The victor had been decided.
When Grimm walked out of the arena with the Inferno Tyrant, he was greeted by the overjoyed Wizard Nunnally, as well as Angus and the others who were watching with smiles on their faces.
Behind them, the Magi from the Gretto Family were all glaring at them, their faces filled with murderous intent.
Both parties' gazes were focused on Grimm, who was full of joy, and the terrifying fiery figure. No one paid any attention to the dazed Runo Puppet Master who was standing beside Grimm.
"Alright, the victor of today's arcane competition has been decided." The silver-robed Magus stood up to be the peacemaker, "The shop at 167 Champs-Elysees Street will continue to be operated by the Byron Family. The Gretto Family must hand over the fine for losing the challenge to the Byron Family within three days. If the fine is not paid within the time limit, the Gretto Family will be expelled from the Silver Alliance, and their current properties will be confiscated and auctioned off. I hope you won't have to do that. Alright, the event here is over. You can all leave now. "
With that, the silver-robed Magus glanced at Grimm and his magic puppet before leaving without another word.
"Let's go! Let's go back and celebrate! " Even a sinister guy like Wizard Angus couldn't help but smile like a blossoming flower. The Byron Family's importance in this competition was self-evident.
Escorting Grimm, the Byron Family's Magi happily returned to the family's encampment.
In the arena, Wizard Nunnally sneered at the ashen-faced bald man, "Nagu, we can settle our grudges in the future, but I hope to see the resources you promised as soon as possible. You know very well where I am, and I'll be waiting for your news! "
Looking at Nunnally, who turned around and left after she finished speaking, the leader of the Gretto Family was so enraged that the muscles on his body tightened, producing popping sounds that sounded like popcorn popping.
"Nunnally, you bastard, I want you dead … I'll make sure you die a horrible death …"
However, no matter how angry this Grade 2 Magus was, he still did not dare to start a fight here. Although the Arcane Sorcerers of the Silver Alliance did not have much combat power, the sheer number of Voodoo Puppets they had was terrifying.
If he were to attack Na Nali, not only would he not be able to escape from this Sky City, even his family would be destroyed.
Fortunately, the Gretto Family had already won two of the previous Arcane Competitions. Although they were both in remote areas of the Outer Ring and were not as prosperous as the Avenue of Champagne, it was enough for the family to establish themselves here for the time being. But when he thought about the large amount of resources he would have to pay to the Byron Family in three days, Gu couldn't help but feel his heart ache once more.
…
The battle in the arena made Grimm famous in the Outer Ring District 12 overnight.
The entire Outer Ring was like a huge clock, and the Champs Elysees where the Byron family was located was located at the position of twelve o 'clock, so it was named after the twelfth district. There were ten to twenty shops of various sizes here, and each of them had the backing of a famous wizard family on the continent.
Hence, it was all thanks to the Inferno Tyrant, the Inferno Tyrant, that they could remember Grimm's name!
To be honest, outsiders like Grimm were the most sought after in the Outer Ring. The price of hiring them was much cheaper than hiring those Arcane Masters. Although their combat power was uneven, if they made the right bet, they could immediately revive their family and continue to exist in Sky City.
Since Grimm was able to represent the Byron Family this time, perhaps he could represent his family next time. Hence, every Outer Ring Sorcerer family was willing to befriend a Quasi-Arcane Sorcerer with a bright future ahead of time.
… …
Deep into the night.
When the dark curtain of night enveloped the entire Sky City, the Byron Family's base was once again brightly lit.
A small celebratory banquet was held in the hall on the first floor of the base. All seventeen merchant companies in District 12 had sent their representatives, and everyone gathered together to celebrate the Byron Family's victory.
As the Arcane Competitions ended, most of the seventeen merchant companies in District 12 were lucky enough to survive. However, there were still five new families that replaced the original wizard families. Hence, using this opportunity, in the Byron Family's secret rooms and banquets, countless conspiracies and transactions were carried out in private.
The old families needed to reach new agreements, and the new families needed to make appropriate concessions or show off their military might if they wanted to enter their circle. As for the weaker families, if they wanted to protect themselves, they could only try to form alliances …
Hence, in this kind of banquet, the representatives of every Sorcerer family and the resident Sorcerers were very busy. They were busy entering one secret room after another, meeting with one authority after another. Those who could easily stay at the banquet were mostly new Sorcerers that had been sent by their families to Sky City to learn tactics and improve their understanding.
The banquet hall was not very big, but the decorations had its own unique style.
The floor and walls were all decorated with Luminous Rocks. Even without any lighting, the hall was still bright at night.
More than ten dining tables were placed in a corner of the hall, gold and silver utensils filling the tables. As for the dishes on the table, there were pan-fried veal kidneys, quail stuffed with spices and fruits, pastry pancakes made with lark and partridge meat, beef cooked with wine and onions, dormice soaked in honey …
The ones in charge of serving the Sorcerers in the hall were beautiful women of different races with unique appearances. Among them, there was a slender and lithe figure, a delicate face, grey cat ears on the top of her head, and a furry tail on her back. There was a tall and strong figure, with a perky chest and perky buttocks. There was a small demonic horn on her head, and her body was fair and sexy. She had bat wings on her back, a long bone tail, and hoofed feet.
Apart from them, there was also a female elf with a slender body and long pointed ears. There was also a tiger girl with a strong figure, a little fur on the side of her face, and a somewhat tyrannical and rebellious temperament. Grimm even saw a dwarf girl who was only half a metre tall among these beauties …
Of course, there was no exception. Under their thin clothes, Grimm found small rune brands on their shoulders. In the middle of these rune brands was the Byron family's emblem, with a circle of small runes around it for sealing, positioning, and other unknown functions.
Grimm had long heard that the Sorcerer World was a top-level plane that had enslaved thousands of secondary planes, so it had all kinds of resources, and the slaves they captured were from countless races.
When he was an apprentice, he naturally did not have the chance to come into contact with these high-level "resources". But now, as he slowly grew and became an upper-class Sorcerer, these resources that were usually only available to high-grade Sorcerers began to appear in front of him.
If these beauties were placed in a different secondary plane, they might be revered and noble princesses or queens of some enslaved race. However, in this brightly lit Sorcerer family banquet, they were slaves and maids who could do whatever they wanted.
In the banquet hall, some young wizards and witches surrounded them and commented on their appearances. Some even took off their clothes from time to time to personally examine them, looking very interested.
As a young and handsome Sorcerer, Grimm was especially liked by the young female Sorcerers. Three to five young witches from different clans surrounded him in the middle, talking to him with hot words.
It had to be said that after becoming a Sorcerer, the moral restrictions that bound these young men and women had almost disappeared. As the up-and-coming talents carefully cultivated by the family, their future was bright. Therefore, before the long and tedious path of cultivation as a Sorcerer, they would rather enjoy life, enjoy power, enjoy good food, and enjoy sex!
They were still young and did not have the qualifications to enter the upper ranks of their families, so they had a lot of time and energy to pursue pleasure. Therefore, according to Grimm's rumors, the private lives of all young Sorcerers were equally decadent and extravagant. Every young wizard and witch kept countless handsome men and beautiful women in their private houses for their own enjoyment.
However, those were only their objects of pleasure. If they really wanted to find a suitable partner, they could only choose from the opposite sex Sorcerers of the same rank.
As long as two young Sorcerers liked each other, they could get together in minutes. Therefore, when it came to pleasure and sex, the boldness and straightforwardness of these female Sorcerers was enough to make Grimm's thousand-year-old house feel helpless.
However, in the banquet hall, there were other small groups of people.
One of them was the circle of Bloodline Sorcerers, which was dominated by bloodlines.
Those who could set foot in this banquet hall were the best among the Bloodline Sorcerers. Their characteristic was the rich aura of their bloodlines, which were very obvious signs of atavism.
The Senos family, which ran the Black Rose Trading Company, was a family of Bloodline Sorcerers. Their inherited bloodline was the Shadow Snake, a terrifying shadow creature that could reach grade 6.
Therefore, all the Sorcerers trained by the Senos family had a black snake head on their head, regardless of whether they were male or female. Their bodies were also faintly blurred, as if they were constantly being protected and enveloped by darkness magic.
Obviously, these Bloodline Sorcerers did not like to have close contact with Sorcerers of other races. When they chose a spouse or lover, they only considered the purity of the other party's bloodline and strength. As for appearance and personality, they were just secondary attributes.
Apart from the group of Bloodline Sorcerers with snake heads, there was also a group of mutated Sorcerers in the hall whose bodies had been deeply modified. They were either beastified, undead, or mechanized. Every Sorcerer's body had more or less been modified by witchcraft.
