Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes-Chapter 597 - 115 Absorption and Control

Reflected on the polished mirror surface was a young man, his body exhibiting a translucent silvery-white color. A thick, ink-like blackness hovered by his waist.

However, Anvis found the young man’s face astonishing; it was not the face of his current body but rather closer to the appearance of his former Blue Star identity.

"How about it? Do you see it? They are different from us. In this mad world, only those of us who remain lucid are the true companions."

Watching Anvis’ actions, Despair Desius spoke calmly.

She wasn’t surprised by Anvis’s examination of himself; in her view, after encountering the real world, any bizarre actions from Anvis wouldn’t be strange.

"So, if I want to return... How should I do it within the Dream Realm?"

After looking around and gathering quite a bit of information, Anvis turned to Despair Desius to inquire about returning.

"Close your eyes, imagine leaves covering your sight falling, and then reopen your eyes."

Desius explained succinctly, and following her instructions, Anvis gave it a try, and indeed everything in his vision returned to normal.

"Mirror Man, your Excellency, are you alright?"

Seeing Anvis reappear, Lilith of Lust quickly checked on him to see if his mental state had been influenced by the Madness Desius.

"No need to worry, I am fine."

Anvis waved his hand, but his mind was still reflecting on the world he had just seen in that special state.

Desius believed that the entire world had fallen into madness, while Black Abyss believed that only Desius himself had succumbed to madness.

Anvis was non-committal about these two opinions.

Like an irregularly shaped sculpture, viewed from different angles, only one side of its form is seen.

And viewing the world from different angles also reveals different facets of it.

Perhaps Desius is mad, or perhaps it is the world that has gone mad, but that is not important; they are merely different perspectives.

To Anvis, the greatest gain from this experience was actually the new perspective provided by Desius.

As everyone knows, a person with a mental illness often sees more things.

"I can feel that you might be partly influenced by the mental state of Madness Desius, and this influence is almost irreversible; it’s best to stay away from him."

Black Abyss shook his head, after Anvis suddenly disappeared and then reappeared, he had a similar sickening sensation like Desius on him.

The brief episode ended, and Anvis and the others turned their attention back to the numerous Rule Fragments left behind after the death of the King of Nightmare Spirits.

As the strongest entity in the Inheritance Land, the King of Nightmare Spirits had left behind Authority Fragments from the first to the ninety-eighth, only missing the last two golden Authority Fragments.

Anvis unapologetically absorbed these Authority Fragments, instantly becoming the new strongest Nightmare Spirit. The remaining extra fragments were left for the Four Nightmares to pick from.

However, becoming the new King of Nightmare Spirits, Anvis also experienced the dilemma the former King of Nightmare Spirits faced.

Powerful strength brought even greater consumption, and the consumption required by the King of Nightmare Spirits was very special; he needed to absorb the fear from numerous beings of the Dream Realm to sustain his existence.

For Anvis, although he didn’t need to worry about the Fear Authority, what he faced instead was the loss of control over the dark side of the Dream Realm.

As the collective body of most of the dark side in the Inheritance Land, the death of the King of Nightmare Spirits triggered a chain reaction.

Without a host, these dark essences returned to the Inheritance World, and they have already started causing mutations throughout the world.

Now, Anvis had two options: either absorb these dark and negative traits himself, with the risk of affecting his own consciousness, or let them merge on their own and a new King of Nightmare Spirits could emerge from it.

Of course, the new King of Nightmare Spirits, lacking authority, would be much weaker than the previous one,

Soon, Anvis made a decision, he decided to try embracing these dark sides, reassembling a form, and inheriting the "King of Nightmare Spirits" passive Identity.

...

"Where on earth did Mr. White Rabbit go?"

Inside the Dream Castle, Fiona, looking at the bemused Kate and Feiya, had a hint of sadness in her lake-blue eyes.

Ever since the King of Nightmare Spirits was repelled, the White Rabbit ran off abruptly and completely disappeared without a trace.

She had tried to search for him, but he was nowhere to be found in the entire world.

With the departure of the White Rabbit, the girl instinctively felt as if something very important to her had gone away.

When the White Rabbit was around, she inexplicably felt very secure.

Fiona suddenly realized, this White Rabbit, whom she was very familiar with, seemed to have already taken up a very important place in her heart unknowingly.

But while thinking of the White Rabbit, she suddenly felt that those evil and bizarre beings had once again entered this world.

Originally, this job was always managed by the White Rabbit, but as her Authority increased, she could also sense their presence now.

As time passed, this world officially became part of the Inheritance Land, and her, as the Queen of the Dream Realm, became one of the Trialists in the Inheritance Land, but she still remained inseparably connected to this world.

Since the King of Nightmare Spirits was repelled, she successfully passed through her first exclusive trial task, receiving a lot of Rule Fragment rewards from the Inheritance Land.

Now, her Strength had far surpassed her previous state.

And, she also had a feeling that through merging with the world of "Fiona’s Dreamland," she seemed to tap into some special Rule powers that other trialists could not manipulate.

Upon detecting the enemy’s appearance, there was no time to keep testing her new abilities, Fiona immediately started to act; the Shield Rule reemerged, enveloping the city to protect it from the enemy’s Attack.

Although the White Rabbit disappeared, she had already mastered this ability to sense the anomalous beings approaching the world.

Meanwhile, the greatly missed White Rabbit, Anvis, had just returned to this world with the Four Nightmares.

He thought his return was low-key, but it was actually detected by Fiona.

"Yes, after I left, you continue the previous assault actions, don’t let those Trialists notice anything odd, prioritize maintaining your own safety..."

While assigning tasks to the Four Nightmares, Anvis went through the plans for what came next.

Having become the strongest Nightmare Spirit, he now sought to control the Inheritance Land completely in the shortest possible time.
