Chapter 313: Despair

Upon hearing those words, the corner of Charles's lips twitched.

"A wise person once said: There is always be someone better at something than you are... It seems I've underestimated the Elder Anthony of White Household." He said in a calm tone and then smiled.

Meanwhile, Isaiah got stunned for a moment, widened his eyes, and stood up from his seat.

He then took out a strange crossbow from his space ring, loaded it with a silver bolt, and aimed at Charles's head.

"You will die, son." The same eerie voice came out of Elder Antony's mouth.

Upon hearing those words, Isaiah's whole body went stiff.

Meanwhile, Charles didn't even look at Isaiah's face and completely locked his gaze on Elder.

At that moment, images of Eve's final moments flashed in front of his eyes.

Her final words appeared in his head.

"Take care of yourself, son!"

Although he never thought of her as his mother, he knew what she had done to save him from Red Prince's schemes.

He still felt mad when he thought of her death.

After a long silence, Charles suddenly leaned his back against the sofa and spoke while pointing his finger at Isaiah.

"You guys have two choices now. First, I want him to execute his daughter in public and give her head to me as a present."

His voice contains a trace of coldness and craziness.

Just as he finished his words, a bone-chilling aura appeared in the room.

"You got some nerve, kid!" Elder Anthony stared at him with a deep look and spoke coldly.

Anyone could tell that he was pissed right now!

On the other hand, Isaiah also got enraged and stared at him like his mortal enemy.

A chuckle escaped out of Charles's mouth.

He then smiled lightly and said.

"You got angry just by this? Do you think your daughter is an innocent girl? Saron killed my mother in front of my very own eyes, old man. Do you know how it feels when someone destroys the thing that you value most? I'm not an unreasonable person. Actually, I'm quite a forgiving guy. As long as Isaiah cut Saron's head and give it to me as a present, I'll let this off. I'll not go crazy and kill all people who have 'White' as their family name. So, what you do say?"

It was a direct threat!

But would any father cut his own daughter's head to save other family members?

Never!

Although some might do it, Isaiah wouldn't.

Elder Anthony also knew of his decision and stood up from his seat.

'This young man is dangerous... He might be a peak Rank-4 Mage! Do I have no choice but to sacrifice myself to stop this crazy guy?'

Although he understood why this young man was after his granddaughter's head, he would never allow to his request.

Elder Anthony let out a deep sigh and spoke.

"It seems I've no choice but to stop you here."

Saying so, he raised his bone staff and pointed its tip at Charles's head.

"Revenge is not an option, kid." He added.

Upon hearing those words, an amusing smile appeared on Charles's face.

"The ax may forget its action, but the tree always remembers." He paused for a moment and then asked while standing up.

"You still didn't know your position, do you?"

"Know my position?" Elder got startled a bit and stared at him in confusion.

The next instant, Charles flicked his finger, and the whole surrounding started to change!

The surrounding walls, sofas, chairs, portraits, and other things in the reception hall began to burn and soon disappeared!

The next second, Elder Anthony and Isaiah found themselves standing in the middle of a land filled with fire, lava, and strange red plants.

Even some gigantic vortices appeared in the dense elemental areas and seemed to be connecting this Pseudo-Domain to the real Fire Elemental Plane!

The surrounding air also appeared very hot, causing a suffocative feeling to both of them.

But what made them yelp in pain were the hot embers that spread all over the ground!

Upon seeing this, Elder Anthony's lips quivered.

"I-Impossible! H-How? To form a separate Domain, you need to be a Pseudo-Legendary Mage!" He shouted with a disbelieving look on his face.

At that moment, Charles casually waved his hand and made the whole Fire Domain shake violently.

The next instant, countless balls of fire, reddish-yellow spears made of lavas, fire arrows, reddish rays, and even a giant meteor suddenly appeared in the sky and started descending!

Upon witnessing such a scene, despair appeared on Elder Anthony's face!

He immediately moved his bone staff, raised it towards the terrifying reddish meteorite, and shouted in the nether tongue.

"Clesior!"

Just as he said that word, a massive magic circle appeared in front of him.

Simultaneously, he felt a slight pain appeared all over his body.

At that moment, a gigantic bony hand crawled out from the magic circle!

Even Charles got startled by the strange magic circle and furrowed his brows.

In two seconds, a brand new towering skeleton appeared in front of Charles's eyes.

The skeleton's skull was eerie black and had reddish soul flames.

It was more than 15 meters tall, held a bony scythe in its hand, and appeared gigantic.

"It's a peak Rank-4 Undead Giant." Elder Anthony said in a trembling tone and waved his hand.

In truth, he was testing whether he had a chance against a Rank-5 Existence.

The next instant, the gigantic Undead Giant skeleton squatted suddenly and shot towards the sky!

A second later, two bony wings appeared behind the skeleton, flapped on their own, and propelled the skeleton towards the meteor.

"Your Undead Giant is power," Charles suddenly spoke as he glanced at Elder.

"But you need more than a hundred of them to defeat me in my Pseudo-Domain."

As he finished his words, the reddish meteor, flame arrows, flame spears, fireballs, and other fire spells started to change color.

All of the spells suddenly turned into bluish-green color!

The next instant, the meteor clashed with the Undead Giant's bone scythe.

Simultaneously, the bluish-green fire spells landed on Undead Giant's body and started bathing it in bluish-green flame.

In two seconds, a painful roar echoed in the sky!

Then, the meteor directly slammed on the Giant's body and burned it!

Upon seeing this, Elder's body trembled.

He then let go of his bony staff, knelt on the ground filled with embers, and cried.

"Have mercy on us, Your Excellency."

Terror and despair filled his eyes.

"F-Father!" Even Isaiah got shocked by his father's breakdown and ran towards him.

At that moment, Charles nodded his head and flicked his finger.

Then, the whole surroundings shook violently and started to turn illusionary.

A second later, all three of them found themselves standing in the reception room!

But unlike before, Elder knelt a few meters away from Charles while Isaiah was trying his best to make him get up.

"So, what's your answer, Mr. Anthony?" Charles looked into Elder's eyes and asked with an evil grin.
