Chapter: 1239

If so, that meant that not a single king had managed to unfold the true power of the object.

None of the past owners of the staff were actually able to use the weapon.

The only thing the ancestors knew of the hidden power of the Divine Object was that it possessed the Ice Cold of Heaven technique as it’s engraved on the staff.

‘If so, that means he was chosen by the staff.... Does that mean that the staff chose someone, not from the family bloodline?’

Thud!

He knelt down.

It was even more shocking than when he first found out that Chun Yeowun had been chosen.

He had no choice but to think that the spirit of Dan Young, the first ancestor, was disappointed in his descendants.

‘Did we reap what we sowed?’

Maybe it was destined for the Divine Object to fall into the hands of an outsider.

Desperate, Dan Jucheon looked at the golden armor.

Chun Yeowun spoke to him.

“If you are planning to give up your life, I will behead you right here. But, I have one last proposition.”

“Proposition?”

“For you, the North Sea Ice Palace might be your final destination, but it’s the beginning for me.”

‘!?’

Dan Jucheon’s eyes widened at the word ‘beginning’.

He knew what it meant.

‘Is it possible... that he plans to be the strongest?’

The true purpose of the Lord of the Demonic Cult.

It was impossible for Chun Yeowun, who had the qualities of a king, to just stay as one of the five strongest warriors.

Chun Yeowun continued to speak.

“Are you satisfied with being just the king of this palace?”

“That...”

It was the future he had long dreamed of.

It was the lifelong wish of Dan Jucheon, who thought that he would always be the second choice for the people of the palace.

However, the next words that came out of Chun Yeowun’s mouth were even more shocking.

“If you swear allegiance, follow me. I’ll give you the position of Ruler of the North.”

“Ruler of the North!”

It meant that he wouldn’t be tied down to the North Sea Ice Palace but be made a person in charge of the outside world.
