Chapter 242.

Even though we were quite far away, the magic of the last queen was so powerful and vast that my whole body became numb. It reminded me of the Turtle Carrying A Mountain I had faced a few months ago. No, this mana was more ferocious.

"A monster like that was around, but the Holy Kingdom was still ruined? What kind of monstrous group was the Giant Tribe?" It was at that moment when I understood that the Giant Tribe was extinct. This level of power was enough to contend against my father.

Percival and Tristan shook their heads with puzzled faces at my admiration.

According to that theory, if an unknown existence from the reverse world occupied the body of the last queen, the current situation could be considered the worst. To think that the person who inherited all of the Holy Tribes possessions was not just any magician, but the one who became the Demon King, how terrifying.

Aries looked at me with astonishment. "How is it that you know of this?
