Chapter 304: Forbidden Form
Everyone watched as Draco's body shattered into particles. The Seat of Demon stood straight, unable to move. As for the ladies, including Alya and Clara, they felt their hearts being choked, as if they were suffocating.
This wasn't all. The System Spirits—Xylara, Lilith, and Jessa—who were beside them, began to fade, making them all shocked.
"Xylara, what the hell is happening?" Azria cried out as he saw their fading existence.
"Master is dead. As his spirit, we are to accompany him," they said with a sigh. As the ladies heard this, they couldn't take it any longer and burst into tears—it felt like rivers of water.
When Xylara and the rest were about to vanish, Xylara turned to Alya and the others as she transferred information to them.
"It was Master that was supposed to find this, as it's rare. But since he's dead, you have to find it and wake them up before it's up to a year," Xylara said.
When the Seat of Demon heard this, they nodded to show they had heard, before watching their very existence fade away before their eyes.
The crowd watched this sad scene, seeing the expressions of the Seat of Demons. Even those who were enemies with him acknowledged Draco, as he had fought those two as a mortal. This was something worth passing down to future generations.
"Finally, we killed him. It seems we had no need for that, teacher," the young man said with a smile. Meanwhile, Vincent looked toward the place where Draco died.
He knew about Draco—such a weak person had given him a headache to the point that he had to release all of his strength to battle him. Even his student had to join the fight before they could kill him.
It was finally done. He had defeated and killed the filth from the world. It was a huge accomplishment, and they would be rewarded by the Heavenly Origin Dao.
As they said they should move and take care of the girls, they suddenly turned to see something shocking.
As Draco felt everything go dark, he felt as if he was sinking down into a cold pond. The deeper he went, the colder it became. He couldn't even think at all about what was happening.
He remembered leaving the girls, but he felt regret—regret at not being able to deal with the enemies, and also the fact that Vincent and the young man might kill Alya and the rest. He hadn't even cured the injuries of Ivy, Rose, and Lyraea.
This made him realize that there was still more to do, but it was already too late. Draco was overflowing with regret. He thought of things—what if he had run away with the others? It then occurred to him that he had two worlds he controlled and could have placed the others there for safety.
The Pet World and the Luminari Academy Small World. It was only now that these were occurring to him, making him feel more desolate in this lonely and desolate place—wherever he was.
"Draco Xandros," Draco heard his name called. He couldn't distinguish the voice—it sounded like both male and female, and yet like neither.
Draco felt confused. Even if he tried to move or do anything, he couldn't see, talk, smell, sense, or do anything. It was as if he was nothing.
"Draco Xandros."
"Draco Xandros."
"Arise."
Immediately after Draco heard his name called out, he was confused about what was happening. Then, as the word "Arise" was shouted, he saw a flash of light shining toward him.
"Draco Xandros, you can't die now. The burden on you must be completed. From now on, expect more obstacles," the voice resounded once again.

The crowd was already dispersing. Some felt happy and relieved at his death, while some were mourning for him.
Suddenly, everyone felt as if a terrorizing forbidden power had appeared—something that wasn't supposed to exist in the world.
Suddenly, a large rune spread through the space. Everywhere was shocked as they saw the particle fragments of Draco gathering toward their direction. This gave them a bad feeling.
Then, suddenly, before they could move, thunderclouds began to appear in the space, with a deep, enchanting red color that looked as if they wanted to annihilate the whole world.
Vincent and the young man who saw this were shocked as the scene unfolded.
This wasn't the Origin Heavenly Dao, but the Great Origin Dao.
The Great Origin Dao was like the mother of all Heavenly Dao. All Heavenly Dao scattered around the cosmos were created by it. The Great Dao was like the mother system compared to a child system.
This was the reason they were shocked that the Great Origin Dao was here. This made them a bit scared and curious about what was happening.
Red thunder began to gather in the cloud, striking fear into the crowd as they moved far away from the battle—even the Seat of Demon moved. Vincent and the young man also moved.
"Universe Annihilating Thunder!" both teacher and student cried out loud because they were shocked by what a deadly weapon the Great Heavenly Dao was using here.
Then the thunder began to descend, and where it was descending was the rune, as if it must eliminate this with all of its might.
No matter how the Great Origin Dao struck, it caused no damage to the rune. The rune was round in shape, like a formation. It was dark gray in color, having the aura of plainness.
If one looked closely, they would see something that looked like seven diagram-like letters on the formation rune—six at the edges of the rune, while one was at the center of it.
The unknown rune was absorbing the power of the Great Dao, and the absorption of Draco's fragments increased. Then, as it absorbed them, it flashed with a huge plain light. By the time everything returned to normal, they saw something that shocked them.
