Drake had his eyes widened upon realizing that the seal really got lifted off. He then swallowed his saliva as he felt great hesitation. "Remember…if you lie to me, then I know a million different ways to make you beg for death," Damien said in a tone that made Drake feel the chills. "Okay…okay…the Xeton Emperor is the one who really sent me…not my family, though they were the ones who recommended me," Drake said as he timidly looked at Godnim. Damien didn't seem surprised since he had already…-

"Are you upset because of that?" Damien asked, even though he felt that she was upset about something else. Reva shook her head slowly before saying in a cool voice, "No...I want you to save her, especially since she is the reason you are alive now. But...what troubles me is you will be alright, going out there on your own. Even Valentina is asleep, right? And Yuria is in a different empire. You have no support at all, and I don't really like you going alone." Damien sighed as he hugged her from behind,…

"Siphon their cultivation? You mean absorbing them for his own gain? How vile!...We should have known…" Irene mumbled with a dark expression. "Couldn't have expected any less from a god like him…" Reva muttered with firmly pressed lips. "He actually could have just absorbed our cultivations right after he killed us, but he was in an injured state where he couldn't just go around killing everyone. He wanted someone to do all the work for him, and that too in a way that we don't feel suspicious. The…

There was total silence in the cottage as not only Irene and Reva but even Damien had astonished expressions as they looked at a younger-looking Elor, sitting up on the bed, inspecting himself with a look of disbelief. He no longer looked like an old man on his deathbed but a man around in his fifties. His face no longer was filled with wrinkles, and his muscles and skin weren't sagging anymore. In fact, his body was now brimming with vigor and power, and even the three could feel the immense power…

Damien's question seemed to baffle everyone, even Elor, who had no idea that the seal was still present on his ethereal core. Damien felt that something felt off here and asked, "What happens when a Zirian dies? Especially one that had a cursed seal on their ethereal core?" Irene seemed a bit distracted, but Reva, who had a clearer mind, answered, "We place our dead in the Pool of Serenity where Yohr said that or lied to us that he would help their souls reach a good place in their next life and that…

"Eh…what the…Are you serious? Even if I am a genius doctor, I am not a god or anything to stop a man from dying from old age. It's already a miracle he managed to live this long with the help of that treasure," Damien said as he looked at the ancient-looking amulet around Elor's neck. The moment he learned that Elor was Reva's grandfather and had been staying alive all this while after even having his cultivation crippled astonished Damien since this was the first time he was seeing a cripple live…

Damien had a blinking expression hearing Luna's words and seeing Luna's strange smile, he couldn't help but think that something important was happening to Valentina. "Then I should get out of here. I have been cultivating for too long," Damien said as he got up and inspected himself. "Master, your cultivation has really made good progress all these months. That dual cultivation art is really helpful," Kallypso said with a satisfied expression. Luna smirked as she said casually, "Don't forget who gave…

"And the sleeping beauty finally wakes up, hmph," A silvery scoff resounded in Damien's head as he opened his eyes after a very long time. If he was an ordinary person, his white robes would have all become dirty and crinkled long ago, and his body would have smelled like a swamp from not taking a bath for months. Of course, this was ignoring the fact that he would have long died of hunger and thirst if he had tried to go into seclusion for this long. However, Damien's cultivation was at a level men and…

"Zirians…stand tall! For hope is not yet lost. See this again and witness how we were able to push back the imperial army and even its leader, the Xeton Emperor, the most powerful emperor. This is a historical feat that we had never been able to achieve, especially in a time when we didn't even have the time to prepare against a sudden attack. It is indeed true that we have lost a lot of good people but let us not let their deaths be in vain. The Xeton Emperor will never rest till he eradicates every…

Lily wiped her tears and slowly opened the door with a depressed face, "Grandpa…" Her angelic face no longer looked as radiant as when she used to spend time with Damien, and her black gem-like eyes looked dull than ever before. It was as if she was struggling to keep herself from losing all hope. Marvin softly smiled as he patted her head with a warm expression and wiped her eyes as he said, "Don't be sad, dear. Damien will be alright. We both know that he is no ordinary man and how special he is. If…
