sweetly leaned against Raymond's chest, "I love you. As long as you're happy, I'll be happy too." Raymond smiled contentedly, stroking Lumie's pale hair, and said, "Alright, what do you have in mind?" Unbeknownst to Raymond, Lumie narrowed her eyes and smiled maliciously, "Power and wealth are the two easiest things to contro

    Arthur glanced at the timid-looking children. He didn't linger for anything and walked directly towards the forest. Lance followed him, seemingly perplexed. He couldn't help but ask, "Do you find anything suspicious about this place?"Arthur nodded, "The differences among these children are too significant."They walked straight into the forest until they reached a tall wall. Arthur guessed that this wall enclosed the entire orphanage. Beyond the wall was a dense forest that made it hard to imagine that the orphanage was enclosed in such a manner.As Arthur strolled, a sharp voice pierced through, "What are you people doing here?"Arthur turned around and saw the old man from yesterday, Stall, leaning to the side, observing them warily. Arthur smiled at him and replied, "The headmaster permitted us to visit. Is there a problem?"Stall squinted at them and eventually remained silent before walking away. Lance looked at Arthur and commented, "He truly is peculiar."Arthur agreed

    Hearing the old man's question, Mr. and Mrs. Smith became rigid. This old man was a magician. He said that because of a sentence, Mr. and Mrs. Smith adopted Arthur back then. This magician promised to adopt Arthur to help them gain more wealth than others. However, the primary condition was to ensure that Arthur couldn't rise and couldn't become someone successful... Mr. Smith trembled and said, "We tried... We even denied him a good place to live, we didn't let him study at prestigious schools... but he still grew up, matured..." With every word Mr. Smith spoke, the atmosphere in the room seemed to grow colder, and finally, his voice grew smaller and smaller until he couldn't say anything more. The voice of the mysterious magician became somewhat resentful, "Truly useless." Mr. Smith hurriedly spoke, "We harmed him to the point of imprisoning him, making him lose everything, but now he's back. He not only didn't become insignificant, but he also rose once again!

    In this world, various elemental powers exist, which are divided into five main groups: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.Within these primary groups are countless sub-branches, each producing infinite and unpredictable amounts of energy. These elements serve as the awakening and self-development of a mage's power, called magic.However, over ten thousand years ago, magic suddenly vanished, causing the strength of these elemental powers to weaken, rendering mages unable to progress. Their magic gradually waned with time. The age of science and technology arrived, and those mages who couldn't adapt were cast aside. Some couldn't accept this reality and turned into dark mages, using the blood and flesh of others to achieve their goals. This era was one of extreme chaos. It wasn't until five hundred years later that a semblance of stability was restored, bringing a temporary peace that persists to this day.At present, if there are still mages, most of them are dark mages.Ordin

    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

    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.
