Ezil watched the Massacre, horrified. She was strong but even she couldn't defeat the two most trusted warriors of her father, but Gabriel managed to kill them in the blink of an eye.
She was more scared than stunned, unable to believe that this was actually Gabriel. Gabriel glanced at Ezil, who took a few steps back subconsciously.
In the background, the door of the Carriage opened, as the carriage driver had informed the Clan Head about what happened.
The Clan Head of the Northern Dragon Clan stepped out as soon as he heard that his guards were killed. He carried a weapon in his hand, unaware about the identity of the attacker.
As he left the carriage, he could only find the body of one of his Generals. The other was simply missing.
In the distance, he saw Gabriel's back towards him. Gabriel was looking at Ezil who was stepping back in fear.
That gave the old man an impression that Gabriel was about to harm his daughter. Without thinking, he rushed ahead. The ground under him cracked, as his body brimmed with his Draconian Strength.
He thrust the Sword towards Gabriel's back. Unfortunately for him, before his Sword could even touch Gabriel, the man before him disappeared.
He felt a cold hand on the back of his head. Before he could react, his body rose in the air before being slammed into the ground.
Gabriel grabbed the wrist of the Clan Head, turning it to make the man's Sword face his own chest. The sound of his cracking wrist resounded clearly.
The Clan Head couldn't even resist as if some mysterious force was keeping him down. He could only watch his own sword facing him. His struggle was useless.
"Wait! The Promise!" Before Gabriel could deal the final blow, he heard Ezil's voice. "You said you'll fulfill one promise as long as it wasn't overboard."
"I-i want you to let my father live! That's my request!" Ezil exclaimed. Although she was not certain that Gabriel was going to listen to her, she couldn't watch her father die.
She put forth her request, remembering that Gabriel's purpose in coming here was to fulfill the promise. Initially, she didn't consider the true value of the promise, but now it was too late and she could only use it to save her father m
Gabriel glanced at Ezil, before looking back at the Clan Head of the Northern Dragon Clan. He released the man's wrist, letting his broken arm fall freely.
The restricting force also disappeared.
"With that, I fulfilled my promise." Gabriel spoke, as he turned around. All his connection with the Upper Realm was over now.
Ezil helped her father up, watching Gabriel leave. She couldn't even get herself to ask him to stay with them for a few days.
Her face was filled with regrets. If she hadn't looked down on him because her father's position had elevated, it would've been so beneficial for her and her clan.
With the kind of strength Gabriel had shown, he was in an entirely different realm than them. For some inexplicable reason, she even thought that if she had played her cards right, Gabriel could've helped her father become the true Lord of Upper Realm.
The Clan Head, who was previously laughing at the Four Generals for their foolishness, realized that he wasn't much different than them. The only difference was that he had someone to save his life, while they didn't.
Ezil helped her father stand up, and supported him, taking him inside the castle. The castle was sealed for the time being, with the Clan Head telling all the clan members to return.
The Clan Head also instructed everyone to be more careful when dealing with unknown people, unclear if there were other people in the Upper Realm as strong as Gabriel.
In the eyes of the world, the Clan Head of the Northern Dragon was the strongest expert in the world, but he knew that it wasn't the truth. There were many hidden experts in the world.
Some had chosen to live in seclusion or disguise their true abilities, making it difficult to discern their true strength. Nevertheless, the Clan Head had prioritized the safety of his clan and did not hesitate to take precautionary measures, even if it meant retreating.

After leaving the Upper Realm, Gabriel left the Upper Realm. A portal opened before him. He already had a destination in his mind. It was a place where he hadn't been for a long time.
On the other side, he stepped out of the Portal, standing in empty space. In the distance, a lot of rubble could be seen floating in space. These were the remnants of a world that was destroyed... These were the remnants of his world.
The last time he left this world, it was protected. His family lived here, and his friend lived there. But now, no signs of life were left. It was the world that didn't exist anymore. It was his home that didn't exist anymore.
He remained in the space, where his world used to be, just looking at the dark space. He could remember a lot of memories related to the past, memories that had a lot of sadness but also a lot of happy moments as well.
When he left this world, he had thought that he always had a home to return to, but now...
He grabbed a small piece of stone floating in the space.
"I am sorry..." He closed his eyes, apologizing. His heart was filled with grief, a feeling that was tormenting him.
He securely kept the piece of stone in his Spatial Realm. At the same time, he sealed this entire space. Although his world was no more, but this was still where his home used to be, and he wanted to keep it the way it was.
The entire space around the area was sealed in a dark domain, which no one should enter. This was his last action towards his previous home.
