Glyn turned around and saw that Nozama was looking at him from his black skeletal throne. On both sides of his throne stood ten or so demons. These were all Nozama’s most trusted subordinates. Some of them even posed a threat to Glyn’s position as Nozama’s second in command.
The crowd of demons was smiling at him nastily.
Glyn’s heart was now racing in him. His knees gave way, and he fell to his knees unceremoniously. “Master, I beg you. Please allow me to explain what I had to go through in that realm before you punish me.”
“Speak then,” said Nozama, nodding. He had always been a reasonable man, and Glyn was also one of his most competent subordinates.
Glyn let out a sigh of relief. He then began recounting the moment he and his two underlings were summoned by the Magicians of Troym into their realm; the Protector’s appearance, which was subsequently followed by the Black Dragon Link’s appearance; and finally, how the Black Dragon easily brought the Troym army to its knees. He did not leave out anything as he described in detail the power levels of all parties involved and what happened during the battle with the Black Dragon.
When he was finished, Nozama frowned. “You said that he just stood there, completely ignoring the Level-10 spell that was aimed at him. Are you sure he didn’t cast a defensive spell on himself beforehand?”
“No, I was closely observing him at the time. I did not sense any magical aura from him. I am sure of what I saw. The spell simply slid off him like rainwater.”
Glyn was a Level-15 Magician. Though his power had been heavily suppressed back then, his observational skills were not at all affected. He definitely could not have imagined what he saw with his own eyes.
Things did not look good. The fact that a Level-10 spell had no effect whatsoever on Link suggested that he was now more powerful than anyone had anticipated. Even Nozama could not achieve such a feat.
From Glyn’s account, Nozama estimated that his power would be reduced to at most Level-10 if he were to enter that realm without any summoner splitting the burden of the Dimensional Rejection with him. Even he would be decimated by a Level-10 magical attack at that point.
Nozama tapped a restless finger on one of the armrests of his throne. All the other demons were now holding their breaths, fearing that their breathing might distract their master. Glyn remained kneeling on the ground, not even daring to take a breath himself. His heart was now pounding in anticipation of whatever punishment Nozama had in store for him.
Seconds passed agonizingly. Ten minutes later, Nozama spoke once more, “The lord of Ferde never ceases to surprise me. I imagine he still has a few tricks up his sleeve if he thinks he can venture into the Sea of Void on his own. And now he’s holed up in this backwater realm. Knowing him, he may even stay there for a hundred more years if he has to. Picking a fight with him there may not be a wise move. If that’s the case, we’ll just have to return to our previous objective: finding the Seal of Light!”
“Yes, Master.” All the demons nodded around him.
Nozama then looked at Glyn again. “As for you, Glyn, you’ve been a loyal servant of mine, perhaps ten times more loyal than those traitorous imbeciles Gaulle and Gamiwa. You’re also a lot more intelligent than those two. You’ve proven yourself to be an invaluable asset. Stand up; you are not at fault for the failure of this mission.”
Glyn was overjoyed. “Many thanks, Master! Many thanks!”
In the past, Nozama would usually conjure some cruel punishment to deal with those who failed him. This was the first time he had forgiven someone for his failure. It would seem that Glyn had made the right choice.
Nozama then turned to look out of one of the portholes on the side of the Void Ferry. A vast realm flickered in the distance outside the Ferry. He smirked. “Another world waiting to be conquered. I’m coming, love.”
The Void Ferry let out a soft hum as it turned towards this new realm.
