"Eternal Night … Eternal Night …"
"True freedom is in the eternal night … Ha, hahahaha … I see, hahahahaha … I know now …"
Jellal covered his face with a pained expression. His heart was eroded by the magic released by Urutia, and he finally became ferocious. He let out a burst of terrifying laughter.
Seeing that Jellal was affected by her magic, Urutia's mouth curved into a smile. She retracted her magic and said in a voice that only she could hear,
"Do your best."
After saying this, she quietly turned around and left Jellal's prison.
Soon, she came outside and looked down at the prisons all over the island. After bewitching Jellal, she was no longer interested in the Paradise Tower. She also didn't care about the Order of Black Magic. In her eyes, the R System was only a toy.
But.
Just as she was about to leave the island quietly, her wrist holding the magic ball was suddenly grasped by a hand from behind.
Urutia was shocked. She almost subconsciously raised her right hand and tried to attack, but just as she raised her right hand, it was grasped together with her left hand.
Then.
She was lifted into the air like a kitten.
"You seem to have done something bad."
Maples appeared behind Urutia and lifted her up by both wrists. He lowered his head and looked at her calmly.
This girl used his name to bewitch Jellal. For a moment, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was as if he had become the scapegoat for no reason.
Although Urutia was shocked, she didn't panic completely. Without hesitation, she raised her leg and kicked back fiercely, trying to break free from the other party's control.
Dong!
However, although her kick landed accurately, she felt as if she had kicked the hardest steel. She felt a sharp pain in her foot, as if her bones had been shattered.
"Hiss …"
This made her suck in a breath of cold air. Her whole body suddenly froze. Cold sweat soaked her body in an instant, and she felt that her whole leg was numb because of the recoil.
Maples looked at her expressionlessly and said, "You are really disobedient."
While speaking.
Maples clasped Urrutia's small hands together and used one hand to grab her two slender wrists. Like holding a carrot, he lifted her up and turned her around to face him. Then, he reached out his right hand to pinch her cheeks and forcefully rubbed them a few times.
"Wu … Ah …"
Urrutia whimpered from being pinched. Her small face revealed an extremely fierce expression, revealing two delicate canine teeth. She opened her mouth and bit Maples' finger.
Maples couldn't be bothered to dodge and let her bite him. In the end, there was a similar sound as if she was about to bite on steel.
This time, Urrutia's teeth almost fell out. She couldn't help but cry out in pain.
"Ah … so hard …"
"Are you a stone man?!"
Looking at Urutia's teary expression from the pain, Maples couldn't help but laugh. He asked, "Then are you a cat? It can even bite people? "
Buzz!!
Urrutia gritted her teeth, and then a large amount of magic overflowed from her body. Although this magic wasn't at the level of an S-rank Magic Shooter, it was already quite considerable.
The surging magic turned into an ice-cold power.
"Ice Form, Freeze!"
Urrutia didn't hesitate. After discovering that physical skills were ineffective, she directly used the magic that she judged to be the most effective in this state.
Solid ice spread along her body in an instant, covering Maples' body in an instant and freezing Maples in ice.
However.
Before she could try to break free from Maples' hand, the ice that froze Maples silently broke apart and turned into delicate frost flowers one after another, scattering on the ground.
"How can this be …"
Urrutia looked at this scene and couldn't help but reveal a shocked expression. This was because the magic she released was only freezing, not scattering into the form of frost flowers!
It looked like the ice magic she released had turned into frost flowers, but in fact, it was a completely different concept. This meant that Maples had reverse-analyzed her Ice Form Magic in an instant and completely taken over her magic. At the same time, he had also completed the transformation in an instant, turning her Ice Form Magic into the form of frost flowers!
Although he didn't reveal much magic, this level of control over ice magic gave her a feeling that it was completely natural. It was far above her!
Even.
She couldn't help but have a doubt. Could her mother, Wu Luneng, reverse analyze her ice magic in an instant and rewrite it into another form?
Before Urulia could react, the astonishment in her eyes gradually turned into astonishment. She saw the ice flowers that were scattered all over the ground silently combusting. They turned into flaming flowers and eventually disappeared into the air.
"This …"
Urrutia's gaze was a little sluggish.
The form of ice had turned into the form of fire in an instant!
Even with her knowledge of magic, she had never heard of two almost completely opposite types of magic that could be transformed into each other!
"Ice turned into fire … How can this be …"
Urrutia's gaze was filled with shock. After the shock, she looked at Maples with a trace of fear. She knew that there was a world of difference between her magic realm and the man in front of her!
Even if she used the incomplete lost magic 'Arc of Time', she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to get out of this predicament. This man was far from being comparable to the Black Magic Order!
"You've finally behaved yourself."
Maples looked at Urrutia and stroked his chin, revealing a thoughtful expression. "How do you think I should deal with you?"
How should he deal with a girl who used his name to swindle others? This was a slightly difficult question. She was only twelve years old. Wouldn't it be too heavy to beat her up? Detain her and train her … No, educate her properly. To her, it wouldn't be a punishment at all. Instead, it would be a reward.
He didn't even intend to personally instruct Elusa like he did with Mavis.
Maples thought carefully and realized that for a little loli who believed in him, no matter how he dealt with her, it would be a blessing to her. It felt a little strange.
Urrutia's chest heaved up and down. She forced herself to calm down and looked at Maples. She took a deep breath and said, "I'm … a sorcerer of the Eternal Night Shrine. Even if you're very strong, you don't want to be enemies with the Eternal Night Shrine. Let me go now."
"Eternal Night Shrine …"
It would have been better if Urrutia didn't say it. Once she did, Maples felt even more strange.
Noticing Maples' gaze, Urrutia inexplicably panicked because she didn't see any signs of retreat or fear in Maples' eyes.
Obviously, the name of the Eternal Night Shrine couldn't scare him!
Maples pondered for a moment and put Urrutia down. He pointed at her and a magical rope formed from his magic power, binding her to the spot.
"That's good."
After binding Urrutia, Maples raised his finger and pointed it at her. A golden luster spread out from his fingertip and he gently moved it up, down, left, and right a few times.
The golden light rippled in the air and silently fell on Urrutia's body, fusing into her body and disappearing.
"You … What did you do to me …"
Urrutia revealed a horrified expression as she sensed the condition of her body. However, she didn't feel anything out of the ordinary. Instead, this made her reveal a little fear.
She didn't know what Maples had done to her, but this fear of the unknown was obviously stronger.
"Nothing."
Maples withdrew his finger and said, "I just left a mark on your body. If you want to remove it, have your president bring you to me."
Urrutia said in bewilderment, "A mark?"
"Yes."
Maples waved his hand and removed the shackles on Urrutia's body. He said, "No need to look for it. It's on your neck. You can go now."
Urrutia stiffened for a second. Then, she slowly raised her hand and touched her neck, but she didn't feel anything.
Whoosh! Whoosh!!!
She didn't hesitate. Although she didn't feel anything, she immediately retreated into the distance. Standing in front of Maples made her feel an extremely strong sense of danger.
She ran all the way to the edge of the Paradise Tower, jumped off the cliff, and landed on a reef by the sea. She turned her head and didn't see Maples chasing after her. Only then did she heave a sigh of relief.
However.
She didn't relax but soon became nervous again. She reached out her hand and picked up her crystal ball. She looked into the crystal ball.
Her own image was reflected in the crystal ball. When she looked carefully, she could vaguely see that there seemed to be a very small word written on the left side of her neck.
"…"
Urrutia's expression stiffened for a moment. Then, she immediately activated her magic and tried to remove the word. However, no matter how much magic she used, it couldn't be removed.
When she sensed it carefully, she could feel that the word seemed to be formed by an extremely complicated and powerful tactic. With her magic, she couldn't remove it by force.
"Damn, damn it …"
Urrutia raised her small hand and covered her neck. Her face was full of shame and anger. She looked behind her and gnashed her teeth. "Bastard Archmage. I'll remember this."
How dare he do such a thing to her. Unforgivable!
Although she didn't know anything about that person until now, she saw a symbol on the back of Maples' hand. It must be the symbol of some guild.
Maples shouldn't be a member of the Order of Black Magic. He was most likely a member of the Light Guild who happened to find the Paradise Tower.
"I'll come back and find you …"
Urrutia gritted her teeth and said. Then, she covered her neck with one hand and jumped off the reef. She landed on a small boat beside the reef and used magic to maneuver the small boat into the distance.
