Chapter 787: Chapter 414 Uncontrolled Exchange_2

Ivita, however, had learned of the origin of these two from the Knowledge Demon King.

Ivita said to the two of them, "I saved your lives before, so you owe me. The favor I need is simple, I want you to help delay the King of the Ancient Tomb."

Qixiong, within the Elephant Divine Weapons, had a strange look on his face.

On the back of the griffin, Duravin burst into laughter. "I’ve told you, in the battlefield, I won’t hold any grudge for lifesaving favor. You want us to confront that monster so you can go to the Iron Crown mountains? What a delusion."

Facing Duravin’s provocation, Ivita calmly stated, "The King of the Ancient Tomb indeed is a challenging foe. I’ve tentatively or directly battled him several times, yet he has not been defeated."

Qixiong looked more baffled.

Sounded like Ivita was saying the fact that he hadn’t been defeated despite fighting several times already made him a monster.

Duravin scoffed at Ivita, "Stop singing your own praises."

Ivita unblinkingly replied, "Actually, the last time I helped you escape, I already left a magic mark on you. That’s the mark of the Dark Door. I can send you to the King of the Ancient Tomb anytime."

Duravin’s face altered, he hurriedly asked a guard for magic reveal powder, sprinkling it on himself. And indeed, he saw the cursed mark on his forehead.

The guard riding along on the griffin gasped, "Just a touch of his magic and we got cursed successfully? You have the blessings of fairies and several defensive charms, considering this, the magical power of the guy in front of us is beyond estimation, inhuman even."

"Your highness, don’t worry, we carry ’Curse-eating Earthworms’ with us. We can cleanse the curse from you right away."

Duravin subtly sighed in relief and then looked provokingly at Ivita.

However, within the next moment, his expression changed.

The special earthworm placed on his forehead stretched out and died after just a few seconds of struggling.

Duravin’s guard beside him was taken aback, "Your Highness, his magic is too powerful. It’s so strong that even the Curse-eating Earthworm failed to cleanse it. It could only weaken it."

"He has magical power comparable to the Witch Marquis. If that’s true, even if he directly confronts that monster, he might not necessarily be at a disadvantage."

Duravin frowned, clenched his fists. He had always been the one to command and it was a shock to be taught a lesson as soon as he stepped lead out. "Of course, he wouldn’t confront that monster directly."

"After all, he’s not sure if he’ll win."

"The Witch Marquis is a figure that neither the Kingdom nor Empire could recruit, or rather command one hundred percent. Although I am a prince of the Empire, after the previous internal strife, the Empire only has a skeleton crew left, where our family power is just marginally stronger than the Kingdom."

"Of course, they won’t support me, the third son, who possesses such formidable power as that of the Witch Marquis."

At this point, he looked at the veteran guard beside him who hadn’t drawn his sword from the start, even when they were attacked by the King of the Ancient Tomb several times. And he felt some peace amidst the chaos.

He said to Ivita, "Even if you send us to the King of the Ancient Tomb, we’ll just turn around and leave. I can’t figure out why we should fight to the death."

"Hahaha..."

"I was hoping that you two would fight each other while I improve the Iron Crown."

Ivita shook his head, "No, you have a reason to fight the King of the Ancient Tomb. Because I will hand over the most important thing about the King of the Ancient Tomb to you. His heart."

"The only way to kill the King of the Ancient Tomb is to destroy his heart, and now I’m giving it to you."

The very next moment, everyone present was shocked.

Firstly, the King of the Ancient Tomb actually had a weak point in his heart.

Secondly, Ivita was willingly giving them such critical information, arguably, a key aspect to the whole situation.

In that instant, both Qixiong and Duravin were ablaze with greed, wanting to get the heart of the King of the Ancient Tomb from Ivita.

On the griffin’s back, Duravin readily accepted the offer. If he was able to obtain the heart of the King of the Ancient Tomb, perhaps he could threaten the King of the Ancient Tomb into serving him.

If he had such a monster as his subordinate, would he have some hope later in vying for the empire’s throne?

The thought alone quickened Duravin’s breath.

He looked over at his most reticent guard, a Sword Saint of the Empire with the rank of Knight Marquis, who happened to be an elder from his mother’s family.

The Old Sword Saint nodded slightly at him.

Suddenly, Duravin said to Ivita, "If so, we could still discuss this, but if you think we’re going to help you stall the King of the Ancient Tomb, you’re dreaming..."

Ivita No.2 instantly tossed the box containing the King of the Ancient Tomb’s heart at them.

Then, she activated the Dark Door, with her Giant Avatar as the reference point, she forcibly transported everyone over.

Looking at their disappearing figures, Ivita No.2 laughed, "Anyway, even if you got the heart, you don’t have a weapon to destroy it. What does it matter if I give it to you? If the King of the Ancient Tomb were to get it, that would be okay too. I could reclaim the heart anytime via the Dark Door imprint I left on it."

"At this stage, how does it matter that I give you the heart?"

...

At the border of Lombardy Duchy, Ivita’s Giant Avatar blocked the path of the King of the Ancient Tomb.

Ivita’s Giant Avatar used a powerful Gravity Magic on the King of the Ancient Tomb, which forced him to the ground, "We finally meet in reality, King of the Ancient Tomb."

"What kind of meeting in reality do you call this?" The King of the Ancient Tomb spun the Fool’s Drum in his left hand only a few times, and suddenly, the Twisted Magic appeared, erasing the Gravity Magic without a trace.

The King of the Ancient Tomb gazed at the Giant Avatar manipulated by Ivita, "Are you trying to amuse me? Meeting me with a lifeform created by magic, and you call this meeting in reality. Can you muster some courage and let your true self meet me?"

"But come to think of it, creating life with magic is quite an idea."

Ivita simply responded, "Credit goes to good guidance from the Black Witch."

The King of the Ancient Tomb tensed up immediately, "Your teacher is the Black Witch? Did she send you here?"

Ivita responded, "No, I’ve only met her once."

The King of the Ancient Tomb relaxed a bit, but became menacing again, "Kid, I won’t make it difficult for you, just return my heart and leave Lombardy."

Ivita smirked, "I’m sorry, I have an interest in any territory within my reach. I don’t really want to leave."

"There’s one thing I can’t grasp, I’m going to change the Iron Crown in a way that would destroy what it once was, why must you cling to it so desperately?"

The King of the Ancient Tomb rushed at Ivita instantly, his terrifying physical strength tearing through the air, throwing a punch at Ivita’s Giant Avatar,

Even the Giant Avatar manipulating gravity repulsion could not withstand his physical power.

Ivita realized in a moment that the King of the Ancient Tomb, besides having Magic comparable to the Witch Marquis, also possessed physical abilities on par with a Knight Marquis.

However, each aspect was only semi-proficient.

This combined semi-proficiency, along with an indestructible, invulnerable body and everlasting strength, turned him into a monstrous entity that could wear down the endurance of a genuine Witch Marquis.

Ivita understood that, due to the influence of the Dark Soul, the Witch Marquis was much stronger than the Knight, and at a high level, the power of the Witch class surpassed any other class.

The King of the Ancient Tomb sensed that Ivita could be buying time to forge a weapon capable of killing him, hence he kept landing punch after punch on Ivita’s Giant Avatar, "Give me back my heart."

All of a sudden, he realized that his heart was infinitely close to his current location.

The King of the Ancient Tomb looked down at Ivita’s magic Giant Avatar, "What trick are you playing? Are you surrendering by giving me my heart back?"

Ivita pointed to Duravin and his team, who were suddenly transported here through the Dark Door, "I forgot to tell you, they’ve stolen the heart."

The King of the Ancient Tomb’s eyes reddened in fury, "Kill two birds with one stone? Fine, I’ll finish you all off."
