Adela laughed loudly as he spoke the words, and Augheimer gritted his teeth. "What are you laughing at? Is that supposed to be funny to you?" "Oh, it feels so good to be an elite. You'll never understand the difference between those who make the rules and those who have to abide by them. For all the hard work and time you put into trying to outsmart me, you're still going to end up dead. At the end of the day, you don't have a say in how the rules go." "F*ck, I'm going to kill you!" Ramont roared. Ramont had always been quite a powerful fighter who was also talented. He had never lost a battle throughout his cultivation journey, but Adela still managed to entrap him despite his meticulous schemes. Rage flared up in Ramont's chest, and he gritted his teeth through the pain coursing through his body as he charged toward Adela once more. Just as he was about to get to Adela, Ramont summoned a green sword that he swung at her. At the same time, Adela merely turned his hand over bef
"So, it's you, Wilbur Penn! You've definitely got a death wish, haven't you? Well, I'm happy to grant it!" Adela muttered a spell, and a pillar of black flames shot out of the Ebony Phoenix to wrap around Wilbur. Augheimer's eyes grew bloodshot as he shouted, "No, no!" Ramont grabbed Augheimer. "Don't go over there. It's too late for anything now. We'll just have to leave it up to fate." "This is all my fault, Wilbur! I shouldn't have done this!" Augheimer broke down into sobs all of a sudden. Just then, the black flames were put out as Wilbur emerged, radiating the same white glow all over. "I'm not dead yet, Augheimer," said Wilbur. "I promised you I'd help you finish this, didn't I?" Wilbur leaped into the air, flying toward the Ebony Phoenix. Adela was furious to see this, and shouted, "What are you doing, you bastard? Come back!" Yet Wilbur had already reached the phoenix, touching it with his hands. The Ebony Phoenix began to shrink instantly. Before long, it was co
"How dare you! I'm going to kill you!" Adela released a white light space power all of a sudden, forming a white vortex as both opposing space powers attempted to usurp each other's energy aura. "Hahaha!" Adela laughed all of a sudden. "I have fifty thousand years of cultivation, Wilbur, but you only have thirty thousand. You're not a match for me even if you've mastered the dark space dimensional laws!" Wilbur gritted his teeth. "Help me out here, Augheimer!" "I'm coming!" Augheimer charged up to Wilbur, grabbing Wilbur's right hand as he released dark space power as well. A large vortex formed out of both their dark space powers, devouring Adela's energy aura continuously. Adela only brought one Power Elixir Drop with him this time, and he had used it up. Regret and fury filled his chest as he watched the energy aura drain out of him, unable to do anything. Wrinkles began to form on Adela's skin, his brown hair slowly fading to white. Adela, who had lost the nourishment
"Got it, Lord Ramont." "Take me back to get some rest." Augheimer walked Ramont to his room before coming out to see Wilbur scowling at him. "Why did you do this, Augheimer? You know I always saw you as a friend, and this is how you treat me? You made me help you kill Adela! You know Adela is Odysseus' Senior Guard and killing him is a great offense to Odysseus. You did this to stop me from advancing to the upper dimensions, didn't you?" Augheimer lowered his head. He had known that Wilbur would eventually find out about this, just not so soon. Augheimer would have died just now if Wilbur had not been there, and thus could not retaliate at all. After a brief silence, Augheimer said, "I'm sorry.' "I don't want to hear that! I treated you like a friend, but you used me! This is the last time I'm helping you! We're done!" Wilbur turned to leave after that, and Augheimer sighed as he watched him. Coming out of the ruler's residence, Wilbur did not return to the Robert family.
Wilbur had lost interest in cultivating ever since falling for Augheimer's ploy. Since he could not advance to the upper dimensions, he would not be able to become a servant of the dimensional guardians, and thus could not return to Earth from a few decades ago. Even if he was to return to Earth now, everything he had known there would have changed already. If he could not return to the past, then there was no point in going back at all. Yes, Wilbur would just stay and cultivate in Tevinter Town. It was probably best for him to make more friends, then. That afternoon, Liam introduced Wilbur to a brown-haired cultivator. "This is Teller Andrew, the spirit cultivator sent over by the Andrew family. He'll be living with us from now onwards." Liam then turned to Teller and said, "This is Trevor Penn, the Robert family's dragon clan cultivator." Wilbur and Teller exchanged glances, nodding at each other in acknowledgment. Teller's gaze looked strangely familiar to Wilbur as they l
It was clear that both plans were riddled with difficulties, but Augheimer at least seemed to have realized that he had screwed up. Wilbur gave it some thought and then decided to meet Augheimer at the bar as written in the letter. After all, Augheimer had been waiting for three days now. Wilbur arrived at the bar and headed upstairs, where he saw Augheimer. Augheimer got to his feet, gesturing to Wilbur as the two men sat down. Augheimer immediately said, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that to you. I'm going to make it up to you by helping you advance to the upper dimensions. From what I know, there are three upper dimensions. Each upper dimension is a world of its own, and those three worlds are connected to form the upper dimensions." "I know that," Wilbur said, cutting Augheimer off. "We can talk about heading to the upper dimensions another day. I think it's more important for us to discuss the situation with Adela first." "Well, Lord Odysseus of Light Town is known t
Augheimer was no fool, and Wilbur felt like he had lost himself after receiving help for what he had encountered in the middle dimensions. If Augheimer was just willing to think about it properly, he would quickly realize that Ramont was no friend of his. "Well, I'm going to read up more about the dimension portal in Tevinter Town in the time to come. You're welcome to advance to the upper dimensions with me anytime you want to." Augheimer lowered his head wordlessly, and Wilbur got up to leave. He headed to the bookstore after that, asking for any books that contained information on the old dimensional portal in Tevinter Town. He was able to find out that this portal was once located on the peak of Mount Bronc, the tallest mountain in the Cavette Mountains. Tevinter might be a town of violence reeking of murder and bloodshed, but the extreme temperatures of the Cavette Mountains made it rather deserted. There were few people who went there, making the Cavette Mountains pretty mu
The two men seemed to be discussing a transaction of sorts. After a brief conversation, the red-haired man handed a storage ring to Conrad. They parted ways then, heading in different directions. Wilbur emerged from behind the tree. He looked to the left, then the right before running in the direction Conrad had headed. Conrad was despicable, but Edmund was ultimately Wilbur's biggest enemy. Wilbur did not want to cause any alarm, so he just followed Conrad all the way back to Tevinter Town. Perhaps Conrad might lead him to Edmund. Unfortunately, Wilbur lost Conrad at a junction on the way back. He looked around, but Conrad was nowhere to be seen. It was getting darker, and Wilbur ended up heading back to the Robert family. Ramos handed Wilbur another letter as soon as he got back, and he opened it back in his room. Augheimer had written to him saying that Odysseus had already sent his men over to ask about Adela. Ramont had told them that Adela had planned to stay in Tevinter
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
