Starting from primitive world, building the strongest divine kingdom

Chapter 180: Norma's True Strength



Norma turned, smiling, and replied, "Can\'t I come?"

Enzo had never fully understood Norma\'s intentions. He sensed that the strange energy from their physical exchanges benefited Norma, but he was sure she had no personal feelings for him; otherwise, she wouldn\'t have wanted to see him fight Charles.

Norma was aware of her own strength, and she knew Charles was no match for him.

Her true aim was the test she initially mentioned—eliminating the Blue Wolf Family.

Now, Norma had intervened.

What was she up to?

As Enzo pondered, Norma spoke again, "Don\'t overthink it; I just think the test can be conducted differently."

Enzo didn\'t believe her words.

Meanwhile, the two guards supporting Charles looked increasingly grim. They knew Norma and her bar, which was modified with spatial power.

In Blue Wolf Family\'s investigations, Norma was an extremely mysterious figure.

Her identity and strength were unknown.

But opposing Blue Wolf Family meant being an enemy. The guards said, "Ms. Norma, do you know what you\'re doing? If you\'re protecting this guy, you\'re siding against Blue Wolf Family!"

Norma suddenly laughed and told them, "Even old Charles wouldn\'t dare say that! Blue Wolf Family? To put it nicely, it\'s Blue Wolf. To put it harshly, it\'s just a dog doing others\' dirty work!"

The words plunged everyone in the vicinity into an eerie silence once again.

The Blue Wolf Family was a formidable entity at the Flamingo Gathering Place, not something ordinary people could provoke.

Yet, Norma, the mysterious owner of Stone Tavern, had openly insulted the entire Blue Wolf Family. People sensed that something significant was about to happen. To maintain their reputation and authority, the Blue Wolf Family would not let this go.

The young man and the beautiful lady might end up as corpses.

Enzo also sensed something amiss.

From the moment Norma stood before him, her demeanor seemed off.

But Enzo had no time to ask why.

As Norma finished speaking, the Blue Wolf Family seemed to receive the message; dozens of spatial portals appeared around them, and Blue Wolf Family members surrounded Enzo and Norma.

Leading them was the current head of the Blue Wolf Family—Old Charles.

Old Charles glanced at the injured Charles, his face darkened, and addressed Enzo and Norma with a calm yet imperious tone: "Who did this? Step forward now and sever your own arms!"

Norma stepped forward, saying, "You old fool, you really have a big mouth."

Enzo also stood up, smiling as he said, "I\'m terribly sorry. Charles claimed to be the best of the Blue Wolf Family\'s descendants, but I didn\'t expect him to be so weak, unable to even avoid a simple spatial blade."

His words, filled with mockery, made many onlookers laugh.

The laughter was unbearably harsh in old Charles\'s ears, and he was furious. He commanded all the family members present, "Everyone, attack together and kill those two!"

Enzo, eager to try out his newly acquired spatial abilities, was ready for action.

However, Norma stopped him and whispered in his ear, "This time, just watch. Save your strength; I don\'t want to miss out on tonight\'s fun."

Feeling the invisible force restraining him again, Enzo was fuming and wanted to curse.

But this time, Norma had learned her lesson—this invisible force kept Enzo\'s mouth shut, preventing him from speaking.

Meanwhile, Norma observed the members of the Blue Wolf Family.

Her gaze was dismissive as she floated in midair, and with a cold voice, she delivered the ultimate judgment to the Blue Wolf Family: "Die!"

In the next moment, countless blades of space sliced through.

She killed the members of the Blue Wolf Family instantly, without giving them a chance to flee.

The ordinary people below had already cowered in fear, kneeling on the ground.

When Norma descended again, no one dared to meet her gaze except Enzo.

Seeing Enzo\'s grim expression, Norma felt an uncharacteristic pang of guilt. She released the invisible force restraining him and said with a smile, "If you\'re angry, you can get your revenge tonight!"

What was in this woman\'s mind!

Enzo inwardly cursed her, asking, "Why did you do this?"

He added, "I want the truth."

Norma was about to offer a dismissive answer but stopped, her mood darkening as she said, "This is my mess. I can\'t let you fix it. Also, I\'ve come to understand some things."

Enzo\'s tone softened, "Can you tell me about it?"

Norma asked, "Do you want to hear it?"

Enzo opened a spatial portal, pulling Norma back to the inn\'s bedroom.

Once there, he roughly pinned her to the bed. After venting his anger, he calmed down and said seriously, "I don\'t like others making decisions for me."

Norma, her tone weak but still provocative, replied, "Then you need to get stronger."

Enzo snorted, then asked, "Can you tell me your story now?"

Norma sat up and extended her hand to Enzo, saying, "First, give me a bottle of fruit wine."

Enzo had to retrieve a bottle from his pocket world and handed it to her. After Norma took a large gulp, her face reddened slightly, and she continued, "I was born into the Ice Moon Royal Family, with royal blood that\'s both supreme and a burden. Each year, a princess is chosen to be offered to the Moon God."

"What is the Moon God?" Enzo asked.

Norma corrected him, "The Moon God isn\'t a person but a deity."

Another deity?

Like Rexfit?

Norma\'s voice continued, "Years ago, I was the chosen princess. But the day before the ceremony, I chose to escape. I left the Ice Moon Royal Family, left Dark Night Forest, and eventually went to the ancestral land where I met Melissa and took on a mentor."

"I learned about the supernatural from my mentor and sensed the spatial element."

"Later, as my power reached its peak, my mentor told me that to continue improving, I might need special artifacts. So, I left the ancestral land."

"I returned to Dark Night Forest and opened a tavern here."

"I don\'t know if escaping back then was right or wrong, but I should at least go back and check. I still have a sister in the Ice Moon Royal Family…"

After listening, Enzo didn\'t offer any opinions.

He simply said, "Regardless, you should trust your choices. And if you run into any trouble, you can count on me for help."

Norma was amused.

He teased, "With your little skills, you dare to talk like that? Although your talent is decent, your current strength is still too weak. If you want to help, you\'ll need to train more."

Enzo shot back, "I seem to recall someone being defeated in front of that palace."

Norma hastily defended herself, "That was only because something unusual happened to you. Otherwise, you would have been no match for me!"

Enzo insisted, "Even so, it\'s a fact that you were indeed defeated by me."

Norma had no rebuttal.

She turned away, lying down on the bed, and ignored Enzo.

Enzo decided not to pursue the topic further and instead asked, "Norma, what exactly is the ancestral land?"

He had heard about the ancestral land from Heru and the late priest Sovita when he first arrived in this world. It seemed to be the origin of all tribes.

But to Enzo\'s surprise, Norma shook her head and said, "I don\'t know."

Her tone became uncertain as she added, "I don\'t even remember how I ended up in that place called the ancestral land, and how I left is also very fuzzy. It felt like a dream, an incredibly vivid dream. I asked Melissa about it, and she felt the same way."

Enzo inquired further, "And what about the mentor you mentioned?"

Norma thought for a moment before saying, "I do remember a bit about my mentor. Her name is Isabel. She controls life force and is very knowledgeable."

Isabel!

Hearing that name, Enzo was stunned.

Enzo confirmed again, "You\'re saying that you and Melissa\'s mentor is named Isabel?"

Noticing Enzo\'s shock, Norma turned to ask, "Is something strange?"

Enzo shook his head, deeply stunned.

In the mysterious cave at the edge of Qaidam Lake, he had encountered a time rift vision showing Barren Mountain Tribe\'s priest Maude and various tribe members in an adventure. One of them was named Isabel and controlled life energy, aligning with everything Norma had said.

But Norma claimed she met Isabel in the ancestral land.

With the vague information about the ancestral land from the Crimson Star Tribe, along with Mina\'s soul state, the scepter of the barren mountain, and the stone tablet, everything seemed to weave together like a giant web, pulling some truth from the mist but not fully revealing it.

It seemed he was close to the truth.

At that moment, a knock came from outside the door. A tavern staff member reported, "Lord Enzo, a person named Harvey has arrived at the tavern, claiming he\'s here to see you."
