"Honey, should we aid His Majesty Philip? After all, this concerns our kingdom as well, since we are part of the Empire." Queen Matilda looked at King Richard with a serious expression. Her legs trembled as fear crept into her the mont the barrier was broken.
"Definitely. We must stop those criminals from doing as they please. Many innocent lives are at stake." King Richard nodded firmly and stood up from the sofa.
"Father, I’ll accompany you as well." Tristan Windfall, King Richard’s eldest son, stood up with a proud look. "It would be an honor to fight for the Empire. And I don’t want to miss this chance—this could be a great opportunity to gain fa and build connections."
Queen Matilda swallowed nervously at her son’s words. Worry took hold of her as she thought about the overwhelming power of their enemies.
King Richard turned to his son with a solemn expression. A storm of emotions swirled within him as he weighed his options. Should he allow Tristan to face the mbers of the Golden Skull, or should he keep him safely inside, away from the chaos?
After a mont of careful thought, King Richard sighed and gave a firm nod. "Fine. You may join the fight. However, you must be extrely cautious, and under no circumstances should you recklessly chase the enemy."
"Thank you, Father. Don’t worry, I’ll make you proud. I’ve been training for this mont." Tristan grinned, excitent gleaming in his eyes at the thought of the upcoming battle.
"Let’s go and greet the Emperor first. We will be fighting on his behalf." King Richard’s voice was steady, but his expression betrayed his unease.
They were about to face so of the most dangerous criminals in the world. Fighting them would not be easy, especially since they practiced Forbidden Magic—a powerful and unnatural force capable of imnse destruction.
Before King Richard and Tristan could leave the room, the sounds of battle echoed from ahead. The clash of tal and bursts of magic filled the air.
’I hope my son and husband return safely… Please, dear god, listen to my prayers and grant them your divine protection.’ Queen Matilda silently prayed, her heart heavy with worry.
Beside her, Concubine Aurelia also prayed for their safety. Though Tristan was not her biological son, he had always treated her as his real mother—and she, in turn, loved him as if he were her own.

"Die, you scum of the Golden Skull! Surrender your life to !" one of the Magic Knights roared, wielding a massive greatsword. He swung it down with deadly precision, aiming to behead a mber of the Golden Skull organization.
The blade glowed with a golden light, crackling with terrifying energy as it descended toward the enemy’s neck.
Clang!
At the last mont, the enemy blocked the strike with his short sword. Sparks flew as tal clashed against tal, but the force behind the attack was overwhelming. The impact sent the Golden Skull mber staggering backward, leaving him montarily speechless.
However, he quickly regained his composure, a wide grin spreading across his face.
"Well, well, you’ve got so strength to back up your words," he said, amusent lacing his tone. "Why don’t you join the Golden Skull? You could beco a ruler and have anything you desire. Why waste your talents living a lowly life?"
The masked man continued, his voice dripping with temptation. "Once you join our organization, we’ll grant you all the riches you could ever want—fa, fortune, even as many won as you desire. You’d be living the best life imaginable."
But despite the enticing offer, the Magic Knight remained unmoved. His eyes glead with unwavering pride.
"Don’t insult with such nonsense. I would never betray my holand for sothing so aningless. I would never stoop so low as to join a band of criminals like you."
He tightened his grip on his sword, his voice filled with righteous fury.
"Now die by my blade, you filthy scum! You have no right to live!"
With a battle cry, the Magic Knight unleashed a devastating slash toward his opponent.
Clang! Clang!
The two warriors clashed with superhuman speed, exchanging thousands of blows within minutes as they fought across the stadium.
BOOM!
Massive explosions erupted as their attacks collided, sending powerful shockwaves rippling through the entire arena.
anwhile, inside the VIP room, Ajex watched the battle unfold with an amused expression. He hadn’t expected to see so many powerful Magic Knights fighting for the Empire, risking their lives to protect its people from the Golden Skull organization.
"Young Master Ajex, aren’t you going to assist them in this fight? If you don’t join, the Golden Skull organization will successfully take the mythical treasure with them, and that would be a disaster for everyone!" Ajex’s caretaker said, her gaze fixed on him with curiosity, wondering what was going through his mind.
"Well, I’m just waiting for that young man to make his move. I want to see how he handles this situation. After all, he’s watching everything as we speak," Ajex replied a mont later, a mischievous grin spreading across his face.
’Let’s see how you deal with the Golden Skull organization. With their Forbidden Magic and that mythical dagger, it’s almost impossible to stop them,’ Ajex thought, his smile widening as he glanced at Yuan’s VIP room.
anwhile, Heidi and Veni were also eagerly awaiting Yuan’s next move, watching the battle unfold from the VIP room as they sipped on delicious red wine.
"Young Lady, do you think that young man will participate in this battle against the Golden Skull?" Veni asked, taking a sip of her drink while casting a sideways glance at Heidi.
"Hmm, that’s an interesting question," Heidi responded, her lips curving into an amused smile. "However, I don’t have an answer. He could join the battle—or perhaps he won’t. After all, becoming enemies with such a powerful criminal organization could be disadvantageous for him."
Your journey continues at .Côm
"For now, let’s just wait and see what happens. We don’t want to get involved; this situation could bring bad fortune to our clan," Heidi said with a sigh, leaning back on the sofa and holding her wine glass casually.
"I hope Emperor Philip manages to secure the treasure," Veni added, smiling as she continued to savor her wine. "If not, this Empire is dood."
"Indeed," Heidi nodded, a smile still on her face. "If the Golden Skull manages to take the treasure, they’ll surely declare war on the entire continent—and perhaps beyond."
anwhile, inside the VIP room, Daniel was waiting for Yuan’s response. The tension in the room grew thick, as no one spoke for an entire minute.
"Alright. I’ll take care of them if the situation gets out of hand," Yuan finally spoke, his calm voice imdiately putting Daniel at ease.
"R-Really?!" Daniel asked, his face lighting up with excitent and disbelief at how easily Yuan had agreed.
"Of course," Yuan nodded with a smile, casting a brief glance at Valeria and Vanessa. "After all, we’re family now."
Valeria smiled at Yuan before turning her attention to her nephew. With a stern expression, she said, "Now go and assist that useless brother of mine. He’s struggling against the leader of the group—what a disgrace to our ancestors!"
"I-I understand…!" Daniel stamred. Without wasting another second, he hurried out of the room. He knew that if he hesitated, his aunt would surely kick his ass.
Once Daniel left, Leah smiled softly at Yuan before making her way toward him. Without hesitation, she sat on his lap, her playful eyes locked onto his.
"So, when do you plan on taking that arrogant fool down? After all, I doubt the auction will continue after such a big incident." Her voice carried a teasing tone as she gently poked his nose.
Yuan chuckled, then pulled her closer, pressing his lips against hers. He kissed her deeply, his arms wrapping around her soft waist, drawing her body even closer.
Miss Zara, blushing furiously, quickly covered Little Zoe’s eyes. Her own cheeks burned red as she watched Yuan making out with Leah, the smallest among his wives.
When the kiss finally ended, Yuan gazed into Leah’s eyes and said, "Don’t worry. I plan to take control of the situation the mont their leader decides to use his full strength."
anwhile, at the center of the stadium, Emperor Philip was locked in a fierce battle against the leader of the Golden Skull. Both fighters moved at blinding speeds, their movents too fast for ordinary people to follow.
"Hahaha! I never imagined that the Emperor of one of the continent’s largest empires would be this pathetic! How disappointing!" The Golden Skull leader sneered, effortlessly defending against Emperor Philip’s relentless attacks.
"Don’t look down on , you scum! Soon, you will know despair and experience the horrors of hell!" Emperor Philip roared, unleashing a devastating attack on the leader of the criminals. The sheer force behind his strike sent the enemy flying backward.
However, such imnse power ca at a cost. Every action had its consequences—especially when wielding great power. That single attack had drained most of Emperor Philip’s mana, leaving him vulnerable.
