I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means Chapter 1199 - 693: The Assailant

Lonely Mountain City,

The fiery atmosphere of the Fiery Fire Festival continues, and the dwarves are indulging in the exquisite wines.

Although the Dwarf Kingdom is sowhat exclusive, Lonely Mountain City still has a number of outsiders.

Of course, humans make up a considerable portion.

Many humans co to Drum Mountain City, bringing a variety of exotic wines.

For the dwarves who don’t particularly chase after material pleasures, the wines are the most welcod.

Even though ale is still the dwarves’ favorite drink, they wouldn’t turn down the chance to experience different flavors.

And the dwarves are the most willing to spend money on this, so the profits from transporting wines are the highest.

In Lonely Mountain City, there are several human-run taverns that are quite popular.

Thus, during the Fiery Fire Festival, human figures can occasionally be seen mingling among the dwarves.

They are also quite interested in the celebrations of the Dwarf Clan.

Kelleb feels the sa.

Having been busy for days without any significant results left him a bit frustrated.

Fortunately, the Fiery Fire Festival ca along, and he’s planning to experience the dwarves’ ale.

He’s going to the tavern he intended to visit last ti.

Only now it’s dayti, so he shouldn’t encounter attacks, right?

That Legendary Day Elf has not appeared since that incident.

Even though he and Richie have found several Evil God believers’ hideouts, they have found no related clues.

This has left Richie sowhat indecisive.

Wondering if his assumptions were wrong, and that the Legendary Day Elf was indeed sent by the Elf Kingdom.

Kelleb believes this possibility is very low, but he has no way to provide evidence.

Thus, this matter can only continue as it is, without discovering new clues, it might remain stagnant here.

Sigh~

Kelleb shook his head.

Just having beco a Legend not long ago, he encounters such things, which leaves Kelleb quite vexed.

However, it’s obvious that this issue is not sothing one or two Legends can solve.

Shaking his head, Kelleb temporarily puts these botherso thoughts aside.

Now, it’s ti to relax!

In fact, Kelleb quite enjoys fine wines.

Or rather, no Divine Officer of the War God Church dislikes fine wines.

And Kelleb actually prefers the ale of the Dwarf Kingdom.

Compared to those transported by trading caravans, from all sorts of exotic wines from the eastern Fanor Continent, Kelleb feels the dwarves’ brewed ale retains the purest malt aroma.

Rich and flavorful, lingering aftertaste!

With that thought, Kelleb heads towards the tavern he rembers.

At that mont, a sudden change occurred!

In the corner of a small alley, at the dim corner of the wall, an imperceptible Shadow quietly stealthed.

Ordinarily, just an interplay of light and dust, yet now it seed to be awoken by so indescribable strength, starting to slither slowly.

Like an unusual awakening from slumber, each expansion and contraction brought with it a peculiar rhythm.

Without Kelleb noticing, the Shadow suddenly erupted with unprecedented speed.

Its volu expanded at a remarkable speed, and in a flash transford into a gigantic, unfathomable Abyssal maw.

Within the giant maw ford by this Shadow, it was pitch black, exuding a chilling, horrifying aura.

Kelleb was yet to sense anything amiss.

His footsteps were light, possibly his mind was still imrsed in previous thoughts, completely unaware of the impending upheaval.

At that instant, the Abyssal maw suddenly opened wide, with a thunderous motion swallowed Kelleb whole.

Everything occurred so suddenly that Kelleb didn’t even have ti to react before being tightly wrapped by the eerie Shadow, vanishing without a trace.

After engulfing Kelleb, the Shadow slowly retracted, eventually reverting to the seemingly harmless corner Shadow.

No one around noticed the transformation that occurred here.

...

What!?

Everything happened too fast, Kelleb had no ti to respond.

Kelleb’s consciousness gradually awoke amidst the chaos, only to find himself in an unimaginable alternate dinsion.

His surroundings were no longer Lonely Mountain City, but an eerie domain woven from Shadows.

He tried to move his steps but felt each step trod upon nothingness, echoing hollow and heavy footsteps.

This Shadow Space seed alive, breathing and slithering, instilling Kelleb with a certain indescribable sense of oppression.

Looking up, the eye’s reach was limited to just beyond ten ters ahead, beyond which lay deep, unknowable darkness, seemingly harboring countless secrets and dangers.

Nurous Shadows circled around Kelleb, entwining, at tis reverting to a lifeless darkness.

He could sense the malice and surveillance embedded in these Shadows, as if countless eyes lay hidden in the dark, silently observing his every move.

Kelleb was overco with an inexplicable sense of danger, yet he was aware, at this mont he must remain calm, seeking a thod to escape this bizarre space.

He began to ticulously observe the surrounding environnt, striving to find any possible clues or exit.

However, this Shadow Space seed a perfect cage, no matter his efforts, he couldn’t find any clues or hints.

Just as Kelleb prepared to unleash all his strength, attempting to break through this Space, a voice suddenly erged.

"Are you Kelleb, the Legendary Priest of the War God Church?"
