Johnson picked up the activation metal from the ground and walked back to the Satan Robot. Opening the energy port on the right side, he inserted the metal into place. Once back in the cockpit, he saw two energy bars on the display: one was at only ten percent capacity, while the newly appeared bar was at a full one hundred percent. A smirk curled on Johnson's lips as he murmured, "Perfect. Now, Maria, here I come." Just as he was about to pilot the Satan Robot away, Wilbur appeared in the corridor, saying, "Johnson, I finally found you." "Wilbur? You're still alive? What the hell is Fawkes doing? He must be losing his edge." "Johnson, stop what you're doing right now, or I won't hold back." Wilbur began chanting a spell, and the Azure Dragon Spear materialized in his right hand. Meanwhile, Johnson, piloting the Satan Robot, backed away. Seizing a moment when Wilbur was momentarily distracted, Johnson suddenly turned and charged toward the balcony. "You think you can esc
"I accepted you, but you betrayed me,” Johnson's voice was cold, filled with betrayal. Maria, eyes red and brimming with tears, put on a sorrowful expression and pleaded, “No, it’s not what you think, Johnson. Please, listen to me. At the time, I didn’t want any of this. It was Marshall who forced me. That’s why I had no choice but to be with him.” Johnson raised an eyebrow, skepticism creeping into his voice, “So you’re saying you were forced by Marshall into being with him?” “Yes,” Maria nodded, her tears streaming down her cheeks, looking pitifully at Johnson. Seeing her state, Johnson lowered the machine gun in his hand, softening slightly. “It seems I may have wronged you.” Maria sniffled and continued, “Johnson, you must know, I’ve long been deeply in love with you.” She glanced back at him and said, “Go on, leave. I’ll hold off this cultivator, Wilbur.” “Alright, I’m counting on you,” Johnson replied in a tone mixed with relief and determination. Maria pulled out
"He's on the balcony." Wilbur could sense Johnson's whereabouts and was worried that he might damage the building. Now that Johnson was on the balcony, there was much less to worry about. Following that, Wilbur went to the balcony as fast as he could. He looked up and saw Johnson standing on the edge of the balcony overlooking the concrete jungle below. A breeze whipped through the air, and Wilbur asked, "Why aren't you running anymore?" Johnson turned to look at Wilbur. "Because I'd really like to find out if an old-school robot can defeat a real cultivator." A laser blade appeared in Johnson's right robot hand as he charged at Wilbur, swinging the laser blade at him. Just as the laser blade was about to hit Wilbur, he backed away quickly. He leaped onto the Satan Robot's head before stabbing his Azure Dragon Spear into the robot. The spear pierced through the Satan Robot's chest as sparks flew, but what Wilbur expected did not happen. The Satan Robot did not stop. Inste
The strange property of the metal could guarantee the wires in the Satan Robot to function regularly regardless of what happened. Even if its motherboard were to break, the special metal would be able to repair it at top speed and make sure the Satan Robot could continue to function normally. Since internal problems were not a thing for a robot like that, all it needed was just a solid enough exterior shell to protect its controls and the person piloting it from everything else. Despite the fact that many powerful robots had been invented in the past before, they were often easily destroyed and disabled. The slightest bit of damage would render the robot unusable, and it would be thrown out after that. The Satan Robot, however, would change this for good. It was a shame that it made its appearance as an evil robot used for murder, as those robots could not be allowed to exist in the world. Wilbur recalled Beverly's words then. Indeed, killing machines like this were too power
Johnson's eyes widened as he collapsed onto the ground. Wilbur scoffed, unsurprised by Johnson's fate. After all, Wilbur had seen too many ruthless characters who still tried to get the last laugh even after their defeat. The Department of Paranormal Research and Defense had ordered Johnson to be executed on the spot, and so Wilbur had never really planned on sparing his life. Having him die this way was honestly the best way things could go. Wilbur looked up at the Satan Robot before walking up to it to open its source plug on the left and taking out the other activation metal. These two activation metals contained special energy, and Wilbur put them into his demiplane. He called Dennis after that and arranged for the scene to be cleaned up. Dennis arrived at the rooftop balcony of the Harry Hotel with his men not long after. He stared at Johnson dead on the floor in disbelief, shaking his head. "I can't believe a tiny guy standing at barely one hundred thirty centimeters wa
Dickens' colleagues told Wilbur that Professor Dickens had gone to a secret location in the Kosanto military base three months ago for an international assignment. The assignment was supposed to last a year, and Wilbur would have to wait that long if he wanted to see the guy again. Wilbur stood in the Monsato city square, dialing Beverly's number while feeling rather confused. If Professor Dickens was supposed to be in this secret location, wouldn't the Department of Paranormal Research and Defense know about it? And if they did, why would they even have him look for Professor Dickens in the first place? "Hello, Deacon Penn. Is there anything I can help with?" "Beverly, can you help me find out more recent information about Professor Dickens? I went to his house and workplace, but there was no sign of him." "Sure, give me a second." A while later, Beverly's voice rang through the phone once more. "According to the information we have, Professor Dickens has always been in Moda
Wilbur's phone dinged just a minute later. The message contained Fawkes' personal information, as well as some data on Rindo Mine, including its location. Fawkes was hiding in Rindo Mine but was still surfing the internet. That was how Layla found his location. Rindo Mine? Wilbur looked through the data, which said that Rindo Mine came to be a few years ago and was discovered to contain a special metal that reminded Wilbur of the two activation metals at once. The Satan Robot had used the two activation metals to sustain and prolong its functions. Maybe finding more of those metals in that mine could get Wilbur some grace points. Wilbur drove to Rindo Mine at once. He was greeted with endless deserts upon coming out of Monsato, and the spacious roads made the journey to the mine only a little over an hour long. After parking outside the mine, Wilbur used a spell to change his appearance to that of Trevor Penn. The Satan Robot matter seemed to have been dealt with for now,
"Hey, dude. It's still too early now. The Cassidy's only open at night." Wilbur turned to see a muscular porter grinning at him. "Oh, I think you have the wrong idea. I'm not going to The Cassidy, I was just passing by." The porter nodded. "You don't say. Everyone thinks the same thing when they walk past this place." Wilbur's face flushed, and he turned around. "Er, actually… I'm here looking for a job. I've been having some money troubles lately." "I see. What do you do?" "Anything, as long as the price is right." "How about helping me out with moving some things?" "Sure." Wilbur could only say yes and followed the porter to a hotel. There, they loaded the food they had from the truck into the kitchen, which only took half a day with the additional help. Later that afternoon, Wilbur was dragged into playing cards with the porter named Tommy as well as his friends. Wilbur's plan had been to hide his identity anyway, so he played along with everyone without winning
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
