Harem Overlord

Chapter 259 The Spirit Of Dark(Chapter Preview)

"Will she return to normal now?" Inari asked with a hint of fear in her voice as she glanced at Hela who had a cruel smile on her face.

"Don't worry, I didn't ask her to do this without having a way to stop her." Kai reassured her as he raised his hand and a gray-colored crown dropped on his head.

He made a circle shape in the air as a golden circle appeared in the air. He then pushed the circle in Hela's direction as the circle zoomed through the air and hit her body.

Hela's body went completely still as her nails and eyes returned back to their normal appearance. She then glanced down at Kai and landed down on the ground.

"There's no point in staying here anymore. More and more people will keep coming here to fight us and this city might get destroyed. We should probably leave for this palace of elements." Hela said to Kai as he nodded.

Inari on the other hand looked extremely surprised at how much Hela's personality changed within a matter of seconds.

"We will leave for it in two days. By then, I would have recovered enough energy to escape in case of danger though with you by my side, we can easily defeat any danger." Kai replied as Hela nodded and went away.

She walked towards the city with an expressionless face and after a few seconds, Kai and Inari couldn't see her.

"What was that thing you used on Hela?" Inari asked the second Hela was out of hearing range.

"I have the blessings of both Hela and Aizza. In the past, Hela wasn't able to control her powers and would go on frequent rampages so Aizza GA do create something to stop her. The circle I used earlier can suppress a person's powers no matter who they are. I suppressed Hela's powers and as a result, she returned back to her real form." Kai explained as Inari slowly nodded.

"But what's the point of going there when you don't even have a high cultivation? If that person really is the harem overlord then he probably has a golden divinity realm cultivation or even spirit immortality realm cultivation." Inari asked as Kai shook his head.

"There is no point in staying here either. Even if we don't go to him, he will come here himself so it's better to go there and not let him reach here." Kai replied as he looked at Yuan who was walking towards him with a dazed expression.

"What was that?" He slowly asked after reaching in front of Kai and Inari as his expression remained dazed.

"That was just a show of power. Don't worry about that since you will now have plenty of things to worry about. Since the king and crown prince is dead, there's going to be a huge battle inside the royal family to gain control of the continent. Since you are one of the strongest people left, don't let that happen. I trust you to handle this situation, Yuan." Kai said while placing a hand on Yuan's shoulder.

He suddenly broke out of his daze and nodded firmly. Kai then turned towards Mizaki who was standing in the distance with a bored expression.

It looked as though she had wanted to fight but was disappointed that Hela had taken care of everything singlehandedly. After all, she was the spirit of death.

Yuan then suddenly bowed down to Kai before entering the sect and vanishing in the distance. After Yuan was gone, Mizaki decided to come forward and talk to Kai and Inari.

"I am coming with you." She suddenly said as Kai and Inari exchanged a silent glance.

"Shouldn't you stay here and look after the royal family?" Kai asked as Mizaki shook her head.

"Staying here is a waste of my time and I would be useful anyways. Other than that, I don't care about the royal family enough to stay here and look after them. I would rather live in a forest than do that." Mizaki replied and walked away as Kai released a sigh.

"Why do such girls always come in my life?" He asked himself as Inari chuckled beside him.

"What do you think that girl feels about you?" She asked as Kai's expression turned thoughtful.

"Personally, she just feels like someone who wants to challenge the way the things are and also is always ready to take on a challenge. I can't say much about her since I haven't known her for a long time but still, that's all." Kai replied as Inari nodded.

"Do you want to stay outside or go back to the room?" Kai asked as Inari shook her head.

"No way am I staying trapped up in that room. I would go back to the abandoned realm but since those people from earlier still might be chasing me, it's safer to stay here." Inari replied as she retracted her arm and walked away as she left Kai standing alone.

He then teleported himself back to the room and laid down on the bed as two spiritual messages suddenly rang inside his head at the same time.

[ Kai, I have some bad news. ]

[ I just found out something that you won't believe and it's bad. ]

The first spiritual message belonged to Levina while the second one belonged to Mariel. Both of them had a twinge of sadness in their voice as Kai started wondering about what had happened.

Because of their connection, Kai and his harem could still talk to each other while being far away from each other.

He decided to first ask Levina about what bad news she had found out about since she had been the first one to send a spiritual message to him.

[ What did you find out Levina? ] Kai sent a spiritual message back as Levina replied instantly.

[ I found out that Siera reincarnated in my special realm. ] Levina's voice rang out in Kai's mind as he looked surprised.

Siera was the spirit of dark and was created by the creators to be Hela's replacement. In other words, she was basically Hela's copy without her rampage-going powers.

[ What about her? ] Kai asked back as he didn't know how this was bad.

[ The thing is, she reincarnated on my realm about a thousand years ago and died while being five hundred years old. ] Levina replied slowly as Kai was left stunned.

'Was reincarnated a thousand years ago and died while being of fifty years of age...' The words echoed inside his mind as a feeling of sadness overtook his body.

But despite that, he didn't feel as devastated when he had found out about Mia's death.

The reason for this was that Siera wasn't really his lover. She was like Inari and Hailis who were Kai's friends.

Despite that, he still felt as though he had lost a great component of his life since they had been great friends.

If not for the Darkness taking over Siera's body, she would probably have been alive now.

Kai then closed his eyes and remained silent for a minute before asking Levina the details.

[ How did it happen? ] He asked her while opening his eyes.

They looked normal but if someone examined them thoroughly, they could see spots of black color slowly covering the white area of the eyes.

[ She wasn't born with a great talent of cultivation and only managed to reach the heaven spirit realm. She was born in a small town and was the daughter of a rich farmer. She had spent her entire life cultivating and had died without having any heirs. From the investigation I did, I found out that she didn't regain her memories or her true powers might have unlocked. ] Levina replied as Kai slowly took a deep breath as the black spots in his eyes vanished.

"So you are already on your way to reincarnate huh." He muttered to himself before questioning Levina about her realm.

[ How are things going there? Any major changes you saw? ] He asked as Levina could tell that he was just doing idle talk.

[ The spirits here didn't really know how much time had passed but they had faith that I would return. I never noticed this much but time here moves a little too slowly so it was like I was gone for only a thousand years or so. It's surprising how loyal my people remain despite my absence for so long. ] Levina replied as Kai chuckled.

[ It's probably because they remember how badly you used to beat them in arena matches. ] He said as Levina went silent for a few seconds.

[ You just had to go ahead and say that, don't you? I am going away now. Some important matters are coming up since the economy is trash here. We Will talk later. ] Levina said her goodbye as Kai remained alone and stared at the ceiling.

He remained silent for a long time and looked lost in thought as he released a sigh and thought about how things had been going.

"Having a higher cultivation felt so good. Perhaps after having been overpowered for millenniums I had forgotten how great it was to have too much power. But now, I don't even have half of the power I used to have." Kai muttered to himself and sighed as he shook his negative thoughts away.

It wasn't easy to do this but his experience allowed him to do this.

'I hope Mariel's news isn't equally bad as Levina's.' He then thought silently before contacting Mariel.
