The capacity and endurance of a spirit manipulator's Magic Spiritual Space were directly related to his own strength. Therefore, when Glutton made such a huge ruckus within Rocky's Magic Spiritual Space, he immediately felt that his spiritual power was also in a mess. It was like a group of demons was rampaging in his body, and his chest was so stuffy, making him hard to breathe.
'What is it doing? Does Glutton want to kill me?' Rocky clenched his fists as his face turned pale. He had just managed to escape from a huge disaster, and now Glutton was creating such excruciating turmoil.
Eventually, the uproar subsided just before Rocky was unable to hold on any longer. The remains floating in the air gradually turned into ashes and scattered on the ground. Then, Glutton's body shone in bright red light, and a demonic aura shot through the sky in a great momentum. It was as if a demon king was about to descend to the world.
After a while, the body began to shrink, and it finally transformed into a human shape.
Then, the human-shaped Glutton emerged, wearing brocade clothes and a jade crown. There was no hint of a demonic beast in its appearance. It looked quite elegant, like a gentleman. It could be said that it looked very similar to a member of the spiritual race, but of course, the aura it emitted was far superior.
Even Rocky was a little stunned when he saw Glutton's current appearance. He didn't expect that the mightiest ancient demonic beast could transform into the shape of a human.
"What? Do I look strange?" Glutton asked Rocky who was quite staring for a while now.
"Well, I just didn't expect that you could take this form," Rocky explained.
"I have no choice. This is the only way that I can suppress my strength. If I display my original form, I won't be able to control my own power," Glutton answered indifferently.
"Hmm, but why do you look like a member of some spiritual race?" Rocky finally asked. This was already in his mind the moment Glutton's figure emerged.
"Ha! What an ignorant human! Where do you think the spiritual race evolved from?" Glutton shook its head and glanced at Rocky with disdainful eyes.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Rocky asked with furrowed brows.
"Fine, let me tell you. The ancestors of the spiritual race were from the same clan as the ancient demonic beasts and the ancient spiritual beasts. However, they became more intelligent,
be going. You can't blame us for worrying too much."
"I know," Rocky answered softly.
While they were still talking, Felicia and Erica came in.
"Prince Crimson, it was thanks to you that the Magic Phoenix Empire was saved from such disaster. To repay your kindness, our queen has decided to marry my disciple, Erica, to you." Felicia made it sound very formal, but Rocky and the others could see through the underlying motive in every word that she spoke. They knew that she must be up to something.
At first, they were surprised. They didn't expect that the Magic Phoenix Empire would go this far. But of course, they knew what the empire really wanted. The Magic Phoenix Empire hoped that Erica could get pregnant with Rocky's child, who in turn would inherit the parents' excellent genes.
"Well… I don't think that it's necessary." Rocky did all he could to refuse politely. He also cast a glance at Erica and found that her expression was a little complicated. It seemed that she was dissatisfied and wanted to disagree with the decision of the queen.
"Our queen said that even if you refuse, we will still send Erica to the Holy Dragon Empire. Her role is to boost the relationship between the two empires. So, even if you don't accept our gift, we're sure that the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire would be glad to do so," Felicia said firmly, making them understand that there was no room for any negotiation.
Rocky frowned a bit after hearing this. Judging from what Felicia said, it was clear that the Magic Phoenix Empire would do whatever means just to force his marriage with Erica.
