Chapter 539: Fighting Overlord
Jack and Brock faced Overlord Fiend King in a pyramid floating in the middle of the sky. It would have been shocking if it wasn’t as dangerous.
Fiend King laughed. “You and what army?” he asked. “I don’t know how you got here, but this is where your journey ends. Go back. Don’t throw your lives away.”
“We got here the right way. By earning the qualifications,” Jack said.
Fiend King’s laughter was cut short. “You were classified as Eternal?”
“That’s right.”
“Both of you?”
“Yes.”
“That’s the stupidest excuse I’ve ever heard. We’ve never had a single Eternal talent—two at a time is impossible.”
There was envy in the Overlord’s voice, clear as day. He was one of the two rulers of this entire world, yet the Hall of Trials was a consistent reminder of his inadequacy. He’d only reached the fifth floor as a youth—anyone able to reach the sixth or the impossible seventh would only humiliate him indirectly.
