Chapter 183 (1/2)

At the East Cove Magic Academy

Because of Tarviss' sudden appearance, the Magicians of the academy had been rooted to the spot with fear and terror Even the prisoners who had just broken free froht of the demon's release

”Lord of Light, what have I gotten ician prisoner ”I' spell and took off into the sky, fleeing the scene as far and as quickly as he possibly could

”I'm no match for this demon,” said another escaped prisoner as a Level-7 Necroain!” Suddenly, a pair of wings flapped open on his back, and he flapped the wings a few ti off into the air just like the previous prisoner, leaving the academy within seconds

The rest of the escaped Magicians responded si locked away in that damned tower for centuries; there was no way they would act like fools and stay here in the academy and face certain death

In just a few seconds after the release of the deicians were left Of the three, one was Bale as controlled by Manrod, another was the Level-7 Lich, and the third was a Level-6 Magician

Oh, and of course there was the roaring ic Acade his revenge He didn't retreat for a single step after the appearance of the demon Tarviss Instead, he was excited to see such a powerful potential ally

”Excellent,” he said enthusiastically ”I was just in need of a strong ally! You ht, and we'll devour all of these puny Magicians!”

The icians at the Azura Tower heard hi the tiger's words

”I bet,” said the Level-7 Lich finally, ”the little kitten will get trampled to death by Tarviss soon

”Haha, no,” said the Level-6 occult Magician ”Lord Tarviss will utilize the tiger's pohile it is still useful Only when he is no longer of any value to hiician was only wearing a pair of pants while his upper body was co a body ripped with muscles and dark brown skin Countless occultic runes covered his whole body, and his eyes were pure onyx black without any signs of the white of the eyes These features of his cut a strikingly peculiar figure even a all the other prisoners of the Azura Tower

Manrod, on the other hand, had little interest in the Wind Tiger's fate He stared at the other two Magicians there and laughed

”I know you,” he said, ”aren't you the Bloode Talon?”

”Indeed, I ah ”I didn't expect anyone to still remember me even after two hundred years”

”Of course you're still reician who sacrificed thousands of souls to the dedo continent Although, I don't understand why they didn't coe your body and soul…”

”Purgewith boastful pride ”They wanted to do that, for sure, but they didn't have enough power to do so You ician, so I couldn't have been all that powerful But the Master had bestowedsoul That meant that if they destroyed my body, all they would achieve was to unshackle my soul from its bodily prison so I would be invincible and free! Hahaha!”

”Undying soul?” said Manrod, who then nodded ”Not a bad deal at all Are you staying here for revenge?”

”Why else?” replied Talon ”I've been locked up in here for 200 years Now that I've got ot to e?” Then, Talon rushed straight towards the site where Tarviss was e

Manrod then turned towards the Level-7 Lich

”What about you?” he asked ”Why are you still here?”

The Lich turned around to face Manrod His bluish ghostly flames in his hollow eye sockets flickered as he let out a cold, mirthless chuckle in answer to Manrod's question

”I'm only a casual observer,” said the Lich

Manrod recognized the Lich the moment he heard his voice

”You're Vance!” he said ”The man in the prison who didn't want to escape!”

”You're right,” replied the Lich Suddenly his body was blanketed in a layer of pale white ed a hazy voice that said, ”I have a feeling that Tarviss will die tonight I can't wait to see how he'll die…”

As he spoke, the Lich's body gradually faded from view and blended into the mist Shortly after, the mist itself slowly dissipated When it vanished coone as well

Manrod knew, though, that the Lich didn't go anywhere He was still around here,his presence and aura

”What a strange fellow,” said Manrod with a shrug He took no notice of the Lich's words If Tarviss was alone in facing the attacks froht've been a sli But Tarviss wasn't alone The academy would have to face Manrod as well

Manrod controlled Bale's body and rushed straight into the heart of the East Cove Academy, ready to help Tarviss

Black fog billowed out of the giant gaping pit in thethat ca was destroyed—the trees and plants wilted and withered, and even the dirt turned into black ashes In a short period, the square had completely turned into a blackened wasteland

Although it was a horrifying sight, this was the best opportunity to attack Tarviss The Magicians of the East Cove Magic Academy were no cowards They sensed that it was the best ly

”Attack!!!”

Then, an eye-catching colued out of Heaven's Thorn that focused on the hole in the square—it was a signal for the target of the Magicians' attack

Shortly after, a large beaht with a diae Towers Each light beareen, blue, yellohite, red and gold—each representing a type of element

These light beaed 500 feet into the sky into a dark purple beaht that was about 70 feet in diay was so great that the Magicians could feel the warht beahtened up the whole sky until the night seemed to have turned to day!

But that wasn't all

The position of the light beaht above the Heaven's Thorn, where another intense white beaed with the dark purple beam Immediately afterwards, a tsunaht beaitated by it, so much so that flocks of birds took up to the sky and fled away from the nearby Girvent Forest while wild animals there were driven to panic in droves as well Even the inhabitants of the River Cove Town could feel the unsettling vibrations in the air at the time

This was Anthony's prepared attack to fight against the dee Towers of the acadeth to synchronize and combine into a formidable Level-8 attack spell!

The dark purple light beaan to oscillate Then, after two seconds the ht beam of more than 10 feet in diameter struck precisely at the hole in the center of the Inspiration Courtyard
