Mary.

The soldiers and other members who were watching could not help but shiver in terror. The whole hall area was now melted and the walls were totally crumbled and frozen ice from before was now melting. The scene they witnessed was simply terrifying.Just how much damage it would cause if they fought any longer.

In previous times, whenever they were battles for the throne, it was the same as now then. The ones who will fight certainly be pretty strong ones. Sometimes, the battles continued for days, and other times they ended in just a few hours.

Now, this battle was already continued for more than half a day. Carl and Mary were fighting for a very long.

Carl has already seemed very frightening with just his presence and now his attack was even more terrifying than that. He remained unfazed and stood still staring at the dark spot where Mary has knelt down.

Mary was breathing hard and was out of breath. It looked like she suffered some during the last attack. Kaiser was also affected by the chilling aura and had trouble breathing.

Seeing that Mary grew even more anxious. She wanted to fly away with Kaiser but she didn't have the strength in her to do so. She was barely holding herself.

Carl certainly has grown stronger than all of them. The last attack was stronger than she had estimated, it took a lot of her to defend against it.

Carl was going all out, not intending to live either of them alive. He had started putting so much into his last attack. He was not planning on giving them even the slightest chance to escape.

Mary looked at Kaiser, he was breathing cold steam out of his mouth. He seemed to be affected by the freezing cold from an earlier attack. He was already in a bad shape and the situation turned even grimmer. Jian was also not in good shape.

At this time, Mary's whole body glowed with bright light and after the light faded, she was turned back to human form.

Carl narrowed his eyes while tilting his head. What was she doing?

She moved back to Kaiser and said, "Kaiser, We don't have much time. Don't ask anything and stay still."

"Why!" Kaiser tried to ask her but she silenced him.

She ignored him and sent a message to Jian.

Didn't know what to do, he fell silent. He couldn't help her nor he couldn't ask her what was she doing. He bit his lips and was feeling very frustrated with the situation. Even before he could fight, he was already injured and was holding her back.

He was kneeling with his hand held on his chest, desperate for breath.

Mary made some hand gestures in the air swiftly and a few rosy red complex circles of about 5 meters radius were formed under them.

Carl who saw these red circles guessed what she was trying to do. So he dashed at her full speed and he raised his claw, slashing down at Mary and Kaiser.

But before his attack could reach them, Kaiser's body slowly started to get sucked into a point at the center of the circles. The circles were formed, with Kaiser as the center.

Kaiser couldn't do anything but be helplessly drawn by a strong force. The force dragged his body. Before he was sucked through the center, he saw Mary move her lips.

"Kaiser, Live well."

His mind went numb and he couldn't hear a single thing except for words. It was like the whole world stopped moving. He could clearly see Mary smiling at him filled with warmth.

He could hear those reverberating in his ears. Then he disappeared into thin air right before Carl.

"This bitch has teleported him somewhere." He coldly stared at the spot Mary from where Mary has disappeared.

Mary changed back into human form so that she could use the last of her remaining energy to send Kaiser away. She knew it well, she can win against Carl. She has already used so much mana and there was only a little bit left.

At the last moment, she decided to send Kaiser far away from here, so that at least he could survive. For using teleportation magic, a large amount of mana would be required. As she didn't have enough for both of them, so she decided to teleport Kaiser out of there.

Mary was very heartbroken about the loss of her son and her people. She could not take revenge for them and Kaiser who was unrelated to all of this has faced near-death experiences twice including now.

Throughout the years, Kaiser has grown among them, and also she might have considered him as her second son. That was how much she prioritized his safety.

She wanted to save Kaiser even at the cost of her life. So she decided to send him out of this star, using her magic ability. If she sent him somewhere here on this star, Carl would easily find him and kill him. So, she decided to send him far away from this star.

He had transformed into a human form. He walked down the hall and reached the throne which was under the rubble.

Boom

He cleared the rubble with just the flick of his hand. Then all the rubble has been cleared and the throne was revealed.

The huge throne was not affected by the fight and was the same as before. The dragons who were there on either side of the throne had collapsed but the throne remained.

Carl walked in slow steps under the eyes of all the people present. Their eyes were filled with fear and they looked at Carl as a terrifying monster.

Carl reached the throne and turned around, then he sat on the throne, leaning back, resting his chin on his right hand. He gazed upon everyone from there.

Then everyone present there came out and started kneeling in front of him without anyone saying. It was clear that from now onwards, he was the emperor of this empire.
