Dragon Tribulation of All Realms

Chapter 365 - A Little Bit More
"Please let me stay with Princess Leah. I've handled many of these matters myself. If there's any resentment, I won't be able to escape it."

Maris stayed behind, and surprisingly, even Kanami hesitated only briefly before joining Lia's side. According to her, she owed Lia a great debt of gratitude, and Lia had actually played a crucial role in previous matters.

If they're willing to do it this way, then so be it. Wu Chen nodded, released the vengeful spirit, and then closed the door and the magical barrier together.

A terrifying sound rang out.

It was as if something was being torn apart, crushed, ravaged, and ground down. Accompanied by splattering liquid and screams that, though suppressed, still escaped through the doorway, the scene was chaotic. It's hard to say what could survive such treatment, but considering this is the world of Lance, the final outcome might be different.

possible.

He increased the sound shielding level and then went downstairs. He bumped into Pap and Sweetness, who were pacing anxiously downstairs. Their eyes met for a moment in mid-air, and the tavern girl instinctively turned her head away, embarrassed to look at him.

Good morning, Mr. Duster... Have you had breakfast yet?

"Good morning, Sweetie." Wu Chen's gaze swept over her, noticing her hand instinctively hidden behind her back and the faint aroma of pastries emanating from it. "...I was just about to get something to eat, any recommendations?"

"Please, please accept this!" It was another fruit cake—the cooking process might have been a bit rushed, but it was still filled with considerable affection. Clearly, after a brief moment of confusion and frustration, the tavern girl rallied her spirits after taking the first one, and made another one with the spare ingredients, which she carried with her.

Wu Chen took it and tasted it. The food he had eaten earlier had already been completely digested in his chest and abdomen at a speed a hundred times faster than normal. The new food he was eating also tasted excellent.

"It tastes very good." Wu Chen gave a genuinely honest evaluation. "Thank you, Sweetie. You've been a great help."

"Ugh..." The tavern girl turned her head shyly, her eyebrows arching and her cheeks flushed. "I'm glad you like it..."

She hesitated for a moment, then stammered as she spoke.

“If you have time, tonight… oh…” She couldn’t finish her sentence before a cloud of steam rose from her head. The blush on her face spread to the roots of her neck in an instant, and she could no longer utter a word.

She ran away.

Wu Chen watched her disappear into the distance and chuckled to himself—the tavern owner, hiding in the shadows, also breathed a sigh of relief and carefully returned to where he was supposed to be.

The minor incident ended there, and Wu Chen left the tavern, arriving on the wide street—after a night of coordination and reorganization, Lisas, which had been somewhat chaotic, had returned to its usual peaceful state. Although a hint of tension still lingered in the air, the number of people coming and going had finally returned to normal.

This is how a city should be.

Outside of Lysas, the crater created by the eruption of the mantle pillar has been completely repaired by the magical effects of the Witch Dust. Although the land far from the city is somewhat scorched and scarred, even there, parts of it are being covered with lush vegetation at a visible speed, and the small animals that were charred to a crisp are quickly being replaced.

Nature's recovery speed is quite rapid under the effect of magic.

Even though he left the table with the map-making skills in the guest room, he could still sense the general changes in the entire Kingdom of Lisas when his feet touched the ground.

Several points of interest caught his eye—he saw Leila guarding the palace, while another reconnaissance team, tasked with investigating changes outside the city, had already set off. Minado was in this team; there was a high probability she would run into Britannia, who had already cleared the wilderness and whose creature level had returned to level 50. Besides, Nekai, who had only recently left, was currently visiting a nobleman's home.

That seems to be Xiaoguang's home.

—Oh, I almost forgot.

Wu Chen felt in his pocket and took out Xiao Guang's photo. This now useless quest item burned and crumbled into ashes in his eyes. This also meant that he lightly pressed the 'Quest Completed & Submitted' button.

Power then surged forth.

The commission was completed, and the fulfillment of Source Theory granted him a reward. His biological level had silently risen several levels in his perception. Now, his total level was Lv63.
And beyond that...

Wu Chen raised his hand.

As the fingertips are raised, a faint light appears at the tip of the finger.

It was pitch-black light, a physical phenomenon caused by spatial collapse. Unlike the molecular disintegration effect of white light, the effect of black light is a destructive force directly aimed at the stability of spacetime.

This is the black destructive ray.

This is the most powerful magic that ordinary mortals in this world can use and understand under normal circumstances. It even holds the potential to forcibly dismantle the invincible barrier of a weak demon, provided the effort is sufficient.

"...It was simpler than I expected."

The principle is actually quite simple: it's about artificially creating a controllable spacetime collapse phenomenon through highly precise magical manipulation. The difficulty lies in the precision of the manipulation rather than the arrangement of the magical structure. It's no wonder that the locals in the original texts who possessed Lv3 magical potential could master this power called Black Break without much magical research.

So……

The black light at Wu Chen's fingertips converged into a sphere. The Destruction Sphere magic, taught by Hera, now had a reason to reappear in the world. Unlike the unrestrained world of dreams, he needed a convincing explanation to use otherworldly magic in this realm. Although, it seemed entirely possible to simply disregard his pride and act forcefully.

—That's fine anyway.

The small, jet-black sphere silently disintegrated at Wu Chen's fingertips. This modified high-level magic, capable of destroying an entire block in an instant, even wiping out a large portion of the city of Lisas, vanished and melted away like a phantom.

His gaze immediately fell downwards.

The last point of particular interest came into view. He saw the black Lolita dress and the blooming spider lily. The girl of destiny named Millie Linkle was waiting in the 'Abandonment', and coincidentally, he had a request to handle with her.
