Chapter 59 Mural

A gigantic figure approached the forest.

The trees that sprouted in spring began to bend and decay, and large swathes of forest rotted and collapsed.

The giant in silver-gray armor stopped in his tracks. His skin was grayish-blue, and where there should have been a single eye in the center of his face was a ray of light that resembled the setting sun.

He was none other than "King of Giants" Olmir.

Not far from Him, a massive black shadow resembling a demonic wolf lay prone in front of Him. The light around Him seemed to be absorbed, surrounded by a circle of darkness, in which slippery, transparent tentacles with intricate patterns constantly wriggled.

Seeing a faint gray-white mist swirling in the darkness surrounding the demonic wolf, Olmir asked uncertainly, "Fregora, did you succeed?"

But the only response He received was from the darkness that sought to erase His existence.

This wolf clearly possesses the ability to speak, yet it completely refuses to communicate!

Olmir could no longer suppress the violent emotions in his heart, and an atmosphere of decay gradually spread as dusk appeared.

But the twilight that shattered the darkness was transferred to Himself by a strange force.

Although this method did not cause much damage to Olmir, at this moment, Olmir realized that "King of the Dire Wolves" Fregra was even stronger.

However, this wolf has gone even crazier!

Could it be that this mad wolf really devoured the source that they coveted? Yet they could still detect that unknown aura carrying the power of "stealing"!

Olmir sensed the phoenix's pale flames approaching from the spirit world, and a "door" forming beside him. His expression was cold, and the power of dusk covered the nascent door, delaying its formation.

His body rapidly aged into putrid liquid, and then evaporated in the blink of an eye.

Olmir, who had temporarily left the battlefield, could still feel the aftershocks of the battle between the mad wolf and the phoenix progenitor from afar.

Battles like this broke out too many times during this period, but none of them resulted in a kill or serious injury to the opponent.

But this time, the mad wolf gave Him a different feeling.

It was as if they had been tainted by the aura of the guy they were chasing, and the power and authority of the mad wolf had also subtly changed.

Olmir noticed that the aura that had lured them there had disappeared again, and he was even more confused about what was going on with the gray mist aura on the mad wolf.

He grew increasingly agitated, but aside from the difference in strength between himself and the mad wolf, more importantly, whenever the three of them clashed, "Phoenix Ancestor" Greta Garley would always attack him first.

Seeing that this entanglement was proving fruitless, Olmir hesitated for a moment before his figure vanished from the spot once more.

In a secluded corner of the Giants' Court.

Outside Hermaine's residence stood a group of giants in black armor as guards.

However, Hermaine did not detect any consciousness feedback from these black-armored guards—these black-armored guards were not true living beings, but each of them possessed terrifying power.

"These are my creations from my spare time. If you're interested, I can give you one," said Omibella, dressed in luxurious attire, with a beaming smile.

Hermaine politely declined with a smile, saying, "I don't have the power to manipulate Your Highness's creations."

Omibella didn't mention the matter. She came to visit Helmaenie and brought with her the corpse of a dragon, a spoil of war from the giants.

Hermaine had already sensed that the dragon corpse contained characteristics of the "Dreamweaver".

But she really doesn't need it anymore.

Advancing through a different path cannot devour extraordinary traits of the same sequence. For "Tri-Headed Sanctuary," devouring the "Dreamer" sequence's three traits would accumulate immense madness.

However, it can be used for "herding"...

But it would be even better if it had the characteristics of Sequence Two "Insightful"... Helmaenie thought regretfully.

Of course, this is just wishful thinking. To obtain the Sequence 2 trait, one would have to kill a dragon god. Even if Omibella and the other giants could successfully kill a dragon god, they wouldn't be willing to give her that god trait.

Because of the disguise of flesh magic, Helmaenie did not arouse suspicion when she "herded" the dragon's soul in front of Omibella.

During this process, Helmani deliberately lingered for a long time and revealed her depraved nature, causing her body to mutate and simulating a state of being on the verge of losing control.

Even so, when she finally demonstrated the various abilities of the "Dream Weaver," Omibella exclaimed in amazement: "You actually succeeded, and you maintained your rationality quite well... Perhaps, in the near future, you really will become a god of our giant race."

"Thank you for your gift, Your Highness." Helmaenie expressed her gratitude to Omibella after showing her delight. After some casual conversation, Helmaenie asked, "Your Highness, may we be allowed to go out freely?"

Omibella didn't object to such a trivial matter, and said with a smile, "Alright. The reason I restricted your movements before was because I was afraid that you, being too weak, might encounter accidents. But now that you've become stronger, as long as you don't trespass into areas protected by guards, there won't be any problems."

Finally, before leaving, Omibella said with a smile, "When the King returns and sees you so powerful, he will surely be pleased and surprised."

They're really raising me as a breeding machine...

After seeing Omibella off, Selena, who had overheard the last part of the conversation next door, asked in confusion, "Councilor Helmani, were you invited here by that king?"

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The little girl keenly sensed that there was something more to it.

Helmani smiled calmly, "It's quite normal for the king to invite me when a demigod has emerged from a vassal race... And as you've heard, the giants really do intend to groom me into a new vassal god. Perhaps this is an opportunity for our rise to power."

These words shook Selena's doubts. Although she always felt that things were not so simple, she couldn't think of any problems for the time being.

Helmani continued, "Now that the restrictions are lifted, I'll take you sightseeing. Come on, it's time to relax. Don't overthink things at such a young age."

Although going out for a stroll did not completely dispel Selena's doubts, the relaxed environment allowed the girl to temporarily put the matter aside.

Once outdoors, the closer they got to the main day of the Spring Festival, the more bustling the Giant Kingdom became, with giants gathering everywhere, making Helmaene and Selena, two humans, stand out conspicuously.

However, Helmaenie completely ignored these doubtful, greedy, and curious gazes.

It was like strolling through a human tribe's gathering, taking Selena to eat and play as she pleased.

When faced with a rude and troublesome giant, he simply altered his subconscious to "correct" the other party's malicious attitude.

Under this influence, Selena also relaxed and experienced the excitement of the giants' kingdom.

During her stroll, Hermaine saw the twelve stone pillars with murals and reliefs built to celebrate the festival in different places.

However, they vary in size and style.

Therefore, she saw the giantess named Hevorsia intently carving more than once.

In a corner that Helmaenie wasn't paying attention to.

The giantess would always take out a small, mirror-like object and hold it in front of her eyes to observe the details of the murals and reliefs she created.
