The four security officers were now on the fourth floor, approaching Apartment 44 from two different directions. However, before the team leader could issue his next command, a scream echoed from below.

“What’s going on?” Unable to see clearly due to the thickening fog, he contacted one of the snipers stationed in the vehicle.

“My view is also obstructed by the fog. Requesting permission to step out?”

“No, stay where you are.”

The team leader was about to order two of his subordinates to investigate the commotion when he heard something unusual.

“What’s that sound?” he muttered, lowering his ear closer to the ground. Through the dense fog, he caught a noise that resembled the sound of a wild animal devouring its prey.

Moments later, something leaped out from the mist and landed directly in front of him.

“W-what is that?” Reflexively, all the security officers aimed their weapons at the figure that had just emerged.

As they took a closer look, their bodies began to tremble. “T-this is…

  • Chapter 484 - Helma Tilcott Appears

    Three years later.“Master Tilcott, I don’t even know what to say to you.”An elderly man bowed deeply, his posture radiating respect. His young daughter had been sentenced to just three more months of life due to cancer—until the healer before him came and cured her.“If it weren’t for you, my daughter wouldn’t have survived.”His voice trembled with emotion. Before him stood none other than the greatest healer in the entire kingdom—Helma Tilcott. She wasn’t only a legendary master healer, but also the mentor of the kingdom’s most celebrated hero, the Grand Lord Marc Belmont. What touched the man even more was that she hadn’t taken a single coin for the treatment. She had even refused his attempts to pay her.“There’s no need for such formality.”Helma gently lifted the old man’s shoulders.“Take care of her well from now on. That will be the best repayment for her healing.”She smiled warmly at him before turning to leave.“Master Tilcott, I swear on my life I will never forget your

  • Chapter 483 - Power That Brings Loss

    Marc had almost no strength left—just a sliver remained. He should have used that last trace to return his astral body to his physical one. If not, death would soon claim him.But as he lay on the ground, his astral form—so much more sensitive than flesh—sensed something. Deep beneath the earth, a surge of pure energy pulsed. Stronger than anything he had ever encountered.“So this is what Skarleta meant,” he muttered. “This is the energy she was talking about.”It was the colossal force sustaining the magic tablet.Long ago, Gravemoor Island had been a center of the world because this was where the planet’s core energy surfaced most powerfully. Within this island, the forest where the tablet emerged marked the very heart of that energy. And more precisely—the shallow basin spanning a hundred meters around the platform was its strongest point.Ordinary bodies couldn’t sense it. But Marc’s astral body could.It was a blessing in disguise. Not only could he feel it, his instincts scream

  • Chapter 482 - Marc’s Defeat

    Bang!Kael’s fist crashed against Marc’s back, sending his body hurtling forward before slamming him down onto the platform.Boom!The platform itself remained unscathed, but Marc’s astral body—though invisible—began to falter.“Damn it… I can’t breathe,” he muttered, struggling to rise from the ground.Before he could even regain his footing, Kael’s next strike landed.Bang!The goblin king’s kick smashed into Marc’s head, hurling him like a ragdoll until he crashed against the ground.Boom!Dust exploded upward, marking the spot where Marc’s body had been thrown. For Kael, it wasn’t just a result—it was a marker, a way to track his invisible opponent.Earlier, when Marc’s astral body had first appeared and effortlessly cut down Kael’s men one by one, the king hadn’t rushed recklessly into battle. Instead, he quietly studied him. To the outside world, Kael might have seemed like a brute who relied solely on muscle. But beneath that façade, he was calculating, searching for a weakness

  • Chapter 481 - An Uneven Battle

    When Miralda said Marc’s astral body was extremely powerful, she wasn’t exaggerating. The moment it was struck by the yellow beams that shot out from the tablet, Marc was able to rise instantly and launch a counterattack.In fact, his astral body could do things his physical one never could.Whooosh!Marc’s astral form soared high into the air, darting thirty meters above the ground. Below, Thorga burst into laughter, thrilled that his attack had landed.“Hahaha! Didn’t I tell you? Nothing can withstand the tablet’s power! You can try to hide all you want, but in the end, I’ll always find you—and destroy you!”He waved his hand wildly, sending streams of yellow light scattering in every direction, probing for Marc’s location.Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!Like an automated laser cannon, dozens of beams sprayed across the battlefield in seconds, annihilating everything in their path.From above, Marc frowned as he observed the devastation.“Its power really is terrifying. No wonder Skarleta bel

  • Chapter 480 - The Power of the Tablet

    "I’ll track them with my astral body."A sudden voice echoed inside Kael’s chamber, startling Skarleta and the others."Marc, are you sure?"Skarleta didn’t know that Marc’s astral body could sense someone’s presence even hundreds of miles away."I’ve never used it to track someone hiding in a forest shrouded with magical veils," Marc admitted. "But it shouldn’t be a problem.""Then why don’t you guide us along the way so we can follow?" Miralda suggested. She had no intention of letting Marc face their enemies alone."That’s a very good idea," Grizelda agreed. "But how will you fight with your hands still chained? It would be better if the two of you stay here. Kragnir and I will follow Marc instead.""No. I can’t let Marc go alone." Skarleta’s tone was unyielding. Even though she could feel her strength waning, she refused to stand down."Wait… didn’t you say Thorga kept the remote that controls these shackles?" Miralda suddenly realized. "That means it’s actually better if we both

  • Chapter 479 - Chasing Thorga

    “They’ve taken the Golden Nirvana. What do we do now?”Skarleta and Miralda paced anxiously inside Kael’s chamber. Five hours earlier, right as the Gravemoor king had entered his room, Thorga had suddenly barged in.“Brother, forgive the intrusion. But I have to tell you—Skarleta carries the ring you need to awaken the tablet’s power.”Before anyone could stop him, Thorga ripped the yellow-gemmed ring from Skarleta’s hand. Both she and Miralda had been shackled with his newest invention—restraints that not only held cultivators of level two hundred but also suppressed their internal energy.“We can’t let them control the tablet,” Skarleta muttered. “We have to do something.”Just then, the door creaked open. No one entered—only a voice echoed inside.“You fool… how could you let yourself get caught here?”Skarleta’s eyes darted around. “Grizelda, is that you?”From the empty air, a familiar figure shimmered into view. Grizelda revealed herself by disengaging a feature on her armor. Mo
