In front of a huge black temple in the middle of a desert, loud cries of pain and shrieks reverberated.

"The left formation is collapsing! We need to send troops over there!"

"I am on my way."

KWANG!KWANG!KWANG!KWANG!

"Why are these guys so strong?"

"Once we break down the front row, we will push forward."

More than a million people gathered there consisting of the remaining warriors of the world fighting against Demons and black armour knights pouring out of the temple.

The level of force with which the warriors tried to enter the temple was very high but the power of the guardians defending the temple was also strong.

At the back, a man with bluish armour stood there with a solemn expression.

Besides him, three heavenly generals of his observed the battle.

The man peeked at his three comrades with a nostalgic expression.

"I don't know what you are thinking.''A green-haired elf with a cold arrogant expression spoke nonchalantly.

"You gambled everything and moved the entire army here without caring about the repercussions.'

The Demon Temple was the place connected to thr Demon Castle. Frederick ordered every soldier to breach the place. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝑒𝘵

The idea was to get to the Demon King in one go, it looked like a good idea but it wasn't.

Because they left the entire world unguarded. That means, there was no one to defend against the Demons who might already be rampaging and slaughtering the innocents.

Even if they kill the Demon King, that doesn't mean they win the war as even without the Demon King, the Demons would become more lawless.

"He wants to smash everything. I like it."

Beside green haired elf, a bald head dwarf with a huge bulky body cracked his knuckles. Unlike others, this dwarf was anything but a Dwarf due to his large body with menacing bulging muscles.

"Brad, stop using your head that is filled with muscles."

"What did you say? Let me crack your head and see how many brain cells you have." Brad roared, making his bulging muscles tremble.

"And Elena, stopped bickering."

"Hmph!" Elena snorted and flicked her hair back ignoring everyone.

A few steps away from them, a long grey-haired man with a snow white face holding a magic staff sitting on a boulder reprimanded.

"Aeon, shut off or I will beat the crap out of you." Elena spoke, raising her hand over which a small orb of magic energy appeared.

"You can try it with me first." Brad laughed and hit his fist with an excited smile, sending a powerful shockwave.

Frederick sighed seeing them bickering and raised his hand to calm the team who seemed to be quite dissatisfied with his decision.

"Let's stop, we need..."

A thin line appeared over the sky that started enlarging.

"As expected, it was happening even before we reached the Demon King." Frederick sighed and rubbed his shoulders seeing the countdown striking zero.

He knew that the scene was modified otherwise if he had to take down The Demon King and then face the attack, it might take many years.

"Oh my god!"Elena screamed in shock. Her pair of green eyes almost contracted into a small dot seeing the line appearing over the sky.

Aeon and Brad's expressions hardened, seeing the scene.

"It's really happening. I thought this was a joke." Aeon muttered with a stern expression and got up from his seat.

"Don't panic, I think we have prepared well enough." Frederick assured them and stared at the huge crack in the sky.

He then looked at the ring that could give him an extra life. This was a personal item that Luna took with her grave.

This ring was quite dear to Luna so Frederick rejected it as he had never thought he would require an extra lifeline however he was proved wrong.

He suppressed his guilt of digging Luna's grave and made sure to hide the ring so that God wouldn't notice this otherwise his plan would fail.

"Aeon!" Frederick's agitated voice echoed as he pulled out his Doom Piercer and took his stance pointing at the sky.

"I know!" Aeon screamed as his staff glowed and magical energy burst out from it, sweeping everything.

Mystical magical words resounded and Aeon's pupil changed its shape and two grey draconic wings sprouted from his back.

Thousands of magic circles overlapped in the area.

Elena and Brad released their aura making the world tremble.

Then they looked back at Frederick and gave him a smile to encourage him.

"Don't worry things will surely be different this time." Brad gave a thumbs up.

"Just do what you are good at. Don't let the past hold you back and say hello to Rose, Parth and Luna in the future." Elena smiled and winked at Frederick.

"You owe me greatly this time."Aeon stared at his teammates with a smug smile, and then a blinding light burst out illuminating everything.

"Goodbye!"The three of them muttered before their image disappeared.

......

On the Third floor of the tower, a blinding flash erupted and with a flicker, Frederick's image appeared.

As he stepped in, he collapsed onto the ground drenched in sweat.

"It's horrible!" Frederick mumbled, holding his trembling hand.

His blue eyes shook with fear thinking about the scene he had gone through just a moment ago.

"I think my trial is the hardest, however." Frederick shook his head.

If not for the life-substituting ring and mass-scale teleportation to another plane at the cost of his friends' life force, he would have failed the test.

Aeon was a dragon who had a thousand years of lifespan but despite that, it fell short to complete the magic which led to many people willing to sacrifice their lives.

And even though they teleported, the force of the strike still bore them which almost killed the remnants.

Frederick rubbed his red eyes and took a deep breath to stop himself from drowning in sadness.

"They are alive. They aren't dead."

"Doom, except for their image, quickly seal the image of the last scene. Though the scene was entirely different, things may go differently if the Demon King manages to peek into them."

[It's done. You can access tiny bits as long as you want.]

"Hmm!'

Thinking about the images disappearing, his eyes became more resolute than before.

'I need to find them sooner. And for that, I need to get stronger to begin my venture.'

As Frederick lay on the soft cozy grass for an unknown amount of time, three pairs of heads of various colours appeared in his vision.

"Huh?! You all have already finished the test?" Frederick sprang up on his feet and stared at the three in surprise.

"It was easy." Parth murmured and whistled, feeling bored.

"I just had to get out of a place. For me to sneak out and sneak in, is the easiest thing." Parth spoke with a smug expression and then stared at Charles.

"I got the quest to overcome a scenario of hunting a person." Charles replied calmly while folding his hands and then turned his head to avert the curious gazes lest they knew he lied.

Charles then stared at Frederick's pale expression and asked"What did you encounter?"

"Just to get over some typical bullies nothing much."Frederick waved his hand with a nonchalant look.

A hush silence lingered for a moment as many felt that Frederick lied.

Parth, to break the silence, kicked Roan.

"Ouch!" Raon groaned and jumped back.

"What the..."

"So, what did you encounter? I thought you wouldn't make it till here."Parth spoke with a smile while wrapping his hand around Roan's neck, which was shrinking back.

Roan glared at Parth as if he was going to bite him to death and answered with a reluctant voice while swaying his body with nervousness.

"To hunt dogs."

"What?"

Frederick, Parth and Charles asked with a loud voice filled with shock.

"I...I was afraid of street dogs as they used to chase after me when I got out of home. I got the quest to overcome my fear by crossing the road filled with dogs and hunt them if they attack me."

"Uuu!It was so difficult."Roan covered his face feeling embarrassed.

Pfft!

Parth almost puked blood hearing this.

"What kind of shit is this?"

"It's unfair. I am raising this issue. I am going to strike and protest that shitty Josh. This is unfair." Parth screamed, holding his chest as if he was feeling the deep pain of betrayal.

Frederick and Charles staggered on their feet and stared at each other unable to find words to speak while Roan cowered with a flustered expression under their gaze.

Frederick clenched his fist and his blue eyes looked up.

'Heavens, why are you so unfair to me?'

'Tower, this is cheating.'

'My trial was easy. There is no need to feel jealous of him.' Charles patted his chest and closed his eyes to console himself.

Only he knew how he managed to defeat Frederick. He sacrificed one of his hands to surprise Frederick's team and take the chance to kill them.

"So, you all are already here."

At that moment, an arrogant voice emerged from the back.

"Here comes the shithead." Parth grumbled with a distorted expression.

"Since you are here, he should also be here." Ezekiel asked with a sinister expression.

His dark eyes seemed to be spewing venom with just a peek.

Fortunately, Ezekiel had come alone without a group of those annoying flies.

"Who?" Frederick asked, raising his brows.

"You know who I am talking about."Ezekiel's tone pressed on Frederick.

Parth pushed Frederick aside making him stumble and stepped in.

"What the..?"Frederick stopped seeing Parth's serious expression.

Charles shook his head and decided to step back. If it was someone else, he would have helped, however...

It would be better if this guy gets beaten and cries asking for help.

Parth stood calmly under Ezkiel's heated gaze and his lips curled upwards with an annoying smile.

The heated atmosphere drew the other attention nearby.

"Hey, Ezekiel tell me."

"Why are you so obsessed with him?" Parth brows creased and he rubbed his chin.

Then he snapped and opened his mouth wide.

"I get it now!" Parth clapped and laughed.

"You are a masochist that swings both ways."

Pfffftttt!

Silence lingered for a moment that was broken by loud hysterical laughter.

"I will kill you." Ezekiel screamed in anger and lunged at Parth but before he could teach him a lesson, a mass of ice wall appeared in between the two.

Ezekiel and Parth stepped back with startled expressions wondering who intervened.

Just then, a cold ethereal voice echoed in the vicinity that gave them chills down their spine, freezing the whole atmosphere.

"No fighting until the Trial Start."

"You have got some valuable time so instead of setting your mindset and getting ready, you are already wasting time and quarreling?"

As everyone turned their gaze, they saw the students of the council club lead by a mesmerizing cold beauty walking forward gracefully.

"Let's see who wants to create trouble in my presence."

......

Lucas' heart thumped wildly, feeling the excruciating bone-crushing pain weighing down upon him.

The moment those eyes fell on him, Lucas knew that he didn't stand a chance.No matter what, the gap between 8-Star and 9-Star was too vast to jump in.

He would have a chance if this was human but to his misfortune, this is a dragon who is said to be invincible even if you were in the same realm so how could he defeat it?

Before attacking, he naturally had some consideration. According to a Dragon's behavior, he shouldn't have intervened in the battle.

They are haughty, arrogant and prideful so it would stain their pride if they fight people beneath them so unless a 9-Star expert appeared, Asuka shouldn't make a move.

'My shit luck is too op. It even forced a Dragon to make a move on me.' Lucas chuckled with a calm smile but his heart was anything but calm.

'There must be something that this dragon noticed in me that made him feel threatened. What's that?' Lucas tried to unravel the mystery but he hadn't time to ponder.

As mighty pressure enveloped not only him but the entire grand canyon.

"Ant, you dare to look into my eyes and laugh in my presence."

Asuaka roared, activating the Dragon's fear and overwhelming everything with dreariness and horror.

Even Lucas who was running forward suddenly felt his leg frozen like a statue and his body collapsed with an intense shiver that made his vision blank.
