Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World

Deep inside the Endless Forest, three men waited in silence. Hundreds of powerful Magic Creatures had their homes near their location, but none of them could perceive the trio.

If those Magic Creatures could detect them, they would flee with all their power instead of attacking them because their instincts would warn them about how dangerous each of them was.

One was a bald older man with a serene aura and calm expression. His body did not seem that impressive, but every one of his cells carried a monstrous amount of force.

The other two had the appearance of a small child less than ten years old and a burly man with demonic horns and wings.

Their powerful soul force put them at Rank 6, with the bald elder reaching the Early Hollow Sun Domain Stage.

Even though their location may seem random, they were just outside the imaginary line Zatiel Daybreak declared decades ago to be a restricted area for anyone above Rank 4.

They were thousands of kilometers away, but they could see without a problem the majestic Daybreak Magic Tower and the seven hundred and twenty-nine spheres of purple fire that filled the city's sky.

A solemn expression appeared in the trio when they saw the city's defenses.

"No matter how many times I see them, the City of the Sun's magical defenses never cease to amaze me. Each of those hundreds of spheres of flames could quickly kill a weak Rank 6 life form, and the one in the Magic Tower can endanger Primary Sun Domain Stage powerhouses. Also, I hear that they unleash radiation extremely helpful to temper the body and soul force." The boy spoke with his comrades, and there was a sense of awe in his eyes as he stared at the runic lines in the Daybreak Magic Tower.

Of course, he used his consciousness to relay the message to maintain their quietness.

"Of course they are amazing! Zatiel Daybreak can teach Runecrafting to John Erick Rebellion, who was supposed to be the best Runemaster inside the Magi World, not to mention that the Daybreak Clan wealth is astronomical. What truly calls my attention are the members of the clan. I feel an extremely pure Abyss Aura in each of them, but none shows the most minimal sign of being affected by the evil plane's chaotic will, despite their low Rank."

The duo by their sides showed great curiosity in their faces after hearing the man's words.

It was not uncommon for Path Techniques to transform your original energy pool, allowing it to contain a different form of energy other than Spiritual Force.

The demonic man's Path Technique allowed him to use Abyss Aura, but that change in his energy pool only came when he reached Rank 4, and his soul became powerful enough to fight the chaotic will inside the energy.

Children less than one-year-old with an energy pool filled with an Abyss Aura purer than demons, yet who show no sign of their personality being affected baffled them.

All of a sudden, the trio's eyes widened, and they slowly turned around and saw a five-meter tall man behind them.

He had white hair, a body filled with monstrous physical might, and cold eyes devoid of all color that seemed to pierce into their souls.

The trio immediately recognized him as the man who dared to kill a follower of the Frozen Beast Heart's leader in front of her, Invictus.

Two things shocked them. One was the fact this man could sneak up to them, and even now, their consciousness only perceived a stream of air instead of a person.

Strong life forms tend to rely less on their five senses and more on their consciousnesses to explore their surroundings, so Ezequiel's ability shocked them.

The other was the power they felt in this towering man. Less than twenty years ago, Ezequiel Invictus' battle power only reached Peak Rank 5, but now their instincts screamed that they must not fight against him.

Such a speed was unthinkable for the trio who spent more than one hundred years passing from Peak Rank 5 to the bottom of Rank 6.

Unfortunately, they did not have time to wonder about this man's incredible feats, as they felt a wisp of bloodlust coming from him. It was as if they were in front of a natural force ready to explode at any moment.

"Are you the people sent by King Roku?"

They are aware of Invictus' personality, and the fact they were spying on the Daybreak Clan could mean they were enemies of Zatiel Daybreak. Their backgrounds meant nothing to him, and he would attempt to kill them if they gave them a wrong answer.

"Yes, yes!" The bald man immediately nodded and raised his hand, unleashing a wisp of mighty soul force.

Ezequiel perceived the soul force, and he soon connected it with the man accompanying the Aeternum Empire's Emperor when he first met Ivar the Flawless.

The bald man having a wisp of his soul force meant that Roku had an immense level of trust in him, so Ezequiel was sure they did not lie about their identities.

When the trio saw Ezequiel's bloodlust diminish, they relaxed, and the bald man continued speaking.

"My name is Kriz, and these are my friends, Jury and Sebastian." Kriz presented the boy and the demonic man, and the duo performed a slight bow to Ezequiel.

The Supreme Neo-Demon returned the courtesy, but his eyes remained in Kriz.

The bald man understood what he wanted to know and explained their behavior.

"Our mission required secrecy, but we also had a deadline. That is why we remained in the Endless Forest, hidden from everybody, waiting for either you or Lord Daybreak to appear."

Ezequiel understood the logic behind the man and nodded, showing his acceptance. Had they not expressed their intention before, he would have captured them and read their soul to figure out their true motives.

"King Roku only sent the three of you, right?"

The trio was confused by Ezequiel's words, but they immediately nodded. Actually, only one of them would have been enough for this mission, but Rokus sent the three to display his respect and goodwill toward Zatiel Daybreak.

"I see, then who sent you, little rat?" Ezequiel's killing intent exploded as he spoke those words and focused on a tree a little less than one thousand meters away from them.

A leaf of that tree trembled and transformed into a humanoid current of air before flashing away with a fantastic speed.

Kriz, Jury, and Sebastian were shocked. They did their best to hide their meeting with the Daybreak Clan, but someone had been following them.

Although they wanted to chase after that person, the power they used was Wind Essence, and none of them could keep up with their speed.

Ezequiel sneered, and the power of both Lightning Essence and Space Essence manifested itself.

"Void Flaw Lightning Drive."

The fight against the Sky Breakers showed Ezequiel that one of his flaws was his movement speed.

He needed to be fast enough so groups could not surround him, and he developed this technique after spending more than eight years focusing solely on deciphering the Law of Space to the Minor Completion level.

The technique consisted of several skills used one after the other.  First, use Void Disruption to shrink the distance between the Supreme Neo-Demon and the enemy. Then while perceiving the Flawed Universe, used Void Slash to destroy most of the space dividing them.

Finally, the Supreme Neo-Demon would use Extreme Speed to travel the considerably shortened amount of space left between the two.

While the technique had several steps in it, the only thing the trio saw was Ezequiel taking a step in the direction of the air humanoid before appearing right above the spy.

Ezequiel threw a punch, forcing the person out of the spell.

"¡AHHH!"

The trio heard a woman scream along with the sound of broken bones, which they assumed was her spine shattering.

His opponent being a woman did not matter to Ezequiel. He grabbed the back of her head and sent a wave of white lightning that knocked her out.

The Supreme Neo-Demon appeared in front of the trio the next second and showed them the woman's face.

When they saw her, the trio was startled, and they immediately began to communicate with their consciousness.

It was clear for Ezequiel that this woman was not a simple spy, but the messy schemes of the Royal Court were not something that mattered to him.

Ezequiel's eyes began to shine. Entropy Primordial Lightning entered the woman's soul dimension and consumed her Wind Essence.

She began to shake, and blood leaked from her eyes and ears due to the soul damage she suffered.

There were no emotions in the Supreme Neo-Demon's eyes as he destroyed the Law Essence's seed to improve his own. After he finished with her, he threw her to the trio and made a portal.

"You can decide what to do with your spy. Follow me. I grant you temporal access to the City of the Sun."
