Chapter 416: The Cursed Land
🕑 Added 2025-09-07 05:25:56 +0000 UTC"Black Rabbit, it's alright. Thanks to Lord Blake's rescue, this is how it should be. After all, I was just a prisoner before." Seeing Black Rabbit scolding the three problem children again, Leticia shook her head slightly and said calmly.
"This..." Hearing this, Black Rabbit was speechless.
"Tch, the Demon Lord kid got all the benefits again, can't you share some with us?" Izayoi Sakamaki scoffed, looking quite puzzled. He could naturally understand what Leticia meant. Blake had saved her, so it was fine for her to become Blake's maid.
"Stingy."
"Biased." Asuka Kudou and Yo Kasukabe also pouted.
"Leticia is a whole person, it's impossible to divide her into several parts. Alright, we've arrived, let's stop chatting." As the ultimate winner, Blake smiled smugly and then pointed to the land in front.
This also made the others look over.
However, when they saw the scene before them, they all frowned. The original children of No Name showed gloomy expressions.
It was a desolate piece of land, as if hundreds of years had passed, completely barren, losing all signs of life. It gave the feeling of a lost land, without any value to speak of.
"Hey, Black Rabbit, was No Name's predecessor attacked hundreds of years ago?" Scanning the scene before him, Izayoi Sakamaki frowned and asked seriously.
Not only Izayoi, but the others also looked at Black Rabbit.
"Not a hundred years ago, to be precise, it was attacked three years ago." Black Rabbit said with loneliness and pain.
"Three years... it turned into this in just three years? The Demon Lord's power is truly terrifying." Squatting on the ground and grabbing a handful of the explosively hard soil, Izayoi Sakamaki's purple eyes flickered as he said in a deep voice. This was the third time he had witnessed the power of a Demon Lord. Each one was terrifyingly powerful, shocking him.
"Three years..." Asuka Kudou, Yo Kasukabe, and Shirayuki-hime, the three newcomers, also fell silent.
"Demon Lord kid, how do you think this Demon Lord who attacked No Name compares to you?" Then, Izayoi Sakamaki suddenly looked at Blake and said.
This also made the others look over.
"Haven't fought, don't know. In a normal state, I probably wouldn't be his opponent. If I fought with my life on the line, then it's hard to say." Hearing this, Blake said casually.
"Hehe, interesting. Fighting with your life on the line, huh..." Hearing this, Izayoi Sakamaki murmured.
"Um, Big Brother Blake, is there still hope for this land?"
Just then, Lily couldn't help but tug on Blake's sleeve, asking expectantly and nervously.
"This is cursed land, under normal circumstances, it should be hopeless." Blake patted Lily's head, then squatted down as well, grabbing a piece of soil and frowning as he said.
"...Not even Big Brother Blake can do anything...?"
Hearing this, Lily's fox ears drooped, looking dejected.
The other children were the same. Black Rabbit and Leticia, who already knew the situation, didn't react because they hadn't held any expectations.
Having experienced that change, they knew exactly how strong the opponent was.
However, Blake's sudden words in the next instant stunned them and everyone else.
"Although under normal circumstances it's indeed hopeless, if we have this thing, then there's no problem."
After saying this, a cyan light orb suddenly appeared in Blake's hand, and a faint ticking sound could be heard.
The powerful life aura made everyone feel refreshed.
"Lord Blake, this is...?" Black Rabbit looked at the thing in Blake's hand in astonishment, her pretty face full of shock. The life energy contained in this light orb was terrifyingly abundant.
"It's called the Essence of Land. It can remove any negative effects from the land, improve the quality of the soil, and make it grow into Immortal Earth. The fruits and grains cultivated from it have the effect of strengthening the body and improving talent." Hearing this, Blake pressed the Essence of Land into the barren soil with an unchanged expression and explained.
"What...!!!" Hearing this, Black Rabbit, Leticia, Yo Kasukabe, Asuka Kudou, and Shirayuki-hime all showed shocked expressions, instantly understanding the preciousness of this thing.
It was something whose value was no less than some extremely powerful Gifts! Judging by the fluctuation of this life aura, it could even bring the dead back to life.
However, Blake used it without even blinking. How could this not shock, move, and admire everyone?
"Lord Blake..." At least, rich and colorful lights appeared in the eyes of Black Rabbit, Leticia, Lily, and Shirayuki-hime. Asuka Kudou and Yo Kasukabe's impression of Blake also improved, and their favorability soared.
The other children were the same. They truly acknowledged Blake as their nominal leader.
"Demon Lord-sama has so many good things." Izayoi Sakamaki also clicked his tongue and looked at Blake with admiration. After all, Blake's previous impression on him was that of a battle maniac. He didn't expect him to have such a kind and generous side.
Hearing everyone's exclamations, Blake's lips curled up slightly. Just as he was about to say something, the land began to change, causing everyone to gasp softly, their faces showing ecstatic expressions.
