Chapter 883 883: Earth

The Emperor entered the Temple, leaving the Shadow Guards stunned about his future. It was the first time they had seen the Emperor talk about his own death as if he was certain that it was going to happen.

The Shadow Guards were absolutely loyal to the Emperor who had led them for over a century.

Seeing him like this, all of them felt pain in their heart but even then, they followed the law of the land and didn't try to stop the Emperor. They only hoped that he was going to return safely.

Unaware about the concerns of his Shadow Guards, the Emperor entered the Temple, his eyes locating the majestic statue on the other end of the hall.

The Statue had eyes closed, looking just as intimidating as the past. However, something felt different about it.

As the Emperor stood before the statue, he didn't understand what this strange feeling was. But it was as if he could feel someone's presence inside the temple with him.

Strangely enough, even with his skills, he couldn't locate the presence. It was everywhere and nowhere at the same time. He didn't know if he was just overthinking or if there was really something like that.

The Emperor shook his head and stopped thinking about it, as he went down on his knees at the foot of the Statue.

"Unlike before, I don't possess my Immortality anymore. I can't take off my head to satisfy the Lords above," the Emperor spoke as he pulled out a knife. "However, I will still give you everything I have!"

He grabbed the knife in his left hand and cut off his right hand, letting blood fall at the statue's feet. This had never worked when he had immortality.

He could only sacrifice his head if he wanted to receive a response from above. As he had his Immortality, he could regrow another head so it wasn't a loss for him.

The only scary thing about that was the pain of death that he felt. But now, he didn't have that immortality. He decided to test if the blood from his hand was going to work or not.

Unfortunately, the test failed as the Statue remained silent. Vissit novelbin(.)c.om for updates

The Princess rushed towards the Temple, only to be stopped by the Shadow Guards that protected the place.

"You're not allowed to take a step forward."

Only one shadow guard made his presence known, and that too because he wanted to stop the girl.

"Did my brother enter the Temples?" the girl asked.

"His Majesty indeed entered the temple. However, no one else is allowed to enter the place." The Shadow Guard replied. "Please return."

"His life is in danger! I need to stop him!" The girl exclaimed as she tried to pass through.

Unfortunately, she was weaker than the shadow guards as she didn't have the inheritance that her brother received after becoming the Emperor.

"We are following His Majesty's commands. You aren't allowed to enter." Although the Shadow Guards knew that the girl might become the next ruler but until then, they had to follow the command they had.

They didn't let the girl pass through, no matter how hard she tried. It was only after the Emperor didn't return for hours, they decided to give her the message that the Emperor had left behind for her.

It was an era of change.

Earth was a modern world that was said to not possess even the slightest of magic. Still, it was gathered by many powerful beings, going through several godly wars.

No one understood what made earth so special when it was so ordinary at first glance.

A portal opened in the middle of nowhere on earth. From the portal, Karyk stepped out, accompanied by Gabriel and the others. It was the first time they had arrived on earth.
