"Mick and I… we only briefly discussed abilities. Come to think of it, why didn't you tell me beforehand that he was an Awakener?"

"He doesn't like to openly admit that he's an Awakener. But it seems he couldn't deceive the assistant's eyes, could he?"

"I couldn't possibly not notice, as he kept observing me with that ability."

"Really? What did he say?"

Yuder hesitated for a moment.

"He said… there are many holes in my core...

Chapter 406 Year After Year, Planting Peach Blossoms, Blooming at the Time of Heartbreak

The first encounter by Xuanwu Lake, the chance meeting at Miaoyu Pavillion, the earnest conversation in the Xiao family home, the joy atop Dangtu Mountain, scene by scene surged into Lin Wanrong's mind like a movie. Months had passed without a sight, and longing grew like a curse, ever more intense.

"Qingxuan—" Lin Wanrong stood, stupefied, as if he had lost himself, rooted ...

Chapter 405 The Brave and Loyal Army of the Great Hua Empire

The Emperor slightly moved his countenance, pausing to ponder for a long while before saying, "Lin San, why are you so certain? You've heard Prince Cheng's opinion. This matter concerns the very lifeblood of our Great Hua. We must not take it lightly. In this time of crisis, if we divide our forces to Goryeo, won't we put our Great Hua in peril? What do you think?"

Lin San was widely knowledgeable, and o...

Chapter 404 Might of Ten Thousand Years

"Rise, my Dear Ministers," the old Emperor's voice rasped slightly as he slightly lifted his hand. The civil and military officials of the entire court thanked him in unison and respectfully stood up. Lin Wanrong examined the woman behind the curtain closely. She sat quietly, neither speaking nor smiling, her figure extraordinarily graceful.

The Emperor raised his eyes and looked around, nodding slightly, "At today's morning...

Maintaining the usual impassive expression was extraordinarily difficult in front of Kishiar. It wasn't because Kishiar was perceptive. It was because it was becoming more and more awkward for Yuder to hide the truth in front of that man as the days went by.

The most unbearable enemies are always found within, not without. Yuder found the act of avoiding Kishiar's gaze more uncomfortable than anything else, and Yuder knew the reason too.

From the...

"Today, what I witnessed was truly a miracle. My heart still has not settled. To see with my own eyes the divine power of the divine sword... I thought I was witnessing a page from the founding legends."

"How embarrassing."

On the way out, after leaving behind Baron Willhem and the priests, Micalin endlessly showered Kishiar with praise he had been holding back. Seeing Kishiar's face show no sign of embarrassment, Micalin, with an excited face, t...

Yuder thought he understood the reason why the priests hesitated, looking at each other with faces filled with uncertainty.

'I'm reminded of Bertrail Shand Apeto.'

Though his divine power was not of a significant level, he was a man who had risen to the position of one of the twelve Elder Priests solely because he came from one of the four great ducal families. Although he had long since passed away, there were still many like him within the temp...

Chapter 403 Going to Court

A night of tender whispers needed no words. Under the guise of celebrating their new home, Luo Ning, the foxy temptress, opened her arms, pulling the shy Qiaoqiao into the fray. Under Luo Ning's exemplary lead, Qiaoqiao reluctantly joined the lustful man and woman, fulfilling Lin Wanrong's grand dream of having two at once. The ecstasy of the experience was beyond words for outsiders.

The fine rain drizzled non-stop, and Lin Wanrong was ...

When he stepped out the door, it was unexpectedly raining. Everything was rejuvenating, and the spring rain was like oil, with thin drops landing on his face, cold and refreshing, waking him up. Seo Jang Geum he had met earlier that morning was nowhere to be seen. Thinking of the conditions he had offered her, he realized they were indeed hard for a young girl. But from the perspective of his nation and people, he couldn't betray his passionate...

The gently flickering oil lamp emitted a soft crackling sound, casting brilliant sparks throughout the room. The atmosphere inside was eerily quiet, and Lin Wanrong felt as if he could hear the pounding of his own heart.

Seo Jang Geum's beautiful eyes were closed gently, and two large tears slowly welled up, her face flushed with an extraordinary, alluring, and feverish red. Her delicate skin was as smooth as glass, shining incom...

"It's a relief to see you looking much healthier than the last time I saw you. I'm truly glad."

Micalin, whom Yuder met again in Tainu, looked much cleaner and neater than when he stayed in Great Sarain Forest. He repeatedly expressed his relief at seeing Yuder.

"It's fortunate to see you looking well too, Leader. How did you get here?"

"He was invited for what's happening today."

The answer came from Kishiar, who was sitting behind M...

Initially, Yuder had thought that perhaps there was a reason that made it difficult to publicly reveal Hellem's surname, only introducing her first name. However, this situation far exceeded Yuder's expectations. If she were the head of the Imperial Magic Department of the Orr Empire, her skills would be on par with the Elder Archmages at the top of the Pearl Tower.

In an era when most mages found it difficult to cast even a single spell, not everyone ...

Sensing the various gazes focusing on his fingertips, he touched the iron bars, and the monster made a small noise.

A moment later, Pethuamet slowly lowered its tail and approached in the direction where Yuder's hand was. The monster's reaction, sniffing at the iron bars as if smelling something, was the same as he had seen before.

Yuder moved his hand to the opposite side. Then, Pethuamet also turned its head and followed his fingertips. Seeing ...

After Du Xiuyuan led the troops to escort Ashile and Lu Dongzan back, the remaining thorny issues were left for Xu Wei and his associates to puzzle over. The rupture between the two nations was an imminent event, just a matter of time. Ashile was insignificant, but Lu Dongzan was a formidable figure. In Lin Wanrong's view, the best course of action would be to ostentatiously release him and then secretly dispose of him on his way back to the T...

Lu Dongzan smiled and glanced at Du Xiuyuan, without a word, the color of contempt was plain to see.

"Didn't find it?" Lord Lin snorted. "This little beast runs fast. If I catch it, I'll definitely deal with it properly. Ah, Brother Lu, where were we?"

Lord Lin rambled on, but Lu Dongzan had no time to waste on him. Crossing his arms and bowing, he spoke solemnly, "Lord Lin, the vehicles have been searched, and the Persian cat wa...

"I came here precisely for this matter." Lin Wanrong nodded, patting Du Xiuyuan's shoulder with a smile, "Is it about those nomads wanting to play with the cannon?"

Du Xiuyuan looked at him in surprise, folding his hands in salute, "General, your strategic thinking is beyond compare; I'm nowhere close."

Lin Wanrong laughed heartily, "What strategic thinking? Brother Du, don't flatter me. These northern nomads want to borrow this 'F*ck ...

Kishiar replied, looking down at Pethuamet with an emotionless expression.

It was a startling revelation that the first Duke of Tain had been a mage, and had a connection with the Archmage Luma. If this was true, then there was one person close to Yuder who might know the existence of the fourth underground dungeon floor even better than Pruelle.

"…Is it true that the first Duke of Tain was Luma's disciple?"

Enon, who had suddenly received a visit from Yuder, questioned back with a puzzled face. He had been in the mid...

Listening alone, it was impossible not to see the blatantly obvious intentions of the Duke of Tain, who seemed to conside...

"Oh, it was nothing," Lord Lin said, his face full of righteousness, and he spoke seriously, "I was discussing an academic issue with my wife ...

When Lin Wanrong returned to the Xiao family, he found neither Qiaoqiao nor the Eldest Miss, and even Madam Xiao had gone out. This puzzled him greatly. After being absent for a few days, why were all the women in the house so busy?

The little maidservant Huan'er laughed and said, “Brother San, Miss Seo Jang Geum from Goryeo has taken Qiaoqiao and Eldest Miss away, as if they are going to play with some rare toy. Even the Madam went with...

At the cliff's base, the water flowed turbulently, without cessation. Hu Bugui led tens of thousands of soldiers to search for several hours, but other than a few cloth strips hanging from the trees, they found nothing.

Lin Wanrong was relieved. Not finding the Fairy Ning was good news. Considering Ning Yuxi's abilities, she wouldn't perish so easily. Perhaps one day, she would suddenly appear befor...

“It's nothing serious, but he looks fatigued. I think he can’t properly rest when I'm there, so I made sure he was lying down and then left.”

Kishiar walked ahead without hesitation, answering Nathan Zuckerman's question as he waited outside the lodging. Though he wore a habitual smile, Nathan noticed that his eyes were more subdued than usual and chose not to ask further.

In other words, the meaning was that the noble's excessive reliance on the foreigner from the south who came with him that day seemed suspicious.

The horizon was tinged with the pale white of a fish's belly, indicating that it was nearly the fifth watch of the night. The wind and rain had gradually lessened, leaving the surroundings open and eerily quiet. The two reached the peak and hid behind a rock, peering across.

Why did they think it was a mere joke? It had been only about an hour since Yuder had devoured precisely seven and a half of the bread given to him in the prison, facing the trembling expressions of the soldiers and whatever you could say of Robel's unease. In such circumstances, having emptied the stew bowl twice, he had not eaten less than usual. Just for reference, the reason he did not eat the eighth piece of bread was because Jeymer, the Knight Commande...

In the darkness, a swift exchange of attacks left a few among the members slightly wounded, but Kishiar was untouched, not even a crease in his clothing. The members caught their breath at the sight of a wall, collapsed as though bent by a sword, in a very neat ruin to the point where the roof was visible. It was clear to anyone who looked that it was Kishiar's doing.

Although he simply stood there and did nothing, he felt somehow different than usual....
