Legendary Guardian - Volume 3 Chapter 369 369

Although he didn’t get to say much to his family, Derik couldn’t suppress the joy bubbling in his chest. He walked out the door and took a final glance at the building he once called home, where he saw John and Linda gazing at him from a window with watery eyes.

“When did you all become so soft? Hehehe In that case, this is my last gift to you all, my dear family” Derik muttered as his shadow suddenly expanded, forming a circle with his feet at the center. From it another shadow like creature escaped, speeding into the old building so quickly that Linda and John didn’t notice.

“Keep my family safe” Derik muttered.

“Yes, my lord” within the shadow a pair of golden eyes appeared.

………………………..

Bang!

As Derik appeared above the sect, a booming sound followed, and then his darkish green death aura spread across the sect once again, twirling around the skies like a typhoon. The sect members slowly gathered and cheered as they watched their sect master who was capable of taking on the legendary demigods.

“Oooh My, I can’t say I didn’t expect this but this is a lot more intense than I ever expected How can I struggle against this? I am pretty sure Cyrus is facing this same issue as well, I wonder how he’s holding up.” Derik said was he looked at the direction of Cyrus sect, if not for the loud cheers and cries from his people below, he was pretty sure he could have heard people from the life palace cry out in joy.

“Well I won’t deny this but it does feel good to be appreciated” Derik said while returning his gaze to those below him.

At this moment, those outside the mountain ranges where both sects are located could only see darkish green and golden clouds gather and twirl around the mountains. Even though these two elements were opposites, they didn’t hinder each other nor clash. It was like a perfect mix, signaling the return of the palace masters.

“Enough” Derik spoke lightly but his voice was like thunder, loud enough to make the ground tremble and silence tens of thousands of people.

“Big bro!”

Amongst the silenced crowd, five youths cried out and flew towards Derik. Dimitri flew directly into Derik’s embrace while the rest circled around him, gazing at their sworn big brother in shock. The changes Derik’s body had undergone was just too much for them to accept so easily.

“You have grown up quite well, my little Dimitris Same for all of you” Derik spoke with affection oozing out of his voice, stunning all the members of his sect. Everyone present knew what Derik always cared about them and he always showed it in so many ways but not this manner. This was all new to them, but Derik could careless since his days here are numbered and he was planning to declare who his successor will be right here and now.

“I thought big bro was dead” Dimitris spoke “They kept saying Big bro must be dead but I didn’t believe them Big bro is the strongest No one can kill big bro” Dimitris continued.

Hearing this, Derik shot a glance at the other four only to notice the serious expression on their faces. He could easily guess they too had to deal with such rumors.

“This, Did you really think your big bro will die so easily? Hahahaha! No one can kill me, not even demigods” Derik gently stroke Dimitris’ hair while he spoke, causing all five to smile sheepishly.

Woosh!

Woosh!

Woosh!

The next moment Kira, Kuen, and Kin, the three demon generals appeared behind Derik. Waving his hand lightly, three souls escaped his body, taking the form of three humans.

“Kalos, Aldora, and Gin I wish you all to bear me witness as I pick my new successor” Derik said with a stern tone to prove he was serious about the matter.

Except for those who already knew that Derik had picked Blink as his successor, the others were excited, bearing false hope in their hearts, especially Derik’s direct disciples who assumed they were the next in line with the exception of Dimitris who really didn’t take any interest in ruling the sect. in fact, if he is to be chosen, he may even end up turning down the offer unless Derik insists.

“First of all, I must say a few things first Thank you When I killed the former king Robert and liberated Gyro from the holy church I felt alone no matter where I went or what I did, I always felt like no one in this world could understand me people just see me and assume I am evil because of the nature of my magic I felt truly alone until I created this sect and found all of you People just like me People who understand my true feelings We have all gone true a lot together fought against so many foes together as allies and defeated all our enemies together I must say, you all are the family I once lost and I wish I can always stand by your side but unfortunately, all good things must come to an end” Derik spoke slowly so that no one would miss a single word. Everyone present could tell this was not a prepared speech, everything Derik had said so far was from his heart, his true emotions!

“My time with you all has been cut short The legend of the disappearance of all those who found a way to reach the demigod realm is not something that can be overlooked anymore It’s not false The life mage and I have reached the peak stage that any mortal can reach and we have broken past it in no distant time, we will break through to the Demigod realm and we will vanish from the face of this world as well It may be unexpected coming from someone like me but I have to be honest with you all and myself But I don’t want to be forgotten I wish you all will remember me when I am gone”
