Monarch of Evernight

Chapter 1446: Fall

Lord of Evernight. This was an address that would make everyone sigh; even Qianye felt his c.h.e.s.t tighten.

The dark race titles weren’t given just randomly. They were given according to the attributes and power of the expert. This was especially true for princes and great dark monarchs. Certain powerful great dark monarchs obtained their titles from the River of Blood and the darkness origins.

For instance, the Eternal Flame had resonated with the darkness origins during his ascension and was subsequently granted his title. Princes from any of the twelve major clans would receive a relevant title if they could ignite their clan’s seal, a prime example being the Flaming Crown Habsburg.

A title bestowed by the origins wasn’t just about fame or pleasantries. The expert had to possess corresponding power in order to be called as such.

The only exception would be the supremes. Their titles were a form of recognition.

Knowing full well about this tradition, Qianye naturally understood the meaning behind the title “Lord of Evernight.”

It meant that Andruil had already reached the Sacred Mountain and could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Demon King and the Queen of the Night.

Qianye’s emotions were complicated. The vampires had produced yet another supreme, but they were almost wiped out by the war on Twilight Continent. Although it was widely accepted that the vampires would always thrive as long as the Queen of the Night was alive, it remained that the Azure King had already fallen.

If only Andruil had appeared earlier...

Qianye put these impractical thoughts aside and gazed deeply at the Black-Winged Monarch.

This person... the Lord of Evernight... was similar to the image back in the secret realm, down to his demeanor and temperament. His long, dark hair flowed freely across his shoulders, and his skin beneath the black robes was as white as snow. He was shrouded in a layer of hazy light, and those eyes of his were as deep as the blue ocean.

The man’s aura was like the boundless night sky, boundless, majestic, and endless!

Qianye collected his thoughts and said, “I understand now. The secret of the holy mountain... is you!”

“Correct.”

“But why did you hide yourself here? Unless... there’s something special about this place?” Qianye had his doubts. With Andruil’s might as a supreme, why would he need to hide here? Even the Demon King himself would be on par with him at most.

“There is no particular secret here. If there’s anything special here, it’s the mirage moon origin power hidden within those trees. This type of origin power is too unstable for people to utilize, and you were simply using it as fuel just now. Even I have only grasped a fraction of its characteristics.”

Andruil gazed deeply into Qianye’s eyes. “You should’ve realized by now that the apex of this world is the coexistence of daybreak and evernight. Be it the daybreak origins or the darkness origins, both of them are defective on their own. They require each other to provide meaning to their existence and draw out their power. That’s why your chaos origin power and my mirage moon origin power are far stronger than all the others out there.”

Qianye nodded, shaken by this sudden revelation. At the very least, Andruil had proven that he had successfully cultivated the mirage moon origin power. Andruil’s strength was at the peak of the great dark monarch realm, to begin with. With the mirage moon origin power aiding him, it was only a matter of time before he would become a supreme.

At this point in the conversation, Andruil laughed self-deprecatingly. “It’s comical that fighting is the only way for us to measure power. In truth, this type of mysterious strength can be applied to many fields. There are hundreds of types of doc.u.mented origin power, perhaps thousands if we dissect them in detail. There is no useless type of origin power; people just didn’t know how to apply them. Over tens of thousands of years, we only saw one single use for origin power and that is to kill. At the very least, we should use it to explore the void.”

Qianye remembered hearing about this somewhere. “I met an interesting person, a young lord of the demonkin race called Anwen. He has no interest in fighting and only wishes to explore the void. He says he wants to break through this cage and reach for the vast world outside.”

“Inconceivable.” Qianye sighed. Anwen was one of the rare dark race members that Qianye admired. Suddenly remembering something, Qianye said, “Your other consciousness can communicate with your main body?”

This was something even the Pointer Monarch couldn’t do.

Andruil said, “This is just one of the simplest uses of the mirage moon origin power. I had only touched on the hems of it back then. I will hear and see whatever my projections do.”

Qianye finally understood why the legendary Black-Winged Monarch dared to challenge Lilith. He had already stepped into the realm of mirage moon.

At the mention of this, Andruil sighed. “But... this thought didn’t originate from Anwen. It was Yuqing. She was the one who made me understand how vast this universe was, so vast that there was no need to fight or exterminate a certain race. Every blade of grass, every tiny creature was a part of the greater whole.”

Qianye shook his head. “The thought is all well and good, but it’s not practical. All else aside, the Empire and Evernight have been fighting for a thousand years, the enmity acc.u.mulated cannot be dissolved so easily.”

Andruil said, “Correct. In truth, it’s not just between humans and Evernight. The races of Evernight also have deep vendettas between them that cannot be resolved. The only way is to become the strongest, even stronger than the supremes. Only then will you be able to suppress the entire realm and wipe out all enmity.”

“Those who are unresigned to the suppression will still start wars.”

“A war to stop all wars...” Andruil shook his head with a sigh. “I know this isn’t practical, but there’s an ancient human saying that goes ‘do what you can but resign yourself to fate.’ I only did what was within my power. As for why I’m hiding here...”

“What?!” Qianye was shocked.

Andruil’s figure turned a bit blurry at this point. Only then did Qianye realize that this person before him was only an illusion.

Qianye possessed the Eye of Control yet he still failed to realize it. This went to show just how powerful the mirage moon origin power was in terms of illusions. What truly shook Qianye was the fall of a supreme.

Andruil didn’t really mind. “Actually, my fate was sealed the moment I made my decision. To speak of the details, we have to begin from the discovery of the new world...”
