Chapter 68 - Attempts To Save Vin
"What are you daydreaming about, Your Majesty?" the woman said into the ear of the man on the throne. That man is her husband.
The man didn\'t answer, his gaze was so blank and cold. Nothing has managed to melt his hard heart so far.
"You still think about that woman, my king?!" snapped Alceena.
Well, it\'s Alceena. The most beautiful woman from the Land of Fotia. She is indeed a native of this Fotia Country. A woman who was King Feu\'er\'s concubine for over 250 years. She was the mother of the second prince, Prince Felius.
King Feu\'er stood still on his throne. I don\'t know where his mind is. All this time, he had always been cold to Concubine Alceena, the woman who had bestowed him a handsome prince named Felius, the youngest prince of Fotia Country.
"I\'m fed up with you, Feu\'er! Why are you still thinking about that traitorous woman, huh? Remember, Feu\'er! That bitch has left you just to hook the leader of these 3 realms! She\'d rather be with Jack Greyrat than you, Feu\'er!!" Concubine Alceena shouted, angry.
"Stop it, Alceena!" King Feu\'er rose from his throne. His emotions began to peak as he recalled the betrayal.
Well, the betrayal of his empress, Zenko, mother of the first prince, Zarius.
"Why? Isn\'t it so painful like this? Why don\'t you ever think about my feelings, Feu\'er! Are you angry and disappointed now? That\'s exactly how I\'ve felt for the past 250 years, sob sob...." Alceena\'s tears broke. She could no longer be treated as if he were an inanimate object that did not need attention.
King Feu\'er looked regretful. He pulled Alceena\'s body and brought Alceena into his arms. King Feu\'er gently stroked the head of the woman who had been faithful to accompany him.
"I\'m sorry, My Wife. I just need some time to get over it." King Feu\'er spoke.

A woman is walking gracefully in the hustle and bustle of Beijing. Every eye is watching her. Her appearance was so strange. The woman was wearing a long dress and a light purple fur coat.
Well, she was the woman who appeared from Sifeng\'s painting earlier. Suddenly a dog ran towards her. The woman ran as fast as she could until she collided with a handsome man, with long red hair. They rolled down onto the lower side of the garden.

-The Palace of the Mermaids-
Lord Jack is assisted by several healers who are still trying to heal Vin. A few days ago, the First Prince of Fotia, Zarius Schneider, brought Vin to the Mermaid Palace.
Vin\'s condition was very weak, all of his life energy and spiritual power had been absorbed by the Feu\'er King to augment the greedy King Feu\'er\'s strength.
Since then, Lord Jack and the elders of the court healers have been together trying to cure Vincent Greyrat.
However, it seemed that the efforts of Lord Jack and the healers were in vain. Vin had lost all of his life energy, maybe only 1% of Vin\'s previous life energy remained.
The chance of Vin surviving with just such a small amount of life energy was 10%. Vin\'s body is getting weaker day by day. Vin\'s body, which was previously white, now looks paler white.
Lord Jack felt that his youngest son\'s condition was exactly the same as 50 years ago when Vin was a baby, Vin who was powerless because of Lord Jack\'s greed to rule the Three Realms at that time.
However, at that time Lord Jack made every effort to save his son. Including breaking the Laws of Heaven, which resulted in Lord Jack having to be sealed in the Black Mountain for several years. Until someone of pure blood saves Lord Jack from the seal of the Black Mountain.
Lord Jack looked sadly at his son. He couldn\'t bear to see his son like this. How can the son that he saved with his life, is now back in the condition when Vin was born for the first time.
Lord Jack was stunned for a moment as he began to despair at not being able to save Vin. Lord Jack\'s hands were tightly clenched.
"I have to do it right now! Yes, there is no other way even if I have to violate the Laws of Heaven! I have to do it again to give my son life," said Lord Jack firmly, which confused all the Gods in the room.
"What do you mean, Leader? Don\'t make such a reckless decision, I beg you! You will repeat that painful fate, Leader!" said the Mermaid Queen who was none other than Lord Jack\'s mother-in-law, the mother of Queen Eliz.
"But this is the only way, Mother-in-law. The way to make my Vin immortal again," said Lord Jack.
"But it will be bad for the harmony of these 3 realms, Leader!" The Mermaid Queen spoke.
A moment of silence, they were silent with their own thoughts. Lord Jack still clearly remembers how he was sealed before.
(Flashback_On)
-Lord Jack POV-
Three hundred years ago, I first met a human. A general from Han. He was the friend who was later used as a border guard by my ancestors.
His name is Wu Shunxi. A border guard is not from the land of the Gods. They are human beings who have privileges, they have a lifespan of more than 100 years. They have special blood.
A border guard was assigned the task of guarding the entrance gate to the World of the Gods.
In the end, we were separated because I had to stay in the Black God Mountain. Yes, a beautiful place at the bottom of the Black Sea. The place where life began. A place heavily guarded by the strongest Gods from the 4 directions.
After several centuries, the ancestors of the Gods in the 3 worlds created their own god world. They betrayed the ancestors of the Land of Fire-Water.
Until the moment the Meteorite Jade descends, I ask for a wish. I want all the Gods to reunite under the reign of the King of the Fire-Water Country. Yes, under my rule.
The Meteorite Jade granted it. However, I don\'t think the true meaning of METEORITE JADE is that there are advantages, as well as disadvantages.
Well, I just found out that the life of my youngest son, Vincent Greyrat, was the price to pay for my request to the Meteorite Jade.
At that time, my heart was really broken. I didn\'t expect that Meteorite Jade would want my son\'s life in exchange for my request.
But, by the time I realized that, the Meteorite Jade had disappeared. Jade meteorites descend once every 1000 years. And only the strongest God is able to use that special stone. However, the special stone was not yet time to descend.
Actually, we have quite a bit of Meteorite Jade flakes. However, it was kept by our ancestors. But, only the shards could not save Vin. Maybe if Vin was human, he would be helped by that Meteorite Jade shard. But, Vin is an immortal God. Just a shard of Meteorite Jade would be of no use to my son.
In the end, I violated heaven\'s decree and sealed some of my power in my son, Vincent Greyrat. It was a grave offense for any God.
Even though I had to pay for it by being locked up in the Black Mountain, I felt relieved. Even though I was desperate at the time, would I be able to see my son grow up?
For years I was confined to the Black Mountain. However, during a blizzard, I felt someone approaching my place. I could feel warm red blood running through his body.
That means, the ones approaching me are from the human race.
Back then, I was sure he wasn\'t from the land of the Gods. And yes, he released my seal. Somehow, until now I also do not understand.
I don\'t remember the human face that saved me. At that time there was a very big snow storm. I only remember him holding a small rectangular object that could emit fire.
Before I got to know the human figure, I had lost my consciousness. Being sealed for years in the Black Mountain made my body weak, my strength has disappeared.
Until a few moments I can open my eyes again. I\'ve been in a room with various coral ornaments on each wall.
I saw 3 small children running around. Their faces are very handsome. However, my eyes are fixed on a child who is about 30 years old, maybe in the human world it is the same as a 3-year-old child. His body is small, maybe still as high as my waist.
His smile was so beautiful, his lips were red as blood, his eyes were as beautiful as mine.
I got up and approached him.
"What\'s your name, Son?" I kissed his little hand.
