SUPREME ARCH-MAGUS

Chapter 444 To the BirthPlace!

The night in the Ron family residence was quiet, but heavy with emotion. Kent spent his final hours with each of his girls before his departure. Each of them held a special place in his heart, and with each, he shared a unique bond that went beyond words.

In the dimly lit chambers, Kent moved from room to room, spending time with each girl in private, giving promises, taking vows, and offering guidance.

With some, there were lingering hugs filled with unspoken words, while others shared tender kisses, sealing their connection before he left. A few shared moments of passion, the eternal flame of love and desire burning brightly in the short time they had together. The emotions ran high, but Kent remained calm, his strength reassuring each of them that this was not goodbye forever.

As dawn approached, the Ron family estate felt the weight of their farewells. The early morning silence is filled with unspoken feelings, and as Kent made his way toward the exit, he was met by Fatty Ben. Fatty tried to put on a brave face, but his eyes betrayed him.

"Master, you don't need to worry, I'll guard this place like a loyal dog. No one will lay a hand on it." Fatty Ben said with a laugh, though the moisture in his eyes was unmistakable.

Kent placed a firm hand on Fatty's shoulder, his gaze serious but filled with warmth. "I'm leaving peacefully because I know you're here, Fatty. The Dimensional Key—keep it safe. When I go to the Spirit Realm, you can follow with that key. Cultivate hard, and don't let anyone look down on you, understand?"

Fatty, still smiling, nodded with enthusiasm, though his voice trembled slightly. "You got it, Master. No one's gonna look down on Fatty Ben, not even a celestial!"

Kent chuckled. "Good. And stay out of trouble."

Fatty's grin widened. "No promises there!"

After a final conversation with Jia, where he reassured her that they would meet again soon, Kent left the Ron family estate in silence. This time, instead of flying on his golden throne, he chose to walk.

The inter-realm teleportation gate was situated inside the Heavenly Abode, and as Kent walked through the estate's grand pathways, the baby dragon padded beside him, playfully swishing its tail. Ruby and Kavi followed on the left, while Jabi sat comfortably on the right, watching over them all.

Onlookers in the estate stopped in their tracks, eyes wide as they hurriedly made way for Kent and his entourage. The sight of a dragon, even a baby one, was enough to leave many speechless.

For some, it was the first time they had ever seen such a majestic creature. Whispers spread through the crowd, but no one dared to approach the man who commanded both reverence and curiosity.

As Kent neared the teleportation gate, Lily herself came out to receive him. She stood tall, her posture commanding, but the moment her eyes met Kent's, a flicker of emotion passed through her face. She quickly masked it with a more professional demeanor.

"So, everything's set?" Lily asked, her voice serious, though her gaze lingered on Kent longer than usual.

Kent smiled softly, a rare gentleness in his eyes. "Yes, my dear," he replied with a cheeky laugh.

For a moment, Lily was taken aback. The warmth in his voice, the way he spoke to her—she wasn't used to such direct affection. But she quickly recovered, realizing that Kent was now acting as her partner, at least publicly. She managed a smile in return, though her heart raced.

"Good, I'll give the command for everyone to prepare for departure. Just a short delay." She said, her voice regaining its composure.

Without missing a beat, Lily raised her hand while holding stagg, and a clear, authoritative command rang out. "All disciples of the Seventh Realm, prepare for departure!"

Within moments, 7,000 Quinn family disciples stood in perfect lines within minutes, their faces serious as they awaited further orders. They had come to help Simon during the beast gathering, and now they would finally leave this realm.

However, there was a palpable tension in the air. Whispers spread among the disciples as they saw Kent standing beside Lily.

Thea, keenly aware of the situation, deliberately stood among the other girls, keeping her distance from Kent for now. She knew the complications of their past, and the last thing she wanted was to draw attention to herself at this moment. Yet, her heart ached at the sight of him, and she couldn't help but steal glances in his direction.

The disciples, along with the servants of the Seventh Realm, were visibly confused. Just days ago, Kent had been their opponent during the Immortal Beast Spirit Gathering. Now, here he stood, side by side with their commander, and there was no mistaking the closeness between them. Yet, despite their confusion, no one dared to speak out.

The aura surrounding Kent was overwhelming, and his connection with Lily made it clear that questioning him was not an option.

Lily retracted the magic castle and ensured that everything was in perfect order. Once she was satisfied, she signaled to the wizards of the blue planet who were operating the teleportation gate.

"Activate the formation!"* she commanded.

In response, millions of mana stones were poured into the formation runes, lighting up the intricate symbols carved into the stone floor. With a loud hum, the teleportation gate roared to life, the portal swirling with power as it connected to their destination.

Lily and Kent exchanged a look, and without a word, they stepped forward together. Walking side by side, they entered the teleportation formation, their steps in sync. The air crackled with energy as the portal enveloped them, and in the blink of an eye, they were gone—leaving behind the Blue Planet and stepping into the unknown once more.

Behind them, the 7,000 disciples of the Quinn family followed in perfect lines, their thoughts heavy with uncertainty.
