Wilbur nodded. "That's the way to go. Battling it out is only a last resort. You've got the right idea." "We'll let them go this time. Say, shouldn't we celebrate such a big win?" Faron asked. Faye smiled. "Sure! This one's on Cape, let's have some fun." "Woohoo!" Faron and Elsa cheered at the same time. Wilbur smiled. It was nearly impossible for anyone to ask these two out any other day. However, they had been so enthusiastic and sincere in helping him, he could tell that they could be trusted now. Just then, Jose showed up out of nowhere. Wilbur let him in. "Sir, I've got something to tell you." Jose glanced at the other people around and hesitated. "It's just us. Get on with it," Wilbur said. Jose said. "Okay, then. Marcus sent me a hundred million dollars and told me to pass it to you as thanks for saving him." Faron and Elsa buried their heads into their mugs of tea. Wilbur's life was far too mysterious, and the two of them knew better than to question it too
Wilbur shook his head. It was clear that the guy had a bit too much to drink and was not thinking straight. What a pervert. Faron frowned in annoyance as well. Elsa shouted, "Go home if you've had too much to drink! Don't get yourself into trouble for nothing." Faye rested her head on Wilbur's shoulders, giggling softly. The man was infuriated by the harsh rejection. Before he could even say anything, two other men came up behind him and said, "How dare you! Do you even know who he is?" "I don't give a f*ck who he is. Get out of my way," Elsa said coldly. One of the guys got angry at once. "This here Mister Leon from the Bureau of Commerce and Trade! How dare you speak to him like this?" "Is that so? Big deal." Elsa was clearly annoyed now. The men, who were all significantly tipsy, were all the more enraged. After all, they had just been humiliated in public and caught the attention of many. The man named Mister Leon sneered coldly. "Listen up. No one gets away aft
If that guy really was related in any way to the Campbells, Leon would be done for. He scrambled up to Faron and the rest, kneeling on the ground. "Please, I'm sorry. It's my fault. I should've known who I was talking to. I'm really sorry. Please let me go." "Get out of the way. Don't be a nuisance here. I'm in the middle of my dinner," Faron said coldly. Leon immediately knew there was no point in begging any further. If he had kept on doing that, he might suffer a fate worse than just losing his job. He got to his feet and offered a deep bow to Faron and the rest, apologizing one last time before fleeing with his men in panic. The sight left everyone else in the restaurant stunned. This woman was an incredible fighter, and that guy had gotten those hooligans to apologize on their knees just like that? Who were these people? Just then, Elsa glanced at the server and asked, "Is the room ready?" The server nodded weakly, and the four of them entered the room at last to g
The person held a suitcase in his right hand and had his left arm wrapped in bandages, standing there straight like a board. Wilbur looked at him and was taken aback, asking, "Ryder?" He quickly crossed the bridge and approached Ryder. He looked at his arm and asked, "How did you manage to get here so quickly?" "Ryder Litwing, elite combat personnel of the Department of Paranormal Research and Defense, reporting in," Ryder said as he saluted with a standard military gesture. Wilbur looked at the vehicle behind him, then frowned and asked, "What's the meaning of this?" "This is equipment from our branch, and there are a few staff members as well," Ryder explained. "How did you know I was staying here?" Wilbur asked. "The Commander-in-Chief issued orders to the relevant departments in Kardon Province. That's how I was informed," Ryder responded. Wilbur was speechless. 'It must be Orin's doing!' he thought. However, he was shocked by the extensive authority of the Depa
Four staff members began installing the equipment. A circular radar was installed on the roof and various machines were set up within the room. "What are these things?" asked Wilbur. Ryder replied, "A satellite signal receiver, the Skynet Integration System, and the Department of Paranormal Research and Defense's specialized supercomputer." "Oh," Wilbur replied as if he understood. The satellite signal receiver was used to connect satellite signals, which were much more stable than dedicated lines. Wilbur was aware of Skynet. It was a national defense program that connected security cameras throughout the nation. They could surveil any security footage within the nation at any time. Although he was not sure about the specialized supercomputer, he knew it was an effective supercomputer. The set of equipment was more powerful than the equipment used by the provincial departments. It also demonstrated that the authority of the Department of Paranormal Research and Defense
"Damn it," cursed Wilbur. He wondered if something bad happened. "Come in." Ryder walked into the room. Wilbur frowned and looked at Ryder. After a long pause, he asked, "There's nothing to attend to, right?" "As required by the protocol, please come to the office and set up the password," replied Ryder. Wilbur instantly let out a sigh of relief and said, "I thought something bad happened. You gave me a fright." He instantly told Faye and the others to wait, then went to the operation room with Ryder alone. The staff had installed the equipment and left. They were the only two people there. Ryder explained the functions of the equipment, then he asked him to set up various passwords. There was a password for the satellite connection, a password to activate the supercomputer, a secondary password for personal operation, and also a password for self-destruct. Wilbur set up around seven passwords, and they were strong passwords too. 'I'm afraid I can't remember any o
Mariah sat in the office of the station director. She could not believe what was happening to her. She touched the wide office desk, and a smile slowly formed on her face. Her hard work has finally paid off. However, she composed herself after a moment and started to analyze the whole incident. The main focus of her analysis was the censored man in the video posted by Sherry. That person's identity must be quite extraordinary. Even if he was working at Cape, he should be among their elites. However, Faron Campbell was involved with this incident too. That person was surely not ordinary if he had connections to Faron. She thought about it and immediately came up with a plan. She would arrange an exclusive interview with Cape and let Chloe be the interviewer. Mariah was pleased with herself after she finished the proposal. Mariah and Chloe benefitted from the incident, so she went along with the flow in hopes of leaving another good impression on Cape. It was best if
"No. No such thing." She hurriedly waved it off. Wilbur thought that it should not be happening because Nancy was the general manager of the building, and Chelsea had her back. Who would dare mistreat her? "What was that then?" he asked puzzlingly. Nancy shot him a look and led him to a discreet corner. She said uncomfortably, "There had been a lot of rumors ever since I became the general manager. Some of them aren't nice, so I felt a bit embarrassed to see you." He thought about it, and he finally understood what she meant. Basically, there were rumors spreading about them because he helped her become the general manager. The rumors were about Nancy hooking up with a big shot. It was not uncommon in the workplace. He smiled softly and said, "Let them be. We can't control what people say." She silently nodded. "How have you been? Are you doing alright at work?" Wilbur tried to engage in small talk. She nodded and said, "I'm not very familiar with some parts of the
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
