Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2901: 589: The Shadow World Rekindled! Nightmare Suffering a Crushing Defeat!

As the fusion with Nora’s Dark Side took hold, the wizard form started to swell and shift in plain sight, stretching to twenty thousand miles, then thirty thousand miles... all the way to one hundred thousand miles.

"Devouring Sky Demon Lord, go kill that man!"

The Lost Monarch blurted out in haste.

The Devouring Sky Demon Lord picked up on the danger too, as tentacles lined with countless mouths burst from the emptiness, only to get halted by the Ice Wall short of reaching Vicna.

Atop the barrier, Gullwig gripped his sword, appearing otherworldly like a fairy stepping down from the heavens, while the silhouette of the Frost Giant Ancestor loomed behind him, fist balled and radiating a crushing presence.

In the meantime, the shadow trailing Vicna had undergone a stunning change.

Clad in dark, hefty armor and wrapped in a cloak of ash, it brandished a shining silver greatsword, rising to an immense two hundred thousand miles tall, its blade etched with flowing rivers and peaks that mirrored the landscape of the Dark Side.

Vicna now looked like a being caught between mortal and divine, whispering gently:

"Thank you, friend. In that case, my new wizard form shall be called... Unyielding Shadow Owens. I said you wouldn’t disappear."

The knight in silver armor at his back seized the greatsword, striking a pose ready to strike.

Even though it was unmistakably a wizard form, it appeared to whisper softly too.

"Unyielding Shadow Owens!"

With Owens’ greatsword slashing down, a power surpassing early stage level 10 blasted toward the Nightmare Creatures’ front lines, and beyond that, Nora’s Dark Side twisted in sync, releasing the catastrophic forces scattered over the globe to mercilessly tear through the Nightmare Creature forces.

Clashing hard against Edmund, the Lost Monarch grasped that it had been fooled.

"All Monarchs, pull your forces back, abandon Nora’s Dark Side!"

The whole realm had been forged by that cursed Legendary Wizard!

How was this even feasible?

Prior to the Nightmare World’s assault on this place, every bit of life had been wiped out, leaving behind a barren, hushed wasteland devoid of any vital energy.

In theory, refining such a spot should have been impossible.

That’s why the Monarchs had boldly combined here, free of concern.

They remained unaware that the Ashen World was fated for ruin, and amid the utter stillness, a fresh will had awakened. It lingered in this realm of hopelessness, desperately yearning for a spark of vitality, and driven by that relentless drive, this will took shape as Owens.

They had no clue that, under the direction of another, Owens had endured in isolation for eons in Windmill Village, enduring the cycles of time until the arrival of the swordsman in black armor.

Right then, the gears of fate started to spin.

Levi, Inferno Dragon Breathing Technique, Windmill Village, Unyielding Silver Seat Owens... ancient tower, Ash Dragon, Shadow World, Undying Shadow Vicna, Sauron, Nora’s Dark Side... once every piece connected perfectly,

it all aligned seamlessly!

The lone Vicna discovered salvation through Levi within the Shadow World.

The lone Owens discovered salvation through Levi within the Ashen World.

Two isolated wills completed one another.

And so emerged the present Nora Dark Side Sovereign!

Within Vicna’s Demiplane, he reigned as the unchallenged True God!

That’s why the Lost Monarch felt sheer alarm, not fearing defeat against Vicna—its own power level meant it could overpower the foe with some push. What terrified it was the vast army of billions of Nightmare Creatures it had painstakingly gathered!

They stood no chance against the plane-empowered world map disasters unleashed by Vicna!

Masses of Nightmare Creatures liquefied and broke apart like melting ice, snuffed out, leaving behind strewn Nightmare Crystals over the ground. The Nightmare Monarchs, shielded by the Four Great Demon Lords, withdrew alongside key lords—there was simply no path to victory in this fight!

The Arrogance Demon Lord, forced to fall back under the Heavenly Will’s onslaught, had its boast of eradicating Nora within a year now ringing hollow and ridiculous.

Edmund found himself ringed by compass-like Wizard Tools, his wizard form fully unleashed, holding off the Lost Monarch, Cross Death Monarch, and Black Heart Demon Lord—all three elite powerhouses by himself.

During this clash, he held back his million-mile True Sun form, making it clear that while devastating, such a technique couldn’t be used often.

Still, even against three foes solo, he managed to hold his ground without faltering.

The Void Demon Lord faced off against the Lady of Thunder and Wind Empress, yet persisted in taunting the women amid the chaos, revealing its immense prowess. The two women, however, were no easy marks, their tempest abilities merging to give the demon lord plenty of trouble.

Leveraging the terrain edges shaped by the Dark Side Sovereign, Nora’s elite fighters clearly dominated, though pinning down those Monarchs seemed a tall order.

That said, the Nora Council’s all-out campaign this round wasn’t merely about thinning out fodder troops—their goal was to exploit the moment and capture one or two level 10 Monarchs!

Far overhead, Nora’s backup forces pressed onward.

It consisted of a massive Eight Formation Map battle unit made up of 16 level 9 powerhouses, split into ten squads; with Nora boasting more than three hundred twenty level 9 experts in total, they’d committed half their strength here!

Serpent winds and crane flights, tiger bounds and dragon climbs!

Clouds yield and gales surge, lands flip and skies warp!

Each of these ten battle squads carried the might to rival early stage level 10 foes.

In this instant, plunging into the fight, they served as the vital artifact to shatter the stalemate!

The Rotten Sovereign got hemmed in, its expression twisted in terror.

The Unyielding Shadow’s wizard form barreled toward it, set to team up with the battle unit and wipe it out on the spot!

Its once-invincible assaults got thwarted by the super Eight Formation Map, as Owens swung the greatsword to carve through hordes of foes, toppling endless summoned undead, and stabbing deep into the Rotten Sovereign’s form.

"Damn it! Help me!"

As a level 10 mid-stage powerhouse, it surprisingly cowered in fear.

But the other Sovereigns were tied up elsewhere, unable to lend aid.

In another spot, the Silent Monarch faced encirclement as well.

Being just an early stage level 10, it got boxed in by multiple Eight Formation Map battle squads.
