"That's nearly three times the cost for the Dragon Slayer organization. Such a price is not favorable for either of us," Edmund stated. Botani glared at Edmund and asked, "Then why did you still do it?" Edmund replied, "Master, it wasn't my fault. Hanson led the Dragon Slayer members to storm my residence late at night, causing this tragic event. As the lord of Buck Town, I must maintain my dignity. If anyone can intrude into my mansion in the middle of the night, wouldn't I become a laughingstock?" Hearing this, Botani took a deep breath and said, "Hanson once told me that your mansion harbored dragon clan cultivators. I assumed that he intruded at night to search for them and expected you to let him leave out of respect for me." Wilbur and Edmund exchanged surprised glances. They did not expect Botani to be unaware of the true situation. It seemed Hanson, seeking to claim all the credit, had not informed Botani that Edmund himself was a dragon clan cultivator. "However, I d
"Hahaha!" Botani threw his head back, laughing loudly, then continued, "What a rare sight it is for you to have a friend! Let me show you what true power looks like…" "Bring it on! I'm not afraid of you!" Wilbur gritted his teeth, then radiated an enormous amount of energy aura as Edmund did the same as well. Edmund stared at Botani. "Let me go first later, Wilbur. You can attack when the opportunity comes by." "Okay." Botani saw the two men in battle mode and immediately released his energy aura. It was much more powerful than Wilbur and Edmund's, and Botani gritted his teeth as he shouted, "Come on, Edmund!" Edmund charged toward Botani, gripping his sword. Botani's body rumbled violently, and the energy aura around him spread out to crush Edmund's power. At the same time, Edmund's sword had already reached Botani. The next second, Botani raised his hand and caught the blade of the sword with his index finger. He then twisted his wrist and broke Edmund's sword into piec
Edmund coughed twice as he got to his feet and looked at Botani. "Yes, I am one. I just didn't think you'd be so powerful. I don't think I'd be able to beat you on my own even if I was a dragon clan cultivator!" "Hahaha!" Botani threw his head back and laughed. "You're not wrong, Edmund. Forget being my match on your own. You wouldn't be able to take me on even if you teamed up with this guy." "You're pretty cocky," Wilbur said coldly. "Do you really think you can beat us?" Botani sneered, then said, "A dragon clan cultivator will never be a true elite until he learns the secret of the dragon clan. Until then, you're nothing to me. You two are nothing to me! I guess it really is time for Buck Town to get a new lord." Upon saying the words, the energy aura on Botani's body surged outward like a tidal wave, forcing Wilbur and Edmund several steps backward. "What energy is this?" asked Wilbur. Edmund warned, "Watch out. Botani cultivated the dimension laws of dark space. He's
Botani laughed, his eyes wide with glee. "I cultivated my Dark Space Cell for three thousand years, and this is the first time I'm using it. You're both as good as dead! Remember who killed you: the great Botani!" Botani laughed louder and louder, channeling practically all of his power into the black cube. He raised his hands, and the two cubes lifted into the air as well. A powerful wave of energy surged into the black cube as Botani roared, "You're going to be destroyed!" Two explosions echoed through the air as both black cubes exploded. Edmund's body flew out of the cube he was trapped inside in pieces, scattering across the ground. Botani laughed loudly at the sight. However, as he looked up, he saw that Wilbur was still hovering in mid-air completely unharmed. On top of that, Wilbur was also cloaked in a white glow lined with black energy that was steadily absorbing the dark energy around it. Botani was stunned, his mouth agape as he struggled to find the words. "W-Wha
"That's all I needed to hear." Following that, Edmund brought Wilbur to the secret chamber. The next day, the Reyne family put out a notice announcing that their leader Babbit was going into secluded cultivation on his own for a year and would not be seeing anyone. At the same time, City Lord Edmund's quarters also put out a notice that Edmund was going to cultivate in isolation, and his quarters would be closed for the next six months. Both announcements traveled around Buck Town pretty quickly, and it was not long before everyone was talking about what could have happened. "Why would Lord Babbit and Lord Edmund go into isolated cultivation at the same time?" "What's wrong with that? Everyone's a cultivator here in Buck Town. Besides, Lord Babbit is cultivating for a year, and Lord Edmund is cultivating for just six months. They've got nothing to do with each other." "But some members of the Dragon Slayer Organization were just killed, and Lord Edmund was said to be relate
"Besides, Mister Dalton… you need to remember that Lord George is also a dragon clan cultivator. He's bound to think you're disrespecting him if you go looking for Lord Edmund, and a huge battle will break out." Dalton sighed. "Well, what should I do, then?" "Well," said Dino, "The main reason this happened is because a dragon clan cultivator showed up in Buck Town. As long as we find them and kill them, then hang their head on the town gates, we'll just have to tell the people of Buck Town the reason all of this happened, and the misunderstanding will go away on its own. Lord Edmund must've been trying to protect the dragon clan cultivator, and that's why he was willing to cross the Dragon Slayer Organization. Of course, Hanson's methods weren't exactly the best, either." After a brief pause, Dino added, "Since Hanson had insulted Lord Edmund rather badly. I suggest you apologize to Lord Edmund voluntarily, Mister Dalton. That will fix the misunderstanding, and you'll get to hav
George smiled at Wilbur. "What, don't recognize me?" Because of what happened with Botani, Wilbur was still wary of others. He looked coldly at George, saying, "Why should I? I've never seen you in these quarters before. Tell me who you are now!" George said, "Well, I've not seen you here before either, but you're definitely an interesting guy." Just then, Edmund, having sensed George's aura from the secret chamber, walked out. "Oh, it's you, Lord George." "Ha, Edmund! You did something I've wanted to do for a while, but never had the guts to. That Dragon Slayer Organization killed so many of my dragon clan cultivators, and I couldn't even avenge them as City Lord. It really breaks my heart." "Please don't say that, Lord George. Walker Town would not be the place it is without you being its lord. You gave the dragon clan cultivators there a safe space, and that's good enough already." Wilbur was shocked at the words. He had not expected this tall, slender man to be City Lor
Edmund heaved a sigh of relief at the words. After spending some amount of time with Wilbur, Edmund realized that he was truly a man of honor. That was why Edmund had kept Wilbur by his side, and told George that Wilbur was a dragon clan cultivator. That was the only way Edmund's plan would be able to go on. He needed Wilbur to get on George's good side, and the plan would go up in flames if Wilbur was dishonorable and just left for Walker Town. It seemed that things were still within his control. Despite Wilbur not stating his reasons to stay outright, George guessed about as much and smiled. "Alright, then. You can stay in Buck Town for now, but you're always welcome in Walker Town. You can come by whenever you want." "Thank you, Lord George." A lump grew in Wilbur's throat when he heard those words. He had been in the middle dimensions for some years now, throughout which he had been improving his powers with Felix without slacking in the slightest. Hearing Lord George's wor
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
