last update2025-06-02 19:05:52

In the days that followed the Blood Roses’ silent conquest of Galecrest, Oasis moved with cunning precision.

He began circulating through the city’s merchant district, holding private discussions with both humble shopkeepers and powerful trade guild leaders.

His pitch was simple but effective: "War is on the wind. Galecrest must be protected."

With 50,000 gold coins at his disposal, Oasis funded a sweeping recruitment initiative under the guise of civic defense.

Mercenaries and independent guards were brought in from nearby regions—grim-faced wanderers, seasoned adventurers, former soldiers—and stationed along the outer walls and main arteries of the city.

But what the merchants didn’t know was this: every replacement allowed Oasis to quietly withdraw the Blood Roses.

Within two days, the innward district became their stronghold.

Of the 1000s Blood Roses stationed in Galecrest, nearly all now resided in that central area in the Innwards region.

A skeletal crew remained on patrol, blen

  • Chapter 255: Springfield - Oasis vs Karn(3).

    Karn katana traced afterimages of blazing arcs in the air, each step shattering patches of grass and sending up bursts of pressure in his wake.But ahead of him, Oasis remained still.Completely still.Not a twitch, not a shift in posture—just the boy with black tousled hair and unreadable azure eyes, standing there as if Karn’s approach was no more threatening than the morning breeze.“Knowing this kid, that was not just talk… he’s holding back.” Karn’s teeth clenched as his body cut through the field with terrifying speed, wind flaring around his crimson aura like a screaming storm.“He’s doing it on purpose. I need to stay calm,” Karn told himself, jaw tense. “The moment I lose rationality against someone like him, my head will roll.”His mind raced, spinning with possibilities. “If things get too dangerous, I can take to the skies… unless…”A terrible realization cracked through his thoughts.“He’s a phoenix.” Karn’s eyes narrowed slightly as his aura flickered. “And yet… he’s nev

  • Chapter 254: Springfield - Oasis vs Karn(2).

    Karn Ironclad unsheathed his katana.The moment the blade left its scabbard, a sharp gleam cut through the morning sun—a silver arc of metal so polished it looked like starlight made solid.As he raised it, crimson aura spilled from the edge like ink in water, rippling violently and lashing out toward the cyan blaze that roared around Oasis Volacris.The clashing auras carved grooves in the air, pressure trembling between them, threatening to collapse."Fascinating... a martial aura of an Awakened is playing tag with an Enlightened’s."The murmurs began, quiet and awed, spreading through the ranks of both armies.Suddenly, Oasis moved.Without wasting a second, he shot forward like a cyan blur, cutting through the space between them.CLING!The sharp clang of metal echoed across the plains as Rudra, his azure blade, met Kurishimi, Karn’s silver katana.Sparks flew. The wetlands quaked.A shockwave erupted from the clash—an invisible quake that vaporized shallow water in an instant.Mu

  • Chapter 253: Springfield - Oasis vs Karn(1).

    The sun had already climbed the horizon, casting a soft amber glow on two figures stepping forward—one from Lunaris , one from the Kingdom of Ironhold , both brought to Verdantia by war and grudges.No birds sang. No blades clashed. Only wind stirred… choked and thin under the pressure of two opposing auras.Karn and Oasis stood at the center of the plain, a narrow gulf of wet earth separating them.The air between them warped faintly, trembling under the weight of their spiritual presence.Their auras were restrained—barely—but even so, they pressed outward like giants lying in wait.Armies on both sides watched in reverent silence, anticipation clenching every chest like a vice.Karn’s expression was unreadable as he slowly reached behind his head and untied the cord that bound his long black hair.It fell past his shoulders like a curtain of shadow, rippling faintly under the invisible pressure of his aura.“So it’s already time… to finish what we started,” Karn said coolly, his vo

  • Chapter 252: Springfield - Duel .

    The battlefield was a vast, open plain of wetlands, soaked with dew and misty vapors from the dawn that had just passed.The rising sun cast golden hues through the thin fog, reflecting off the shimmering wet grass that carpeted the terrain between the two armies.Despite the presence of hundreds of thousands of cultivators, a heavy silence hung over the field.On either side, formations were set with precise discipline—lines upon lines of warriors ready for war, yet none had moved.No sword drawn. No technique unleashed. Only silence, a breath held before the storm.The air trembled with restrained tension, as if even the wind dared not cross the dividing plain that separated Verdantia's defenders from the invading forces.Birds circled overhead, wary and quiet. The faint scent of rot and iron wafted through the air, remnants of skirmishes past.At the Invaders' SideNear the command line of the invaders' camp, Varian held a long, engraved artifact shaped like a telescope.As he pre

  • Chapter 251: Springfield - Midnight warning.

    Verdantia Camp, MidnightThe camp was quiet, save for the soft crackle of distant torches and the occasional rustle of tents under the wind’s breath.Near the edge of the ridge overlooking the vast, swampy lowlands where the invaders’ forces had set up their banners, a lone figure sat calmly atop a perfectly round stone pillar, about a meter high, sculpted from the earth itself.Oasis, clad in his flowing dark robes, stared into the horizon with a tranquil expression, as though trying to see beyond the veil of night and war.His azure eyes shimmered faintly like twin flames, watching the flickering enemy fires in the distance.From behind him, a familiar voice called out, laced with teasing warmth."So you don’t even greet your senior sister here?"Oasis didn’t turn.With a casual lift of his arm, the ground beside him responded to his will—another identical stone pillar emerged from the soil, as if summoned by a silent command."Sit here," he said, voice calm.The woman stepped forwa

  • Chapter 250: Springfield - Compromise.

    In the heart of the invaders' camp, a surge of morale swept through the tents like wildfire.Word spread fast, from the elite encampments to the grunt barracks—Draco Ignis had been crippled.The news, sent through encrypted seals and whispered tongues, originated from Jovial Shadowfen himself.Grins cracked through grimy, bloodstained faces; laughter erupted among ranks too tired to dream.One of Verdantia’s pillars had fallen.But while the lowborn soldiers celebrated around flickering pyres, a very different atmosphere gripped the central war tent.The massive tent stood like a bastion of dread.Reinforced with beasthide and shadowsteel ribs, it pulsed faintly with demonic sigils.Within, the most dangerous men and women of the Stormcaller family, Shadowfen family, and Ironhold Kingdom and others had gathered around a war table engraved with runes of conquest.Jovial Shadowfen, a cloaked in fear and reverence, stood at the head of the table.His dark violet eyes were like frostbitte
