Today is destined to be a day written into the annals of history.
The commoners and slaves of the Laine Langduo City-States will never forget this day.
An individual carrying calamity, commanding thunder and hurricanes, like a god, took action in fury against the atrocities of an Extraordinary, and wiped out almost all the Extraordinary families on the island.
The harbor was enveloped in a sky-darkening Black Tide.
They witnessed with their own eyes that god-like man rcilessly beheading all the invading nobles.
"Oh god of calamity... You are the greatest savior..."
A slave wept bitterly, wailing aloud.
No one knows what inhumane lives they lived before, which couldn’t even be called human existence.
Now, these families are finally nearly extinct.
The joy in their hearts reached the point where they no longer clung to re survival.
Even if Rogel and the external Black Tide were to devour or destroy Laine Langduo, they would have no regrets.
"Rogel, my good captain, what good deeds have you done this ti?"
At this mont, the crew of the Gelin also arrived and were stunned by the scene.
However, they weren’t shocked by Rogel’s slaughter.
They understood Rogel’s character well, and if these people were dead, it was probably well-deserved.
What shocked them was that Rogel could fight against so many Extraordinary alone.
And there was Heisatan... oh, that made sense then.
"Lord Rogel..."
Fonado was already stunned, even stopping his thoughts.
Chelegen, who had stolen the Secret Treasure from the family to co help Rogel, was dumbfounded by the sight.
"You..."
He was too shocked to speak.
He simply couldn’t believe that Rogel could single-handedly slaughter all the Extraordinary of the entire Laine Langduo.
You’re so powerful, you make look foolish!
Even though many of these were his and Fonado’s relatives.
But Chelegen felt no sorrow for their deaths, instead a sense of satisfaction.
After all, he and Fonado’s parents had long since died, precisely because of these "relatives."
"Avenge them?"
Rogel’s gaze fell on him.
"Avenge?" Chelegen denied imdiately upon hearing, unable to suppress a smile: "How could I? You’ve shattered this damned prison and shackle, I’m too delighted to even co up for air."
But soon, his smile gradually vanished.
"... However, while the prison and chains are broken, the cells remain, and they will inevitably grow back..."
Chelegen sighed.
Is it a joyous thing that the Extraordinary families are gone from Laine Langduo?
Of course, it is.
But what after they were overthrown?
Upon hearing the news, other island families would arrive like vultures and hyenas, madly feasting on Laine Langduo.
Ultimately, if no other forces intervene, the situation in Laine Langduo would remain unchanged.
Just as Chelegen said.
As long as they haven’t stepped out of the "prison," chains, and shackles will regrow, endlessly...
Rogel smiled lightly upon hearing this.
"... Then step out of the prison."
He glanced deeply at Chelegen before turning to look at the commoners and slaves below.
Then, his body slowly ascended, wrapped in thunder and hurricanes, soaring into the sky in everyone’s gaze.
The commoners and slaves below stood in dumbfounded amazent.
This... truly is... a god!
Thud!
Many even uncontrollably knelt down.
Rogel slightly bowed his head, looking down at everyone, and spoke softly.
His throat slightly pale, utilizing the power of Dragon Transformation, allowing his voice to reach almost every corner of Laine Langduo.
"I am the Priest under the Master of the Black Tide, wielding calamity."
"Beyond Laine Langduo is my master, who embodies Mystery and Fear, yet also symbolizes fairness and justice."
"From today onwards..."
"There will no longer be the Laine Langdon Clan monopolizing Extraordinary Knowledge in Laine Langduo. The Black Tide will take over this place."
"Holding the Black Tide Mark, reciting the na of the Black Tide and offering sacrifices or devotion, you can gain Extraordinary Knowledge and power."
"Whether you believe or devote yourselves, the Black Tide will be with you all!"
After speaking, Rogel paused.
He looked towards the distant harbor.
At that mont, all in Laine Langduo heard a peculiar roar, seemingly the acknowledgnt from the Abyss.
Accompanied by this was the scattering of countless black streaks of light.
Plop.
One Black Tide Mark after another fell before the commoners and slaves.
They stared in a daze, unable to believe what’s happening before them and what they heard.
Is this... real?
Tears unconsciously welled up in their eyes and flowed down their cheeks.
Rogel looked at Chelegen, using the Power of Faith to transmit a ssage to him.
"Can you handle being the City Lord?"
Chelegen paused upon hearing this, glanced at Rogel in the sky, and after a mont of silence, spoke: "As long as fairness and justice can be ensured, and also..."
Rogel chuckled softly upon hearing: "I know what you want to say, don’t worry."
"Rest assured in becoming the City Lord, countless human Extraordinaries will set sail from here..."
After speaking, he ended the transmission.
Turning back, he once again looked down at the commoners and slaves.
Rogel slightly raised his hand.
The commoners and slaves kneeling on the ground were astonished to find that their knees were being lifted by so force.
"The families monopolizing power made you kneel... The Master of the Black Tide wants you to stand up!"
"As the children of the Black Tide, you will possess the equal rights bestowed by the Master of the Black Tide, with no distinctions of rank or status, and no need to kneel before anyone."
