Sage chuckled. She said regretfully, "Strider and I were planning on inviting you to our wedding, but it looks like you won’t be able to make it."

"What?!" Adrian looked puzzled.

Nova became extremely excited. "The two of you are getting married?! That's great! I'm definitely going to be there!"

Sage laughed. "Strider and I have been through so much together. Plus, I'm almost forty now, so I don't want to wait anymore. Strider's physique is different from mine, so I'd like to settle down while I'm still relatively young."

"Have your parents agreed to this?" Adrian asked.

When Sage nodded, Adrian said, "This is wonderful. It feels like it was just yesterday I saw you at the selection, Sage. Who would've ever thought you and Strider would end up together? Well then, I may not be able to attend your wedding, but as your senior, I should still say a thing or two as a blessing.

"Strider, Sage is a wonderful girl, and I'm sure you two will be happy together."

    "He's busy reorganizing Wyvern Peak and assisting Crystal in managing Navia. He's pretty occupied currently. I've only been able to meet him once last month. Remy, Sylvia, Zack, and Polaris have been promoted and have been assigned their own teams.”"What about Jerome's girlfriend?" Adrian asked. There had been a girl who was waiting for Jerome when the latter became the new legate of Wyvern Peak.Sage responded, "The two of them have reunited and she moved into Wyvern Peak. They're planning to get married too, but they haven't been able to fix a date due to how busy Jerome is.""What about Remy's younger siblings?" Adrian further inquired."They’re all doing well, nothing to worry about.""That's a relief. I'm going to need all of you to guide Nova while I'm gone. Make sure to never forget your roots for as long as you live. You need to work together to protect our world, understand?" "Yes, sir."Adrian turned to Nova. “Each one of these people has their strengths, so I want

    Adrian left One Jewel Road, driving to an unknown destination. He needed to see one more person before meeting up with Rozi. ***The next day, the War Legate Shrine in Vanglesville was bustling as usual. Adrian was standing outside the shrine's newly rejuvenated creek, quietly observing the town."What's the rush, Sean? Wait for me!" a voice called out.Sean, heading toward the shrine, slowed down. After Marissa caught up to him, the couple walked side by side. Just then, Marissa spotted a familiar figure and said, "Adrian!""Huh?" Sean looked puzzled.Marissa quickly let go of Sean and ran toward Adrian. She asked, "What brings you here?" Adrian turned around to see Marissa approaching and Sean following behind her, eyeing Adrian curiously."Long time no see, Sean. How have you been?""You know who I am? Have we met before?" Sean was puzzled, unable to recall if he had met Adrian.Adrian nodded. "I found your body by the creek eighteen years ago. There's something I've b

    Marissa replied, "Rozi's a good person who helped us a great deal. Now that she's rapidly growing old and on the verge of death, it's only right that I do what I can to help her. So, what do we do?" "The three of us will enter that portal. With your current powers, you're more than capable of the trip, and I could use an assistant. Go make whatever arrangements you have to. If you're willing to leave with me, come see me at Vanglesville's train station tomorrow morning and we’ll leave for Shangspar."Marissa glanced at Sean, then nodded firmly. “I'll be there.”Adrian smiled and patted Sean on the shoulder. "Don't worry. I promise I'll bring her home safe and sound."Although Sean was reluctant to see Marissa leave, he chose not to speak his mind.Adrian then left for the train station. He planned to stay there overnight and depart with Marissa the next morning.At that moment, Adrian could no longer sense Rozi's presence. She was not supposed to exist in this day and age. She h

    Adrian looked downward and spotted a slightly protruding rock that bore a cave entrance. It led into the meteorite and was their destination. “Rozi must be in the cave,” Adrian said as he pointed at the entrance.Marissa headed toward the cave, but in her haste, took a little tumble. Adrian managed to catch her and threw her straight into the cave."Ow…" Marissa groaned. She looked up at Marissa with some confusion. “What are you doing here?”“We’ve come to help, Rozi." Marissa embraced Rozi, who now had a head full of white hair. "We won’t let you be taken away from us."“We?” Rozi then spotted Adrian walking in and beamed. “You've aged too,” she remarked.Adrian strode forward and enveloped the two women in a bear hug. “Growing old is only a part of life. After all, we can't stay young forever. Don't worry, I'm sure we'll succeed."“You'll come with me?"Rozi could not believe her ears. Nobody should even want to look at her in her current state. Adrian smiled tenderly and

    Thud!Marissa hit her forehead. A large bump welled up as she shivered in pain. After taking a few steps back, she looked up to examine what she had bumped into.Alas, the wall was still there."I can't get through!" she cried out in despair. Adrian's voice then came from the other side. "Close your eyes and clear your mind when you walk forward.”Marissa was still a little skeptical, but Rozi and Adrian had already passed through. She had to quickly follow after them. With no choice but to trust Adrian, she tried again, hoping he was not trying to trick her.Thud! Marissa hit the wall again, and another bump formed on her forehead. She grew annoyed. She had concentrated on passing through the wall with all her might."It's still not working!" she said.Adrian and Rozi, engulfed in darkness, paused upon hearing Marissa's cries. Marissa felt utterly helpless, wondering why she was not being allowed to pass through."I've got to get through!"Marissa tried again and bumped i

    The man’s face turned pale. He looked at his ruined sword and felt humiliated. Upon gathering his wits, he stomped and said, "You'll pay for this!"With that solemn vow, he got onto his horse and rode away.Marissa was quite worried. That man would surely be back for revenge. She lamented over how they had made an enemy moments after entering the new world. "We should run,” she said."There’s nowhere for us to run to though,” Adrian answered. They knew nothing about Debonaire and knew they were doomed if they fell into someone's trap. Rozi agreed with Adrian, knowing that it did not matter where they were as long as he was by their side."I'm hungry. I’d love for something to eat,” Rozi said. Marissa, her senses heightened thanks to her powers, said, "There's a small town up ahead, and something there smells really good.” She was hungry too but had not dared to voice this.Adrian pondered silently. He realized they had a serious problem. They had no idea what sort of cur

    The fat owner trembled with fear, involuntarily looking at his greasy hands and grateful he had not touched Marissa.With a pained expression, he stammered, “I-I'm sorry! P-Please don’t hit me! Order whatever you like, it's on the house. Can we then call it even and forget any of this ever happened?" Marissa looked at Adrian. He had always been reluctant to take advantage of others. Yet, the citizens of Debonaire seemed to only respond to fear. They rather cowered against the strong rather than conduct a fair exchange.“Should we take him up on his offer, Adrian?”Penniless and hungry, Adrian saw no other way. They needed strength to fight back if the guy from before returned for revenge, so Adrian decided they needed to eat before dealing with their other problems.“Let's go inside.”“I'll have a roasted pork knuckle." Rozi placed her order the moment she sat down. “A pound of brisket would be nice too." The owner nodded. "Right away, ma’am. Is there anything else?" “Bring

    A huge plate of dragon’s heart was served next, but Marissa thought it tasted foul and lost interest in it after a bite. Instead, she set her sights on a plate of roasted chicken that had just arrived at the table. "This is delicious!" She pulled off a drumstick and handed it to Adrian. "This one's for you. You're the strongest, so you need to recover your strength."Adrian graciously accepted her offer.Rozi tucked into the dragon’s heart so much that she unknowingly finished the entire plate. As she licked her fingers, she asked, "Do you have any more? That portion was too small."The owner shuddered in fear. He had laced the food with a heavy dose of drugs. After the trio was incapacitated, he would capture them and hand them over to the Ivory Clouds."We’re out of that!" he impatiently replied.The owner sat behind the counter and carefully observed Adrian. He could tell that Adrian was the strongest among the trio and that his problems would be resolved once Adrian was out c

    The Daemon Emperor was startled."What is happening? This power..."Formless energy was surging forward, pressuring his nerves and senses.Below, Andy and the others trembled uncontrollably."Who is it?" Finnian stared into the crimson mist.Even Andy was horrified, his gaze locked on the unfolding scene in disbelief, and asked, "What is this? What exactly is happening?" At this moment, Adrian abruptly opened his eyes.Apparently, the Daemon Emperor had once conspired with Adrian's subordinates to ambush him.However, Adrian had managed to annihilate the traitors and sealed this Daemon Emperor. Now, fate had brought them together again."If I killed you once, I can kill you again." Adrian stood tall, his white robes fluttering in the air.The Daemon Emperor was stunned into silence."This is impossible! You're not that mortal boy!""Is that so? In this life, your end has come, and so has the era of the daemons." Adrian's voice was calm yet resolute. He stretched out his han

    Adrian's face hardened at the words. He despised threats above all else. While he understood what the mysterious entity desired, he couldn't yet fully comprehend its implications or find a way to counter it. His only choice was to focus on growing stronger.Within the hot spring, waves of raw, terrifying power surged and crashed violently against Adrian's body.The force, though beneficial, was brutal and overwhelming. Adrian's body struggled to endure, cracking as though it were disintegrating."Arghhh!"A heart-wrenching scream echoed as Adrian's flesh was torn apart and his aura gradually dimmed."Ahhh!"His agonized cries echoed once more. He could no longer withstand the pain.In the distance, a towering figure appeared and sneered. "What's this? Can't take it anymore? Pathetic. Humans are truly the epitome of stupidity."Suddenly, Adrian erupted with an explosive surge of energy, and in that instant, he broke through to the pinnacle of the Void Stage."Hmm? He actually b

    At that moment, the crowd was speechless.Adrian had ascended as if it were the easiest thing in the world.Faced with such a sight, no one could say much beyond admiration. Even if the Holy Son claimed Adrian had cheated, many secretly wished they could cheat the same way.Lacking Adrian's means, all they could do was envy him.Finnian chuckled. "Haha! You really caught us all by surprise, kid. Still, I'll count this as you repaying me a favor."For Finnian, the outcome couldn't have been better. With a broad smile, he seemed to have achieved his desired result. Adrian's successful climb was all that mattered to him.Once Adrian had vanished, the focus shifted to the rest of the group and their trials.When Adrian opened his eyes again, his entire body ached, but an oddly comforting sensation flowed through him. Surveying his surroundings, he realized he was now in a pond."Where am I?" he asked.Though uncertain about the place, Adrian knew he had cleared the trial and arriv

    The onlookers stared in bewilderment, their faces etched with confusion as they struggled to grasp the unfolding events.Meanwhile, Adrian seethed with barely contained rage. This wasn't his first encounter with such torment. Every few steps he ascended, another trial awaited.To Adrian, the relentless punishments felt suffocating. Yet he pressed on—this was the final stretch of the climb. "Adrian, hang in there!" Andy shouted, urging him to conquer the last step. To Andy, reaching that final step symbolized Adrian's growth. He had witnessed Adrian's remarkable resilience countless times and held unwavering faith in his potential. In Andy's eyes, Adrian was destined for greatness. Adrian's expression turned cold as he locked his gaze on the steps ahead. Determination flickered in his eyes. "If reaching the top guarantees a reward, it doesn't have to be me up there. As long as someone makes it, that's enough." With that, he shifted his focus to the void above and formed

    Adrian felt as if every nerve in his body was beyond his control. A deep sense of grievance filled his heart as the divine thunder from the void relentlessly crashed down.Rage surged within him, but under the onslaught of endless forces, he felt weak and constrained.Still, he had no choice but to press forward. He knew victory was within reach if he could endure a little longer—giving up now would mean death.If he fell, the shame and humiliation would crush him.Below, the Holy Son and others waited, eager to see him fail and mock him. This left Adrian no option but to push forward, striving toward the void above and his ultimate goal.The violent forces continued to bombard him from the sky.With every step, the thunder's impact intensified tenfold. His soul, already battered from a fierce battle with a horde of beasts, now felt as though it was dragging his exhausted body forward.Anyone else would likely have succumbed to despair. After all, under such immense pressure, ev

    The oppressive forces descending from the void seemed determined to halt Adrian’s ascent up the staircase.Yet he refused to yield. To him, these overwhelming challenges were merely obstacles to conquer.He pressed forward with relentless determination.Thunderbolts continued to rain down, but the ominous red light from before did not return—a relief, as he never wished to endure its crushing weight again.The memory of that light still haunted him, leaving a lingering sense of helplessness. Its suffocating pressure had drained his strength, reducing him to a gasping, powerless state.Despite the toll on his body and mind, Adrian remained singularly focused on reaching the final step. His burning desire for greater power drove him forward, unwavering and resolute.Step by step, he ascended, reaching the 95th step in what felt like an instant.Only five steps remained. His gaze locked onto the summit, and a wild glint lit his eyes. A daring idea sparked within him, consuming his

    Adrian pondered his situation, his cold gaze reflecting simmering frustration. Yet deep down, he recognized that whoever had designed the staircase was far from ordinary.Creating such a formidable trial required unimaginable power.Even a pinnacle Void Stage expert—or perhaps someone of the Multiply Stage—might bow in reverence before the ladder's creator."He won't last much longer. The divine lightning in this void is utterly destructive. In moments, he'll be reduced to ashes," sneered the Holy Son, his sharp eyes gleaming with malice.To the Holy Son, Adrian's demise was inevitable. Adrian had dared to offend him, and he was certain such audacity could only lead to death.Adrian caught the Holy Son's words and cast him a frosty glare. His intent to kill was unmistakable, though now wasn't the time.The staircase was no place for personal vendettas—eliminating him here would require careful planning.He also knew the Holy Son carried seals of immense power. A reckless move co

    Finnian's sharp gaze reflected a hint of admiration. "Kid, you owe me a big favor this time. You'd better treasure this opportunity."Adrian remained silent, unsure how to respond. His cold eyes revealed no emotion, though he fully grasped the challenges ahead.Fear was a luxury he couldn't afford—he'd come too far to back down now.Suddenly, a streak of red light surged from the void, hurtling toward Adrian with terrifying speed. His eyes widened in shock as the crimson beam struck him, slamming him against the staircase.Caught off guard, Adrian collapsed, sprawled helplessly on the steps.The crowd below watched in astonishment. No one had expected his seemingly indestructible body to be overwhelmed so easily.The Holy Son sneered. "Haha! It seems he's triggered some kind of taboo. Let's see how arrogant he is now!"His voice dripped with schadenfreude, his eyes gleaming with malicious satisfaction as he relished Adrian's struggle.Despite the crushing force, Adrian refused

    "What exactly is up there pulling me so strongly?" Adrian's expression hardened as he pondered the mysterious force drawing him upward.A surge of violent energy erupted across the sky, crashing down like a raging storm.Adrian advanced cautiously, each step deliberate and precise.Gone were the reckless strides of before—now he moved with steely determination, fully aware of the lurking dangers.He'd learned that the void's formidable forces seemed to target him directly, compelling him to proceed step by step. Any attempt to bypass its unseen barriers would provoke a devastating strike."Ridiculous," Adrian muttered. "If I've chosen to climb, nothing will stop me."The void's relentless power intensified.Bolts of thunder hammered down mercilessly, battering Adrian's body. Yet fear never crossed his mind.What was there to be afraid of?To him, the divine thunder wasn't an obstacle—it was a crucible, a tool to temper his body and strengthen his resolve.Despite the storm, A
