Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 684 The Enemy, the Ultimate Goal
"If you keep speaking the truth like this, the White Dragon King might not be able to sit still." Perhaps sensing the killing intent emanating from the Crystal Palace, the Goddess of the Night smiled and uttered a double entendre.

Although the sea man shut his mouth with "ah ah," he was clearly not afraid.

He doesn't care about dying at all, as long as it doesn't hurt.

The gods had indeed noticed his nonchalant attitude, but they couldn't go too far with it.

Who knows, this guy might have the ability to end his own life instantly?

Regardless of why the sea man was stalling for time, or what he was secretly stirring up, the gods still hoped to gain more information.

As for the key points this guy stirred up... if it were a god from another world, they would probably be furious by now.

But in their world, there is no such thing as divine retribution for disrespecting mortals.

"It seems he doesn't think your behavior is due to the influence of the White Dragon blood!" Lori said with a smile.

Travis snorted coldly: "Full of bad intentions, no wonder he's a troublesome creature raised in the water."

“They know you quite well,” Lowry replied with a smile. “They know that your control over the palace appears strong, but is actually weak.”

Travis's Northland Palace was indeed under his control, but His Majesty the King was not inclined to manage things too meticulously and preferred to leave his children plenty of space.

It's probably because of the shadows of the past.

Although he initially did poorly at the Northland Palace... Travis's father did have a fair number of children, but that was just the standard royal family figure, not so many that he didn't even want his son.

Travis was overlooked to such an extent not only because his mother died young and his family wasn't very supportive, but also because of his naturally arrogant nature.

In the royal family, unless the child is an only child or the eldest son born of the principal wife, there is really no situation where a mother gains status because of her son.

If you don't become the leader, being too arrogant will definitely get you punished.

Despite Travis's current smooth and friendly demeanor, he is still extremely proud at heart.

The reason he can smile at everyone now is that the people in front of him either have no effect on him or he can only endure them.

Even though he was just an ordinary prince, and initially he never even thought he had any hope of inheriting the throne, Travis had a 'who do you think you are' attitude.

Naturally, someone like him would be looked down upon by a prince from a powerful and influential family.

While they might not dare to do anything dirty directly to him, it's perfectly normal for them to suppress their feelings occasionally.

The former king was an extremely selfish and indifferent person.

He never interferes in disputes between children as long as things don't escalate.

What supported the princes in suppressing Travis was naturally their maternal families.

That's why so many families betrayed Travis after he came to power, following those princes who knew their future was bleak.

But they brought this on themselves.

When the Storm Family felt there was no problem, the local nobles felt they were in deep trouble. It was easy to tell who bore the greatest responsibility.

Originally, they had only been suppressed for a hundred or two hundred years. At most, there was no guarantee that the family could rise to a high position again in the future, but the family members could still survive.

Unfortunately, that group of people couldn't accept this outcome, so they simply chose to take a risk.

Perhaps because his past experiences were too deeply etched in his memory, Travis generally adopted a swift and decisive approach when dealing with the trivial matters of his palace.

The children are well aware of his bottom line, so they basically play their own games and rarely resort to violence when vying for power. It's usually the outsiders who suffer.

Therefore, even though he had countless children, none of them were ever bullied by their siblings.

Regardless of which family they come from.

Although Rosalind's situation is very special, it can actually reflect the freedom of the princes and princesses of the North.

It's rare for outsiders to see so many.

After all, on the surface, Travis is a true dictator, with his intelligence agents everywhere.

However, this sea creature was subtly implying that there were royal relatives in the Northern Palace who were cooperating with them, which was why he was able to be certain that the White Dragon King did not truly possess only dragon blood.

Only someone who knows Travis has no interest in uncovering his children's secrets, and who has even given them excessive freedom, could be so confident.

"My house is always so lively," Travis sneered.

He didn't care who was stirring things up inside.

Travis left the palace this time, entrusting everything to Leon and Yuri, hoping that the two of them could find the point he had overlooked.

When he was in power, he went too far, so even those with ulterior motives didn't dare to show their faces.

Although he didn't trust some people, he couldn't kill them again if they didn't make a move.

If we keep killing, those old guys in the Astral Plane probably won't be able to handle it.

Travis suddenly sighed: "If I had known things would turn out this way, I should have wiped them all out back then."

Unfortunately, he was fooled back then and actually thought he could rule the world! "It's not too late to kill him now," Lowry smiled slightly. "Otherwise, how will Leon make an example of him?"

You've even suppressed the Storm Nobles.

No matter how well-behaved and obedient the nobles are now, it doesn't mean they will be the same in ten or twenty years.

With such a powerful and domineering king as Travis on the throne, how could the nobles of the Northern Kingdom still cause so much trouble?
Although Leon inherited a kingdom that Travis had cleaned up and that he didn't even have to worry about foreign invasion, he still needed to establish his own rules at the beginning of his reign.

Otherwise, things will definitely get very complicated later... The nobles' probing will never stop.

The sea creature that had been lying prostrate at the feet of the gods suddenly sat up, and doubt gradually appeared in its eyes as it looked at the Crystal Palace.

"What? You've realized your little schemes are useless?" the Goddess of Night said sarcastically. "Even if Travis didn't have Uranus' blood, we wouldn't care."

Even if it were you, we wouldn't care if you appeared in this world openly and honestly.

Our world appears closed off because outsiders escaped in time before that sudden event.

Before that, we had never refused any visitor's visit.

"Of course, they're just guests."

Demons and devils, of course, are not permitted.

This is not because they naturally hate evil.

Before the fall of the gods, their world had also had many evil gods.

Human nature and divine will are both inevitably shrouded in darkness.

How could such an evil god, which arose in response to the times, possibly be completely eradicated?
It was because the demons and devils went too far and angered the will of the world that the Sun God focused most of his attention on eliminating them.

However, even if someone possesses the bloodline of a devil or demon, such as Sebephia, the Sun God will not take action against them before they do something wrong.

The Goddess of Night glanced at the Lord of Earth and received a slight nod in return.

She let out a soft breath, but did not expose the sea man's scheme.

Although Rainwater had previously colluded with the Outer Gods, it was to gain greater power in this world.

Foolish and greedy, but understandable.

Anyway, they need someone like that... The Tower may be crazy, but he's not stupid.

We can settle the score later.

However, the rain has now completely lost its mind, only wanting to make them pay the price, even at the cost of destroying the world.

The Goddess of Night glanced at the Lord of Ice, who refused to leave his spot... This guy was genuinely protecting the world.

Since they had long been in contact with the outside world, they naturally knew what the River Styx was and what the elemental realm was.

However, the world itself is not large enough. The elemental realm, which should be inseparable from the world, is also detached from it because the laws at the edge of the multiverse are incomplete.

There was no way to open a path to the elemental realm, nor could there be a way to directly pull in the faint black river deep underground.

They can only accept this imperfection.

Moreover, since they can accept the existence of the White Dragon King, they naturally don't care whether the one who controls the River Styx is an alien god... but it must be a true neutral being, the kind of death god who only serves the River Styx.

As the world collapsed, at the moment of the world's will's self-sacrifice, the night and the earth discovered that the direction of the Styx tributary seemed to be drawn here by some being.

That was pure Styx light. Clearly, whoever was inside was the Grim Reaper acknowledged by the Styx.

What else is there to say?

The first reaction of the Lord of the Earth and the Goddess of the Night was to completely seal off the road leading to the depths of the earth, and then the Lord of the Earth was put in charge of monitoring it.

The Goddess of the Night knew long ago that only when both the laws of life and death appeared and possessed their incarnations could their world escape its past predicament of being vulnerable to attack and ascend to a higher level.

Even if they won't be as powerful as Toril, at least no one will ever again recklessly wage war outside their world.

And they themselves can become stronger through this advancement.

The laws of life, with the cooperation of the gods, have become perfectly in place.

The gods never care about the petty actions of humans, precisely because of their vibrant life force.

How could the Earth Church possibly achieve such perfect results by simply planting magical creatures!

Although the appearance of the White Dragon King was an accident, the fact that humans were transformed from ordinary elemental knights into extremely special bloodline knights was a huge surprise.

Humans used to need a long period of cultivation to obtain vitality, but now they can acquire it at birth through contracts with magical creatures and long-term coexistence.

Even if they can't become professionals, their physical condition is much better than before.
