Hail the King

“Ahhhhhh! Disgusting!”

After Victoria spat out, her pretty face paled. She kicked off her high heels and ran out barefooted. As she dashed out, she shouted, “Water! Give me some water! I need to rinse my mouth! Ahhhhh! Water......”

She turned around and looked back at Fei after taking two steps, saying, “Those documents are the account books that I reorganized. Your revenue and treasury recordings at Chambord were a mess. I created a new system. Take a look; if you are happy with it, then stamp it and pass it...... Yuck!”

After that, this [Fallen Princess], who was usually lazy and greedy, ran out with her bare white feet to find water to rinse her mouth.

“Hahahahaha!” Everyone in the dining hall laughed out loud, and Little Raccoon went to pick up the big piece of roasted meat Victoria dropped; it was feasting on it and having such a great time that its black and white striped tail even stood up.

It was late into the night after dinner.

Head Minister Bast already sent a carriage to the gate of the King’s Palace, and it was here to bring Angela back home. There was a ton of stuff for them to arrange before the wedding.

The king’s father-in-law lost his wife when he was mid-aged, and his daughter was his only family. After experiencing the toughest time, his life finally turned around. Therefore, he paid a lot of attention to his daughter’s wedding, and he was doing a lot of preparations according to noble traditions.

After Angela waited for Fei and had dinner, she went back to her father’s place with Emma and the four maids.

As common traditions on the continent, Angela could only come back and live with the king after the wedding was completed.

Soon after Angela and the girls were gone, Fei called in Torres and gave him some tasks. Then, he went back to his bedroom with Little Raccoon who had a full belly.

After eating, this little guy rolled up into a ball and fell asleep on a chair.

Fei, on the other hand, summoned [The Throne of Chaos]. As it hovered a meter above the air, he sat on it and started to practice the training techniques documented on the mysterious purple scroll. As his strength increased and his view broadened, Fei felt like the spirit energy was getting more and more important. Therefore, he had been trying to improve it daily.

A lot of people only saw the king’s rocket-like growth and his dominating presence, but only a few people knew that he only slept about one to two hours a night. During other times, he was cultivating and practicing. Even though he had the Diablo World, his work ethic still surpassed most of the geniuses in this world.

Practicing while sitting on [The Throne of Chaos] was one of the shortcuts Fei recently discovered.

This mysterious throne not only granted Fei the ability to travel through space; it could also help him concentrate and increase the efficiency when he trained his spirit energy.

Unfortunately, Fei couldn’t obtain warrior energy or magic energy, so he wasn’t sure if this throne could boost up the speed of all cultivation.

The night was quiet, and it was a bit chilly.

Fei slowly opened his eyes after three hours.

“Hm...... My spirit energy finally surpassed level 800. Now, I can stay in Diablo World for eight hours a day, and the NPCs from [Rogue Encampment] could also stay in the real world for eight hours. This way, the reconstruction and the renovation of Chambord could speed up even more!”

Fei spread out his spirit energy quietly. After reaching level 800, he could easily scan an area of two kilometers around him, almost half of Chambord. Like the most advanced radar, he could clearly sense the energy surges on all the people within his scan zone, and nothing could hide from him.

“One day, I will reach level 6000, and I would be able to come and go from Diablo World without having to worry about the time constraint. In the same time, people like Elena, Cain, and Akara would be able to stay in the real world as long as they want as well!”

After pulling back his spirit energy, Fei was delighted with his progress.

Buzz!

A sky-blue portal appeared in front of him, and he walked in after putting [The Throne of Chaos] back into his body.

......

-Diablo World, Durance of Hate-

“Hahaha! Stupid humans! Are you here to sacrifice your delicious blood and flesh? Haha, I couldn’t wait! Go! Kill them!”

[Lord of Pain] Mephisto’s roar resonated in the area, shaking the walls and the ground of this space.

Under its command, numerous powerful monsters with weapons and armors rushed toward Fei and Elena fearlessly.

In the last few days, Fei sped up his quest-completing speed. After completing all quests in the second map, [Lut Gholein], he came to the third map, [Kurast Docks] and finished quests such as [The Golden Bird], [Blade of the Old Religion], [Khalim’s Will], [Lam Esen’s Tome], and [The Blackened Temple]. He earned rewards such as a bottle of potion that could permanently increase his HP by 40 and a book called Lam Essen’s Tome that recorded all the weaknesses of the monsters from hell.

Now, Fei was a Nightmare Mode level 70 Barbarian, and Elena a level 60 Magic Archer. However, Elena’s real offensive ability was about 20 levels lower since she shared a lot of the skill points and attribute points with her second Paladin Bloodline. The Valkyrie was a lot more well-rounded since her defensive ability increased by a lot.

Fei and Elena were facing the [Lord of Pain], Mephisto, who was the boss on this map.

As long as they killed it, the third map would be completed.

Fei wasn’t holding back anything. With [Immortal King’s Stone Crusher] in his hands and [Immortal King’s Soul Cage] on his body, he unleashed all his strength and attacked forward. Every time he struck out, there seemed to be fire elements around his hammer.

Now with two items in the [Immortal King] set with him, the additional fire damage that came with his hammer took away the lives of the demons, and their corrosive blood stained the land.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

With the [Grand Matron Bow] in her hand, Elena was enveloped by a silver energy flame. As the bowstring vibrated, arrows dashed toward the demons as if they were invitations from the Grim Reaper.

This pair of couples who weren’t married yet coordinate smoothly, and it felt like they were the messengers of death.

However, there were way too many monsters charging at them; it felt like these monsters were waves in an ocean.

Among these monsters, there were mage-types where they stood far away and threw high-damaging spells such Ice Arrows, Poisonous Smoke, and Burning Fire. All these various spells enveloped Fei and Elena.

Soon, the two of them were in a tough situation.

This was the Nightmare Mode after all, and it was challenging.

Also, the [Lord of Pain], Mephisto, was observing from the sideline and frequently threw in range-attacks; it was very sly.

From the battles with the monsters in the Nightmare Mode after some time, Fei slowly discovered one thing: the monsters all had their own minds and the intelligence of kids. Especially the bosses at the end of each map; they had basic battle awareness and didn’t attack based on scripts anymore. Compared with bosses in the Normal Mode, they were much harder to deal with.

This battle took Fei and Elena more than three hours.

As he saw Mephisto crying and dying in a pool of its own blood, Fei let go of the breath that he was holding in. His hand that was holding [Immortal King’s Stone Crusher] felt a little sour, and he felt a little tired. There were more than a dozen deep wounds on his body, and both him and Elena were covered in blood; they weren’t sure if most of the blood was from them or the monsters.

At the same time, bright lights flashed on the magic items on the ground.
