Chapter 528: Chapter 207: Gathering at Lionheart Castle_3

He didn’t seem like someone who could defeat himself.

"Whether I’m foolish or not, you’ll soon find out!" the man clad in silver armor roared as he raised his great sword and charged.

Following that, Greis caught the great sword single-handedly and grabbed the head of the man in silver armor, squeezing it fiercely.

The helmet was deformed in an instant, the man’s body went limp, blood flowed down his face, and his corpse fell directly to the ground.

The battle ended in a moment.

In the prophecies of the future, Greis had indeed been defeated, but that did not mean he would lose now. This world didn’t have so many men who could kill him by ignoring the physical gap, at least not the man in front of him. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"Why can’t they recognize reality?" Greis pondered aloud. His strength was well known, it was essentially no different from suicide to participate despite being so weak, yet there were still deluded challengers.

He couldn’t understand it at all.

It was like an amateur boxer challenging a world champion, everyone knew it was not possible to win, yet this amateur still dared to provoke.

"The winner is Greis!" the announcer stepped forward and declared to all the spectators, followed by their expressions of disappointment and inevitability.

"But this is just an appetizer, a man who has slain monsters and single-handedly destroyed a branch of the Dusk Cult, he is also called Ahtal!"

He looked towards Greis who was wiping the blood off his hand and said:

"I heard Greis has fought him before."

"We did fight," Greis openly admitted. "He slashed my cheek with a dagger."

He pointed at the corpse on the ground.

"He’s definitely stronger than this guy."

The master of the dueling arena smiled and declared to all the spectators, "In three days, this man who destroyed a branch of the Dusk Cult and killed monsters alone will come challenge Greis to see if he really is Ahtal or not."

Xi Mu raised his hand to rub his temple: "This is really quite the spectacle."

"What if that imposter wins?" Goddess of Plague asked while lightly arranging her hair behind her ear. "What will you do then?"

"Then I will bestow upon him the power of Ash Fire," Xi Mu said jokingly. "It would be very interesting."

Goddess of Plague widened her eyes: "Do you want to scare all the gods to death?"

If the person posing as Ahtal suddenly gained the power of Ash Fire, it would frighten the gods who were merely spectators.

They wondered if it was Ahtal himself who had come to the past.

...

...

Sky City.

"Ahtal appeared in Lionheart Castle?" Yasiraqi frowned, she clearly didn’t believe the rumor, but her body got up honestly.

She turned to Siegfried who was drinking next to her and said:

"Father, I want to go to Lionheart Castle."

"What do you plan to do?" Siegfried asked, seeing his daughter’s cold and murderous eyes, he immediately understood what his daughter intended.

"He really is a pitiful guy." He stroked his chin, guessing what his daughter was planning to do.

The fellow who usurped Lord Ahtal’s honor must die.

...

...

Iris Flower Kingdom.

Within a sealed stone chamber.

Letixia drew the Sword of Light from the stone slab and addressed her father nearby, "Father, I wish to travel to Lionheart Castle."

"The journey is too far," the grey-haired King said with a worried look, "by the time you reach Lionheart Castle, everything will have already ended."

This world is so vast; given the seclusion and frailty of the Iris Flower Kingdom, it was simply impossible for his daughter to reach Lionheart Castle swiftly.

"Father, I have contacted the Church of Death," Letixia explained with a smile, "Among them are those who retain memories of Ahtal, and they can get me to Lionheart Castle in the shortest time."

"Contact the Church of Death?" The grey-haired King tugged at his beard, displaying a conflicted expression, "They are indeed a very dangerous group."

Everyone in this world knew well the reputation of the Church of Death, a group that worshipped the Witch of Death, no less dangerous than the Dusk Cult.

Yet his daughter was interacting with these most dangerous of people.

Even though, as his daughter had mentioned, there must indeed be those within the Church of Death who kept records of future memories, based on the sake of Ahtal, they would be willing to help his daughter.

But there were still risks that remained uncertain.

"It’s dangerous for you," a pleasant female voice came, as a woman carrying a serrated great sword with a shark tail walked in.

Her gaze fell on Letixia.

"However, there’s no danger for her, as nobody wishes for this woman... to die, otherwise it would provoke Lord Ahtar at the end of time."

"Miss Kaschte, I entrust the next steps to you," Letixia stepped forward, walking up to Shark Girl Kaschte.

"Father, take good care of my sister."

"Go then," the grey-haired King waved his hand, now unable to interfere with his daughter, especially with everything she had mentioned and the premonition he had recently heard.

It all left him with an unreal sensation, as if his own daughter was indeed the lover of the King of Ash... no, it was correct to call her a lover.

It felt like one day his daughter suddenly announced that she had become partners with a deity, something anyone would find unbelievable.

Especially since the King of Ash is a being beyond deities.

...

...

High heavens.

Within the Temple of Destiny.

The Destiny Witch Hecate glanced briefly at the mortal world, observed the trajectory of destiny, then calmly withdrew her gaze.

Meanwhile, the Future Goddess sitting not far off on the ground saw this and asked, "Aren’t you going to punish the one impersonating your apprentice?"

"They will take action themselves," Hecate calmly shook her head, before activating a temporal rift to disconnect both herself and the Three Goddesses of Fate from the current flow of time.

Entering the temporal rift now wouldn’t hasten the arrival of Ragnarok, allowing her to gain more time for herself.
