"..."

A feeling of fear spread from the bottom of Pace's heart, followed by an almost cruel instinct.

He grasped the hilt of Svarog with his silver hand, feeling the "sizzling" sound when the scorching heat came into contact with the cold steel, and his black eyes gradually became blurred.

Feels so familiar...

"call......"

After a long time, Pace let go of the hilt of the sword and slowly walked to the Fire Throne.

On the throne, a bottle-shaped container with complex patterns engraved on it sat quietly. Through its transparent glass, Pace saw the liquid that was shining with red light.

This is the [Source of God], the power derived from the Hafurgard people.

Pace picked up the container and watched the red liquid inside it flash red.

If I inject this into my body, can I gain power beyond that of humans?

Can I become like Perlis...with strong perception...reaction...and even physical strength?

With this, can I oust Venia and help the Monarch family regain the top of the Snow Peak?

"..."

In the moment when he was wandering between thoughts, countless faces flashed before Pace's eyes, one after another.

He tightly grasped the [Essence of the Gods], turned his head, and grasped [Svarog] with his other hand.

"Dad, Lianna," Pace said, his voice calm, "look at me (Thebite)."

......

"Azev Petrov."

In the camp beside the campfire, the lord wearing a helmet made of a bear's upper jaw was sitting on a wooden chair, silently watching the person who walked into the tent.

In the corner of the tent, several wet nurses were hurriedly taking care of the newborn babies, looking extremely overwhelmed.

"It's me," Ajef grinned, "How's it going? Did you receive the letter I sent you earlier?"

"Got it, and I think you're farting, too."

Boris Lebedev sat on a wooden chair, his eyebrows slightly narrowed:

"You told me that you were going to pull Venia Irenfono down from the snowy peak? And you received instructions from the Monark family? Are you here to get yourself killed?"

"Oh, calm down, my friend," Ajaf said, still grinning. "I know your harvest is not good. I am here to help you out, right?"

"Fuck you, we can't resist them," Boris yelled, pointing at the nurses nearby, "My sons are almost starving! The Inquisitor has taken everything! And you want to make the situation worse?"

"Wouldn't it be possible to stop this kind of thing if Venia Irenforno was killed?"

"Fuck you, you really don't understand what I'm saying?" Boris cursed. "Our combined forces are not even half of his. Do you expect me to die with you? Or do you want to take those Monarks who are almost dead with you?"

"That's right." Ajav grinned.

"You're fucking crazy, get out of here!"

"Well, don't worry. Before that, why not take a look at what I brought you."

As Ajef spoke, he took out a handwritten drawing from his waist, unfolded it, and handed it to Boris.

Boris glared at him fiercely, snatched the drawing roughly with one hand, and read it carefully.

As he read on, his eyes widened slightly and he muttered words like "impossible" and "true or false".

After a long time, when he put down the drawing, his eyes were already a little shaken.

“Are these passages real?”

"Just dug out from Carl Monak's bunker," Ajef curled his lips, "Dear Master Pace, no, Lord Pace said that the positive things should be left to him, and we will take care of the rest."

"Fuck... this..."

Boris Lebedev sat down on a wooden chair, rubbed his head, looked at the baby crying for food, and took a deep breath:

"I need a guarantee," he said. "I can't lose."

"Promise? Do you need my promise?"

A clear female voice was heard. Boris turned his head and found that the figure in silver armor walked in from outside the tent.

She flicked her golden hair, walked to Ajaf, who was grinning, and faced Boris:

"I promise you, we will win."

"Angel?" Boris murmured. "Yelena Goncharova?"

"Yes, we cannot fail (Thebite)."

Yelena looked straight into Boris's eyes, with a gleam of wind and snow in her eyes.

"The true Monarch has returned (Thebitten)."

......

Extra) "Until the top of the snowy peak" (Part 16)

"Across the gullies between the mountains (Thebite)..."

"Climbing the snowy peaks and splitting the clouds in the sky (Thebite)..."

"Send a battle cry to the distant tower, and answer with a code of blood and steel (Thebite)..."

"..."

Steel Fortress - Snow Peak

"...Line up! Emergency! Notify Lord Venia!"

"...Have the [Iron Guards] arrived? Line up first!"

"...on alert! Quick!"

"..."

The strong wind and blizzard were blowing on the snow-capped peaks of Wanren Mountain, shattering the already weak sunlight into barely visible powder, which was scattered among the particles of wind and snow and flickered.

At the gate of the steel fortress, hundreds of soldiers wearing powerful armor were on high alert, with the black muzzles of their guns lined up in an array.

All those gun muzzles were pointed at a figure squatting on a rock in the wind and snow more than ten meters away - he was carrying a huge sword whose outline was surrounded by flames, and his face was blurred in the wind and snow, but two rays of fire could be clearly seen in his black eyes.

That's Pace Monarch.

He just squatted quietly on the rock, half lowered his head, silently facing the thousands of troops in front of the steel fortress.

"..."

After a long time, three figures wearing strange powerful armor walked out of the formation and slowly moved forward.

The three [Iron Alliance Guards] stopped not far from Pace Monarch. The muscular tough guy in the lead raised his neck and shouted:

"Hey, are you from the Trap?"

"Let Venia Irenfono come out..." Pace still kept his head down.

"Are you blind? Can't you see who I am?" A smile appeared on the face of the Iron Guard, "Listen, I am from the Iron Guard..."

"Not interested (Thebitten)."

Pace raised his head slightly, and in an instant, the fire in his black eyes stunned the three [Iron Alliance Guards].

The next second, raging fire cut through the snow, and a giant shadow flashing with fire appeared along with the scorching wind.

"boom!"

The leading [Iron Guard] was cut into two pieces at the waist by [Svarog]. Before he could even react, his upper body fell stiff in the snow.

As the other two [Iron Alliance Guards] just reacted, Pace extended his mechanical hand, and a red arc of electricity burst out from the silver classical mechanical structure.

"Zizzizi!"

Red arcs of electricity pierced through the two men's heads, and Pace immediately swung the flaming giant sword and chopped off their heads.

"thump."

"..."

In just a few seconds, the three [Iron Alliance Guards] were killed by Pace without any suspense.

Facing the vast army in front of the Iron Fortress, Pace slowly straightened up and thrust the flaming giant sword into the snow, causing a burst of white mist to emerge.

"You can all come together," he said, his dark eyes flashing with fire, "I have an appointment with the Iron Lord."

When the three [Iron Alliance Guards] were casually killed by Pace, all the soldiers in the formation were stunned for a moment.

They didn't expect that the [Iron Guards], which symbolize the highest combat power of the [Iron Fortress], would be killed so casually.

When they saw Pace approaching slowly with the giant flaming sword, their instinct for survival finally drove them to raise their weapons.

"Da da da da da!"

Bullets rained down like an overwhelming force, hitting Pace's factor shield but failing to cause any damage to him.

The cannons on the city wall fired one after another, hitting the surroundings of Pest, splashing dust, but unable to stop his steps.

He strolled leisurely in the rain of bullets with a huge sword on his shoulder. As he got closer to the soldiers' formation, his pace gradually quickened, and then he began to run.

The flaming giant sword [Svarog] was dragged behind Pess, and the scorching blade left a fiery scratch on the snow, emitting white steam. As Pess got closer and closer to the formation of soldiers, his speed increased, and then he jumped high -

"call!"

Facing the rain of bullets, Pace raised the giant flaming sword, fire flickered in his black pupils and red arcs of electricity swirled on his silver hands.

Then, he fell straight towards the formation and fiercely slammed the giant sword down -

"boom!"

The trailing flames streaked across the snow like a meteor, and when they hit the ground, a scorching shock wave exploded, knocking the soldiers down!

After landing, Pace quickly used his silver hand to grab the hilt of the sword, then dragged the sword with force and spun it violently -

"Buzz!"

The sword blade dragged out a vortex of flames, instantly chopping countless soldiers into pieces of shattered flesh.

Then, Pace wielded the flaming giant sword and slaughtered the crowd. Every swing of his sword was accompanied by a whistling flame, reaping the lives of the soldiers in the blizzard.

The soldiers' screams came one after another. They kept retreating, almost in defeat, towards the gate of the iron fortress, trying to retreat back into the fortress.

However, a roar came from the top of the city wall:

"Close the door! Close the gate! Fight to the death!"

Pesce looked up and saw Venia Irenforno standing by the city wall with a pale face, overlooking the battlefield dominated by Pesce alone.

He never expected that Pes Monarch actually found the [Svarog] hidden by Karl Monarch, which meant that he had been injected with the [Essence of the Gods].

"Shit...if it was me...if I got the Essence...then the power would be mine..."

Venia looked at Pace angrily, and at this moment, their eyes met.

One pair of black eyes showed panic and helplessness, while the other pair was extremely indifferent.

"Keep him out!" Venia yelled, "Or you will die!"

"Boom!"

The gates of the Iron Fortress were closed, and all the soldiers outside the city walls were blocked, with no way to retreat.

They turned around and looked in horror at the slowly approaching Pace Monarch and the flaming giant sword.

"..."

Looking at those soldiers whose eyes were filled with fear, Pace's heart was filled with savagery, and bloodthirsty desire surged one after another.

He is no longer the boy who would hesitate when it comes to killing people. For the sake of his family, everything is just a means to an end.

When the positions conflicted, he had no choice.

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"
