The rest of the Yves family was about to wet themselves. They were as good as dead if anything were to happen to Justin. "Put Mister Yaegar down, now!" Asher was beside himself in panic, shaking as he called out to Wilbur. Wesley and Freddie were panicking too. They wanted to go up to Wilbur, but his hand was wrapped around Justin's neck and one wrong move could end up causing irreversible damage. The Eagle City Princes could hardly believe their eyes. Yes, they were hoping that Wilbur would cause a scene, but Justin's safety was at risk now. If Justin were to lose his temper, everyone here was going to get it. All three men stood in a flurry and shouted, "Put Mister Yaegar down! Are you out of your mind?" Wilbur glanced at the people around him. The Yves family was shocked, enraged, and terrified at the same time. The Eagle City Princes were scared out of their wits as well. The other guests were completely shell-shocked, standing there in a daze. Who knew how many
Now that things had gone south, he was blaming all of it on her. It was unfair. Yet he was the senior, and there was nothing Faye could do but hold back her indignance. She took a deep breath and was about to try again to make her grandfather take the elixir. However, Asher was completely oblivious, turning to Wesley and saying, "Have the guests leave. We'll wait for Master Braxton. I'll offer my life as an apology to him and Mister Clark." Wesley had no choice but to go to the podium and announce to the crowd shakily that the banquet was over. The crowd wanted nothing more than to get out of here. This was the epicenter of the disaster, and none of them wanted to be dragged into the mess. Just as they were getting up, Justin shouted, "No one's leaving! Stay where you are." Despite being restrained physically, Wilbur had not taken away Justin's ability to speak. His words made the crowd sit back down obediently. No one dared to go against Justin's words unless they had
Braxton's expression flushed slightly with anger as well. He would have already massacred them if it had not been for his son's safety. Yet he was experienced enough to be able to calm himself down, saying, "Buddy, just tell me what it is you want, and I'll do my best to satisfy you. You're only getting yourself into more trouble if you keep going. The government's power is not to be underestimated. You shouldn't get cocky just because you're a good fighter. I'd think this through if I were you." Braxton's words were both a threat and advice. They were not spoken to provoke the opponent but did not imply a surrender in any form either. The crowd nodded. The hotel was surrounded, and Braxton had shown up personally with a team of elites. All the weapons were aimed over here. The sound of the helicopters alone was enough to bear down on the crowd. Wilbur was a dead man for sure. So, what if he had Justin right now? If things were to get ugly, the crowd was certain that Braxto
Just to be safe, Braxton still said, "In that case, buddy, I'm sure you won't mind if I make a call to Mister Grayson and ask him about you, right?" "Of course not. Go ahead, Master Braxton," Wilbur smiled. Braxton nodded. He walked over to a corner, took out his phone, and dialed a number. Not long after, the call connected, and Braxton hurried to say, "Mister Grayson! Is this a bad time?" "Ah, Brax. I was just about to take a nap. What's the matter?" "Sorry for disturbing you, Mister Grayson. A young man named Wilbur Penn came looking for me and told me about the message you had for me. I just thought I'd call you to say that I haven't forgotten my roots. I promise to keep a pure heart in my position of power and use it to give people a better life. I'll never forget what you taught me." "Well, it's great that you remember that. I've retired now, but people like you worry me the most. You're in a position of power, and every move you make is a representation of our nation
The Yves family was shell-shocked. Who was this Wilbur guy, and how was he powerful enough to have Braxton act so meek all of a sudden? Faye heaved a sigh of relief at last. It seemed like Wilbur was in control of the situation now, and she could not help but let out a proud smile. Fabian stared coldly at his family, smirking to himself while also marveling at Wilbur's power once again. Fabian could see how Wilbur had Seechertown wrapped around his finger, but to take down Braxton so easily… that was something else. It seemed like Fabian had still underestimated Wilbur. Yet he was still proud in the very end to have such a capable son-in-law who was able to get the situation under control so easily. Now, Asher was finally going to realize who was the real hero of the Yves family, and who were the useless good-for-nothings. Wilbur chuckled, retracting the spiritual restraint he imposed on Justin. "Yes, it was just a misunderstanding. I had no choice but to restrain Justin beca
Amidst his shock, Asher managed to ask shakily, "C-Could I please know which Mister G-Grayson you're talking about here?" "Benjamin Grayson, of course," Braxton smiled. Asher went pale at once. There were many old men with the last name of Grayson in Dasha, but there was only one Benjamin Grayson. He was the founding father of Dasha, one of the most powerful people in the nation who had fought for Dasha's freedom. It turned out that he was friends with this Wilbur guy. It was no wonder Braxton had turned so meek at once. The Yves family stared at Wilbur in shock, fearing for their lives. If they could not afford to even mess with Justin, Wilbur was out of the question. With how the Yves family had treated Wilbur, who knew if he might get angry and demand compensation? Yet Wilbur merely picked up the Elixir of Life once again, walking up to Asher with a smile. "Grandpa, it wasn't easy for me to get this. You're not in good shape, so I really think you should take it be
The Yves family members exchanged glances. Braxton really was putting Wilbur on the highest of pedestals here. Then again, of course he would. Wilbur had Mister Grayson on his side, after all. Wilbur smiled. "I wouldn't go as far as to teach him a lesson. We can be friends, though." "That works too! Justin, have a drink with your friend." Justin hurried to raise his glass, toasting Wilbur respectfully. Wilbur drained his glass and turned to look at the Eagle City Princes. These men had long been scared out of their wits, standing there in a daze. Wilbur turned out to be someone even Justin could not afford to mess with, and they had offended him greatly. What was going to happen to them now? Just then, Braxton frowned. "I told you before not to be so close to those businessmen. It doesn't look good for you at all. Tell them to leave." "Yes, Dad." Justin waved a hand, and the Eagle City Princes ran for their lives. It could be said that Braxton had actually protected
"You're not wrong there," the old man said in a deep voice. "We did swear to that, but where are these forces of chaos and what do they look like? I don't think anyone aside from our founders knows, so how are we supposed to do anything?" "We can go looking for them if we don't know where or what they are. What about the Skull Cult? The Church of Bloodism? Don't they count?" Eileen responded. The old man seemed unaffected by the interrogation. "Elder Fall, we haven't been strong enough to go outside since we lost our founders. I'm glad you can protect yourself against these groups, but surely you can't expect everyone to put themselves at risk?" Eileen leaned back in her chair. "We will never be as powerful as our founders, but don't you think it's too much that the Skull Cult was in the country for so many years and we did nothing about it?" "Well, the Skull Cult's been taken down now, hasn't it?" the old woman said. Eileen replied, "It has been taken down, but not by us."
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
