“Mistress, the young master has already begun the summoning ritual,” Franca reported, her voice wavering with a mixture of concern and hope.Vivian leaned back against the polished obsidian balcony rail, the rising sun painting her platinum hair in hues of rose gold. “You mean the ritual in his classroom?”“Yes, Mistress Vivian. Right now. Should I watch over him discreetly?”Vivian’s pale violet eyes closed briefly

Chapter 421: Echoes Beneath the Mask
Chapter 421: Echoes Beneath the MaskAfter finishing their discussion with the auction house manager and settling every important detail regarding their investigation, Ryan and Alavenya decided there was no reason to wander around the city any longer. The manager needed time to gather information, verify rumors, and sort through the countless reports flowing through the marketplace network.Until then, rushing around would only waste energy.At least, that was Ryan's reasoning.Unfortunately, during the walk toward the inn, he discovered something far more interesting than the investigation.Alavenya's appetite.Crunch.Crunch.Crunch.The sound followed them almost the entire way.Ryan turned his head and stared.The silver-haired dragon girl was casually chewing through yet another fruit while scanning the nearby stalls with frightening concentration.Her expression loo
Chapter 419: Veil of Preparation
Chapter 419: Veil of Preparation The afternoon breeze drifted across the academy grounds as Ryan stood near the dormitory district with a folded mission sheet tucked beneath his arm. Since their previous duel had ended with her defeat, Alavenya had been moved back into the regular dormitory building. Because of that, the two of them ended up meeting in front of the entrance rather than inside one of the training facilities. The moment she arrived, Alavenya crossed her arms and looked at him with obvious suspicion. "So? What exactly is this mission?" Her tone carried the same irritation as always. Then again, that was normal. Ryan had long since stopped expecting anything else. Alavenya narrowed her eyes. "And before you start acting mysterious, understand something. Just because we're working together doesn't mean I suddenly believe we're capable of acco
Chapter 420: Shadow Beneath the Auction Hall
Chapter 420: Shadow Beneath the Auction Hall The journey became far shorter than Ryan had expected. Thanks to the teleportation array established between major cities, the trip that would normally consume an entire day was reduced to little more than thirty minutes. The moment the spatial distortion settled and the faint pressure around their bodies disappeared, Ryan stepped forward and lifted his gaze toward the massive structure standing before them. His eyes narrowed. "So this is the place." The building looked strange. Very strange. Everything around it followed the architectural style common throughout the region. Elegant stone walls, decorative carvings, high towers, and refined designs created by craftsmen who clearly wanted people to admire their work. Then there was this building. It looked like someone had taken a giant box and d

Chapter 418: Ashes Beneath a Silent SkyRyan could barely feel his own skin.Every inch of his body was hidden beneath layers of thick clothing designed to block out the environment. Heavy fabric covered his arms and legs. Thick gloves protected his hands. A pair of reinforced goggles sealed his eyes from the outside world. A breathing mask covered his mouth and nose so completely that not a single particle could slip through.The reason was simple.The sky itself had become poison.Gray ash drifted endlessly from above.It fell like snow.It moved like dust.It coated the entire world in death.Ryan slowly lifted his head.The sight before him made his chest tighten.An enormous cloud stretched across the heavens.There was no blue sky.No sunlight.No stars.Nothing except an endless ceiling of dark ash that swallowed the world whole.

. Chapter 416: Threads Behind the Throne Ryan leaned back in his chair while calmly organizing the final pieces of the arrangement in his head. To anyone watching from the outside, it looked like a simple discussion regarding diplomacy and technology. In reality, every sentence he spoke was another stone placed into a structure that could influence entire kingdoms. "Send a formal letter to the Liaystian Kingdom," Ryan said. "Make sure Author's name appears clearly in it. The Beast Kingdom should receive the same message as well." The Pope remained silent and listened. Ryan continued without hesitation. "Tell them that the Holy Kingdom, for the sake of this world's future, has received my approval to share the manufacturing technology instead of keeping it under exclusive control. Mention that monopolizing something this important would only create unnecessary problems later." The

The transparent structure towered over everyone in the room, countless streams of light flowing beneath its surface like veins carrying liquid energy. Without hesitation, she pressed her palm against the crystal.The moment her Dioki flowed into it, the entire structure reacted.A pulse spread from the point of contact.Then another.Then dozens.Brilliant purple particles immediately appeared inside the crystal, floating upward like stars being born.Ryan narrowed his eyes.Everyone else did the same.For a second, the room became completely silent.Nobody spoke.Nobody moved.They simply stared.The number kept increasing.One particle.Three.Seven.Ten.Then thirteen.The crystal finally stabilized.
