Given the young man’s understanding of his sister, he felt that the latter possibility was more likely.
The young man was enveloped by a cocoon of despair.
At that mont, he longed for a powerful force that could charge into the castle and take his sister away from this place while massacring all the evil people inside, including the Sixth Young Master.
Suddenly, he was hit by a spell of dizziness. After banging his head on the ground so many tis, he was concussed, and his consciousness started to slowly fade away.
The two tattooed n lost interest when they saw that the young man had fainted. They walked out of the castle and tossed him out like a piece of garbage.
The young man was dressed in rags and was in a sorry state. It was evident that he did not fit in with the imposing air of the castle.
So ti passed, and a gust of icy breeze woke the young man up. He opened his eyes and sucked in a painful breath of cold air.
The cold air in his lungs pulled him to his senses.
He turned to glance at the black castle before dashing back to his house.
Although there seed to be no one around the black castle, there had to be guards hiding in the shadows.
By now, there was no way that his sister was unaware of his visit to the black castle. If he lingered any longer, he would probably be killed by the guards.
Since he could not help his sister, he did not want to add to her sadness by dying.
At that mont, he prayed that a miracle would descend.
His mother had given him his first tattoo, and his father had given him his second. After his parents’ deaths, his sister tattooed them on him.
He rembered begging his sister to tattoo the two of them next to their parents so their family could be together again.
The young man clenched his fists tightly and slamd his fist into the wall of the alley.
There was an Earth Mother Elder in the black castle who held a middle-class knight position in the Spirit Mother Federation.
The rank above Earth Mother was Sky Mother.
Class 1 to 3 Creation Masters and experts below emperor-class could be Earth Mothers. Thearch-class and above experts could be Sky Mothers.
There could only be one Spirit Mother in the entire Spirit Mother Federation. This person was the only Class 5 Creation Master in the Spirit Mother Federation.
There was no royalty in the Spirit Mother Federation.
Experts who were thearch-class and above could be Spirit Mother Guards whose job was to protect the Spirit Mother.
The knights were a well-oiled machine.
The Earth Mothers worked for the Sky Mothers, and the Earth Mothers could also receive rewards from the Sky Mothers. The Sky Mothers all worshiped the Spirit Mother.
The knights were such an overwhelming force that the young man could not hope to retaliate.
If a god truly descended and enabled him to defeat the Earth Mother Elder in the black castle, the Sky Mother who had sent guards to watch over the black castle would definitely kill him.
Even if he managed to defeat the Sky Mother’s guards, the Spirit Mother and Spirit Mother Guards would eventually co after him.
The only way to change his fate was for him to beco a Creation Master and gain the rank of Earth Mother.
Unfortunately, he was too young and could not afford the 10 Spirit Mother dollars that were required to pay a Creation Master to test him for Creation Masters talent.
But when he thought about his sister, he felt a burst of courage.
If he could save his sister, he was willing to sacrifice everything.
Once he returned ho, the combined effects of the loss of blood, nerves, and exhaustion caused him to collapse.
His fist remained clenched even as he fell asleep, and the blood seeping from between his fingers soon stained the blankets, turning them as fiery red as his will.
…
A worn but large boat sailed across the waves.
The wood that the boat was made of prevented water from seeping in and rotting from occurring. It also gave the boat a stone-like quality.
There was an uneven sh attached to the boat. A layer of tal spiritual ingredients was stuck to the sh.
There were also two large lanterns at the head and tail of the boat.
Previously, there were high-grade strange flas in the lanterns that were extrely bright.
However, the strange flas in the lantern at the back of the boat had been removed by soone.
At dusk, as the wind and waves quieted down, the surface of the sea was especially quiet.
However, hundreds of five-ter-long black figures could be seen below the water near the boat.
Occasionally, one of the black figures would break the surface of the water and reveal the sharp spikes that covered their body.
If the black figures increased their speed, the spikes would blur together to resemble wooden boards.
Constant thudding noises were coming from the bottom of the boat.
Evidently, the black figures were knocking against the bottom of the boat.
Luckily, the wood at the bottom of the boat was rock-textured and was connected by tal spirituals to further fortify them.
Nonetheless, scratches were still left on the bottom of the boat.
The sailors sat around the deck. Only a few of them were still working, like those who were adjusting the sail and the one in the crow’s nest.
Their hands, lips, and skin were dry to the point of cracking. All of them looked extrely haggard.
It was strange for soone to be so deprived of water when they were surrounded by liquid.
Although seawater was not drinkable, one could scoop up a pail and allow the water to evaporate and condense back into clean water droplets that would be enough to sustain a boatload of sailors for a day.
However, this did not account for the situation where there were hundreds of black figures below the water.
So sailors had taken the risk of scoping up a pail of water and discovered the black figures’ strong leaping abilities.
There had been nowhere for them to find their footing in the water. But using the pail as a ledge, one of the black figures had managed to make it onto the deck.
As it squird and flailed around clumsily on the deck, its movents were still quicker than that of the fleeing sailors, and it was only killed after five sailors sacrificed their lives.
From the way that the sailors looked unbothered by the black figures, it indicated that they had been trapped for so ti.
The black figure that had leaped on board had been killed and provided the sailors with a source of food.
However, none of them dared to eat any more of the black figure’s flesh because the more they ate, the hungrier they beca.
Consuming food while being dehydrated at the sa ti was no different from committing suicide.
