Chapter 195: Solitude (3)

The demonic magic Dan Socheon unleashed and the black magic Cedric cast—everything was sliced in half under Fiore’s sword blade.

Weapons that cut the enemy.

Swords.

Nothing could stop him.

“Is there no way?”

All the two of them could do was keep swinging their swords and accumulating black magic in an attempt to slow his advance.

“I didn’t expect this.”

“You seemed pretty confident.”

“Who knows.”

Cedric smiled.

“Shit…”

“My father is also connected to that guy. alert It’s not strange that he exceeded expectations.”

“You also miscalculate sometimes?”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

“I had no rival in the East.”

“And weren’t you the Heavenly Demon? alpha Is that all you’ve got?”

“Just hold on a bit longer.”

“And then what?”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Not even I know.”

“I didn’t want to waste this here, but I’ll have to use more power.”

“How long do you expect me to hold out?”

Dan Socheon took a deep breath and stepped forward. matrix The sight of Fiore advancing without flinching, despite being entangled by countless hands, was simply terrifying.

Now he was fighting just to survive.

Dan Socheon breathed deeply. matrix He had wanted to face the strongest man of the West, but the difference between them was overwhelming.

“Hoo, hoo…”

Did all those resentments and screams of the devoured humans not affect him in the slightest?

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

He would deal with that monster somehow. accent He just had to buy time.

And he was the Heavenly Demon, at the pinnacle of them all.

He cast a sideways glance at Cedric—someone who had obtained the Secret Manual of the Heavenly Evil Spirit. arch A madman, yes, but his arts were real.

Dan Socheon used the most powerful demonic magic he had. meadow The internal energy throughout his body twisted. album The stronger the demonic energy, the greater the side effects—but anyone who feared that could not be called a true demonic practitioner.

Fiore raised his sword. artist It wasn’t a special movement.

“Come.”

Not fluid, not elegant.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Then he swung it.

Within that rough motion was a deadly aura that bordered on perfection.

It was a natural gesture—like someone holding a sword for the first time.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The moment Fiore swung his sword, Dan Socheon’s fate was no different than that of a fish laid on a chopping board.

Heavenly Demon Divine Sword — Heavenly Rupture.

That’s why he could only try to block it with all his might.

It had to be dodged. airport But it was impossible.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The two energies collided. admire Dan Socheon clenched his teeth.

Dozens of sword energy blasts spread at once, forming an arc to face Fiore’s sword.

Fiore’s sword was terrifyingly sharp. portal A line of condensed energy pierced through his defense and slipped inside.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The Heavenly Demon Divine Sword shattered. silence Dan Socheon was slashed and fell to the ground.

Once the barrier collapsed, there was nothing more he could do.

“Guh…”

Luckily, he didn’t die. sphere The first wave of sword energy absorbed part of the impact, and the black hands clinging to Fiore’s body also slightly hindered his movements.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Dan Socheon got back up. ability But he no longer intended to continue fighting.

“What are you looking at?”

“Guh…”

He glanced backward again. amber A strange demonic energy flowed around Cedric. amateur But it wasn’t complete yet.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

At that moment, without realizing it, Fiore’s sword was already near his neck.

“You…”

Dan Socheon shut his mouth and slowly turned his head. timber Blood trickled from his neck.

Fiore’s indifferent eyes stared at him. anxiety That gaze was exactly like Cedric’s.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

With Fiore so close, Dan Socheon could also see more clearly the hands of the solitary poison created by Cedric.

One of those hands touched Dan Socheon’s body. advance Even someone accustomed to demonic energy like him held his breath at such an intense curse.

Just approaching them made his body tremble. audit The wretched feelings of humans devoured alive and turned into zombies manifested in real form and clutched at Fiore’s limbs.

“You’re definitely not a normal human…”

His insides churned violently.

Dan Socheon muttered.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Without hesitation, Fiore was about to plunge his sword into Dan Socheon.

Then Cedric spoke,

[Regain consciousness.]

The hands holding Fiore also extended to reach Dan Socheon. adopt His pupils turned black.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The solitary poison obeyed Cedric. arcade No—not Cedric, but a deeper darkness he controlled.

In that instant, Dan Socheon felt the resentment invading him disappear.

It wasn’t human language. harbor It was something far more dreadful.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

[Fiore Briol.]

They couldn’t be understood with words, but their meaning was transmitted directly to the mind.

Unintelligible sounds spilled from Cedric’s lips.

Fiore also averted his gaze from Dan Socheon and looked back at Cedric.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

It had five fingers with long claws, tufts of something like fur sprouting in all directions, and between them, skin covered in wounds oozing pus.

And then, a gigantic hand appeared. agent It was different from the ones clinging to Fiore.

[Stop.]

If the hands that emerged from the solitary poison were dark, shapeless masses, the hand Cedric summoned had physical form.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

[Otherwise, I will tear it from you.]

That massive hand held something faintly glowing.

It was the arm of a creature that didn’t exist in this world.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Fiore stopped.

Fiore silently stared at Cedric. avalanche He could tell it was another entity speaking through his mouth.

[Even though you didn’t flinch at all this resentment, this is something you don’t want to lose?]

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

While Fiore remained still, Cedric began forming seals with his hands again.

[Let’s begin negotiations. amber I will protect your most precious memories. august In return, sleep in the darkness. absorb It won’t take long.]

The hands wrapped around Fiore’s body seized his limbs. galaxy Those that had seemed to crawl under heavy burden regained their strength and coiled around him.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

At that instant, Fiore swung his sword. advance It was a sudden action that unleashed a new turn of events.

Fiore remained silent.

[Good.]

The gigantic hand began to approach Fiore. silence That shining thing it held was heading toward him.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

The black hands made of resentment recoiled, and the gigantic hand summoned by Cedric fell to the ground, bleeding.

Fiore swung his sword again.

With an agonizing scream, the hand was sliced in two. advance The light it contained broke free from its bindings and was absorbed by Fiore.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

His sword did not discriminate between enemies.

Even though Cedric continued forming seals, all his black magic was destroyed. zenith Fiore and Cedric now stood face to face.

Dan Socheon, who got in the way, was flung through the air, spitting blood.

“I think you’re even more of a monster than I am.”

“You weren’t like this.”

“You’re a monster, Father.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

But Fiore’s sword tore through it completely and pierced in.

Fiore swung his sword. afford A dark energy burst from Cedric’s body and formed a barrier.

“I’ve had a revelation recently.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

One of Cedric’s arms flew through the air. alpha Blood gushed out.

“Of course… I see. armor It’s because of that Yuri, isn’t it?”

Without even screaming, Cedric leaned forward and began to chuckle.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

At that moment, strange words came again from Cedric’s mouth. august From his severed arm, darkness burst forth, transforming into tentacles like octopus legs, wrapping around Fiore’s sword.

Without dragging it out, Fiore attacked.

Fiore raised his sword indifferently. airport Now he wasn’t aiming at Cedric’s arm, but directly at his neck.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Cedric spoke.

“Father.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

[I’ve lost too much, but that only makes it more delightful. atlas Hahahahaha…]

“Cedric.”

His pupils turned completely black.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

[Rest in peace.]

“Cedric.”

Cedric laughed as if he were drugged.

[But this is where it ends.]

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Cedric’s tentacles surrounded him again. acquire Fiore became a black sphere made of tentacles.

Cedric smiled faintly. apron On his cheek, scales like those of a reptile began to emerge.

And at the same time, the hands of resentment completely enveloped Fiore’s body.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Cedric chanted unintelligible words.

Cedric placed a hand on the sphere.

With each word, the demonic energy grew denser. august From where he stood, the earth began to die.

The weeds on the ground withered and rotted instantly.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Cedric smiled.

Through that narrow crack, Fiore’s eyes gleamed.

The evil energy peaked. apple The sphere containing Fiore began to compress.

He clenched his fist.

[Rest.]

It shrank and shrank until it was no bigger than a fist and rolled along the ground.

Cedric collapsed.

“Hahaha…”

“Hahahaha…!”

The tentacles completely hardened and now resembled a grotesque stone sculpture.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Cedric propped himself up with his one arm. avalanche The stump of his right arm, lost to Fiore, was already covered with grotesquely scarred skin.

Meanwhile, Dan Socheon managed to stand, staggering.

“So this… is the strongest swordsman on the continent.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

“No. orbit You?”

“Me neither.”

“You alright?”

Both were wrecked.

Around them, the ground was slashed by Fiore’s sword strikes.

“But in the end, we did stop him.”

“I had to use another page of the Secret Manual of the Heavenly Evil Spirit.”

“We offered up an entire city, brought in the Heavenly Demon of the East, and even with my help, we still couldn’t stop him.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Cedric picked up the sealing sphere that had fallen to the ground.

“I’ve lost more than I thought. abstract And we didn’t even kill him—just sealed him.”

“That much?”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Cedric turned.

Not far from where they had fought was Laurent.

“Still, we’ve overcome the worst obstacle.”

“What will you do with him now?”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Laurent had witnessed the entire battle, how Cedric and Dan Socheon sealed Fiore.

“He’ll know what to do.”

“Leave him.”

***

Cedric tucked the sealing sphere into his chest.

“Now, we head to the Empire.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

First, the King of Briol, Fiore, and Crown Prince Cedric disappeared.

And even if there were, no one could hold the Empire accountable directly.

While Yuri was unconscious, many things happened.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Amid the chaos, Joshua, the second prince, temporarily took over the government and signed a truce agreement with the Empire.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

From Briol’s perspective, it was as if the Empire had built a fortress right under their nose.

Meanwhile, the war between Brusen and the Holy Kingdom intensified. altitude Thousands of soldiers died.

Though a truce had been signed on the surface, the Empire deployed an army to Bezos and began stockpiling vast amounts of military supplies.

“Prince?”

“Uuuh…”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Prince!”

“Yes. timber It’s me, Ena.”

“At the royal palace.”

“Where… are we?”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

Yuri sat up abruptly and looked around. alert It was his room.

Everything felt familiar yet foreign—like when he returned in time.

“It’s all over.”

Yuri asked:

“My brother? alpha And the Empire?”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 195: Solitude (3) published by TrungTu Reads.

“The war. timber A truce was signed. alien So don’t worry—just rest.”

“What?”

“And Cedric?”

“Once you’ve rested a bit more, I’ll explain everything.”

“For now, please rest.”

Ena gently pushed him back down to lie.

“What?”

“Ena… how long was I… unconscious?”

“A month.”

“You were asleep for a month.”

A month.

Yuri stared at the ceiling, dazed.

A long time.
