Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes-Chapter 589 - 107: The Arrival of the King of Nightmare Spirits

Chapter 589: Chapter 107: The Arrival of the King of Nightmare Spirits

In these seven days, Anvis had once again made contact with Emily and used a doppelganger to return to the Yar Continent.

For those living on the continent, seven days was not a long time. For Professionals, this period was not even enough to master a new Combat Skill or complete a minor Magic experiment.

Neither the doppelgangers from Black Ring Commerce nor the Resistance Army experienced any special changes.

During this time, Anvis had specially arranged for some intelligence regarding the Olivendi Family to be gathered. It was learned that due to his disappearance, Duke Carrot had already set off to search for him and was presumably on his way here.

Anvis estimated the time elapsed since the incident, and with Fiona’s family Talisman as a guide, Duke Carrot should be arriving soon. It was uncertain, though, who would reach them first: him or the King of Nightmare Spirits.

....

In the depths of the Inheritance Land, there was a vast dark labyrinth suspended quietly in the Dream World, a place so lacking in light it resembled the void of space.

Thick Power of Nightmare converged into dark mists that flowed over its surface, intermittently flickering with an indescribable eerie luster from within the labyrinth’s corridors.

But now, seemingly stimulated by something, the flow of these mists began to speed up increasingly faster.

Eventually, at the core of the labyrinth, an enormous sphere glowing with a pale light appeared from the darkness. The surface of the sphere was covered with dense, brain cortex-like patterns, through which countless streaks of light flowed swiftly like electricity.

As time passed, a large crack formed at the apex of the sphere, and supported by a network of blood vessels and nerves, a giant eye with a black sclera and red pupil emerged, gazing into the dark depths ahead.

Initially, the depth of this eye was filled with violent and chaotic colors but slowly cleared up.

It was the King of Nightmare Spirits, and also Marquis Beixi.

’How long has it been since the last awakening?’ A thought flashed through its mind, and in the next instant, it derived the answer based on its own changes.

’A total of 63,200 nightmares have passed, and the Power of Nightmare has diminished by roughly fifteen percent since before the sleep, which is enough to exert Ninth Rank Strength.’

’It’s time to set off.’

Since the King of Nightmare Spirits was formed from the combination of countless Nightmare Spirits, this method resulted in a myriad of chaotic Nightmare Spirit consciousness remnants left within its body, constantly affecting its sanity.

This was also deliberately done by Marquis Beixi to facilitate easier control over it. Without a unified, strongest Will, he could easily control it with his own Ninth Rank power.

Now, suppressing the mess of Wills within the King of Nightmare Spirits, Marquis Beixi forcefully controlled the King to open a portal to the Dream Realm and headed in the direction of Fiona’s Dreamland.

In fact, what Lilith was unclear about was that the King of Nightmare Spirits could exert complete Ninth Rank power mainly because Marquis Beixi of the Ninth Rank was personally in control.

....

"Your Majesty the Queen! The most powerful enemy is about to arrive, please be spirited and prepare to repel the invaders!"

Inside the castle of the Fairy Tale World, Anvis in the form of a white rabbit faced Fiona, who was about to sneak out of the palace to play with little kitty Kate and little dragon Feiya, and put on a stern rabbit face.

"Ahem, Lord White Rabbit, haven’t we already made preparations in advance? Once the enemy arrives, we can directly land a heavy blow on them."

Caught sneaking off, Fiona tried to make an innocent expression. Her lake blue eyes blinked, hoping to persuade Anvis.

"Besides, you know, as long as I don’t leave this city, it’s all the same wherever I am."

"Meow-meow—" "Roar-roar—" (I support Her Majesty the Queen) *2

The kitten Kate and the little dragon Feiya also cried out, expressing their own support.

Recently, due to the erosion of the Inheritance Land, the power of the scepter the girl possessed had already decreased by a large portion, and the area of the sandbox representing the degree of control over the Dream Realm had drastically shrunk, leaving almost only the range of the Incredible Country.

However, at this point, the girl’s control permissions over the Dream Realm seemed to have dropped to the lowest point and no longer continued to decrease.

Anvis speculated that this should be due to the operating rules of the Inheritance Land.

No matter when, trialists will never face an absolutely certain death situation.

And as the proportion of the Inheritance Land’s devouring and fusion with this world deepens, the girl, as the master of the dream, will also be marked by the Inheritance Land, becoming a ’certified’ trialist.

"As the Queen of the Incredible Country, you should be more reserved..."

But during the argument, the two suddenly stopped speaking at the same time, with a sense of realization, and looked to one side.

In the sky to the northwest of the city, a gigantic pitch-black crack nearly spanning the entire sky abruptly tore through the blue sky and clouds like an oil painting.

From that crack, a deep and terrifying pressure rapidly spread.

A huge black labyrinth, that seemed like a nightmare, slowly drifted into this world from the crack, hovering in the sky. Rainbow-like dreamy colors of rule lightning swirled around its surface, but they were negated by its own terrifying power and rendered ineffective.

In the Incredible Country, facing the dark labyrinth in the sky whose size was nearly that of the entire city, even with the protection of the pale silver world rule shield, many small animal residents couldn’t help but shiver uncontrollably.

"Is that, the King of Nightmare Spirits?!"

Looking at the oppressive giant maze-like presence in the sky, the little girl drew a sharp breath, somewhat at a loss.

She could clearly feel the power level of that terrifying existence. It was a Ninth Rank, like her father, a peak existence wielding the power of rules.

"Your Majesty the Queen, please use the power of the rules to expel the enemy!"

Anvis also watched the true arrival of the enemy with a serious expression, but did not take any action immediately. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

As the sovereign of the Dream Realm, Fiona’s power here was actually stronger than his.

The only problem was that the girl had never engaged in any proper combat before, and now she had to face a Ninth Rank, which inevitably caused panic, a factor that is hard to overcome even with prior preparation.

"I... I will try my best."

Swallowing, the girl with lake-blue eyes stared at the enormous object in the sky, her hands somewhat panickedly gripping the scepter, tentatively communicating with the world rules, trying to expel it.

But unfortunately, the power of the King of Nightmare Spirits was not something the current scepter-lacking girl could shake.

At the same time, along with Fiona’s own fear, something intangible rose from her, merging into the body of the King of Nightmare Spirits, making the girl’s attack on it instantly much less effective.

Just like the Four Nightmares, the King of Nightmare Spirits is also an embodiment of the nightmare trait, and its symbol is [Fear].

This is the most primitive emotion left from the Ancient Times, born from the fear of various things, from which nightmares are born.

Facing the King of Nightmare Spirits, all living beings with fear in their hearts will have their own strength greatly suppressed.
