"Are you telling the truth, Vifet?"
The one who spoke was Vifet, the Light of Twilight from Moxa Westland. His words caught everyone's attention.
Vifet nodded. "Yes."
Vifet wasn't the most powerful wizard in the room, but his character was recognized by all of the wizards present. Vifet wasn't a liar. He didn't mean to lie, but it was just his style.
Angor was marked by the Time Thief? Everyone was surprised, but they felt that it was reasonable.
Angor's progress in alchemy was incredible, and he was close to discovering the secrets of Mystery. Everyone knew his potential. It was only natural that the Time Thief would take him seriously.
"Wow, the Phantom Clan is going to prosper. Sunders was chosen by the Time Thief, and his first student, Sumesh, just became a truth-finder. And now there's this Angor …" Someone sighed. Sunders had a better eye for students than anyone else in the room.
The wizards were all amazed by Sunders' luck. Only Monkey, who was standing at the front of the group, didn't say anything. His expression under his mask was obviously gloomy.
Before this, he admired Angor's talent. But now, he was looking at Angor with jealousy.
Apart from some people, no one knew that Sunders had been abandoned by the Time Thief. No matter what he did, the Time Thief would never show up again.
This was why Monkey decided to hunt down the last descendant of a demon so that he could break through to the next stage.
But now, an unknown sorcerer-apprentice had been marked by the Time Thief. This made him lose his balance in an instant.
It was understandable that Sunders was marked by the Time Thief. But why couldn't he compare to an apprentice?
What did the Time Thief want to see in this apprentice?
Monkey closed his eyes. He knew he needed to adjust his emotions. But every time he thought about the Time Thief, he couldn't stop his resentment.
This was already an obsession, and it had even become his inner demon.
"What do you think about Angor's future, Mister Monkey?" It was Vifet who asked this question. He seemed to be implying something.
Suppressing the resentment in his heart, Monchi said in a calm tone, "Being marked by the Time Thief has its advantages and disadvantages. In my opinion, the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages. The pursuit of the path of truth is an indelible belief of all wizards, and it is also a belief that has been renewed over the years. Everyone who interferes with us on this path is an obstacle, and so is the Time Thief. "
Meng Qi's words caused everyone to be stunned. For them, their view of the Time Thief was more positive. Previously, they felt that Sir Monchi was the same, but they didn't expect him to have such thoughts.
Vifet smiled and said, "I think so too. Sir Monkey is right. Only the path of truth cannot be tainted."
After Vifet finished speaking, he slowly slipped into the darkness and blended into the crowd.
Monchi took a deep look at Vifet and put away his restless thoughts.
Time passed, and everyone slowly quieted down. They didn't talk about Angor, and their expressions had returned to normal. However, their minds were still in turmoil. What Angor brought to them was simply too shocking. The silence was only a temporary silence. They believed that the storm that was still brewing would bring an unimaginable impact to the wizarding world in the near future.
…
Angor, who didn't know that he had already caused a storm, was currently trying to control the floating ice orb around him.
Speaking of which, the fire was getting more and more restless as the arrival of the throne drew nearer.
Earlier, the flame mark on Angor's right ear released a large amount of fire around him. He couldn't control it, nor could he take it back. He could only let it run wild.
The only good thing was that although the flames were circling around him, they were all in a fixed trajectory. Therefore, when he placed Toby's ice orb on his shoulder, they wouldn't interfere with each other.
However, not long ago, the fire suddenly became much more lively and no longer followed a fixed path. Instead, it was randomly moving around Angor's body. The ice orb was almost burned by the fire.
The Freeze spell was still charging. If it was disturbed by the fire, there was no telling what would happen. Angor quickly tried to hold the ice orb in his arms. However, the dancing fire kept bothering him, which caused him to panic a little.
Finally, Angor managed to hold the ice orb in his arms and cast a Frost spell to isolate it from the fire.
However, after doing all this, the flames around him suddenly disappeared.
It didn't mean that the fire was returning to the mark. Instead, it was disappearing into an unknown world.
Angor reached out a hand to check his surroundings. Apart from some lingering warmth, he couldn't sense any fire element.
He looked outside and saw the flames in the sea of fire were also disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
What's going on?
Angor turned around to ask Fafnir. However, he noticed that the woman's eyes were a little empty. It seemed she was looking at the sky, or maybe she was looking at a distant world through the sky.
"The Fire Throne has reached the construction stage. It needs thousands of flames to build the throne," Fafnir suddenly spoke.
"That's why the fire is disappearing?"
Fafnir didn't say anything else. Instead, she looked at the unknown space with a yearning look.
The sea of fire was gone, but the smoke and burning smell in the air didn't go away. At this moment, in the smoke and ruins of Rasudran, two figures were slowly moving forward.
One of them was a white-haired old man wearing a wizard hat. His eyebrows reached his chest, and his beard was curly. He looked kind, but his eyes and clothes made him look like an old kid.
The other was a cold woman in a long skirt. Her body looked like a piece of glass.
They were Kanter and Samantha, who were sent to Rasudran by Monkey. The two walked in the smoke, and the smell of gunpowder in the air was very strong, which made Samantha's brows knit tightly.
"Why did the fire suddenly disappear?" Samantha asked in a low voice.
"If Angor is right," Kanter said, "the fire might have something to do with the new lord."
Judging from the current environment of Rasudran, the new lord was probably a fire-element demon. Therefore, they could only think of this new lord when it came to the abnormal movements of flames.
Samantha already had the same idea, but she needed to find Angor to confirm the details.
"What kind of person is Angor?" Samantha asked. She didn't have a chance to ask Angor on the floating ice, but she was just as curious as the others.
"He's a talented illusionist apprentice," Kanter answered casually while looking around. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he quickly ran into a ruined building. Then, in less than a few seconds, he rushed out again without stopping.
Kanter was holding some strange materials in his hand. He was also dragging the body of an imp.
These materials were all unique to the Abyss Plane, and they were hard to find in the wizarding world. Since Kanter rarely came to Demon City, he wanted to find as much as he could. As for the body of the imp, it wasn't worth much, but it could still be sold for some money.
Kanter quickly dealt with the items in his hands. He skinned and deboned the imp's body and packed all the useful materials before he continued to follow Samantha.
Samantha wasn't happy about this, but she didn't blame Kanter for anything. After all, Kanter wasn't a member of the Moonfrost Union. He came to Rasudran for his own personal gain. Many of these ruins belonged to Rasudran's shops, and there were too many rare items in them. It was reasonable for Kanter to take advantage of this opportunity to seek personal benefits.
Samantha wasn't happy about Kanter's half-hearted answer.
"If Angor is just a talented apprentice, why do we care so much about him?" Samantha sneered.
"You just want to know what's so special about him. I'm not Sunders. How am I supposed to know?" Kanter rolled his eyes. "The only thing I know is that Sunders values Angor a lot."
Again, Kanter's answer was perfunctory. But this time, Samantha didn't ask any more questions.
Sunders values Angor a lot. This was a good answer for her.
As Rein's daughter, Samantha used to live in Brute Cavern before that incident happened. She knew Sunders very well. Sunders was a cold-hearted man. It was not that he was completely heartless. It was just that his pursuit of truth was stronger and more stubborn than any other wizard. Because of this, he never cared about anything that had nothing to do with his pursuit of truth.
Angor must be special if Sunders valued him so much.
"So Angor is a Nightmare Form?" Samantha pondered in her mind. As someone who grew up with Sunders, she knew about the Nightmare Form. She also knew that one of Sunders' biggest regrets was that he once destroyed the half-passage that connected him to the Nightmare Realm in order to become a wizard. Because of this, Sunders had to find Greya and use the Twisting Protozoa to enter the Nightmare Realm.
The only thing that could make Sunders change his mind was probably the Nightmare Form.
Samantha was right. What she didn't know was that Sunders only cared about Angor's Nightmare Form at the beginning. But as Angor went on causing trouble and flipping tables, Sunders began to accept Angor as a person even though he was still cursing Angor on the surface.
Drip —
Just as Samantha was pondering, a strange sound of dripping water suddenly entered her ears.
