Divine Emperor of Death

Claraʼs eyes widened in astonishment, ʼWait, isnʼt the duel supposed to continue? There are still two more minutes... Why is Uncle Jonas surrendering?ʼ

She didnʼt want to end the battle too soon. This was also one of the reasons she didnʼt act too quickly to end the battle, for she had wanted to experience and train in the laws she had comprehended.

Her closed rosy lips opened for a moment before closing as her astonishment receded. She then nodded her head in acceptance and dispelled the commands she had given.

Jonas also felt that the restrictions imposed both on him and the area was removed. He pursed his lips and thought annoyingly, ʼHow am I supposed to battle with my abilities and movements sealed like this?ʼ

He can only shake his head to his own question because the sealing of his attacks and movements can also be considered a part of his nieceʼs prowess, leaving him unable to retort.

Clara had already spent more than 50% of her essence energy, so if Jonas didnʼt give up, for the remaining battle, she could only sparingly use her techniques.

But she could also see that the essence energy her uncle Jonas used was also a lot as he conjured a lot of wind techniques to get rid of her Ice Phoenix Lance Descent.

If the battle prolonged, the chances of her losing increased and decreased since her techniques cost more essence energy than the other party.

This is the cultivation gap which she wouldnʼt be able to overcome in a short period of time.

Nevertheless, within the 5-minute limit, Clara would be forced to use more of her energy from the onslaught that Jonas would launch at her for him to win. So her chances of winning became quite slim after dispelling the commands.

If she didnʼt dispel the commands of her own volition, then it was obvious that she would be the victor of the duel.

Furthermore, if Clara was also at the Mid-Level Law Seed Stage, then battling for a prolonged time with Uncle Jonas wasnʼt a problem at all!

Jonas laughed as he walked on the air, his steps creating formless ripples in the air below his feet.

In a few seconds, he traveled fast and stood before her stately figure. He glanced at the part of the empressʼs robe he ripped and with a complicated gaze, he lowered his stature and kneeled down.

”Your Majesty, it was impetuous of me to stare at your ethereal beauty for a long time. I apologize.”

Finishing his speech, he kowtowed once for a few seconds before standing up.

Clara just nodded her head as if this apology was to be expected.

Looking at her indifferent reaction, Jonasʼs expression became awkward. As her uncle, he felt more humiliated when kowtowing to his niece, however...

When he had kowtowed, he did not forget to cast an illusion in this area! Everyone would have just thought he and Clara were just staring at each other! No one had seen him kowtow! And that was why he did not feel that much embarrassment!

”Uhh... I want to ask about something, can I?” Jonas hesitatingly asked.

”Go ahead. As for receiving an answer, that depends on the question.”

Jonasʼs eyes twitched before he asked, ”What was that technique you used to seal my movements and even my illusions? Or is that a type of law?”

”Itʼs the latter.”

”I see...” Jonas nodded his head and placed his fingers on his chin as if he were pondering about but in reality, he was considering how he should downplay this loss of his...

All that talk but nothing to back it up!

The more he thought about it, the more his face burned in shame.

He shook his head and then said, ”Alright, Iʼll go first...”

Clara watched her uncleʼs silhouette heading to the Royal Castle. She then deactivated the Low-Level Sky Grade Defensive Formation which protected the Royal Castle from their stray attacks.

Just when she was about to follow her uncle back, she felt a tinge of undulations coming from a certain direction. When she turned to look in the distance, she saw a tiny brown speck in the distance.

ʼWhat is that?ʼ Clara wasnʼt able to identify the tiny brown dot temporarily. She decided to wait and see what exactly was it.

That tiny brown speck in the distance enlarged as time passed and Clara was finally able to identify the entity.

Her pupils instantly dilated!

ʼThis...ʼ Clara turned stunned as she felt the increasing undulations. An impending sense of danger encroached her heart! She instantly reactivated the defensive formation of the Royal Castle, alerting the people below.

Jonas who was on his way to the Royal Castle had already detected the anomaly. He instantly shot to the skies and stood in front of Clara.

In the next few seconds, Viktor too arrived, along with Hendrickson and Randal who were a few seconds late due to their low cultivation.

By this time, the tiny silhouette in the distance was already large, large enough to cover a little bit of their view over the skies.

Jonas inadvertently took a step back in fear, ”What? What is that?”

”How!!? Such a magical beast canʼt possibly exist!” Hendrickson shouted with a hoarse voice that originated from his dry throat.

Almost everyone gulped their saliva and unconsciously took a step back, thinking that a calamity has arrived.

However, once Clara saw the features of the magical beast, she relaxed and let out a relaxed sigh in her heart.

The Magical Beast was about 30 kilometers away from them, however, its figure was visible for all of them to witness.

In half a minute, the small figure of the magical beast turned massive when it floated in front of them, its huge wings giving birth to waves of wind that thrashed on them as their long hair danced in the air.

Other than Clara, each of them had their pupils dilate in trepidation, their lips trembling not daring to let out a word from their mouths.

A huge mammal-like body that has two huge wings stretching out from the backside of its chest. Its four limbs were facing the surface, with at least one its leg able to stomp down an object in a ten-meter wide radius into a pulp.

Its entire body was almost covered by dark yellow scales. On top of the scales on its back, and knees were hardened black-red shells that were protruding out like a near sharp rock mountain.

Around the base is its neck was a soft yet sturdy yellow-red mane, flowing down to its slightly protruding chests and its back.

Its long head had two short, blunt yet edged horns.

Its large reptilian-like black eyes blinked at them with a yellow hue surrounding it, radiating a mighty yet female charm along with the steamy breath released from its nostrils.

Viktor, Jonas, Hendrickson, Randal and almost all the people in the capital city gulped again as they observed the enormous magical beast.

They were like ants in front of its mighty presence and its fierce undulations left them shuddering in fear.

Unlike the others, Clara walked to the front and her gaze wasnʼt afraid. She passed by her uncle who then suddenly turned to look at her.

Jonas came out of his reverie and shouted, ”Donʼt go!”

Just when Jonas was about to extend his hand and pull her to his back, he heard a resounding roar!

”Who is Clara Loret!?”
