After some thought, Charles stood up from the floor, went near the throne canopy, and extended his right hand to take the silver crown.
But he suddenly paused for a moment, took two steps backward, and showed a solemn look on his face. Even though no anomaly appeared around him, he felt something was off about this silver crown.
'It's better to be careful.'
Muttering inwardly, he used the wisdom power to make the silver crown float in mid-air and stared at it in silence for a few seconds.
Then, he suddenly raised his hand, pointed his forefinger at the silver crown, and spoke in a cold tone.
"Come out."
Just as he spoke, the hovering silver crown trembled all of a sudden, and soon a foggy humanoid figure came out of it. Then, the humanoid fog landed on the cracked tiled floor, started to appear clearer, and then formed into an illusionary appearance of a young woman. But before Charles could inquire more about her, the illusionary face of the young woman started to twist while aging at an unimaginable speed, and her body also started to turn fatter!
Within a few seconds, she turned into a completely different person.
At that moment, she was an ugly-looking woman with long hair covering her whole head, a pair of ugly eyes that could even hurt anyone, and even had two more legs. In addition, she appeared quite overweight and wore a dirty, light-colored dress.
She was literally in a deformed state!
"Who are you?" Charles took one more step back and asked in a cautious tone.
On the other hand, the deformed woman let out a creaky laugh, grabbed the hovering silver crown, and spoke while offering the crown towards him.
"I'm nothing more than a remnant Will, young man. I choose you as my successor from now-"
But before she could even finish her words, a chaotic fire bullet filled with pure chaos energy came out of Charles's forefinger, moved towards the deformed woman, and almost arrived in front of her forehead in a blink.
BANG!
The next instant, the chaotic bullet entered the ugly woman's illusionary forehead and exploded while sending shockwaves in all directions.
Then, the chaotic fire soon enveloped her illusionary figure and tried to devour her and even the stone statue. But all of a sudden, Charles's [Forewarning] skill triggered and gave him a warning in the form of images.
Without any delay, he activated [Accelerate Thoughts] skill on himself and saw what was happening around him in slow motion.
At that moment, he noticed that some invisible forcefield appeared around the deformed woman's body and stopped the chaotic fire from devouring her.
Soon, the earlier exploded head started to restore at an unimaginable speed and soon returned to its former state!

'What is this thing?' Charles didn't dare to stay closer, hurriedly cast [False Blink] spell, disappeared from there, and soon reappeared 20 meters away from the deformed woman.
In the meantime, the woman made a twisted smile and then opened her arms wide while tossing the silver crown in his direction.
At the same time, her body also warped while creating multiple faces, arms, hands and inflated like a balloon. Before long, the deformed illusionary woman's skin peeled on its own, transformed into a creepy worm-like thing, and then reshaped into a two-headed serpent!
It had two python heads, a dragon's body, eerie illusionary black wings, a unique rainbow-colored crystalline horn on its forehead, and two claw-like legs. What's more shocking was that its scales appeared pure black color and glittered due to the presence of the remnant chaos fire. The creature hissed while releasing purplish bolts of lightning everywhere from its body and finally stopped growing once it reached 7 meters tall.
Even though it was just an illusionary manifestation of a remnant Will of a Nightmare creature, Charles felt that a terrifying feeling appeared in the deepest part of his heart.
His legs trembled uncontrollably due to the presence of this being and caused his heart to inner emotions to twist.
But he didn't get frozen in fear or shock, though. Instead, he made a forced smile and looked at the terrifying creature like a new prey.

"Haha, it's been a while since I felt this terrified." He spoke with a laugh.
But the next instant, he released his wisdom power, raised his hand, and asked mockingly.
"But do you think your mere remnant 'Will' could force me to submit? If you want to capture me, at least send your clone or something." He snorted coldly, pointed his finger at the creature, and cast [Finger of Destruction] spell continuously.
Chaotic flame bullets with chaotic power tore through the air and landed on the Nightmare Serpent-like creature. Explosions and shockwaves continued to erupt as Charles's magic spells and the Nightmare Creature's purple lightning clashed against one another and caused destruction everywhere. Alas, the battle became one-sided after Charles started throwing balls of purple flames. In truth, the remnant Will was nothing but a collection of a creature's memories. So, Charles's purple fire became its nemesis.
But what startled him was that the memories erased by his purple fire were disappeared without even sending any information to his Inner World!
'What?!' He was startled deeply by the strangeness and even attacked the creature using his [Black Inferno] spell.
Although the remnant Will tried its best, Charles casually evaded all of its attacks and cornered it.
After some time, he managed to break the Nightmare Serpent's scales using his Chaos Fire spell and soon broke the remnant Will into many pieces.
Once the remnant 'Will' disappeared from his sight, he breathed out a sigh of relief and turned his gaze towards the silver crown that was placed a few meters away from him.
He then walked towards the crown, probed it with his wisdom power, and conjured a ball of rebirth flame. After that, he used the rebirth flame to seal the silver crown and picked it up.
Following that, he walked towards the right side wall, sat on the cross-legged position, and tried to sense the strange connection link towards the physical world.
He disappeared from the Dream World and reappeared in the Throne Hall a moment later.
