Chapter 454 452-Ethan's Deep Slumber

Within the territory of the Shadow Clan, the collaboration between Eck and the Shadow Elves was indeed perfect.

They swiftly succeeded in helping the Shadow Clan's people escape from their perilous situation.

Moreover, during this process, both of them could sense that the Power of Shadow within the clan's territory seemed to be rapidly waning.

This probably meant that Ethan had achieved success.

"It looks like Ethan has thoroughly defeated Dart.noVeLBIn

The Power of Shadow has rapidly diminished, and we should be able to see the victorious return of Ethan very soon," the Shadow Elf spoke with great joy.

After all, for the Shadow Elf, Ethan's triumph meant that their clan would no longer be threatened by others.

Although Sherry had not yet awakened, the Shadow Elf believed that if Ethan could defeat Dart, there was a good chance he could break Sherry's slumber.

Previously, the Shadow Elf had only speculated that Sherry's slumber was related to the power of the God of Curses.

After encountering Dart, the Shadow Elf confirmed that their conjecture was entirely correct.

Eck's emotions were, in fact, very complex in response to the Shadow Elf's words.

Eck had already become thoroughly disappointed with Dart.

After all, Dart had previously launched an attack on Eck and had indeed sought to harm Eck's mortal enemy.

If Ethan could eliminate Dart, it would undoubtedly be a good thing for Eck.

It would be even better if Dart didn't reveal his plans to Ethan before being eliminated.

However, even if Dart did divulge his plans to Ethan, Eck could still continue to defend himself when facing Ethan.

He could easily claim that Dart's words were false, merely an attempt to slander him.

While it was true that Eck no longer needed to worry about Dart's threat, Ethan's victory over Dart meant that Dart would never have a chance to lay hands on Ethan's weapon again.

Eck was undeniably eager to obtain Ethan's spear, for in his eyes, it was the only true divine artifact.

Eck listened to the Shadow Elf's words with a complicated mix of emotions.

He refrained from offering a response because he was uncertain how to assess the statements made by the Shadow Elf.

As an elder of the Shadow clan, Eck inherently harbored some bias against the Shadow Elves, perceiving them as somewhat eccentric.

Though the present Shadow Elf seemed remarkably rational, there remained the possibility that they could descend into madness at any moment.

"I wonder if we should venture to Valhalla to assess the situation? If Ethan emerges victorious, we could offer him some assistance," the Shadow Elf suggested after a brief pause.

In response to this proposition, Eck promptly and decisively declined.

"I believe it would be best if we refrained from intervening for now. Our presence would only complicate matters."

"What if Ethan's battle isn't yet concluded? Do you honestly believe he can provide us protection during the fight? Our strength is feeble, incapable of posing any threat to Dart."

As they passed through Valhalla's imposing gates, their eyes fell upon Dart, who lay sprawled on the ground.

Dart's condition was dire, his life hanging by a thread, but he had not yet succumbed to death.

Shadow Elf and Eck approached Dart, their expressions a reflection of the profound mystery that surrounded them.

"Ethan, where is he? Did you defeat Ethan?"

Eck appeared slightly surprised when faced with Dart, who hadn't been completely eliminated.

He directly asked the question that concerned him the most.

Dart, with only his eyes fixed on Eck, offered no response.

It seemed as though Dart hadn't quite understood the question Eck had posed.

Shadow Elf followed up with some questions, but Dart still didn't provide any answers.

Dart appeared to have lost consciousness completely.

"He's been severely wounded! It looks like he doesn't have much time left! We must find out where Ethan is!"

Shadow Elf decided to disregard Dart, as he believed Dart's life or death held little significance for him.

He headed deeper into Valhalla.

Eck didn't immediately follow but instead kept a close watch on Dart, contemplating his next move.

He saw this as a golden opportunity.

He could eliminate Dart right here and now.

Once Dart was gone, no one would ever know about his past conspiracies with Dart.

However, Eck was also hesitant at the moment, sensing that something was amiss.

Just as Eck hesitated, he suddenly heard the voice of the Shadow Elf: "Hurry over here, I've found Ethan!"

After a brief moment of contemplation, Eck headed swiftly in the direction of the Shadow Elf.

It didn't take long for him to spot Ethan lying at the deepest part of Valhalla.

Ethan's current condition mirrored that of Sherry; he too was ensnared in a deep slumber.

"What on earth is going on? Why is Ethan's condition identical to the High Priest's? Could it be that Dart is responsible for the High Priest's slumber as well?"

Eck had already concluded that Sherry's slumber was caused by Dart.

The Shadow Elf offered his perspective, "I don't think Ethan and Sherry's slumber is due to Dart. He doesn't have such mighty power. It's more likely because of the curse of the deity behind Dart."

"Only a deity with such immense power could plunge Ethan into this deep slumber."

"If I'm right, all we can do is wait for Ethan to awaken on his own right now."
