Carlos seemed to have figured something out. He suddenly deflated, staring blankly at the ceiling as countless thoughts ran through his mind.

Since people from ten thousand years later could travel to this era, then when he had suddenly entered that castle back then, perhaps it really had been the world ten thousand years in the future. He had carefully searched that place afterward, yet there had been nothing there at all.

"Um, are they in danger?"

"Possibly. There was a Great Rhino before. The moment it saw me, it called me Carlos's remnant and wanted to kill me. If it senses your bloodline, it will probably come looking for trouble too."

"You shouldn't have come here! You shouldn't have told me any of this either!" Carlos's hollow gaze turned toward Mel. At that moment, he seemed to have made some decision that sold his soul.

His life had not yet completely faded away, but that unquestionable king seemed to have already died.

For his daughter, he had made certain deals with the gods. At this moment, that daughter he had never met should become the final proof that he had once existed in this world.

"What is it...?"

Mel was startled by Carlos's sudden outburst. Why was he suddenly so angry? He was always jumping at shadows. Why shouldn't Mel have appeared here? It was not like Mel had wanted to come.

Could it be that Carlos was planning to change history? But he was already about to die. What could a dying man possibly do? It was not as though he was going to wipe out the Elf race. If he had that ability, he would have acted long ago.

"Is there anything you need help with? I may truly not have much longer to live," Carlos said.
