Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1351

Merle was shocked upon knowing that the Rule Soul Avatar couldn't shackle the purple-eyed fiend. He realized that he had been too naive just now. What if the fiend decided to kill him?

He clenched his fists as his face darkened at this thought.

"Xavier, what do you mean you can't shackle him?" Merle quickly asked through his spiritual sense.

"He's not affected by the Shackle Laws that I can use."

The Rule Soul Avatar felt that the blood of the purple-eyed fiend had a strong ability to disperse various laws.

Technically speaking, the Shackle and Attack Laws in the mining area couldn't affect the fiend at all. It meant that more powerful laws existed that fully imprisoned the purple-eyed fiend, and the laws in the mining area were only auxiliary ones. The Rule Soul Avatar was able to analyze this because he had neutralized the laws in the mining area that restrained the purple-eyed fiend so that the fiend could activate the power in his blood. This, in turn, enabled him to break more advanced Shackle Laws.

Therefore, right now, the laws that the Rule Soul Avatar had mastered were not able to suppress the purple-eyed fiend.

"You actually have a good sense of what you can or can't do. That's impressive." The purple-eyed fiend let out a faint smile, staring back at the Rule Soul Avatar with sincere eyes.

"What are you waiting for? Why are you still here?" the Rule Soul Avatar asked.

"Why am I still here? I wish it's that simple to leave this place." The purple-eyed fiend only said that he had the ability to leave because he wanted to frighten the Rule Soul Avatar. However, the truth was that the entire mine was under the jurisdiction of a powerful fiend god. With just the purple-eyed fiend's strength, he would not be able to escape. Moreover, the mine was sealed with a powerful force. Those restrictions were not something he could easily break.

Only then did the Rule Soul Avatar realize that he might have overestimated the abilities of the purple-eyed fiend all along. The power of his blood should only have a relatively stronger prowess of dispersing various laws, but it still couldn't break the restrictions.

"But why are you still staying here in this mining area?" The Rule Soul Avatar deduced that even if the purple-eyed fiend couldn't get out of the mine, he could at least leave this specific mining area.

"What are you saying? Of course, I'm waiting for you. Your ability is really astounding. You must have found a way to break the restrictions of the mine, right? Just tell me what I need to do, and I'll lend a hand." The purple-eyed fiend was pretty confident that the Rule Soul Avatar was the only one who could help him get out of there.

"Why are you so sure? I don't think I can do what you're saying," the Rule Soul Avatar replied with a hint of confusion in his voice.

"Well, I didn't ask you to do it now. You still have about three hundred years to be able to do it. However, if that amount of time elapsed and you were still unable to break the restrictions, then I would give up on you. And also, I would have to kill both of you," the purple-eyed fiend said calmly, letting out a threatening smile.

The Rule Soul Avatar didn't utter a word and averted his gaze. The purple-eyed fiend took his silence as agreement to his demands.

Merle, on the other hand, was quickly infuriated. He deemed that this fiend was being extremely arrogant. However, he also knew that the fiend was pretty powerful, thus if he really wanted to kill the fiend, he might not stand a chance. 'Just you wait. One day, I will merge with you, ' he thought to himself.

"By the way, be careful when you're collecting the Blood Stones. The old monster is so possessive of them. If he discovered that you're secretly taking them, you might suddenly die without any warning," the purple-eyed fiend reminded them.

"Mind your own business," the Rule Soul Avatar answered coldly. Then, he sat on the ground with legs crossed and began to refine the Order Law.

At the same time, in a cave inside the mine, an old fiend was sitting with his legs crossed. Beside him was a pale-looking human with a visibly large wound on his hand. From it, blood flowed down and dripped into a transparent cup.

"Distinguished fiend god, the two humans were able to free Prince Leland. Shall we kill them now?" a figure in black reported to the old fiend what had happened in the mining area.

Before answering, the old fiend casually took a sip on the cup filled with blood.

"No need to rush. It seems that there is a Defiant Master behind those two humans. We can wait for a while and see what happens," the old fiend answered.

"As you wish. What about Prince Leland?" the figure in black asked.

"It's fine. Don't do anything to him for the time being. Let's see what kind of tricks he is going to pull with those humans," the old fiend instructed.

"Yes, sir," the black figure replied and immediately vanished.

Meanwhile, in the Tussle Region of the human territory

"Darren, we have good news!"

Gatlin arrived and went to see Darren excitedly. Darren had asked him to just call him by his name, so he did as told.

"Is it about the killing points?" Darren asked expectantly.
