Who knew what power Wilbur would gain if he were able to activate the historical halberd's full weight? For someone capable of forging a weapon like this, the Cook family ancestor was definitely a force to be reckoned with for his time. It was just a shame that the entire era had perished. Wilbur could not help but sigh. He put down the halberd, leaving his demiplane to return to his room. Wilbur sat down in the living room and glanced at the time. Three whole days had passed since he had entered the demiplane. He then made plans to see Faye at night, so he could talk about Nancy's arrangement with her for good. There had to be a solution to this. Nancy could not live the rest of her life like this. Just then, however, Wilbur frowned at the door. "Do you need something, Charles?" "Sir, Wesley Miller's fainted at the bridge. What should I do?" Charles asked cautiously. Wilbur frowned, before saying, "Bring him in here." "Yes, Sir." Charles hurried off at once. Wi
Wesley was startled, but quickly said, "Just tell me what it is, sir. I won't say no as long as it's within my abilities." Wilbur glanced at him. "First of all, I'll have your head if I find out you lied to me." "I swear I'm telling the truth. I swear on my life!" Wesley scrambled to say. Wilbur paid him no mind. "Second of all, I'll help you get your revenge if you're telling the truth and return justice to your parents so they can rest well in the afterlife. But in return I'd like to hold most of the shares in your company, meaning that you'll lose control over it." "Oh…" Wesley hesitated at this. If someone else was the majority shareholder and took control of the company over Wesley, would that not mean that Wesley was still losing the company and becoming someone else's pawn anyway? Yet the thought of his parents' tragic deaths made Wesley grit his teeth and shout, "I'm alright with that. As long as you avenge my parents, I'll do anything!" It was fine even if he wer
"Dani Jovani, Executive CEO at Yoma Corp. My warning goes out to you two as well. I don't care what you're here for, but you're going to keep your heads down and be on your best behavior here in Exodus Province, or you'll die a horrible, horrible death. Am I clear?" Dani said, her expression nothing but arrogant. Wilbur chuckled. "Damn. Yoma Corp sounds really impressive. You're definitely one of the biggest forces in Exodus Province." "Yoma Corp, Marshall Corp, and Webber Corp are the three biggest corporations in all of Exodus Province, far from anything you idiots can afford to mess with. I'm just here to give you a warning, but if you don't listen and insist on digging your own grave, I'm not going to stop you." Upon saying so, Dani turned to leave with her bodyguards. She stopped at the door, chuckling before glancing at Wilbur and the others one last time. "Oh, that reminds me. The Exodus Business Chamber Alliance is going to be officiated tomorrow afternoon at the Glorio
The applause went on for a while. The three men sat down before the podium, and their men dispersed to surround the room to supervise the situation. Just then, Wilbur, Ryder, and Wesley entered the hall as well. They were stopped by the security guards at the door immediately. "Where's your invitation?" asked one of the guards, devoid of emotion. Wilbur said, "We don't have one. Your CEO, Madam Dani Jovani invited us." The guard looked the three men up and down, and said, "Wait here." Another guard ran over to Dani at once. She made her way over not long after, coming up to Wilbur. Dani smiled at all three men. "I can't believe you really came. I must say I respect your courage. Come with me." She then led the three of them over to sit in a corner of the hall, before leaning over mockingly. "Listen well and learn, and you might just make smarter choices in the future." "Don't you worry. We're here to do exactly that," Wilbur said with a smile. Dani shook her hea
Everyone else in the room got to their feet at once, bursting into loud applause. A short while later, the emcee emerged from the VIP waiting room with two middle-aged men in tow as well as their assistants. Both men made their way over to the podium, all while respecting each other's space. "Please do say a few words to everyone here, Mister Cliffson," Vale said to a fat, middle-aged man in black-rimmed glasses with a smile. Huge Cliffson smiled. "Mister Hayes came all this way. Why don't we have him speak first?" Next to him, a tall skinny man smiled as well. "It's fine. You're the host here. You should go first." Both men wheedled for a while more before Hugh finally let out a chuckle and made his way over to the microphone. "Everyone here is undoubtedly an elite member of the Exodus Province business industry, so I won't waste your precious time. On behalf of the Exodus Business Chamber Alliance, I'm sure that working with the Kiwanis Chamber of Commerce will yield gr
Wilbur burst out laughing, shaking his head. "I truly don't know where you people get the confidence to be acting like this. It's hilarious." "You…" Dani trembled in anger at Wilbur's words, unable to get a word out of her own. To Dani, the people in this room were indeed upper-class men, society's most elite individuals. Wesley and the others were mere low lives, whose misery was only their fate. Someone coming along with these low lives would never ever be able to understand what it meant to have power. For a low life to humiliate her like this invoked such anger in Dani that she could not take it at all. "Take them out of here and bring them to a hotel room! I'm going to have a good chat with them once this is over," Dani fumed, her gaze murderous as she barked out orders at her bodyguards. Just then, Vale Yoma of Yoma Corp, Laurent Marshall of Marshall Corp, and Chancy Webber of Webber Corp had gotten on the stage and were currently in the middle of taking pictures
After doing that, he pushed the thought to the back of his head. Now, however, someone had the nerve to bring this up at a venue like this. That person must have had a death wish or something. Vale quickly hid his rage, turning back to smile at Hugh and Jan. "Please have a seat, gentlemen. We've got a little misunderstanding here. Please give me a moment to settle it and I'll be right back." Hugh and Jan did not seem to mind, nodding with smiles on their faces as they headed offstage to sit at the VIP table with Laurent and Chancy. Vale smirked coldly as he came up to Wilbur with a few bodyguards in tow, observing him closely. Dani hurried to bow. "I'm sorry, Mister Yoma. This only happened due to my incompetence, I'll have them kicked out this very instant." "No, there's no need for that." Vale waved a hand, sitting down in front of Wilbur and fixing him with a stare laced with mild interest. Wilbur sat down as well, leisurely pulling out his pack of cigarettes and light
A few cries of agony could be heard, and Ryder was back at his seat. The bodyguards he had just run around were gripping their wrists in pain and collapsed on the ground. Within just a blink of an eye, Ryder had cut one of each of their hands clean off their wrists. Wesley was dumbstruck. Ryder had been silently scowling the entire time, thus Wesley had not said a single word to him. Wesley thought that Ryder was one of Wilbur's assistants or something. However, it turned out that this guy was powerful and ruthless. Ryder's expression, however, remained unchanged. Someone had threatened the safety of a member of the Department of Paranormal Research and Defense. It was considered an act of mercy that Ryder did not kill them on the spot. Dani was shocked to her core as well, staring at Ryder in a daze. Vale could hardly believe his eyes. Despite the fact that these bodyguards were not his strongest men, they were at least at the Aura level. How could all of them
Faye was clad in a beautiful wedding dress, hardly needing any blusher for how red her cheeks looked. Wilbur was also looking dapper in a fine tuxedo, and the bride and groom went around toasting to their friends one by one. Both their parents were overjoyed, knowing that their children had finally ended up with someone so wonderful. Everyone else was also brimming with smiles, drinking up a storm as the night went on. These people were all friends or subordinates of Wilbur and wanted nothing more than the best for him and Faye. There was no wedding emcee, and the ceremony was extremely simple, but the atmosphere was incomparable as everyone was nothing but smiles. The reception lasted all the way until late into the night, and even the newlyweds' parents got a little tipsy. The banquet ended at last, and the guests ushered Wilbur and Faye into their new bedroom. The newlyweds sat down facing each other, locking eyes. Faye lowered her head bashfully, and Wilbur looked
It was evening on Sealake Island when Wilbur returned. He stood on the long bridge, overwhelmed with emotion as he let out a hint of his aura. The island grew abuzz at once, and a series of familiar figures fought their way into Wilbur's line of sight. Wilbur smiled, stepping onto the island slowly. His smile grew as he came to the square, taking in the sight of Faye, Elsa, Faron, Shepard, and many others. Everyone else stared back at him, unable to hide the emotion on their faces. It had been so long since they had seen Wilbur, and there was no way for them to reach him. Words could not describe how much they had worried about and missed him. "I thought you were never coming back, Wilbur." Faye was the first to speak. Wilbur walked up to her, taking her into his arms. "I'm sorry. It'll never happen again. Everything's over now, and I'll never leave you again." Faye's heart soared as she broke out into overjoyed sobs. Everyone else was nothing but joyous as well. Fo
Bahamut, being a reincarnation of Kaiser himself, came slithering toward Wilbur. They both turned into their human forms, and a fierce battle broke out once more. Kaiser channeled his energy into Bahamut's body, giving Bahamut the upper hand over time. At last, Bahamut severely wounded Wilbur with a blow of his sword, causing Wilbur to fall from mid-air. "Hahaha!" Kaiser appeared suddenly then, laughing loudly. "Nice work, Bahamut." "Thank you, Master." Bahamut retreated behind Kaiser, looking at him coldly. He whipped out a dagger from his sleeves all of a sudden, driving it deep into Kaiser. Kaiser flipped around sharply, grabbing Bahamut's wrist and glowering at him. "Have you lost your mind?" Just then, the Dark Lord's voice sounded from Bahamut's throat. "You've stopped me many times now, Kaiser Fern! There's no way in hell I'll let you become the ultimate elite!" A furious Kaiser reached out to grab Bahamut's head, sucking him into his body. An explosion sounded throu
Just then, the Cold Lord muttered a spell. A series of snowy mountains descended from above, one of them striking Wilbur and Augheimer as the Cold Lord cackled. "Haha! Is that all you've got?" As his words rang through the air, the snowy mountain exploded with a loud boom into countless icy fragments to reveal Wilbur and Augheimer, standing tall and completely unaffected. "What?" "These imbeciles!" the Flame God shouted. The air around turned into a sea of flames at once, burning away relentlessly, but they vanished as soon as they came in contact with Wilbur and Augheimer's defense barriers. The Earth God shouted, "I'll settle this!" He muttered a spell, and the ground cracked open as Wilbur and Augheimer fell into a bottomless abyss. The Earth God smirked, and the crack began to close up. Yet just a few seconds later, the ground exploded as Wilbur and Augheimer flew back up. The Tornado God cast a spell to bring about a fierce gust of wind filled with countless razor-sh
The next second, Wilbur's Magic Dragon Blade made a gash in the air. The two men then wove through the gash, making their way to the lower dimensions from the upper dimensions and returning to Earth. The gash closed itself up, and a powerful wave of black miasma surged into the oceans from the heavens. It cleared up within a few minutes, and Earth was turned into a dark space. Several big fissures appeared in the heavens as the evil gods descended on Earth. The Blood God, the God of Destruction, the Cold Lord, the Flame God, the Earth God, the Tornado God, the God of Bloodlust, and the Snake God—all eight evil gods had descended upon Earth at the same time. Wilbur summoned the broken pieces of the Light Armor from the Fire Dragon Ring. The pieces radiated a white glow as they hovered in mid-air, and Wilbur quickly used his mind to put them together before wearing the Light Armor on his body. "Hahaha!" The Blood God laughed loudly. "I guess the universe dimensions aren't all
Hailey and Kayleen ducked out of the way before the pillars of light reached them, darting up to Sade at the last second as Hailey drove her sword into him at the same time Kayleen did the same with her spear. Hailey glowered at Sade. "You're the one who's really despicable here, Sade. Say goodbye to the world forever!" "Arghhhh!" Sade's body exploded in a flash of white light, disappearing out of sight. Hailey and Kayleen both got down on one knee. "At your service, Masters." Just then, Wilbur and Augheimer looked at the two ladies at the same time. Augheimer said, "At ease. You can both go back now, your work here is done." "Yes, Master." Hailey and Kayleen disappeared the next second. Just then, a fierce wind rolled over as a pillar of white light descended from the heavens as Odysseus appeared in front of the two men. "Wilbur Penn and Augheimer. I’ve finally found you. Tell me where the dimension guardians are, and hand them over!" A gleeful Odysseus reached out t
Sade threw his head back, laughing loudly. "No one has the right to replace me, no one! I'm the real dimensional guardian, the leader of the galaxy!" Just then, two figures appeared in the sky. They were Hailey and Kayleen, two of the other dimensional guardians. Hailey was holding a long sword as she scowled at Sade below her. "You went against the rules of the universe and changed its functions, Sade. And now you've killed Wilbur Penn, the cultivator who was supposed to replace you. For that, Kayleen and I are going to kill you today." Sade smirked at those words, not looking shocked at all. "I knew you two would never let me go for killing Wilbur. But he's already dead, and I still need to maintain order in the universe as a dimensional guardian. Even though you two may hate me, you can't kill me or you'd be going against the rules of the universe too, and have to be sentenced by Mister Richardson. Trust me, you won't end up in much better of a state than I'm in." Just then
Augheimer asked out of confusion, "What? To the upper dimension? All of a sudden?" Wilbur looked flustered, he replied, "There's no time to explain. Odysseus will be here in a while, and we won't be able to escape." Sade looked at Wilbur. He told Augheimer, "He's right. Believe him. Why would your close friend lie to you?" "That's right. He's a dimensional guardian, Sade. I begged Sade to go back in time here. Hurry up and come with me, Augheimer!" "Thanks, but if we're leaving, we should at least go to Buck Town and meet Felix one last time, right?" asked Augheimer. Wilbur looked at Augheimer in the eyes, there was a sense of familiarity that welled up all of a sudden. Wilbur instantly realized Augheimer had a secret in Buck Town, and perhaps it was very important to Augheimer. He helplessly nodded and replied, "Alright, we'll go to Buck Town first." Then, the three of them came to Buck Town through a transportation array. Augheimer grabbed Wilbur and ran. He said, "Run! F
"Damn it! Your second wish was supposed to be mine!" yelled Odysseus. Odysseus once captured a dimensional guardian's servant by chance, and he used him as leverage to obtain his final two wishes. His first wish was for Sade to guide him to the most powerful power of light spell. His second wish was for Sade to lead him to the Death Scepter. Odysseus mastered the power of two types of laws, the power of light and the power of death. He quickly grasped the intricacies of the power of death due to his unique talent. Odysseus wielded the might of both supreme spells with the Death Scepter and the most powerful power of light spell. Therefore, Odysseus gained immense confidence. His capabilities far surpassed most upper dimension cultivators, but he remained in the middle dimension. His desire was to once again capture a second dimensional guardian servant. Odysseus planned to acquire the Death Cloak by obtaining the servant's wish. Ultimately, he would combine the Death Cloak, D
