Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2965: 603: Swallowing a Dragon Ball! The One and Only Crimson Emperor Dragon in the World!
Previously on Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method...
Trading strike for strike, we could still wear Nora down until it perishes.
Should the Nightmare forfeit fifty Monarchs, it amounts to merely a hindrance for this epoch alone; by the following epoch, recovery is possible. What resources does Nora possess to match that?”
The Lingxi Saint King declared:
“We should coordinate with the Astral World too, seeking an ideal moment to attack soon after, vanquish the Nightmare, and wipe out Nora to avoid any future threats!”
The Heavenly Wisdom Saint King stated:
“This event has rung a warning bell for us all; during the upcoming epoch, be it wizards or various other Spell Caster civilizations, we need to proactively suppress them right from their beginnings.
Our Holy Clan refuses to serve as mere pawns for others!”
...
Shadow Battlefield.
Nightmare Army Headquarters.
The Lost Monarch maintained a composed demeanor, as the Devouring Sky Demon Lord fiddled with the supreme treasure [Fire Overture] at his side; this was a sickle-like blade, shining with a chilling light, enveloped in crimson fire.
The Arrogance Demon Lord remarked:
“At this rate, conquering the Shadow World might not require a full century.”
The Lost Monarch responded:
“After wrapping up operations here, we’ll reinforce the Nora front; they’ve forged a supreme treasure aimed directly at us, posing a certain challenge.”
The Devouring Sky Demon Lord commented: “No excessive concern is needed on that front; with the Ignorant Monarch leading personally, capturing Nora remains only a question of when.”
From a shadowy corner, the Ghost Alley Monarch whispered softly:
“Remember the Dusk Palace Master—he remains alive. I propose the Ignorant Monarch unleashes a fierce assault on Nora, disregarding all distractions; eliminating the Dusk Palace Master ensures our victory.”
The Arrogance Demon Lord scoffed.
“Ghost Alley, fear has truly paralyzed you. Among us Seven Demon Lords, six have mobilized, and from the Four Great Demon Emperors, two join the fray.
Even the Nightmare Brain’s strategist has entered the conflict.
Could the Dusk Palace Master truly defy the cosmos?
Sufficient with the paranoia; let’s hasten to subjugate the Shadows, then head to Nora to annihilate that Dusk Palace Master.”
...
Land of Darkness.
Nora Battlefield, Nightmare Army Headquarters.
With a blank expression, the Ignorant Monarch stared at the enormous pile of shattered soul tokens in front of him, totaling about one hundred thousand, each destroyed at the same instant, all thanks to that supreme treasure.
Sky Ugly Monarch and his companions appeared stunned.
“Such a formidable treasure—could this be the might of knowledge?”
The Void Demon Lord proposed:
“Currently, it appears this supreme treasure can manage up to one hundred thousand Nightmare Creatures at once; we ought to send additional fodder troops to shield our advance.
When its capacity is overwhelmed, our Overlords and Monarchs press the attack.
I’ll confront the Frost Witch myself, and the rest are irrelevant to me.
Regarding Edmund, we’ll leave that to the Ignorant Monarch.”
The Ignorant Monarch agreed:
“Very well, we’ll bide our time a little more; the Shadow Battlefield exerts pressure on Nora, aiming to lure away Edmund or the Heavenly Will.
Lacking those two Level 10 Peaks, our plans become utterly secure.”
The Void Demon Lord chuckled:
“The strategist’s foresight is impeccable as always; we’ll hold off a touch longer.”
...
Around Nora.
Within the Land of Darkness, a colossal well materialized silently, unleashing dreadful entities from its depths; at their forefront stood the succubus queen.
She observed Nora in the distance with deep contemplation.
Next to the Queen, the Lord of Immersion returned to familiar territory, exhaling with sentiment.
During the prior three brutal clashes, the Abyss had endured a devastating loss; fortunately, he endured, and now he vowed to proceed with utmost caution and wisdom.
The Lord of Immersion inquired:
“Your Majesty, what’s our next move?”
The succubus queen answered:
“Maintain your stance for the moment, keep our position concealed; I’ve embedded a spy within the Nightmare forces, who will initiate a massive assault shortly.
We’ll trail right after, seizing the rewards as the opportunistic angler!”
...
Astral World.
Storm Divine Domain, row upon row of orderly angels and Star Realm apostles stood in formation, unlike the chaotic Abyss and Nightmare hordes, resembling a disciplined military force.
The Lord of Storm was encircled by nine Subordinate Gods who flanked him.
“All of you, concentrate your resolve!”
“The Nightmare Monarchs have transgressed divine rights, claiming the Shadow World and Nora as their domains, plunging the mortal realm into devastation where flames and carnage rage unchecked!”
“In our roles as Gods, as Protectors of the Cosmos! As wielders of the thunder god’s power to judge all existence, we stand ever vigilant.
At the opportune instant, we’ll cripple the Nightmare and claim Nora for ourselves!”
...
Meanwhile.
Near Nora in the Land of Darkness.
An unremarkable meteorite floated by, concealing inside a massive silhouette, adorned with a crown, polishing a colossal sword.
This was the vanished Flame Demon Emperor Surgard!
Having now reached Level 10 Early Stage, he moved with unhurried ease.
“Turmoil approaches swiftly; this time, I doubt the Survivor of the Vast Sea can shield Nora’s Will any longer; should my [Sword of World Destruction] consume Nora,
I’ll not only reclaim my epoch’s pinnacle power but surpass it, shattering the Four Great Demon Lords’ curse that bars ascension to Level 11.”
...
As the Great Tribulation escalates, legendary figures emerge in unison.
Eerie beings lurk with greedy intent!
... .
Ancient Dragon Continent.
Gondor City.
Without notice, three centuries had elapsed since Gandalf attained the ninth-circle. Every advancement past Grand Wizard status opens uncharted paths in the Body Refining Technique.
“Given my present power level, persisting in Nora for grueling training yields poor returns; it’s wiser to explore diverse war zones, pursuing Overlords or demons to craft peculiarities!
I’ve already collected the four elemental Body Refining Artifacts of Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water; next comes forging the three key types of lightning, frost, and metal, pushing my progress onward.”
Refining Body Refining Artifacts demands far stricter conditions and limits than typical oddities. Gandalf prepared meticulously, aiming beyond mere legendary status.
His innermost ambition drives him to validate the ultimate supreme Path.
Not long afterward.
Holy Infant and Vic showed up, geared completely and primed for action.
Holy Infant had fully upgraded his Wizard Tools to ninth-circle standards, with his Grand Wizard base firmly established long ago, advancing toward Senior Nine Ring, and craving combat to sharpen his edge.
