‘What’s going on?!’
Marvin watched as that huge monster slowly rose up from the Sea of Nothingness.
The algae on its body fell, like a mummy’s bandages being unwrapped!
“My duty, is Destruction!’
A thunderous voice echoed in the sky.
The huge monster slowly opened its eyes.
Those eyes completely lacked vitality, looking like the eyes of a dead person.
But they were different from those of an undead. They felt like they were only filled with destruction.
At that time, the Book of Nalu in Marvin’s pocket suddenly became hot!
This thing had become more and more lively recently. Marvin frowned as he wondered, ‘Could that point of Divinity have made it more powerful?’
Marvin quickly opened the book, but before he could ask a question, letters already appeared on the book:
–Hahahaha…–
Marvin directly ignored the first line which was about the book taking joy in his misfortune.
–I feel the aura of a Destroyer, you are in great trouble, kid–
–Destroyers are rumored to be the never-before-seen sons of the God of Destruction–
–They were imprisoned by Ancient Gods as domain guardians–
–Normally, only after a domain’s guardian died would a Destroyer be awakened…–
–It would destroy everything it sees!–
…
Marvin suddenly understood.
Although the Book of Nalu had bad intentions, if not for it, Marvin wouldn’t have known about the origins of the Destroyer.
He killed Fati, and thus the Destroyer slumbering in the Sea of Nothingness was awakened.
This explained it well. If a guardian died, then it would most likely be due to an invader, so they would take them down with the Destroyer.
Marvin thought fast. For the Book of Nalu to come out on its own, it definitely had something in mind.
Could it be that it wanted Divine Source?
This time, Marvin wouldn’t give it Divine Source so easily. Although he wasn’t afraid of the Book of Nalu taking over his body, he still felt the book of Nalu was becoming more and more active. This wasn’t good news.
It seemed like he needed to restrain it.
But next second, the Book of Nalu offered a deal which made Marvin slightly hesitate before accepting it.
The deal was very simple.
The Book of Nalu felt another page within the Dragon Library and wanted Marvin to help get it.
It wanted to swallow another page.
As a reward, it would confuse the Destroyer for three minutes!
Marvin sealed the deal.
Because after the Destroyer took its first step, half of the coast collapsed!
With it going forward step by step, it would soon destroy the Demi-Plane.

After they reached an agreement, the page of the Book of Nalu automatically flew up and a faint yellow light spread out from the thin page.
The light covered the Destroyer and the latter’s movements suddenly stopped.
It felt like time came to a standstill.
The Book of Nalu could confuse people immensely, and even the ancient Destroyer couldn’t resist.
Marvin didn’t dare to tarry and quickly rushed to get what he needed.
He already had the Book of Forgiveness and only had to hand it over.
As for the page of the Book of Nalu, because of the resonance between the pages, he didn’t waste too much time on it and got the page.
He glanced at it, the page was unexpectedly the last page of the book of Nalu, the 11th page.
It was called [Reincarnation].
Reincarnation was sealed in an ancient amber. If not for the Book of Nalu’s pages resonating, no one would have noticed that this ancient amber contained a magical book page.
After taking care of those two things, he used the remaining time to look for the Wisdom Chapter.
Fortunately, the Book of Nalu needed to spend a lot of energy to control the Destroyer and was too busy to pay attention to what Marvin was doing.
This made it a lot easier for Marvin.
After all, he had to quickly find the Wisdom Chapter that would help him suppress the Book of Nalu.
A minute later, Marvin appeared at the edge of the lake.
After quickly taking a water breathing potion, he dove into the lake.
The layout at the bottom of the lake was very ingenious. The covers of the books were enclosed by special shells and air bubbles were there to prevent the books from being corroded by water.
Finding the Wisdom Chapter wouldn’t be easy. Marvin had to use Earth Perception and managed to find a conspicuous shell among the countless shells.
This shell was quite intricate and it looked very sturdy, but there was a layer of strange decorations on it.
It took a few seconds for Marvin to remember where he had seen that design before. It was the mark of the Ancient God of Wisdom.
That was most likely the Wisdom Chapter.
Time was pressing, so Marvin could only gamble.
Moreover, Fati was already dead. There was nothing to stop Marvin from plundering wantonly.
Although he was looking for the ancient book he needed, it didn’t stop him from taking all the books he saw on the way.
After two and a half minutes, Marvin left the lake.
The shells in this area had almost all been cleared out by him!
Marvin estimated that he had taken roughly 20 to 30 books. He now had more than 50 books in his storage.
This could be considered cleaning up the Dragon Library.
After finishing this, Marvin hoped to keep going.
He was still thinking of going to plunder the books in other areas.
Most of the time, knowledge is power, especially when it involved a library of the Dragon Race. Who knew what treasure would be inside?
But time didn’t allow for it.
The Book of Nalu roared, “Greedy brat! How many books do you need to get before you are satisfied?”
“The Destroyer is already regaining its mind. Although I can confuse it for a short time, it’s just delaying its awakening!”
“If you keep dragging your feet, don’t count on me!”
The Book of Nalu actually took the initiative to talk, which shocked Marvin.
In the past, this [Rebirth] page would use characters to communicate with Marvin.
For it to force itself to talk, it must really be unable to hold on.
After all, Destroyers were an incredibly terrifying ancient race.
Hearing this, Marvin gave up on his plan to keep going for more benefits and took the Book of Nalu to retreat.
The Dragon Soul had already told Marvin how to leave the Dragon Library. As long as he returned to his original place and said that Draconic sentence, he would be able to leave.
Although Marvin couldn’t speak Draconic, the Book of Nalu had already recorded the Draconic words for him and Marvin only had to pronounce those words the way they were written.
The Destroyer re-awakened on the shore and dragged its huge body to slowly move forward.
After a few seconds, the forest was close to being destroyed.
This scene was something alarming even for Marvin, who had already experienced the Great Calamity.
He used his peak speed to return to the mountain peak and quickly read that sentence aloud.
A halo of darkness shrouded Marvin. He glanced at the Destroyer’s sinister appearance before disappearing from the library!
…
Outside the pitch-black entrance, Marvin took a huge breath as if he had a new lease on life.
Although the whole process didn’t seem so traumatizing, the Destroyer’s smell truly made Marvin uncomfortable.
As for the Book
of Nalu’s exceptional display, it made Marvin more vigilant.
Thus, when he left the library, he chose to put the Book of Nalu’s [Rebirth] page into an unused storage item.
When it noticed what was happening, the Book of Nalu roared, “You want to break the agreement? You promised to let me devour another page!”
Marvin laughed, “I don’t plan to go against our deal.”
“But, although I promised to let you devour another page, I didn’t say when.”
“The time will depend on my mood.”
After saying this, he stopped bickering with the [Rebirth] page and put it in the depths of the storage item.
In order to be sure that this page of the strange Book of Nalu wouldn’t do something shocking, he put the other page in the ancient amber into a different storage item.
That way, he could guarantee that the two pages were isolated.
In spite of this, Marvin was still somewhat worried.
‘There seem to be some issues with that [Rebirth] page.’
‘Although Rebirth was said to be the safest page of the Book of Nalu, after being nourished, the spirit of the page seems very formidable.’
Marvin’s anxiety wasn’t without reason.
This page of the Book of Nalu had swallowed a lot of Divine Source. Moreover, it was still controlling the souls of people like Raven and Madeline.
If it wasn’t for Hathaway putting a restriction on his body before, Marvin might have already been controlled by it.
It became so active lately that Marvin also wanted to restrain it.
Without a way to properly control it, it would be better to keep it in storage.
As for that completely new page, [Reincarnation], Marvin was also quite interested. He would definitely research it when he had some time.
But he now noticed that his surroundings were a bit strange.
‘Even if it’s the same pitch-black entrance, the colors of the floor and the ceiling have changed!’
‘This is definitely not the 2nd floor!’
Marvin looked at his surroundings in surprise.
He suddenly heard a discussion coming from a corner.
Marvin subconsciously used Stealth, but was startled when he saw an acquaintance.
‘Hehe… Ikarina…’
‘I didn’t expect to directly reach the 3rd floor.’

Black Dragon Ikarina wasn’t acting alone. A man with a blue gown was next to her.
It wasn’t hard to guess that this was the Ancient Blue Dragon.
The two were whispering, apparently discussing a deal.
Marvin was unable to understand what they were talking about since they used Draconic.
However, Marvin had been discovered by Ikarina before, which reminded him to be more careful as the Dragons’ Perception didn’t seem to be affected much by the Chromatic Altar or temple.
The strength of Blue Dragons was average, but all the Dragons here were Ancient Dragons.
In fact, even if Marvin had Weeping Sky in hand, facing a Dragon that was able to use magic would be very troublesome.
Dragons were very sensitive to killing intent, so even if he sneak attacked, it might not necessarily go smoothly.
Marvin managed to kill Fati in one move, but this was partly due to luck and the other side underestimating him.
If it was a Chromatic Dragon, except for a Black Dragon, Marvin wouldn’t be able to deal with it easily.
He could take care of the Black Dragons due to the weapon’s power.
He had just advanced to Legend, after all. Although the Human Race had the best potential, potential needed time and effort to turn into strength.
…
Thus, after finding the two Dragons, Marvin didn’t act impulsively and kept a certain distance from them instead: not too far, yet not too close.
He knew that finding the Nightmare Boundary was most important right now.
Even if he wanted to kill Ikarina, he would have a lot of opportunities in the Nightmare Boundary, so there was no need to worry about it right now.
As they were getting closer to the Dragon God’s tomb, the aura of Divinity was getting more and more intense, and thus, lifeforms with Divinity were becoming more numerous.
But they were easily dispatched by the Dragons.
Marvin was following them so he had it easy. He didn’t need to make a move against the monsters.
In fact, it was said that the Dragon God’s tomb was below the underground temple, but this was a rumor. Who knew if it was true?
As for the Nightmare Boundary, it was said to be in a large hall on the 3rd floor.
Marvin’s surroundings became increasingly darker as he walked forward.
The 3rd floor gave out an oppressive feeling, as if there were a bloodthirsty beast hidden in the shadows, ready to jump out anytime to swallow them in one bite.
The statues on both sides of the hall and hallways became even more realistic, looking like they might come to life.
These were the statues of the Dragon Race’s Guardians.
But the strange part was that the expressions of the statues were very malevolent. They were completely different from the [Loyal Tidomas] Marvin saw on the 1st floor.
These were clearly made by another craftsman.
Some statues had some dreadful traps attached and Marvin didn’t dare to rashly touch them, so he could only look.
In short, the underground temple’s 3rd floor was a lot more dangerous than the previous two floors.
But it was a very smooth trip for Marvin as he relied on the two Dragons.
With the two Dragons exploring ahead for him, Marvin only had to sneak behind them.
Soon, the two Dragons in front reached a wide hall.
This hall was different from the other halls they had been through. There was a huge statue of the Dragon God Hartson there!
‘Looks like this is the main temple.’
‘This should be the place where the Chromatic Dragons and their descendants would worship Hartson.’
Marvin looked at the two people walking toward the statue. He chose not to entire the hall but to hide outside instead.
He found a place to hide and patiently waited.
Because if this was the entrance of the Nightmare Boundary, the two Dragons wouldn’t go far.
They needed to wait for the arrival of the other Chromatic Dragons before opening the Boundary.
Especially Green Dragon Modana, since she was holding the key to entering the Nightmare Boundary.
Just as expected, while Marvin was waiting, the two Dragons paced back and forth in the hall.
They occasionally talked in Draconic, but not much. At this time, Marvin really wanted to learn Draconic.
Not being able to understand their words was too detrimental.
Unfortunately, the Book of Nalu couldn’t be used for now so he had to think of another way to learn Draconic.
There might be a chance with Professor.
The Chromatic Dragons and Metallic Dragons both came from the Twin Planes, sharing the same origin, and therefore spoke the same language. Only their magic and attributes were different.
…
Marvin waited for about half an hour outside the hall, and in that time, not only did the Chromatic Dragons arrive one after the other, but one of his teammates also arrived.
In fact, when Louise crawled over to Marvin as a gecko, he almost cut her down.
Fortunately, she proved her identity in time, or else not only would Marvin have harmed his ally, but they would have exposed themselves.
Louise was a friend of Blade Master Kangen and was said to be an extremely powerful caster.
Since she was Kangen’s friend, she naturally was a powerhouse of the Dead Area. The Dead Area had plenty of hidden talents, so it was quite normal for Marvin to not
know about a powerhouse from there.
After greeting him in a small voice, Louise kept acting like a gecko.
Her Transfiguration skill was very mystical. There was no trace of Magic Power.
Perhaps she was bold due to being skillful, but after meeting with Marvin, she actually crawled into the hall. She was completely unlike Marvin, who didn’t dare to step inside.
Marvin wasn’t familiar with Louise. Both of them were basically helping out a friend, so it wasn’t that strange for them to work separately.
But it felt like this woman was provoking him.
‘She obviously could have greeted me without approaching. As a powerful caster, a bit of short distance mental communication shouldn’t be difficult.’
‘Crawling over as a gecko was just a way to test me.’
‘This woman is bored…’
Marvin’s mind was clear. Louise looked mysterious, but her behavior already revealed many details about her.
This woman would never be able to stay low-key or know her own place.
Marvin began thinking through events from his past life.
But a name like Louise was too common. Marvin had run into quests with three women named Louise, but none of them were powerful casters.
Blade Master Kangen and Professor had yet to arrive, which made Marvin a bit worried.
The Nightmare Boundary had four areas that might have the Crystal Statue and the Rainbow Spring. With only two people, their chances of getting the items would clearly be reduced.
But they apparently didn’t have time.
The Chromatic Dragons had already gathered under the Dragon God’s statue and were revolving around it while muttering softly.
Marvin decided to quietly sneak over.
The Perception of these Dragons was clearly at its lowest and Marvin was very confident in his Stealth.
How could he have expected that a very small voice would abruptly echo in his mind, ‘Why did you suddenly grow balls, kid?’
Marvin frowned and glanced at the gecko at the ceiling, but didn’t answer.
The other side didn’t use proper mental communication, instead only using a one-way communication message, which annoyed Marvin.
The feeling of her toying with him without being able to answer was really too hateful.
Thankfully, the Chromatic Dragons’ actions quickly diverted their attention.
