A Wizard's Secret

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Elena breathed heavily in the thick fog. She and Merlin had been among the Wright clan from the start, hiding in a secret spot.

When Weiss arrived, they realized that although he was alone and a mere Third-level Spell Caster, Fourth-level Spell Casters were easily beaten by him.

Elena was shocked. She had finally realized the strength of Ozmu!

"Let's go, the Wright clan are already doomed. We have to deal with the issue between Wizard Riesen and me!"

Elena was still distracted when she heard this. She turned her head and stared at Merlin with astonishment.

"Wizard Merlin, although I don't know about the grudge between you and Riesen, with a maniac like Weiss, could it be…"

"It's already been accounted for!"

Before she could finish speaking, Merlin had interrupted her. He kept himself composed, stood up, and walked on.

"Dark Light Realm."

Immediately, a fog began to appear beside Merlin. It turned black as the light around distorted into complete darkness and the fog scattered rapidly into its surroundings.

…

"Ka-chak!"

The Fourth-level Defensive spell that Wizard Moyi cast was instantly destroyed by Weiss' Pandora Demon Ability. It was smashed into a million pieces and scattered all around.

Wizard Moyi's face began to flush and his body trembled as the fierce whirlwind finally engulfed him.

"Wizard Moyi!"

The survivors of the Wright clan watched as the figure of Wizard Moyi vanished into the horrifying whirlwind. Their faces filled with sorrow.

"Die, Moyi, die! The Wright clan is completely doomed!"

The Spell Casters who watched the battle between the Wright clan and Weiss were stunned. It would be useless for them to fight against the powerful Ozmu.

"Let's go. The Wright clan are already doomed. It's best to not interfere and be remembered by the maniac Weiss. We should leave instead."

The other Spell Casters watched Wizard Moyi die and prepared to flee the scene. Who knew what the maniac Weiss would do next? He already dared to fight against Wizard Busson of Sterling House, what would he do to the other Spell Casters?

"Riesen, go in and get Shane! Hehe, he already knows the ritual and today I could lend him a hand. He won't have to make a trip in vain for I'll simply destroy the Wright clan now!"

Wizard Weiss laughed coldly as he turned his head to look at Riesen. His eyes were filled with madness and Riesen could not help but shudder. He knew that the official members of Ozmu were powerful, and if he really cultivated Fiery Collapse, it was still difficult to tell whether it could beat Weiss.

Riesen was already frightened by Weiss, and he heard his demands, so Riesen immediately walked forward.

"Whoosh…"

At that moment, the once white fog now had a trace of darkness in it. The darkness spread rapidly and in the blink of an eye, it became a black veil.

"What's happening?"

The Spell Casters who were just about to leave saw the strange darkness. Wherever they went, the light would distort and turn into darkness.

"The Darkness-type First-level spell, Dark Light Realm? Is it someone from Abyss Fort?"

Wizard Weiss squinted slightly. He was a Spell Caster from Ozmu and instantly recognized that as the light turned into darkness, it might be the Darkness-type First-level spell, Dark Light Realm.

Abyss Fort is the only one to truly master Darkness-type spells!

Everyone felt the eeriness of the darkness and wanted to escape it. However, it spread too quickly. In the blink of an eye, everyone was enveloped within it.

The many powerful Spell Casters were enveloped in the darkness and they were afraid for they did not wish to be trapped in an unceasing illusion.

Nearly all the Spell Casters had fallen into an illusion. They treaded along like zombies and looked dull. They might as well have been killed as they might never be able to free themselves from the illusion.

"Boom!"

However, among the crowd were several dramatic fluctuations of Mind Power. These fluctuations could have been from Mind Powers of the Fourth-level or higher.

Merlin did a mental calculation and realized it could have been from Spell Casters with Fourth or Fifth-level Mind Power. He had cast a common Dark Light Realm and did not enhance it. However, it was increased by his Darkness Heart and therefore Third-level Spell Casters would fall into the illusion.

The Fourth-level Spell Casters would indeed have Fourth-level Mind Power and so they did not fall into the illusion as easily.

"Who is it? Which Wizard is it from Abyss Fort?"

In the darkness, an enormous amount of Mind Power gathered around a figure.

"Merlin of the Dark Magic Region!"

The figure in the darkness was conspicuous as only a few people in the darkness were still conscious.

"Turns out it's a Spell Caster from the Dark Magic Region. Merlin? How have I never heard this name?"

"This is the First-level spell, Dark Light Realm. Such incredible power and unbelievable strength - the Spell Caster must be very skilled in Darkness-type spells. It could only be Wizard Leo!"

"Hehe, you're all wrong. There's a Spell Caster in the Dark Magic Region who is even more gifted than Wizard Kleis. Wizard Merlin, the Six-Elemental Spell Caster, I never would have thought that you would come to Floating City!"

Finally, a Fourth-level Spell Caster recognized Merlin. These Fourth-level Spell Casters were few of the most powerful Wizards in the Spell Caster clans in Floating City. They had all been hiding among the crowd, and if Merlin had not cast Dark Light Realm, they would not have been discovered.

"The Dark Magic Region! It's always the Dark Magic Region! Go to hell. Kleis was from the Dark Magic Region and anyone who comes from there should die!"

Suddenly, another Spell Caster who was not affected by Dark Light Realm growled deeply and it turned out to be Wizard Weiss. Although he was a Third-level Spell Caster, his Mind Power had reached the Fourth-level and so he was not affected by Dark Light Realm.

Wizard Weiss growled and with his incredible Mind Power, he destroyed Merlin's Dark Light Realm.

Immediately, a glimmer of light appeared and spread out rapidly, finally dispelling the darkness. Merlin's Dark Light Realm had been completely destroyed by Weiss.

"What happened?"

"It was like I was enveloped in the black veil. "

"Hey, who's that? Why is Weiss glaring at him? Is it a Spell Caster from the Wright clan?"

…

The Third-level Spell Casters who were shrouded by Dark Light Realm did not have a clue as to what had happened as they entered the illusions.

Therefore, as they saw the "stranger" Merlin and the maniac Weiss go head to head, they were immediately shocked.

However, among the crowd was one who saw Merlin and looked very uneasy.

"Merlin, how did you survive and escape the ancient monument?"

Wizard Riesen's face expressed a disbelieving look. He even saw it with his own eyes. He had trapped Merlin in the ancient monument and the stone doors were already very difficult for a Fourth-level Spell Caster to break down. Even with Merlin's Pandora Demon Ability, it would have been impossible for him to leave the ancient monument.

However, it was clear that Merlin had, in fact, lived to escape the ancient monument. His gaze met Merlin's cold stare and Riesen could not help but shudder slightly as he felt powerless.

The Darkness-type spell which was cast earlier could have been cast by Merlin. His spells had become very powerful, not to mention Merlin possessed Pandora Demon Ability. Riesen knew he did not want to be an enemy to Merlin.

"Riesen, you must pay for your actions!"

Merlin did look at anyone else as he just glared at Riesen.

"Sir Wizard Weiss!"

Riesen retreated a couple of steps and hid silently behind Weiss.

Merlin furrowed his eyebrows. Weiss was a very troublesome character, just as all the people of Ozmu were.

"I only want to kill Riesen. I don't care for Ozmu or the likes of the Wright clan!"

Merlin continued to advance toward Riesen.

"Ice Seal!"

A cold breeze advanced toward Merlin and the ground began to freeze rapidly with ice crystals as it tried to restrict Merlin.

This was a Third-level Ice-type spell and Weiss had acted impulsively.

"Guardian Monument!"

Merlin immediately cast Guardian Monument a couple of times. He used the Enhancing casting tool to strengthen his Guardian Monument. Its strength was easily comparable to that of a Third-level Defensive Spell.

Therefore, Weiss' Third-level spell was easily stopped and could not get to Merlin.

"I hate Spell Casters from the Dark Magic Region! You and Kleis are both the same. You both come from the Dark Magic Region!"

Wizard Weiss lifted his finger and the fierce whirlwind took form again. It howled as it advanced toward Merlin. The sound was terrifying - it was no different from when it killed the Fourth-level Spell Casters before.

"I'm not interested to indulge in an entanglement with a madman. Pandora Demon Ability, Fiery Collapse!"

Fierce Fire Element began to fluctuate around Merlin's body. Traces of white flames appeared out of thin air and quickly expanded to form a strange white sea of fire.

"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"

The white sea of fire was like a veil of light. It violently blocked the whirlwind and entangled with it. The two Pandora Demon Abilities looked like an ancient godly giant as they entangled within one another with unceasing Wind and Fire Elements. The two created a spectacular scene as they collided fiercely in mid-air!
