A Wizard's Secret

Chapter 307: Changes in the Clan I

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the jade blue sky, flocks of white birds flew over from time to time, adding a touch of bright colors to the gorgeous sky.

On a small tree by the river bank, green sprouts started budding too, painting the white river bank with shades of green, giving it a spring-like appearance.

“Swoosh!”

The two figures landed on an empty vegetable garden. There were some tattered fences around the garden too where it seemed to have been abandoned for a long time.

“Wizard Merlin, is this Prakash City?”

The two figures that suddenly appeared were Merlin and Wizard Bammou. In comparison, Wizard Bamou’s flying speed was skillful and he appeared to be doing it so effortlessly. Meanwhile, Merlin’s situation was not as good since he was reliant on the green belt. This kind of Flying-type casting tool was consuming way too much Magic Power.

Therefore, along the way, Merlin took intermittent stops almost all the time, constantly relying on the elemental crystal stones to replenish Magic Power, in which Wizard Bammou watched in admiration. If he had so many elemental crystal stones, he need not seize every second to replenish his Magic Power.

Merlin glanced at that familiar wall in front and nodded with a complex expression on his face, “Yes, this is Prakash City. Let’s go in!”

Prakash City did not seem to have changed. It was no different from the last time when Merlin had departed, but there were obviously more people on the street, revealing a thriving scene.

Merlin was naturally very familiar with Prakash City, so it did not take long for him to find Wilson Castle. He saw that Wilson Castle had already expanded another circle outside, which looked majestic. The surrounding area was also filled with guards on duty, looking much more grandiose than when Merlin left back then.

However, in Merlin’s eyes, the entire Wilson Castle had transformed to a whole new look.

“Well? It seems that something has indeed happened to the castle. It’s even warded by Runic Magic Circles now!”

Merlin’s eyes glimmered a little. With his Mind Power, he sensed that the entire Wilson Castle was protected by a huge Runic Magic Circle.

Any ordinary Spell Caster would not have the ability to use such a large Runic Magic Circle, much less those roaming Wizards, who possibly could not even understand the wisdom of runology, let alone setting up Runic Magic Circles.

As for Emma and Laurinka, both of them were only Entrance-level Spell Casters. Even if they had devoted their heart to studying runes in the Dark Magic Region, it would also be impossible for them to set up such a huge Runic Magic Circle.

Moreover, Prakash City was only a small city, and there was no strategic location or resources, so it was a small inconspicuous place for the Black Moon Kingdom regardless. Although on the surface it belonged in the territory of the Dark Magic Region, but in actuality, Spell Casters of the Dark Magic Region would rarely appear in Prakash City.

Merlin could not wrap his mind around whoever else would spend so much effort, and specifically arranged such a large protective Runic Magic Circle for Wilson Castle.

“Wizard Merlin, this Runic Magic Circle serves an alerting function. As soon as we get close to it, the people inside would be notified. Do you want me to break it right away?”

Wizard Bammou, who was following behind Merlin, enquired softly. In front of outsiders, Merlin had also let Wizard Merlin call him “Wizard Merlin”, which could be considered leaving Wizard Bammou some decency.

However, Wizard Bammou still held the conscience a slave should have. For a Runic Magic Circle like this, the power within must be very much stronger. Though Wizard Bammou did not research much on runes, with his Seventh-level Spell Caster strength, even if he was to forcibly break it, it would still be more than enough.

Merlin paused, his eyes glimpsed the Runic Magic Circle. He said in a calm voice, “Break it? This Runic Magic Circle is obviously protecting Wilson Castle. Come on, let’s just go in and see who it is...”

Thereafter, Merlin and Wizard Bammou slowly walked into Wilson Castle together.

...

In the spacious yard, there were a few red recliners. Lying lazily on them were two elderly Spell Casters – one male and one female. However, the two Spell Casters had a peculiar look. Their faces were covered with strange tattoos, and they had huge earrings on their ears. The mere sight of them was rather eerie.

“Hehe, these kind of days are really pleasant.”

A somewhat frail old Wizard was swirling red wine in his thin hand, bathing in the warm sunshine on the large lounger, his expression appearing at ease.

“Heh heh, old ugly freak, I know it’s comfortable, but if we can’t complete the task given by His Royal Highness the eighth prince, we’ll be dead!”

The ugly female Wizard beside him, who looked like a witch, sneered and showed a mouthful of yellow teeth, which looked very ugly and disgusting.

“Old witch, even you dare to say that I’m ugly? Even if I’m ugly, I’m still better looking than you. Just look at you, which person in this castle is not afraid of that look?”

The “old ugly freak” seemed to be quite furious, and he even looked around. Upon seeing the two, the guards and attendants immediately ventured far away, obviously very fearful of them.

The ugly female Wizard was about to say something, but suddenly, a ripple had surprisingly appeared on the initially calm sky. The two elderly Wizards’ expressions changed slightly.

“Who entered the castle?”

“No matter who they are, capture them first and discuss later. Hey, old witch, this time you’re not allowed to act. Watch my move!”

The two Wizards looked at each other and showed a hint of excitement.

“Swish! Swish!”

Thus, the two stood up abruptly, and those thin, frail bodies disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye, just like spectres.

...

Merlin and Wizard Bammou sneakily circled around the guards and came to Wilson Castle. With their current strength, avoiding those ordinary guards was more than easy.

After all, Merlin could easily confuse countless normal people with any simple illusion. As long as the person did not have strong Mind Power, he or she would fall into an illusion.

“Wizard Merlin, someone’s coming. It seems like we’ve been discovered!”

Wizard Bammou’s Mind Power was focused on the situation inside the Runic Magic Circle all the time. From the moment they entered Wilson Castle, Wizard Bammou knew that they could not fool the Spell Caster who set up the Runic Magic Circle.

“Heh heh, don’t you guys know that this is Wilson Castle that’s personally protected by His Royal Highness the eighth prince? No matter who you are, since you’re here, then stay behind and be interrogated!”

Two hideous Spell Casters quickly flew out from Wilson Castle

“Rune, Glacial Suppression, go!”

Upon seeing Merlin and Wizard Bammou, one of the Spell Casters was extremely excited. He did not even say anything as he reached out to the sky and pointed. Suddenly, the tranquil sky turned completely dark. Mysterious runes descended from the sky, and turned into a huge ice sphere, about to envelope Merlin and Wizard Bammou.

Merlin’s eyes narrowed slightly, realizing that this was the power of the entire Runic Magic Circle, capable of both offense and defense. It was definitely not possibly set up by any ordinary person. In addition, the two Spell Casters seemed to have mentioned an “eighth prince”.

However, since the other party had already taken action, Merlin had no intention to explain either. He reached out his arm straight away, the fair-skinned palm grabbing the huge ice sphere in the sky.

“You’re just seeking death. This is the power of a Runic Magic Circle, comparable to the peak power of a Third-level spell!”

Seeing Merlin directly grabbing it with his hands, the two ugly Spell Casters displayed a sneer on their faces.

“Earth Veil!”

Soon, traces of khaki light veils appeared on Merlin’s hands, which had easily encased the ice sphere. Yet, the entire ice sphere was like a toy in the hands of Merlin, incapable of causing him any harm.

“Not bad, it’s even comparable to the power of a Third-level spell, and it doesn’t consume much energy. This is the greatness of Runic Magic Circles!”

Merlin felt it thoroughly. He naturally knew that the ice sphere was condensed from Runic Magic Circle. A profound comprehension of runology knowledge, strictly speaking, was of equal importance with the construction of spells. In ancient times, during the most glorious era of Spell Casters, runology had been developed to the peak. Even in the case of a weak Spell Caster, as long as he or she was proficient in runology, he would be able to possess great power.

It relied on what was the power of Runic Magic Circles!

However, regarding this kind of Runic Magic Circle which was capable of both attack and defense, besides in the Dark Magic Region and the Kurdmansla Islands back then, Merlin had never seen it anywhere else, so he was very curious about it.

“Fire!”

After feeling the power of the ice sphere, Merlin felt that there was nothing much to study about it. After all, it was categorized under runology. Merlin had no energy at all to study runology now, so he secretly initiated the Second-level Fire-type spell in his body, Sea of Purgatory Fire. It even brought along the power of Fiery Collapse, flashing directly on his hand, wrapping the entire huge ice sphere.

“Chi! Chi! Chi!”

The pale flame wrapped the ice sphere. Surprisingly, the ice sphere turned into water vapor in the blink of an eye, dissipating in the air, and the two ugly casters were stunned as they watched that.

“Old witch, seems like we’re dealing with strong enemies, now go!”

The two ugly Spell Casters watched on while Merlin broke their attacks so casually. Hence, their expressions became serious. Their hands swiftly tapped out mysterious rune one after another.

These runes were rapidly merged into the sky. Only by sensing using Mind Power would one be sure that these runes were the power that mobilized the Runic Magic Circle which shrouded the entire Wilson Castle.

“Runic Fire, suppress!”

The two Spell Casters seemed to be utilizing the power of the entire Runic Magic Circle. The aura fluctuation on their bodies was at most only the level of a Third-level Spell Caster, but now, with the runes they had created, the entire sky began to scorch. Glimmers of flame condensed powers which faintly resembled peak Fourth-level spells.

“Boom!”

Along with the muffled sound in the sky, a huge wheel of red flame fell out of thin air, fiercely hurling toward Merlin and Wizard Bammou.

Wizard Bammou was gripped with shock. Just as he was about to break the entire Runic Magic Circle, Merlin reached out his hand instead and blocked him.

“It’s only a Fourth-level spell. Earth Veil!”

Merlin did not show the slightest sign of retreat. Seeing the huge fireball in the sky, a smile etched on his face instead. Thus, he mustered all his energy and cast the Second-level Earth-type spell, Earth Veil.

This was a spell fused with Lava Soil. After cultivating the Pandora Demon Ability Fuse Earth, it was the first time that Merlin had ever fully unleashed Earth Veil. Merlin also wanted to see that after the Pandora Demon Ability, Fuse Earth was integrated into the Earth-type spell, what kind of heights could it reach?
