Chapter 1038 1038. Rebels

"You want to raid the Royal Academy?!" Flying Demon shouted when he heard what June had in mind.

Noah had taken her away from the seabed, and the Demons had returned to the island with them. They sat on the floor of the destroyed castle now, and a few jugs of wine stood between the two couples.

"The Royals have developed a drug that improves the st.u.r.diness of the centers of power," June said as she shot an annoyed glance at Noah. He was filling her body with dark matter to prevent another outburst of energy, but his heavy consciousness made June feel uneasy.

June had explained her second option to Noah and the Demons. The Elbas family had studied the ancestors' compound for centuries by then, and it had created many exceptional items by reverse-engineering its structure.

One of them was a potion that increased the st.u.r.diness of the centers of power by fusing magical beasts' features into their structure. Its effects replicated the transformation on limited areas of the body, improving its overall functioning.

June's Perfect Circuit would become able to bear her higher energy in that way. The only problem was that the Elbas family kept all their prototypes and recent creations in a restricted area. Only the members of the Elbas bloodline had access to them.

As for turning her into a hybrid, Noah couldn't. June's individuality was a big issue, and she would feel in debt to her lover forever, which was an even greater problem.

"She has the expertise to break the defensive formations," Noah said once he finished applying a layer of dark matter around the cores and weak spots of the Perfect Circuit. June had pointed them before, so his work had been thorough.

June had chosen an old book full of teachings on the formation field as a reward from Shandal's dimension. Unknowingly to the Royals, her expertise had grown immensely, and her unique position made her aware of the defenses in place around the restricted areas of the new Academy.

"You forget one big problem," Dreaming Demon said when she understood the whole situation. "What stops King Elbas from appearing and killing you on the spot?"

June bit her lower lip at that question. King Elbas was the only reason why she didn't use the second option as her main strategy. The threat of the strongest powerhouse in the world was something that she couldn't ignore just because she was desperate.

It was better to try her luck against the magical beasts. Even with awful odds, she had more chances of succeeding there than in getting past King Elbas.

The Demons and June stared at the bottom of their empty cups as they pondered about the matter. She didn't have many choices. She could either jump into a deadly mission or rot at her current level forever.

"I can get him out of the scene for a while," Noah eventually said, and the questioning eyes of the three experts went to him.

Countless experts had tried to set up meetings with him to ask about the Kesier Ape spotted during his return. The best inscription master in the world would be interested in the topic too.

As for how he planned to make King Elbas leave the surface, that was the easy part. Noah only needed to lie.

The group had to solve one problem before devoting all their attention to June. The forces deployed in those Mortal Lands were planning a revolt, and an army with three rank 6 Seven-headed Hydras was waiting to invade.

Noah even linked the origin of the revolution to some faction of the Elbas family now. After all, June had just confirmed that the Royals had made significant advancements in that field. Their discoveries could be behind the sudden appearance of hybrids from the bottom of the sea.

Of course, June wouldn't join Noah and the Demons in that mission. She had to remain put until they solved the situation and returned to the main world.

Noah and the Demons built a large cave in the seabed and used a few simple inscriptions to keep the water outside. They even had separate areas, so both couples could have intimate moments and cultivate in peace.

The group had decided to refrain from charging at the pack to study the situation. They had to prepare a battle plan anyway, and they had taken the chance to see if Noah's hypotheses held some ground.

If rebel forces were behind the sudden invasion, someone would eventually instruct the hybrids about their new task. Waiting there for something to happen didn't hurt anyone as long as the pack didn't move.

Dreaming Demon was in charge of a.n.a.lyzing the situation. Her individuality allowed her consciousness to spread farther than Noah's awareness. Moreover, he was busy meditating and catching up with June.

His mind and body were amazing, and he had yet to explore their full potential. Still, he had the time to focus on his techniques now, and his creation surpa.s.sed its old level since June was there.

Noah focused mostly on improving the spells required for his techniques, namely the Shadow Copy and the Merging spell. They were the cores of his offensive and movement, so he had to make them suitable for his new physical strength.

He even pondered about his elements from time to time. He needed only light to complete his full mastery, but Daniel's individuality was far different from his.

Only a month pa.s.sed before something happened, and Noah didn't manage to improve even when using the Divine Deduction technique.

"Someone is coming," Dreaming Demon warned the group with her consciousness, and the three of them left the cave to move toward the pack. June remained behind because she had to abstain from using her centers of power.

The trio reached the pack silently, hidden by Dreaming Demon's mental waves. A rank 5 cultivator appeared in their vision, and she descended through the dark waters to near the hybrids.

The woman wore a golden armor and held a long wand in her hand. A s.h.i.+ning red crystal stood on top of her inscribed item, and its light forced the creatures to lower their heads. Even the three hydras didn't dare to look at her directly.

Noah and the Demons exchanged a glance, and Dreaming Demon's mental waves expanded, affecting the waters and spreading until they reached the expert.

The woman lost her balance for a moment before her expression became dull. Then, she started to walk toward the trio, uncaring that some creatures had lifted their heads after her departure.

Once she regained her consciousness, she found three pairs of cold eyes fixed on her.

The woman belonged to the Elbas family, but her expression lit up in joy after seeing Noah, and she began to speak before the trio could start questioning her. "So it's true! You are the protector of the revolutions! Have you come to help us rebelling?"
