Episodes 40

To uncover the truth behind his family’s bloody massacre, Roland, the newly‑ascended Supreme Archmage, seals his magical powers and disguises himself as a penniless rural drifter with zero magic. By a twist of fate, he enters into a **contract marriage** with Elena, the neglected second young lady of a noble house, who is ostracized by her own clan. In Silverveil City, where status is entirely dictated by magical prowess, everyone dismisses him as a worthless magic‑less nobody to be trampled on at will. Vicious relatives scheme to seize the family fief. Arrogant noble brutes plot to kill him and take his wife. Even an Abyss Lord from the hells descends to claim his life! Pushed to the brink and driven to protect his wife, Roland drops his pretense. A single ordinary strike shatters a high‑rank forbidden spell. A snap of his fingers forces the Royal Mage Corps to their knees. The dreaded Abyss Blood King, who plunged the whole city into despair, is slain on the spot. *“Within my domain, even gods must obey my rules!”* Peek‑and‑crush trope at its finest. Overwhelming power crushes villains again and again. High‑fantasy power fantasy packed with thrills as an apex powerhouse fiercely defends his wife.
