Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At first light the next day, rlin went to the highest floor of the tower and quietly waited outside Wizard Leo’s door.
“Creak.”
Very soon, Wizard Leo pushed open the large door and walked out. Seeing that rlin was already waiting for him, he smiled and nodded with a serene expression. “Let’s go, I’ll bring you to a place today.”
rlin nodded and did not ask any questions. He followed behind Wizard Leo.
Wizard Leo brought rlin out of the tower and ca to a place with Runic Magic Circles packed densely together. rlin knew that this was the Runic Magic Circle for leaving the Dark Magic Region. It seed that Wizard Leo was bringing him outside.
“Buzz.”
Wizard Leo’s trendous Mind Power activated one of the Runic Magic Circles. The figures of rlin and Wizard Leo were enveloped in the dense lines of runes and they disappeared in a flash.
...
In a peaceful valley, two figures appeared in mid-air, their bodies circled by mysterious runes that had not dissipated.
rlin, dressed in a long, black Wizard robe, surveyed the valley curiously. In the Runic Magic Circle earlier, he had experienced a pressure that was greater than the previous ti. This ant that the distance that they had traveled through the Runic Magic Circle was extrely far.
“Co on, we need to hurry!”
Wizard Leo said with a straight face. With a wave of his hand, a fierce burst of Wind Elent surrounded his body, after which it quickly wrapped around rlin as well. Thereafter, both rose up in the air and began to fly into the distance.
Only spells that were above Fourth-level could enable flight. Moreover, it was even more difficult to be able to pull it off like Wizard Leo, who had easily supported another person’s flight. This demonstrated the enormous amount of Magic Power in Wizard Leo’s body.
They were flying at a high speed. rlin glanced down and took in view of countless rivers, mountains, and jungles, which evoked a peculiar sensation in him. Perhaps a Spell Caster could only be considered a truly powerful Wizard if they were able to soar so freely.
rlin had already beco a First-level Spell Caster but this was only the beginning. He would be able to defeat so Third-level Spell Casters by relying on Pandora Demon Ability, but he was still weak and puny compared to a Fourth-level Spell Caster.
At the very least, a Fourth-level Spell Caster with a Flying spell would render rlin completely helpless! This huge disparity could not be bridged by any spells or Pandora Demon Ability!
As countless thoughts flashed across rlin’s mind, Wizard Leo was already leading rlin into a slow descend, and they finally landed in a valley that was surrounded by mountains.
This stretch of the valley was covered in dense jungles. There was also a winding brook which was flowing quietly. However, the strange thing was there were no signs of any wild beasts.
rlin looked toward Wizard Leo in puzzlent. What did Wizard Leo bring him here for?
Wizard Leo asked suddenly, “rlin, didn’t you notice anything?”
rlin furrowed his brow. Upon listening to what Wizard Leo said, he quickly extended his Mind Power to his surroundings but was unable to sense anything amiss.
Thus, rlin shook his head slightly. “Wizard Leo, I didn’t discover anything wrong with this place.”
A smile tugged at the corner of Wizard Leo’s lips, and he said in a sowhat rueful voice, “To be able to portray such a life-like illusion – even without ticulous runic techniques – it’s possible to accomplish through spells!”
With that, Wizard Leo waved his hand abruptly, and his trendous Mind Power beca like a wild gale that tore through the vast valley.
It was hard to imagine the imnsity of Wizard Leo’s Mind Power. Although Mind Power was sothing intangible and phantasmal, rlin was scared out of his wits under this powerful surge of Mind Power which was unable to even muster up a shred of resistance.
This was the embodint of Mind Power that had reached its pinnacle. Wizard Leo’s Mind Power had far surpassed the limits of what Sixth-level Spell Casters could contain, where it approached the standard of Seventh-level, or even higher.
However, the thing that really stunned rlin was after Wizard Leo’s Mind Power swept over everything, the entire valley seed to be wiped away bit by bit and then vanished without a trace. Before rlin was a massive, barren hillside that was even larger than the valley earlier.
Below the hillside stood a gigantic stone tablet with two large words inscribed in Molta language –”Abyss Fort”.
“Abyss Fort? This place is Abyss Fort?”
rlin was astonished. He did not expect the previous scenery of green hills and clear rivers to turn into Abyss Fort which looked rather gloomy, frightening, and desolate.
“Which Wizard is it who has graced us with their presence?”
Very soon, a few Spell Casters quickly ca out from a huge hole behind the stone tablet. They did not possess a powerful force, so they could have been First- and Second-level Spell Casters.
These Spell Casters were just like the ones in the Dark Magic Region who were guarding the entry passage in order to earn a few contribution points. They had just felt an alarming surge of Mind Power, which had forcibly dispelled the mighty Illusion spell maintained by Abyss Fort, so they ca out in bewildernt to greet whoever it was.
Only a Spell Caster with terrifying power would be able to forcibly dispel the Illusion spell of Abyss Fort with their Mind Power. Thus, although these Spell Casters were at the doorway of Abyss Fort, they did not feel particularly bold.
The blood-red third eye on Wizard Leo’s forehead opened slowly, shining with beams of crimson light. Wizard Leo said in a level tone, “Report to Wizard Hobbes that Leo from the Dark Magic Region is here to pay a visit!”
“Wizard Leo? You’re Wizard Leo from the Dark Magic Region who had cultivated Darkness Eye and hunted the Seventh-level Spell Caster Osseus from Ozmu?”
Upon hearing Wizard Leo’s na, the Spell Casters from Abyss Fort turned pale with shock.
Wizard Leo’s beheading of a Seventh-level Spell Caster from Ozmu had astonished many spell casters’ organizations. However, the ones which were most taken aback were from Abyss Fort as their expertise was Darkness-type spells. Even though they possessed the cultivation thod of Wizard Leo’s Darkness Eye, none of them was able to cultivate it successfully.
Wizard Leo had relied on Darkness Eye to bypass his own level and behead a Seventh-level Spell Caster from Ozmu. This, to Abyss Fort, was a montous breakthrough, allowing them to truly comprehend how powerful Darkness Eye was.
“Wizard Leo, please wait for a mont. We’ll report imdiately to Wizard Hobbes!”
These First- and Second-level Spell Casters did not dare to dawdle after seeing that it was Wizard Leo and instantly disappeared into the large hole as they reported the visit to the higher levels of Abyss Fort.
rlin eyed the gigantic stone tablet and nodded his head thoughtfully. He would have expected this since Wizard Leo had said that he wanted to help him obtain a Darkness-type Spell that was above Second-level and even a Darkness-type Pandora Demon Ability.
Where else could rlin’s need be fulfilled other than Abyss Fort, the experts of Darkness-type spells? Even Sterling House, which was overseen by the Great Wizard Sterling, could not possibly have the complete collection of various Darkness-type spells and Darkness-type Pandora Demon Abilities.
“rlin, although the Darkness-type spell I’m constructing within my body is suitable for you, I can’t pass it to you because this spell was obtained from Abyss Fort. What’s more, I’ve signed a contract with Abyss Fort that I’m not allowed to pass on Darkness-type spells to others. Therefore, if you want a Darkness-type spell above Second-level, you can only get it from Abyss Fort.”
Wizard Leo explained the simple reason he could not pass the Darkness-type spell to rlin. It turned out that Wizard Leo’s spell was also acquired from Abyss Fort, and that he had signed a contract with them.
Even so, Wizard Leo could have paid a rather hefty price to acquire Darkness-type spells from Abyss Fort. This ti around, in order to let rlin pick up a Darkness-type spell that was above Second-level as well as a Pandora Demon Ability, Wizard Leo could have to pay an even greater price.
Moreover, rlin could vaguely guess what Wizard Leo had used to exchange for the spells in Abyss Fort, and he could not help wear a complicated expression.
Before long, a Wizard with a wizened fra and an aged face walked out of the hole.
“Wizard Leo! It’s really you who ca!”
The old Wizard’s voice was low and raspy, and he spoke in a calm tone.
“Wizard Hobbes, it’s been decades since I’ve seen you, but you still look the sa!”
The blood-red third eye in Wizard Leo’s forehead widened slightly and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
“Is he your student?”
Wizard Hobbes was reserved and unsmiling, revealing a perpetually stiff expression. His gaze landed briefly on rlin before fixing onto Wizard Leo as he questioned.
“rlin, co quickly and et Wizard Hobbes. He’s a Seventh-level Spell Caster from the Dark Magic Region! 1 ”
It turned out that Wizard Hobbes was, in fact, a Seventh-level Spell Caster. rlin hurriedly ca forward and bowed respectfully, before standing on the side.
Wizard Hobbes gave rlin a deep look, and a stiff semblance of a smile appeared on his face. With his throaty voice, he said, “Wizard Leo, the last ti you ca to Abyss Fort was to construct your Darkness-type spell. It’s been sixty years, and now you’re here again for this young fellow?”
Wizard Hobbes had a shrewd, piercing gaze, and was able to make out Wizard Leo’s intentions in one glance.
However, Wizard Leo did not reply imdiately but instead looked around. “Wizard Hobbes, is Abyss Fort going to let stand outside here to discuss the matters of ‘Darkness Eye’ with you?”
“Darkness Eye?”
Wizard Hobbes’ eyes focused abruptly, and a powerful pressure sensation flashed across their bodies. It felt like when Wizard Leo had released his massive Mind Power earlier, making one unable to summon a single shred of resistance.
“Wizard Leo, welco once again to Abyss Fort. In all these years, you’re the only Wizard from outside who has been allowed into Abyss Fort twice!”
Wizard Hobbes stepped to one side and invited Wizard Leo and rlin into Abyss Fort. It was evident that Wizard Leo’s ntion of “Darkness Eye” had attracted Wizard Hobbes’ significant interest. Otherwise, as Spell Casters from the Dark Magic Region, Wizard Leo and rlin would not have been able to enter Abyss Fort.
Therefore, rlin followed behind Wizard Leo and entered the huge, pitch-black hole.
