Chapter 865: Returned to Its Rightful Owner!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In a spacious, lavish room in Wilson Castle, a slim man with a head of lustrous, long, golden hair was acting restless, pacing constantly.
The blonde man was about twenty-something of age. His face still carried a trace of tenderness but he also exuded vigorous fluctuations, only they were not very powerful, merely at the stage of a Fourth-level Wizard.
"Conlin, stop worrying. The royal family is influential. I'm happy that I could escape alive and hide in Wilson Castle for a few days. It's just that no one has ever hidden from Bhutto XVII successfully. I'll surrender myself. Bhutto XVII will only stop worrying, no longer using every possible means against the Wilson clan when he's cut things off at the root."
Suddenly, the female Wizard in bed, wearing a white long Wizard Robe, looking fresh and pure, stood up. She gently held the man's hand, appearing reluctant to part.
"Angie, don't worry. Although Bhutto XVII is influential, he's always regarded our Wilson clan highly. For the past few days, you've seen that many Spell Casters are monitoring us from outside. They know you're here but they still daren't enter. Father will resolve this matter. Moreover, a few days ago, he's already discussed with me. He's ready to pass on the Wilson clan's dukedom to me. In the future, you'll be a duchess. His Majesty will surely take the Wilson clan into account, and no longer pursue the matter of your being a Spell Caster of Fog City."
Conlin spoke to reassure but he was somewhat anxious. Although the Wilson clan was now flourishing splendidly, it was still lacking by far compared to the royal family. Under His Majesty the King's power, the Wilson clan was unable to resist.
"Master Conlin, bad news. Great Wizard Anlin of the royal family has personally visited Sir Duke!"
A guard's panicked voice came from outside.
"What? Great Wizard Anlin had come personally?"
Conlin's expression shifted greatly as he gripped Angie's hand even tighter, afraid that once he let go, he would never see Angie again.
Angie heaved a long sigh. She knew that Great Wizard Anlin had always been the Great Wizard most trusted by Bhutto XVII. With his arrival, it looked like the Wilson clan could not protect her no matter what.
"Conlin, let me go. Bhutto XVII might still go easy on all of you, considering the Wilson clan's ancestor. I'm the one they're looking for!"
Angie struggled out from Conlin's grip. She broke out into an angelic smile which yet induced a sense of misery.
"No, no, Angie. I'll go with you!"
After a long moment, Conlin had made a choice. He straightened his clothes and immediately opened the door. Just as he was about to head downward, a guard hurried forward. Upon seeing Conlin, the guard said quickly, "Master Conlin, the Duke asks that you bring Miss Angie down."
Conlin's face shifted slightly. Despite preparing himself for this, in this actual moment, he was somewhat at a loss.
Conversely, Angie seemed prepared for this. She had escaped from Fog City and traveled to Wilson Castle. Naturally, she knew of the royal family's influence. By now, they had controlled the entire continent. Even the Spell Caster world had fallen to pieces. In this continent, there was nowhere she could hide, and no one who could go against Bhutto XVII's will.
She knew that this day would come eventually!
"Conlin, come on. Let's go down."
Angie and Conlin trailed behind the guard, swiftly making their way toward the living room below.
Soon, both of them arrived in the living room. Except Duke Wilson, Wizard Havens and another person who wore a black robe, stood before the living room's portrait with his hands clasped behind his back. They could only see his back.
"Father, Wizard Havens."
Conlin bowed slightly toward Duke Wilson and Wizard Havens, then cast an unfriendly gaze at the stranger in the black robe. He felt that this must be Great Wizard Anlin.
"Conlin, quickly pay respects to your ancestor."
Duke Wilson spoke lowly but his voice revealed an irrepressible delight.
"Ancestor?"
Conlin was rather stunned but that black-robed Wizard had turned around, displaying a young face. Only those eyes were incomparably abstruse.
However, Conlin's expression had changed completely. This person looked quite similar to him.
"Father, this…"
"Get on with paying your respects. This is the ancestor of the Wilson clan, Wizard Merlin!"
Seeing that Conlin was still stunned, Duke Wilson exhorted hurriedly.
Angie was dumbstruck with her mouth agape. She looked up quickly toward the portrait hanging in the living room, then matched it to the stranger before her. Indeed, they were alike, even in presence.
At this point, how could she not know that this was Wizard Merlin who had become a legend of the Spell Caster world centuries ago? He had finally returned!
"Ancestor!"
"Wizard Merlin!"
Conlin and Angie paid their respects without delay. A legendary figure, the ancestor of the Wilson clan from past centuries, had shown up in Wilson Castle. Both of them were still somewhat bewildered.
"Not bad, a Fourth-level Spell Caster. Your father said that you have a knack for runes?"
Merlin sat down and looked at Conlin with keen interest. Naturally, he could detect a faint, familiar force in the other person's blood. This was unique to him. It was truly his lineal descendant.
"Ancestor, Conlin's talent with runes is even greater than mine. That's why I've decided to pass on the dukedom to him."
Duke Wilson said quickly. He did not wish to give his ancestor the impression that he neglected the Wilson clan for the sake of his son.
Merlin nodded wordlessly. He now realized that the Runic Heartprint he had left behind was now an emblem of the Wilson clan's successive dukedom. Only someone who was gifted in runes and had decent Spell Caster Quality could ultimately inherit the Wilson clan's dukedom and receive the Runic Heartprint.
"Is your ancestry Charise or Avril?"
Merlin remembered that he had two wives back then, and each had left behind descendants for him.
"Ancestor, we're descended from Charise!"
Just as Merlin guessed, they shared Charise's blood.
Merlin thought about Charise once more. Once a haughty princess, then a capable lady, finally an old woman of white hair. Most of her life had been spent in the Wilson clan.
"Angie, you're a Spell Caster of Fog City?"
Merlin looked again at this female Wizard in a white robe, who looked pure and sweet. Angie kept inducing in Merlin a sense of déjavu as if they had met before.
"Wizard Merlin, I'm a Spell Caster of Fog City but my ancestor is your disciple, Emma!"
"Emma?"
Merlin turned blank until his mind gradually recalled that beautiful young girl who had saved him in the maple forest. When she smiled, she was as sweet and pure as Angie.
"Ancestor, it's precisely because Angie has this link to our Wilson clan, and she's engaged to Conlin, that I'm unwilling to hand her over to Bhutto XVII."
Duke Wilson spoke cautiously. Before this ancestor, he felt an unprecedented level of pressure.
"Ancestor, please don't hand Angie over."
Conlin gripped Angie's hand firmly, his expression flashing with determination.
As he looked at Conlin and Angie's mutual love, Merlin smiled softly. All through his life, he only had relations with three women – Charise, Avril, and the maidservant Laurinka. Nonetheless, Merlin did not experience an unforgettable love with these three women. He had always chased after the essence of being a Spell Caster, seeking for greater powers.
Although he had never experienced a love like this, he would not stand in the way of Conlin and Angie's happiness.
"Conlin, with our ancestor here, who would dare pursue the matter of Angie? Earlier, Great Wizard Anlin had left. Even if our ancestor hadn't shown up, Bhutto XVII no longer planned to pursue this matter. You can rest easy."
Although Duke Wilson's tone was one of rebuke, he was inwardly filled with relief. Considering the royal family's present power, Merlin's return was highly significant to the Wilson clan.
"Swish."
Merlin suddenly made a grab, and with irresistible force plucked out the Runic Heartprint from Duke Wilson's brow, cutting off its connection to Duke Wilson.
"Ancestor…"
Duke Wilson felt a small shock. This Runic Heartprint was the symbol of the successive Wilson dukedom.
The Runic Heartprint hovered above Merlin's palm as he spoke calmly, "I had initially given this Runic Heartprint only to Felinda, letting her understand Runic Magic Circles to better protect the Wilson clan. To think that after she died, this Runic Heartprint was given to the Wilson clan and turned into an emblem of the successive Wilson dukedom. In truth, the Runic Heartprint belonged to the Dark Magic Region. I've brought it out from there. Now, it's time for it to be returned to its rightful owner, the Dark Magic Region."
With that, Merlin pointed and this Runic Heartprint transformed into a river of light, imprinting into Wizard Havens' forehead. Instantly, Havens sensed a new power from the Runic Heartprint.
"How mystical. I can wield Runic Magic Circles in an instant?"
Havens was astounded. He finally knew how Duke Wilson was able to create a few formidable Runic Magic Circles all at once. It turned out he had relied on the Runic Heartprint's ability.
"I'm very grateful to Wizard Merlin. Your care toward our Dark Magic Region in the past has already earned our endless gratitude."
Wizard Havens naturally knew the function of this Runic Heartprint. If he could put it to good use and unleash its capability, he would be even stronger than a Great Wizard.
Deep down, Duke Wilson was slightly rueful. No one knew about the might of the Runic Heartprint better than he did. Nevertheless, this was the ancestor's decision, and he dared not raise any objections.
"Alright, let's go. Take me to my father's grave."
Now that Merlin had returned to Wilson Castle, of course, he wanted to visit the graves of his father, Charise, and the rest. They had been the ones closest to him in this world.
Chapter 866: Bhutto XVII!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
On a hillside in Blackwater City, there was a clearing, surrounded by shady trees. This was the Wilson clan's cemetery, where successive generations of the Wilson clan were buried.
Duke Wilson watched as Merlin approach the ancient burial mounds, saying softly, "Ancestor, this is where we buried our predecessors."
Merlin waved his hand, following which Duke Wilson deferentially took his leave, and Merlin was left alone.
As he stared at the names on the gravestones, Merlin's thoughts returned to the Blackwater City of the past. At that time, his father Old Wilson was still a dignified baron but now, Old Wilson had been lying under this mound for who-knew-how-many years.
"Father."
Merlin stroked the rough headstone. The cold sensation seemed to penetrate his heart. He had gotten used to death long ago, even witnessing the rise and fall of so many civilizations. Nonetheless, at this moment, standing before the grave, he was merely Old Wilson's son.
Following that, Merlin continued looking to the side, seeing Charise, Avril, and even his son Conxion, and the rest. Merlin was only familiar with a part of the Wilson clan from before. As for the other graves, they were the successive generations of the Wilson clan, Merlin's lineal descendants, but he had never met them.
Merlin stood before the graves silently, recalling scenes from the past as if it was just yesterday. Back then, Old Wilson's lifelong dream was to pass on the "Wilson" family name. Merlin had helped Old Wilson achieve this goal. In the entire Kingdom of Blackmoon, the Wilson clan was well renowned, the first-rate clan.
Therefore, even if he was dead, Old Wilson had departed in contentment.
After an unknown amount of time, a breeze brushed past, carrying a chill. At last, Merlin slowly turned around and left the cemetery.
"Ancestor."
Duke Wilson was still waiting outside the cemetery.
Merlin glanced at Duke Wilson and seemed to guess his thoughts, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. "Are you still ruing the loss of the Runic Heartprint?"
Duke Wilson went blank and an embarrassed look crossed his face. He knew that he could not conceal his thoughts from Merlin. To Duke Wilson, the Runic Heartprint was too useful to the Wilson clan. However, now it was given to the Dark Magic Region. It was truly a loss.
"What's a mere Runic Heartprint? Remember, your family name is Wilson. It's a noble name. Soon, the entire Kingdom of Blackmoon will know how fortunate it is for you to have this name."
Following that, Merlin did not explain to Duke Wilson any further. They would slowly learn about the Void Zone in the future. Moreover, Merlin had already decided to move the Wilson clan into Glory City. What was a mere Runic Heartprint?
"Now I should head to the Imperial City to meet that old friend of mine…"
Merlin raised his head to look toward the Imperial City.
…
In the magnificent palace of the Imperial City, ten or so Great Wizards who emanated vigorous Elemental fluctuations had all gathered, discussing something.
At their head was an imposing man who wore a crown and the sacred golden armor. It was Bhutto XVII who wielded the highest power in the entire Kingdom of Blackmoon!
Bhutto XVII's gaze swept over the ten or so Great Wizards below. He felt satisfied with his achievements. Back when he was merely the eighth prince in the Kingdom of Blackmoon, he had already harbored great ambitions.
In the end, after much difficulty, he succeeded the throne and became Bhutto XVII, governing the Kingdom of Blackmoon in an orderly manner. However, a war against the Holy Light Empire erupted, and a crisis loomed.
Although that was a crisis, it was also Bhutto XVII's opportunity. With help from the formidable Wizard Merlin and the entire Spell Caster world, he led the Kingdom of Blackmoon to defeat the Holy Light Empire, and unified the entire continent.
Nevertheless, that was just the beginning!
There were still many things Bhutto XVII wished to do, so he spent much time accumulating his forces, finally seizing control of the royal family's Elders' Court in one move. From then on, the Elders' Court had no way of interfering with the Kingdom of Blackmoon's kingship. As long as Bhutto XVII did not die, he could possess the Kingdom of Blackmoon's kingship completely.
This was the first step – to unify the continent. Bhutto XVII's ambition did not stop there. The biggest threat he faced came from the Spell Caster world. A Spell Caster world that did not obey his commands was something Bhutto XVII could not tolerate.
In the past, the Kingdom of Blackmoon had considered itself to be the successor of the Molta Empire but in truth, how could it compare? In the Molta Empire's era, the empire's influence was tremendous. With one command, no Spell Caster would dare disobey. However, the Kingdom of Blackmoon was helpless against the Spell Caster world.
Thus, Bhutto XVII secretly accumulated power for centuries, ultimately controlling the southern Spell Caster world step by step, then defeating the northern Seven Major Spell Caster organizations. Currently, there was only the relatively special Dark Magic Region left, along with a few Spell Caster factions scattered around other places. In the entire continent, no one could contend against the royal family.
Only the present Kingdom of Blackmoon might match up to the previous Molta Empire!
All this was an outcome orchestrated singlehandedly by Bhutto XVII through centuries of effort. He was filled with a sense of achievement. However, he found that the moment the Seven Major Spell Caster organizations fell to pieces, he suddenly felt empty. In the entire continent, no person or power could contend against him, making him feel hollow and purposeless.
"Perhaps that person is still around…"
A familiar figure occasionally popped up in Bhutto XVII's mind. Perhaps only that person who had defeated the Holy Light Empire by himself could bring him excitement.
Nonetheless, that person had not appeared for centuries. Perhaps he was dead or might never show up again.
"Your Majesty, now there are only the Dark Magic Region and that Wilson clan left. Their territory is that large, and they're on the same side. Moreover, they're a Spell Caster clan whose strength isn't weaker than a spell casters' organization. Since our Kingdom of Blackmoon is cracking down on all spell casters' organizations, not even sparing the southern and northern Spell Caster world, then the Wilson clan and the Dark Magic Region naturally, mustn't be exempted."
A Great Wizard with a youthful appearance and long blue robe said loudly.
"Humph, Wizard Minway, how long have you been a Spell Caster? Two centuries or three? Do you know who the ancestor of the Wilson clan is?"
The opposing Great Wizard immediately stood up and retorted.
"The ancestor of the Wilson clan? Isn't that the mysterious Wizard Merlin? It's something from centuries ago. Although I've never experienced it myself, I know something about it. Wizard Merlin had done a service for the Kingdom of Blackmoon but that was centuries ago. He had never shown up and is likely dead. Even if he isn't, and he appears once more, would we be afraid of a mere Spell Caster with the kingdom's current capability? So what if he's a peak Great Wizard? He's still one man in the end – can he rival an entire kingdom?"
This Great Wizard named Minway believed that he as a Great Wizard standing at the peak of the Kingdom of Blackmoon's Spell Casters, he no longer had to fear anyone or anything.
From his perspective, Wizard Merlin was surely a Great Wizard back then. So what if he was the strongest Great Wizard? How mighty was the kingdom's power now? It was far beyond a mere Spell Caster to turn the tide…
"Rival an entire kingdom? Back then, Wizard Merlin defeated the Holy Light Empire all by himself. A god had even appeared. Wizard Minway, some of us had gone through that war ourselves, witnessing Wizard Merlin's power with our own eyes."
Naturally, the opposing Spell Caster was not to be outdone, snorting coldly. Any Wizard who had witnessed Merlin defeating the Church of Light back then, even if they became a Great Wizard, would be unable to erase that shocking scene from their minds.
"Your Majesty, Great Wizard Anlin has returned."
Suddenly, a guard entered the palace and reported.
"Oh? Great Wizard Anlin is back? Please!"
Bhutto XVII narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Great Wizard Anlin who had hurried back, covered in dust. This time, Bhutto XVII had sent him to the Wilson clan for a crucial matter – to see if he could find any clues regarding Merlin.
Soon, Great Wizard Anlin had come inside, bowing slightly to Bhutto XVII. "Your Majesty, I've just hurried back from the Wilson clan. Angie of Fog City is in Wilson Castle indeed. However, Duke Wilson would rather pass on the dukedom to Conlin, requesting Your Majesty to not pursue Angie. I've already conveyed your intentions to Duke Wilson."
"So, did you find any clues regarding Wizard Merlin?"
This was what Bhutto XVII was most interested in.
"Your Majesty, I've already examined the Wilson clan thoroughly and found no trace of Wizard Merlin. In the past centuries, Wizard Merlin hadn't returned to the Wilson clan."
Anlin reported everything he found out in detail. At once, that Great Wizard Minway became more excited, exclaiming, "Your Majesty, let me bring a team. The Wilson clan and the Dark Magic Region will cease to exist."
"Hmm?"
Bhutto XVII jerked his head up and frowned. "Wizard Minway, don't bring this up again. In the past, I'd promised Wizard Merlin to look after the Wilson clan. No matter what they do, I won't pursue the matter. That's my promise! As for the Dark Magic Region, Great Wizard Anlin and Minway, both of you will lead a team to visit them. I believe the Dark Magic Region now knows that they're in an unfavorable situation. Let them dissolve voluntarily and enter the royal family. Don't be too hard on them. After all, they have a special relationship with Wizard Merlin."
Bhutto XVII said solemnly. There was no room for discussion. This was his command.
"Your Majesty, for my sake, could you pardon the Dark Magic Region?"
Suddenly, a breezy voice rang in Bhutto XVII's ear. Instantly, he trembled all over and looked up furiously with an incredulous look.
Nevertheless, the current palace was abnormally silent. The ten or so Great Wizards in the main foyer had become immobile, without a single twitch, their eyes revealing a vacant look.
Chapter 867: The Arrival!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The foyer fell into silence. The other Great Wizards moved not a muscle. Only Bhutto XVII could see his surroundings clearly and move freely.
He saw a beam of dusky light and soon became dazzling, from which out walked a black-robed figure.
"You're… Wizard Merlin?"
Bhutto XVII was astonished. In the past centuries, he had used every method but still could not find any trace of Merlin. He even suspected sometimes if Merlin was dead.
However, having witnessed Merlin rise up step by step to finally display an ability to slay gods, Bhutto XVII's innermost thoughts constantly reminded himself that Merlin would not die so easily.
Perhaps due to this, he did not renege on his previous promise by acting against the Wilson clan. Conversely, in the past centuries, he had always looked out for the Wilson clan.
"Your Majesty, we meet again. In a few centuries, it looks like Your Majesty has put a grand plan into action, almost able to compare to the Molta Empire of the past. Do you still have any regrets now?"
"Regrets?"
When Bhutto XVII saw Merlin appear, he was initially startled but after gradually calming down, he knew that these Great Wizards were useless against Merlin.
"What else would I regret? I control an enormous empire. The entire continent is in my grasp. Even the Spell Caster world has submitted to me completely. In this world, I'm a monarch of the highest power. What else would I regret?"
Bhutto XVII bore a heroic manner. Merlin had known him back when he was merely the eighth prince. From Merlin's perspective, a mere king in the Glorious Land could not even compare to an ordinary Legend.
Nonetheless, this was the highest achievement of an ordinary Spell Caster like Bhutto XVII. In the Glorious Land, he had enjoyed absolute authority in controlling a massive empire. With one command, even Great Wizards had to obey. Indeed, there was nothing Bhutto XVII would regret.
"Your Majesty, you may not have any now but soon, you will. This world is far too small. Let me show you a place."
Merlin's voice remained calm as if he was meeting an old friend for a casual chat. A Maxim from his hand enveloped Bhutto XVII directly, following which he easily tore space apart and traveled through space.
"Whoosh."
In the pitch-black, icy Void Zone, two figures popped up suddenly. Bhutto XVII who wore the sacred golden armor, being a Great Wizard himself, stared speechlessly at this dark, cold sweep of Void Zone.
"This is the Void Zone. There's no space nor time. Behind you is the Kingdom of Blackmon or what the Spell Caster civilization calls the Glorious Land! It's the origin of the Spell Caster civilization…"
Merlin did not explain in great detail, only outlining the matters of the Void Zone, the Spell Caster civilization, and the dimensions. Bhutto XVII had a rough understanding of the disappearances of many powerful Spell Casters three thousand six hundred years ago after the Molta Empire had collapsed.
He had thought that these formidable Spell Casters were dead but now, it appeared that they had entered the Void Zone and even established a glorious, flourishing Spell Caster civilization.
The golden age of Spell Casters had never ended. Instead, the current Spell Caster civilization was even more splendid. The Glorious Land, other than enjoying the prestige of being the Spell Caster civilization's origin, was merely one of the countless dimensions in the Spell Caster civilization.
"The past few years, Wizard Merlin has been in the Void Zone. You're now a Legendary Wizard, I suppose?"
From some ancient books of the Molta Empire, Bhutto XVII had learned that the Great Legends were strongest among Spell Casters, comparable to mighty gods!
Merlin replied noncommittally as he nodded. "I guess you could say that."
He did not further clarify. Now that the Glorious Land was unsealed, Bhutto XVII and the other Spell Casters in the Glorious Land would naturally, slowly comprehend how weak they were in the past.
"Wizard Merlin, you've brought me here surely not just to look at the Void Zone?"
Bhutto XVII's emotions were in a turbulent mess, clueless as to what Merlin's objective was.
Merlin stared evenly at Bhutto XVII, saying mildly, "Your Majesty, we knew each other back when you were still the eighth prince. To me, you're quite a familiar old friend. I want to thank you, old friend, for not going back on your promise and taking care of the Wilson clan for centuries."
After a pause, Merlin continued, "Besides thanking you for the care you've shown the Wilson clan, I wish to show you that even the greatest empires such as the Molta Empire can collapse in a day."
"Boom."
Merlin waved his hand casually. A terrifying ray from the Flame Maxim sped directly toward a barren dimension in the distant Void Zone. Instantly, that barren dimension fell to pieces under Merlin's Flame Maxim. A dimension, comparable to the Glorious Land, disintegrated just like that, crushed into fragments at Merlin's will.
Bhutto XVII was dumbstruck as he gaped. He wished to know, was this the strength of a Legend? Even if one was as mighty as the Molta Empire, what could one do if they encountered a power like this?
Bhutto XVII suddenly felt that everything he had done before was ridiculous. He had used a few centuries to unify the entire continent but ultimately discovered that it was a futile effort!
"In the past, the Glorious Land was sealed for special reasons. Now, I've opened it up. So, any Great Wizard or even Seventh, Eight or Ninth-level Spell Casters who are unafraid of risks, can leave the Glorious Land."
Bhutto XVII nodded. Following that, Merlin brought Bhutto XVII back to the Glorious Land once more.
"Whoosh."
Both of them emerged in the foyer but Bhutto XVII felt as if he was in a dream. The Great Wizards below still wore vacant expressions without moving at all.
"Wizard Merlin, these Wizards…"
Merlin withdrew his Mind Power. Instantly, these Great Wizards woke up from the illusion. When they saw that an additional figure had appeared beside Bhutto XVII, some of their faces changed greatly as they cried out in surprise, "Wizard Merlin?"
"It really is Wizard Merlin!"
These Great Wizards had seen Merlin before, so naturally, they recognized him at a glance. As for the new Great Wizards who were headed by Minway, they secretly became wary.
"Wizard Merlin, you've returned just in time. Things are different today. Back then, you'd done the Kingdom of Blackmoon a great service but now, your clan and the Dark Magic Region no longer align with the kingdom's interest. Therefore…"
Before he could finish, Merlin's invisible Mind Power started fluctuating. Wizard Minway's expression turned slack as he slowly raised his hand, beginning to conjure up a powerful spell.
"What's going on? Why am I not in control of my body, no…"
Minway was shocked to discover he was mobilizing Magic Power to wield a spell but the target of that spell was himself.
"Fire!"
Merlin's voice was soft but as soon as he spoke, Great Wizard Minway unleashed the Fire-type spell, submerging himself in the blazing fire.
Soon, Great Wizard Minway's body was reduced to ashes, and his force had vanished completely. A powerful Great Wizard could put up no resistance. Merlin did not even have to attack. He had "killed himself" under Merlin's control.
A death like this would seem incomparably reprehensible if others learned about this.
At this point, some of the new Wizards could not help but feel a chill in their hearts. They had heard of rumors regarding Merlin but had always felt that these were exaggerations, that it was the older Great Wizards who had feared Merlin.
Now, they felt that the words of the older Great Wizards did not convey Merlin's fearsomeness at all. Being able to control a Great Wizard with one look – a technique like this far exceeded their imaginations.
"I've only come at this time to meet an old friend. The Glorious Land has been unsealed. I should leave."
Merlin glanced at Bhutto XVII. Surely Bhutto XVII knew by now, how laughable the Kingdom of Blackmoon was in the Spell Caster civilization.
Bhutto XVII hurriedly stood up. "Wizard Merlin, will we meet again in the Void Zone?"
"We can, of course! I'll move the Glorious Land beside Glory City, where I am. If there's a chance, we'll surely meet again…"
With that, Merlin's figure disappeared as if he was never there, leaving behind only those Great Wizards who exchanged blank looks. They did not quite understand what Merlin meant.
What Glorious Land, what Void Zone… Nonetheless, some of the keener observers noticed Bhutto XVII's serious expression, and they knew that the Kingdom of Blackmoon would be greatly transformed.
…
"Hoo…"
In the peaceful Void Zone, great waves were stirred up at this moment. Three Aurora warships appeared before the Spell Caster civilization.
"It should be here. The coordinates of the dimension map aren't far from here."
In the three Aurora warships were Laerin, Sirin, and Hayrin who had traveled a long way from the Great Light Region. With Laerin in the lead, they had gone through a long journey to finally reach the coordinates indicated on the dimension map.
"This is so remote. Without the Aurora warships, we can't even reach this place in a hundred million years. Nonetheless, this fits the conditions of the confinement dimension left behind by the Vestigial Tribe. Who knows, those two Light Envoys might have discovered a confinement dimension of the Vestigial Tribe."
Hayrin gave a careful analysis. Other than to uncover what happened to the two Light Envoys, the more crucial reason for their arrival was to search for the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension. This was personally ordered by the Great Light Honorable Lord.
"There seems to be a civilization here. Looking through them one by one is troublesome. Let's wipe out some immediately and force out the strongest contenders of this civilization. We can directly ask and find out if they've seen the two Light Envoys!"
Sirin immediately spoke tyrannically. Contenders from the Great Light Region usually acted in this domineering manner.
Laerin, who was their head, considered the idea then nodded. "Let's act then!"
"Rumble."
The three Light Guardian immediately kept their Aurora warships. Their bodies flashed mightily with the tremendous power of the natural order, condensing countless gigantic fists that gently pounded the endless surrounding dimensions. These dimensions were annihilated in a flash, turned into fragments.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of dimensions were destroyed. The entire Spell Caster civilization was shaken up!
Chapter 868: Conceited!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
By now, the Spell Caster civilization was extremely illustrious. They could not figure out who would still dare to provoke the Spell Caster civilization and in such a manner.
"Who is it that's provoking our Spell Caster civilization?"
"Even the God Alliance was destroyed by us. Has someone gone mad?"
Many Legends and Honored Legends in the dimensions flew out in astonishment. Nevertheless, when they spotted the three curiously-dressed figures, all of them trembled simultaneously.
"They're ultimate existences. Quick, report to Arcane City!"
Thus, the news circulated swiftly, soon reaching Arcane City. In the present, the Spell Caster civilization still had three great Arcane Cities – Augustus Arcane City, Ceci Arcane City, and of course the most special Glory City.
Among these, Glory City was the most powerful!
However, at the moment, Merlin was not overseeing in Glory City, so when Augustus and Ceci received the news, they quickly hurried over.
"Swish swish."
Arcane Wizards Augustus and Ceci arrived with the mighty presence of the natural order's vast power. When they saw the three figures, their hearts sank a little. These were ultimate existences indeed.
"Who are you? Don't you know that this is our Spell Caster civilization?"
Wizard Augustus called out thunderously.
"Spell Caster civilization? Have you seen two Curved Horn ultimate existences?"
One of them, Laerin, asked bluntly.
"The Curved Horn Tribe?"
Augustus' and Ceci's expression shifted greatly. Were those not the two foreign tribe members Merlin had killed recently? Could they be contenders who had come from the Great Light Region?
Upon seeing the changes on Augustus' and Ceci's faces, Laerin exuded a cold force as he snorted. "It looks like you two know about those two Light Envoys. Go on, what happened to those two?"
When they noticed the unfriendly looks of the three foreign tribe members, Augustus and Ceci exchanged a glance. Although they were ultimate existences, ever since the two Curved Horn Creatures came by, they knew that all of the ultimate existences here were merely beginners. Compared to those truly powerful ultimate existences, there was still an immense disparity.
These three foreign tribe members had come a long way to search for those two Curved Horn Creatures. They must have impressive capabilities, at least no weaker than those two Curved Horn Creatures or even stronger. Therefore, Augustus and Ceci were no match by far. So, even if they clashed forcefully, they had no chance of winning.
With this in mind, they decided to stall for time, waiting for Merlin's return.
Thus, Augustus spoke, "Everyone, the two Curved Horn Creatures had found a Vestigial Tribe dimension here. We daren't enter that dimension for it can cut off the natural order's power. Therefore, the two Curved Horn Creatures went in and still haven't come out. Could it be that you're their companions?"
"A Vestigial Tribe dimension that could isolate the natural order?"
The expressions of Laerin, Hayrin, and Sirin shifted slightly but thereafter, they revealed great delight. This was similar to the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension that the Great Light Honorable Lord had asked them to look for. There was a high possibility this was the confinement dimension they were searching for.
If it was the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension, and those two Light Envoys had entered that dimension carelessly, it was hazardous indeed. They might have encountered danger within.
"I wonder if they're telling the truth?"
Hayrin cast an unfriendly glance at Augustus and Ceci. Although it was just a glance, Augustus and Ceci felt an immense pressure that was even stronger than the previous two Curved Horn Creatures.
"Whether it's the truth, we'll know once we take a look. Is there anything in this rural region that could threaten us? If it's the confinement dimension, and those two Light Envoys who are merely first-grade ultimate existences dare to enter the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension so carelessly, then they're courting death!"
Laerin laughed coldly. He was capable and thus, confident. Even without the three of them, he alone was assured that he could wipe out the Spell Caster civilization. As for Augustus and Ceci, both were beginner ultimate existences and were no threat to the three of them at all.
Crafty schemes and plots were rather useless at their stage. Even if they were lured into the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension, it was pointless. They were still Light Guardians – second-grade ultimate existences. They had stored plenty of the natural order's power within their body. The confinement dimension was futile against them.
"Alright, both of you lead the way and bring us to the Vestigial Tribe's dimension."
Laerin gradually released a trace of his force. Although it was just a trace, it made Augustus and Ceci endlessly appalled as it was difficult for them to even mobilize the natural order.
The disparity was too immense!
Thus, Augustus and Ceci nodded, leading Laerin and the rest toward Glory City. Nonetheless, their Maxim avatars headed in another direction, swiftly rushing to the Glorious Land to search for Merlin. Currently, only Merlin was capable of resolving the crisis.
…
"It's here, the Glorious Land!"
Outside the Glorious Land, two figures emerged suddenly. They were the Maxim avatars of Wizard Augustus and Ceci and had hurried here at their greatest speed.
"Even the seal is gone. It looks like Wizard Merlin has gone into the Glorious Land. Let's quickly locate him."
Thus, the two ultimate existences' Maxim avatars rapidly extended their consciousness into the Glorious Land. Even though they were only avatars, they were comparable to Lords. Therefore, searching through a mere dimension was a piece of cake to them.
At the moment, Merlin was carefully feeling the Glorious Land's Dimension Origin. He found that it was not complete, being slightly damaged. He did not know if it was Aruba or the great war against the Atlan civilization that had damaged the Glorious Land's Dimension Origin.
Therefore, Merlin was thinking of a way to slowly mend this Dimension Origin, which would take a longer time.
"Huh? Wizard Augustus, Wizard Ceci, is something the matter?"
Merlin had controlled the Glorious Land. Naturally, he immediately sensed the consciousness of Wizards Augustus and Ceci, so he stepped out of the Glorious Land, appearing before those two.
"Oh good, Glory Lord, we've finally found you! Three powerful foreign members had just arrived, looking for the two Curved Horn Creatures. They must be contenders who had come from the Great Light Region. They destroyed dozens of dimensions in one stroke. Fortunately, we've deceived them for now, leading them toward Glory City. We're using this chance to hurry over here and inform you."
Both of them were slightly panicked. The three foreign members' abilities were too formidable, and they felt unable to contend against those three.
"Oh? They're here so soon? That's good. Since they're heading to Glory City, there's still time! Both of you, enter my Aurora warship. We'll hurry to Glory City at the greatest speed."
Merlin did not hesitate at all. The Glorious Land could be moved later on, and the Dimension Origin could be slowly repaired. Nonetheless, first, he had to deal with the three powerful foreign members.
"Swoosh."
The three of them sat in the Aurora warship and swiftly flew toward Glory City.
…
In the icy Void Zone, five ultimate existences were using the power of the natural order to speed up, flying toward Glory City.
Initially, Augustus and Ceci still wore nervous expressions but as time passed, they became more collected. Nevertheless, every move of theirs was observed clearly by Laerin and the rest behind them.
"Oh no, something's fishy about them both. Let me interrogate them!"
Hayrin's face turned cold and she immediately wanted to confront Wizard Augustus and Ceci.
"Hold on. As if I didn't know they were up to something. These two ultimate existences, at most, are informing even stronger existences of their civilization but that's good as well. They surely have something to do with the deaths of the two Light Envoys. After their contenders have gathered, it'll save us the trouble of hunting them down one by one. Who knows if some of them might slip away, which would be troublesome too."
Laerin said, totally unconcerned.
The three of them were conceited to an extreme but they were entitled to act this way. They were three of the eighteen Light Guardians of the Great Light Region, having annihilated countless civilizations, some of which had dozens of ultimate existences or even ultimate contenders at the peak of the first-grade. Nonetheless, no one could withstand a single blow from any of them three.
Each grade of ultimate existences had inconceivable massive disparity. Otherwise, the eighteen fighters who were second-grade ultimate existences would not pledge allegiance to the third-grade Great Light Honorable Lord.
It was precisely due to this strength that Laerin was so confident. He did not believe that this rural region would have powerful existences. Those two Light Envoys would die, most likely because they had entered the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension. At their puny ultimate first-grade stage, certainly, they stored no natural order in their bodies. Entering the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension was equivalent to walking into a prison. They would have no way of using the natural order's power. Even a joint attack could easily kill those two Light Envoys.
It should be known that in the first place, the confinement dimension was used by the Vestigial Tribe to imprison ultimate existences and gods. The two Light Envoys who entered recklessly were idiotic to the extreme.
"Maybe they have tricks up their sleeves, luring us into the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension. If it's the confinement dimension, then we won't have to look for it, killing two birds with one stone!"
Laerin's words were supported by the other two Light Guardians. They were contenders of the ultimate second-grade. In the Void Zone, they stood at the pinnacle of fighters. Those who could slay them were extremely rare.
Perhaps a third-grade ultimate existence could do so but in such a remote territory, how could such an existence possibly appear?
Therefore, three of them were relaxed. Even though they knew Augustus and Ceci were acting fishy as if hatching a plan to deal with them, they did not expose the ruse, silently following behind Augustus and Ceci.
"We've reached the Vestigial Tribe dimension!"
Suddenly, Augustus stopped but a strange smirk stretched his lips.
Chapter 869: Kill!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Augustus and Ceci stopped and turned around, glaring coldly at Laerin and the rest.
Laerin's gaze was calm before his eyes finally revealed a spirited glint. He said mildly, "The person you've secretly informed – have they arrived? That's good. I don't feel like searching for them one by one. Since they're here, come out."
Electric snakes twisted around Laerin's body constantly. These electric snakes were a manifestation of the natural order which was condensed to the extreme. Most ultimate existences could not do this at all.
Sirin and Hayrin stood behind Laerin. The three second-grade ultimate existences exuded a force that faintly caused countless life forms in the surrounding dimensions to shudder.
Even Augustus and Ceci changed their expressions as they hurriedly glanced back.
"Roar…"
Suddenly, a roar ripped through the Void Zone. Laerin and the rest were quite flabbergasted.
Augustus and Ceci were pleased. "The Glory Lord is finally here!"
When they previously received news that Merlin had already returned to Glory City, they stopped here. Now that Merlin had arrived at last, they could rest easy.
Soon, an incomparably gigantic monster appeared in the spacious Void Zone. Its colossal frame was much bigger than most dimensions.
"Slothful Beast?"
The eyes of Laerin and the rest shone. This was a Slothful Beast, only to be found through luck. First-grade ultimate existences were helpless against the Slothful Beast.
Only ultimate existences of the second-grade or higher could injure the Slothful Beast slightly but even then, the damage was limited. As for controlling the Slothful Beast, that was a fool's dream. Forget about them. Even a third-grade ultimate existence like the Great Light Honorable Lord was unable to control the Slothful Beast.
Nonetheless, there was a Slothful Beast present now. On its back stood a black-robed figure. From the looks of it, this person could steer the gigantic Slothful Beast.
"To be able to control and steer the Slothful Beast, how wonderful! If we can gain this method of control, won't our capabilities be greatly enhanced among the second-grade of ultimate existences?"
Laerin, Sirin, and Hayrin were all at the ultimate second-grade. They knew profoundly how scary the Slothful Beast was. Although second-grade ultimate existences could injure the Slothful Beast, it was too difficult to kill it. If they could obtain the method of controlling the Slothful Beast, in one leap, they would immediately become existences second only to the Great Light Honorable Lord.
All at once, they were incomparably covetous. Compared to searching for the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension, they cared more about this method of commanding the Slothful Beast. After all, even if they had located the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension, they would hand it over to the Great Light Honorable Lord's control. They would not gain any benefits. However, controlling a Slothful Beast was different. That would increase their strength tangibly!
"Just you? It looks like those two Light Envoys were killed by you? Just this Slothful Beast alone is insufficient for you to kill them. You're not even a mere ultimate existence yet. The Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension that those two mentioned must be real."
At a glance, Laerin could tell that Merlin was not even an ultimate existence, and thus unable to kill the two Light Envoys. No matter how puny those two were, they were still at the peak of the ultimate first-grade. In this rural region, no one was stronger than the two Light Envoys.
Nonetheless, they linked this to the person who was commanding the Slothful Beast and controlling the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension. Luring those two Light Envoys into the dimension, in addition to controlling the Slothful Beast – the fearsome power that could erupt in the confinement dimension could have killed those two Light Envoys.
The more Laerin thought about it, the more this seemed likely. Still, he was not enraged. Those were merely two Light Envoys. If they could obtain the method of manipulating the Slothful Beast, so what if even more Light Envoys died?
"You dare to kill the Light Envoys of our Great Light Region – how brave! Oh well, we'll capture you first, then take our time to question you."
Laerin stuck first. He was even observing Sirin and Hayrin. There was only one Slothful Beast, which would augment his capability. Laerin would not allow anyone to compete for this.
Therefore, he used his strongest power in the first blow. All of the power of the natural order in his body exploded at once. Electric snakes swiftly gathered, turning into an enormous lightning serpent.
"Rumble."
The lightning serpent transformed from the natural order stretched its jaws, hissing as it flew toward Merlin. Furthermore, as an ultimate existence, Laerin could wield the natural order of the Void Zone, incessantly amplifying the giant lightning serpent. Therefore, as the lightning serpent dashed forward wildly, its might became more terrifying. In the blink of an eye, it had exploded in size many times over with dreadful power. Who knew how much stronger it was than those two Curved Horn Creatures?
"It looks like you're Light Guardians, ultimate existences of the second-grade!"
Merlin stared at the lightning serpent of overbearing might. Compared to most ultimate existences who had controlled the power of the natural order, second-grade ultimate existences were much, much stronger. Furthermore, the power of the natural order was more concentrated. Each strand would contain unparalleled power, capable to easily wiping out innumerable dimensions.
Merlin drew in a deep breath, and shut his eyes lightly.
"Boom."
A thunderous crash sounded, weighing heavily on everyone's heart, too unpleasant to bear.
As for Merlin, he had now transformed into a giant golden light. The black robe he wore was somehow glistening with golden rays, emitting a majestic and terrifying force!
That deafening crash earlier was due to Merlin using his hand in a direct, ruthless grip. That giant lightning serpent seemed to possess consciousness, snarling ferociously, yet it was unable to escape from Merlin's golden grasp.
"Shatter!"
With a loud cry, the golden light grew blinding, and pure energy exploded instantly. The power of the natural order in the lightning serpent was smashed and scattered. Upon encountering the golden light, it rapidly melted like snow under a blazing sun.
"What? This… This is…"
Laerin's face changed quickly as he watched the giant golden light. He could not be more shocked than he already was. Even though he was a second-grade ultimate existence, he was still stunned.
"The Vestigial Tribe's ultimate weapon, rumored to be their peak power, an unrivaled weapon that could match the ancient Thirty-six Emperors – the Golden Ray Armor!"
"So the legends were true…"
Sirin and Hayrin were second-grade ultimate existences as well. When they spotted Merlin's Golden Ray Armor, they immediately recognized that this was the Vestigial Tribe's legendary Golden Ray Armor.
Although the Golden Ray Armor was so few it could be counted on one hand, the Great Light Honorable Lord had controlled two of the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension and gained many of their treasures.
Although they had not obtained any of the Vestigial Tribe's three mighty armors, they had received detailed data about those armors. Naturally, as an unrivaled weapon that could contend against the ancient Thirty-six Emperors, the Golden Ray Armor was most prioritized by the Great Light Honorable Lord.
Although it was said that the Golden Ray Armor could not be utilized without the Vestigial Tribe's Brain of Life, the Great Light Honorable Lord was not concerned, still searching everywhere for the armor.
His main objective in looking for the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension was to obtain the Golden Ray Armor. In the end, the Vestigial Tribe was destroyed by the Thirty-six Emperors. If the Golden Ray Armor existed, it was surely placed in a confinement dimension.
Laerin and the rest were somewhat speechless. They did not think that the Golden Ray Armor the Great Light Honorable Lord had been dreaming of would show up here. Moreover, it was more astounding that someone could use the Golden Ray Armor.
"You're the Vestigial Tribe? No, the Vestigial Tribe's body has a unique composition. Anyone with the Vestigial Tribe's blood couldn't gain any power from the Void Zone. Although your power isn't that strong, it's close to an ultimate existence. You can't be from the Vestigial Tribe. However, if not, how can you use the Golden Ray Armor?"
Laerin was completely perplexed but Hayrin and Sirin behind him had turned mad with desire. Merlin was not the Vestigial Tribe but could activate the Golden Ray Armor. If they could get it, would they still need to obey the Great Light Honorable Lord's orders?
They could even use the Golden Ray Armor to kill the Great Light Honorable Lord in one blow, becoming the new ruler of the Great Light Region!
Therefore, Hayrin and Sirin did not give Merlin a chance to recover his breath, striking instantly. It was a full-force attack. The Void Zone's power of the natural order was intense to the extreme, slightly even more fearsome than the origin of the natural order which Flarite had attracted.
Nonetheless, they were blinded by greed, forgetting that Merlin had the Golden Ray Armor. How could they compare to him?
"Gravitational field!"
Invisible energy fluctuations emerged from Merlin, enveloping Laerin and the rest. Their bodies instantly turned sluggish as if there was endless pressure coming from all sides.
Nonetheless, the gravitational field could only affect them slightly. Merlin knew that without unleashing the annihilation function, he could not handle the three of them.
Therefore, the golden giant waved both hands. An unseen energy that made everyone trembled swiftly extended outward.
"Annihilation function!"
Back then, the Atlan Dimension Core had been largely consumed to activate the annihilation function once. This used up too much energy but this was because Merlin was simply relying on a program to control the Golden Ray Armor, thus unable to unleash its full power.
Otherwise, the true strength of the Golden Ray Armor was on par with the Thirty-six Emperors. The annihilation function was meant for existences like the Thirty-six Emperors. Even they would have to avoid it.
If the Golden Ray Armor was at full power, just the gravitational field could easily crush second-grade ultimate existences. As for third-grade ultimate existences, the Golden Ray Armor would not need to resort to annihilation either.
However, Merlin was not truly from the Vestigial Tribe and did not have the Brain of Life. He could not wield the full power of the Golden Ray Armor, so he could only unleash its most frightening power – the annihilation function!
The overwhelming annihilation function spread soundlessly toward Laerin and the rest. Everything that it touched – any form of energy was disintegrated, including Sirin and Hayrin's strongest attack. Even the natural order which filled the space, after encountering the annihilation function, was silently broken down and dispersed.
At this point, those three had sensed the unseen hazard. How could they not understand? The true threat was Merlin who looked as if he was not an ultimate existence. He was the one who had killed the two Light Envoys.
Currently, even these three formidable Light Guardians, second-grade ultimate existences, were faced with the death threat!
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle."
Three soft hisses – the power of the natural order covering the three Light Guardians could not halt the annihilation function at all. In an instant, they were reduced to ashes without even time to plead for their lives.
"Don't let their treasures go to waste!"
Merlin reached out and grabbed their rings just in time. He inspected with his Mind Power. As expected, they contained treasures such as the Aurora warship. Merlin had acted in time, not letting the annihilation function destroy these treasures.
Chapter 870: Departure I
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Dead?"
Wizard Augustus and Ceci flew over. Although they were ultimate existences, they could not interfere in that previous battle. Currently, they were no longer uninformed creatures who had only stayed in one territory. They knew that ultimate existences were divided into a few grades, and the disparity between each grade was like an insurmountable moat!
Those three foreign members were Light Guardians of the Great Light Region, having reached the ultimate second-grade. In particular, Laerin, who could control lightning was the top contender. Even so, in front of Merlin, they could not withstand one blow.
Especially that mysterious power that Merlin had finally unleashed, which destroyed everything in its path, easily slaying the three Light Guardians. They did not even have the chance to flee. How terrifying!
Augustus gave Merlin a complicated look. The present Merlin had truly grown to a stage none of them could have imagined. In not just the Spell Caster civilization but even the entire region, he was undoubtedly the strongest person among the countless surrounding civilization.
Nonetheless, Augustus was still somewhat worried. From what the two Curved Horn Creatures had said, they learned that the Great Light Region was not that simple. Not only were there seventy-two Light Envoys and eighteen Light Guardians but the strongest of them was also the Great Light Honorable Lord who was the ruler of the Great Light Region, a supreme contender who was the ultimate third-grade.
This time, for him to send three Light Guardians, it meant that the Great Light Honorable Lord had taken notice. Now that the three Light Guardians were dead, there was no doubt that the Great Light Honorable Lord would be furious.
Next time, it might not be Light Guardians who would visit the Spell Caster civilization but the Great Light Honorable Lord himself. Before such a being, the entire Spell Caster civilization could be completely annihilated at his single thought.
Even the Atlan civilization, if it had not encountered the Spell Caster civilization but a tyrannical force like the Great Light Region instead – one Light Guardian could easily sweep over the entire Atlan civilization. The Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension was of no use.
"Merlin, we need to properly discuss about Great Light Honorable Lord. This won't do. Let's move away. Now that the Spell Caster civilization has you, in addition to seizing countless dimensions of the God Alliance, we've created many powerful Wizards. We can move away with no trouble."
Augustus gritted his teeth and gave his opinion, which was to relocate to preserve the civilization. In truth, it was not like this was without precedent.
The Giant Tribe had relocated from afar. Back then, they were called the Titan Tribe, a powerful civilization who could jointly kill Black Star Warriors. However, due to the Vestigial Tribe, they had moved a long way, finally reaching this region.
However, each relocation might cause the destruction of a civilization. The Giant Tribe's decline to their present state was largely linked to their relocation.
The initially flourishing Titan Tribe could fall to such a stage in just one relocation, let alone the Spell Caster civilization. Other than Merlin, the general strength of the Spell Caster civilization was not that great.
There were so many dangers in the Void Zone. Without finding a suitable place for the Spell Caster civilization, the entire civilization would fall into ruins. Thus, they must not move except as a final resort.
"There's no need for such a big fuss. Wizard Augustus, Wizard Ceci, I'll stay on in the Spell Caster civilization for some time to make arrangements. Thereafter, there's no need to wait for the Great Light Honorable Lord's arrival. I'll look him up myself and resolve our worry!"
"You'll look for the Great Light Honorable Lord?"
Augustus and Ceci were flabbergasted. Although Merlin had exhibited power that was far greater than second-grade ultimate existences, they were unassured that he could deal with the Great Light Honorable Lord. Moreover, Merlin would have to travel a long distance to strike into the Great Light Region. This was very risky. One mistake, and Merlin might die.
"Don't worry. Of course, I have some assurance!"
Merlin did not explain further. He was already ready to leave the Spell Caster civilization but before that, there were many matters to settle.
…
After three months, the Spell Caster civilization sent out invitations to the Tree Tribe, the Avian Tribe, the Giant Tribe, and almost every powerful foreign civilization nearby. Using Merlin's name, all ultimate existences from the surrounding civilizations were invited to the Spell Caster civilization to discuss something significant.
This was a primary concern for countless civilizations nearby. In so many years, the God Alliance was the strongest force. The eight god organizations had suppressed many civilizations until they could barely breathe.
However, even such an overbearing force was destroyed by Merlin alone. Currently, the Spell Caster civilization had flourished to an extreme.
Furthermore, news had spread that even some distant foreign members had died in Merlin's hands, especially the Light Envoys and Light Guardians from the Great Light Region. Some ultimate existences of other civilizations had used various means to learn specific details.
Of course, this was what the Spell Caster civilization had permitted. The intentional news spread was Merlin's final arrangement. Naturally, he could not leave the Spell Caster civilization just like that. He had practically become a symbol of the Spell Caster civilization, especially as more time passed, and those within the Spell Caster civilization who accepted and became Mind Power Masters had increased in numbers. Merlin had become an emblem of these Mind Power Masters.
Under such circumstances, it was not easy for Merlin to leave. He had to prepare everything.
No one from the surrounding foreign civilizations turned down the invitation because it was an invitation from the number one figure – Wizard Merlin!
Therefore, contenders from each civilization had gathered in Glory City. Despite being unable to detect the natural order in Glory City, these ultimate existences were not that worried.
With Merlin's abilities, he would not need to lure them into Glory City to easily wipe them out. Thus, they entered Glory City gladly and calmly, using this opportunity to experience the uniqueness of Glory City.
In the largest dimension of Glory City, Merlin finally showed up. This time, everyone he had invited was an ultimate existence – genuine rulers from the surrounding civilizations.
"Everyone, I believe you know about the Great Light Region. Our territory is too small, and the Void Zone is too big. Just the Great Light Region alone is stronger than us, who knows by how much. Therefore, I suggest we form an alliance!"
Merlin's purpose in gathering so many foreign civilizations for discussion was to establish an alliance, unifying the entire territory as one. Even if it was a loose alliance, it was better than going solo. In the face of danger, there would only be one or two civilizations to put up a fight.
If they truly encountered a formidable force, a civilization's solitary strength in this territory could not hold up at all.
Augustus and Ceci were not surprised. Before this, Merlin had explained this clearly to them. Forming an alliance was the best plan for now. Of course, there was a better plan – for the Spell Caster civilization to vanquish all foreign civilizations and unify the entire territory.
With Merlin's abilities, of course, he could do this. Nonetheless, it would not be that functional for the Spell Caster civilization. It might even be pointless. After all, the Spell Caster civilization had sufficient living space now, even having excess. Just the God Alliance's dimensions contained much more space than the previous Spell Caster civilization.
No matter how many dimensions one had, one would need enough life forms to occupy them. Nonetheless, the Spell Caster civilization had only set foot in the Void Zone for merely three thousand years or so, before producing a Wizard like Merlin who was immeasurable by ordinary standards. Other than Merlin, the general Spell Caster civilization was not that powerful.
With such a colossal force, the Spell Caster civilization would have enough space to develop, even for a few million years. There was no need to wipe out the surrounding Spell Caster civilizations.
Moreover, even if they were wiped out, more ultimate existences would die. The overall strength of the Spell Caster civilization would not increase. Conversely, the power of this territory would be weakened.
Wizard Augustus and Ceci would not agree to an arduous and unrewarding effort like this, so they might as well form an alliance, uniting all their forces. This was the best plan.
After hearing Merlin's suggestion, the foreign civilization members below broke into fervent discussion. This development was too astonishing. They had not even gotten a whiff of it.
"Alliance – how will it be exactly? Would it be like the God Alliance?"
The Titan Giant Chronos piped up with a question.
By now, the Giant Tribe was no longer the Titan Tribe that had waged war against the Vestigial Tribe. They had declined to a civilization in a rural territory. Today, there were merely two ultimate existences. Perhaps they were considered formidable in this region but in the entire Void Zone, they were nothing much.
The Titan Giant's question was one that everyone was most concerned about. If they became like the God Alliance, there was no difference – alliance or not. Back then, the eight god organizations of the God Alliance, thanks to separate interests, were unable to ultimately expand their influence.
Merlin shook his head. "Of course, it'd be different. The God Alliance was too disorganized. What we need is an alliance that can quickly gather power to counter any danger. Thus, a mighty civilization must take the lead. I suggest that the Spell Caster civilization does so. If we encounter any danger, the Spell Caster civilization can command all civilizations to participate with their greatest effort!"
Naturally, for Merlin to form an alliance, he wanted to fight for the Spell Caster civilization's benefit.
Merlin's meaning was evident. He wanted the surrounding civilization to acknowledge the Spell Caster civilization's position, and even follow their commands.
The advantage was that they did not have to worry the Spell Caster civilization would swallow them up. Plus, if they met an external threat, they would not have to resist by themselves, and could instead, seek assistance from the alliance.
In truth, there were many civilizations, especially the Giant Tribe, the Tree Tribe, and others that were relatively stronger, who were unwilling to form such an alliance with the Spell Casters taking the lead.
However, Merlin was so powerful now that they could not contend against him by far. Thus, after going through some specifics, they finally agreed to establish an alliance with the Spell Caster civilization as their head.
This alliance would have Glory City as its core, called the Glory Alliance!
Chapter 871: Departure II
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Finally, the Glory Alliance was established. Thus, Merlin retrieved some information regarding the different levels of ultimate existences which he had obtained from the Light Guardians as well as some of their personal experiences.
This was precious information that many of the ultimate existences could only dream of obtaining. Merlin shared the information with every ultimate existence in the Glory Alliance. Therefore, even those who were slightly disgruntled were appeased by this lode of information. This was definitely worth the price they had to pay.
Once the Glory Alliance was stable, Merlin moved the Glorious Land and placed it next to Glory City. Among them, the Wilson clan was placed in Glory City. It was at this point that the Great Wizards from the Glorious Land realize how inadequate they had been before. Compared to the rest of the Spell Caster civilization, the entire Glorious Land was not even worth a mention.
What astonished them most was Merlin. Surprisingly, he was already comparable to an ultimate existence and stood at the pinnacle of the Spell Caster civilization!
Currently standing in front of the Glory Tower in Glory City, facing Merlin, was a Great Wizard dressed in a sacred golden armor and a crown. He was Bhutto XVII of the Kingdom of Blackmoon.
However, Bhutto XVII was looking grim. Ever since Merlin had relocated the Glorious Land and removed the seal over it, the Great Wizards from the Glorious Land had gradually departed from the Glorious Land to mingle with the outside world. They had realized how insignificant they were, not even the level of a Legend.
The same was true for Bhutto XVII. He was a Great Wizard in his own right, and by his brazen conquests, managed to lead the Kingdom of Blackmoon to such heights. This achievement was his life work.
"Your Majesty, what are your plans for the future?"
Merlin still used the same honorific as the past, which Bhutto XVII was extremely grateful. By now, he knew that Merlin's status was at the pinnacle of the entire Spell Caster civilization. Not only did Merlin controlled a dimension but he had also founded the Mind Power system. Merlin's achievements were far beyond the grasps of a king like him.
"Glory Lord, now that the Glorious Land has been unsealed, I finally saw the outside world. I now know that the glory of the Spell Casters had never faded but became even more dazzling than before. I've done what I can for the Glorious Land. This vast world is a challenge for me. I'll leave the Glorious Land and explore the outside world, just like what the Glory Lord did before. I'll leave as a Great Wizard and come back as a Great Legendary Wizard!"
Bhutto XVII did not falter. Once the Glorious Land was unsealed, his position as a king no longer held any significance. Hence, he quickly passed the throne to his successor, and prepared to leave the Glorious Land.
Moreover, ever since Merlin became the Glory Lord and seized control over Glory City, many of his past adventures had gradually come to light, such as his fearless exploration of numerous dangerous places while still being a Great Wizard. This became the inspiration for many other Spell Casters and Mind Power Masters. As a result, several people had followed in Merlin's footsteps and embarked on their exploration ahead of time. Bhutto XVII also wanted to do so.
"That's good, you should indeed explore and gain some experiences. Perhaps, you'll encounter a stroke of luck that helps you consolidate a Maxim and become a Legend! No matter what, you and I are close acquaintances. Here, this is a puppet that you can control. Its ability is comparable to a Legendary Wizard. However, don't abuse it. At critical moments, it can save your life. I'm also giving you the cultivation method of the complete Mind Power system. If you ultimately fail to consolidate a Maxim, you might want to consider cultivating the Mind Power system."
Merlin immediately retrieved a Legend-level puppet and transferred its control over to Bhutto XVII, and also passed the complete teaching of the Mind Power system to him.
The most precious gift was the Mind Power system. This was because only a precious few could receive personal instruction from Merlin regarding the Mind Power system.
Bhutto XVII was very grateful. He knew that it was because he kept his promise and took care of the Wilson clan. As a result, this highly respected Glory Lord, Merlin, gave him so much help.
Following that, Bhutto XVII left. However, there were still a lot of things Merlin had to prepare before leaving the Spell Caster civilization. The most important issue was the safety of the Spell Caster civilization.
At present, the Spell Caster civilization was indeed thriving but there were only two ultimate existences – Augustus and Ceci. Once Merlin had left, the Spell Caster civilization would return to its original state, and was weaker than before.
The growth period of the Spell Caster civilization was simply too short. It was extremely difficult to give birth to a new ultimate existence, and certainly not within a short period.
Therefore, Merlin must leave behind some trump cards for the Spell Caster civilization, so that if they encounter any danger, they would be able to overcome it.
After long consideration, Merlin carefully compartmentalized all his abilities, and decided to leave behind the Slothful Best. If the Slothful Beast remained in the Spell Caster civilization, it would deter many ultimate existences.
However, the old Maxim avatar would not be able to control the Slothful Beast, so Merlin first had to enhance his Maxim avatar.
The only way to do that was to give a portion of the Illusory World to his Maxim avatar. It was unrealistic to expect a Maxim avatar to consolidate his own Illusory World.
Merlin's approach was to detach a portion of his Illusory World. Not too much, just enough to control the Slothful Beast. This was a self-inflicted handicap. Detaching just a tiny portion of the Illusory World, even the tiniest speck, would have a great impact on the progress of Merlin's Illusory World.
Nevertheless, this was still the best approach. Otherwise, Merlin would not be truly assured when he left the Spell Caster civilization.
Thus, Merlin recalled his Maxim avatar and began to detach a small portion of the Illusory World. Then, he began to merge it with the Maxim avatar.
Since Merlin's Maxim avatar originated from his own body, although just a little bit less powerful, and the Illusory World was also detached from himself, there were no problems merging a small portion of the Illusory World to his Maxim avatar. Very soon, the merging was a success.
"Try it and see."
Merlin said to his Maxim avatar. The feeling was a little strange because his Maxim avatar was himself. Understandably, it was bizarre to talk to himself.
The Maxim avatar stood up. An extraordinary glint glowed in his eyes. Subsequently, an invisible fluctuation wrapped around the Slothful Beast summoned by Merlin.
"Hibernate…"
Merlin's Maxim avatar's Mind Power fluctuated incessantly, and a small portion of the Illusory World enveloped the Slothful Beast. Immediately, the Slothful Beast seemed to be affected and began to look drowsy.
"Not bad, you can control the Slothful Beast now."
Merlin heaved a breath of relief. Now that his Maxim avatar had merged with a small portion of the Illusory World, it was able to control the Slothful Beast and become the most powerful force of the Spell Caster civilization.
Moreover, if any ill were to befall, the Slothful Beast would be able to hold on for a while. In the meantime, Merlin's real person would be able to return quickly.
"It's time to leave!"
Merlin stood up, and cast one last glance at the Slothful Beast. Then, with a flash of his figure, left Glory City.
"Swish swish."
He did not alert anyone except for Wizards Augustus and Ceci. Upon receiving Merlin's message, the two of them promptly rushed outside of Glory City.
"Glory Lord, are you going to the Great Light Region alone?"
Augustus asked with a troubled expression.
"I can go alone. I still have four Aurora warships. I'm keeping one for myself and leaving one in Glory City. There are two more, so I'm giving it to each of you. If you encounter any danger, you'll be able to escape in time."
Merlin retrieved two Aurora ships from his ring. These were valuable treasures that many second-grade ultimate existences did not have. Even the three Great Light Envoys' Aurora warships were temporarily lent to them by the Great Light Honorable Lord. They would have to return it upon their return to the Great Light Region.
The two Aurora warships were extremely beneficial to Wizards Augustus and Ceci so they accepted the Aurora warships.
Merlin nodded and did not say anything. He flew directly into the Aurora warships, after which he transformed into a ray of light that quickly vanished into the Void Zone.
Augustus and Ceci looked at one another with a hopeful look. "I hope the Glory Lord succeeds."
…
In the Great Light Region, everything looked calm but the Seventy-two Light Envoys and Eighteen Light Guardians seemed intensely pressured, like something big was about to happen.
A total of fifteen Light Guardians and seventy Light Envoys had received the Great Light Honorable Lord's commands, requesting for them to return to the Great Light Dimension as soon as possible.
The Great Light Honorable Lord had never issued such an urgent command. All the Light Envoys and Light Guardians knew that something major must have happened to the Great Light Region.
Hence, the Light Envoys and Light Guardians had arrived in the Great Light Region in succession. The palace contained dozens of Light Envoys and Light Guardians but there was not a din. It was incomparably quiet, perhaps even to a frightening degree.
The crowd's eyes were transfixed on the Great Light Honorable Lord.
After a long time, the Great Light Honorable Lord finally spoke, "Three Light Guardians, Laerin, Sirin, and Hayrin, are dead!"
"Rumble."
The Great Light Honorable Lord's words attracted the commotion of the entire hall. Three Light Guardians were second-grade ultimate existences. Who would dare to provoke the Great Light Region?
Seeing the reaction of the people gathered below, the Great Light Honorable Lord nodded with satisfaction. His voice turned icy. "I've decided to lead a troop consisting of ten Light Guardians and forty Light Envoys, to avenge our three Light Guardians. Not just the assailant but his entire civilization and whatever method he used to kill the three Light Guardians. We must destroy them completely!"
Ever since they had fought over a Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimension with another large region, which was tens of thousands of years ago, there had never been such a massive-scale attack. Not only was it personally led by the Great Light Honorable Lord but he had also brought with him numerous Light Guardians and Light Envoys.
"No matter who killed the three Light Guardians, he has angered the Great Honorable Lord. Whatever civilization or force that stands behind him will suffer the consequences."
Many Light Guardians and Light Envoys knew that the Great Light Honorable Lord was downright furious, which was the most terrifying part. Wherever he was, there would be endless bloodshed!

"Swish."
In the pitch-black Void Zone, a warship glowing with flowy lights was speeding forward.
In the Aurora warship, Merlin's eyes were shut, his consciousness buried deep in the Illusory World. Ever since he had detached a small portion of the Illusory World, it had been slightly affected, so he had to mend it.
"Finally mended!"
Merlin heaved a long breath of relief. He did not expect that detaching such a small portion of the Illusory World would have such a huge impact. He had to spend a very long time to mend it completely.
Presently, the Illusory Tribe Civilization had progressed past their mother star and was beginning to conquer several other planets. Following the progress of the Illusory Tribe Civilization, the Illusory World would also gradually be perfected. Then one day, the Illusory World would not merely be a Mind Power construct but no different than a real world.
Nonetheless, this was a long, drawn-out process. Perhaps a few hundred years, a few thousand years, tens of thousands of years or even longer…
Merlin glanced at the Void Zone outside the Aurora warship. The vast and endless Void Zone seemed to stretch forever, with no end in sight. Even with the Aurora ship, it would be challenging, downright impossible, to traverse the Void Zone and visit every place.
"Stop. Have we reached the Great Light Region?"
Merlin suddenly stopped the Aurora warship. He gazed at the Void Zone outside. Numerous dimensions filtered into view. Moreover, these dimensions emitted an aura of light.
However, this aura was completely different from the gods. It was like an eternal light that glowed unwaveringly as if it would never fade.
"The Great Light Dimension where the Great Light Honorable Lord is, shines bright all the time."
Merlin retrieved the dimension maps and made a comparison. True enough, he was very near the Great Light Dimension.
"This place is indeed enormous, and far more developed than the Spell Caster civilization!"
Merlin gradually entered the Great Light Region. He noticed that each dimension emitted a dominating aura, no less than the ordinary Legends and Honored Legends, some even more powerful.
Furthermore, the life forms in these dimensions possessed auras that were significantly more powerful than those in the Spell Caster dimensions. This also meant that the number of strong contenders from just a single dimension in the Great Light Region would already outnumber the entire Spell Caster civilization.
After all, in the Spell Caster civilization's dimensions, only one Legend was born for every dozen or so dimensions. On the other hand, in the Great Light Region, Legends were not considered rare. A single dimension could give birth to multiple Legend-level existences.
Merlin thought for a moment, and continued flying toward the brightly shining dimension which contained the strongest power. That would be the Great Light Dimension where the Great Light Honorable Lord was.
Merlin stowed his Aurora warship, and his body naturally exuded a Lord's aura. In the Spell Caster civilization, a Lord was considered quite powerful and would be noticed wherever he went but in the Great Light Dimension, Lord-level existences were plentiful.
Occasionally, there would be some ultimate existences in the Great Light Dimension.
"Look, the Great Light Tower is activated. Does it mean that an ultimate existence is challenging the tower in hopes of becoming one of the Seventy-two Light Envoys?"
"The Great Light Tower usually isn't activated. There are only two possibilities if it's activated. Either someone is challenging one of the Seventy-two Light Envoys to vie for a position or they are recruiting new Light Envoys."
"It doesn't seem like anyone is challenging the Seventy-two Light Envoys. After all, each of the Seventy-two Light Envoys is a first-grade ultimate existence. No ordinary ultimate existence can compare to them."
"I heard that a while ago, two of the Seventy-two Light Envoys were killed, though I don't know why. So, they must be recruiting new Light Envoys. This is a golden opportunity."
"What? Two of the Seventy-two Light Envoys were killed? Who in the world dares to lay a hand on the Great Light Region's Light Envoys?"
Many of the foreign tribe creatures were engaged in fervent discussions. These foreign tribe creatures were not composed of just a single civilization but all kinds of different civilizations. The entire Great Light Region was comprised of countless foreign tribes.
The Great Light Honorable Lord himself was a special life form. He was alone and did not have any tribe. Therefore, when he established the Great Light Region, he had assembled countless foreign tribe creatures from countless civilization. As long as their abilities were sufficiently powerful and professed loyalty to the Great Light Honorable Lord, they would qualify as a member of the Great Light Region.
Among them, the most coveted positions belonged to the Seventy-two Light Envoys and Eighteen Light Guardians. Thus, many ultimate existences dreamt of becoming a Light Guardian. Yet, the requirements of becoming a Light Guardian was extremely rigorous, which was to achieve the level of a second-grade ultimate existence. Such a contender would surely be the topmost existence of any civilization. As a result, very few people could fulfill such requirements.
The Seventy-two Light Envoys, on the other hand, only stipulated being an ultimate existence, and could be challenged at will. If not for the fact that the Seventy-two Light Envoys needed to sign a contract with the Great Light Honorable Lord and surrender their lives and deaths in his hands, many more ultimate existences would have challenged the Seventy-two Light Envoys.
Regardless, the number of ultimate existences willing to become one of the Seventy-two Light Envoys was endless. Due to this reason, the entry barriers for the Seventy-two Light Envoys were getting more stringent. Currently, almost every single Light Envoy was a first-grade ultimate existence.
"A Light Envoy, how enviable! If you become one of the Seventy-two Light Envoys of the Great Light Region, not only will you receive guidance from the Great Light Honorable Lord but there's also a great chance of advancing to second-grade. You will also be able to enjoy the Vestigial Tribe's phenomenal 'virtual wonderland'. You can even simulate a second-grade or third-grade ultimate existence in the virtual wonderland."
"Yes, the confinement dimensions controlled by the Great Light Honorable Lord contains the Vestigial Tribe's 'virtual wonderland' treasures which drive countless ultimate existences crazy. I heard that three out of the Eighteen Light Guardians relied on the Vestigial Tribe's 'virtual wonderland' and successfully advanced to second-grade."
"The Light Envoys and Light Guardians are way too far out of our reach right now. We should think of joining the Light Sentinels, which is more realistic. The Light Sentinels are made up of the top contenders under the level of an ultimate existence. Although you won't be as powerful as an ultimate existence, you'll still be noticed by the Great Light Honorable Lord and receive many benefits."
Merlin committed all these conversations to memory. The Great Light Region was indeed very powerful that some ultimate existences would take the initiative to join them.
The Spell Caster civilization, on the other hand, had to use various forms of compensation to request assistance from a few ultimate existences. Even then, it was limited to helping the Spell Caster civilization fend-off the Atlan civilization. As for having ultimate existences join the Spell Caster civilization willingly on their own accord, it was completely impossible.
Yet, this was a feat accomplished by the Great Light Honorable Lord. The Seventy-two Light Envoys of the Great Light Region had never fallen short of manpower. Even if some Light Envoys were killed, soon enough, new ultimate existences would fill the vacancy.
The true reason was that becoming the Seventy-two Light Envoys brought all kinds of perks, especially the Vestigial Tribe's confinement dimensions which were controlled by the Great Light Honorable Lord. Inside, there were many treasures which were extremely enticing to many ultimate existences. This was the reason why numerous ultimate existences constantly desired to become one of the Seventy-two Light Envoys.
Merlin followed the crowd toward the Great Light Tower. Outside the Great Light Tower, there were indeed a few ultimate existences who were gazing at the tower with determination.
This was recruitment for new Light Envoys, so they did not have to challenge the actual Seventy-two Light Envoys. As long as they could clear the nine floors of the Great Light Tower, they would qualify to become a new member of the Seventy-two Light Envoys.
"Big brother, if the Great Light Region is recruiting new Light Envoys, does it mean that a Light Envoy was killed? Who would dare to attack a Light Envoy?"
A foreign creature with a not-so-powerful aura, about the level of an ordinary Lord, asked curiously.
"Perhaps the Light Envoy was killed when he embarked on an outside mission. After all, the Great Light Region's reputation is infamous. I've never heard of any person or force that dares to provoke the Great Light Region."
"So, are we safe here?"
"Of course, we're safe. It's forbidden to fight in the Great Light Dimension. Even if the Blueblood Tribe were to catch-up to us here, they wouldn't dare to attack."
This foreign tribe man declared confidently. Anyone who had entered the Great Light Dimension was safe. The two of them had worked hard to escape to the Great Light Region to evade the Blueblood Tribe's murderous pursuit.
In the Great Light Dimension, no one dared to fight. This was an iron-clad rule. Once upon a time, two second-grade ultimate existences who were seeking revenge fought fiercely in the Great Light Dimension, almost causing the entire Great Light Dimension to fall apart.
This infuriated the Great Light Honorable Lord. He personally killed the two second-grade ultimate existences. From then onward, no one dared to launch an attack in the Great Light Region.
"Swish swish."
Suddenly, beside these two foreign creatures, a few burly-looking foreign creatures appeared. Their bodies exuded powerful auras, one of them was even an ultimate existence.
"It's the Blueblood Tribe!"
"Hehe, don't worry, they won't dare to attack!"
Although there were numerous Blueblood Tribe members as well as an ultimate existence, what this foreign creature said was right. They did not dare to attack and could only watch irately as the two foreign creatures walked past them.
"Elder, are we just going to let them go?"
Some of the Blueblood Tribe members felt vexed.
"This is the Great Light Dimension, who would dare to attack? Are you looking for death? Even a second-grade ultimate existence wouldn't dare to attack in the Great Light Dimension."
The ultimate existence from the Blueblood Tribe appeared frustrated as well. Although he could kill those two foreign creatures easily, as they were in the Great Light Dimension, he dared not act.
This was the Great Light Honorable Lord's authority!
"It seems like this is indeed the Great Light Dimension. I can't be wrong. Hence, I might as well start the fire."
Merlin had learned that this was indeed the place where the Great Light Honorable Lord lived. Thus, he did not hold back any longer. His purpose of coming here was the Great Light Honorable Lord!
Therefore, Merlin's Mind Power immediately shrouded the entire dimension. The invisible fluctuation was felt by almost everyone in the dimension.
"Great Light Honorable Lord, come out!"
Merlin's body emitted a golden light as he stood high up in the air. Dominance rolled off his body in waves. Such a sudden disruption shocked all the foreign creatures in the dimension!
This was the first time someone dared to land on the doorstep of the Great Light Region and provoked the Great Light Honorable Lord.
