Thalia heard everything, and she was about to blow up. Jebediah clenched his fists tightly. If Nox weren't here, they would've turned George into mincemeat.

"Who dares insult my lord?" A roar rumbled the house, and a burly silhouette appeared seemingly out of thin air.

"You again?" The sight of Keith sent George reeling. He scrambled backward, fearing Keith would kill him again.

"Those who insult the lord shall die, especially useless pieces of shit like you!" Keith shouted, "Shadow Division!"

The Shadow Division members unsheathed their blades. "Your orders, commander?"

Keith pointed at George. "Take this piece of worthless trash out of my sight and cut off his head!"

"Yes, commander!" The Shadow Division members were about to attack George, and he was petrified.

"W-What do you want? You can't kill me! I'll call the cops!" George screeched as he kept retreating.

"The cops? Best joke I've ever heard!" Keith ordered, "Get your ass here right now, William! You and your politician

    "What's happening here? Why're they bowing to him?" George was flabbergasted. This was his worst nightmare.Alexander finally could speak his mind. "Sanders, the lord has forgiven your insults time and again, but you spat in his hand. If he hadn't taken a liking to your daughter, I wouldn't even give a moment of my time to you!""Mr. Weeks!" George couldn't believe what he was hearing."It's all thanks to the lord your family still lives. You're nothing without him," said Alexander. "And he bailed you out of the Joshtons' revenge. You ignored that and insulted him incessantly. That's unforgivable."Every word pierced George's soul, and he slumped. 'What is going on? The richest man in Riverton just called Nox his lord. And Nox helped us? He bailed us out of that crisis?'William chimed in, "My sentiments exactly. You're an embarrassment to this city. Insulting a hero of the city? Unthinkable. It's an honor having him with us."George was quaking in fear. As if Alexander wasn't en

    Again, Nox said, "I'll spare you only for Queenie's sake. You should feel lucky you have such a good and kind daughter. But remember, you'll run out of luck one day, and when that day comes, I will kill you.""T-Thank you." George groveled, professing his gratitude to Nox for sparing him."And you can't tell anyone about this, not even Queenie. It's going to ruin our relationship. Fail, and you die," Nox warned.Shivering, George promised, "I swear my mouth's zipped. No one will hear a word, not even Queenie.""Good. Now piss off."George couldn't remember how he got down the mountain due to the shock. Half his body was numb from fear. He was even slurring. The day had been a nightmare for him. All this time, he had nothing but disdain for Nox.All of a sudden, he found out that Alexander, the governor, the leaders, and even the commander, bowed to Nox. George wondered, 'Who is that man? I thought he lost his memories.' George shuddered at this thought.…The sun had set. Queen

    "Dad, what happened? Who did this to you?" Queenie had a lot of complaints about her father, but she was still worried about him.George grabbed Queenie's arm. "Queenie, I'm sorry. I'm sorry." He broke into sobs again.'Huh? Did he just say sorry? Why? Oh no, Dad's gone mental!' Queenie couldn't believe her father would apologize."Dad, say something. What happened? Who did this to you?" Queenie quickly asked.George wasn't about to tell her. He was too terrified to. If he said a word about the encounter, Nox would kill him. "No more questions, Queenie. I'm fine. Just cleared my mind and realized I've been mistaken all along. From now on, you can date whoever you want. I won't butt in! Your relationship is yours."George started crying again. Yvette and Queenie found it confusing. After all, they didn't think that George, who was usually demanding at home, would change so drastically. The fact that he promised Queenie she could date anyone gave her the clue she needed.She wasn't

    "Why did he change so much? It's barely been a day. And he's letting me see Nox? No way can that be Dad."Yvette was still looking at her husband. "Beats me."Suddenly, Queenie smiled. "It doesn't matter. This works for me."Yvette sighed. She had a lot on her mind, but she said nothing.…Ever since the ordeal at Dragoncourt, George had become a different person. He used to lord everyone around the house and did nothing but eat and read. Now, he was soft-spoken and even took up chores around the house.Yvette thought her husband's days were numbered. He was obviously going mad. After a few days, the terror finally got the best of her.Queenie had just started exercising when Yvette pulled her aside. "I think your dad's cursed, Queenie. He's doing the dishes. He's never done that before!"Queenie was dressed in a pink sport attire that accentuated the curves. She looked into the kitchen and saw her dad doing the dishes. "I think it's a good thing, Mom." She smiled."It's a cur

    A beautiful silhouette leaped onto Nox. "Nono!" Queenie had been waiting for a while. She was still in her sports attire, and her hair was tied into a ponytail, looking energetic.Nox smiled. "Why did you ask me to come, Queenie?"Queenie grabbed Nox's arm and said mysteriously, "Something major just happened, Nono.""Sounds serious," Nox said."Yeah, it's my dad. He's not himself anymore," Queenie replied."Is that so?""Yes. A few days ago, he came back all bruised. His face was swollen like a balloon. It was from that day he started acting like a different person. He mellowed out and even took up chores around the house."Queenie added, "But more importantly, he said that he will stay out of my relationships. He even let me date you!"Queenie blabbed everything to Nox, but he wasn't surprised. It would be weirder if George remained the same snob he was after that harrowing event. "Sounds like a good thing if you ask me," Nox said."Wait. You're being too calm about this. Do

    "Not much. Just telling your father to stay safe. Wasn't I, Mr. Sanders?" Nox gave George a look."Yes, of course. Nox is right," George answered quickly."What did you just call Nono?" Queenie's eyes went wide with confusion.Yvette, too, wondered why George called Nox by his first name. He never used to do that. Why was he so courteous today?"His name. Why?" George couldn't call Nox 'milord,' so he went with his first name."Something's wrong. You used to talk down to him. Have you really come around?" Queenie was buzzing with excitement."Tosh. I've never talked down to the l—I mean Nox. I told you. It's all a big misunderstanding, and I'm sorry for my ignorance. I swear you can date him now, Queenie. Don't worry." George sounded genuine. He would get on his knees and beg if needed.Queenie couldn't be more elated. She asked Nox over to see if George had really changed, and he had. "Did you hear that? Dad said we can date!" A happy Queenie clasped Nox's hand.Nox was smilin

    'I have to change the topic,' Nox thought.Hence, he said, "Just don't mind it. We have a great thing going on here, silly.""Did you just call me silly? You lost your memories. You don't even remember who you are." Queenie put her hands on her hips and puckered her lips.Nox laughed. "Fine, fine. I'm the silly guy. Happy?""That's more like it." Queenie held Nox's arm again. "If Dad has our back, I bet we'll be so happy together."Nox gently held Queenie's hand. "Of course we will."Queenie chuckled and rested her head on Nox's chest. "I want to bring you to the hospital in a few days, Nox.""What? Why?" Nox was curious."You lost your memories, remember?" Queenie replied.'I didn't lose my memories.' In the end, Nox didn't say that out loud.Queenie thought Nox was anxious about his condition. She quickly comforted, "I swear I'll stay with you even if you can't get your memories back. We'll get through this together until death do us part."Nox felt warm inside, and he loo

    George came back a moment later with his prized alcohol. Seeing this, Queenie's eyes went wide with surprise. "Dad, that's the best booze you have.""Obviously. I'm drinking with Nox, you see." George poured a cup of wine each for Nox and himself. His hands were shaking, but he raised a toast. "To you."Nox picked up his cup. "Bottoms up."They finished their first cup, and the second followed quickly. Soon enough, the wine was finished. George took a couple more bottles from his collection.He treasured these dearly. They would fetch a handsome price if sold, but now he was sharing it with Nox without batting an eye.George was a decent drinker, but Nox was a much better drinker than he thought. Moments later, George was drunk, and he started apologizing again.The old man eventually started bawling like a baby. Queenie stepped in. "Dad, why are you crying? You're drunk.""No, I am not! And I have a lot of things to tell you! Queenie, I'm sorry. I failed you as a father. Please

    "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

    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?
