"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

  • Chapter 338 - A Legendary Bloodline

    “Wyrmblood?”Marc furrowed his brows. He had heard of many powerful names across Lanshire—almost all of them, in fact.But Wyrmblood? That was a name he was hearing for the first time.“Who are they? What kind of clan is that?”It wasn’t just the unfamiliarity that stirred his curiosity. More than that, the fact that Elliot seemed to believe there was a connection between him and this mysterious clan made Marc wonder—could this be the key to learning something about who he really was?“Seriously? You’ve never heard of them?”Elliot looked genuinely surprised.“I’m pretty sure there’s not a soul in all of Lanshire who doesn’t know that name—especially the man it’s tied to: Lord Armand Wyrmblood. A legend whose name still echoes through time.”Marc’s brow knit even deeper. He had been lounging with his legs stretched out, barely paying attention, but now he turned fully toward the grand marquis, suddenly very interested.“Lord Armand Wyrmblood? Old man, who the hell is he?”“You’ve got

  • Chapter 337 - Double Breakthrough

    "W-What?!"Elliot could only shake his head in disbelief. Words failed him.“Y-You’re not joking… are you?”Reaching the peak level—level 100—was already an extraordinary feat. For someone Marc’s age, those who’d ever achieved it could be counted on one hand.But Marc hadn’t just reached it. He surpassed it.And what left Elliot utterly speechless was the fact that this young man had broken through not once, but twice."D-Does that mean…?"He was still in shock. If what Marc said was true, his power should now be beyond level 200.Unbelievable. The young man standing before him was a monster.“Hm.” Marc gave a casual nod. “If my senses are accurate, I should be around level 210 now.”As he spoke, Marc raised his hand and studied the glowing magenta aura pulsing through his veins.“Two hundred and ten? T-That’s… that’s impossible, isn’t it?!”Marc remained calm, but Elliot was spiraling—like he’d just been handed a revelation straight from the heavens. A story so fantastical, it should

  • Chapter 336 - More Powerful

    "My power..."Marc started to speak, but Elliot quickly waved a hand, shaking his head with an exasperated sigh."Alright, alright. Why do you enjoy teasing me so much?"Elliot had already figured out that Marc wasn’t being entirely serious. He was putting on a brave face—trying to act composed, even playful—just to keep Elliot from worrying.He knew Marc was only pretending to be okay.“I get it. You just want me to feel at ease, right? I respect that. But let me remind you—you don’t have to do that.”Elliot reached for the empty glass in front of Marc, but before he could walk away, the young man stopped him.“Old man, how about touching the tip of my finger?”Marc flashed a wide, mischievous grin as he raised his index finger. He knew Elliot wouldn’t believe what he was about to say. So, instead of explaining, he figured—why not show him directly?“Oh, come on! Marc, really?”Elliot shook his head. He thought the kid was just messing around again.“I told you, you don’t have to put

  • Chapter 335 - Level Zero

    A week later.Marc slowly opened his eyes. As his vision adjusted, the first thing that caught his attention was the faint glow emanating from around his navel—a vibrant magenta hue, like a mix of violet and pink.“What is this? Is this… a new aura forming inside me?”Previously, after consuming the sacred jade stone, his inner energy had taken on a purple hue. Then, after swallowing the Sky Blossom Pill, which had a soft pink color, it seemed that the energy within him had changed again—melding into this striking magenta.But that was only the surface.What Marc felt inside his body was far more extraordinary.Looking down at his bare chest and pajama pants, he saw the magenta aura flowing through every pore, spreading throughout his entire being. Of course, only he could see it. Even a mid-tier cultivator wouldn’t be able to detect such a vast, yet refined, energy stream.He flexed his fingers and took a deep breath.“Amazing... This is unbelievable!”Not only did he feel refreshed,

  • Chapter 334 - Skarleta's Wrath

    Skarleta clearly had no intention of holding back anymore. The envoy from the Velkyn Kingdom had done nothing but scream in pain, shielding his face instead of offering a single word of apology. That was all the confirmation she needed to escalate things.“You insolent wretch! You’d rather keep that filthy mouth shut than apologize to me? Fine!”Bang!The moment she finished speaking, her fist rocketed forward and slammed into the envoy’s face. His body was hurled backward, flying several dozen feet before crashing into the far wall of the hall with a resounding thud.Thud!“Skarleta, what do you think you're doing?!”Grizelda’s shout cut through the tense air. She had been frozen in shock until that moment, but the goblin girl’s outburst snapped her back to her senses.She couldn’t stay silent any longer. Things were spiraling out of control.“Get a grip, you foolish child! What were you thinking, attacking a royal envoy from Velkyn?!”At the same time, Kragnir rushed toward Skarleta

  • Chapter 333 - Skarleta Has Lost Her Patience

    “You’re nothing here! If I wanted you dead, you'd already be dead!”Those words hit like lightning, striking everyone who heard them. The envoy’s face twisted with fury.“Skarleta!”He no longer bothered to call her Queen.“How dare you speak that way to a Velkyn envoy like me?!”He shouted back with equal force. To him, such insolence wasn't just a personal insult—it was a direct attack on the honor of the Velkyn Kingdom itself.“Kneel and apologize now, or you'll regret it!”The envoy threatened her outright. But instead of backing down, his words only pushed Skarleta over the edge.“You insolent bastard!”Skarleta rose from her throne, her patience snapped like a brittle twig. His arrogance had crossed the line—and she wouldn’t let it slide.“Apologize?” she snarled. “That’s the last thing I’d ever do!”In a flash, she vanished from her seat and reappeared right in front of the envoy.“You should be the one begging me for forgiveness, you idiot!”SLAP!Without a second thought, her
