[Rewards: 1x Random Item of All Grades, Beast King's Core, A drop of Fairy Tree's dew, Endless Black Ocean Art(S)]
[Do you want to pull the random item?]
[Yes/No]
"No, not yet. This quest's reward is too valuable to be opened here."
"Such a waste." Huo Yuhao decided to keep the reward unopened.
Moving his gaze to other rewards, Huo Yuhao checked their descriptions one by one.

[Do you want to learn Endless Black Ocean Art?]
[Yes/No]
Huo Yuhao stared at the system panel blankly and breathed in, pressing the yes button with his finger. The content of Endless Black Ocean Art blew his mind in amazement, causing him to smile weakly.
"Soul is the origin of everything."
"Soul is the basis of everything."
"Everything shall return to Soul Land, enemy or not."
"Soul Land, Endless Black Ocean that led everything to the source of the universe." Huo Yuhao closed his eyes and felt something growing in his chest, heating rapidly.
[Gathering of Ten Thousand Waves created harmony with Endless Black Ocean Art]
[New Triat: Endless Soul Waves automatically created]
[Protecting the Core Soul with Endless Waves]
[All Soul-Related Damage received will be reduced by 90%]
[Nullify Soul Manipulation against the host]
[Gathering of Ten Thousand Waves has reached level 6]
[Endless Black Ocean Art has reached 3rd Layer]
[In addition, The number of shadows you could store has increased to 10.000]
"..." Huo Yuhao was speechless.
"What a bountiful harvest I have..."
"Well, better be lucky than none at all."
"I'll save the Beast King's Core for later. This body couldn't handle too many upgrades at one time."
Huo Yuhao yawned and opened his eyes slowly, seeing the sunrise appear from the garden. He was bathed in the warm rays and breathed using Universal Breathing Technique to stabilize his energy.
Three energies are swirling within him now.
Inner Energy.
Spiritual(Mental) Energy.
Soul Energy.
"Open status."
[Name: Theomars von Valstrax(Huo Yuhao)]
Huo Yuhao sat in the garden and stared at Lily de Kemos and Aiden Narmos. He opened his mouth and said, "Let's not beat the bush around and go straight to the point."
He picked up the Karuta Empire's 2nd Emperor's lost badge on the rock table and made the two leaders' eyes widen in surprise. He injected his inner energy and triggered the replay function.
A dying figure of a man appeared before them. His entire body is glowing with dim golden light.
"Great Grandfather..." Lily was speechless.
"How??"
Even Aiden Narmos couldn't believe his eyes for a moment because the 2nd Emperor of the Karuta Empire disappeared without notice years ago. He didn't leave anything, but his descendants kept the Karuta Empire running well.
"To people of the future... My name is Croal de Kemos, the 2nd Emperor of the Karuta Empire. This badge recorded my dying message and will for anyone who finds it to share this information with my descendant."
"I was ambushed by the monster race when trying to find their root."
"The monster race has opened the space crack on the Grand Marshal Mountain. It's small, but they can make it bigger and bigger each day."
"I don't have much time left... No, We don't have much time left."
"I-I... Blerg! I have located the monster race's main army and weaknesses" The man coughed a mouthful of blood. "Deep inside the crack, there are over a hundred 11th-Class Monsters. Yes, you heard that correctly."
"They possessed the strength of an Ancient Monster on their sides."
"Our only way for us to win is the noble blood."
"The heir of Valstrax. The owner of Ancient Ink Devil Bloodline."
"The legendary noble blood should be able to seal the crack."
"Please... Please find the noble blood, or I'm afraid Titania Bolos wouldn't exist anymore..."
"If I can be selfish... Please tell my wife my apology and the news I can't return with the anniversary gift. We recently just got married and have a child, haha. I hope she isn't mad at me in the Overworld(Kroman's Heaven)."
"I love you, Jennifer..." The message ended with a weak smile on Kroal de Kemos's pale face.
Lily de Kemos cried a little and held herself from making a scene. She wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and remembered the sadness of her late Great Grandmother, hoping for her husband's return.
Meanwhile, Aiden Normas solemnly stared at the badge.
"Noble Blood." He mumbled with a frustrated groan. "Where the hell are we supposed to find that person?"
"Even though the Admante Family is known for being Ink Devils, Ancient Ink Devils are a different matter. Its existence stood above all of us."
"We should search-!" He was about to propose a plan, but something suddenly dropped on the table.
"You don't have to." Huo Yuhao activated the All-Transforming Ink, making ink drip from his finger.
"..." Lily de Kemos.
"..." Aiden Narmos.
Huo Yuhao smiled and continued, "What a fucking coincidence, isn't it?"
Rosa chuckled when seeing her sister's expression and looked at Huo Yuhao with brighter eyes. 'As expected of my eternal master.' The shadow woman thought to herself.
"Noble Blood... Ancient Ink Devil." Lily stared at Huo Yuhao in disbelief.
"No wonder he could defeat Alexandra." Aiden Narmos commented.
Brushing their dumbfounded expressions, Huo Yuhao explained the possible aggressive attack from the monster race and told the two leaders to contact other empires before it was too late.
He also told Lily and Aiden to fortify Grodunberg's defense as quickly as possible. He couldn't stay here for too long.
"Follow my plans if you want to survive."
"Monsters aren't smart, but they aren't idiots either."
"Always cautious and be alerted about your surroundings." Huo Yuhao walked away, leaving the two leaders in deep contemplation.
"W-Wait... What about my sister?" Lily suddenly shouted, which halted Huo Yuhao's steps.
Huo Yuhao sighed and grabbed Terresa's corpse from the inventory, laying it down gently on the ground. Lily couldn't handle her emotion anymore and ran for the lifeless body.
"Terresa!" She cried while hugging Terresa's body.
"She died after fighting a monster out of her league. When I arrived at the location, she had already passed away." Huo Yuhao commented calmly.
Lily sobbed and recalled the incident a few days ago, "What about that woman who protected me with her barrier... Who is she?"
"Rosa, talk to her." Huo Yuhao ordered the shadow, who had been waiting for her summons.
"Okay, master~!" Rosa dragged Lily into the shadows and disappeared from the garden.
Aiden's eyes widened as he asked, "Oh, noble one... Do you know about my son's situation? Gale joined the journey with Crown Princess 16 months ago, and I've never heard anything about him since."
"He passed away. Monster Race used his body as a catalyst to create more monsters. He was beyond help, but you can find his trace in Hormes Mountain." Huo Yuhao answered while walking away.
Aiden clenched his hand and whispered sadly, "I see..."
"Thank you for telling me."
"It's nothing special. As Gale's father, you had the right to know this." Huo Yuhao vanished from the garden.
"Mom probably has the same worries as him." He reappeared on the top of the clock tower inside the Admante Family Residence. Looking afar to the horizon, he laughed in defeat and continued, "Damn, I miss her food."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
