Chapter 876 The Initial Cause

As the parties redivided the empire, the war in the Gloria Empire finally subsided.

Of course, the most crucial factor in calming the war was the disappearance of a group of marquises and the shift in focus of a group of ninth-level beings.

The royal guardians no longer care which prince will take the throne in the end. As long as the prince still has the blood of the imperial royal family flowing in his veins and does not violate their contract to protect the royal family, it is enough.

After the disappearance of many marquises, the large number of forces they had established privately became leaderless and even began to attack each other.

The rest of the ninth-order beings had no time to care about them. As the dark doomsday continued to approach, a feeling of impending disaster had loomed over the heads of all the ninth-order beings.

At this point, even the previously slow-witted Ninth Order could react.

The private spread of a message whose original source was unknown made these ninth-level beings truly crazy.

In the hands of the newly promoted ninth-rank prophet [Gray Mist], there is the key to escape from this world and even break through to the legendary rank.

Some ninth-order warriors were skeptical at first, but when they investigated the recent whereabouts of the royal guardians through their own means, they changed their minds.

There was no other reason. The recent actions of the royal guardians were almost unconcealed. They had almost dropped everything else and were running like crazy after any clues of the gray fog.

If Gray Wu had not been a ninth-rank prophet with extensive experience in hiding his tracks and had not activated many backup plans that he had prepared in advance, he would have been completely targeted and killed long ago.

But even now, Gray Mist's situation is becoming increasingly difficult.

Being chased by a large group of ninth-rank warriors was no joke. Even though he had predicted that he would be chased, Gray Mist still nearly fell into the trap many times when it became a reality. As one of the important factors that triggered all this , Anvis did not go to track down Gray Mist like other ninth-rank warriors, but came alone to a town called Savas, where the former Karlas Province and the Itel Kingdom Federation meet.

Due to the years of war in the empire, this small town on the border between the two countries has become extremely prosperous. A large number of mixed outsiders have gathered here, and every day countless people try to cross the border and go to the Federation to escape the war.

The influx of a huge number of outsiders caused the public security in Savas to decline rapidly, but at the same time it also made the economy here begin to prosper.

Now that the war has subsided, this place has transformed from a small town into a medium-sized main city with a population of more than 100,000.

Following the guidance of fate, Anvis finally locked on a single-family house in the upper town of Savas.

The house was empty at the moment. Avis leaned lightly on the tilted magenta eaves, looking up at the starry sky above his head, waiting for a certain moment to come.

Soon, a carriage coming from a distance stopped outside the door, and a slightly shaky figure walked out of the carriage. It was a middle-aged man with brown hair and brown eyes, reeking of alcohol, holding a copy of the Empire Morning Post in his hand. He didn't seem to have anything special about him.

But in Avis's perception, the middle-aged man's appearance was actually always shrouded in a layer of illusory magical disguise.

And beneath that disguised appearance, was a face he had seen in the mirror countless times.

This middle-aged man who lives here in disguise and under an assumed name is none other than Anvis Olivendi of this world.

After the Olivendi family was initially conquered, he followed the final instructions of his father, Duke Carlotte, and used the family secret treasure to extract his own bloodline. He then completely changed his identity and blurred the line of his destiny, thus concealing the subsequent large-scale manhunt.

But surrounded by endless powerful enemies in the outside world, he dared not do anything and could only hide in this border city, using alcohol and his ordinary appearance as cover to get through one difficult night after another.

The flame of reviving the family was burning in his heart all the time, but he knew very well that even if he possessed some of the family's heritage, it would be nothing more than a pipe dream to rely on it to fight against the enemies facing the family.

If he wanted revenge, the only way was to break through to the ninth level himself, and then he would be qualified to truly stand on the stage of the empire.

But when he really started to practice hard, he realized how unattainable the ninth level was.

After losing the legendary bloodline that he was once so proud of, he was once again on the same starting line as the majority of ordinary professionals. In fact, due to his unbalanced mentality, his cultivation speed was even slower than that of ordinary seventh-level professionals.

Under the successive blows, his spirit quickly degenerated, and he even indulged himself in drinking and having fun with some of the local poor nobles every day.

He thought that life would continue like this until one day he accidentally saw news about Fiona in the newspaper.

She became the spiritual leader of the alliance of the four major families and even received support from the legendary ninth-rank prophet [The Man in the Mirror].

Due to some reasons, Avis in this world actually didn't like his sister.

But now, everything in the past is no longer important.

The news about Fiona in the newspaper suddenly became a source of support for his soul.

The girl conquered cities along the way and joined forces with the Ninth Prince, her fame growing.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Until now, the war in the empire has been completely quelled, and the girl has officially ascended to the throne, becoming the Duchess of Calvani Province.

After seeing all this, Anvis's previous dissatisfaction and jealousy towards the girl suddenly disappeared.

He staggered into the house and threw the newspaper on the desk. His eyes swept across the empty room and finally fell on a seemingly ordinary wall beside the bookshelf.

He staggered to the bookshelf, and as his fingers touched several books in a specific order, the rough surface of the wall suddenly disappeared, and a breathtaking oil painting gradually revealed its true appearance.

In this painting, the setting sun pours down like molten gold, casting a warm and mysterious glow on Moonfall Castle. The castle stands tall, and below it is a vast expanse of white bluebells swaying in the wind.

Several familiar figures stood in the sea of ​​flowers, including a majestic middle-aged man with blue hair and blue eyes, a gentle lady with blonde hair and purple eyes, and several young men and women with somewhat similar looks. Some were sitting relaxed on the rocks, while others were holding swords and gazing into the distance.

Standing in front of this huge painting, he stared at the heartwarming scene on the screen, his fingertips lightly touching the uneven handwriting, as if he could still feel the family's past glory and honor flowing through his fingertips.

"Let me help you one last time."

His low mumbling echoed in the room, and as magic power surged, the effects of the alcohol were quickly purified from his body, allowing his vision to regain clarity.

Gazing at Yuelin Castle in the picture, he slowly stretched out his hand, and the moment his fingertips touched the drawing paper, they passed through as if nothing was there, and then he took out a black, quaint stone box from it.

The ice-blue Olivendi family emblem was imprinted on the dusty lid of the box. Avis pressed his finger on it, and the eyes of the Cold Wind Crystal Bird on the emblem flashed, and then the lid automatically popped open.

In the open box, a spherical crystal with a translucent appearance, constantly changing colors, and a core that was glowing alternately. It caught his eyes and also appeared in Avis's perception on the roof.
