Novel Bin Chapter 756 Background Story
The reason why no one was able to find the leader of this monster army was because they only searched on the surface terrain.
Both Blackwall and Kahn had the Earth Sense skill which they got from the Mountain Titan in Verlassen, so they had found the location of the leader a few minutes ago.
It was hiding 5 kilometers deep in the ground in a network of tunnels and could command the army telepathically while being completely undetectable as even a 5th-stage saint couldn\'t search that deep in the ground unless they excelled in use of Earth element.
Thus, Kahn decided to propose a peaceful solution while trying to distance themselves from the unnecessary trouble that was to come in this temporary alliance. But now that the negotiations had failed, there was no need to play according to the rules.
Henceforth, it was every man for himself.
Meanwhile, all the other generals, Omega, Rudra and Edmund who were already informed about his next move darted towards the exit door leading to the next floor which was still closed.
But Blackwall had already acted after receiving the command.
With the usage of Terrain Manipulation skill, Blackwall killed the High Lord rank leader monster inside the ground by performing Live Entombment just like he did while fighting Axel\'s Blood Titan in the Vulcan empire.
Under the absolutely terrifying and crushing pressure of rocks, the leader was turned into a cube of meat and bones and died miserably.
It only took Blackwall 10 seconds to perform this feat and now, all the saints from their group headed towards the exit door.
A bright light flashed as the doors opened as soon as all of them finally reached the exit.
"Stop those bastards!" shouted the 5th stage saint who was fighting 60 kilometers away and led his group to fight against the endless army of kekiba.
Kahn and the rest already appeared close to the exit door and soon, the dungeon identified their group as the party to complete the condition of passage.
Just then, a group of 4 saints appeared close to the exit door. But everyone was a saint here. It only took them a second to cast a protection barrier while they passed through the door.
Legolas, who was the last one to leave, left warm and friendly parting words behind with two middle fingers as his figure disappeared behind the door.
"Adios… bitches."

At this exact moment, inside the capital Eletnall, particularly in princess Eleanor\'s palace, a somber atmosphere ensued.
"It\'s okay… you can tell me." she spoke with a heavy voice and held onto both hands of the person who sat next in front of her.
Her eyes were filled with sadness but her tone was full of affection and worry, revealing genuine care for this person.
"I\'m not proud of it… but since you\'re the only one I can trust wholeheartedly in this world. I\'ll tell you my story." spoke an individual with short white hair who was donning white clothes.
"I was born as a bastard of someone very powerful. Ever since I could remember, my mother went through a lot of hardships to raise me.
But she could never tell me who my father was, saying that it was for my own sake." spoke this male with a saddened voice.
"When I was only 20 years old, a group of soldiers suddenly attacked my village and massacred everyone.
I and my mother fled by were chased by hunting hounds till we reached the edge of a mountain close to our village." he iterated.
"In the end, we were almost found by the soldiers who were specifically coming after me for some.
But to save me…" he spoke and suddenly stopped.
A drop of tear fell from his eyes on the back of the palm of princess Eleanor who held his hand tightly.
"I was so weak, scared and pathetic that the only thing I still get nightmares about was the screams of my mother as the hounds tore her into pieces and killed her most brutally.
She sacrificed herself, offering as a distraction to let me escape that day." said the slim individual in white as a stream of tears ran over his cheeks.
"Only after surviving for a few years and coincidentally managing to the capital, I learned the truth.
My father was the… previous King." revealed the white-haired person.
Gasp!
"Does that mean?..." gasped and asked Eleanor.
"Yes. When he was dying, his legitimate heirs found out about my existence and sent people to kill me.
They killed all the villagers and my mother just because they wanted to find me." he revealed with a gloomy voice.
"After that day… I swore vengeance and made it my life\'s mission to exact revenge and take my rightful place." he spoke with a determined voice.
"For some reason… I was able to use the royal family\'s bloodline much better than other heirs. And with it, I managed to advance rapidly and unlock an ancient class named Spirit Archmage." he added, this time… his expression turned slightly grim.
"It took me 50 years to overthrow all those people who were after my life and become the King.
But in the end…" he spoke and looked at Eleanor with a defeated expression.
"I was betrayed and killed by my best friend and the woman I loved.
Only in my final moments, they told me the truth.
That they were using me since the beginning to get the throne." he spoke with great pain, his eyes tearing up incessantly.
Swoosh!
Just then, Eleanor hugged this individual tightly and spoke in a soft tone.
"It\'s not your fault. It\'s them who took advantage of your kind and trusting nature.
I promise you. I will never leave you alone.
I will be with you… till the last line." she spoke and caressed his cheeks.
Before the other party could react…
Smooch!
Eleanor intimately kisses him while he on the other end, tightly embraced her.
At this moment, the princess of the Zivot Empire was kissing a person who wasn\'t supposed to be present in the capital at all.
To the outside world, this person should still be fighting inside the Immortal Dungeon. In reality… he was actually fighting inside the dungeon at this moment but somehow, an identical person… no, he himself was kissing the princess passionately.
Because this white-haired person was none other than…
Ervalen, the Hero of Life.
