"Just you wait, Queenie. And you too, you bastard. You'll rue the day you crossed me."

A moment later, the motorcade came to a stop before the Sanders Residence. Out came a swarm of bodyguards in black. Then Silas, Hogs, and Jezebiah came out. Finally, Raymond made his appearance.

Hogs led the way into the residence. "Follow me, Silas. Queenie and her cur of a lover is right inside."

Silas tossed his cigar away, his eyes twinkling venomously, and he strode into the residence.

Queenie, Nox, and Queenie's parents were in the lobby. Then, a wave of black came in. Queenie's parents shot up from their seats, staring at the Joshton bodyguards in shock.

Queenie was watching as well, and she blanched. Nox, however, didn't even spare them a moment of his time. He was quietly finishing his cup of quality tea.

A shout echoed in the air. "Get out here right now, Queenie!"

Hogs, Jezebiah, and Silas came in. George quickly approached his brother.

"What's wrong, Hogs?"

A sneer curled Hogs' li

    Total, utter panic had settled in Queenie's heart. She saw no way out. This was just an act, to begin with, but she never thought Hogs and Jezebiah would search for Alexander's family tree right away and throw money at their connections to find out if Alexander had a godson.The secret could no longer be contained, and Queenie had no idea what to do.The silence was making George nervous, and he was almost going to pounce. "Tell me the truth, girl! Who is that man?!""If she won't tell you, I will. I've spent a ton of money to get this intel. Unfortunately, Alexander has no godson. He has a daughter, however. Only daughter. And Centersea is one of Empire Corp's business partners. Ask Silas if you don't believe me." Hogs sneered.Yvette and George were petrified, and then Yvette's legs buckled. She plopped to the ground like jelly. George was shivering in rage, his eyes crimson. "He's not Alexander's godson? You and the bastard tricked us? We're your family!"Queenie was tearing up

    "That you'll never be pushed around. That you'll never be used as a chip to bargain. Put your trust in me, and I'll make you the happiest woman in the world. Forever."Queenie was stunned. She thought, 'He just feels so cool all of a sudden. His eyes are shining, and even his face is gleaming. Everything about him just screams, "I'm the king."' Queenie had never had anyone give her that kind of promise before."One last time, Queenie. Do you believe me? Will you take my hand?" Nox asked huskily, and he extended his hand.Queenie stared at his hand, her mind blank. Not a single man had ever given her that kind of promise before. None of them would ever do this for her. She wondered, 'But he's just an amnesiac. He has no idea who he even is. Who is he, really? Is he a good guy or a bad guy?'So many questions, yet so few answers. Still, when she stared into Nox's eyes, she felt secure. Safe. And she was starting to waver.Driven by her impulse and desire to escape her family's oppre

    The bodyguards swung their weapons. A scared Queenie covered her face, but Nox did not even move. A sneer escaped his lips, and he brought his foot down to the ground with a slam.The bluestone tiles were crushed into smithereens.An invisible shockwave undulated across the battlefield, and groans of pain tore through the air as the bodyguards were sent flying. They fell with a sickening thud, none able to get back up.Hogs was in disbelief. 'Is he even human?' he wondered.Even Silas did not look as confident as he was before.Nox stood regally. "Anyone still want some?"Silas came up. "Remember me, punk?"Nox glanced at Silas."You slept with my woman, and now you're taking her away? Do you think I'm that much of a pushover? I'm telling you, you're not leaving this place alive!"He roared, "Raymond!"With a thud, a burly Raymond came forth. He smelled like sickly, metallic blood, and he had the eyes of a leopard, glaring at Nox darkly."My family has kept you for three year

    Raymond's other arm was broken as well. Everything happened in a flash. In mere moments, the once infamous murderer of the northern Tri-State area had his arms broken.Silas felt fear filling him up, and the Sanderses were stunned.Nox continued, "You want my arms and legs? Very well. I broke your arms, so I guess I'm going for your legs next." And he darted ahead, quick as a phantom. No one saw what he did, but they heard something getting crushed. Twice.A silhouette was sent flying like a cannonball, and it fell before Silas. The man was none other than Raymond, though his limbs were all broken. He was howling and screaming in agony.Just like that, the murderer fell, plunged into pain and agony. He was once the best enforcer of Silas' father, but now he was a cripple.Silas did not expect Raymond to be defeated so easily, and he took an involuntary step back.Nox looked at Silas. "Your turn." He slowly approached Silas.Fear was squeezing Silas' soul. "W-What do you want? I'

    Queenie fled her house, lied to her parents, watched as someone beat her father up, and now she was cutting ties with them. Never in her life had Queenie thought about committing any of those crimes, but here she was. She did everything in the span of a single morning.Even when she was leaving the residence, her mind was blank, and she was shivering. Nox kept quiet all the way, though he was giving her concerned looks. He knew it was hard for someone to take in all of this at the same time.The journey back to Pearl Residence was a silent one. When they came in, all the pressure and tension finally broke Queenie. Everything went black, and she fell.Quickly, Nox held her up. He checked on her and heaved a long sigh of relief. "Just knocked out from all the pressure, that's all."He took her to the bed and injected his inner energy into Queenie, and then he sat with her quietly, guarding her.Queenie's cheeks gained a shade of red, tear tracks still lingering on her face. She look

    She started roaring at Nox, "I'm done for! I'm finished! I told you to leave, but you wouldn't! We got exposed, and now my folks disowned me! What should I do now?" She got sad again and cried.Quickly, Nox said, "If they're kicking you out, then I'm taking you in!""What are you talking about? What can you even give me? You lost your memories. My God, what was I doing? I can't believe I left my home and I held your hand in front of everyone!"Nox watched her cry for a while. "Don't tell me you're regretting this. It's not too late to back out."Queenie grabbed a pillow and smacked it on him. "Regret? What are you saying, Nox? You took me away, and now you're dumping me?"Nox was speechless. 'I am not dumping you,' he thought."Listen up, you amnesiac. I'm going to stay with you from now on, and there's nothing you can do about it! I don't care that you've lost your memories. I have nothing! My folks disowned me!"And once more, she got heartbroken.Nox grinned. 'Oh, so she did

    Nox smiled dryly. In his mind, he said, 'What on earth is she thinking? I'm not going to force myself on her. I'm Lord Nox.'But Queenie wouldn't know that. With her hands still on her hips, she said, "And no matter in or out of the house, I call the shots. Don't try to bully or yell at me. And I can't cook, clean, or do the laundry. That's the servant's job, so don't try to make me do any chores."She continued, "And the most important thing is, if we do go further in this relationship, you can't see any other girl or cheat on me. I lost everything because of you, understand?"That reminded her of what happened earlier, and Queenie cried.Nox was close to bursting into laughter just seeing her cry, but he nodded. "Of course. Anything you say.""Really?" Nox's quick answer stopped Queenie's crying."Of course," said Nox lovingly."That's more like it. At least I didn't come with you for nothing." Queenie wiped the tears off her cheeks, but her eyes were still puffy from crying t

    Twenty minutes later, Queenie came out of the bathroom. She changed into a tracksuit, and her hair was tied in a ponytail. Gorgeous as ever. "I bet you're hungry, Nox. Let's go on a food hunt."Nox was hungry, so he nodded. They got into a taxi, and Queenie took Nox on a hunt for good food. They came to a restaurant called Bluewhale. It was one of its kind in Riverton and was only open for members. Most people could never get the chance to dine here.Queenie got themselves an expensive parlor and ordered all her favorite foods. In her words, food could cure any bad mood, so she wanted to have a feast.The feast was served a moment later, and Queenie dug in. The meal went on for an hour, and Queenie rubbed her belly in contentment. "A full belly. Did you have your fill, Nono?""Yeah," Nox said."Let's go home.""Sure.""Waiter, give us the bill."A waitress came with a bill. "Hi, your total comes up to 1200 dollars."Queenie wasn't fazed by the total. She took out a gold card a

    Douglas worked through the night for the negotiation."One, you must apologize for your invasion of Faeast. Two, you will return all stolen relics to us and pay for damages. Three, you will open trade with Faeast, and it must be complete and total. Those are our demands. We promise not to interfere with your nation's administration. Once the aid is administered, our fleet and army will retreat from Brundela."And one more thing. Faeast recognizes you as Brundela's new ruler." That was interesting. It also meant that Faeast could rescind that recognition at any time. Elizabeth had no choice. Without Faeast, Brundela would be gone. In the end, the nations arrived at an agreement.At midnight, they called a press conference. Faeast helped Eropa settle a war and avert a world disaster. That news took the world by storm. The Eastern dragon was rising, and none could stop it. It wouldn't take long for Faeast to return to the top.Brundela's case was over. After they gave enough aid, Ferg

    "They call you Great Generals?" the Ice Temple Lord laughed. "If I do want to betray him, how do you hope to stop me? You three had to take me on together, and it only ended in a draw. Now that I'm an Emperor and White Tiger is in a slumber, I can destroy you in a moment!"The Ice Temple Lord looked at Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise with disdain. Vermilion Bird's eyes were wide. She didn't care. She would fight the Temple Lord to the bitter end if she must.Black Tortoise was the calmer one, and he pulled Vermilion Bird back. "Calm down. Even if he wants to betray the lord, he at least would want to see the lord's body before he tries anything."Even a woman like Aphrodite lost this fight. He wouldn't dare try anything stupid."The Ice Temple Lord was still smug about being an Emperor, and now his celebration was cut short. Betraying Nox required a lot of courage. Nox's power terrified him. Even if he couldn't win the fight, Nox could at least come back safely.Besides, he only

    The formation Nox created with the Sovereign Seal was on the brink of destruction. Once the formation was gone, the Sovereigns and the spirits would return to dust. In this final moment, Brundela's Faeastian called their friends and family in their homeland and projected the modern-day Faeast onto the gigantic screen in the plaza.The spirits cried when they saw how developed their nation had become. The Sovereigns and the rulers were meticulous people. They used to rule over a unified nation, so they knew how hard it was to create a dynasty. Every dynasty would have its peak and nadir.Every time a dynasty was on a decline, Faeast would be in danger. They didn't talk about the truth behind that video, of course. They admired the beautiful land of Faeast as they waited for their final moment to arrive."The hardest and darkest moment is behind us, sirs. Faeast has me now. You may rest in peace. I will not let you down. I will destroy the canker that infects Faeast and give it the pe

    "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

    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

    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

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.
