The Violet Rain Bird was serious. Adrian understood why it was acting this way. Someone willing to risk their life to protect others, like Adrian, had earned the deep respect and affection of the Violet Rain Bird."No, I know my fate. You both should focus on recovering and leave this place immediately. It’s too dangerous here, and I don’t want you to risk everything over something small," Adrian said calmly, his words resonating deeply with the other two.Tyron, filled with emotion, replied, "Adrian, I feel so ashamed. Being your friend is the greatest blessing of my life."The Violet Rain Bird shared the same sentiment. They both felt fortunate to be Adrian's friend.Adrian smiled faintly. "You’re exaggerating. I’m not that remarkable. Growing alongside you has been my greatest joy."His tone carried a hint of emotion, making Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird feel even more pained. The Violet Rain Bird thought that if it hadn’t acted so impulsively, Adrian wouldn’t be in this situa
The four attackers were certain that the Violet Rain Bird and its companions would obey them. In their eyes, loyalty and compassion were worthless when facing death. They believed most would abandon such emotions easily.But Adrian stared at them with a cold, piercing gaze, and Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird mirrored his icy demeanor. Then Adrian let out a chilling laugh. "Is that so? You're just four worthless fools. You've been hiding all this time, afraid to strike because of our strength. Now that we're injured, you think you have the upper hand?""Kill him!" one of the figures hissed, his anger betraying the truth. They had indeed feared Adrian, the Cyan Light Bird, and the Violet Rain Bird. But now, with one divine bird dead and the other two injured, they felt more confident."Hahaha, you arrogant fool! Today, you'll learn humility!" one of the black-robed figures bellowed, charging at Adrian.At that moment, Adrian smiled. The attacker saw it but assumed Adrian was just inv
Startled, Keaton cautiously turned, unleashing hidden weapons around him to shield himself, even protecting the space above his head. In his mind, no matter how powerful Adrian was, he couldn’t break through the defenses surrounding him."Do you really think that will help?" Adrian’s eerie voice echoed as a flash of blue light suddenly burst near Keaton, illuminating the space and blinding everyone."Keaton, watch out!""Behind you!""No, he's in front of you!"The remaining three shouted warnings, each sensing a different threat. Keaton, however, felt like the space around him was being sliced into layers.Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird watched in disbelief. As they looked closer, they realized the space around them had folded."Is this spatial folding?" Tyron asked, horrified, and the Violet Rain Bird was just as astonished.After a moment of closer inspection, Tyron said, "No, it’s a spatial formation! But when did he set this up? How did he construct it with such precision?
"Argh!"Keaton's anguished scream echoed through the air, though it sounded as if it came from a different dimension. Tyron and the Violet Rain Bird froze in disbelief. They had clearly seen what happened, but they hadn’t heard a thing—until now. The sound felt distant, disconnected from the scene before them.Tyron’s eyes widened in shock as he stared at Adrian. Beside him, the Violet Rain Bird stood silently, carefully sensing the distorted space. With its heightened perception, it could feel the strange rhythms, though it couldn’t fully grasp the mechanics of the space Adrian occupied. "Master Adrian is terrifying..." the Violet Rain Bird whispered."Let’s go! We have to save Keaton!" The remaining three charged toward Adrian, lightning-fast. In an instant, they were upon him, but as they got closer, they realized something was terribly wrong."Sorry, but you’re too late. Keaton is about to die." Adrian sneered, holding an invisible blade aimed at Keaton’s neck."No!" they sc
As the three men prepared to strike, Adrian smiled. "This is exactly what I wanted."No sooner had he spoken than countless versions of Adrian appeared in the surroundings, launching themselves at the trio from every direction. The men were visibly shocked, unable to comprehend how Adrian had so many duplicates.However, the leader remained calm. He had faced countless life-and-death situations before and quickly steadied his companions. "Don’t panic. This must be an illusion."Reassured by their leader, the other two nodded and charged at Adrian’s copies. The sound of metal clashing filled the air, but suddenly, all the versions of Adrian vanished into thin air."What’s going on?" The three were left dumbfounded."Don’t think about it! Just charge and kill him! Once he’s dead, it’ll all be over!" the leader roared. If they could kill Adrian, everything else would fall into place.Adrian, however, remained calm as the three men advanced. "Perfect timing," he said with a faint smi
"Hmph! Even if he is powerful, I refuse to believe our blood-nurtured child can’t break this pathetic formation!" one of the men exclaimed, his eyes turning bloodshot.The leader beside him replied coldly, "Don’t underestimate him. He hasn’t revealed himself yet, which means he’s likely waiting for the right moment. We need to break through this spatial formation so we can locate him."The leader understood that Adrian controlled everything within this space. Only by shattering the formation could they access the outside world and use the external energy to detect Adrian’s presence. With a clear plan, the leader guided the others, and they followed his commands without hesitation.Suddenly, a terrifying tremor shook the entire area."Be careful, Adrian!" Tyron called out anxiously from a distance. It looked like Adrian might be overwhelmed if he wasn’t cautious.The Violet Rain Bird frowned and said, "Master Adrian's plans are beyond what an ordinary person can comprehend. I belie
Tyron was stunned. "Where did Adrian go? What’s happening here?" he exclaimed.Beside him, the Violet Rain Bird remained silent, its massive eyes closed as though deep in thought over what had just occurred."What’s going on?" Tyron's anxiety grew, wondering if Adrian had been overwhelmed by that blood-red force.The power of the blood-red force was truly terrifying, shattering the very fabric of space itself. Such a fearsome energy was hard to comprehend."Where is he? Did he die? Did he die from our attack?" Diego, nearby, was confused and uncertain.Iwan, wearing a cold expression, offered his guess. "It’s possible. This level of power isn’t something an ordinary person could survive."As the group speculated, their leader’s face darkened. He couldn’t believe Adrian had vanished just like that.Suddenly, powerful gusts of wind swirled through the void. The blood-red force, which had disappeared moments before, was now being drawn together and condensed, flowing toward a crack
What kind of monster was Adrian? Despite the overwhelming force, he absorbed the energy with ruthless intensity."I don’t believe it! This is the combined strength of all three of us. How could he possibly take it all in?" The trio was horrified.But Adrian, suspended in the void, was unfazed by their disbelief. Eyes closed, he appeared to savor the power as it surged into him."Die!" The three launched a combined attack, determined to obliterate Adrian, their assault tearing through the air.Boom! Boom! Boom!The air trembled with such intensity that it was impossible to remain calm. Tyron and the other figure were stunned. To rush in now would be walking straight into death. One wrong move, and they would meet a tragic end. There was no surviving a collision with the three attackers. Being hit meant they would likely disappear completely."Be careful, Adrian!" Tyron called out, shaken. Could Adrian withstand such a terrifying force? Not just anyone could pull off a miracle unde
