The Steward Demonic Emperor - Chapter 1234: Return to Your Roots

Connor Drails has always been a nobody—until the day he unleashes powers he never knew he had. Now, he's drafted into the YMPA, a secret academy where teenage mages train as spies to fight dark forces threatening the world.But the real danger isn’t just the brutal training or twisted classmates—it's the MSTO, a shadowy organization with a deadly branch called the TSA, and they want Connor for something terrifying.Between missions, betrayals, and a forbidden crush on the untouchable September, Connor must decide who to trust before he loses everything—even his soul.

She was the Empire’s top-tier elite agent, skilled in both medicine and poison. One day, she transmigrated into the body of a foolish, mentally disabled, and hideously ugly waste. But when her soul entered, the Phoenix Maiden returned, shaking the heavens and the earth! Those who wronged her will be repaid a hundredfold. Those who insulted her will pay back a thousandfold. Call her useless? Wait and see what true genius in cultivation looks like. Call her a fool? Wait and see who the top-tier alchemist really is. Say no one wants her? Watch as the strongest man follows her everywhere. From now on, divine beasts and handsome men will walk by her side, and she’ll roam the heavens and earth as she pleases.‘Qingcheng, from now on, I’ll help you manage the household and raise our children. This world and I will belong to you!’ said the scheming man with a flattering smile.The woman coldly met his gaze and replied, ‘The world and its empire are within my grasp. Now, get lost!’

Introvert!? Me!? The hell am I an introvert? I stay indoors all day because I am afraid of getting my butt kicked.Until I contract my beast, I won’t be walking freely. This is a promise I made to myself.My name is Ryder, and I am black-marked. The planet where I live is dominated by summoners.

There are five different types of marks—the brown, the orange, the red, the black, and lastly, the white.Of all the markings, I was marked black. I was chosen by a supreme demon monarch of the Astral Shadow Plain—the Dracogon.There was only a 0.5 percent chance for me to survive the contraction process. However, with a slight twist in the original outcome, contracting a creature from the black-marked plain was nothing compared to the catastrophe I caused shortly after—I opened a link between the beasts of the Astral Shadow Plain and the planet of humans, Terra.Everyone on my planet has been endangered because of me. The fact that no one knows when the link will trigger and cause a breach that pours mindless creatures into my world makes it all the more unsettling.Now, with no other choice, I have to find a way to resolve the mistake I made—alone, just like I caused it.
