Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes-Chapter 598 - 116: Decision

Due to Anvis’s series of actions earlier, the Nightmare Spirit King, who was supposed to be ended by Fiona, was preemptively ended by him instead.

Logically, such an act of prophesizing first and then actively changing destiny, which caused a huge deviation in Fiona’s original destiny, should have resulted in a severe backlash from the powers of destiny against Anvis.

However, since he was already involved before the prophecy, and Fiona needed an enemy to stimulate her own power awakening, in order to achieve the effect of this burst of the Power of Destiny.

As a result, Anvis, the direct cause of the major changes in the original plot, was once again watched by the Net of Destiny and was honored to upgrade from an important supporting role to a major villain, now arranged by destiny, to be defeated by a young girl in the future.

It’s truly a case of the Dragon Slayer turning into an Evil Dragon.

However, Anvis has gotten used to this kind of plot development.

Although his original intention was only to protect himself, his family, and possibly the safety of the world, outsiders who do not know the truth always misunderstand his actions, thinking he is a source of chaos, a spreader of evil.

Anvis feels helpless about these opinions.

When you often walk by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet? Prophets who play with destiny also tend to encounter various unpredictable consequences.

For now, he has no ability to change others’ views of him; he can only silently prove himself through actions, making sure he is still on the path of justice.

Fortunately, one’s character is not something that can be awarded, otherwise he might have to establish a manor just to display his trophies.

After sensing the current situation of the world, Anvis lets the Four Nightmares go cause trouble and play the villain roles well. He himself reverts to his identity as the Trialist "White Rabbit", returning to Fiona’s side as a Justice Partner.

Considering the influence of his current form, Anvis keeps the part of him that had become the King of Nightmare Spirits in the original Nightmare small world.

Due to the severe mental impact of the gathering of the dark side in the Inheritance Land, Anvis eventually gave up the path of his main body becoming the King of Nightmare Spirits.

Instead, he used a special avatar to substitute for his main body, receiving the power and authority of the King of Nightmare Spirits, and used it to bear the dark side of the entire Inheritance Land.

Normally, this avatar remains in a dormant state, and stays in contact with him through the medium of Ancient Secret Scripture. It only awakens when needed to fight external enemies.

While heading back towards the palace in the Incredible Country, Anvis also contemplates how to use this situation to train Fiona’s ability to face hardships independently.

In his prior observations of destiny, once the Trialists’ task of exploring the New World ends, due to destiny’s arrangement, Fiona will directly gain the last two Authority Fragments at the settlement.

Afterwards, she defeats the Nightmare Spirit King and successfully gains the ownership of this Inheritance Land, officially breaking through to the Seventh Rank.

In other words, Fiona actually has enough ability to resolve this trouble; it is just temporarily unmanifested due to his intervention.

Now, he needs to find a way to make the girl burst seed as originally destined.

If all else fails, he’ll just ’die’ once more.

.........

Meanwhile, in the Incredible Country, numerous Trialists are busy.

Everyone saw the earlier great battle, but because the level of the fight was too high, they could not intervene, and could only watch from start to finish.

With the outcome of the battle revealed, the mysterious strong figure self-destructed and died, the Nightmare Spirit King was severely injured and fled, and the Four Nightmares spontaneously pursued to kill, now all the strong enemies have left this world, leaving behind only the other scattered Nightmare Spirits.

And the operational rules of the Inheritance Land reminded them that they had received interim settlement rewards, but the strategy task for this Dream Realm had not yet been fully completed. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Seizing this rare gathering opportunity, numerous Trialists formed teams and began to hunt down the wandering Nightmare Spirits extensively to acquire the rewards of the Inheritance Land.

As most of the remaining powerful Nightmare Spirits were expelled and hunted, the fusion speed of the Inheritance Land with this world also began to accelerate.

Currently, the progress of the Inheritance Land swallowing this world has reached about eighty percent.

At the current pace, converted to the time within this Dream Realm, there are about three days left until the complete swallowing.

Usually, this task of occupying a new world would be settled after the world is completely swallowed by the Inheritance Land.

At this time, in a Nightmare Swamp to the northwest of the Incredible Country, a Nightmare Spirit, appearing as a large black tree and exuding the aura of a Seventh Rank High Level, was slowly swaying.

A purple-black fog enveloped its body, with a large amount of shattered white bones scattered at its feet, giving it an indescribably eerie appearance.

"Attack!"

Suddenly, following a low shout, a great amount of Magic Power Radiance lit up around the dark Nightmare Spirit. Countless light spears, shimmering with a dream-like aura, impaled the trunk of the large tree like a sieve.

In a terrifying scream, the massive black ancient tree could not sustain itself and fell, bleeding scarlet blood like a living creature, then slowly turned into thick black smoke and dissipated, leaving behind numerous fragments emitting various glows.

Watching the complete dispersal of the Nightmare Spirit, the numerous Trialists who launched the attack sighed with relief, stepped out from their hiding spots, and began to distribute the drops.

"The Inheritance Land may be facing a change in weather, the new King of Nightmare Spirits will become even stronger. We perhaps should not continue collecting Authority Fragments, and instead, consider escaping from here sooner..."

Casually sitting on a large protruding bone from the ground, one of the five Trialist leaders, appearing as a hound in a suit named "Dream Ferryman," watched everyone distributing the fragments and spoke somewhat pessimistically.

"I think, this is our only real chance to eliminate the threat of the King of Nightmare Spirits!"

But before he could finish, another one of the five leaders, who appeared like a griffin named "Flashing Dream," shook his head, disputing his opinion.

"I propose, after the task in this world ends, we take the initiative, go search for the whereabouts of the King of Nightmare Spirits and try to eliminate it before it can recover!

Escaping is useless, the King of Nightmare Spirits is a threat we must eliminate. Otherwise, once it gains control of all the Authority, it will be too late once it completely controls the Inheritance Land..."

The group had varying views regarding the earlier retreat of the King of Nightmare Spirits.

Some people are worried, thinking that no matter if it is the King of Nightmare Spirits who has the last laugh, or one of the Four Nightmares that successfully swallowed the King of Nightmare Spirits, it is not a good thing for them because the victor will inevitably become stronger.

Facing a stronger enemy, they have no hope of gaining the inheritance. It would be better to shift their targets sooner and find a way to escape this world.

Meanwhile, others believe this is their only chance to turn their fate around. Why not take advantage of the enemy’s weakness and actively go to defuse this ticking bomb?

They still have their own intentions. If they could hunt down the severely injured Nightmare Spirit King with the combined effort of all, they might hope to snatch the precious dropped Authority Fragments at the last moment and rise to great heights.

Looking at the groups with differing opinions, the Duchess Lina’s face unconsciously bore a touch of superiority.

At times like this, she increasingly realized her wisdom. After becoming a follower of Marquis Winter, whether it was securing a way to escape this world or finding a way to completely hunt down the King of Nightmare Spirits, she stood on invincible ground.
