The Frost Wolf pup grabbed the black iron crown with its mouth and ran for its life before the soul mirage could reach it.
Roar!
A furious roar came from the soul as the soul mirage chased after it relentlessly.
However, Kieran didn't just have the Frost Wolf pup.
He also had the Fire Raven!
The moment the giant hand appeared, both the Frost Wolf pup and the Fire Raven fell into a weakened state but after [Lionheart], [King's Trait] and [Lion's Courage], both of them were brimming with energy and vigor like Kieran.
Although it was only 10 seconds.
But it was enough!
Fuuuu!
Fuuuu!
Three fireballs fell from the sky in a row, smashing into the Soul Shadow.
The fire's suppression forced the soul mirage to back off. Although it didn't disperse, it lost the chance to chase after the Frost Wolf pup.
The Frost Wolf pup wagged its tail and placed the black iron crown in Kieran's hand. It then bared its fangs and growled at Broker who was on the ground.
Fire Raven fluttered its wings and landed on Kieran's shoulder. After a curious glance at the black iron crown, it also stared at Broker with a fierce eagle gaze.
Broker glanced over the Frost Wolf pup and Fire Raven with a dull expression. His face couldn't help but show a bitter smile.
"I've lost this time but I think we can …"
Puk!
Kieran stomped on the head of the Frost Wolf pup.
Kieran didn't even have the time or thoughts to listen to Broker's words.
Or in other words, no matter what Broker said, Kieran wouldn't believe him.
The head was like a smashed watermelon by a baseball bat, it exploded just like that.
The soul mirage further away vanished along with it.
After that, Kieran didn't stop.
One after another, [Seal of Dawn] appeared around Kieran.
When the light of Dawn Force shone brightly, only then did Kieran heave a breath of relief. He then laid limp at the bottom of the pit.
Lines of words related to [Fenrir Crown] appeared before his eyes.
[Name: Fenrir Crown]
[Type: Accessory]
[Rank:???]
[Attack:???]
[Defense:???]
[Attribute: 1,??? ; 2,???]
Special Effect: None
[Prerequisite: Possessor of opposing forces]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remark: This is Fenrir's most beloved crown. It represents not only the authority of Fenrir, but also the symbol and honor of Fenrir.]
…
Many question marks represented many unknowns.
However, Kieran wasn't in the mood to explore this at all.
Previously, the damage caused by his bloodline going berserk had caused Kieran to be exhausted without continuous thinking day and night.
Right now, Kieran just wanted to lie down and have a good rest.
However, Kieran, who had just collapsed at the bottom of the pit, immediately stood up and rushed into the distance.
The battle between the giant palm and Afu in the sky continued.
Or, it was still going on.
Moreover, Afu was obviously at a disadvantage.
It wasn't that Afu wasn't powerful enough, but its master was too weak.
On top of that, because of its weakness, the master that controlled Afu would be hurt because of Afu's injuries.
Or even …
Death!
Once the thought came into his mind, Kieran hastened his steps.
[Lion's Courage] only had less than 5 seconds left!
Afu's giant doggy mouth was biting the giant palm, but the black energy that leaked out from the giant palm was surrounding Afu instead.
Anyone could see that Afu's defeat was just a matter of time.
Once Afu was defeated, what would happen to the whole of Dawn City?
Destruction would be the only outcome, wouldn't it?
Everyone looked up at the scene in the sky, hoping that they could do something to change the situation.
But their bodies were restrained.
Their life force was extracted.
They couldn't even move a muscle, so what else could they do?
All they could do was wait for death!
It wasn't a good feeling at all.
If there was even the slightest chance, they wouldn't give up.
But they couldn't see any hope.
All they could see was the giant palm descending from the sky, destroying the whole of Dawn City.
Despair was spreading everywhere.
At that very moment …
Wu, wu wu!
An impassioned horn sounded throughout Dawn City all of a sudden.
Everyone's gaze was subconsciously attracted to it.
They saw the figure on the tower blowing the trumpet.
They saw the horn glowing red in the darkness.
They could even hear the figure's loud and impassioned shouts.
"I'm back!"
"With our glory!"
"I'm back!"
"With the glory that belongs to us!"
"I'm back!"
"Golden City is being rebuilt!"
"I'm back!"
"The Supreme Road has been patrolled!"
"I'm back!"
"Are you willing to fight alongside me?"
"Your bodies are already extremely weak."
"You can't pick up a sword."
"You can't wear armor."
"But your will is still there!"
"Your will decides where you belong —"
"Are you willing to destroy the enemies before you?"
"Are you willing to see the sky burning?"
"Are you willing to join Burning Dawn?"
…
Kieran shouted with all his might like a clap of thunder, echoing in the sky above Dawn City.
[Lion's Courage]'s effect was about to end, Kieran once again felt the signs of his bloodline going berserk. However, he stood straighter than before.
It was like a javelin being stabbed on the tower.
No!
Not a javelin!
It should be … a flag!
Under the violent airflow, the feathered mantle was blown up, fluttering loudly.
Black was considered an ominous color.
However, when such a black color was reflected in the darkness, it had an unusual meaning.
Everyone stared blankly at the scene.
They looked at Kieran who was moving freely.
They looked at Kieran who was standing on top of the tower.
They looked at Kieran who was bound and had his life force sucked away, completely different from them.
They felt like they saw hope.
The people who were in despair saw hope.
They didn't know if it was a hallucination before they died.
Or an unresigned fantasy.
But none of them could stop them from making their decision.
"I'm willing!"
"I'm willing!"
"I'm willing!"
…
From scattered voices to chaotic voices rising one after another, it only took a moment for them to shout in unison.
"I'm willing!"
There were civilians, soldiers, nobles, and royals among them.
But at that moment, all of them were the same.
Every single one of them was shouting loudly with a flushed face and a thick neck.
What they shouted was the deepest wish in their hearts.
They wanted to live!
More than a hundred thousand of them shouted in unison.
Their unwillingness.
Their rage.
Their desire.
Their willpower.
All of them gathered together following the loud shout.
The sky and land started to tremble.
Roar!
Amidst the lion's roar that could make all things submit, it gathered into a willpower that buffed Kieran's body.
[Detected compatible energy, Lionheart, King's Trait has temporarily upgraded!]
[King's Step activated]
[King's Praise activated]
[King's Prestige activated]
[Insufficient energy, King's Wrath not activated]
[Insufficient energy, King's Slaughter not activated]
…
Gold!
Pure gold was flowing and blooming on Kieran's body.
The warm and bright radiance was like a rising sun, expelling the darkness in the world.
