Chapter 170 170: Success Or Failure...

Lancaster's speed at the moment was even faster than his speed was when he fought Atlas last night! It was even impossible to see him as he moved. He was like a ghost who appeared from one place to another in an instant with his sharp teeth around the neck of the Mages. He tore their necks off.

The mages who used spells in unison couldn't do anything if they couldn't even see Lancaster. Even Yovana didn't know how Lancaster suddenly became like that. She had some spells of Lilith that she could use to stop Lancaster, but that was only possible if she knew where he was.

It was impossible when Lancaster was right in the group of her dead.

One after another, the dead kept falling to the ground. They didn't scream in pain or cry. They just lifelessly dropped to the ground as their heads were taken off.

Everything happened so fast that before Yovana could control things, all the men she sent to stop Lancaster had been killed.

The Werewolf finally made an appearance again, revealing its bloody fangs!

Lancaster didn't stop after taking out the ten mages. He ran straight to the center of the city as if he really wanted to show Yovana that she was wrong! He wasn't weak! He was strong as well! He could take care of himself and take her out! He wanted to prove it to her by destroying her.

Yovana was also taken aback.

She tried to send some mages who were fighting Atlas to stop Lancaster.

Unfortunately for her, the battle here wasn't easy either. Lancaster's roar was so powerful that it echoed in the entire city. Even Atlas heard that roar. Seeing some mages try to go toward the Roar, he understood that Lancaster was winning or already won. That's why Yovana was sending backup to him.

"What's the hurry?" Atlas laughed. He cast a flight spell on himself and started rising in the air, getting a clear view.

He cast another spell. This time, it was to block the Mages that were trying to leave.

A beautiful blue barrier appeared all around the mages, trapping them in a small box. It was the same trick that Lilith had used to stop the mages. However, unlike Lilith, he didn't stay inside the barrier prison to stop the mages. Unlike Lilith, his goal wasn't to delay them. Instead, it was to take out Yovana.

He was sure that the barrier couldn't even stop the mages for one minute if he wasn't inside to keep them busy. All of them could put their entire efforts into breaking the Barrier and soon destroy it, freeing themselves. However, that small duration was enough to give him time to get some lead on them.

From one side, Lancaster dashed like a shadow. On the other side, Atlas also flew as fast as he could. Both of them were going in the same direction, and both had the same destination.

The Mages that were trapped in Atlas' barrier destroyed the barrier and flew after Atlas. However, just as he expected, the distance between the two sides was not little.

The mages split up. Half went to stop Lancaster while the other half attacked Atlas from behind, failing to hit him.

Atlas was the first to reach the core, closely followed by Lancaster. They both succeeded.

However, just as they were about to destroy the core of the formation, Atlan opened his eyes.

An amused grin was on his lips as he abruptly stood up. He grabbed Lancaster by his fur, but before he could do anything, Lancaster stabbed his sharp teeth in Atlan's hands, making him groan.

He tossed Lancaster away before shifting his attention to Atlas. "You're too late. But not your fault. You all just arrived here too late, when I was already almost done. Did my nervous acting make you think you still had time?"

"You people always fall for my acts. And here I thought, you would've learned something from last time." Yovana had taken over Atlan. She was Atlan now... At least her soul was.

Atlan looked at his arm where Lancaster had bitten. He could feel a small amount of venom in his veins. It wasn't enough to affect him though.

Lilith also landed beside Atlas. As soon as Yovana's soul has changed bodied, her control over the dead was gone. All the dead bodies dropped to the ground, allowing Lilith to come here.

It was unclear if it was because she couldn't control the dead when she was in Atlan's body or if it was because she just didn't feel the need to use them anymore now that she had succeeded. In any case, it was an undeniable fact that she had succeeded.

"You three... You lost again. But as I said, you're not my enemy. I don't want to hurt you. If I wanted to, I could've killed Lilith in the castle itself. As for Lancaster, I could've killed him as well. And I can still kill you all... Well, all except Atlas. But I don't want to go that far."

"I've succeeded, and you've failed. You can fight me and lose, or you can leave and let me continue on my path. That's also a third option. You all can side with me. My offer still stands. But remember, all choices have consequences, so think without bias. Don't take a decision that can lead you all down the path of destruction."

Yovana had already succeeded, and she was also an immortal now. Even if they fought her, they couldn't kill her. Was it really worth it? That was what she was implying at the moment.

Even though there were still ways to send her soul out of Atlan's body, it was unclear if they could succeed.

Atlan took a few steps back, waiting for their answer. He didn't look like he was going to run away.

Lancaster returned to his real form, standing beside Atlas. They actually had failed, but it still wasn't the end. He glanced at Atlas, wondering what his decision was going to be. Were they still going to fight? Or we're they to let her go after all this?

They only needed the Key Fragment from Atlan. They had no friendship with him at all. So it wasn't worth it to fight to free him. In his head, Atlas considered the possibility that he could just ask for the key fragment from Yovana in exchange for letting her be free.

He could use any excuse, and he could even succeed. But if he did that, it came with many complications as well. They were essentially giving freedom to Yovana in exchange for freedom. She could become an obstruction in his path later on... There were so many possibilities.
