Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After a glimmer of light appeared in the grey sky, the night was about to pass.

In the Dragon Castle, the butler had just arrived at the hall.

Beside him, there was a giant messenger. They both walked forward toward Mike, the Castle Lord of the Dragon Castle.

The butler knew that messenger. He was the smartest giant gopher in the Dragon Castle.

When Mike asked him to find a smart messenger, the butler was the one who brought the giant gopher to Mike.

Seeing the giant gopher return to the castle meant that the task given to it was completed. The butler planned to turn around and leave.

Suddenly, Mike’s voice came from behind the butler.

“Butler, wait a minute, I have something to talk to you about!”

After hearing Mike’s words, the butler turned around and walk towards Mike’s position again.

The giant gopher seemed to have received Mike’s praise and reward. A very ugly smile appeared on its pointy face, and then it disappeared from the butler’s sight.

When the butler walked over, Mike gestured for him to sit down first.

“Butler, the giant gopher not only completed the mission well, it also brought back some unexpected information!”

“Oh, what unexpected information?”

Mike did not keep him in suspense. He swiftly explained to the butler.

“The giant gopher found that the gnome dwarves have a very strange ritual. According to its description, it seems to be a kind of sacrificial activity similar to that of magi.”

“Ritual?”

The butler closed his eyes and started to search for memories in his mind. After a while, the butler seemed to have thought of something and turned to Mike.

“Master, although I am a native, I know very little about rituals. However, I have been to the underground world before and saw something similar to a ritual, but that is something that the magi usually practice!”

“Yes, magi!”

Mike stood up from his chair and said his guess while moving his body.

“I have been wondering why the gnome dwarves would attack our Dragon Castle. The Castle Lords of the Anti-dragon Alliance had just been destroyed not long ago.”

The butler understood what Mike meant.

If the gnome dwarves wanted to destroy the human castle in the Misty Forest, they would definitely perform some investigations into target castles.

At that time, the Dragon Castle was being besieged by the Anti-dragon Alliance. The result was that under Mike’s leadership, the Dragon Castle wiped out the entire Anti-dragon Alliance army.

It was impossible for the gnome dwarves to not know about this event. This event shocked the entire Otherworld.

However, although they knew the strength of the Dragon Castle, they are actually still going to attack the Dragon Castle.

The hidden purpose was far from being as simple as it seemed on the surface. The butler thought for a while and looked at Mike again.

“Master, do you mean that the gnomes’ actions are related to the magi?”

“We all know that there are no traces of magi activities in the Misty Forest and the underground world where the gnomes live!”

Mike also knew that the butler’s information was true, but he did not know that not far from the Dragon Castle, there were three powerful magi hiding in the Castle of Gods.

Moreover, even the leader of the Alliance of Gods did not know that the magi secretly used dark magic behind his back. They lured the gnomes to launch an attack on the Dragon Castle.

After the gnomes successfully took down the Dragon Castle, their next target would be the Alliance of Gods.

No one knew what the three magi were up to. This was also the reason why magi had such a bad reputation. No one was willing to deal with magi.

However, the leader of the Alliance of Gods dared to do so. The leader would definitely pay a painful price for his actions.

Mike said to the butler, “Butler, do you still remember the Dark Continent mentioned before?”
