Darryl’s expression was extremely serious as he looked at the 108 concubines and enunciated, “All of you have shared the same bed with Donoghue before. Have you ever heard of him mentioning the Sky Breaking Axe? About its weaknesses or its drawbacks?”
That was right. Darryl called the concubines to his bed-chamber not to dominate them, but to ask them for solutions on how to deal with the Sky Breaking Axe.
After all, the powers of the Sky Breaking Axe were too terrifying.
Darryl clearly understood that it was unexpected he could hurt Donoghue during the daytime. He only had a chance of winning because Donoghue underestimated his opponents. If both of them were to give it their all with him using the Sky Breaking Axe, Darryl was no match for Donoghue.
During the day, those that chased after Donoghue came back and reported that Donoghue fell off a cliff and must have died. However, Darryl was still worried and got them to check at the bottom of the cliff. He told them to bring the Sky Breaking Axe back if Donoghue was indeed dead.
It turned out that when they went down to check, they found neither the Sky Breaking Axe nor Donoghue’s body.
Darryl knew that Donoghue was not dead upon hearing that, so he sent out a manhunt for Donoghue.
Darryl then gathered the concubines to ask about the Sky Breaking Axe in hopes of finding a way to stop it and be able to fight Donoghue more confidently in the future.
After all, everything has its pros and cons in the world. Even Grand Weapons were not perfect.
“Woo!”
The concubines looked at each other upon hearing that before shaking their heads.
“Your Majesty, we never talked about any matters when I accompanied Donoghue to bed.”
“Yes, I don’t know whether the Sky Breaking Axe has its faults or not.”
“I don’t know either.”
The concubines answered him. Darryl suddenly frowned hard and felt extremely depressed.
‘F*ck.’
Darryl was also stunned.
What did expanding the empire had to do with spending time with his favourite concubine at night?
Concubine Yara continued at that moment, “At that time, Donoghue said that he finally mastered the true secret of the Sky Breaking Axe which is that it’s not easy to use it during the day. Its full potential could only be maximized at night, so if he wants to lead an army to invade other mainlands in the future, he could only fight at night. He naturally won’t be able to spend time with his concubines at night anymore.”
“Woo!”
Darryl took a deep breath and fell deep into his thoughts upon hearing that.
‘The Sky Breaking Axe’s maximum powers could only be used at night? Why is that?’
Darryl realized something in the next second as his eyes sparkled.
Yes, it was as strong as a sun every time the Sky Breaking Axe’s powers exploded. It contained all the strongest and most virile energy in the world. However, it was not necessarily a good thing if this energy was used to the maximum. Things that are too hard and strong will be brittle and easily broken. If the Sky Breaking Axe’s sun-like energy reaches its terrifying peak state, Donoghue would not be able to control it and might be destroyed by that energy instead.
