"The situation had become so thorny that Ivan didn't know how to respond for a moment and could only let Hotter pull him aside, creating a barrier with his power to block off the outside world."
"What's the matter?"
Ivan was someone who had weathered great storms and regained most of his composure in a short while.
"The Fitzgerald Family means business this time. They've sent an arcane-level powerhouse, probably already on the way here. Doradoli definitely won't stop them at Sky Flow Valley anymore," Hotter said with a solemn expression.
In the sorcerer world, an arcane-level powerhouse naturally held an extraordinary status.
A figure of this level was not someone Ivan could influence. It would surely be up to Hotter to deal with him, but judging by his current demeanor, the newcomer was likely no ordinary character and would be difficult to handle.
"What about Tanaya?" Ivan asked, suppressing the irritation in his heart.
"She should be at her residence," replied Hotter.
