Chapter 847: Chapter 424 The Story of the Spectral Saint Mage (Part 2)

"Brother, what’s the use of talking to a madman like this? But are we going to die?" Long Kongkong looked at Long Dangdang.

"Smack!" Before Long Dangdang could open his mouth, Long Kongkong was again slapped to the ground.

The eyes of the Sorcery Demon King twinkled with an ominous light as he watched him coldly.

Long Dangdang pulled his brother up from the ground and stood in front of him, "My brother is not wrong. Are you not madmen? For the sake of your own hatred, you’ve established the Wraith Kingdom and slaughtered how many humans? Although I don’t know what you have suffered in the past, does that justify your current actions as being any better than those who once harmed you?"

The Sorcery Demon King replied indifferently, "No, you are wrong. We have never harmed humans. We are simply granting them immortality; they have not felt any pain. Gaining immortality by merely changing form, isn’t that wonderful? How do you know they are in pain?"

Long Dangdang realized that it was probably useless to say anything more. Anyone capable of establishing the Wraith Kingdom and commanding a legion of millions of wraiths, the Spectral Saint Mage, had beliefs that were already solidified within their heart, unbendable by mere words, complete with their own convictions.

"Long Dangdang, Long Kongkong, I hope you will submit to me willingly. Only then can I help you preserve your complete memories and wisdom, so that you can join me in ruling over the Wraith Kingdom. I can acknowledge Hep Benn as my goddaughter, and I can acknowledge you as my descendants. With the noble bloodline you possess, you will be sufficient to uphold the sky belonging to our Wraith Kingdom, and perhaps even become the rulers of the entire world in the future. What can these humans offer you?"

Long Kongkong poked his head out from behind Long Dangdang and said, "My brother has just won the championship in the Great Impartation Contest of the 6 Great Sacred Temples, and I am the top student of the Knights Temple. In the future, my brother could possibly become the Sacred Legate, and I might even become the Knights Temple Master. Among humans, we can also become leaders."

The Spectral Saint Mage was obviously taken aback; she clearly hadn’t expected Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong to hold such high status within the 6 Great Sacred Temples.

Long Dangdang, quite helplessly, nudged his brother, thinking, now that you’ve said this, there’s even less chance we’ll be let go! Of course, there was never much of a chance to begin with.

"It seems that you still do not fully understand the depravity inherent in human nature. So, let me tell you two stories."

Long Dangdang’s brow furrowed slightly; he sensed that the Wraith Monarch seemed particularly patient with him and his brother. He didn’t know why, but he speculated that it might be because the Bloodline Power of the two of them was greatly beneficial to her. This was the most likely reason; if it was simply because they posed a threat to the Wraith Kingdom, there was no need for talk—killing them outright would do!

While he pondered this, the Spectral Saint Mage began her story.

The Spectral Saint Mage said calmly, "Sixteen thousand eight hundred and ninety-seven years ago, my teacher was born in a city within the Massive Wave Empire, located in the northwestern part of the continent. The city was called Siddi."

"His father is the city lord of Siddi, a hereditary Earl. He is his father’s only son."

"From the day he was born, my teacher was a noble. To prepare him for inheriting his Earl title in the future, his father hired the best tutors from an early age to teach him all sorts of knowledge and etiquette. At the age of six, my teacher was discovered to have a powerful affinity with the light element, possessing the physique of a ’prodigy of Luminosity’. Even though nearly seven thousand years have passed, my teacher’s father was extremely excited at the time. He held my teacher in his arms, spinning around in the great hall, excitedly shouting, ’Eleks, you are my pride.’ Yes, my teacher is called Eleks, later known as the ’Spectral Saint Mage’, the ’Wraith Calamity’ Eleks."

"After that, my teacher became a light specialty mage. His cultivation speed shocked all the tutors who taught him. By the age of eleven, he had become a 4th Rank Great Mage. At thirteen, a magic mentor, and at just fifteen, he became the youngest 6th Rank Great Magic Mentor in the whole continent."

Listening to him, both Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong were shocked. At fifteen, they hadn’t reached the 6th Rank! That is to say, at the same age of fifteen, Eleks was more outstanding and more powerful than them. And now, Long Dangdang was already the champion of the Great Impartation Contest.

"At that time, my teacher already had the ability to shock the world. So his father took him to participate in the Genius Battle hosted by the Glorious Papacy, a competition among the three great empires of the continent at that time. Only young people under the age of twenty could participate in the Genius Battle. The Glorious Papacy had disappeared many years ago, and it was only later that the 6 Great Sacred Temples and your Temple Federation emerged. The papacy was ultimately destroyed by the demon tribe."

"In that Genius Battle, my teacher was undoubtedly the center of attention. There were very few opponents who could last more than a minute against him. He was also handsome when he was young, not inferior to you now. Countless noble ladies from the three great empires tried to attract his attention by flirting coyly. Finally, the championship battle arrived, and his opponent was Princess Flo of the Empire. She was also a genius, a powerful summoner. With the support of the imperial royal family, although she was only sixteen, she already had her birth sign summoned beast, the Purple Lightning Star Emperor Dragon. Although her cultivation wasn’t on par with my teacher’s, her endless summoned beasts were challenging to deal with. That battle lasted a full hour. In the end, she lost due to a lack of Spiritual Power, and my teacher won the final championship. And through that Genius Battle, the Massive Wave Empire also became the biggest winner."

"At that time, the Land of the Sacred and Demonic was completely under human rule, and the total human population was probably several times, even ten times what it is now. And the Genius Battle was undoubtedly the highest platform for young people to showcase their talents, with the utmost honor for the ultimate victor."

"The Pope of the Glorious Papacy personally granted my teacher the award. The Empire even directly bestowed upon him the title of Viscount along with a hundred miles of fief. The prize my teacher received was a set of sub-godly vessels, later known as Eternal Class equipment. At that time, my teacher was in high spirits, possessing the most exalted glory of all the young people on the continent. Even Perot, the Pope’s son, paled in comparison to him."

"As they say, no fight, no friendship; the battle with Princess Flo made them admire each other. From then on, they were hailed as the Twin Stars of the Empire and were pinned with great expectations. My teacher was directly transferred by the Emperor to the Royal Magic Academy to study in-depth together with Princess Flo, receiving the full-fledged support of the Empire."

Although they were only hearing her recount this story, the brothers Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong could imagine just how triumphant the young Eleks was. At only sixteen, he had achieved such glory, which would be true for anyone.

The Spectral Saint Mage continued, "During his time studying at the Royal Magic Academy, my teacher and Flo were together day and night, cultivating and studying magic together every day. Their feelings for each other grew deeper and deeper. My teacher fell deeply in love with her beauty and genius. They had endless topics to talk about when together; they pledged their troth and were inseparable. Far from distracting my teacher from his cultivation, their relationship only made his cultivation progress faster. By the age of eighteen, my teacher had already become an 8th Rank Magic Mentor. Given his cultivation speed at that time, it was certain that he would break through to the 9th Rank by the age of twenty. He would become the youngest 9th Rank powerful expert in the history of the Empire. By then, he could arguably be considered the future of the Empire, possessing great strength and power, standing at the pinnacle of the world."
