Chapter 296: Divine

In seconds, the whole human ice sculpture was evaporated into thin air!

Charles then enveloped his body in crimson flame and disappeared from there.

A moment later, he reappeared next to Jessie and looked at the other battle.

At that moment, Destiny Lady had already released her full wisdom power and completely suppressed Emilia using pure soul force.

No, Destiny Lady hadn't used her skills at all!

She effortlessly breaks away from her mind-controlling skills like Touch of Idiocy, Control words, and Thoughts Manipulation and soon knocked her out.

If not for Emilia being a family member of the Wilson Family, Destiny Lady might have long killed her!

"What should we do now?" She stared at Emilia's wrinkled face for a moment and asked.

Meanwhile, Jessie looked around in confusion and started to speak.

"Something is definitely wrong about this chase. First, Omen tried to control our minds and lure us out of the mansion. But we somehow manage to break away from his control, retaliated, and even managed to give a heavy blow. When he tries to get away, Mr. Charles arrived there on time and blocked him. It's his first obstacle. At that moment, he used some strange skill to hide from you guys and ran away from there."

"Unfortunately for him, I used his blood and began to track him... It's his second obstacle. In the end, he came to this unknown farmland and turned it into a sculpture under Lady Natalia's spell... It's the third one. Just when we are about to kill him, Lady Emilia showed up in a bizarre state and seems to have locked the space... In the end, he died under Mr. Charles's hand. But there is definitely some mastermind pulling strings from behind the scenes! If not, why did Omen try his best to come to this place and get himself killed? He had many other options to escape, but he didn't. It was as if he came here under someone's order!"

At that moment, all of them looked up at the sky and turned serious.

"It's the Dimension Lock spell... So, their main aim is to lure and lock us here, huh." A look of understanding appeared on Destiny Lady's face.

"We shouldn't have chased after Omen!" Anger flashed on Jessie's face.

'If Mr. Charles hadn't shown up, I wouldn't have chased after Omen. Damn, Rhea and others might be in danger.' She hurriedly took out her communication ring and tried to contact her Teacher.

Unfortunately, no reply came from the other side!

Her heart started to thump harder all of a sudden.

'W-What to do now?' Her mind went chaos.

At that moment, a soft hand pressed on her shoulder.

"Calm down, Jessie. We will think of something else." This time, it was Destiny Lady who arrived next to her and spoke in a comforting voice.

Then, she glanced at Charles and furrowed her brows.

"What's your plan, Charles? I know that breaking this Rank-5 Dimensional Lock Spell is not an easy matter. You must have known something about this strange manipulative force, right? What is the opposite party's aim?"

Upon hearing her question, a surprise flashed on Charles's face.

Still, his gaze remained on the invisible dimensional lock!

After staring at the lock for a few seconds, he nodded his head in understanding and spoke.

"This manipulative force is a Divine's separate consciousness. Well, even I know nothing much about it. But your guess is spot on. The Divine wants us to seal here till the ceremony ends."

"D-Divine's Consciousness?" A shock and alarm appeared on both of their faces.

Without minding their shocking looks, Charles took out a silver pocket watch from his space ring, flipped open the outer case, and glanced into it.

'7.56 A.M. Hmm, it's almost time.' He nodded inwardly and continued to look for weaknesses in the Dimension Lock spell.

He had long activated [Arcane eyes] skill during all these times and was waiting to break the spell.

'Moreover, Mr. Runeth already told me that a [Dimension Lock] spell's main weakness should always be on the outside. Hmm, where is it?' His gaze constantly moved as he continued to search.

In the meantime, Destiny Lady woke up from the shock and spoke in a solemn tone.

"It seems this matter is more serious than I thought. That explains why we ended up trapped by the mysterious Elder guy." She paused for a moment and asked.

"So, do you have any plan? You grandfather must have some countermeasure against it, right?"

Upon hearing those words, a smile appeared on Charles's face.

"He does have a plan. But it's not the right time." Saying so, he remained motionlessly on the plowed field and waited.

...

Throne Hall, Royal Castle.

In the meantime, the ceremonial rite continued to proceed as the Head Priestess ended the chanting and used her thoughts to break an empty vial.

The next instant, a strange melody came out from the vial, entered deep into Rhea's main consciousness, and soon disappeared.

"Excellent! Rhea's main consciousness is also a real one."

Just as she finished her words, the final ring in Rhea's hand also turned into a cloud of white smoke and merged with the other three clouds of smoke.

Then, a dazzling light appeared from the clouds as they continued to merge and soon formed into an emerald-colored ring.

Simultaneously, some mystical energy came out from the Ruler's Ring and completely enveloped Rhea's body!

"Ruler's Ring!" Head Priestess said with a bright smile on her face.

Then, she glanced at the grey-robed priest named Theo and ordered.

"Give me the Crown now."

"Yes," Theo nodded his head, took the golden crown from the other priest's hand, and passed it to her.

Meanwhile, Head Priestess caught the throne with both hands, arrived in front of Rhea, and placed it on her head.

"I, the 9th Head Priestess of Four Elemental Temples, hereby declare Rhea Boneflare as the Rightful Ruler of Iron Kingdom!"

Saying so, she knelt on the ground and bowed her head.

The next moment, all those Nobles, Mages, the Royal Knights, Ambassadors, and even the Churches' Representatives stood up from their seats and bowed their heads in unison.

Even Titus, Noel, and Ashley stood up from their seats and bowed their heads subconsciously.

Meanwhile, a few nobles and mages even knelt on the floor and bowed like Head Priestess.

Only the mighty Oswald remained seated next to Rhea's throne and stared at everyone in amusement.

'Hmm, I think it's time.' He nodded his head, concentrated his attention on the contract mark, and spoke.

'You can begin now.'

...

At the exact moment, Charles received information from his Inner World and curled his lips upward.

Then, he raised his hand, pointed his finger at the sky, and spoke.

"Hand of Wonders."

A moment later, a single invisible string came out from his forefinger, moved towards the sky, and then directly tore through the Dimensional Lock spell!

Wherever the invisible string moves, space began to bend and made way for it!

Then, the string made a slight turn, moved towards the main weakness, and pierced it.

The next instant, the whole Dimensional Lock spell shook for a moment and soon crumbled into millions of pieces!

Upon witnessing such a scene, both Destiny Lady and Jessie went dumbfounded for a moment.

On the other hand, Charles casually retracted his hand, moved it to Destiny Lady and Jessie, and spoke.

"Hold on to my hand. I will take you guys directly to the Throne Hall-"

Before he could even finish his words, a boundless pressure came out of nowhere and slammed them on the ground!

At that moment, the fallen Emilia began to stand up and released a terrifying power in all directions.

Then, she opened her eyes and stared at Charles with a cold look on her face.

"Charles! You are going nowhere." A raging female's voice came out from Emilia's mouth, causing all three of them to shudder involuntarily.

At that moment, Charles raised his head and soon trembled as he saw Emilia's eerie black eyes.

Even though it was just a glance, he felt boundless terror appeared in his head!

"Divine!" His voice contains a trace of fear.

On the other hand, Emilia snorted coldly, looked up at the sky, and frowned.

"You sure do love to mess up my plan, huh." She muttered in an unfamiliar female voice and added.

"But you forgot one thing, Charles. I'm a Divine."

Then, she raised her hands, gathered some invisible power, and spoke.

"Dimensional Seal."

After that, she closed her eyes and fell backward with a thud.

Simultaneously, the invisible boundless pressure on Charles and others also disappeared from the area.

"W-What the hell was that?" Destiny Lady raised her head, looked at the newly formed invisible lock in the sky, and asked with a disbelieving look on her face.

At that moment, Jessie also sat up from the ground and asked.

"I-Is that the Divine's consciousness you said earlier, Mr. Charles?"

Her voice contains shock, fear, and terror!

Meanwhile, Charles sat up with a solemn look and nodded.

"She is the Divine."

Then, he followed Destiny Lady's gaze and soon went pale.

"A Rank-6 Dimensional Spell?" He couldn't hide his shock at all.

Destiny Lady also went pale and then muttered.

"The Divine seems to be hell bend on keeping us here."
