However, Wilbur remained cool as a cucumber and asked, "Who is Mister Dune? Why did you abduct those people?" "Mister Dune is the best Sanctuary level cultivator in Aroma, Stiles Dune. He runs all the underground forces of Aroma. He knew I came here to collect debt, so he instructed me to abduct a few rich businessmen, and I agreed," replied Christopher in a panicked tone. "Where are they?" asked Wilbur coldly. Christopher said cautiously, "I told someone to take them to Stiles Dune. I don't know their specific location." Wilbur scoffed coldly and walked towards Zedeck, saying with a big smile, "There's our clue." Zedeck was thoroughly impressed with Wilbur at that moment. He did not expect him to have progress in just a few hours. The South Market police, special agents, and detectives could not find any clues for days. He thought that Wilbur truly deserved to be buddies with Mister Grayson. His capabilities and wits were beyond impressive. Zedeck nodded and said, "T
Christopher wanted to beat them up when he saw that. However, Wilbur intervened and said, "Let's go. We have business to attend to." Christopher let it be and followed Wilbur to the elevator. The man laughed out loud and asked, "What the hell? Who does he think he is?" Wilbur entered the elevator, and they arrived at the reserved room. Wilbur had to admit that it was more luxurious than any presidential suite he stayed in. The room had a sky roof, a spa bathroom, top-notch furniture, and all sorts of high-end devices. It was extremely glamorous. Wilbur looked around and was amazed by the facilities. However, he soon sat on the sofa and told Christopher, "I'll get straight to the point. I only spared your life because you're slightly useful." Christopher kept nodding. "We're all cultivators, so we speak with our powers. Go and tell Stiles Dune that I, Trevor Penn, will fight him. He has to release the hostages if I win, and that will be the end of it. I will pay what
There were all sorts of games that one could imagine. Wilbur strolled around and thought about exchanging some chips to gamble. Suddenly, he heard a voice, "Sir, are you alone?" He turned around and saw a tall and slim woman in her twenties. She had refined makeup on and looked stunning in her cargo mini-skirt. The woman shot a smile at Wilbur. Wilbur smiled slightly and replied, "Yes." "I'm the receptionist here. My name is Tiff Kirk. I can help you if you need anything." The girl had a wonderful smile, and she did not look like she was working. Wilbur asked curiously, "What do you mean you said you can help me with anything?" "I can resolve any problems you're facing. All you have to do is have fun," Tiff replied with a smile. Wilbur nodded and said, "Alright. I want to exchange some chips. Can you take me there?" "Of course! What is your name?" "My surname is Penn." "Follow me, Mister Penn." Tiff smiled and led the way. She swayed when she walked, and it was ve
"Did I win?" Wilbur asked with a grin. Tiff was stunned for a moment. She quickly replied, "You hit the jackpot, sir! You just won more than ten thousand dollars." "Oh, I guess it's my lucky day," Wilbur responded with a chuckle. Tiff helped Wilbur collect the coins while saying, "Sir, you're truly lucky. You shouldn't waste it all here. Please go and play something else." "Do you girls get commissions for playing with the guests?" asked Wilbur with a smile. Tiff also smiled and replied, "Yes, sir. We earn commissions from exchanging chips or cash refunds. It's our main income source. We don't have a fixed wage." Tiff did not hide the truth, and Wilbur understood it too. Otherwise, the girls had no reason to keep a guest company all the time. Wilbur knew a thing or two about the casino. Winning was temporary. There would come a time when you would lose everything if you kept gambling. The casino had seemingly endless funds, but the gamblers had limited cash. It wa
The odds of drawing 19 were harder than winning the lottery. They felt like they would lose for sure. As expected, everyone tossed their cards and complained when it was time to reveal their cards. However, Wilbur revealed his cards slowly. He had drawn 19. "Damn." The man next to Wilbur could not help but curse out loud. The other gamblers were stunned. They felt like Wilbur was very lucky. Tiff's jaw dropped. How lucky could he possibly be? She could not believe he was actually able to draw 19. The dealer won against the four other players but lost to Wilbur. Wilbur instantly had a pile of chips in front of him. The dealer started to shuffle the cards with a shuffling machine. A new round started after the shuffling noises. The man next to Wilbur stood up and left the table. He stood on the side to watch. There were only four players left. Everyone placed their bets. Wilbur thought about it and bet nearly 400 thousand dollars' worth of chips. Everyone
Everyone focused on the dealer's card. The dealer had fifteen in value. She clearly wanted to give it a shot by asking for another card. Wilbur had placed a large bet, after all. The other players had only bet around ten thousand dollars, which was insignificant in comparison. The dealer asked for a card because she would lose. She had to gamble for 21. The dealer was also playing as the house, so she drew a card for herself. It was a three. The dealer had 18 in total, which meant she won against the three other players, but would still lose to Wilbur. "Card." The dealer started to draw a card for herself again. Everyone felt nervous and tense at that point. If the dealer's cards reached 21, Wilbur would regret it immediately because he was a gambler who relied on luck. That would be interesting to watch. "House went bust. Lost to all." The dealer announced the result with a nonchalant expression. It was clear that she was experienced. Everyone cheered at th
Wilbur could only use the ace as one in value for the cards he had. The ace was drawn to the card set that had 15 in total. It would be overboard if he used it as ten in value. Wilbur had 16 in total for both sets of cards. It was a tough position to be in as the values were neither here nor there. However, the dealer had an advantage, so he had an extremely high chance of losing. It was in the rules that the player had limited draws after splitting the cards. Which meant Wilbur could only have three cards in each set. His cards had reached that limit, so he was not allowed to draw more cards, which meant those were his final values. It was the dealer's turn. The dealer showed her cards, she had ten in total. She needed to draw another card. "Card." The dealer called out before drawing another card for herself. It was a two. The dealer only had 12 in total, and it was not enough to win against Wilbur. However, the dealer had greater odds of winning. She
Wilbur just could not understand what problem these guys had with him. Just then, another guy said, "I hate uncultured bastards like you the most, trying to act like you're all that just because you won that little bit of money. I bet you're gonna go back and show off after this." "Even if I was uncultured, how is it any of your business?" Wilbur asked. "I just hate low-class people like you with no culture. What are you going to do about it, hm?" the man jeered. Wilbur's expression darkened, but Tiff hurried to say, "Why don't we just head back now, sir? These chips are getting really heavy for me to carry." Wilbur sneered, turning to leave as Tiff followed behind him. "Ha, I knew there wasn't much else to an idiot like that. Come on, let's sit down to play," said the man as he waved a hand to his friends. Wilbur and Tiff returned to Wilbur's room. Tiff put the chips on the table with a smile. "You've got the best luck I've seen this far, Mister Penn." "Well, it's ju
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
