"Elder Brother's Mana... had disappeared..."
Julian's words shocked Solderet so much that he felt his breath stop. This was impossible. His eldest son was the Archmage!
He looked at his sons. Their faces were as serious as a death sentence.
"Are you sure?" the man asked.
Julian and Tornian didn't answer him, but their eyes stared daggers at the others in the room. Especially the current leader of the Marigold Kingdom.
"From the fallen raven, Tornian and I extracted the last images recorded by the ravens."
Instantly, hundreds and thousands of screens appeared and filled the room. It was all made from Tornian's Magic that could transfer all of the ravens' recordings to empty space, like small windows of memories.
Those images and recordings were all from the perspective of the ravens as they observed Heinrich's fight against thousand upon t
GRRAWRRR!Old Duke maneuvered to the left while Orcenal to the right. Their symmetrical pattern was more like a dance and a work of art rather than a martial technique.Orcenal calculated his slashes so he could still provide for Old Duke's movement, but he also attacked the big and aggressive Alpha with his precise slashes. It countered the monster's attack perfectly."He's using precise patterns to counter the chaotic and aggressive Alpha... I don't understand, but it's so effective..." Harriet mumbled.[Yes. Aggressive and chaotic people are better dealt with with calm and calculated attacks. You don't need to try and predict their movement. With enough basics and experience, you can parry everything with reflex and strength.]Liam's explanation helped Harriet to understand. While at the same time, Old Duke minded his own business as he dealt with the main leader of the wyvern
Child of Light referred to Faes, children who were born with the blood of the creatures of light. But Mother of Darkness...Alameida knew that the Elves looked down on her because she was only a Fae, but then they gave her some face when they knew she was Rayleigh's mate.That didn't solve the problem, though.Even if the elderly didn't dare to give her side eyes anymore, some of the young and insensitive Elves still even blatantly mocked her because she gave birth to Rayleigh's son.Rayleigh, the Alpha of Almandine and the ultimate Creature of Darkness.But, seeing how thousands of Fairies, the Elves' contracted friends came to her for help while calling her those names... just made Alameida like them even more.Child of Light and Mother of Darkness."That's a cool title..."[Madam, they're mocking you...]&nb
As the Fairies enjoyed the fight and disturbed the Wyverns, 400 wyverns thinned faster than Harriet's calculation."This is great," she muttered.Beside her was Orcenal, who had already felt better after his little rest. He agreed that the Fairies' help was good, but the injured allies kept rising.Harriet did calculate how even Lycans could get hurt, and depending on their strength, their regeneration could be slower than the others.[Don't worry about that, Madam. In urgent cases, even the weakest Lycan could regrow their limbs faster. Even though it exhausts them more quickly.]In this case, Liam had once regrew his arm when he fought the Antarcticite Clan Leader, even though he was very sick at the time. It had something to do with adrenaline and resiliency.[But they might pass out if they get injured multiple times...]"Noted," Harr
"They are calm."Yelan and Molly straightened their back as they heard the soft and deep voice from the woman in front of them. Even Yesha stopped cradling Damian as he heard Helena.The beautiful middle-aged woman was holding Niamh in her arms. She noticed how calm they were as if they knew what was happening right now."The outside is noisy. But they're not making any tantrums..." she flatly said with her cold expression.She just made Yelan and Molly even more tense.'Why do I feel like attending to the Queen...?' Yelan thought as she felt her shoulders tightening.Helena glared at Niamh, who stared at her innocently. Then, she said, "Act more like a baby. Cry more. Don't be like your mother. Make a fuss."Niamh didn't seem like she understood, so with her innocent expression, she just tilted her head.Seeing how c
Harriet blinked at the distracted Julian. She raised her eyebrows high at the young man's side profile. Then, she asked, "What's wrong, Second Prince?"Julian didn't understand himself. His body suddenly felt hot and bothered, and his brain caught on to something particular. A scent. A delicious scent, to be exact."Something..." Julian grasped his chest. His eyebrows dipped further and further down. Then, he began to feel pain.Some of the Lycans turned to him, eyes full of questions. They felt something was wrong. But then, suddenly, Julian bolted away towards the castle."Second Prince?!" Harriet called. "What's happening?"[Maybe it's rutting.]"Huh?!" Harriet immediately asked some Lycan to go after him. "What do you mean rutting? Did he just find his mate?!"[That's possible. He's also a Lycan... and if you don't know, he's my beta
"Madam? A-are you okay?" Molly urged Helena to run more, but Helena knew her limit. She was already tired and assumed it was because of Sorcery.She stopped running, making Molly stop too. She pushed Niamh to the young girl and looked straight into her eyes. "Go."Molly shook her head. "No, Madam! I don't want to leave anyone again!""Go!" Helena snapped."But the Duchess...""She hates me. She wouldn't mind even if I die," Helena said. "Now get out of here!"Her scream made Molly flinch. She grabbed Niamh from her grandmother and started to run away.The moment Niamh landed in Molly's embrace, the baby screamed. Not only Niamh but also Damian. Both babies cried and tried to reach Helena's direction.But Molly brought them away.Helena saw them leaving, smiling. She sighed softly. "It seems that t
AWOOOOOOOOOOO! RUFF! RUFF!RUFF! RUFF!Harriet turned toward the castle. She didn't know why but she felt very anxious all of a sudden.When she heard the sound of howling and barking from the castle, she thought something wrong had happened because of the peculiar tone. So she asked Liam, who unusually didn't immediately translate it for her."What are they saying, Milord? You heard that too from the castle, right?" Harriet asked.[Yes. Madam, I am sorry.]Even Liam's tone was weird, making Harriet stop everything she was doing."What's wrong?"[Your mother.] Liam said slowly, [They Lycan, who was following the Second Prince of Hyacinth, found your mother unconscious.][They couldn't find her heartbeat.]"W-what do you mean? What happened to her?" Harriet's change in emotion
CRACKLE—"FUCK! OH—SHIT!" Heinrich growled in pain as the rocks that were burying him alive moved, sending pain to his injured body. He had already lost his energy and had somewhat accepted his destiny.He thought of those books and novels about sealed greats the protagonist accidentally encountered... they would be awakened by the lucky chosen and said, "Whomst awaken me from my slumber?"Well, surely, if sometime in the future someone found him accidentally and helped him get out of this place, he would have his first line ready."What line is good?" Heinrich muttered. "Hmmm, thy mortal hath found me, releasing me from this eternal seal of sorcery..."Heinrich's silly thoughts were due to severe dehydration and hunger. But it was also due to stress. It was not his fault since he had been trapped here for days."If these spears only sealed my mag
