Chapter 448

Chapter 448: The Event(1)

The sudden shaking of the land began from the Mysterious peak. It resulted in the arrival of several natural disasters at once, ravaging the Kingdoms neighboring the mountain.

Aakesh, who had been relaxing on his chair, opened his eyes at this sudden situation. Due to the system, the store’s building didn’t feel anything, but the same couldn’t be said for the market and Kakot.

The shake started taking the shape of an earthquake when suddenly Brinda, the King of the Bisan and Blue Wyrm Kingdom, stepped out of her palace.

Using the badge that adorned her chest, she controlled the natural disasters around these two Kingdoms and brought them to an end.

Still, three seconds of disaster rampantly affected the area around the mountain.

On the Bisan Kingdom’s side, even the nearest city to Mysterious peak was tens of thousands of miles away due to vicious beasts being in higher numbers on this side, so the city was able to survive.

The same couldn’t be said for the city on the Blue Wyrm Kingdom’s side. It was only a few hundred miles away from the mountain, and it faced the brunt of the sudden situation.

Disasters nakedly danced on the city. When Brinda acted, she was too late. The city had already turned into a ruin, taking the lives of more than a billion innocent citizens.

Even then, the Blue Wyrm Kingdom was on the better-faced side. The neighboring Kingdom that shared the border of Mysterious peak with it, but not with the Bisan Kingdom, had half of the Kingdom razed to the ground, taking the lives of more than two hundred billion. Since it had no Brinda to help, the destruction stopped on its own.

Brinda wanted to help the neighboring Kingdoms as well since she had plans to conquer those territories in the future, but unfortunately for her, the badge only gave her power to act inside her controlled areas, not ruled by others.

“Yes!” The hooded figure jumped in excitement.

He was the cause behind the sudden arrival of so many natural disasters at once.

A gate adorned with different patterns stood there in front of him.

The gate was black in color, and on it, there were patterns imprinted of different beasts in different colors.

The gate looked to be a gate without exit or entry as it was on open ground, but seeing the excitement on the hooded figure’s face, anyone could see that it was anything but ordinary.

“I did it, master,” The hooded figure commented in excitement, seeing the gate.

He then took out a key from his space ring.

The key looked to be the same shape as the lock of the door. It was golden in color, with the collar portion and key wards in black.

The hooded figure then placed the key in the keyhole on the gate.

He then pushed it instead of spinning it to open the door. He was doing everything according to what was told to him.

The next moment, the gate started having changes as the key melted into the keyhole, blocking that area.

“Eh! Why did it stop?” The hooded figure mumbled in surprise as the process wasn’t to stop here but continue, and in the end, the gate would open.

From the gate, his master would step out. He would then give him everything he ever wanted as a reward for freeing his master.

The hooded figure wasn’t someone from outside like Pucchi, but he had lived here his entire life.

Six hundred years ago,

Ronald lived in the city of Rusot. It was the city located in the Blue Wyrm Kingdom, nearest to the Mysterious peak.

The Mysterious peak was abundant with resources, so the citizens of Rusot were living fulfilling and satisfying lives.

Ronald, on the other hand, wasn’t satisfied with this life. His father was the next in line to be the city head, so Ronald always needed to control his actions as even a single wrong move would take away his father’s chances at the top position.

Ronald hated his father for turning him into a caged parrot and forcing him to do things against his will. One day, his mind finally broke down, and he ran from his house.

Since the Mysterious peak was the only place around Rusot where people working for Ronald’s father wouldn’t be able to find him, Ronald chose it as his destination.

Before running, he didn’t forget to take a vow, ‘I would return here one day with ultimate strength and kill Sandar Turap.’

Sandar was his father’s name, while Turap was the family name. He hated his father so much that Ronald wanted to kill him.

Running and running brought him to the Mysterious peak. He then started living a life of an ascetic there.

He had his fixed schedule. He would give an hour for eating or other miscellaneous things, four hours to his sleep, and the remaining hours for his training.

At first, his schedule turned out to be extremely difficult for him as before running away from his family, he had lived a life of luxury. Even though Ronald’s actions were controlled, he still got everything he wanted.

As time passed, he got accustomed to the training and started growing stronger day by day.

Due to Mysterious peak being abundant with resources, he never had to compromise. His cultivation grew at a good rate.

In a blink of an eye, thirty years had passed.

Ronald, who looked to be a teenager when he ran from his house, looked to be a wild man, with hairs touching the ground and a beard touching his waist. He looked like he had not taken a bath for years.

“Roar!”

An angry roar rang in the area as a beast chased Ronald.

Ronald had stolen the prey of the beast, so now it was chasing Ronald for revenge and wanted him to be its hunt.

“Come on, ugly beast, why so slow,” Ronald mocked the beast.

Even though the beast was stronger than Ronald, its movements were slow, so Ronald didn’t look to be in fear.

“ROAR!”

The beast’s eyes turned red from anger as it understood his mocking tone. The next moment, it opened its mouth, and a grey energy ball started gathering at the tip.

It was an earth ball made up of the element of earth.

Ronald, using all his strength, leaped on the nearest tree. He then started running at an even quicker speed.

A/N: Three for today as well. Most probably for tomorrow too. Sorry, I would make it up to in the next coming weeks.
