Chapter 484 484: Abbadon
“What do you think?”
Gabriel’s question in response to her question stunned Jia. She didn’t know how to answer. There was no way for her to know his exact intentions after all.
“This battle is inevitable.” After a long period of silence, Gabriel responded. It wasn’t just about Avilia for him. Even though she was a factor behind his decision, but his real intentions were more than that.
His main intention was to free the City where the portal of his palace was.
He was sure that the Temple of Time already knew about the portal, even though he hid it thoroughly. They were probably trying to find ways to break the defenses. If they somehow succeeded, they could reach his Palace and find his sealed defenseless army!
What was even worse was that his sister was also inside the Palace at the moment!
If they didn’t attack in the coming days, there were too many risks. He didn’t tell Jia. It wasn’t that he thought she’d betray him but he didn’t trust her enough either. Moreover, there was no need for her to know such things. It wasn’t going to make any difference in their goals after all!
Seeing Gabriel not explain any more, Jia also decided to not ask. She stopped thinking too much about it and went to sleep.
She didn’t worry about her safety in this place since who could even dare to attack her in Gabriel’s presence. Even if there was an enemy attack, she was sure that Gabriel was going to know and deal with it.
Gabriel cast some spells in his surroundings to hide their whereabouts, including some detection spells to make sure that no one disturbed them during the night.
He was also the last person to go back to sleep as well, only falling asleep a few hours later than the other two.
His mind was still filled with many thoughts, yet he was so tired that he didn’t even realize when he fell asleep.
….
It was early morning. The sun had started rising in the distance, providing warmth to the surroundings.
Gabriel slowly opened his eyes as direct sunlight fell onto his face.
He had only slept for less than five hours yet he was also the first person in the group to wake up. Unlike the others, Gabriel didn’t have any dreams.
Time passed extremely slowly for him when he was asleep, as if everything around him was dark and he was trapped in that darkness. In fact, he didn’t even remember the last time he had a dream as Karyk.
Since his memories were sealed when he lived as Gabriel, at least he had some dreams. However, now he was back to his old self… Someone whose heart was empty inside.
He still remembered the dreams he had when his memories were sealed. Even though most of those dreams were nightmares, he still cherished them. It was much better than how he was now.
He let out a sigh as he stood up, casting a cleaning spell on himself. At the same time, his clothes also changed, turning into something much brighter.
He was in a beautiful white attire, donning a silver robe on his back.
Strangely enough, his attention wasn’t toward the Royal City of Arecia at the moment. Instead, he was looking in a completely opposite direction, as if he was able to see something that others couldn’t.
Not long after, Alion and Jia also woke up. While Alion stretched his arms, Jia rubbed her eyes, as if she was still sleepy.
Gabriel didn’t explain anything to them. He just opened a spatial portal, without giving the other two much time to even ask questions.
“You two stay here. I’ll be back soon.” After speaking, he walked inside the Portal.
The spatial portal closed as soon as Gabriel passed through, making it impossible for anyone to know just where he went.
“Don’t tell me he’s going to attack the Royal City right now?” Jia subconsciously glanced in the direction of the Royal City in the distance. She couldn’t think of any other place where Gabriel would go at this time.
Alion didn’t respond. He simply remained silent, as if thinking about something.
****
The space cracked and a spatial portal opened hundreds of miles away from the Royal Capital of Arecia.
The place was completely barren and not many people even came here since there wasn’t anything here… Or so everyone thought.
From the spatial portal, a young man, clad in white stepped out, observing the valley in the distance.
Gabriel took a step forward and jumped inside the valley without thinking twice.
Unlike the others, he wasn’t worried about the fall. His physical body was already strong enough that even if he fell from thousands of meters, he could still remain perfectly fine.
A booming sound resounded in the valley as Gabriel landed in the depths. A crater appeared under his feet, as if the force of his landing was too high for the ground to stay intact.
Gabriel patted the dust off his spotless white clothes before turning to his left where a majestic city could be seen.
No one could’ve guessed that there was a city in a place like this. In fact, if Gabriel hadn’t recovered all his memories, even he would’ve had a hard time locating the city since this was the City of Abbadon, the City controlled by Lambard.
A barrier was erected all around the city that could remain unbroken even when it was attacked by two Holy Lords last time.
Gabriel walked to the entrance of the City of Abaddon. He was greeted by two human-like puppets before the entrance of the City of Abaddon who commanded him to leave as no one was allowed to enter the City!
Unfortunately for the puppets, the person they tried to stop didn’t have any intention to stop.
Gabriel raised his right hand, clenching his fist lightly.
At the same time, a strange energy appeared inside the bodies of the two puppets. Blood red light covered their entire body and before they knew it, their bodies exploded!
The two human puppets were artifacts that could be killed yet never destroyed as they could recover themselves. However, when faced with Gabriel’s attack, both the puppets were thoroughly destroyed, turning into specks of light, merging with the surroundings. They could never heal anymore!
While Gabriel destroyed the two puppets easily; Lambard, who was inside his Palace in the city sensed it!
He had been sleeping at the moment yet he suddenly sat up, covered in sweat!𝚗𝐎𝚟𝐄𝓵𝑵𝑒xt.𝓬𝔬𝑚
