He felt it the moment he stepped into the hall. The doors opened smoothly without a single sound. The servants greeted him warmly, bowing as they passed him by.
It felt so different from the last time he was here.
Because before, no one dared to even greet him. No one dared to even see him and acknowledge him. So what change happened in this Kingdom when he left?
It was weird. Something smelt too fishy.
But why?
Why did they recognize him as the Prince now? Why now, right before he was sentenced to death? Was it a form of last honor?
This change didn't only confuse Zaha. Tang, who walked beside him, realized it too. But different from the others, he increasingly felt annoyed by it.
He wondered why, grumbling in his head, thinking that this powerless Prince should not get the respect he got.
But then, they finally got
"I understand now," Zaha closed his eyes. It wasn't like he didn't anticipate anything like this happened.It seemed like even though everything had changed, from whatever happened in Ezra's loops or what he saw through his visions, something like this would still happen. The way his brother descended to his own destruction.Sorcery...In the course of his life, his vision had changed and changed, But the earliest dream he had was the most terrifying he ever saw. The Wolf King's rampage and his journey to destroy the world were one of them.But what vision did he actually see that led to that?His brother, slowly but surely, got his hands on Sorcery. He learned the forbidden art through envoys from the corrupted Central Continent.At the same time, there were also different groups following the arrival of the corrupt. They were refugees who had survived the f
The Lycans were getting ready to move out. It was a huge army that took up all the space in the castle courtyard. The Lycans had brought their own supplies with them.They looked like a giant mass of fur, teeth, and claws as they gathered around the courtyard. They would be marching soon enough.Liam was standing next to Harriet when she turned towards him and said, "We have confirmed that His Highness is alive. But he's unreachable right now. Even Heinrich Hyacinth's raven could not reach him.""I'm sure he's fine, though," Liam said. He hoped so.It looked like overcast, but there wasn't much wind at the moment. There were no clouds overhead, just a dark grey sky. Snow piled up on the ground from last night and the day before. And it was cold. Colder than usual for this time of year.The snow hadn't stopped falling since yesterday afternoon. It had been coming down nonstop ever
"Is it confirmed?" Ezekiel approached Ezra, walking in large steps toward her.Ezra turned to him, nodding in confirmation. In her wrist was Heinrich's raven, perching calmly, telling her his message in a low voice.[We are sure that he is still alive. But we also confirmed something else.]Ezekiel and Ezra heard Heinrich repeating the information he told Liam and Harriet. The army of approximately 500 wyverns and the ones leading them."For fuck's sake, she's alive..." Ezra cursed. But then she closed her own mouth with her hand after realizing that she had just uttered a bad word.Unconsciously, the woman touched her lower belly. Her face paled.Ezekiel nodded after he heard the entire message. "I'll go talk to father now and discuss our next move with the commanders of knight orders.""Are you alright?" he asked her.
It was a very chilly night. The moonlight shone through the windows of the Port City building and illuminated the dark alleys. The wind blew through the glass windows and made a tapping noise.From far away, people could see a long blonde-haired man standing alone on the beach, facing the east in silence.Liam sighed as he gazed at the sky above him and felt the cool breeze blowing on his skin. It was quiet and peaceful... but he could hear the sound of the incoming storm accompanying the sizzling of waves.He closed his eyes and took deep breaths of cold, fishy air, concentrating."Are you okay, Milord?" he heard Harriet's familiar voice. "You seem to be quite troubled tonight.""What are you doing here?" Liam smiled as he turned around to find her standing there with her usual smile. She was wearing her thick fur coat and had her hair tied up and covered with her hood.&
"We've received orders from the Capital."The pair looked at each other and immediately listened to the raven's message. It was Ezra's voice.[We have spread scouts and readied surveillance throughout the Eastern Coasts of the Continent. Padparadscha and Platinum had also prepared their army.][We are ordered to stand by and hold our grounds. We expect the fleet from the East Continent to accompany the wyvern army by dusk tomorrow. And we've agreed to defend the coastline for the first wave of attack.]"That's wise. At least we knew that Zaha is alright now, right?"After Liam asked that, a different voice came forward.[Yes, I'm sure he's alright. I can sense his subtle mana trace. But he's now confined within the King's palace. I think Yuha Serpentes is severely injured right now, and His Highness is treating him.] Heinrich's voice said.
The sound of battle horns rang out in the city. It echoed throughout the area and sent a shiver up every warrior's spine. Anyone could hear it even when they were hiding inside buildings.It was a signal that the enemy was near, even though it was not a signal for an attack. It was a call for a meeting with the commanders from both sides. Every soldier knew that it was one of the most important calls in war.Liam was ready in front of everyone. He only wore his long pants with his body decorated with a big Almandine necklace. He saw a small boat floating closer to the shore, and on the front was the face he recognized.It was Tang, the young general.His legs that were cut off were already being joined back by Zaha. Well, in this world, the only person who could do it that fast and perfectly was Zaha."It's been less than a month, but I see that you've come back," Liam said coldl
AWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!All the Lycan soldiers on the eastern coast were watching from a distance as they waited for their chance. But they could feel their hearts pounding as they watched the ships in the sea start to burn.The first one exploded and sank immediately. They knew it was their Alpha's doing. Liam was jumping up to the sky at the speed of sound, crashing down the first enemy ship like a bolt of thunder.Their leader, Liam Almandine, was burning their enemies alive on their own warships. But it would be necessary as the number of the enemy was very, very large.The Lycans were only 400 to 500 individuals, while the enemy was approximately 6000 strong men, accompanied by hundreds of <Aura Masters> captains.Liam landed on top of another ship and then jumped again. And again, and again. He jumped from one ship to the other, landing with a loud crash. As he landed on the
The war in the dark night was brutal. The Lycans were outnumbered. There were too many soldiers, and Almandine Army numbers were low, to begin with.But after Liam decapitated the enemy's commander, the war stopped.Floating in the ocean were dogs without their master. And the second son of Fulgens fell backward to his bottom, looking at the naked long blonde haired man standing beside his father's head on the floor.Yang Fulgens was stunned.So this was Liam Almandine, the previous giant white wolf in his human form. This man killed his father with just one strike of his fist.Yang Fulgens could barely breathe. He was terrified of this man who defeated his father with such ease.Monster.His brother was right. The man who had died in the explosion and was sacrificed by his own family was right. But nevertheless, Tang begged them before c
