Xiehed's eyes nearly bulged out of his skull. Was he not afraid of inciting the wrath of the Potter Family by killing Iron Leyce? If he didn't kill Iron Leyce, did his teacher mean for him to die out in the wild, to abandon him? What had occurred to make his teacher give up on such a powerful Great Magician as him?
"I understand now, but teacher, what has happened?" Xiehed hastily questioned.
"The Giant Dragons are swarming in droves, and the Archmage has had a run-in with them over the East Sea using arcane magic, with neither side emerging victorious. We are in the wrong here. Whoever caused this will offer their own life to appease the rage of the dragons. If you cannot do it, I will use your life to calm the wrath of the Archmage." The voice on the other side was not merely impatient now, but downright icy.
A shudder ran through Xiehed, who hurriedly replied, "Rest assured, teacher, I can handle this."
