A beautiful library stood alone in the middle of a dark, barren land.
Inside the library, a tiny demon suddenly looked up at the boundless void.
"He can see through space and time with his mind. How terrifying!" The demon's voice was trembling. "I was right not to leave a mark on him."
The tiny demon was none other than the Scholar of Cruelty.
The Scholar of Cruelty already sensed it when his statue was drenched in Angor's blood. He thought Angor was going to use the statue, so he placed his mind on it first.
Later, he even tried to lure Bobota into persuading Angor to use the statue.
However, Angor still didn't do anything to the statue, let alone activate it.
While the Scholar of Cruelty lamented, Angor and Lord Flameless' clone clashed.
Next, the Scholar of Cruelty sensed the terrifying gaze coming at him. Even though Angor was still far away, the powerful mind already reached him.
Even the Lord of the Flameless didn't notice that he had attached his thoughts to the Descending Object. As a result, the Lord of the Flameless looked over.
The gaze of the Scholar of Cruelty forced his mind back from the statue.
It felt like he was forced out of his own home by an outsider. And He did not dare to have any objections. Even now … when He wanted to cast his gaze towards that world, He was covered by a barrier that seemed to be there and not there.
"Such energy … What a miracle," the Scholar of Cruelty muttered. The Scholar of Cruelty muttered to himself. His face was filled with fear. Fortunately, he did not pressure the human forcefully.
The Scholar of Cruelty stared at the blurry world behind the barrier, waiting for the moment when the veil would be lifted.
He wanted to know what would happen to Lord Flameless' clone in the end.
It would affect how the Scholar of Cruelty would reevaluate Angor's value in the future.
The Scholar of Cruelty stared at the world covered by the barrier while wagging his tail, trying to find information about that world from the stacks of books.
It was a world that even the Scholar of Cruelty couldn't tell where it was.
He felt something was off.
…
Lord Flameless felt as if he was dragged into an endless space filled with chaos and darkness.
They were surrounded by the primal chaos void.
The only thing he could feel was the pair of eyes with endless cruelty and coldness in the distant space and time.
That pair of eyes stared straight at the Lord of the Flameless. They were so calm that not a single ripple could be seen. However, the coldness in those eyes made him break out in a cold sweat.
Just being stared at made Lord Flameless feel an intense pressure on his mind.
"What's going on? Could it be caused by that human? " The Lord of Flameless did not believe that a human who had not even reached the level of a wizard could cause such great pressure to him.
Could it be some kind of mysterious object?
The only thing the Lord of the Flameless could think of was that this human was using the mysterious item to pressure him.
If that was the case, then the only way was to kill that human first!
Thinking of this, he endured the terrifying oppression brought about by the gaze and gently flicked the flameless fire at the tip of his finger.
He felt like he was in the primal chaos void, but he guessed that this was a special illusion. He recalled the flameless fire at the tip of his finger and flicked it without hesitation.
For some reason, the Lord of the Flameless heard a sneer in his ears.
Before he could figure it out, he saw one of the eyes in the darkness. It seemed to have turned into a star that illuminated countless worlds.
A figure jumped out from the star and traveled through the endless space and time to arrive in front of the Lord of the Flameless in an instant.
The Lord of the Flameless did not see the face of the figure clearly. He only felt a long strand of golden hair brushing past him, and then a bright white light exploded in front of his eyes.
After the white light disappeared, the primal chaos void slowly receded like the curtain of a stage play.
The Lord of the Flameless was surprised at first, but he quickly relaxed his tense mind. In his mind, the flameless fire he flicked out earlier must have done something.
However, when he raised his head to look at the opposite side, his eyes suddenly froze.
The flameless fire did not corrode the human as he expected. Instead, it just hovered in front of the human.
It did not really hover. The Lord of the Flameless saw a large amount of strange green patterns appear on the human's back. These green patterns were like vines that blocked his flameless fire.
"These green patterns are the power of the mysterious object?" The Lord of the Flameless thought to himself. "But I don't feel the aura of the mysterious object. Or could it be that this human is actually the owner of the mysterious object?"
When the Lord of the Flameless went to the Face of Gluttony, he encountered a muddy demon that had been killed by the nameless fog. This muddy demon's spine was the mysterious object.
The birth of mysterious objects sometimes did not follow the laws of nature. Even the body of a living being could become a breeding ground for mysterious objects.
Just as the Lord of the Flameless was guessing, the green patterns that blocked the flameless fire suddenly shattered.
… …
Gregory thought that the shop owner was going to use a subdued object. Otherwise, why would he dare to release his battle intent towards the Lord of the Flameless? But what he did not expect was that the shop owner had no intention of using a subdued object. Instead, a strange green pattern appeared on his back and blocked the flames released by the Lord of the Flameless.
From Gregory's perspective, the flameless fire was a casual attack by the Lord of the Flameless. But he did not know that the Lord of the Flameless' consciousness had been dragged into the Void World by the gaze from outer space. The flameless fire was released by the Lord of the Flameless as he had no choice.
When the green pattern shattered, Gregory thought to himself, "It's over!"
But the Lord of the Flameless on the other side frowned. Because the moment the green pattern shattered, he suddenly could not sense the flameless fire?
"Shop owner, be careful!" Gregory shouted.
Just as his voice fell, Gregory felt its vision blur … It seemed to have vaguely seen a shadow descending from the broken green pattern?
Gregory shook his head and looked over again. He did not see any light. But the shop owner did not move at all.
"Could it be that the flames have already corroded the shop owner's body?"
Just as Gregory's face was filled with worry, Lord Flameless suddenly took the initiative to attack!
Gregory thought that the light was an illusion. But he did not know that the Lord of the Flameless clearly saw the light falling into the human's body.
The Lord of the Flameless did not know what the light was, but he saw a strand of long golden hair.
As the light fell, the flameless fire died without a trace.
Angor stood still and lowered his head without saying anything. He did not seem to be in a bad situation. But the Lord of the Flameless' heart began to race. This was probably the first time he felt something like this in thousands of years.
The Lord of the Flameless had not felt this for a long time. But now, it suddenly appeared.
And it was against a human who was as weak as an ant!
This made him a little angry. Under the influence of certain emotions, the Lord of the Flameless attacked first. At this time, he did not realize that the long-lost emotion that controlled his behavior was called uneasiness.
Or, it was the instinctive fear of a living creature's natural enemy.
Gregory saw the Lord of the Flameless attacking the shop owner and jumped in fright. At the same time, a sour feeling spread from his heart to his nose. In his mind, the shop owner would not be able to escape this time.
However, Gregory did not think about it. With the status of the Lord of Flameless, why would he take the initiative to attack a human who was so much weaker than him?
The Lord of the Flameless used three moves at the same time: pressure, energy, and physical strength.
Using the terrifying pressure to intimidate, using the Flameless Fire to burn, and finally, using his powerful physical strength to make the final judgment.
The Lord of the Flameless did not realize that he would use such a serious attack against a human who he usually did not take seriously.
Moreover, the attacked human was still in a completely defenseless state.
However, the attack that the Lord of the Flameless thought would be a sure success was a little off.
The pressure did not cause any discomfort to the human. The Lord of the Flameless wondered if there was something wrong with him. But when he saw the young flame demon behind the human, he was sure that the pressure was fine.
The young flame demon's face was already turning red due to the pressure. His forehead was covered in sweat, and his veins and blood vessels were bulging.
Then why was the human not affected?
The pressure did not have much effect. The second attack, the Flameless Fire, reached the human first. However, when the fire touched him, the Lord of the Flameless' expression changed.
Once again, he could not feel the existence of the flameless fire!
The first time could be a coincidence. But if it happened again, it meant that the human knew how to deal with the Flameless Fire!
The Lord of the Flameless was alarmed.
But since he had already attacked, there was no reason for him to back off.
However, the Lord of the Flameless became even more cautious.
When he reached Angor's side with his strong body, Angor, who had been silent all this time, finally looked up.
The moment Angor looked up, the Lord of the Flameless felt an unprecedented fear.
The human in front of him … No, the Lord of the Flameless could no longer sense the human's aura.
The human's face seemed to have changed as well. It was covered by a layer of shadow that prevented him from seeing anything. The only thing that gave the Lord of the Flameless a sense of familiarity was the bright golden hair.
Previously, his golden hair was only a short layer.
But now, behind the short layer of hair, there was a faint shadow with long hair.
The Lord of the Flameless forced himself to calm down. He reached out his hand like a blade and tried to slice the human's head in half!
However, at this moment, a ray of light suddenly lit up on the face that was originally covered by the shadows.
It was a pair of bright but cold eyes!
