The New King

"No, Abad won't lose!" Patur stared intently at the battle in the air.

He didn't care about the throne of the Oga Kingdom, but he didn't want his things to be taken away by others, especially by Andres.

In his view, the throne of the Oga Kingdom rightfully belonged to him.

From Gallo having his limbs broken by Andres, to losing his Mithril, and now about to lose his throne, he has been suffering at Andres's hands, and he cannot tolerate it.

"The outcome is still undecided. Andres is just a bit faster. Even if Abad can't hurt him, he can't hurt Abad either. In the end, it'll still be a draw!" Patur comforted himself.

Thinking this, his emotions calmed down a little, but immediately his expression froze.

The situation in the air has undergone a decisive change.

Andres darted through the air like the wind, appearing here and there, dodging Abad's attacks time and time again.

"That's about it."

He decided to end the fight.

With a flash, Andres appeared behind Abad and casually slashed out with his sword.

At first glance, this sword strike seemed slow and sluggish, giving the impression that even someone not at the Saint Domain could easily dodge it.

But upon closer inspection, the sword strike was as fast as lightning.

Both fast and slow states coexist on a single sword.

"Hiss hiss"

A pale blue aura appeared on the blade of the soft sword.

Abad noticed Andres, but the continuous attacks had greatly depleted his Battle Qi and mental strength, causing him to react a beat too late and unable to swing his sword to block.

Just then, a long sword appeared between Andres and Abad.

The longsword blocked Andres's attack, and the terrifying shockwave generated by the collision swept in all directions in an instant, clearing away the clouds in the sky and revealing the entire blue sky.

Abad, who was at close range, was directly hit by the shockwave. The flames on his body were blown out, and he completely withdrew from his flame form, revealing his original appearance.

Yasen was the one who blocked Andres's sword.

Seeing that Andres had begun his attack, he knew that Abad would not be able to stop him, so he decisively intervened.

The two exchanged a single blow and fought to a draw.

"I lost."

Seeing that the aftershocks of the sword clash between Andres and Yasen had broken his ultimate move, Abad knew that he was no match for Andres and decisively conceded defeat.

"Andres, you have already reached the strength of Saint Realm Limit Expert. I am very happy. Our Human Race has gained another pillar." Yasen said with a smile.

Thank you.

Andres himself appeared very calm.

In fact, he was not very satisfied with his sword strike just now.

That sword strike was called "Essence of Speed - Dimension Slash".

In the original story, Linley used this move to easily kill more than 100,000 Abyss Blade Demon.

With a single strike, even minute spatial rifts appeared, already possessing some of the power of the strongest single-target Forbidden Spell, "Dimension Blade."

But Andres hadn't unleashed that much power just now.

"Still not skilled enough."

Although he had the memories of the original work, theory is theory and practice is practice. The reason why Linley was able to unleash this move as soon as he broke through was because he had been comprehending the Profound Mystery "fast" and "slow" and had studied the corresponding moves. He already had a foundation.

Andres had previously only grasped the Profound Mystery of "speed," and while he had a basic understanding of the Profound Mystery of "slowness," he had not studied the corresponding techniques.

This resulted in many flaws and shortcomings in the first use of this move.

"I'll go back and work on perfecting this move. With my current speed and the power of this sword, killing Saint Realm Limit Expert won't be difficult," Andres thought to himself.

"The battle is over. Andres is the victor, and the new King Oga will be Inori," Yasen announced loudly to the crowd below, hovering in the air.

Inori was overjoyed; her eyes lit up and her face flushed with excitement.

"No, impossible, I won't accept it, I absolutely won't accept it!" Unlike Inori, Patur went mad.

He pointed at Yasen, Andres, and a Human Saint Realm.

"What right do you have to decide who will inherit the throne of Oga? King Oga is my father, and my son should rightfully inherit the throne. What is Inori? She's not even a member of the collateral line. What right does she have?"

Patur continued to accuse, his emotions completely out of control.

Andres, Yasen, Abad fell from mid-air.

Seeing Patur's reaction, Abad immediately roared, "Patur, don't forget you're a Human Saint Realm! As Saint Domain, you should have the awareness of Saint Domain member. Is a mere secular throne worth such a loss of composure?"

Abad protects the Oga Kingdom for the sake of his deceased friend. For him, as long as the King Oga is of royal blood, it doesn't matter who he is.

His support for Patur stemmed from their long-standing mentor-student relationship.

He was willing to give his all for Patur, but since he had already lost to Andres, he could accept the defeat with equanimity.

Looking at Patur, Abad felt nothing but disappointment and frustration.

Patur's face turned pale and then red when he heard Abad's angry rebuke. He seemed to have made up his mind. A fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he turned into a streak of light and flew away into the distance.

"Well!"

Seeing this, Abad sighed helplessly.

He said to Yasen and the group of Saint Realm expert, "Don't take it to heart. Give him some time to calm down."

Yasen patted Abad on the shoulder and said, "It's nothing, go over and try to persuade him."

"Um."

Abad nodded, said a brief goodbye to everyone, and then chased after Patur.

"Everyone, the next king of the Oga Kingdom will be Inori. No objections, right?" Yasen confirmed with the Human Saint Realm.

No one had any objections.

Yasen nodded and said to Inori, "Inori, you should prepare to return to the Oga Kingdom in the next couple of days."

"Okay." Inori couldn't have been happier.

She has already grasped the "Drawing Upon Heaven and Earth" technique, and is only one step away from reaching the Saint Domain by accumulating Battle Qi. There is no great significance for her to stay in the Holy Alliance any longer.

"Andres, how about you go with Inori to crown her?" Yasen asked Andres.

Yasen knew that Andres was now as strong as him, and his words carried a tone of negotiation.

"No problem." Andres readily accepted.

Having been with the Holy Alliance for eight years, he also had the opportunity to go back and visit his family.

The matter was settled, and everyone dispersed.

Inori did not return to her own residence, but followed Andres.

"Can I ask you why you helped me?" Inori asked the question that had been on her mind.

She just couldn't understand it.

Andres smiled slightly and didn't explain further, "If there's no special reason, go back and pack your things. Once you're ready, I'll send you back to the Oga Kingdom to ascend the throne."

Seeing Andres's reaction, Inori didn't press the matter further. After thanking him, she returned to her residence.

Andres returned to his small building and found that the Binding Quest for Inori was still in his mind.

"What's going on? Inori's Binding Quest isn't complete yet? Do we have to wait until Inori officially ascends the throne?"

Andres wasn't entirely sure, but he wasn't in a hurry; it was a done deal anyway.

He quickly packed his things and put his luggage into his Space Ring.

Then he set about perfecting the move "Essence of Speed - Dimension Slash".

Two days later, Andres and Inori set off from the Holy Alliance towards the Oga Kingdom.
