As the words fell, the central square fell into silence, the tense atmosphere ready to explode at any moment. Both commoners and nobles turned their gaze to the Emperor. Their eyes, which had once been filled with the reverence of subjects looking up to their ruler, now resembled those of dying people clutching at a glimmer of hope. Their emotions were all guided by Bolan—Emperor, you are the Emperor. In your oath, you said that supreme power comes with immense responsibility, and you must protect…- 224.9 K • Completed
- "Adrishig said everything is under control," Lin Wei gazed at the colossal statue of the goddess. "Forcing a full awakening before the goddess has regained all her power, we'll be able to inflict substantial damage once she manifests a physical form." Duan Yu glanced at the desolate surroundings, devoid of any human presence. "Is the battlefield here?" "Yes, the Magic Association evacuated yesterday and entered a state of wartime readiness. Only the Law Enforcers and high-level mages remain in the…

- After the military incident in the central square and the announcement by the Senate the next day that the Crown Prince would be crowned immediately, the news of the old Emperor's passing finally spread throughout the Empire. The common folk didn’t feel much—the old Emperor had lived a life of neither great achievements nor failures, and in the hearts of the people, he was a somewhat indistinct symbol. As long as their lives remained as stable as before, it didn’t matter much to them who ruled the…

- "I don't know much, but perhaps I can be of help to you." The man pondered for a moment before continuing, "First, tell me what you already know." The two of them walked through the snowstorm toward their residence, and Lin Wei recounted everything truthfully. "When I was young and out in the world, I met Adrishig," the man told him. "He was always secretive, and you could only believe half of what he said." Lin Wei looked at him. "Which half should I believe, then?" "If he wants to do…

- The Empress clearly found the matter absurd and said helplessly, "You're overthinking this." However, the members of the Senate didn’t seem to share her sentiment. Upon hearing this, they frowned and turned to Gregory: "Your Highness, you need to provide evidence." The death of the old Emperor was a significant event, and falsely accusing a noble was equally grave—the Senate, as the body responsible for handling and adjudicating matters related to the Imperial Family and the nobility, was most…

- The flowing magma in the Valley of Flame gradually solidified, its bright, scorching crimson fading into a deep, lifeless red. The residents of the western continent first felt an inexplicable coolness in the weather, and then—the rampant "strange illness" grew even more severe. People hid in their homes, shutting their doors and windows tightly. This was the only way to slightly alleviate the symptoms. But as soon as they stepped outside, pain from all over their bodies tore through them.…

- Lin Wei lay on the bed, pondering seriously. He felt that this wouldn’t do. He thought it was unreasonable for him to feel guilty. "My mage has no flaws to criticize. I should be boasting about him to my father, not avoiding him," he thought to himself. "If he dares to say that neither of us can produce an heir for the Tidis family, I’ll pull out the contract between the Empire and the Magic Association—strictly speaking, I’m no longer considered a member of the Tidis family!"…

- “So, the gods from bedtime stories aren’t fictional after all. They are reviving, and your goal is to kill them?” Daniel thought for a moment and continued, “Moreover, the Goddess of Light is the leader of the gods, the main culprit behind the Elemental Storm, and your number one enemy?—This doesn’t sound like a fairy tale at all.” “Of course, it’s not a fairy tale,” Lin Wei shrugged. “But I have a question,” Daniel said. “What is it?” “You, Duan Yu,…

- Lin Wei did not return to his own room. Duan Yu was meditating and opened his eyes when he saw Lin Wei enter. He glanced up at the ceiling: "What's up there?" "The study and the reception room," Lin Wei didn’t know why he was asking but answered truthfully anyway. "Above that is the terrace—why do you ask?" "Just now, there was a fluctuation of spiritual energy from above," Duan Yu replied. After a moment, he added, "It was very subtle. I only noticed it because I was…

- The safe return of the eldest son had somewhat lightened the heavy thoughts of the old Emperor, and his condition had also improved. Tonight, he finally felt a bit of energy. "Isis, help me up." The Empress assisted the old Emperor to sit up against the soft cushions by the head of the bed: "The court physicians say your condition is improving... How do you feel?" The old Emperor's cloudy gaze fell on his wife's slightly haggard face, and he nodded slowly: "Better." The understanding Empress…
