After sending Ethan crashing to the ground, Lyall seemed to step onto something mid-air and pushed herself downwards like a cannonball. She didn’t plan on relenting in her assault, and she didn’t feel guilty about it. Not at all! In fact, she was even smiling, for it had been a long while since she had last felt something this exhilarating in. She loved fighting, and she loved fighting strong opponents. The looks on the faces of the people whom she defeated made her realize that winning was…-

“I don’t like betting,” Ethan replied. “My Grandma told me there are three things I shouldn't do in this life. And they are gambling, betrayal, and touching her wallet. Aside from those three, I can do anything else.” Lyall chuckled after hearing Ethan’s reply. She knew very little about him since, all this time, the only thing she cared about was his strength. She never even bothered asking about his family members, his goals in life, and what he wished to do in the future. In the…

For dinner, Ethan went to the Dining Hall in order to fulfill his promise to meet Lyall after eating. Just like last time, Lily’s sister dined at Jaeger Manor’s table, but something unexpected caught his eye. Chloe and Lyall were seated together, and they seemed to be getting along really well. Lily even seemed relieved, probably because her sister had finally calmed down. But she had a feeling that this was merely the calm before the storm. Her eyes met Ethan’s, and the two exchanged…

Chloe looked at Lyall’s eyes fearlessly as the latter looked at her coldly. Right now, Lily’s sister was a hunting wolf, ready to pounce on the deer in front of her at any given moment. Chloe was tempted to answer her and say that even if the latter ate her heart, she would still not gain Ethan’s love. On the contrary, Ethan's discomfort would turn to hate. But for some reason, she believed that Lyall would be fine with that as well. If Ethan hated Lyall, at least he would always think of…

Right after leaving Dud Manor, Lyall wanted to blow off some steam. With this in mind, she headed to the Great Eagle Forest, planning to find something she could punch repeatedly to oblivion until all her frustrations were vented. But just as she was about to enter the forest, she noticed someone up ahead. Although she was still a distance away, Lyall quickly recognized that the figure she saw was none other than Chloe. “Hey, what are you doing here?” Lyall asked as she increased her speed to…

“Have you seen Ethan?” Lyall asked a few members of Dud Manor after failing to find the young man. She had patiently waited until the end of his classes. But when she went to look for him, the teenage boy vanished without a trace. Of course, she could search for him by tracking his scent. However, when she used this method, she ended up in the garden where the Fairies resided. That was the end of it. No matter how hard she looked, she couldn’t see even a trace of his shadow. Not to mention…

Three minutes later, Dainsleif had finished consuming Aspis. Harial, who was prepared to copy his fallen comrade’s strategy, tried to appeal to Ethan, and was willing to answer his questions as well. But, Ethan didn’t give him that chance. Before Harial could even make a proposal to him, he ordered the Ancient Wendigo to devour the wicked Fomorian, who was able to use the faces and bodies of the beings he absorbed to become his skin. The mere thought of having such a sinister creature on the…

‘I must get away! I must escape this place no matter what!’ These were the thoughts of the three remaining Fomorians that were currently trapped inside Sebastian’s Water Bubbles. No matter how much they tried to break free from its hold, it was truly impossible to do anything. Also, even if they did manage to slip away from the Water Bubble, they were still surrounded by many powerful individuals, who would easily capture them again. Lastly, even if they do manage to escape by some miracle,…

The Fomorians, whose strength rose drastically, all attacked Ethan as if he and them couldn’t co-exist in the same place and time. The others, who were fighting them earlier, also noticed that the entire Domain shuddered and that the countless Giant Vultures flying in the sky earlier all turned into a black mist. The multiple wisps of black mist then merged with the bodies of the Fomorians, raising their strength to greater heights. Harial transformed into a thirty-meter tall corrupted treant,…

“Is this your first time fighting inside a Domain, handsome?” Samara asked Ethan with a smile on her face while she attacked the boy who was dealing with a giant vulture that had swooped down on him. “Inside this Domain, we are twice as powerful as we normally are. So, if you don’t pay attention to your surroundings, you might die young, you know?” Ethan didn’t bother to answer and simply blocked Samara’s claws, utilizing the force of her attack to help him skid backward. With that,…
