In remembrance! In remembrance! Lord Nox, the God of War, succumbed to the siege by the Ten Nations and perished in the treacherous Ocean of Death. The battleground witnessed not only the staining of azure waters but also a sea adorned with lifeless forms, as Lord Nox, with unmatched prowess, faced and conquered the formidable lions of the Ten Nations.Contrary to popular belief attributing Lord Nox's demise to the collective might of the Ten Nations, the truth unfolds that the one responsible for extinguishing his life was none other than the woman who held the deepest place in his heart.In the passage of time, Nox Greenshade stood atop the towering peaks, gazing upon the vast expanse below filled with ivory remains. With determination etched on his face, he proclaimed, "The debt owed shall be repaid in blood!"
View MoreThe news stoked flames of anger within Nox's eyes. "If the Curseland Five harbors that bastard, I'll slaughter them all."Keith said nothing. He knew his lord could be arrogant, and he knew Nox would really slaughter the five clans. "There's something more, milord," blurted Keith."What is it?""Do you remember Ms. Hendrickson, your admirer?"Nox frowned. "Selina Hendrickson from Blathanna Sect?""Yes. Ever since you rejected her, she left the northern battlefront for Curseland. Blathanna Sect's in Southwest City, they say."Memories of Selina flitted through Nox's mind. She was the leader of the Blathanna Sect and an incredibly gorgeous woman. No one knew who she used to be or how she rose to fame.The only thing they knew was that the sect she led was on par with Sovereign's Society, Shadow Sect, and Chamber of Healers. They were the strongest four among Faeast's new sects.Blathanna Sect was made up of beautiful women, but they were not to be underestimated. They were profes
Curseland was in the southwestern zone of Faeast. Legend had it that this was where witchcraft was born. Though not everyone could cultivate, most knew of the legend of witchcraft and cursebugs.But with the advent of the modern age, the tales about witchcraft and cursebugs barely made their rounds around Curseland anymore.If it weren't for the fact they retained a lot of local customs and ancient buildings, Curseland would just be another modern metropolis, and it was a famous tourist spot. Tourism drew in billions every year.Three days later, a handsome silhouette appeared at the terminal of Curseland's airport. He was pushing a wheelchair, where an unconscious figure sat. To make sure no one knew the lady was in a coma, a pair of sunglasses were worn over her nose, covering her eyes.They were Nox and Queenie, of course."Milord, we're finally here!" an excited voice gushed. Jebediah followed Nox on this trip. He was carrying a lot of luggage. If not for his robes, he'd look
That did not sit well with Yvette at all. She disagreed, "You can't do this. Queenie's in a coma, and gods know if she'll wake up.""That's why I have to take her along, Mrs. Sanders. To cure her." Nox was right. Queenie was unconscious and nearly dead. She was only tethered to life by Nox's Revival and Ultimate Sun Dragon Manual.Nox had to take her along so he could heal her if needed, but Yvette had no idea about that. "I won't let you take her away. I won't. Even if she's awake, I can't let her go with you. And where are you taking her anyway?"Nox slowly raised his head, staring far into the southwest. He said, "To kill the people who did this to her.""Y-You're going to kill someone?" Yvette was horrified."Yes, and not someone. A lot of someones. They hurt the woman I love, and they will die for that." Nox's voice was dripping with murder, and Yvette went quiet.George stepped forth. "I'm on your side, Nox. Kill the bastards who did this to Queenie. Avenge her."Yvette pu
Nox's comrades looked crestfallen, especially Bear. His eyes went red, and he cried. "When will I see you again, milord?""Soon." Nox smiled.The consolation only made Bear cry more. Even Keith teared up. He said nothing and went down on his knees. Everyone else followed his example.Draco approached Nox. He lamented, "Very well, milord. If that is what you want. My army awaits your return. And once you do, we'll charge straight into Imperia and slaughter the Mousses."Nox looked at Draco and clapped his shoulder. And then, everyone was dismissed. Farewells were always sad, especially for these men. Nox was not just a god among men, but he was also their brother.Unbeknownst to him, Nox was reluctant to see them go as well. They were his comrades. His brothers. His family.Alas, Nox must look at the big picture. He couldn't ask them to stay with him while Faeast was slowly destabilized. This nation was his homeland, the place he called home.Dragoncourt fell into silence after t
Nox scanned all his comrades. "To the great hall. I have something to say.""Yes, milord."Everyone followed Nox into the great hall, and Nox took the main seat. His comrades took the seats beside him. Once everyone sat down, Nox announced, "This will be a big announcement.""Your orders, milord?" everyone asked.Nox looked at everyone once more. "You are to return to your posts. All of you. Effective immediately."The announcement stunned everyone.Bear blurted, "You want us to leave?"Everyone looked at Nox in confusion."Yes." Nox nodded. "All of you. Leave Dragoncourt. Leave this city.""What? Why? We've not avenged the lady, and we can't leave without seeing the wedding," Keith asked."The wedding's on hold for now. And you're leaving because you're not needed here anymore," said Nox."Milord! We cannot leave. Even if we set the lady's case aside, we still have to stay with you." Draco stood firm."Wrong," said Nox. "I'm just a civilian. I don't need you hanging around
At the central command center, Imperia.The Phoenix Chamber also housed Aphrodite's bedroom. She was in the main hall, dressed in crimson, her eyes closed. Behind her was Michael, the stony sabreur.A silhouette quickly came in. "Milord, the Demons have news." It was Houston.Aphrodite slowly opened her eyes, her gaze filled with venom. "Speak."Houston went down on his knees. "They have completed their mission. Sanders is infected with a thousand-corpse worm, the deadliest cursebug Curseland has. There is no known cure, and the victim doesn't die immediately. They will rot from within and waste away."Aphrodite laughed menacingly. "Good." She stared into the distance, her eyes filled with cruelty. "You must be in pain now, Nox. Though you're invincible, though you're a lord, but so what? You failed to protect your woman. You are impotent."She cackled. "It's not over. I'll make her suffer the worst this world has to offer. You'll rue the day you promised to marry her."…Two d
A long time after that, Nox said, "Let them in."Keith turned around. "The lord calls for you two.""Yes, thank you." George led Yvette into the room.Nox was still standing before Queenie's bed. Thanks to Nox's blood and Ultimate Sun Dragon Manual's energy, Queenie had regained some color, though still unconscious.The sight of their daughter unconscious made George and Yvette scream."Queenie, what happened?" George approached Queenie, shouting. Yvette followed him.There was no answer from Queenie, however.Scared, George turned to Nox. "What… what happened, Nox? What happened to her?" he asked with a trembling voice."Thousand-corpse worm. She won't be waking so soon," answered Nox honestly."What? Is that a poison or something?" George sobbed. "How'd this happen? Who did this? Who's the bastard?"Yvette was in tears as well. She held Queenie, shouting, "Queenie, wake up! It's me! I'm here. Wake up!"Nox consoled, "It's alright, you two. I promise I'll cure her.""You?
The sight of the guns almost made Yvette fall. She had no idea what was going on, but George did. These people were Nox's men."Hi, I'm looking for Nox. He's my daughter's husband. And this is Queenie's mother," introduced George.The Shadow Division members had no idea who they were. The burly man said shrilly, "I don't care who you are! Leave or die!"Things got awkward, but suddenly, a voice said, "A moment."Jebediah emerged from the crowd.George recognized him. He worked with Nox. Quickly, he ran up to Jebediah. "Master White, I'm Queenie's father. Please, I want to see her. And Nox."Jebediah knew George as well. He nodded. "The lord is inside. Go in.""Thank you!" George and Yvette ran up to the estate as fast as they could.Yvette was flabbergasted. She tugged on the hem of George's shirt, looking back at the crowd. "George, who are those people? They're armed," she asked tremulously.Without looking back, George answered, "They work for Nox.""They what?" Yvette gas
If he did, the Kirin Firepoison would burn through his innards. Nox wasn't scared of death, but who would save Queenie if he perished? He had to live.Nox took a deep breath, holding down the pain. He channeled his inner energy throughout his body, and golden energy flowed from within. A long, long time later, he finally held down the poison, and his chest returned to normal.He was drenched in sweat by the time he brought it under control, black blood hanging from the corners of his mouth. However, he didn't care. If he wanted to cure Queenie's poison, he must regain all his strength. The first part of that was to cure himself of Kirin Firepoison.As long as the poison was there, he wouldn't be able to focus on healing Queenie. Nox balled his fists at the thought of this.…While Nox was curing Queenie, a black BMW was zooming across the street, making its way to Dragoncourt."If it's a joke, it's not funny, Yvette. What happened to Queenie? What kind of stuff did you guys run i
