Little Tyrant Doesn't Want to Meet with a Bad End

Chapter 506.2: Is There Really Nothing More to Her Gaze (2)

Roel first answered a series of questions from the doctors before turning his attention to the maids. Under his probing, they began to fill him in on what had happened after he passed out.

The first time Roel passed out was during their blood transfusion.

He was already a foot through the gates of death by then. In order to save him, Charlotte was forced to transfuse blood into him on the spot despite the huge risks involved. What he didn’t know was that Charlotte didn’t just stop at the usual halfway threshold but instead replenished him till he was two-thirds full.

While she had recovered a fair bit under the resurgence of her High Elf Bloodline, her sudden loss of blood and the constant sapping of her life force through the Rings of Symbiosis had put her in a severely weakened condition once more. It would have been difficult for her to carry Roel out given her condition.

For a moment there, it looked as if the two of them would die together in that wretched black vortex.

Fortunately, Stuart had been tracking her movements with his sharp eyes. Thanks to his directions, after the Rosaian guards had layered multiple barriers of Jewel Magic on her, Grace was able to make a beeline for Charlotte and Roel and drag them out.

When they finally returned to the Diamond Rivière, Charlotte stayed by Roel’s side and kept calling his name, hoping to awaken him. That was also when Roel awakened for the first time, though he quickly fell asleep in the midst of the treatment.

As promised, she stayed by his side and guarded him.

According to Grace, Charlotte had been so worried about Roel’s loss of sight that she cried for the entire night. The doctors of the medical team requested her to undergo treatment, but she turned a deaf ear to their advice, insisting on staying by his side.

Despite Charlotte’s unwavering determination to stay with him during his time of difficulty, the world wouldn’t bend itself over to pander to her will. For someone who had only just recovered from her affliction, transfusing a third of her blood and having her life force constantly siphoned away proved to be too much for her to bear.

In the end, Charlotte still succumbed to her weakness and fell asleep at dawn.

Grace made use of this opportunity to carry Charlotte to the neighboring bed, and the medical team quickly conducted their treatment on her. Even till now, she was still asleep.

Roel fell silent at her report.

Unlike his usual victories, there were really a lot of close shaves in this fight. He was only alive because of Charlotte’s unshaking resolve to save him. Hearing that she was safe made him heave a sigh of relief, but there were many doubts in his mind that he couldn’t shake off.

He thought that several days had already passed when he first woke up, not only because of the thorough recovery of his external injuries but the absence of his abilities’ side effects too.

There was no denying the power of the Crown’s Stones, but there was a steep price to pay for tapping into their powers. Be it Glacial Touch or Time Devourer, their side effects were a huge headache to him.

Considering how he had thoroughly abused the power of the Crown’s Stones in his battle against Flooding Death—he had unleashed multiple floods of frost aura while maintaining a barrier of pale yellow wind to keep the ancient monster from escaping—he should be shuddering in a miniaturized body right now. It was queer that nothing had happened to him.

Perplexed, he turned to the System as soon as Grace and the others left. There, he found his answer.

【Rejection of foreign bloodline has been quelled.】

【Bloodline fusion is successful.

Fusion Rate: 68%】

【User has temporarily obtained ‘Administrator’ authority】

【Side effects of the Crown’s Stones have been paused due to the user’s ‘Administrator’ authority.】

Roel was flabbergasted when he saw the string of notifications from the System. Through carefully examining the new key word, he quickly deduced what was going on here.

This is probably the result of the transfusion of Charlotte’s High Elf Bloodline.

This brought further credibility to Roel’s previous deduction.

The high elves were likely to be the administrators of the Six Calamities back in the ancient era, and the true use of Jewel Magic was to suppress those ancient monsters.

Building on that, it should come as no surprise that the High Elf Bloodline itself exerted a natural suppression on the Six Calamities too. Thus, when Roel’s Kingmaker Bloodline finally accepted Charlotte’s High Elf Bloodline, the latter began suppressing the Crown’s Stones in his body, stopping them from messing around inside of him.

This also explained why Charlotte had always been able to alleviate the side effects of the Crown’s Stones, as well as Flooding Death’s determination to kill her.

While feeling relieved at having his doubt answered, Roel was also glad that he didn’t have to suffer from those darned side effects of the Crown’s Stones anymore.

He continued looking through the System’s notifications and noticed that there was an option for him to absorb Flooding Death’s Crown’s Stones. That was good news, but he was in no rush to follow through with it

Flooding Death was an existence that blighted swathes of land with a single touch. The curses unleashed with its death were so potent that it would take millenniums for them to dissipate, and it would probably be impossible to hasten the process.

Back when Charlotte recklessly charged into the vortex of curses to save Roel, Grace and the others had attempted to neutralize the curses in order to help her find Roel. After all, the Sorofya House was one of the few powers who weren’t completely helpless against the Six Calamities thanks to their Jewel Magic.

Unfortunately, the results were lackluster.

Without Charlotte’s Primordial High Elf Bloodline, Jewel Magic, by itself, was unable to induce any considerable effect on that dense vortex of curses. Even when Andrew and the other high transcendents from the Sorofya House arrived, they were helpless before the curses too.

Thus, there was no rush for him to absorb the Crown’s Stone. It was best for him to first make a full recovery before absorbing the Crown’s Stone, considering the toll it would on his body.

Aside from that, there was another matter that left him deeply concerned, and that was the intimidating gaze from the sky shortly after he had killed Flooding Death. Just thinking about the pressure he felt at that moment was enough to make his face severe.

It reminded him of the dreams he had, and it forced him to confront a dreadful truth.

The Mother Goddess, who had only been able to gaze on him from the world of dreams, was now able to directly interfere with the real world. This was not a matter to be made light of.

He did have such a guess when the Six Calamities first became active, but it nevertheless left him with an awful lurching sensation when it was confirmed. What worried him even more was whether that had only been a simple gaze or not.

While it was uncertain what the existence of the Six Calamities were intended for, they were indubitably the Mother Goddess’ envoys. Was it really possible for the Mother Goddess to remain unfazed when Roel was killing off her envoys one by one?

She coldly gazed at me without making a move at all…

What does this mean? Is She unable to directly attack me yet? Am I too insignificant to warrant Her interference? Or maybe… there isn’t a need for Her to personally make a move at all?

Reminded of the other calamities roaming the world, Roel’s face turned pale.

Wherever he went, the moon would always be hanging high above the Sia Continent, gazing upon him. If the Mother Goddess had the ability to command the Six Calamities, those ancient monsters could very well already be on their way to him.

Flooding Death was nothing more than a newborn amongst the Six Calamities, but he had to expend everything he had in order to bring it down.

Should he come under the attack of another one that had already developed for quite some time, such as Shrouding Fog, there was absolutely no chance he could win at all.

With such thoughts in mind, he looked out of the window and started thinking up possible countermeasures.
