The group rushed through the chaotic streets, desperately searching for a safe haven. However, it became clear that there were no longer any safe spots in Swallowston.

The monsters were closing in from all directions, their numbers overwhelming and seemingly endless. Ivy planned to lead the group out of Swallowston and into the outskirts of the city, but as they ran, they realized that monsters from outside the city were pouring in as well.

The city was filling up with monsters, and there was not a single safe place in sight.

"This way!" Eira shouted, pointing to an alternate route as they approached a roadblock of approaching monsters. She led the group in another direction the moment she spotted monsters up ahead.

Ivy was holding onto Nova, who was asleep. Gloria and Samantha held hands as they ran, while Nyssa stayed at the rear. However, there were too many monsters around them, and it was clear they would be engulfed soon.

"F*ck! F*ck! F*ck!" Eira cursed as they encountered

    Samantha and Gloria were exhausted by the time they reached the rooftop. They sat on the floor, trying to catch their breath. Eira and Nyssa, despite being on patrol and enduring fatigue for a whole week, sat down after making sure they were safe. Not long after, Ivy rushed back to their side, and Eira locked the rooftop door, letting out a relief."Look over there." Gloria pointed into the distance.Looking out from the rooftop, they saw that all of Swallowston had fallen. The whole city was overrun with monsters. At the sight of the monsters gathering at the base of the tower, the group felt a shiver down their spines and cold sweat on their forehead."We're completely surrounded. We’ll need a miracle to get out of here," Eira said, breathing heavily.Everyone remained silent, focused on regaining their strength. When they had calmed themselves, Ivy stood up and walked to the edge of the roof, gazing into the distance. "There's something off about these monsters. They’re specif

    The women took turns standing guard on the rooftop the entire night, waiting for someone to rescue them, but in their hearts, they knew the chances of that were next to impossible. Even if their message had gotten through, the people who heard it might choose to ignore them. Maybe the men they sent will not be capable of breaking through the army of monsters.They knew their lives had been forfeited at this point. ***The women continued to wait for the next two days. Having no food or water, they were so exhausted they barely had the strength to sit up straight. They had yet to receive any messages that brought them hope, and the monsters continued swarming around the base of the tower.Nova was crying incessantly from how hungry she was while Samantha's tears had dried up. She was out of ways to keep Nova safe.The fourth day arrived, and the sun was still nowhere to be seen. Ivy and her sisters were now weak and frail.Ivy struggled to stand up and walked to the rooftop's edg

    Ivy winced in pain but managed to evade a fatal strike.Countless more bird monsters descended from the sky, emitting piercing cries as they swooped down toward Samantha, Gloria, and Nova. Their claws radiated with a chilling murderous intent, sending fear through the women.Samantha trembled, clutching onto Nova tightly. She had given up. She knew resisting the monsters was futile.Time seemed to freeze. Ivy and her girls were pinned to the ground, trying to fend off the bird monsters. Samantha and Gloria had succumbed to fear, their minds blank as they waited for the end.Ivy and Eira's pained screams filled the entire rooftop. None of them wanted their lives to end like this, but there was nothing they could do. As a massive legion of bird monsters screeched and launched another attack, a beam of golden light suddenly shot toward the sky.The light condensed into a colossal golden sword in the sky, carrying with it a powerful force as it swept through the air, splitting the sky

    At these words, Ivy and the others cried from relief and joy.Adrian smiled at them. He then pinched Nova's cheek and asked, "How did you know it was me?""Papa!" Nova's little hand tugged at Adrian's ear.Adrian chuckled and fished out some milk powder and water from his backpack. Handing them to Samantha, he said, "Here. I'm sure Nova must be starving. "Samantha stared at the milk powder like it was a lifeline and quickly prepared some for her daughter. Meanwhile, Adrian went to Gloria and held her face as he smiled. "You've lost so much weight. You must've been through quite the ordeal." Gloria bit her lip, unsure of how to respond. She simply let his warmth wash over her as he hugged her. "Thank goodness you're here. I thought we were all going to die.”"Let’s not talk about that for now. I've brought food and water. Go ahead and have some."Adrian released Gloria and walked to Ivy. The bird monsters had torn her clothes to shreds, leaving her with visible wounds all over.

    "Where are the others?" Adrian asked."We're the only ones left. Everyone else disappeared," Ivy replied."Adrian… Mya, Ada, Jojo, Juno and Mother… They're all gone," Samantha added.Adrian nodded and said, "Don't worry. There’s a chance for them to return. What we need to focus on right now is resolving our current situation.” He then looked to Gloria, “By the way, Gracia's alive. She's currently in Drogoton with Remy.”"Really?!" Gloria's face lit up with joy."Yes, she was the one who contacted me and told me about your distress signal. It's thanks to her that I knew I needed to come here. I thought this place would be in better shape…" Adrian said with a hint of frustration.The women breathed a sigh of relief.Nyssa then curiously asked, "Are you all in November right now? What's happening to the world? Why did so many people suddenly disappear?"Adrian reached out and stroked Nyssa's long hair, saying, "We'll talk more along the way back. The world is currently in chaos,

    Nova's sudden change made Adrian realize that the world had undergone a transformative shift, and it went beyond what everyone had imagined. There might be many other changes, just like Nova's transformation.Everything they knew had changed after the world was reset. There were maybe some things that had evolved in ways that not even the Creator could control. For example, immortals were becoming more common.Adrian instructed, "Gracia, observe the infants and see if they go through any changes. I think what's happening to the world may be affecting human evolution."Gracia, though surprised by Adrian's request, recognized the validity of his concerns. As the world underwent changes, human genetics might have been influenced, leading to evolution heading in a different direction. "Understood. I'll contact you if I notice anything."After ending the communication, Adrian looked at Nova and thought of the changes that were in play, albeit unnoticed."What did you mean by that, Ad

    The reset was apocalyptic, but it also brought hope, and it was this hope that Adiran was speculating over.Gloria wondered, "Now that the world has been reset, do you think many immortals will emerge among us? Can we assume the reset cost him a tremendous amount of power, and in doing so, he unleashed a ton of aura essences into our world? Is it possible the excess aura essences can't be dispersed, and our bodies will continuously change upon absorbing them? Does this mean we'll eventually become like Nova?"Everything seemed to point toward there being aura essences left behind throughout the world after the Creator reset it.Adrian nodded. "You're right. I'm beginning to think the same as well. However, we shouldn't get too hopeful just yet. If the same thing happened during the last reset, he's probably going to try and collect the excess aura essences this time. After all, nobody wants to repeat the same mistake twice."The Creator was not human, so his thought process was ine

    Samantha, Gloria, Eira, and Nyssa got up and gathered around too. They saw the situation and knew it would not be easy for them to get out of the city. The number of monsters within Swallowston was endless, and even more were converging from outside the city. Swallowston had fallen, and there was no going back to the way things used to be."Adrian, have you noticed the monsters seem to have a leader? They’re following someone's orders," Ivy said."You're right, they are being controlled. They have a stone inside their heads, and it's the runes on the stones that control their movements. Their purpose is to kill all humans. More precisely, all living beings," Adrian answered.Samantha asked worriedly, "How are we supposed to get out of here? There are so many monsters around. It’s impossible to deal with them with just us." She did not wish to stay any longer. She was hell-bent on leaving Swallowston and finding a safe haven for Nova.Adrian did not respond immediately. Instead, h

    Adrian was blatantly threatening her. It was clear he would subject her to torment and death if she didn’t agree to his terms. How could such a person be described as reasonable?Renee gritted her teeth, wishing she could punch Adrian and show him her strength.Adrian simply looked at her calmly. “There’s no need to resent me. I’m actually quite agreeable. When things can be resolved, I try to resolve them. As for you, rest assured. During your month of servitude, I won’t make you serve in vain. You’re the princess of Ciawales, correct? It just so happens I have some free time. Let’s head there together.“Also, tell me about the customs and cultures of this world. I’ve been in secluded training for many years and have forgotten much about the outside world,” he lied.Renee was taken aback. Adrian didn’t look much older than her, so how could he be some kind of reclusive expert? His words only left her more puzzled.“How am I supposed to introduce it? Are you not from this world?”

    Was Adrian looking for praise? Renee couldn’t help but feel a bit exasperated. She wasn’t sure what Adrian was trying to convey. All his words seemed to point to one thing—that he was her savior, and now she owed him her obedience.To Renee, this was a difficult pill to swallow. After all, she was a princess, and Adrian’s implication was that she should lower herself to him. But under the current circumstances, she had no choice but to bow her head.Though she felt deeply unwilling, Renee could only grit her teeth and respond calmly, “Yes, you saved me. I’m deeply grateful. I promise to repay your kindness when I get the chance.” She locked eyes with Adrian, waiting for his reaction. If Adrian wasn’t satisfied, she truly didn’t know what to do. The valuable items she possessed were limited, consisting mostly of a few life-saving treasures. Beyond that, there wasn’t much on her that was of worth.Adrian, however, narrowed his eyes and said sharply, “Just a few words of thanks? Do y

    "Spare me! Otherwise, Divine Reaper won’t let you go!" the leader shouted, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Adrian.The man looked terrifying, exuding a powerful aura. He was using a secret technique, hoping to escape. But with a casual wave of his hand, Adrian created a barrier that blocked the man’s path.Renee, watching from below, was stunned. Divine Reaper… They were the most feared assassin organization in the Spirit Domain, known for their stealthy and deadly methods that instilled fear in everyone.There was a saying across the Spirit Domain: if Divine Reaper marked someone for death, nine out of ten targets would die. If someone survived, it was because they were of an extraordinary and untouchable status. Clearly, her status as the princess of Ciawales wasn’t extraordinary enough to make her exempt from such threats.Adrian smiled and said, “Nice name, but you’ve offended the wrong person. You deserve to die.” He swung his Soul Devouring Sword.A wave of power surged forth, a

    "I can't believe it! Is this guy really that terrifying? Can we truly not defeat him?" the leader muttered. He gripped a curved blade, which now glowed with a blood-red light.The others around him also had cold glints in their eyes. They were not about to admit defeat easily. Although Adrian was powerful, they weren’t willing to give up without a fight. Adrian had only been killing intermediary Nascents. He hadn’t even touched the advanced ones yet. Most importantly, their leader was at the peak of the Nascent Stage, making him an incredibly strong and fearsome opponent. This alone was enough to show that their leader had the strength to go toe-to-toe with Adrian. They were confident that Adrian couldn’t defeat their boss, especially with them assisting.Boom, boom, boom!A terrifying shockwave tore through the heavens, leaving the surroundings trembling violently. Adrian’s gaze was sharp, filled with an intense killing intent.“Die!” he shouted.Bam!The leader was struck har

    Moreover, the strength Adrian displayed was so overwhelming that it left everyone in disbelief. After all, in the Spirit Realm, the physical body of any immortal was supposed to be relatively fragile, and having a powerful physical body was impossible.The group couldn't quite accept the fact that Adrian was out of their league. Yet, no matter how they tried to make sense of it, it seemed like nothing could change the reality of the situation. One of the black-clad men sneered. "Perhaps this kid's physical strength is enhanced by some kind of secret treasure. Once we kill him and take the treasure, we’ll boost our own power." His words were intended to rally the group as if trying to inspire them to believe they were on the verge of victory. Adrian merely smiled coldly upon hearing this. With a murderous gleam in his eyes, his voice turned cold as he said, "Since you're all so determined to meet your end, don't blame me."Adrian threw another punch, and this time, it was a force

    The group's formation suddenly began to shatter. The white light radiated by the formation continued to whip up the surrounding yellow sand."How is this possible?" one of the men gasped in disbelief. This was a powerful barrier set up by several experts in the late Divine Stage, yet it had been destroyed so easily.The leader of the black-clad men sneered. "Hmph! It's just the formation being broken. Most likely it was pure luck for this guy. Don’t be afraid of him."His words caused the others to pause. While his words were meant to reassure them, the reality of the situation was far from simple. It was impossible for them to defeat Adrian, who was proving to be much stronger than anticipated? After all, Adrian’s strength had clearly surpassed that of a typical Divine immortal. Even if he were in the Divine Stage, he had undoubtedly reached the peak. Breaking the formation with ease was impossible unless one was at that level."It's just a bluff," the leader of the black-clad m

    Renee felt a sense of helplessness within. As a princess of Ciawales, she was now left pondering a difficult question.Adrian was unaware of Renee’s thoughts. If he had known that Renee was considering fleeing while he was risking his life, he would not have helped her.As the onslaught of attacks descended upon him, Adrian leaped swiftly into the air. The attacks from the black-clad men crashed into him, but Adrian remained unscathed. This caused the group of attackers to freeze in disbelief."What’s going on?" they muttered in shock as they stared at Adrian, who appeared as agile as a panther.At the moment when Adrian leaped into the air, it seemed as though nothing could stop him. His expression remained calm and nonchalant in the face of their attacks."Is this all you’ve got? You’re really that weak. Feel free to unleash everything you’ve got. Don’t hold back," Adrian said, his tone laced with disdain.The black-clad group was stunned by Adrian’s arrogance. Even Renee stood

    Adrian smiled as he replied, "Is that so? Well, it seems you're just unlucky. The moment you encountered me, your fate was already sealed."His simple words were filled with provocation, meant to make the group before him admit their defeat. If they didn't, Adrian was determined to make them regret it.The leader of the black-clad men sneered and stepped forward. "How laughable. This is the first time I’ve encountered such an arrogant brat. Do you really think you're some kind of unparalleled genius? I see your strength is only at the Divine Stage. While I can’t quite tell your true level, you shouldn’t be so cocky. Even with your strength, we can overwhelm you with numbers and wear you down. You really don't know when to quit. Now, I’ve changed my mind. Kneel before us, and we’ll spare you."As the leader was talking, his curved blade gleamed with a faint light. The light from the blade seemed to radiate with a dangerous brilliance, causing Adrian’s expression to momentarily shift

    "No matter who he is, he's no match for us. I advise you to surrender quietly, Renee," one of the black-clad men said.Clinging to the last flicker of hope, Renee was not willing to give up. She charged toward the barrier, unleashing an attack as she did. The strike hit the barrier, and it trembled violently.At that moment, Adrian’s eyes snapped open. Seeing the situation before him, his expression grew cold.Renee continued her wild assault. As her eyes met Adrian’s, an unexpected surge of panic overtook her.The black-clad pursuers were furious. “Hey, kid up ahead! I suggest you mind your own business. This woman belongs to us. If you want to stay alive, leave now."The voice of the black-clad man was booming, and the sound of it echoed through the desert, proving that these pursuers were no ordinary threat.Adrian’s expression turned even colder. He had no intention of getting involved, but when the others spoke so recklessly, he couldn’t just ignore it. As he slowly rose to
