The expression on his face reminded Louis of the scene when he was chased by a dog as a child and ran away in fear.
The image was too beautiful to mock for a mont.
Suddenly, a bright green light descended from the sky, and chains erged from the void, sealing the surrounding space.
The sweeping storm collided with an invisible wall and was instantly trapped within.
The sky erupted in brilliance, and suddenly a green phoenix descended from the heavens.
The blazing green light filled the surrounding area in an instant.
Louis watched as Fox's expression shifted from fear to joy, and then without hesitation, he ran forward, jumping up and down around the chains' periter.
Carefully observing.jpg
Louis's eyes were filled with confusion.
Co on, this is a space storm!
A typical exemplary professional, without so ans, gets swept into it without any chance of survival. How dare you be here scrutinizing it?
And that's not even the funniest part.
When Fox found himself unable to move through the chains enveloped in green flas, he blurted out a statent that left Louis unable to keep a straight face:
"Seeing the Jade Phoenix Mage fill the space rift makes dying worth the price of admission."
Louis: ???
Where on earth did this weird little fish co from, charging fearlessly and cluelessly? I suggest you go cao next door.
So the young Fox stayed there observing for a long ti.
Fox's mory space seed to hit the fast-forward button, as days turned into nights, and in the blink of an eye, the erald fire finally slowly dissipated as the sun rose for the third ti.
An old mage with a pale face walked out.
"Is that your teacher?"
Fox nodded: "This is where I officially transitioned to beco a Jade Phoenix Mage."
In front of Louis.
The unknown old mage completed the job-hunting ceremony for Fox and then brought out the erald fire, asking if he wanted to inherit his will.
Without any surprise, the young Fox chose to refuse.
The surrounding ti flow accelerated once again.
Louis saw Fox returning to Saint Louis Academy.
He saw his graduation thesis shock the entire faculty of the academy.
He saw him rise like a cot, then develop and grow under everyone's astonished gaze.
He beca the most dazzling star among their batch of students.
He joined the secret organization Jade Phoenix Alliance, embarking on a protagonist-like journey akin to mbers of the Tarot Association in the Master of Mystery.
He was not the nice guy people usually understood.
On the contrary, Fox seed to have a bit of a rogue personality.
Occasionally, when he took rotational tasks at the Jade Phoenix Alliance, he would go out of town and ss around everywhere.
Louis even saw him holding a petite Half-Elf beauty.
Before Louis could properly criticize him, the scene whooshed past.
Fox's soul body coughed twice and said:
"What are you looking at? Who wasn't young and reckless in the early years?"
Louis was so embarrassed his toes could dig a three-bedroom apartnt.
The narrative continued.
Fox's life, except for the severe blows in the early days, was almost perfect in the middle.
The more Louis learned, the stranger his perception of Fox beca.
He really didn't seem like the hero people typically imagined.
In the mory space, the ti flow was getting faster and faster.
Louis watched as Fox gradually aged from youth, increasingly resembling the soul body of Fox he sees now.
Fox beca more mature and stable.
From the once reckless, he gradually beca a reliable mage.
He began to fulfill the duties of a Jade Phoenix Mage, participating in battles against evil more frequently than before.
On a random occasion, he was discovered by Grand Speaker Tom.
The Grand Speaker had been alive for many years and logically shouldn't associate with soone of Fox's age.
But Tom had a young heart, and coupled with Fox being carefree,
they eventually beca familiar through repeated interactions.
During an operation to dispel the Serpent of the Dust, Fox demonstrated amazing courage in battle.
Faced with the massive destruction caused by the serpent's materialization, he seized a critical opportunity, instantly breaking into the battlefield.
With the descending phantom of a green phoenix and the skyrocketing flas, his body and the Serpent of the Dust were torn apart together.
At that mont, he truly had a bit of a heroic deanor.
The Grand Speaker was amazed at Fox's decisiveness.
He possessed an extraordinary quality—a rare person who could make the most reasonable judgnt according to his needs at critical monts.
He was decisively enough.
Thus, the Grand Speaker enjoyed spending ti with him even more, hinting at a burgeoning close cross-generational friendship.
The ti flow continued to accelerate.
In a blink, Fox's visage was increasingly closer to the reality of what Louis sees now.
The soul body standing beside Louis suddenly said to him:
"Are you ready?"
Louis asked in confusion, "What preparation?"
At this ti, the scene had already shifted to Tino City.
Thunder and lightning filled the sky.
A strong wind blowing from the Fallen Star Sea carried dark clouds, painting the entire sky black.
He heard the wind howling fiercely.
The air was filled with an unsettling threat.
Fox had never seen such a scene, as if the entire world was lanting.
Every corner of the city, above and below ground, he clearly felt an imminent death threat.
"Rember this day, Year 14435 of the Star Calendar."
Fox, standing beside him, spoke with a voice as loud as thunder.
In Louis's incredulous gaze, the entire Tino City was engulfed in darkness.
Thunder and lightning filled the sky, but sohow, Louis felt the thunder was like soone roaring in anger.
Louis dazedly watched the apocalyptic scene and instinctively said:
"What is going on?"
Fox did not answer him, only saying in a deep voice:
"This is my first ti seeing our Emperor Ense, an incredibly powerful ruler."
Thunder roared incessantly; amidst the blinding white light, the entire world spun in chaos.
Everything turned decayed and pale.
It was as if the ruins worn down by endless ti, leaving only black, white, and gray.
At this mont, Louis suddenly rembered.
"Fallen Shadow Nether Realm?"
Fox looked at him in surprise:
"So you've been to the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm already!"
Louis said in shock:
"Is this the day when the emperor was conspired against, leading to the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm duplicating the emperor's shadow?"
Fox suddenly turned his head and frowned at Louis:
"What kind of nonsense? How could the Prince of the Empire just tell you sothing like this?"
It was then that Louis rembered he was here as Mayer.
In theory, he should not have known so many things.
Louis pondered for a mont, and finally took off his mask:
"Ideally, Mayer, as a businessman, shouldn't know these matters."
Beneath the mask, Louis's true face was revealed.
He blinked and said:
"But I am the Prince of the Empire."
Fox's spirit fluctuated, clearly startled by Louis's actions.
In the end, he said sowhat helplessly:
"You youngsters really know how to play."
Louis laughed, "Oh, no, no, not as much as you, sir."
But there was no smile on Fox's face, he just calmly said:
"Due to interference by forces other than the Four Abyssal Deities, the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm locked onto Tino City of the past."
"A large number of lives were sacrificed by Evil God Cultists, trying to invert reality with the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm."
"As a mage deeply versed in spatial studies, I was also invited to the scene."
This was Louis's first ti seeing the foundation of Ense.
Thousands of high-level mages ascended into the sky, exhibiting amazing warfare qualities in front of Louis, considering their usual pursuit of individuality.
They accepted unified control and used the sa type of magic.
When one person cast a Fireball Technique, it caused a scene like a teor shower descending.
The mbers of the White Crow Legion descended systematically upon this land, and everywhere one looked, there were people everywhere.
The white crow emblem of the White Crow Legion.
The roaring lion emblem of the Royal Guard.
And so legion emblems Louis had never seen before erged on this day.
Countless crimson lights shot up into the sky.
Almost dyeing the sky of the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm red.
Suddenly.
Louis looked towards the sky, stunned.
Countless lightning bolts seed to cover the entire sky, the deafening sound causing his heart to slightly twitch.
Because he saw that the sky of the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm had cracked open in the roaring thunder light.
What the hell is this?
Did the emperor shatter the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm?
Where did this beast co from?
What?
You say this is my father-in-law?
Father-in-law above, I offer my respects.
