Chapter: Chapter 857: Riff-Raff of the Eastern Sea.Lancelot shot through the skies like a golden meteor, the vast ocean below reflecting the warm, earthy glow of his magical energy. Even though they hovered hundreds of meters above the waves, his mana cast a shimmering radiance across the water as he pressed relentlessly eastward, holding the still-unconscious Zane tightly around his waist.His thoughts were locked on a single imperative: put as much distance as possible between themselves and the Dawn Reapers while simultaneously drawing closer to their official objective. Their designated destination in Avaloria still lay hundreds upon hundreds of kilometers away across the sea. At this moment, Lancelot had no idea that the mission was a completely fabricated trap, nor did he realize that Yuri was already hurtling through the sky at breakneck speed to catch up with them.!!!Suddenly, while moving at this exhilarating velocity, Lancelot’s senses flared!Swhooosh! Swhooosh! Swhooosh! Swhooosh!Five figures intercepted Lancelot out o

Chapter: Chapter 856: One:Seven.“Boss! Boss!”After a few minutes of high-speed flight across the air currents, Jidal finally arrived at the rocky, desolate island where Akuma had been blasted during the catastrophic explosion. From a distance, his sharp eyes locked onto the figure of Akuma sitting cross-legged atop a mound of shattered stone. Akuma’s upper, torn robes had been stripped away, exposing his muscular torso. His left arm was completely gone, and the raw, cauterized wound at his shoulder was tightly bound with thick bandages. He sat in total stillness, circulating his internal mana to stabilize his crippled origin.Jidal descended in a frantic blur, his heart pounding in his chest. Shock and horror filled his thoughts as he witnessed the horrific state of his leader, a man he had viewed as invincible for centuries.THUD!Jidal landed heavily beside Akuma Muramasa, the force of his arrival kicking up a spray of loose gravel.“Calm down, Jidal. You are a fully grown man, you cannot be shouting like a pan

Chapter: Chapter 855: Appointed: Venerable of the Core.As Yuri and Conri were having their conversation, elsewhere across the open expanse of the Eastern Sea, Jidal was moving rapidly through the air, battered, bruised, and drenched in sea spray. Unlike Akuma, he had not lost a limb, but his body bore numerous lacerations, and his dark traveling clothes were torn to shreds.“Thanks to the Nirvana Pagoda artifact I possessed, I managed to shield myself at the final second... yet the relic shattered into absolute nothingness from the sheer force,” Jidal thought as he trailed through the sky at high speed.He recalled frantically activating the defensive matrix of the Nirvana Pagoda in the very last moments before the catastrophic energy wave engulfed him, barely escaping with his life.“I wonder if the others are well... but I can sense faint, erratic energy waves belonging to the Boss. He must be in that direction,” he reasoned, adjusting his flight trajectory toward the subtle aura signature of Akuma Muramasa.“Who on earth would have bel

Chapter: Chapter 854: Lunarsilk Tea & The Death Scythe's Legacy.Yuri's gaze was wide in shock as he looked at Conri before him; he simply could not bring himself to believe what his eyes were seeing.“So this... this is Conri Bluemoon? This is the supreme leader of Lunaris, and the father of Zane and his brothers? How is he here, and why on earth is he here?!” Yuri thought, his mind reeling as more heavy beads of cold sweat danced from his temples down his pale face.As he sat frozen, the fine porcelain tea set resting on the stone table before them began to move entirely on its own. Neither Conri's hands nor any visible physical force touched the delicate teaware; driven purely by the invisible, divine intent of the Saint Realm master, the heavy teapot lifted weightlessly into the air. It tilted with absolute grace, pouring a steaming, fragrant stream of amber liquid into two fine cups without spilling a single drop.“This is one of the most cherished teas back in Lunaris, this is the Lunarsilk Tea,” Conri said, his voice entirely calm and smoot

Chapter: Chapter 853: The Clean Neck.Meanwhile far north, away from the epicenter...On another small, isolated island...Yuri sat quietly upon a weathered rock, gazing up at the scattered overcast clouds that were slowly drifting across the azure sky and clearing with each and every steady breath he drew. He maintained a calm, rhythmic breathing pattern to regulate his internal energy, his mana heart slowly stabilizing. A subtle, thin veil of his scorching crimson aura flickered lightly around his frame, insulating his body while his ragged robes and battered physical form bore numerous minor scrapes and bruises, yet, no major physical injuries remained.Phew...!He exhaled a deep, long breath after his careful meditation, his expression relaxing into one of quiet indifference.“I think this was ultimately the far better outcome than me having to slaughter them all,” he muttered softly to himself, reflecting back upon the catastrophic, world-shaking battle that had just transpired over the Eastern Sea.He glanced at hi

Chapter: Chapter 852: Divine Art of Destruction.Even Lancelot, who was moving east and was already dozens and dozens of kilometers away, was forced to pause and gaze back over his shoulder. From that vast distance, the gigantic, blinding sphere of the explosion generated by the collision of the two opposing forces was clearly visible against the dark horizon. The ocean waves erupted aggressively in every direction, surging outward like a massive, unstoppable avalanche of water and foam. Lancelot stood suspended above the waves in sheer shock, his heart pounding as he processed the staggering, apocalyptic scale of the destruction.About half an hour later...At the absolute epicenter of the clash, a colossal crater had been blasted directly into the middle of the sea, spanning several kilometers in all directions. The sky above hung quiet, but the area was no longer deserted. Cultivators had begun gathering at the site from all across the surrounding region, some who had been watching the high-tier battle from hidden spatial voids,

Chapter: Absolute resolve(2)Placing his hand on the stone, he envisioned the kampilan—a traditional Filipino weapon.Divine energy surged from his hand, wrapping around the ore as it began to shift and solidify, transforming into the weapon he had imagined.As it took form, he spoke with reverence,"I, Tiyaga, behold my weapon before the Creator Elohim and in the name of my Lord Ares. I name you Anito." The weapon shimmered as it fully awakened, a black blade with a lining of silver along its edge.The blade itself bore tiny white spots around the hilt, like stars against the night, and a short rope extended from the hilt, bearing the banner of Ares.Near the hilt, in delicate engraving, was the mark of Hephaestus, affirming its divine origin.The sight was mesmerizing—a weapon uniquely his, resonating with power and purpose, crafted through divine will.The weapon solidified in Rico's hand, gleaming with a faint, divine light that pulsed as if alive.Just as he marveled at Anito, a system display flashed befor

Chapter: Absolute resolve(1)As Rico's voice rang out, his sharp command snapped his subordinates out of hesitation."Not enough wits!" he shouted, his tone filled with fiery resolve."Come at me already! If you flinch, you die!" They were in the thick of day two, and Rico's group was already dripping with sweat, their clothes, freshly washed the night before, now torn and ragged.Despite the exhaustion on their faces, there was a newfound resilience in their eyes, a fierceness that hadn't been there before.Some among them had begun to manifest the Shield of Fortitude, only to have it shattered by Rico's relentless strikes.A few dodged one or two of his attacks, proving their growth, while others were learning to evade more frequently.Anyone watching might have mistaken this for a real battle, as each trainee faced off with genuine intensity, pushing themselves to keep up with their commanding officer.Rico's taunts only drove them harder, silencing any fleeting thoughts of undermining him.Those harboring ev

Chapter: Late at the party(2)Behind him, his subordinates, synchronized in movement, mirrored him, showing their deference and silently apologizing for their late arrival.The hall held its breath as the commanders nodded approvingly, acknowledging Rico's respectful gesture.The room, still silent, watched the display of respect, surprised by the discipline and unity they radiated.Rico's group had made a powerful entrance, one that would not be forgotten anytime soon.As Rico took his seat, Demetrius's sharp eyes observed him closely, a glimmer of intrigue flickering.Mmh…fascinating. I can still sense the faint residue of Holy Aura around him, he mused silently, his gaze assessing.Another commander across the hall noticed the same and exchanged a confirming nod with Demetrius,both struck by the rarity of what they were witnessing.For a novice-ranked warrior to wield Holy Aura was unheard of—it was a privilege reserved for high-ranking beings.Few possessed the strength and mastery to channel it, and for Rico

Chapter: Late at the party(1)Huff! Huff! Huff!The air was thick with the sound of heavy breathing, each member of Rico's squad gasping as they braced themselves against the relentless training.Hours had passed with no breaks, pushing each of them to the brink as Rico, now armed with his Holy Aura, had sparred them into exhaustion.Despite his rank of Warrior (Novice), Rico's strength far surpassed his title, and it showed.He stood amidst his battered, bruised subordinates, grinning as he took in the sight before him.The training uniforms on most of them were torn, ripped at the seams or stained with dirt and sweat.Some even bore visible bruises, reminders of the blows they'd taken.They looked like they had just returned from a real battle—but this was only sparring.Rico had found something profound here.He had been bullied on Earth, labeled a loser, but here, he felt respected, valued, and at peace—a priceless feeling.His memories might remind him of his past life, but the present offered something great

Chapter: Commander TiyagoA ding echoed in Rico's mind as his abilities settled into place.With his senses heightened by Battlefield Awareness, Rico watched as his subordinates hesitated before charging at him.He shifted into his stance, focusing on his Dance of the Evasive Wind and moving with fluid precision,sidestepping each strike with graceful, measured footwork.His reflexes felt sharp as he ducked a blow from Leonidas, spinning to deflect a kick from Callista with his arm, his grin never wavering."Come on! Is that all?" he taunted.Theron attempted a bold swing toward him, but Rico activated his Shield of Fortitude, absorbing the impact with ease.The divine energy around him seemed to pulse as the shield dissipated the blow, leaving him unfazed."Not bad, but let's see how you handle this."Rico's expression shifted to one of fierce determination as he activated Wrathful Strike Series,channeling his divine energy into a powerful attack, deliberately slowing his strike to test their reactions.His
