Three days after they stole tens of thousands of gold from the merchant.

"These are the last materials that you needed," Isabella handed Maximus a storage bag.

"Good, now we only need some strength to finish the mission," Maximus said as he took the storage bag.

After all, all kinds of tricks are meaningless in front of overwhelming strength.

"It should be," Isabella said as she came to a spare room to train.

The Illusion trial mission needed to be done by Isabella personally; otherwise, it would be considered invalid.

Maximus could only do his best to assist her.

...

Maximus went into another room to create a bomb.

"Let's start."

He didn't know how to create a bomb initially, but with his system, everything is possible.

[Bomb creation: Transcendent(Max)]

A week later...

"Finally finished!" Maximus excitedly muttered.

Using a mortal body, he created a concentrated bomb with his bare hands.

"But this is not enough," Maximus said, looking at the huge lump of metal with a conspicuous amount of energy.

Just the energy the bomb is emitting, anyone with a brain will know it's dangerous.

"It needs more polishing," Maximus said as he stood up.

Feeling a little tired, he went to Isabella.

...

At the dining table:

"How is your progress?" Maximus asked while eating.

"It's not bad; I already reached tier 1 official knight," Isabella said proudly.

"Good!"

It only took her a week from mortal to tier 1 official knight, which is amazing.

This is due to her experience and talent; the illusion trial can simulate anything, and talent is one of them.

"But the malice of the illusion is getting tougher," Isabella said with a sigh.

"What happened?"

"Earlier when I was going out to shop, someone recognized me."

"Apparently, the reason I was imprisoned is because I'm a remnant of the previous dynasty."

"Oh? This should be the reason why you need to kill the current king," Maximus said after pondering.

ραndαsnοvεl.cοm "Yes, I even gathered the confidants of the previous body, ready to attack at any time," Isabella said.

"Then we should be more low-key, wait until you at least reach tier 2 before we begin doing the mission," Maximus said.

"Alright."

...

A month later, in Maximus's room:

"Now everything is ready," Maximus looked at the small lump of metal that looked like a stone.

During this month, he finally reached tier 1 official mage, which made it easier to polish the bomb.

With sufficient mana, he engraved in various rune formations making the bomb portable and more lethal.

Now it was capable of killing a tier 4 sky knight a hundred times over.

As for the tier 5 lunar knight, it was nigh impossible.

...

A week later, in a valley hidden in the forest:

Maximus looked at his wife, Isabella, working up the morale of her confidants before attacking the king.

All of this was for the hidden mission after the illusion trial mission.

This is like a bonus stage to get more blessings from the illusion trial.

Isabella guessed that it involved managing the kingdom after killing the ruler.

"Now follow me for a brighter future!" Isabella yelled.

"Yes, your majesty!" the people saluted solemnly.

"Are you ready?" Maximus said as he grabbed Isabella's waist, causing the group of people who were solemn just moments ago to feel annoyed.

"How dare a bastard dirty your majesty," one of the people below cursed inwardly.

They came to know Maximus because he was the one who helped Isabella escape prison.

Maximus was also the one who was funding them—at least that's what their majesty said.

"Don't be too clingy," Isabella slightly struggled in Maximus's embrace.

"Oh? You don't like me anymore?" Maximus pitifully said as he hugged her further.

"Bastard!" Isabella blushed as she cursed, seeing the people in the back looking at them with bewildered expressions.

"Hehe."

"Let go, it's time to end this," Isabella finally surrendered and hurriedly said.

They were in the valley hidden in the forest.

When they caught the news of the king's hunting activities they quickly set up an ambush.

"Here, take this when you get close to the king," Maximus said as he took out the lump of metal.

"Is this the weapon you said that can kill the king?" Isabella looked at the lump of metal and Maximus with a puzzled expression.

In these three months, she reached tier 2 Great Knight.I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

If she was alone, she would have trained herself for a few more years until she reached tier 4 sky knight to be sure.

However, Her husband told her that she only needed to get close to the king, so tier 2 Great Knight strength was enough.

But looking at the lump of metal in her hands, she suddenly questioned if this thing can really kill the king.

"Don't worry, I spent most of my time on this. Trust me," Maximus said sincerely.

"If you say so," Isabella trusted her husband very much, so she didn't question further.

...

In the forest:

"Those rebels should be nearby," The King, Bash inwardly thought as he leisurely hunted.

Hunting was merely a guise for him, as he aimed to catch the rebels.

As for why he even bothered with these weak rebels?

Well, it was all for the treasure in the castle.

Originally, he conquered this kingdom for the supposed tier 6 Inheritance.

Bash came to know that the kingdom's founder was an injured tier 6 Stellar Knight.

This injured knight built the kingdom for the continuation of his bloodline.

Originally, it was an overlord of the land, expanding vast amounts of territory.

However, without a talented heir, the kingdom quickly declined with each generation.

When Bash came to the kingdom, the ruler was merely a tier 3 Earth knight.

Seeing that he was close to getting the inheritance, he quickly sought the said inheritance.

But unfortunately for him, the inheritance needed the blood of a living descendant to open.

When he looked for it, they were either already dead due to the chaos or had escaped.

As for Isabella, she was captured by his subordinates, but before Bash came to know it, she escaped.

...

A few miles away from the king:

"We're only a few miles away, prepare for the encirclement," Isabella said as she looked through the telescope.

"Yes, your majesty," the people said as they scattered.

They were only here to look for the possible escape of soldiers and more importantly for merit.

As for the king, it was for Isabella to handle.

"Let's go!" Isabella said to Maximus.

As the two came nearer, before the king noticed them, Maximus forcibly cast a tier 3 spell to knock out everyone.

All of them suddenly passed out, except for the king who was alert and promptly cast a barrier.

"Go!" Maximus said, sitting down nearly fainting.

Casting a spell above tier is possible as long as you have transcendent mastery and enough mana amplitude.

But looking at his state, he would probably not do it lightly in the future.

"You're here!" King Bash said with a grin.

Although he was shocked that all of his guards had been knocked out.

But seeing that Maximus was exhausted and Isabella, who was charging towards him, was only a tier 2 great knight, he was confident.

Clang*

A clash of swords ensued as Isabella clashed with the king.

Originally, she was only supposed to get close and diffuse the lump of metal Maximus gave her.

But this unique experience of life and death was a rare opportunity.

"Oh? It's indeed a descendant of tier 6 stellar knight," Bash said, leisurely parrying the attack.

"Hmph," Isabella activated a forbidden technique to further boost her strength.

"It's useless, obediently surrender if you still want your life," Bash said with a smile.

Seeing that Isabella was such a beauty, Bash decided to let her live after using her to open the inheritance.

Seeing the king's lecherous gaze, Isabella became angrier, urging the forbidden technique regardless of her life.

"Enough!" Bash finally lost his patience.

After all, if Isabella suddenly died due to the secret technique, then all of this would be for naught.

Who knows when he would find the next previous royal descendant?

Bash used his powerful blood and mana to suppress Isabella.

With a slash, the sword in Isabella's hand flew out.

Bash took this opportunity to bind Isabella with the magic weapon he had prepared.

"Hahaha, the inheritance is mine," Bash joyfully said, looking at Isabella tied up.

"Unfortunately, I'm still no match for a sky knight with my current skill," Isabella sighed, looking at her tied-up appearance.

The reason she fought with the king was that she had heard about the various combat abilities of prodigies in the Arcane continent.

Crossing one or two tiers was as easy as breathing for them.

Like her husband, easily knocking out everyone.

Isabella didn't want to be a burden to her husband so she thought of trying, but looking at her current state, she could only sigh.

Taking out the lump of metal from her pocket, she clicked the button.

The metal suddenly expanded as a white-like matter enveloped Isabella, and a huge explosion ensued.

Booooom!
