Throne of Magical Arcana

Above the green trees, a cluster of dark green clouds arrived, within it there were flashing electric arcs, showing the fury of nature.

Then the cloud shrank into a young Wood Elf. His neck and hands were covered with mysterious patterns, just like those shamans who were in charge of the sacrifice rites.

“Martha, repeat your words. You said you were framed by them? They said you had summoned the devil?” Ferragond asked Martha, and he had completely ignored the sorcerers.

As he was asking, the right hand on Martha’s face and the creepy veins had all withered like fallen leaves in autumn to the ground and turned into mud.

Martha said in great grievance, “They see Dance of Revenge as a summoning rite! That’s ridiculous!”

Obviously, Ferragond knew Dance of Revenge. His eyes lit up with lightning, and the air of his power was integrating into the surroundings. Then, under his gaze, the sorcerers felt that the trees were shaking, air compacting, and dark cloud gathering, as if the entire world was being resentful toward them!

Even the little crystal dragon, Alferris, had felt the pressure. Annick’s hand had been cut off in the middle of the gestures; Heidi could not help taking a step back and her back against the wall of the tree house; Jurisian had sweat on his forehead, and although he tried to smile and say something, he could not.

A new right hand had grown out of Felipe’s snapped wrist, and it was covered with a layer of moisture as if it was just born from a mother’s womb. In the strong wind, Felipe’s hair streamed and his body was very tense. However, he would not lower his head. Instead, Felipe said with great effort, “There’s… a book.”

Iristine was not influenced by the great pressure, so she hurriedly added, “The congress’s shown us a book called Viken’s Special Summoning Ritual. It’s about using simple and absurd rites for summoning those primeval devils. The book was written by Viken, ‘King of Calamities’, a legendary sorcerer in the past and today’s pope!”

Although Stroop forest was located on the west coast of the Boundless Ocean and was away from Viken, to Ferragond, a legendary Druid, this distance was nothing to him. Viken wasn’t a strange name to Ferragond, and since the congress had been informed that Viken was the pope, he had been putting even more attention to him.

Ferragond’s eyes slightly squinted. As he lifted his hand, the book held by the elf automatically flew toward him.

The biggest enemy for Nature’s Abhorrence was those human beings who destroyed nature, and the followers of the South Church were also human beings. Therefore, Nature’s Abhorrence also regarded the Church as an enemy. Since the South Church had been trying to steal Nature’s Heart and have the elves bend down in front of the glory of the God of Truth, for Nature’s Abhorrence, the South Church was even more hateful than the congress.

Martha said at the top of her lungs, “Your Excellency, don’t listen to them! We don’t know if this was written by Viken! We don’t know if Viken is the pope!”

Ferragond leafed through it and his brows frowned, “It indeed looks ridiculous, but it’s ridiculous in the way that appears creepy and mysterious. I’ve read Pain Fable. In the fables, all the stories aim at twisting the good emotions and feelings to make one’s heart full of pain and hatred.”

Elves could live very long, and therefore, many of them had read lots of books. However, as Viken’s Special Summoning Ritual was so childishly absurd, they had never paid much attention to it.

Seeing Ferragond’s attitude, Iristine gave him the notes, “Your Excellency, please take a look at it.”

“Mr. Ferragond, they’re lying! They’re lying!” Martha kept repeating herself, her lips trembling.

“They do resemble a bit, but this cannot be the solid proof that Martha was the one who summoned the devil. A further investigation must be conducted.” said Ferragond after reading the notes, who was still on Martha’s side.

“Yes, sir. We’re just being suspicious, and we hope that Ms. Martha can show us her willingness to cooperate.” Iristine released a sigh of relief.

Martha shook her head, “Mr. Ferragond! They’re faking it! They’re sent by Nature’s Balance!”

The look on Ferragond’s face changed. Weighing the situation, he finally said, “Iristine, I don’t trust humans. I’m going to question Martha myself.”

A smile appeared on Martha’s face.

The sorcerers did not think it was fair. No one knew if Ferragond was totally on Martha’s side.

Iristine felt that she could not take it anymore. She did not trust Ferragond, while Ferragond did not trust humans and Nature’s Balance. It would keep going like this and nothing convincing enough could be found.

“I’ll take Martha to the elven tree.” said Ferragond who had made his own decision. Iristine wanted to stop him, but had no idea what to say.

“Wait a second.”

At this time, Lankshear and Atlant had arrived! It was just in time!

Holding a simple wood bow in his hand, Lankshear landed between Ferragond and Martha.

“Ferragond, you’re the leader of Nature’s Abhorrence. You shouldn’t be interrogating Martha. I highly doubt it if you could find anything.”

Heidi and Annick were greatly relieved when they saw Atlant had come back. Facing a legendary on their own was so stressful and scary for them, as they felt that they could be devoured by nature at any time if they were not careful enough.Visit web novel. live If You like manga , comics

Alferris finally had the chance to take out a light green fruit and fed it into its mouth. The little dragon needed some sweetness to comfort its nerves.

Ferragond stared at Lankshear, “You’re suspecting me?”

“It’s not about suspecting but avoiding suspicion. Don’t tell me you don’t get this, Ferragond.” Lankshear talked back to Ferragond sharply.

They never got along with each other.

Ferragond remained silent for a while and finally said, “Then let Her Royal Highness do this herself. I don’t trust you.”

Lankshear nodded, “I’ll take her to the elven tree.”

He did not mention anything about Town of the Anonymous.

Ferragond did not say anything but sneered. He had accepted the decision, but obviously he was not happy.

Lankshear turned to Martha, “You’ll be treated fairly.”

Hearing that, Martha suddenly burst out with crazy laughter. Devil patterns quickly covered her dark-green skin. Meanwhile, her eyes became red and creepy, and scales started growing out under her eyes.

Martha had been corrupted! The elves were all shocked.

“Is she possessed by the devil of abhorrence?” Felipe said in a low voice.

“Sir Ferragond, run!” Martha burst out with a bitter scream, “They know the secret of Dance of Revenge!”

Then her body exploded.

At this time, thick, dark green vines rose straight from the ground within a second and trapped the flesh and blood inside the cage formed by them.

When the vines split, Lankshear had put an arrow on his bow at Ferragond.

“It is you.” said Lankshear word by word.

“Me?!” Ferragond was shocked, and when he realized what was going on, now his guts were burning with fury, “How dare you, Lankshear!”

Behind Lankshear’s back, there was an illusionary picture of forest, and then the forest formed into a green ray of light which was the power of his arrow, “Martha’s words have revealed it! Also, it was you who ordered to close the town. In the town, those possessed elves were also from Nature’s Abhorrence! We’re here just because of this!”

“Those human sorcerers have given us enough proof. What else can you say, Ferragond?” Lankshear scolded him, “Why did you do this?”

The elves could not believe what was going on.

Hearing the words, Ferragond took a bitter and hostile glance at the sorcerers and his fury burst out, “It’s you bloody human beings! I’m seeing Her Royal…”

However, before the words finished, dark-green scales started growing out of Ferragond’s skin, as if the hatred was taking its physical form.

“No!” Ferragond burst out bitterly.

Iristine and the rest of the elves were totally shocked. Seeing it with their own eyes, they were still having a hard time accepting the fact that it was Ferragond who did all these.

Lankshear said coldly, “Ferragond, be ready for the sentence!”

And then the green light shot out.

The great power of the cycle of nature consisted of incubating, nurturing, spreading, thriving, decaying, burying and again incubating was contained in this one single shoot. The gloss of the trees and plants nearby had all gone within the second.

At this moment, Ferragond had been abandoned by nature!

Totally unprepared, Ferragond was not able to do anything. The arrow directly went through his chest and green tree branches were now growing out of the hole in his flesh.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!”

Ferragond’s bitter crying was full of hatred. His body started becoming transparent and it bulged fast. The tree branches went crazy by the polluted flesh and blood and were now turning to attack the elves and the sorcerers.

The forest had suddenly turned into the forest of flesh and blood!

Under the protection of Atlant’s legendary-level shield, the sorcerers and elves remained safe. However, when the blood and flesh were all gone, Ferragond and Lankshear had also disappeared.

“Sir Lankshear can for sure catch Ferragond…” Iristine tried to comfort the rest of the elves, although she was in bad spirit, “He’s Vengeful Hunter. He’s good at tracking…”

……

Badly injured, Ferragond had run into this forest close to the abyssal gap. In a secret cave, he was trying to cure himself and get rid of the devil projection within his body.

“Why is it…” he couldn’t help murmuring. He did not understand the situation.

“Why? Why!” He roared.

Under the influence of the devil power, he could not control his feelings.

“Because you learned Dance of Revenge. Because your heart’s full of hatred.” the cold voice arrived.

“Lankshear!” Ferragond was about to stand up and fight, but found that he had no spare power to use since he was resisting the devil projection. To gain the power again, he had to give up his mind and let the devil take control.

Leaning against the rock, Ferragond saw Lankshear walking in step by step. Lankshear’s long, golden hair shone in the sunlight.

“Why?” Ferragond kept asking in great frustration.

Lankshear smiled and checked the position of the sun in the sky, “It still needs a bit longer. When that plan works, it’ll be a success.”

“That?” Ferragond was confused. Meanwhile, he kept working on getting rid of the projection. For a legendary, a devil projection could not make him or her yield immediately until they decided to give up their mind.

……

“When the plan works, everything will be going perfectly.” grinned the human-faced goat.

At this time, he saw Malfurion and another two legendaries coming.

The dog head roared in low volume, “I wish I could eat them up. But we have to pretend and run…”

“Get ready!” said the human-faced goat.

Facing a fight, the human-faced goat would never argue with the dog head, which would prevent them from exerting all their power.

At this time, he saw that there was a silver pocket watch in the young man’s hand who was wearing the black double-breasted suit. Somehow, although the young man was still far away from them, they could already hear the pocket watch ticking.

“What is it?” The human-faced goat was very concerned.

“Whatever it is!” The dog head started roaring and the entire Scarlet Plain started boiling. Blood gushed out from the soil. The filthy raindrops hit the ground mixing with dark red dust. Their body bulged quickly and grew as tall as the red sun in the sky!

But then, they heard the clear “click”.
