Emerald Castle had finally birthed its own King-tier powerhouses—
and not just one, but two at once!
Think about it: Ethan himself had just hit level 73.
What did that mean?
Sure, maybe he wasn't quite as powerful as Seraphina right now,
but he definitely wasn't any weaker than Malenthia had been before.
And hey, even if you're just barely at the bottom rung of the King-tier ladder,
you're still a King-tier powerhouse, right?
Of course you are.
And that's exactly where Ethan stood now—
a true force to be reckoned with.
"Master!"
"I did it!"
Seraphina's voice rang out as she blinked into place beside Ethan,
her face lit with a mix of excitement and emotion.
Truth was, she'd been under a ton of pressure lately.
The entire hope of Emerald Castle had basically been resting on her shoulders.
But she hadn't crumbled.
She'd held strong—
and now, she'd made it.
And what she'd gained wasn't just raw power.
