Ultraman: The Dark Shadow Mage, Creating a Magic Empire

Chapter 98 Diablo: I have a coin!

"Dias".

"What's wrong, Master?"

Diablo, who was approaching, stopped and squinted at Master Raiding's back.

"What do you think power is?"

Master Lei Ting's voice came through, carrying a somewhat indescribable tone.

"What is power?" Diablo hadn't expected Master Raiding to ask him this, but he already had his own answer to the question.

"Only the strongest in the universe can be called power!"

"But the strongest power is not necessarily the power that suits you, and external power is not true power. The true way to find power is to seek the power within your heart and control your emotions."

Master Rai Ting, with his back to Diavolo, sat in meditation with his eyes closed. Upon hearing Diavolo's reply, he couldn't help but sigh.

He knew he couldn't persuade Diablo, but humans aren't plants or trees; how could they be without feelings?

After so many years of getting along, although he was always wary of Diablo, he was still willing to consider Diablo as one of them.

He wanted to guide Diablo onto the right path, ideally by getting him to join the Shadow Empire!

But after he finished speaking, Diablo inwardly scoffed disdainfully.

No matter what Master Lei Ting says, it cannot change his thoughts and goals.

In short, they are not on the same wavelength!

"And what about you, Master? Does your power come from the universe's strongest mythical beast, the water buffalo, or did you cultivate it yourself?"

Diablo approached again, his eyes almost overflowing with killing intent.

But now he's not in a hurry to take action.

He wanted to see what else Master Ting Leiting could say, and also to mock him, give him hope, and then give him even greater despair!

Thinking about it this way, Diablo suddenly became impatient. He wanted to see Master Raiting's surprised eyes, and he wanted to see Master Raiting's regret and confusion!

What could be more exciting than completely destroying the mind and body of a respected master with his own ideas?

"My power, compared to the power given to me by the water buffalo mythical beast, I value my own cultivation more." Master Lei Ting's voice was very calm, more like chatting than preaching.

"Speaking of which, before today, I had not used the Powerful Bull-Breaking Fist for nearly three thousand years."

"Three thousand years?"

"Yes, three thousand years."

Diablo was somewhat surprised; possessing such great power without using it was something he couldn't understand.

If you put yourself in Diablo's shoes, you'd probably go around showing off and then beat up every single strong opponent!

Then, with the kingdom's fleet, they expanded, destroying civilization after civilization and turning them into vassals under the kingdom's power!

"That's only because there's no war. If you were to go to war, would you use your immense power to destroy others?"

Diablo walked behind Master Raiting as he spoke, slowly gathering power in his hands.

He was waiting for Master Lei Ting's answer, though he didn't know why he had to wait.

But a certain feeling in his heart made him want to hear Master Lei Ting's answer again.

But he was ready, and if he didn't hear the answer he wanted, or the wrong answer that aligned with Master Lei Ting's ideas, he would not hesitate to take action!

"Haha, that's a good question."

Master Lei Ting chuckled, recalling the conversation he had a thousand years ago when Norman asked him if he wanted to join the army after he joined the Shadow Empire.

He shook his head slightly and said, "No, this power will only be used for protection. It will only be used when there is an invasion or when protecting others."

"If this power is to be used to invade or actively harm others, then I would rather die!"

Last time, Master Raiding rejected Norman in the same way.

Norman didn't mind, but simply had them teach the Cosmic Beast Fist and granted them the privilege of not participating in the war.

And this time will be no different!

Diablo was not surprised at all. This was Master Raiding, this was his choice and thought!

"Dias, we've been together for over two thousand years, haven't we?" Master Leiting asked.

"Yes." Diablo nodded, but took another step closer.

"For over two thousand years, I've watched you grow up. You are the children I've watched grow up. This is like a home that belongs to us, and I hope this home will continue to exist for a long time..."

"Home?"

Diablo paused for a moment, then quickly smiled and said, "Yes, this family can continue, we can be together forever!"

"Really--"

"Pfft!"

Before Master Lei Ting could finish speaking, Diablo's fist pierced through his chest.

Diablo drew his hand and casually flicked it.

Master Lei Ting, who had been ambushed and pierced, collapsed helplessly to the ground.

"Why...?" Master Lei Ting looked at Diablo, his eyes filled with sadness and regret, not surprise.

"Why? Didn't you say you'd come with me? Give me the Water Buffalo Mystic Beast, and I'll use your share to spread the fame of the Cosmic Mystic Beast Fist far and wide!"

Diablo smiled, excitedly awaiting the appearance of the buffalo mythical beast.

But after waiting for a long time, he still didn't see the water buffalo phantom beast.

"What happened? Why is the water buffalo phantom beast nowhere to be seen?"

Diablo stepped forward, and just as he was about to grab Master Raiding, a powerful shockwave flew out from the side.

"Crimson Dragon and White Tiger Fist!"

"Boom!"

Diablo raised his hand at the last moment, blocking the two streaks of light that were flying towards him.

But when he tried to see who it was, all he saw was a huge fist!

"Thump!"

"what!"

Diablo was sent flying and crashed hard into the wall on the other side.

"Damn it, who attacked me?!"

Diablo climbed down from the wall, still not removing his disguise. Because he had suppressed his strength, the blow left him numb all over, and the intense pain pushed his mind to its limit.

But when he saw who it was, he was extremely surprised.

"Regulus? Impossible! Then why can he use dragons and white tigers!"

"Diaz, just as the prophecy foretold, you intend to attack Master Raiting. Why?!"

Regulus cried out in anguish, demanding an explanation from Diablo.

At this moment, Linglan rushed out from the side and led Master Leiting to the back to heal his injuries.

"A prophecy? How did you manage to get your hands on something like that? If you believe in prophecies, why are you even telling me anything?"

Diablo scoffed, "Didn't you believe in prophecy and already sentenced me to death from the very beginning?"

"How could that be! We've always wanted you to make a choice! Master Raiting took such a risk so that you could have a better option!" Regulus retorted fiercely.

"Hmph, enough talk. Now that you know, let's have a fight!"
