Chapter 1843 What Happened In The Ancient Times


    "Valeria, it''s too dangerous. Just stay here." Since Rocky knew that this task would be far too


    dangerous than the previous ones, he didn''t want Valeria to take the risk.


    "Ha! You''re trying to get rid of me again? No way! I will go with you this time, and that''s final!" When


    Rocky went to the territory of the human race alone, Valeria felt a deep sense of emptiness in her


    heart. She clearly knew that it was because she didn''t want to be apart from her husband. Hence, even


    though Rocky wanted her to stay behind again, she would definitely not agree this time.


    Hearing her firm response, Rocky could just shake his head and smile bitterly. It was not his intention,


    but it seemed that he identally made Valeria really fall in love with him.


    "All right. If you really insist oning, then go with us," Rocky finally agreed, which actually surprised


    Valeria.


    "Really? You''re serious?" Valeria thought that it would take more than that to convince Rocky, so she


    did not expect that he would agree to let here that easily.


    "Yes, of course. After all, you are the Godly Genius of the Flower Fief. It means that you are also


    qualified topete to be the sessor of the king. I think that it will be unfair of me to remove


    that opportunity for you. So, yes,e with me and give it a try." The main reason why Rocky suddenly


    changed his mind was that he had once promised Valeria to make the Flower Fief benefit a lot in


    exchange for her agreeing to his ns. So, now that a rare opportunity presented itself, he thought that


    it might be a way to fulfill his promise to her.


    "What? Me, a sessor? Don''t joke around. I have no intention of taking that role..." Valeria


    immediately dismissed the idea, a bit frightened of even thinking about it. After all, being a leader of a


    fief was nothingpared to being a leader of the entire Shura Race. She thought that she would


    never be capable of taking on such a huge responsibility.


    "Ha-ha! Why are you being too serious and gloomy? I was just kidding. Even though we may not


    be the sessor, it will still be very advantageous for us to pass the challenges in the Ghostly


    Demon Land. There is a huge chance that we are going to be promoted to be royal members. If


    that happens, it will be beneficial for the Flower Fief. Don''t you think?" Rocky borated what he was


    really thinking.


    "We can be royal members?" Valeria was a bit stunned as she repeated what Rocky said.


    "Yes, Odin is right. Once you pass the training inside the Ghostly Demon Land and help Princess La


    be the sessor, then you are definitely going to be promoted and be royal members. It


    also means that the Ghost Fief and Flower Fief will receive generous benefits!" Gilbert affirmed.


    "I see. But I am not really after those things right now. I just want to—" "That''s it, sir. Both I and Valeria


    will go."


    Before Valeria could finish her sentence, Rocky already butted in. He knew that Valeria was kind of


    emotional right now, so he tried to redirect the conversation as soon as possible.


    "Okay then. I will draw up a list of other warriors that will apany you and hand it over to Princess


    Later on. She will make the final call on who will go with her in the Ghostly Demon Land."


    Then, Gilbert turned to Valeria and said, "Valeria, you can go back first. I just have something to


    discuss with Odin in private."


    Without any objection, Valeria just nodded and eventually left.


    As soon as Valeria was gone, Gilbert asked Rocky with a serious expression, "Odin, let me be blunt.


    Has your friend''s army already retreated from the Shura Race?"


    "Yes. He has already achieved his goal. Prince Zain has withdrawn his army and the human army was


    able to recuperate. It''s just what he wanted. By the way, he wanted me to thank you on his behalf,"


    Rocky replied very naturally.


    "During the meeting, it was revealed to us that this friend of yours is from an alien world. Is that right?"


    Gilbert asked, trying to confirm if the information was urate.


    "Yes, he came from an alien world." Rocky surmised that the royal family must have already found out


    a lot about his identity as Basil, so he had no reason to hide this fact from Gilbert.


    "Then, how did youe to know each other? I am very curious about that." Gilbert continued to


    probe, just wanting to clear out these vague details.


    "He saved my life before. So, I can say that to some degree, he''s like my savior." Rocky made up a


    fabricated backstory and continued, "Before I met my master, I stumbled in the border of the human


    race and was attacked by humans. I actually almost died, but fortunately, Basil saved my life. In order


    for me to survive, he also gave me some treasures and even a method to cultivate my spiritual power.


    It was thanks to him that I am still here today."


    "I see. Do you know the extent of his strength?" Gilbert asked. It seemed that he was really very


    interested in Basil


    "I''m afraid I don''t know either," Rocky responded, shaking his head.


    "Well, your friend has been giving the royal family a lot of headaches. But it was all thanks to him that


    Prince Zain failed on invading the human race. Otherwise, the king would have already chosen him as


    the sessor, and Princess La would not even have the chance topete." Although Gilbert was


    also a member of the royal family, it was just natural that he prioritized his own interests. He chose to


    support Princess La, knowing that her leadership would be the best for the Ghost Fief. After all, if


    Zain became the king of the Shura Race, it was most likely that he would dere a dictatorial


    leadership, making the nine fiefs mere puppets.


    In fact, even before, Rocky had already seen through Gilbert''s mind, so he knew that his n would


    turn exactly in the direction that he expected.


    However, getting the chance to enter the Ghostly Demon Land was something that he did not expect.


    He was still confused as to why the king suddenly made this decision, and he spected that


    something bigger was brewing in their midst.


    Before long, Rocky was able to confirm his hunch.


    A dayter, while Rocky was cultivating beside theke, a golden light suddenly descended from the


    sky and enveloped him. The next moment, he disappeared from the area without a trace.


    Then, when he opened his eyes, he found himself in Mika''s blossom garden. However, she was


    nowhere to be found.


    "Madam? I know that you summoned me here. What can I do for you?" Rocky asked while looking


    around. He was not sure if Mika could hear him from where she was.


    Then, out of nowhere, Mika''s sweet voice echoed, "I just received the news about a sudden


    announcement from the king. He allowed Godly Geniuses to enter the Ghostly Demon Land?"


    "Yes, that is correct. Is this not a secret arrangement of yours?" Rocky asked. He actually assumed that


    the deities were behind this because only superior beings could have influenced the king to do such a


    drastic change.


    "No, of course not!" Mika immediately answered.


    "Really? So, this was just the king''s own decision? He would go so far as to choose the best candidate


    to inherit the throne?" Rocky asked, rather surprised at Mika''s unexpected response.


    "I am actually worried about the same thing. I do not see the king doing this on his own. I can only


    assume that someone must be behind this..." Mika said as hints of anxiety could be heard from her


    voice.

    "Who is it then?" Of course, Rocky was certain that they were not dealing with an ordinary person.


    "I believe you are going to the Ghostly Demon Land, right?" Mika asked, her tone suddenly


    bing serious.


    "Yes, I am."


    "I have another task for you this time, and the result may affect the safety of the Holy-Evil World.


    Therefore, I''m afraid that failure is not an option," Mika sternly warned.


    "Go ahead. I am listening."


    "I''m sure you''ve already heard that the Ghostly Demon Land is no ordinary ce. It was where the


    ancestors of the Shura Race sealed the ghostly demons, as well as their leader. Phillip''s soul was


    sealed in the Demon Sealing Pce inside the Ghostly Demon Land. In fact, the ancestors of the


    Shura Race only knew that Phillip was the master of the ghostly demons. However, the truth is that he


    was actually a famous great demon who existed in the Holy-Evil World. Before he was sealed by the


    members of the Shura Race, he first fought the deities, and he was seriously injured in that battle. After


    that, he fled to the Shura Continent, together with his cohorts, creating chaos throughout the continent


    and turning it into a living hell. Since the creatures of the Holy-Evil World could not just directly


    interfere, we had to find a powerful race that could fight against Phillip. Hence, the Holy-Evil World


    chose the ancestors of the Shura Race and taught them numerous powerful secret techniques to


    defeat the great demon. It was also the reason why the Shura Race suddenly rose to power and


    became a superior race. With our help, the ancestors of the Shura Race lived up to the expectations


    and finally sealed Phillip''s soul, as well as the ghostly demons. Afterward, peace eventually returned to


    the continent..." Mika revealed, recounting the unknown ancient history of the Shura Continent.
