The son of the dragon who walks

Chapter 55 Palace of Shadows

The entire Clover Kingdom saw the huge demon palace emitting light flying across the sky. The direction it headed towards was the capital of the Clover Kingdom.

Perhaps Laia couldn't wait to end the family's tragedy, so the Floating Demon Palace moved forward quite quickly.

No matter how much magic power he invested, the speed of the huge floating demon palace was no worse than that of an ordinary wizard flying on a broom.

Soon, the Floating Demon Palace approached Clover City, and Laia, who was standing at a high place, could already see the fire and black smoke produced by her companions making a fuss in the royal castle.

"It's finally starting!"

Laiya sighed with emotion, and used space magic to reach the depths of the Demon Palace. There were a large number of cultivation tanks erected here, and they were all filled with blank bodies prepared for the elves.

In order to cultivate these bodies, samples were needed, so Laia worked tirelessly to collect the body tissues of all the reincarnated people. This man who hated trouble the most ended up living the busiest life.

In the two culture tanks at the front, two people opened their eyes. The culture tank broke and the culture fluid flowed all over the floor. A boy and girl who looked like they were only fifteen years old came out.

"Welcome back, Witte, Fana! Now, everyone in Saphira has gathered." Laiya said with a smile.

In ancient times, the elves gave humans the care of a special space called the Palace of Shadows, a gap between this world and the other world.

In order to hide the Palace of Shadows, humans built a city on top of it, which is this Clover City.

Humans cannot open the Palace of Shadows. Only the ten elven leaders who have received God's revelation from the elves - Saphira can open it.

Humans guard the door, and elves guard the key to open the door. It stands to reason that this forbidden space will be buried forever. Who could have imagined that things would develop like this.

This is also the reason why the Word Spirit Demon must use the elves. His previous attempt to possess Richter's body failed. Now he can only get his own body back through the Palace of Shadows, the passage that connects the real world and the underworld.

Laiya returned to the top of the Demon Palace with the mark of Fana's slap on his face, who had just shamelessly teased Fana.

Seeing the Saphiras arriving one by one, Laiya began to control the collapse of the Demon Palace, revealing its true appearance.

Ciel learned from Laia that this floating demon palace has been completely transformed into an altar that opens the Palace of Shadows.

The upper part of the originally egg-shaped floating magic palace was directly broken, revealing a huge platform with a huge tree of life magic circle engraved on it.

The so-called Saphira refers to the ten circles on the Tree of Life, which can also be called the particles.

The ten elves stood on their own Sephiroth positions, and together they input magic power into the Gelbite Rock under their feet. The shadows that emerged from the ruins of the royal capital rose up, gradually forming the shape of a twisted castle.

In the ruins, Yami, Jack, who had finally blocked the reincarnation of the elf, and the newly awakened Fagrain, as well as Nossel and others who rushed back from the border, all saw the Palace of Shadows taking shape.

"Imitate magic and say words!"

Laiya did not rush into the Palace of Shadows with other elves, but activated magic to get in touch with Ciel.

"The Palace of Shadows has been opened here!"

"Got it!" Charles agreed and stood up from sitting cross-legged.

Nero lay on Ciel's shoulder with an expectant look in his eyes.

Ciel walked up to the stone statue of the first Magic Emperor and embedded the magic stones on the statue one by one.

Until the last two round magic stones were put into the eyes of the stone statue, a lot of magic emerged from the stone statue.

"It's such a warm magic. Congratulations on waking up after sleeping for five hundred years, the first magic emperor... His Highness Prince Lumière!"

The stone statue came to life in the surge of magic power. Lumiere moved his body and said: "Thank you for helping me unblock it, modern magic knight!"

I can feel the Palace of Shadows opening, is that guy’s plan still completed?”

"No, Your Highness the Prince, this young man has obtained the truth from five hundred years ago, and together with the sober elves, he is ready to fight the devil!

He just wanted to borrow your power to wake you up."

"Is it Sekere? Is it like this because of forbidden magic?" Lumiere looked at Nero and said with guilt in his tone.

Presumably, he attributed Sekore's condition to his lack of ability to defeat the demon.

Nero said: "Maybe it's because the devil's seal has not been completely lifted, and now I have not even recovered my human form. But it doesn't matter, Prince, just wake up!"

It's my lack of ability that makes you wake up in this miserable state."

Lumiere smiled and said: "Don't say that, I am able to wake up and complete my mission all thanks to you!

But I didn’t expect that modern magic knights would be so outstanding. It was because of our failure that demons threatened this era. I should thank you for your efforts."

With that said, Lumiere turned around and formally saluted Ciel.

Ciel said: "This is also to protect my friends, so please give us a helping hand!

It’s different from your time. Now we have the ability to completely eliminate the devil! This time we will definitely be able to cut off the tragedy that has lasted for five hundred years.”

Nero also said: "He is a young man without magic power. He got Richter's magic book and has the anti-magic power to restrain demons!"

Lumiere said in surprise: "Do such magicians still exist in modern times? Magic indeed has various possibilities.

Although I really want to know more about it, the most important thing now is to defeat the devil."

As he spoke, Lumiere opened the magic book in his hand, and a huge clover javelin made of light appeared in mid-air.

Without waiting for Ciel to respond, Lumiere grabbed his shoulder, and the two of them were wrapped in light javelins and flew toward the royal capital.

The speed of light magic was much faster than that of Ciel. It seemed that in just the blink of an eye, the two of them saw the Palace of Shadows.

The two landed on the platform at the top of the Floating Demon Palace, and Laia, who was waiting there, saw Lumière at a glance.

"Sure enough, you have woken up, Your Highness the Prince!" Laiya said with emotion.

Lumiere said gently: "I remember, you are Laia! Long time no see."

Laiya said with some embarrassment: "Um... Anyway, I'm sorry, I didn't explain the misunderstanding to others for you."

Lumiere said: "It's okay, I understand."

As he spoke, Lumiere turned and looked at Richter behind Laia.

"We meet again, Richter!"

"Lumi...Al!" Richter, who was originally like a doll, actually recognized his best friend in front of him and stumbled out his name.

Laia shook her head and said: "You actually reacted just after we reunited? It's really jealous!"

Charles said: "Okay, stop saying such stingy words! How about it, have you found who the devil is incarnated in?"

"Probably!" A cold look appeared on Laia's face, and she said, "We must deal with that bastard this time!"

Ciel nodded and glanced across the ruins below.

"We found...the two most important people in this battle! You go first, I will take them to follow immediately."

After saying that, Ciel leaned over and landed on the battlefield, spreading his flame wings and flying towards the two most important people.
