Something inside the cube rang out. The explosion didn't even make it do anything, but Nineve's kick got a response out of it. Everyone wondered why, but then the sounds of gears turning came from the cube.

Kirin gasped. "Maybe the empress is hiding inside. Or maybe the cultivators locked her in there." No one knew the real reason. Not even Nox's divine sense could see what was inside the cube.

"No idea, but the cube's big enough to hold one person," said Nox.

"A prison. That's the best you can come up with. She did not lose the battle, you know. To an extent, her spell worked. If she spreads it across the world, she'll be its one and only ruler, but I don't believe a spell that perfect exists. An unimaginable price must be paid for it, and it's a price we cannot afford," said Aphrodite.

Kirin was about to bristle, but Aphrodite approached the cube and touched it. Blinding light reflected from its surface. The light rippled outward, and crisscrossing lines split the cube's surface

    "I don't know, but it's worth a shot," said Aphrodite. She then tried to solve the thing like it was a Rubix cube. Every surface had three hundred squares. Solving it was a huge project. Patience alone wasn't enough. They need brains. No one in the team but Aphrodite could do this.Nox used to play standard Rubix cube when he was a kid. That thing had a formula to it. Master the technique, and it could be solved easily, but unless someone took the time to learn it, solving it without any help would be hard. If Nox had to do it, they could never solve the puzzle.He didn't even memorize the runes' arrangements. He could spend his whole life solving the cube, and he would still fail. Everyone knew how difficult this thing was, so no one pushed Aphrodite."Good thing you saved her, milord. No one could have solved this cube otherwise," Kirin said telepathically.Nox answered, "Perhaps, but if she wasn't around, I'd brute force my way through. Anything man-made can be destroyed through

    The nation of Faeast was in mourning, lamenting the death of Lord Nox.Queenie Sanders sat on the beach of Riverton. She was in a bikini, revealing all her perfect curves, but her brows were furrowed as she stared at her phone."Mourning? In the morning? And the whole Internet does it? Who's the deceased? Why's everyone going so far for him?"Queenie stared at the screen for five minutes before she clicked on the headlines. She was met with a big title in red, but all of them talked of the same thing across different news outlets."Today, we mourn the death of a god of war. The day before, our Lord fell into the ambush of ten nations' warriors, and he was felled in the Ocean of Death."So great was the battle it drenched the ocean crimson. So terrible was the battle that corpses decorated the ocean's surface."Even though Lord Nox has fallen, he took down a million soldiers from the enemies' nations all by himself."Queenie's jaw dropped, her eyes still glued to the headlines.

    The man was unconscious, buffeted by the waves. The kind Queenie went straight to saving the stranger. Fortunately, she was a decent swimmer. With one hand, she dragged the man, and with the other, she swam toward the shore.Her strength was all but expended, but Queenie finally got the man to the shore. A long sigh escaped her lips, and Queenie checked for breathing. He was breathing, but barely. He's alive?Queenie looked at the stranger once more. He was lying on his belly, his clothes drenched and soggy. Queenie flipped the man over, and she was stunned by his looks.The man's face was the color of clouds, possibly because of his soaking in the sea for a long time. His lines were sharp, his features handsome. "He's hot." Queenie felt her heart race, but she wasn't one to fawn over every handsome man she came across. She took a deep breath and quickly did CPR for the man.A few dozen repetitions later, the man's breathing felt stronger. Queenie had saved him. "Finally."She heaved

    "Dad? Uncle George? Why are you here?" Queenie was stumped. She couldn't believe it was her dad and uncle here."What are you doing, Queenie? And who is this man?" George roared. He almost had a stroke seeing his daughter together with a naked man in bed.Queenie finally realized why her father was reacting hugely. She quickly stood up and said, "Don't take this the wrong way, Dad. I don't know this man.""What? You don't know this man? And you slept with him? Are you mad?" George roared."Listen to me, Dad. I don't know him. He's—"Queenie was about to explain herself, but Hogs sneered. "Well, well, well, George. Your daughter slept with a total stranger, and on the cusp of her wedding with Centersea's heir. Now tell me, how should we deal with her?"George was shivering in rage, his eyes crimson. "What did I do to deserve this? You insolent child. What have you done? How dare you?"George raised his hand against his child, but just before the slap could land, someone grabbed George's

    Queenie got changed and kept watch over the unconscious stranger. He was handsome if anything, and he had the air of a king. If he wasn't out cold, he would be the man of every woman's dream. "Who is he, and why was he in the ocean? And how did he send my family's bodyguards flying that easily?"Those questions and more were racing in Queenie's mind. Driven by curiosity and something else, Queenie wanted to know more about the man before her, but eventually, Queenie rested her head on the edge of the bed and fell asleep.She heard something rustle, and groggily, Queenie opened her eyes. What she saw made her shout.The man had awoken and was standing right in front of her. Scared, Queenie quickly scuttled backward and asked with caution, "W-What do you want?"The stranger had a dazed look in his eyes. He scanned his surroundings before turning his attention to Queenie. "Who are you? What is this place?" He had a deep, husky voice, but there was confusion in his tone."Queenie Sand

    Queenie sighed again and looked at Nox. "Fine. You're hot, so I'll finish what I started. No matter what happens, I'm taking you back to town, and then it's straight to the hospital."See if we can get your memory back. And please explain everything to my family if you do," Queenie said."I'm going to pack my stuff and make preparations to return to the city. You watch some TV or whatever. Don't run around, and don't touch my stuff." Queenie turned on the TV for Nox.Nox nodded dumbly and turned to the TV. It was airing the Battle of the Ten Nations, specifically the part where the Ocean of Death was concerned.Black smoke billowed from the fleet of battleships, and countless aircraft were swirling around overhead.Amidst the smoke and screams of war, the warriors of Faeast were fending off the invaders from the ten nations.The moment Nox saw that, his mind went blank, and then pain shot up once more, only to be followed by a stream of memories.'Lord Nox. That's me, Nox Greenshade. I

    A few minutes later, Queenie was done packing. She came out of the room while Nox was still standing in the living room, acting like he was an amnesiac."Let's go, amnesiac." Queenie picked up her suitcase and left the house without looking at Nox. She muttered, "This is all your fault. My family wouldn't have thought I was a… Now, how should I explain myself?"Queenie sighed. She came to a white Mini parked outside the house and placed her suitcase in the trunk. "Get in," she said.Nox grunted and got into the car. It was pink inside and smelled nice.Queenie got in a moment later. "It's your lucky day. You're the first man to grace my car."Nox secretly chuckled, but he said nothing."We should get back to the city now." Queenie revved up the car and drove away. On the way back, she listened to the radio while Nox closed his eyes and ran his inner energy around his body to heal himself up.Queenie would sometimes steal a glance at Nox. He had a handsome face, twinkling eyes,

    When Nox saw the smoke and noticed the scent of something charred coming from the circuit board, he knew what was going on. Being the one and only Lord Nox, a broken-down car was nothing to him.He quickly went to the trunk and whipped out a wrench. Nox then quickly turned the screws on the engine, trying to open the lid.Queenie was still making a call when she saw Nox fiddling with her car. A momentary pause later, she trotted up to Nox. "What are you doing?" Queenie watched Nox in surprise as he took off the engine's lid.Nox said nothing. He was going unscrewing the screws and checking the circuit."Wait. Are you trying to repair my car?" Queenie asked curiously.Nox said nothing and kept going on with the repairs. About two minutes later, Nox finally connected the broken wire. "Done."Queenie was flabbergasted. She stared at Nox in disbelief. "You're done? That was fast. You sure that's right?"Nox grunted. Queenie had more questions, one of them being why an amnesiac knew

    "Even if you're the Nine-State Lord's woman, your treason is still punishable by death!" Voltaic glared at Aphrodite. If it weren't for the founder's order and her connection to Nox, Voltaic would've killed her.Aphrodite did not look happy either. Power meant everything. Voltaic was a powerful man, and he had nothing to worry about. Even during her family's zenith, she wouldn't dare cross him."Just go, Voltaic. I have my reasons. If you want to stay, then you and Mufasa get out of Celestial Domain and wait for me outside. When I get through this, the path of the ancient divine's coming after me. You can help me when that happens," said Nox.Voltaic gnashed his teeth but eventually decided to do as Nox told him to. "Fine, if you say so. But be careful. We don't get a Sovereign every day. Your life is not just yours. Faeast's people depend on you." He then hollered a Mufasa and left.Mufasa bowed to Kirin. "I shall take my leave now, sir." And he left with Voltaic. No one stopped t

    Kirin grabbed the ladies and regrouped with Nox. Not too long after that, Voltaic and Mufasa arrived. Voltaic wasn't in his best condition. Fending off the aftershock of that Saintly technique took too much of his life essence. Mufasa was in so deep a shock, his pupils dilated."I thought you'd leave Mystia's bastards to me, lad! But you took them all out!" Voltaic complained.Mufasa bristled. "Will you shut up? If he hadn't used that Saintly technique, I would've died!" Mystia's cultivators were handing his ass to him. He almost died.Nox said, "That wasn't me, but it doesn't matter now. The true test begins now. You can't do anything beyond this point. You can leave now," said Nox."What? But I haven't had fun!" Voltaic swung his swords. He was far from his limits. Since he was here, might as well see the empress. Better yet, he wanted to fight her."Leave. No one knows what's going to happen. Besides, the founder only told us to come. He didn't ask anyone else to. You can't han

    The power of a technique created by the sacrifice of a dozen Saints had terrifying strength. The rampaging sacred energy swept through Celestial Domain. Not even a single blade of grass could escape it. Nineve thought it felt like a whole warehouse of forbidden items were launched.Everything around them shook, and waves three hundred feet tall raged on the seas outside. The ships sent by the surrounding nations sank into the waters beneath. The waves swept White Tiger, and seawater filled up his mouth.Fortunately, Southern Sea's fleet came in time and fished him out of the waters. Fergus watched as shards of foreign nations' ships surfaced, and he was shocked. The distant waters were enveloped in storm clouds. "What happened here? Someone's testing a new weapon they developed?"That was Fergus' guess. He couldn't understand what was going on."That isn't a weapon! Someone's fighting in there! Cultivators!" White Tiger struggled to get up, foam circling his lips."Cultivators are

    With unyielding will, Nox marched toward the final bottleneck. At the same time, his aura became unstable, yet it started to rise. Once it reached a certain point, even Pinnacle Legend Realms could challenge Saints. His aura was far stronger than any Pinnacle Legend Realm. With his near-infinite energy, he shoved the Saintly techniques away.The Saintly techniques shattered, and a rampaging shockwave came crashing back to the Saints. They used their last resort and cast ancient spells, sacrificing themselves to conjure a gigantic wave of sacred energy.Like a falling star, the sacred energy suppressed Nox's aura, and it kept falling like a meteor. If Nox couldn't stop this, he would die. Kirin could smell the scent of death coming from Nox. His lord was in danger."No. I can't leave this to fate. I have sworn my loyalty to him, and I will not watch him die." Kirin would not leave this to chance, not even if their chances of winning were close to a hundred percent.Luck would eventu

    With most of the enemies gone, Nox just had to focus on the Saints. "Only you guys now. Come, fight me!" Nox controlled the spheres and fought the Saints alone.All the Saints infused their life essence into their power, and their auras rose. Everyone now at least doubled their strength. They pushed through the spheres and slammed Nox into the ground.Nox fell, failing to make any resistance. He crashed into the border of Celestial Domain, and the whole continent shook. The Saints worked together to push through the spheres and cast Saintly techniques.The techniques rose like blazing suns, and Kirin shook from the intensity of the energy within. "He's risking his life here. Even with Saintly techniques, it'll be hard to win this. He can't hold them off with just Pinnacle Legend Realm power." Kirin was grim. Even if Nox could withstand the combined attacks, he'd be badly injured.If he was hurt before he even met the final boss of the place, there was no chance to win this war."T

    The dragons' power was tied to Nox's. Since Nox wasn't a Saint, the dragons weren't Saints either. "Faux Saints and half-Saints are technically Saints too. They're trouble." Nox narrowed his eyes, and golden light shone in them."Eight Techniques, Blazing Inferno Eyes." Nox's eye power was activated, and he cast an illusion. The nearest Saints were caught by surprise, and they fell for the spell. They were put in a gigantic maze. Though the illusion was powerful, it had one fatal flaw. Though the victims were in the illusion, they could still sense the auras in the real world.Nox wasn't stupid. He tucked his aura away and quickly fell to the ground. The Emperors who were pinned by the dragons' pressure lunged at him. Controlled, they only fought with nothing but their instincts guiding them. They couldn't discern traps, but their instincts told them this was the perfect chance to strike."Good. I was waiting for this. Ultimate Moon Elephant Manual, go!" Nox slammed his hands again

    Kirin was speechless, and he ignored the question. Aphrodite explained, "He's saying that Lord Nox is holding back, and he might be underestimating the enemy."Nineve had no idea about spell levels or cultivation levels. Nox was powerful enough for her. "I know he can win. The… ancient cultivators or whatever. He's undefeatable. No one can take him down," said Nineve. She cheered on for Nox, shouting in the city's direction.Nox couldn't hear it, of course. There was a big distance between them, and the energy was rampaging. The city was no more. What was left in its place was a black cube. Nox had no idea what that thing was made of, but it was indestructible and could block out his divine sense."What is that thing? Is the empress in there? It's about 35 hundred cubic feet, so that's more than enough for her," Nox muttered.While he was distracted, the ancient cultivators attacked. They could combine their forces too. The spellcasters blasted Nox with their spells, while the mele
