I probably landed myself in big trouble this time.

Warren laughed maniacally. “Enjoy your stay in prison, Zeke. It'll be your permanent residence. I'll be going up to take your place and enjoy the world's worship. Men, heed my call!”

“Yes, Sir.” Quasar and the members of the Fourth Branch kneeled before Warren.

“Stay here and keep a close watch on Zeke. Once I go to Eurasia, I'll bring back more of its Fortuna.”

“Yes, Sir!”

Warren caressed the snake-dragon lovingly. “Wait for me, Jacob. Soon you'll have all the Eurasia Fortuna you want. Once you become a dragon, we can go anywhere we want in this world.”

Jacob, the snake-dragon, nodded greedily.

Warren gave Zeke one last mocking look before he leaped up and flew toward the top of the valley.

Zeke was in despair. He knew that his legion would now be commanded by Warren, and that fiend would spend all the resources however he wanted. Even his family would fall into Warren's hands.


Zeke had never felt so hopeless before. He knew if he didn't escape, his whole world would be ruined. I have to escape this place. I have to. No matter what.

He took a deep breath and calmed his racing heart down. What he needed was a plan to break free, so he started brainstorming. Eurasia had billions of people, and the Fortuna that was created by that kind of faith energy was too powerful for him to break alone.

The only path he could take now was to merge himself with Eurasia's Fortuna. That was his only chance at escaping.

Merging myself with Fortuna, huh? That's a viable plan. Zeke's eyes glinted with hope.

It didn't take long for Warren to ascend Bloodshot Valley. When he came back on top, Sole Wolf and Tiger Lord were still defending against the fighters from the Orient and the International Bureau of Executioners.

Stefan got it the worst. His head was already a bloody mess, but Sole Wolf still wouldn't let him off the hook.

When they saw Zeke return, all of them heaved a sigh of relief and huddled around him.

“Did you find anything, Zeke?”

“What's in the valley?”

Zeke shook his head. “Nothing. Just a deserted wasteland. Let's retreat for now.”

“Huh?” Everyone stared at him in confusion. They were surprised Zeke wanted to retreat. “We're going to retreat just like this, Zeke? I don't think there's nothing in the valley. Something must be down—”

Zeke glared at them angrily. “I said retreat! Understand?”

Sole Wolf and the others were shocked and nervous, for that was the first time they had seen Zeke flying into such a rage.

Sole Wolf thought it was a waste, but still, he said, “I see. What should we do with them, then?”
