Revenge of the Night Chapter 23 Queenie Is Back
Right after Queenie left, Hogs' screams of rage could be heard coming from his study. "That damned brat! She thinks she owns the family just because she knows Alexander? Damn her!"Sounds of things being smashed came from the study next. Hogs was furious this time."Calm down, Dad. This is just her final struggle. Once she marries Silas, the family will be fully under our control," Jezebiah said.Hogs held his fury back. A while later, he said, "You're right, but something feels off. How did she manage to get in touch with someone like Alexander?""I think it's probably Silas," Jezebiah said."Silas?""Yeah. Think about it, Dad. Aside from Centersea, who else has the privilege of getting in touch with Empire Corp?"Hogs thought that was a good point. "Let's say that Silas was behind this. Why isn't he letting us keep the girl locked up then?" That was something Hogs couldn't understand.Jezebiah rubbed his chin. "Maybe he really likes her and didn't want us to punish her."Hog
Revenge of the Night Chapter 24 The Innocent Queenie
Queenie thought an amnesiac staying in an unfamiliar place alone would end up in chaos. Nox could've run around aimlessly, but he stayed at the mansion, much to her surprise.Nox looked at Queenie and smiled. "I didn't run. I was waiting for you.""Not bad. You're smart for waiting. If you had run off, I wouldn't have tried to find you or anything." Queenie put her bag down. "Hello, Blackshark. Miss me?"Queenie ran to her mastiff and patted his head. The mastiff nudged toward Nox."Thank you, Nono." Queenie got up."What did you just call me?" Nox was flabbergasted."Nono. Because you're Nox, aren't you?" Queenie asked.Nox was speechless. He was the god of war of Faeast, and yet this girl just gave him a ridiculous nickname."Thanks for saving me and teaching that bastard a lesson," Queenie said.Nox didn't really mind what Queenie called him. He smiled. "No problem."Worried, Queenie muttered, "But that bastard's one heck of a petty a-hole. I wouldn't put anything past him
Revenge of the Night Chapter 25 Queenie Is Confident
Queenie obviously didn't see that smile and continued talking. "Have you heard of Empire Corp? It's owned by Riverton's richest man, Alexander Weeks. He's a multibillionaire. I never thought the day would come when I would have connections with Empire Corp's CEO. He claims he knows me though, and says he could deal with all my problems."She ended with a question. "Don't you think that's weird, Nono?"Nox smiled. "Not exactly.""Not exactly? Do the words 'richest man in Riverton' and 'multibillionaire' mean nothing to you?" Queenie pointed at her mansion. "See this place? If Alexander's wealth gets turned into money, it can fill this whole place up and then some. Do you get it now?"Nox smiled, but he didn't tell Queenie the truth."Forget it. Not like you'll understand anyway. You lost all your memories." Queenie didn't want to waste time explaining. The amnesiac mechanic couldn't possibly understand how much money billions was."Still, it's a happy day for me. I finally got to
Revenge of the Night Chapter 26 A Brilliant Plan
Queenie continued her explanation.Nox said, "But no one in Empire Corp said anything about taking a liking to you."Queenie smiled cunningly. "Oh no, you don't know the half of it. It doesn't matter who took a liking to me. What matters is they came to me. I have no idea why, but neither does my family.""Huh? What are you getting at?"Queenie chuckled mischievously. "Simple. I just need to get a random guy and say he's Alexander's son or relative."Nox thought, 'Wait, you're going to find an impostor and put on an act?' He was speechless."Yeah. Think about it. My family's as confused as I am. No one knows why Empire Corp sought me out, not even my scumbag of an uncle. If I tell them Empire Corp's heir took a liking to me, they would have to take my word for it," Queenie said, intelligence twinkling in her eyes.Nox smiled dryly. He thought, 'She is going the extra mile just to get away from Silas. Even came up with an elaborate plan of getting a fake heir to act things out, b
Revenge of the Night Chapter 27 The Shopping Trip
Nox thought, 'What? She wants me to be Alex's godson?' He almost exploded in awkwardness. "I don't think that's a good idea," he said."Why not? You're tall and handsome, and you have the perfect air. No one's better for the role than you." Queenie tugged on Nox. "Please, Nono, please? I fished you out of the sea, after all. At least repay my kindness, won't you? Please."Nox watched the pleading Queenie and felt speechless. In his mind, he thought, 'She wants me to pretend I'm Alexander's godson? Dear God. Even if I take the challenge, Alexander won't accept it because it would be too much of an honor for him.'Queenie was still pleading. "Nono, please. Just help me."Seeing Queenie like this, Nox smiled bitterly. "Fine. I'll do this just once. Because you saved me.""Really?""Yes, but just once."Queenie leaped in joy. "Thank you, Nono! You're my savior!" She hugged him tightly.She had a voluptuous body, and Nox could feel her chest against his. It was big.Queenie didn't
Revenge of the Night Chapter 28 Queenie's Play
Yet another thing he had to learn was how to act haughty like a bona fide scion. "Listen up, Nono. You're the godson of Riverton's richest man, so you don't have to care what anyone thinks about you. You have to present yourself as a gentleman and as someone with culture. But most importantly, as someone with money."Hearing that, Nox wanted to curse. He used to be the commander of two million soldiers, but now a girl was teaching him how to present himself as someone with culture and money, too!More than two agonizing hours later, Queenie's throat was getting sore. "Did you understand everything I just said?"Nox nodded with a smile."Good. I'm taking you home now." Queenie picked up her bag."Now? I think it's a bit too soon," Nox said."Too soon? I'm getting married to Silas in two days." She yanked Nox away and took him back home. On the way back, she kept telling him to keep up a perfect act. Failure was not acceptable."And talk less. I'll speak up in your place. This is
Revenge of the Night Chapter 29 The Act Begins
In the great hall of the Sanders Residence stood Nox and Queenie. Nox was in an expensive suit, looking like the scion of a big family. Queenie was breathing nervously. She kept telling herself to calm down, while Nox looked at ease."Remember, you're the godson of Alexander, Nono. Don't get spooked. Don't let them expose you."Nox smiled. He wouldn't be spooked by something of this level. It was juvenile.Footsteps approached them. Queenie knew it was her parents coming. She slowly turned around and met her angry parents' gaze. Quickly, she said, "Hey, Dad. Hey, Mom."George ignored his daughter. Instead, he looked at Nox sharply. "Who is he?" He didn't recognize the transformed Nox at first."He's the one who's been with me all this time, Dad."George finally recognized Nox. "You? I recognize you! Who let you bring him back? Have you no shame, Queenie? You're bringing your lover back to our home? One of these days, you'll be the death of me and your mother!" He flew into a rage
Revenge of the Night Chapter 30 The Act Goes On
"Don't underestimate my boyfriend, Dad. Do you know why Empire Corp sent its head steward to our house this morning?"George felt something getting stuck in his throat, but he said, "What do you mean?"Queenie answered, "Isn't it obvious? Dad, Mom, to tell you the truth, my boyfriend is Alexander's godson. His name is Nox Greenshade."The news was like a bombshell. George and Yvette were petrified. They couldn't believe Nox was Alexander's godson.When they looked at him once more, Yvette and George didn't know what to say.Nox finally spoke up. "Hey, Mr. and Mrs. Sanders."George remained stunned for nearly twenty seconds while staring at Nox with widened eyes. "A-Are you really Alexander's godson? The godson of the richest man in Riverton?"Nox nodded with a smile. At the same time, far, far away in the resplendent halls of Watercloud Villa, Alexander sneezed. This was not the kind of honor he could take without suffering any repercussions.George couldn't believe his eyes, and Yvett

"You're going nowhere! Die!" The Sovereigns chased after the spirit, and a hundred rulers followed. They trapped the Titan's spirit and ripped him to shreds."Holy shit! That's the ancient Faeastian Sovereigns for you!" White Tiger roared with pride. He was on the roof of a tower somewhere.Emperor Elijah narrowed his eyes and exchanged a look with the other Sovereigns. He hurled the remaining essence of the Titan's spirit to White Tiger and stuffed him with it. The energy filled White Tiger up, and he ballooned. Black, rancid energy came out of his body, and he fell into madness.Nox cast Heaven's Demise and sealed White Tiger's consciousness. The Ice Temple Lord, realizing what the Sovereigns were trying to do, encased White Tiger in a coffin of magic ice."This is an impressive underling you have, Nine-State Lord. Devouring spirits gives him power. Anyone else would've lost their minds and become a killing machine, but White Tiger's already mad to begin with. There's no further

"The third kind of Emperor uses natural energy, the power of Yin and Yang, and the elements to become one. Since they use all kinds of elements and energy to become an Emperor, they are practically invincible."The Ice Temple Lord was excited. "So, you're saying I'm the strongest kind of Emperor?"Nox was speechless. "No, what I was trying to say was you took the wrong path. You could've absorbed the energy in the heavens, but you absorbed the Yin energy in the ground. You're stronger than Frostmir, but his level was higher, so you'd still be no match for him." Nox pursed his lips."Eh?" The Ice Temple Lord was disappointed. He thought he could be on par with Nox once he became an Emperor. The Ice Temple Lord wasn't the only one who gained power. The Ice Temple cultivators did as well. Black Tortoise, White Tiger, and Vermilion Bird gained a lot of power, too.Vermilion Bird was now a Flawless Supreme, Black Tortoise was an Advanced Supreme, while White Tiger was an Intermediate Pi
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1984 New Emperor
The fact that Nox could cast Sovereign Seal showed the Ice Temple Lord a new level of power. The Sovereign was more terrifying than the gods. 'No wonder they could rule the world in ancient times.'The ancient Sovereigns and rulers of Faeast attacked their enemies. The fate of Faeast gathered over their heads, piercing the clouds that hung over them. The weaker monsters were all slain, and Emperor Hans pierced the pharaoh with his spear, returning him to dust.Emperor Blade killed the god of another ancient civilization. The evil energy possessing them was purified. Moments later, the only gods left were the Titans. Unlike the possessed gods, the Titans were ancient cultivators.Even if they didn't master any spells or techniques, they'd trained their bodies to their absolute best. The Sovereigns and rulers didn't have much advantage against these enemies.These spirits were only summoned through the relics and the remnants of energy left within. Their bodies were gone, and their s
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1983 The Emperors
The talismans were Magic Mountain's Forbidden Art, and Nox had fused them with Ultimate Sun Dragon Manual. Nox's mentors back in Mystia had taught him the Sovereign Seal earlier than expected.Their goal was simple. If Nox became the Sovereign, he could use the seal to command all the natural energy around him. If he didn't become the Sovereign, he would teach the Sovereign how to use the seal.The Sovereign Seal was a Saintly technique and the most ancient technique around. It was stronger than a Celestial technique.A golden seal brighter than the sun slowly rose into the air. It was the Sovereign Seal.As it appeared, natural energy gathered around it. The energy flew into the relics Brundela took from Faeast. Within a museum not open to the public, a bronze sword started to tremble as natural energy flowed into it. That got the attention of a professor."That sword belonged to Faeast's Emperor Elijah! What is going on?"A silhouette came out of the sword, and his aura was maj

Back in the navy command center, Fergus got the drone footage of Brundela's latest development. There were a few generals from the Nox Army with him. They could see that the monsters in the capital were far stronger than the ones they took out."It's a pity the capital is too densely populated. We have the weapons, but we can't use them." Fergus slammed the table in frustration. Even if the capital were to fall into enemy hands and the people torn apart by the monsters, Fergus could not order his men to fire at the capital, or things would be bad for them.Fergus could only open fire if the monsters were in a no man's land."Commander Parrish, the lord has orders. We are to keep the waters guarded. Once the capital's crisis is over, we are to make our way to the port and give humanitarian aid," a Nox Army general said telepathically. He just got Nox's orders."Is that so? Then Nox can stop this crisis." Fergus' eyes shone. He had no idea what Nox was planning, but he was the Sovere
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1981 An Army of Monsters
Demons were walking the lands of Brundela. Legendary creatures were roaming the streets as if the end of days were here. The resurrected monsters were causing chaos everywhere. When the Titans showed themselves, despair washed over Brundela.There were too many monsters running around. Even after the Twilight Order and Ice Temple cultivators sent out everyone they had, it still wasn't enough to stop these creatures. The monsters went straight to the council hall, and so did the Titans.The Ice Temple Lord created a Magic Ice Formation and kept using Forbidden Arts and mystical artifacts to fend off the enemies. He had already done his best."You have to do something, Nine-State Lord. I can't hold on much longer!" the Ice Temple Lord said telepathically.Though monsters were about, they were not a threat to the Ice Temple Lord. he could leave anytime he wanted, but he had a deal with Nox. If he were to desert the battlefield, he would face a hell far worse than he could imagine late

Their targets were the relics around the altars. The moment the whirlpool showed up, the black energy conjured black walls and kept Brundela on lockdown, cutting off all communications.Possessed by evil spirits, gods from ancient civilizations came back to life. In the underground graveyard, the dead came bursting out of their coffins, and skeletons with phantom flames flickering around them charged at the holy knights and James' secret agents.Nothing more needed to be said. The holy knights' leader led the charge. The other knights resolved to fight to the death as they battled the skeleton gods.James and his secret agents fired off at the enemies, but the bullets did nothing to the skeletons. All they managed was to light a big spark. Only grenades and howitzers could deal damage to them, and even then, the damage was light.The battle was fierce. Though the knights did not fear death, they were still weaker than the prehistoric gods. These skeletons were nigh invincible, and

Nox was hovering higher than the Ice Temple Lord, and he got everyone's attention."Who's that?""It's a Faeastian!""My God, it's the Nine-State Lord!" Nox was known throughout Faeast and the world. Brundela's council members had recognized him the moment he showed up. They had nothing but fear for gods, yet Nox was the strongest man in the Mortal World, so they respected him.The clouds in Brundela's skies were hanging heavily over the ground, and the icy aura they radiated was making everyone shiver. Winter seemed to have come early for Brundela. The temperature was dipping fast.Back in the control center, intelligence agents were watching the surveillance footage closely, and they noticed the altar. The Twilight Order and Ice Temple cultivators were there, strengthening the altars' seal the best they could. There were soldiers guarding the altar as well.For some reason, the secret agents had a feeling something bad was going to happen. Murphy's Law, as they said.Suddenly,

A sliver of energy flew out of the puppet and gathered natural energy around it. Then, the temperature rose at a blistering rate. Fortunately, Bard's reminder came just in time, and Vermilion Bird was prepared for this. She led her team away from the spot.A pillar of fire engulfed the building, and heat waves shot off in every direction, lethal and deadly. The light eventually faded, and all buildings in a few hundred yards were razed to the ground.If Vermilion Bird had killed the puppet without thinking just now, she would have lost all her men and suffered serious injuries. "That bitch! I'm going to make her into a human swine one day! I'll give her hell!" she cursed.Bard gasped. 'Yeah, women can be really terrifying.' Not one General was a normal person.This incident didn't escape Nox, of course. He saw it through his divine sense. "Heh, you can't fight the flow of history? You say that, Aphrodite, but you've done the same thing more than once. Schemes and plots when your ey
