927 Demien is Coming!

On Annie's sixth birthday, Vicente was still at his family's side, having returned to Metal City in Scott Province after months of traveling with his family.

Over the course of about a year, the group traveled through the Kenyth Empire, the Chutha Dynasty, the Seidel Kingdom, and three other kingdoms, visiting the major strongholds of the Cataclysm Order and ensuring the loyalty of the order's key members to Annie.

In addition, in each of the places the family visited, Vicente helped the local forces by building new armor and improving the old artifacts, as well as the defenses of the cities and human domains.

During these months, he got some more materials to build four more 6th stage armors and left them in the southern region to help the humans in their future travels.

After doing all this, Vicente secretly led his family back to Metal City, where they lived one day at a time, preparing for his departure.

Unfortunately for Annie and Vicente's wives, their last day together on Polaris Real would come on little Annie's sixth birthday!

...

At the Fuller mansion, in the center of Metal City, Lina, Layla and Nova found themselves face to face with Vicente in what looked like a sauna. There was so much steam surrounding them they could not see the walls of the room.

The four sat around naked, glasses of wine in hand, enjoying the evening together after putting Annie to bed.

It had been a good day. Besides cultivating and receiving updates on the situation of the family and the south of the continent, they had eaten all the meals of the day together, with each of them having the chance to be alone with Vicente for a few minutes...

Now they were relaxing in this underground area, when their smiles and relaxed comments suddenly stopped as Lina dropped her cup. Her expression changed instantly, leaving the relaxed, cheerful smile behind to tighten her muscles, her eyes narrowing as her skin turned pale.

Vicente looked at his wife in silence and sighed, not needing Lina's ability to understand what it was.

"Lina?" Nova asked before the princess looked directly into Vicente's eyes.

She said, "The time has come. Demien Bloodthorne and his 6th stage vampires are nearby."

Layla and Nova felt their hearts crushed by Lina's words and realized that their time with Vicente was over.

"So here we are." Vicente got up from where he was sitting with his women, not happy at all, but willing to do what was necessary.

"How much time do we have, Lina?" Nova asked, her voice trembling. "Are they coming here?"

Lina shook her head while explaining her ability. "What I saw is what could happen. But if Vicente shows up, they probably won't come to Metal City. They'll go after him. As for time, we should have a few days at most."

"That's too short." Layla clenched her fists, realizing he would have to leave immediately if he wanted to secure the family's fate and take the battle far away.

"You should prepare to leave. Half of the metal cities between the center and the south of the continent are as safe as this place. Staying here after I leave could be dangerous." Vicente warned as he headed for the exit of this area.

The three followed him, aware this was a farewell, possibly a final one.

Their eyes were watering, and their breathing was quickly becoming notable.

But they had been preparing for this moment for months. Even though they were sad and nervous, they didn't want to make this moment more difficult for everyone.

Vicente said, "I will move and leave traces for the enemies. I'll take the battle to the border of the Chutha Dynasty and the Andoria Kingdom. That might give us more time. But it's likely that I'll be fighting Demien and his troops in less than a week."

Nova grabbed one of Vicente's wrists as he dressed and said, "Don't worry about us. We'll take every precaution and keep Annie safe. Just be careful with Demien. Run away if you can't defeat him."

Vicente finished dressing and nodded to his wife before looking into each of their eyes.

He gestured for them to come closer and hugged them simultaneously, with Lina on his left, Layla on his right, and Nova in the middle.

"No matter what happens after I am gone, you will always be in my heart. In life or death, I will do everything in my power to see you again. Just don't lose hope, no matter what happens. Just keep going until we meet again."

They couldn't hold back their tears, feeling like the most vulnerable women in the world, even though they were already powerful Paragons of five pentagrams, commanders of the most powerful human forces on the continent.

For a minute, Vicente comforted his wives before returning to the most important issue. "Monitor the places I've marked. As soon as I receive vampire bodies, I'll send them to these places. The waiting experts must absorb the blood from these corpses, and the alchemists must produce resources.

When the result of my journey arrives, the strongest on the enemy side will seize the opportunity to move and try to regain the strength they lost because of me. This will be the most difficult time for you in the short term, so be prepared."

"All right."

The three agreed to do what he wanted.

"Nova, I want you to have this." Vicente took off the Dragon's Amulet and placed it around his blue-haired wife's neck.

"The Dragon's Amulet won't be so useful to me when I go to the Supreme Continent. I could reach the indigo grade at any moment, so it will hardly help me in battle. And although it won't have the same potential in the hands of someone other than me, it can help a lot of Paragons like you."

Even though Vicente was the one who had gained the Dragon's Amulet, anyone who possessed the item could use it. The difference was that while he had an affinity with all the elements of the amulet—so he could use it completely—someone without these affinities could only use fractions of its powers.

The Dragon's Amulet was strong even for Archmages, so even a fraction of its power would be enough for Nova.
