It had been over 12 hours since folks had scattered across the island in search of Randal's Treasure. During that time, many had realized that the treasure had been found, and so they gave up and returned to their cities.Since everyone had worked together to destroy the Immortal Sword Academy, none of the people there had fought each other, and there were many fewer deaths.

But a lot had still happened, and it was difficult to return to the academies. Outside, a girl with blue hair was still walking in the forest. She was strong and had mastered the Half Step Purple Lightning, which many people would find intimidating. But she had enough strength to walk around the island alone, with her fanny pack slung over her shoulder, picking any suitable plants she saw on the ground.

Lena saw that it was all over. She saw the end of all the fights. Lena witnessed all of this, but she didn't worry. She understood their power, and she knew that Red Lightning Academy could defeat them. Red Lightning Academy was a talented group.

Lena kept walking and collecting things for a while. There were so many things that her master wanted from her that at first Lena let out a deep scream because the list was too long for a list of materials, and every material was precious and rare. If they weren't on Sky Island, it would've taken Lena much longer to find them.

At that moment, Lena felt a scary aura approaching her from behind. She turned around and looked at the person walking towards her, stumbling through the Darkness.No matter how much she looked at the person, she couldn't see them because it was nighttime.But Lena saw the black hair between those steps and the skull between those hairs, and her body went into a state of shock.

"Wow, he's so strong!"

Lena could feel his powerful presence, and it was clearly stronger than Alan's.

Jace stepped out of the shadows, taking his time, and looked at Lena. It was then that Lena understood what was going on.

"You have become the King of Mortals."

Jace didn't say anything, but his bloodshot eyes showed how he was feeling. Lena narrowed her eyes and looked at him.

"Jace, are you okay?"

At that moment, Jace burst out laughing and looked at Lena, laughing.

"I'm fine, I'm fine!!!"

She was shaking like she was in the grip of a severe illness, and he couldn't hold it in.

"You cheated on me!!! Now I'm here to make you pay for it!!! Or did you think I was going to let you off that easy, Lena?"

Jace's different way of speaking and the blood in his eyes made Lena realize something, but she was now at great risk.Kai was no longer the strongest man on the island; Jace, who was at the peak of the Purple Lightning Midpoint, was now the strongest.

Jace's current strength was a spike after he became King, which is why he was able to become the strongest on the island. And now his ultimate goal was Lena's death!

Lena hadn't even seen Jace move when he suddenly lunged forward, but her body moved instead, dodging Jace's attacks one after the other. Lena felt an intense choking sensation.

At that moment, time froze.Lena jumped back in horror at the thought that Jace had frozen time, but Jace was still in the same place, and even his shoulder-length hair was not moving. He was completely frozen!!!

"What's happening?"

"I'm giving you a chance, Lena."

Lena looked around at the sound of her Master's voice, but she didn't expect to see him right in front of her. This time, his gaze was sad. It seemed he had stopped Jace.

"It's time to say goodbye, Lena."

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

Lena was confused by Kaizer's words, which came out of nowhere. She didn't understand, so Kaizer looked at her seriously.

"This is not the Jace you know. He has become a King who stands out even among Kings like the King of Mortals. But that is hard to control. Always has been.... But you cannot resist it. Jace has reached the peak of the Purple Lightning's Middle, and he's also the King of Mortals. It's possible he finds it easiest to kill someone, and you can't even escape in your current state."

"That's why you are now the King of Pure Healing! You don't have to take the final exam! You don't have to cope with my difficult training! The moment you become a King, you will reach the Peak of the Middle of the Purple Lightning!!!Even though you can't defeat Jace, with my help you can escape!!!"Kaizer's every word was harsh, and he clearly didn't want to show his sadness, but it was clearly noticed by Lena.For a while, Lena could not decide what to do, but she was no longer alone.Her master was with her!But now he was leaving again? Why?

Lena felt the tears begin to fall as she squeezed her fists, the pain in her heart overwhelming her.

"I don't need to be a Healing King!!! I don't need to take the Final Exam!!! I want to cope with your difficult training!!! I don't need to be Free, Master!!! Just don't let me be alone!!!"

Kaizer took a step forward and stood in front of Lena, who was now 18 years old and a young woman. She was finally able to make her own decisions.

"It doesn't matter what you think, Lena."

Kaizer smiled once more, and both Kaizer and Lena's surroundings began to glow with a white-light-green color.

"This is my decision."

Time began to move again, but slowly.Jace was moving very slowly. But in fact, it would only take him a split second to get to Lena.

Kaizer let go of Lena and turned, starting to walk away. With every step he took, a piece of his body was torn away and merged with Lena.The title of King, which had kept him captive all this time, was now merging with Lena, and Kaizer was slowly passing into the realm of Spirits.

The tears never stopped flowing from Lena's eyes. Suddenly, Lena broke through the Purple Lightning barrier, and a light emerged from the ring in her hand, merging with her. This meant that she had crossed into Purple Lightning and merged with the Mana Weapon.Lena's Mana Weapon was a ring that allowed her to gather more energy and attack with it. This was how she had attacked Kai, but at the time, it was useless because of the huge difference between Kai and Lena.

Lena's eyes changed color, and a beautiful red lightning emerged from the very bottom of her eyes. As Lena's tears fell, her lightning slowly changed, and the purple lightning trail grew larger and larger.By the time the lightning trail was halfway to her eyes, Kaizer had almost disappeared, 10 paces away from Lena.

Kaizer didn't look at Lena. The tears that fell from his eyes were very precious to him and he had rarely shown them before. He only cried when something happened to his students. And in the Battle of the Sky, he had seen all his students die.Kaizer would destroy himself in that battle!He was a king, but how could he call himself a king if he couldn't protect his people? That day, he had wanted to destroy himself and all the hunters, but he never expected Era to destroy himself.

Kaizer didn't want to show his eyes because he didn't want Lena to be impressed. He clenched his teeth and sniffed, trying not to cry. His body had held out for so long because of his desire to stay with Lena, but it couldn't go on forever.

Kaizer turned his head slightly and saw Lena's face red from crying. She couldn't say anything.Suddenly, the man she loved had tried to kill her, and now her master was leaving. She could no longer understand what was happening!

"Don't look like that, Lena... Don't kill me again..."

Kaizer's words made Lena tremble and cry even more. She kept wiping her tears with her hands, but it was no use. She was bawling her eyes out, and there was nothing anyone could do to stop her.

Kaizer took a few more steps and shifted his gaze once more, but this time the tears were clearly visible.As much as Kaizer didn't want to go, he had no other choice. He had to leave.

"Don't let me down, Lena!"

Kaizer said, his voice cracking with emotion.Lena didn't say anything. She couldn't say anything. She couldn't get a word out of her mouth anymore. She was tired and didn't even know what to say.

"See you again soon, Lena."

As Kaizer vanished into a white light, Lena raised her hands to him, but they remained in the same position, still and motionless. Her master had transitioned to the spirit realm, and Lena, as the King of Pure Healing, had reached the pinnacle of the Middle of the Purple Lightning.

Lena clenched her fists as time slowly returned. She squeezed her fists so tightly that her hands were covered in blood, but she didn't give up.She turned her gaze and looked at Jace, who had suddenly come at her. She knew she had to run.The Immortal Formation didn't matter to the King of Mortals. The King of Death had enough power to ignore it.

But at that moment, Lena did not wait for death to slowly come to her. With a surge of determination, she raised her hands, and a gentle glow began to emanate from them. Though Lena wasn't a master of energy, her ring bestowed upon her a significant boost in power.

"Energy Ball!!!"

Lena didn't unleash her full might in this instance. Instead, she merely deflected the attack. Still, she recognized that confronting Jace was beyond her capabilities. With a swift movement, Lena retreated into the shadows. It wasn't easy to run away from someone who was so strong, but Lena was feeling overwhelmed. She was angry, and her face showed it. Her fists were covered in blood.

"You're going to pay for this, Jace!"
