Hail the King

Chapter 521: Return (Part One)

”It should?” Fei was a little shocked as he understood the underlying meaning. ”Should? You mean you aren’t sure about this method?”

”This…… This method came from [Demon King’s Wisdom]…… The Priestess and I discovered it, but we never used it before…… Eh, don’t be anxious. Although this is the first time, I can promise you that I tried these engravings in the stone room and in [Rogue Encampment], and they have no issues,” Cain quickly explained as Fei’s expression turned from shock to nervousness and anxiousness.

”Fei, don’t worry. I don’t think there is an issue.” Akara looked at the ninth level of the altar and tried to promise Fei. At the same time, she stared at Cain and complained, ”I told you that the 134th magic engraving in the one-fourth of the star region is wrong. I told you that it is a tri-bend pathway, and we should use McPherson hook method. But you end up treating it as a half-arc pathway, and you used a Taracha hook method. See? There is now a problem.”

”That is nonsense! McPherson hook is not proven, and the tri-bend pathway would disperse the magic energy. Only the combination of Taracha hook and half-arc pathway is the most stable……” Cain yelled as he got a little infuriated. Whenever it involved a technical problem, this pair of diligent research partners would argue with each other loudly.

”You……” Fei was shocked and angry at the same time.

Now, the King realized that the two mad scientists were using this life-saving operation as an experiment.

”So, their promises are worth nothing?” he thought.

However, the King was so nervous that he didn’t have time to scold the two not-so-reliable elders. He instantly dashed onto the top level of this altar, and he was so anxious that his fingers shook violently. He didn’t dare to open his eyes and look at the two girls beside him since he was afraid that he would see them pa.s.s away after the experiment failed.

”Eh….. Ah, this……”

A weak, familiar, and unforgettable voice suddenly sounded by Fei’s ear. Although it was quiet, it was like a rumble of thunder to Fei. At that moment, Fei suddenly felt like his shaking soul even calmed down.

It was Angela.

”She…… She is really awake?” Fei’s heart trembled.

One of the girls who was lying down on the ninth level of the altar suddenly opened her beautiful eyes. She looked a little confused as she didn’t know how she got to this place. However, the cautiousness in her eyes disappeared as she saw the person standing in front of her. She showed her bright and breathtaking smile at her loved one.

”Alexander…… Why am I here? Where am I? Enemies…… Are the enemies gone?” Angela quickly thought about what was happening when she fainted, and she instantly got anxious and wanted to get up.

”Don’t move,” Fei said as he quickly got close and held onto her soft body. With nervousness written all over his face, he asked, ”Is there anything wrong? Don’t worry, the enemies are all defeated, and I have captured them. You can do whatever you want to them. How are you feeling? Tell me……”

Fei was extremely anxious when he said that.

The altar only moved for less than 30 seconds before stopping; it was too fast. Fei was worried that this un-tested procedure might leave some sequelae.

”Eh…… Yeah, I’m feeling a little uncomfortable……” Angela thought about it and frowned; it looked like she wasn’t feeling well.

Like a pair of invisible hands, her frowny expression instantly held onto Fei’s heart.

However, a prankster-like smile instantly appeared on her face next. She laughed and said, ”Haha, look at you! I’m just a little hungry.”

Chapter 521: Return (Part Two)

”You……” Fei instantly realized that he was tricked by Angela who was usually very quiet and peaceful. However, since she completely recovered, Fei felt like the huge pressure, which felt like a huge mountain, was moved from his back, and he felt unprecedentedly relaxed. His mood got a lot better, and he pretended to be mad, ”You aren’t allowed to scare me like that! I was terrified!”

”Eh.” Angela nodded and blinked her big eyes. As a sweet smile appeared on her face, she murmured to Fei, ”I felt very happy and blessed when I saw your worried expression. Alexander, I was so scared. You know? When you were covered in blood in front of Dual-Flags City, I wasn’t able to help. I’m so useless…… Alexander, can we go back to Chambord and not stay here?”

Fei smiled back and felt very touched. He kissed Angela’s white forehead and replied, ”Yeah. Once your body completely recovers, we can go back to Chambord.”

At this moment, a quiet voice sounded.

Fei suddenly realized that another beautiful girl was lying beside him. He turned and saw that the Valkyrie finally gained back some consciousness. She frowned, grabbed onto the white sheet under her, and murmured anxiously, ”Alexander, leave! We couldn’t defeat him! Quick! Alexander! I will slow him down! You go……”

Fei felt like his heart was struck by lightning; the softest and deepest part of his heart got touched.

A drop of tear slid down his face.

As soon as she gained a little bit of consciousness, the first thing that she thought about was Fei’s safety. Like Angela, her memory stopped at the moment when [Snow Mountain Hermit], who was more than a kilometer away, struck toward Fei and her, who were in front of Dual-Flags City.

She was still worried about Fei’s safety.

”Sister Elena…… Could it be that she……” A strange expression appeared on Angela’s face as if she thought of something.

At this moment, a sky-blue light suddenly appeared on the altar and enveloped Elena who was in the process of waking up. Before Fei could do anything, Elena who hadn’t completely woken up yet disappeared.

”What is going on?” both Fei and Angela were shocked.

”Hahaha! Great! This is great! My plan is better, right? Haha! Taracha hook is the best option, and the half-arc pathway is how it should be! Priestess, you saw it with your own eyes, right? Do you still want to deny the fact? Ahahaha, look, both girls are healed. You lost, and I won! Hahaha!” Cain’s proud laughter sounded.

Cain and Akara quickly went up the altar. It was clear that Akara didn’t want to admit defeat, but she didn’t know where to begin.

Fei interrupted their arguments loudly by asking, ”Great? They both recovered? Why did Elena…… What was that blue light?”

”Haha, Supreme Leader, don’t worry. Think back and feel that light again. Isn’t it quite familiar?” Cain laughed and asked.

Fei recalled and nodded. ”Eh, you are right. It is very familiar…… It is the sensation of a portal. But……”

Akara cut Fei off and explained before Cain could, ”That is right! Elena is pulled back to [Rogue Encampment] by the natural laws in Diablo World. You know that every person from Diablo World could only stay in this world for a certain period of time. After the time is up, they would have to return to Diablo World. After Elena lost her consciousness, her soul was damaged and became incomplete, so the natural laws of Diablo World couldn’t locate her and couldn’t pull her back. Since she recovered, and her soul is healed, the natural laws of Diablo World sensed her and pulled her back. She had stayed in this world for too long.”

”Yeah, that is what happened. Fei, relax! What happened proved that she is completely healed. There won’t be any issues,” Cain added. Since Akara robbed the opportunity of explaining things to Fei, he could only make some minimal contribution.

”I see!” Fei calmed down as he understood the situation.

When Elena fainted, Fei was curious as to why she didn’t return to Diablo World after the time limit was up. However, since the King was busy looking for the Mythical Altar to purify the [Worldstone], he didn’t have time to pursue this issue further. Now, he heard the explanations from these two mad scientists, and it made sense.

”You have to safeguard this [Worldstone]. It is the most precious item in this world. Even the G.o.ds would fight over it!” Cain carefully pulled the blue crystal out of the dent in the ninth level of the altar, and he pa.s.sed it to Fei after appreciating it for a while. He reminded Fei, ”Although a lot of its energy is consumed, it could still support a Small World and even power a G.o.d-tier Combat Weapon forever!”
