Chapter 1018: Clearing the Obstacles
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“Shadow Fort.”
Without warning, the Shadow King unleashed his Supreme Talent. He did not even join forces with the other two. Instead, he transformed into a shadow and immediately tried to escape. All that talk about being able to defeat Merlin as long as the three of them combined their strengths was naught but a joke. At the moment of truth, the Shadow King fled faster than anyone else.
“Shadow King!”
The Liberator and the Phantom King’s faces contorted horribly. They were furious. They did not expect that the Shadow King had no intention of joining forces with them. Instead, he was the first to escape.
“Hmph, trying to escape?”
Merlin immediately sensed the Shadow King. With his current strength, even Doomsday’s Soul of Light could no longer trap him, what more the Shadow King?
Merlin stomped a foot forward. He did not even have to wield his almighty beast form.
“Boom.”
The entire city seemed to quake. With a single step, Merlin shook the Shadow King out of the shadows. At the same time, the humiliated Shadow King reappeared with a stunned expression.
His shadow avatar was unable to escape Merlin’s detection, so naturally, he could not escape. Stunned, the Shadow King no longer preserved his dignity. He yelled at the Liberator and the Phantom King, “Two of you, Leon has grown more powerful. The matter between us can be deferred until Leon is taken care of. Otherwise, none of us will be able to leave today.”
The Shadow King knew that he was grasping at straws but currently, all of them faced a common threat. Other than a temporary pact, none of them would be able to escape.
“Hmph.”
The Liberator seemed very disgruntled. He stretched out a hand and Merlin felt as though the entire world was filled with a gigantic hand that continued to grow. It was as if his entire person would be snatched up by this hand.
“Illusion? Mind Power?”
A snigger appeared between Merlin’s lips. The Liberator possessed Hallucinating spell power. Moreover, it was even more realistic than Doomsday’s Soul of Light.
“Roar…”
Merlin instantly shapeshifted into a ferocious almighty beast. His behemoth body was filled with oppressiveness as he smashed against his opponent. A look of horror appeared on the Liberator’s face. Merlin was completely unaffected by his power.
“How is this possible?”
The Liberator seemed to be witnessing the most unfathomable scene in the world but there was no use. Merlin’s huge body and oppressive aura had crushed him mercilessly.
“Bang.”
A loud noise echoed. The Liberator’s body turned into a bloody mist that wafted into the air. The entire castle was reduced to ruins and a thick stench of blood filled the air.
The Liberator was dead in a single blow!
The Phantom King and the Shadow King exchanged a look. In this situation, the Phantom King’s advantage could not be unleashed at all, so he was only equivalent to an ordinary ultimate contender. However, such ultimate contenders were helpless before Merlin as Merlin would eventually kill them all.
At this point, the Shadow King was at least self-aware. He knew that this person before him had far exceeded the realm of ordinary ultimate contenders and had achieved an unimaginable level. They were completely defenseless against Merlin. Hence, the Shadow King shouted at Merlin, “Leon, we’re willing to submit to the royal family!”
The Phantom King nodded. “We’re willing to submit!”
“Submit?”
Merlin paused momentarily. Unexpectedly, at the brink of life-and-death, they would still sense fear. Although they were ultimate contenders, upon realizing that they were defenseless, why would they continue to fight? Would that not be a dead end?
Therefore, they were now begging for mercy and were willing to submit. This seemed to be the best possible outcome. Nevertheless, Merlin merely hesitated for a split second. After all, these were ultimate contenders. Currently, they would submit due to pressure but once Merlin left or was away, the royal family would not be able to suppress these two ultimate contenders.
Hence, Merlin would not leave the royal family with any trouble.
“Too late!”
Merlin sneered. He stretched out his hands and like two big mountains, pressed against the Phantom King and the Shadow King. No matter how much they struggled, it was useless. They could only howl in rage as they watched Merlin’s palms press down on them.
“Boom”.
The force had killed the Shadow King and the Phantom King. They were turned into a bloody mist that hung in the air. Both their auras had vanished completely.
By this time, many people had been watching the battle from afar. Most of them consisted of rebel armies. They saw that their once-invincible leaders were easily vanquished by Merlin. Fear arose in their hearts. They were afraid that Merlin would also attack them.
If Merlin wanted to, he could easily destroy the entire city. However, this was unnecessary that the three rebel army leaders were dead. These rebel army forces were inconsequential. It was simply a matter of time before peace was restored in the Holy Dragon Empire.
“Done!”
Merlin knew that the Holy Dragon Empire’s army outside would immediately know that the battle had ended. His promise to Lisa had been fulfilled. It was time for him to return to Holy Dragon City and bid his farewells.
“Swish.”
Merlin’s huge almighty beast body gradually receded into his original form. Then, in the blink of an eye, he flew into the air and vanished without a trace. As for the military’s subsequent moves, they were none of Merlin’s concern.
…
Soon, Merlin returned to the palace and reported to Lisa. When she heard that the Shadow King, the Phantom King, and the other rebel army leaders were dead, her brows finally relaxed. The preceding worries disappeared altogether.
“Haha, Leon, I knew that you’d help me out. Now that the three rebel army leaders are dead, there’s no power in the Holy Dragon Empire that can stop me now.”
Lisa was very excited. She knew what this signified. The chaos in the Holy Dragon Empire would finally be over. As the first Queen of the Holy Dragon Empire, she had achieved a feat that her father did not manage to achieve. She had reunified the Holy Dragon Empire and ended the chaotic situation.
With this accomplishment, Lisa would earn great respect in the Holy Dragon Empire. So, when she implemented her policies in the future, there would not be too much resistance. For example, she would not appoint new aristocratic rulers. Perhaps, there would be some challenges but with her highly-respected status, Lisa would be able to do it.
She had accomplished all these with Merlin’s help. Previously, Lisa did not hold back and gave Merlin every “treasure” because she hoped that Merlin would be able to be like Farron and support her. Now, it seemed like Merlin had far surpassed Farron. He had almost single handedly helped Lisa become Queen and cleared all the obstacles in her way.
“Lisa, there should be no force in the Holy Dragon Empire that can cause you any trouble anymore. Therefore, I’m leaving!”
Merlin looked at Lisa and said calmly.
Lisa’s excitement gradually recovered. She took a deep breath and gazed at Merlin contemplatively. She knew that once Merlin left, he might not return to the Holy Dragon Empire for a very long time as he would be pursuing his dream.
“Leon, what will happen to your wives when you leave?”
Merlin’s two wives had not borne any sons. This was also Merlin’s source of headache and helplessness.
“Maybe I won’t have any sons. I trust that Lisa, you’ll help take care of my clan and my castle.”
Merlin said with a smile. Under Queen Lisa’s guardianship, at least in Holy Dragon City, Merlin’s clan would not be affected. The only two people he owed were his two wives.
After a long pause, Lisa sighed and said, “Go home and spend a few more days with them…”
