Dark Disperse whooshed past the people like a scythe, and no one seemed to be able to stop it.


    Isaac was the only one who managed to let out a cry, summoning a spirit sword and hurling it toward Dark Disperse before turning to run.


    However, Dark Disperse lit up with spirit mes at once, with runes burning brightly amongst the mes.


    Isaac''s spirit sword was destroyed in no time. Dark Disperse caught up to him instantly and plunged straight through his body.


    Isaac cried out in agony, copsing to the ground in indignance.


    He was scared out of his wits and unable to focus on fighting back. Trying to run away only brought him a speedier death.


    The remaining pupils were even more powerless against the attacks from Dark Disperse. Within less than a minute, the square was littered with bodies, staining the floor red with blood.


    Lucia was unable to hide his emotion at the sight of his enemies being taken down for good.


    Just then, Sophie, Demi, and the others came up to Wilbur and bowed deeply.


    Wilbur nodded his head.


    Lucia said, "Pleasee with me, Mister Penn. I''ll let everyone else get some rest. We still have some work to discuss after this."


    Wilbur nodded.


    Now that the job was done, it was time to get his reward.


    There was no way he would do all that for free.


    Demi and the others were invited to join the discussion as well, meaning that it was definitely aboutnd deration.


    Following that, Wilbur and the others followed Lucia into Neb City, where they were settled down in the most luxurious hotel there.


    Lucia left after that. He was in a rush to discuss the next n of action with the president, as well as the situation with Wilbur, Demi, and the others.


    Wilbur was in no hurry, settling down in a room with Shepard and drinking leisurely in the living room.


    That night, the hotel was sealed off from the public.


    Lucia and the president went up to Wilbur''s room with Demi and the others. The discussion went on into the wee hours of the night before everyone finally left.


    In the next two days, there was a colossal shift in Manand''s politicalndscape.


    Maddox was dead, as were all of his pupils. All of them had been wiped out because they had provoked an elite from Dasha.


    Many people could not ept the news, and several forces tried to retaliate.


    However, they were quickly struck down.


    Following that, the parliament announced the list of all of Maddox''s crimes. The cultivator who had killed Maddox was to be sworn into royalty as Prince Penn, and North Manand was to be his assigned territory.


    The news shook all of Manand again, and it was all everyone in Manand could talk about for the next few days.


    On the third afternoon, Wilbur came out for a stroll with Shepard.


    The ceremony was happening the next day, and both of them were bored out of their minds staying in their rooms.


    The sight of a different culture on the streets was interesting enough, at the very least.


    Shepard wrapped his Nature Longsword up with a piece of white fabric, carrying it on his back as he followed behind Wilbur in silence.


    Every man and woman could not help but stare at Shepard as they passed him. This man was just too handsome.


    He had an air of sorrow about him, making him even more appealing.


    Just as Shepard and Wilbur were walking around, a luxury car stopped right in their way.


    A beautiful woman in her thirties emerged from the car, apanied by two burly bodyguards as she sized Shepard up.


    "Bring him back."


    The bodyguards walked up to Shepard, ready to take him away.


    Wilbur''s jaw fell open as he stared at the woman in disbelief.
