Chapter 271 - The Pact Made Thirty Years Ago (Part 7)
BOOM!!!A deafening explosion ripped through the air, shaking the world as golden and black light clashed violently in the sky. The impact lit up the night with an eerie brilliance—gold streaked with dark energy, illuminating the heavens in an unnatural glow.But that wasn’t all.Even though the clash happened fifty meters above ground, its shockwave reached far beyond. Goblins stationed nearly two kilometers away were hurled back hundreds of meters, caught in the blast’s sheer force.Seconds later, a figure wreathed in golden light was sent flying backwards—miles away—crashing through the sky like a meteor. Simultaneously, another figure cloaked in black aura plummeted just as far, slamming into trees and finally smashing into a massive boulder that cracked under the force before his body finally came to a stop near the forest’s edge.“Damn it!”The dark-aura figure cursed under his breath, gritting his teeth. He pushed himself off the ground, pain searing through his right arm.“My
Chapter 270 - The Pact Made Thirty Years Ago (Part 6)
“Aaaargh!”Agonized screams echoed across the battlefield.Elliot stood amidst a sea of goblin corpses, his hands drenched in blood. Under the pale light of the full moon, he remained frozen, watching the last few surviving soldiers writhe and scream as the goblins tore into their flesh, ripping skin and limbs apart like ravenous beasts feasting on a long-awaited meal."I'm sorry..."He muttered softly, bowing his head as his eyes slipped shut.His reputation as a protector—shattered.But that wasn’t what truly broke him. What crushed him was the realization that not only had he failed to stop the endless waves of goblins, he couldn’t even save a single one of his men.Roar!Roar!Roar!The snarls of the bloodthirsty creatures surrounded him. About thirty feet around Elliot, the goblins paced restlessly, unable to move closer—repelled by the golden aura radiating from his body, an energy so intense it seemed to scorch their very skin.“Aaaargh!”The last soldier's scream rang out—a fi
Chapter 269 - The Pact Made Thirty Years Ago (Part 5)
“Damn it! This is completely out of control!”Still mid-air, Elliot cursed under his breath as he spotted tens of thousands of goblins stampeding out of the forest—racing toward his ten-thousand-strong unit like a swarm of rabid beasts.They didn’t just move fast. They surged like a tidal wave of predators—wild, relentless, fearless.Bang! Bang! Bang!Rattatatat! Rattatatat!Down below, chaos reigned. His soldiers, led by several trusted lieutenant colonels, were panicked and disorganized. Most were shooting blindly, spraying bullets like rookies who'd never held a gun before.Elliot could see the fear had swallowed them whole.These troops were seasoned, sure. But fighting bloodthirsty creatures that moved like cheetahs, leaping through the air with inhuman speed and agility? This was new territory. And it was deadly.“Savage freaks!”Elliot clenched his jaw tight. He had to act—now—or he’d watch his army get wiped out.Hovering two hundred meters above the battlefield, he gathered a
Chapter 268 - The Pact Made Thirty Years Ago (Part 4)
“This can’t be real! That myth… it’s true?!”Elliot clenched both fists on instinct, a blazing golden aura erupting from his body. It lit up the shadowy courtyard beneath the pale full moon like a beacon.Before him stood dozens of ragged, foul-smelling figures, their blood-red eyes locked onto him with razor-sharp intensity.In all his decades in the military, Elliot had encountered supernatural beings from other races—vampires, werewolves, even elves. But goblins? This was a first.He’d always believed goblins were nothing more than bedtime horror stories meant to scare little kids. Yet here they were, right in front of his eyes.Roar!Across the courtyard, around thirty goblins crouched in a semi-circle, feasting on a deer carcass. The moment they noticed Elliot, they froze mid-bite and slowly rose to their feet.Their beady eyes scanned him from head to toe, their nostrils flaring wildly.Sniff-sniff!The scent of human flesh was strong and tempting. They didn’t even hesitate—why
Chapter 267 - The Pact Made Thirty Years Ago (Part 3)
“No. That won’t be necessary.”Elliot shook his head firmly, brushing off the lieutenant colonel’s suggestion to send scouts ahead.“The soldiers haven’t been home in two months. They’ve got families waiting for them. I want them going home in one piece, so I’ll handle this myself.”Elliot wasn’t just a commanding officer, he cared. Deeply. To him, his men weren’t pawns to be sacrificed. They were warriors with lives worth protecting. And if there was a mission only he could take on, he’d never throw someone else into the fire for it.He already had twenty injured under his command. That number was more than enough.And frankly, this final group of fugitives? Just a low-level gang. Nobodies. Not even on the elite threat list. With his cultivation level, it shouldn't be more than a quick cleanup job, capture or kill.Handing his binoculars over to the lieutenant colonel, Elliot stepped forward, his pace steady but alert.“General, then at least let me go with you.”The lieutenant colon

"We swear to follow the kingdom’s laws—completely, without question!"Drenched in sweat, his voice cracking with desperation, the mayor writhed on the ground, hands bound behind his back as he looked up at Elliot with pleading eyes."Lord Griffin, please! We’re begging you—have mercy!"But Elliot didn’t even flinch. His expression remained cold, unmoved.He stepped down from the podium and slowly walked toward the mayor, who lay sprawled on the ground, trembling."You still have the nerve to say that now?"Elliot’s tone stayed level, but the restrained fury behind his voice was impossible to miss."Where was all this remorse a year ago? Didn’t I make it clear that this punishment should’ve been carried out back then? You had your chance. I gave you time. So why didn’t you take it?"His words sliced through the silence like a blade. Despite the weight of what he was saying, Elliot’s face remained stone cold.A year ago, the crimes these men committed warranted nothing short of death. B

"Grizelda, what are you talking about?"The man, Elliot, fired back with a puzzled look on his face. His tone was laced with disbelief, like her accusation had come out of nowhere."Open your eyes—and your mind. You're making baseless claims. And really, how could you forget something so important?"His expression hardened as he locked eyes with her. Whatever this was, Elliot wasn’t treating it lightly."Let me remind you of the blood pact we made: no human is allowed to cross the Pennigor Mountains without permission. Anyone who does... dies."The Pennigor Mountains stretched across the southern edge of Cammont County, separating it from the massive Eldrador Forest. Since Cammont was the southernmost region of Walenstein Province, the mountains also served as a border to Brynmor, the neighboring province.But truth be told, most people in Walenstein didn’t even consider Eldrador—or Brynmor for that matter—part of the Lanshire Kingdom.Why? Because the people there acted more like bea
Chapter 264 - You Gotta Be Willing to Die for What You Believe In
"You keep going on and on about revenge—like I owe you something for those goblins—without even thinking about what they did to the human race."Marc's voice echoed from inside the inn’s lobby, each word growing louder as he stepped closer to Grizelda."Don’t you get it? By standing up for them, you're just as guilty as the ones who tore this place apart. You're not some noble leader—you’re just another monster hiding behind a cause!"As he spat out the last word, Marc stepped fully into view through the shattered remains of the lobby’s doorway.Blood trickled from the corners of his mouth, and his right arm hung limply at his side, a faint wisp of smoke still curling from it. No need for a closer look—anyone could see his arm was badly damaged.His shallow, ragged breathing and the pain etched across his face hinted at deeper internal injuries. Still, the fire in his eyes never faded. There was no fear in them, no sign of surrender—just raw, unshakable resolve."So go on. Do it. Hit
Chapter 263 - Grizelda’s Wrath
Rising from the ground, a dark aura surged around Grizelda’s body—thick, ominous, and freezing cold. It didn’t just look dangerous. The air around her turned icy, as if the very atmosphere might shatter from the chill she exhaled.“We goblins never lie,” she said coldly. “And we don’t tolerate lies from others.”The moment she spoke, she vanished—only to reappear instantly, right in front of Marc.“You really are a snake,” she hissed. “You slaughtered my people, and now you have the audacity to trick me? You’re going to die for that.”Her hand shot forward—straight for his throat.Marc’s eyes went wide.What the hell? he thought, heart racing. Why’s she accusing me of playing dirty?Just minutes ago, Grizelda had made it very clear—he could attack from any direction, using any method. That had been the deal. So why flip out now, just because he used a vanish-strike technique?But Marc didn’t have time to argue. The aura coming off her hand alone made it clear—this wasn’t just some fla
