Chapter 235: Resolution 5

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the Delman clan, Spell Casters were bustling about in a frenzy, constantly coming in and going out. Fortunately, the Delman clan’s territory was large enough with many spaces set aside so that the Spell Casters who were recalled had a place to stay.

On usual days, the Delman clan did not appear to have many members, but after Wizard Matthew sent out the order to recall all members, this crowd of people appeared all at once.

“Merlin, wait for a moment in this room. I’ll go and find out what actually happened.”

Elena frowned in a vexed manner. One could see that she was feeling rather anxious as she did not know what had happened in her clan.

Merlin nodded and replied, “Wizard Elena, as you wish.”

Following that, Elena left the room to find out what had happened in her clan, whereas Merlin quietly observed his Mind Power, which was currently at the level of a Third-level Spell Caster.

Moreover, the six Spell Models in his Awareness, under the control of his tremendous Mind Power, had not made any error. At every moment, various Elements in the air were absorbed and transformed into Magic Power to be stored inside the Spell Models.

Even during such an idle period, Merlin did not break off his cultivation but instead began meditating. Although this was a busy time, he would cultivate the advanced Mind Meditation Spell at every opportunity he had. By doing this, he would increase his incredible Mind Power as always, but compared to the amount of Mind Power Merlin needed, such a small increase seemed to be negligible.

However, the advanced Mind Meditation Spell still served its purpose for Merlin. Perhaps once his Mind Power broke through the barrier of the Third-level and reached the stage of the Fourth-level, the advanced Mind Meditation Spell would no longer be of much use to Merlin.

“Merlin, I have news about Riesen!”

Just as Merlin was cultivating the advanced Mind Meditation Spell, Elena suddenly barged into the room with a gleeful expression.

“Hmm? You’ve found Riesen?”

Merlin opened his eyes and the force surrounding his body, which had been calm, became sinister and terrifying in a flash, causing Elena’s delighted smile to freeze on her face.

This was because Merlin had cultivated Darkness Heart, and the force he involuntarily emitted was filled with a strong, imposing Darkness. Merlin quickly became aware of this and immediately retracted the force around his body. With that, Elena recovered and said in a low voice, “At first, I went to inquire why the clan had recalled all its members, and unexpectedly, I also learned of some information about Riesen.

“It turned out that Riesen was still hiding in Floating City. He’s an associate member of Ozmu, and he sure knows how to hide well! However, his true identity was no big secret to the Delman clan and a few other Spell Caster clans.”

Merlin’s eyes sharpened, and he asked hoarsely, “So where’s Riesen now?”

Elena could clearly sense Merlin’s murderous intent toward Wizard Riesen, but she still softly advised him, “Wizard Merlin, it might be troublesome if you’re planning to kill Riesen. He’s currently by the side of Wizard Weiss, a gifted, Third-level Spell Caster from Ozmu.”

“Weiss?”

Merlin narrowed his eyes, his face full of inquiry.

“Wizard Weiss is a Third-level Spell Caster from Ozmu who came from a medium-sized spell casters’ organization in Thule. He defected to Ozmu, and his powers must’ve increased many times throughout his days of training in Ozmu. Now, he’s acting under Ozmu’s orders, and has come to Floating City for the Wright clan’s Wizard Shane.”

Merlin grasped the situation immediately. Wizard Shane had displayed an incredible talent, and Ozmu’s modus operandi had always been to target gifted Spell Casters like him. Ozmu had always dared to steal the talents of large spell casters’ organizations. Hence, it was of no surprise that they came for the Wright clan.

However, Merlin was not concerned about Ozmu. Whoever they were planning to steal was none of Merlin’s business. He cared only about Riesen.

“Where’s Weiss and Riesen then?”

Merlin asked with a deep searching look.

Elena hesitated for a moment but finally answered, “Weiss will head straight to the Wright clan tomorrow. Being Ozmu’s associate member, Riesen will be sure to follow.”

“The Wright clan!”

Merlin lowered his head and mumbled to himself, before drawing in a deep breath. “Fine, tomorrow we’ll go to the Wright clan earlier and wait for Riesen to arrive!”

Elena opened her mouth and it seemed like she was about to say something. In the end, she said nothing, and quietly left the room.

...

At dawn the next morning, before the fog in Floating City had even dispersed, the Wright clan came alive with noise and movement. Spell Casters constantly gathered in a group and fixed their gazes on the doorway.

The strongest of the Wright clan, the Fourth-level Spell Caster Wizard Moyi, was staring sternly at the doorway shrouded in thick fog. Beside Wizard Moyi, there were many other Spell Casters – these were the Third-level Spell Casters of the Wright clan.

With the strongest gathered here since early morning, looking embattled, it seemed that they had heard the news about Weiss, and dared not let down their guard at all.

“Whoosh...”

Suddenly, two blurry silhouettes slowly appeared in the fog. A gentle gust of wind broke up the fog, and a Spell Caster was yelling, “It’s Weiss, they were right. Ozmu had really sent Weiss!”

The fog dispersed, and Weiss led Riesen to the doorway of the Wright clan. Seeing that the entrance was crammed full of Spell Casters, Wizard Weiss showed no sign of fear, but instead called out loudly, “Moyi, release Shane right this instance. He’s already a half-member of Ozmu. So, if you don’t release him, I’m afraid that the Wright clan will vanish completely today...”

“Wizard Weiss, are you that confident?”

Wizard Moyi, who was sitting on a chair, got up leisurely. Although his face was aged, his eyes burned with a bright spirit.

“Kill!”

Wizard Moyi’s faced changed suddenly and he roared hoarsely. Instantly, the crowd of Spell Casters hiding in the mist cast their respective spells with a cry. The wild torrent of spells flew toward Wizard Weiss in a flash.

As Wizard Riesen looked at the sky of spells, his face dropped immediately, and stepped back instinctively. Perhaps on their own, the spells were nothing much, but altogether they formed a terrifying attack. Not even a Fourth-level Spell Caster could be sure of withstanding this.

However, Wizard Weiss’ expression did not shift. He looked up at the barrage of spells filling his vision, and a disdainful, mocking smirk tugged at his lips.

“Gale, rise!”

Wizard Weiss muttered softly, and suddenly a wild wind twisted itself into a giant vortex that began to sweep out horizontally.

The tremendous power of Gale completely swept away the barrage of spells, crushing them into dust.

Even Wizard Moyi was dumbfounded. His eyes burst wide open as he stared at Gale, stunned to his core. He knew that this was not the power of a Third-level spell or any spell for that matter.

“Pandora Demon Ability!”

Wizard Moyi mumbled in a low voice.

“So, it’s a Pandora Demon Ability. It’s been said that Wizard Weiss had betrayed his organization and defected to Ozmu because the latter had offered a Pandora Demon Ability that very much suited him. Could it have been this Wind-type Pandora Demon Ability?”

A few powerful Spell Casters were still hiding under the dense cover of the fog. Their Mind Power was able to easily discern everything that had happened in the fog.

These Spell Casters were Third-level Spell Casters at the very least, and were evidently Wizards from the Spell Caster clans of Floating City. They had come across descriptions of Pandora Demon Ability before, and the spell that Weiss had just unleashed was different from Wind-type spells, for it had unbelievable power. It was far beyond the limit of Third-level spells to be able to smash the barrage of spells that had covered the sky into smithereens.

Only Pandora Demon Ability could accomplish this. It was not surprising that Wizard Weiss was so confident, completely unafraid of the entire Wright clan. It was true that once his Wind-type Pandora Demon Ability was cast, the number of opponent Spell Casters was irrelevant in the face of its marvelous power.

“It seems like Wizard Moyi is in danger this time around, and the Wright clan would find it hard to escape. Ozmu’s might is indeed terrifying and great. Even a Third-level Spell Caster whom they’ve sent out has mastered the powerful and mysterious Pandora Demon Ability!”

After witnessing Wizard Weiss casting his Pandora Demon Ability, the Third-level Spell Casters of the different clans felt a lingering fear in their hearts. If they had really decided to assist the Wright clan, their clans would have been caught up in this dangerous situation too.

Even the Fourth-level Spell Casters, especially the ones like them who came from Spell Caster clans, would not be sure of a victory over Weiss, who possessed Pandora Demon Ability.

Weiss’ possession of Pandora Demon Ability was the greatest shock, not to others, but to Riesen who was behind him.

Riesen had suffered and toiled to finally obtain one Pandora Demon Ability, and he was not even able to cultivate it for now. Conversely, when Weiss had defected to Ozmu, his prerequisite was that he would acquire Pandora Demon Ability.

Now that Weiss had already cultivated Pandora Demon Ability successfully, his strength was far greater than the average Fourth-level Spell Caster. This was the true basis for his confidence. Weiss truly had the right to look down upon the Wright clan.

“Die, you old thing!”

A wild expression shone in Wizard Weiss’ eyes, and violent fluctuations of Wind Elements rose around him. Suddenly, a raging gust of tornado emerged. Its power was even stronger than the one before, making the heart of Wizard Moyi, a Fourth-level Spell Caster, race furiously.

Wizard Moyi understood that he was unable to withstand Weiss’ Pandora Demon Ability. It was not really an exaggeration to say that the prodigies of Ozmu were able to transcend their ranks and vanquish powerful Spell Casters. Wizard Moyi was currently about to become one such stepping stone for Weiss.

Furthermore, this battle would be a time for Weiss to truly shine!

“Kleis, I’ll show the higher-ups of Ozmu that it was a foolish decision to choose you!”

Wizard Weiss’ face twisted slightly and turned sinister. It appeared that he was only determined to make such a big show of destroying the Wright clan because he was dissatisfied with the higher-ups of Ozmu.

Moreover, the so-called “gifted Spell Caster Shane” was no longer a significant factor in Wizard Weiss’ mind.
