In an instant, the void seemed to have turned into a pendulum, moving back and forth. The 'chair' was just a feeling, but Toby could feel that his body of consciousness was being stretched and compressed by the strange changes in the space. It was almost impossible to maintain a complete body.
"What's going on?" Toby was trying to maintain his balance, but his consciousness was filled with doubts.
He had never encountered such a situation in the House of Heart in his hundred or so experiences.
Higan was not far away. How did this happen? What was going on?
While Toby was anxious, Grudge was very excited. It continued to release its negative emotions, urging the void to change even more.
The terrifying and unknown changes lasted for an unknown period of time. When Toby felt that his body of consciousness was about to be torn into pieces, the chair in the void finally calmed down.
When Toby felt that he had survived a disaster, the space in front of him suddenly changed.
At first, it seemed like the space was overlapping, but slowly, the overlapping started to bend until it became distorted. Countless distorted space gaps formed a small vortex.
As soon as the small vortex appeared, it began to expand rapidly. In a short moment, it had grown to the size of the largest vortex from before.
Toby looked at the vortex in front of him with a cautious expression. Toby's experience was still useful when a snake-bird came out of the largest vortex. However, the size of the vortex was comparable to the previous one. Any monster that came out of it would not be easy for Toby to deal with.
More importantly, the vortex was right in front of the destination. This meant that even if Toby went around it, he would not be able to shake it off. If there were monsters inside, he would have to face them head-on.
Facing a calamity in the real world was more complicated than facing it in the House of Heart.
Because of this, Toby felt a little uneasy.
However, Toby quickly suppressed the uneasiness. Although the vortex in front of him had never appeared in the House of Heart, the power it possessed now was incomparable to that of the House of Heart.
He had obtained the complete power of a griffin from a group of monsters. After killing the snake-bird, he had vaguely gained control of this mental space. Under all kinds of favorable conditions, Toby was confident that he could get rid of any obstacle that stood in his way!
Toby's confidence came from his confidence. However, this confidence only lasted for a short time because not long after the vortex appeared, an unprecedented terrifying aura began to slowly leak out.
At that moment, the outside world was in an uproar because of this.
After Toby killed the serpent bird, the Will of Extreme Resentment had run out of options. Its expression of despair was that the frequency of the surging black fog outside was slowly decreasing.
In addition, Toby had taken control of a part of the mind space, and this was also reflected in the outside world. The black fog seemed to have been purified and began to become lighter.
Greya's gloomy heart was suddenly illuminated by a ray of sunshine.
"The black mist is fading away. Does that mean …" Greya looked into the distance. "Toby did it?"
He didn't know how to answer Greya's question. But judging from the current situation, Toby wasn't far from succeeding. This was because the black fog in the distance was not as simple as a black fog. It was a combination of jealousy and resentment, and it was also the origin of the Serpent Bird.
Once the Will of Extreme Resentment won, the black fog would grow thicker and cover a larger area. But now, the black fog was not spreading. Instead, it was fading away, which meant Toby had gained the upper hand.
"It's not over yet, but it's the final battle." Angor's eyes flashed. "And Toby isn't losing."
Greya sighed in relief. "The River of Fate still flows by Toby's side."
"So you're going to study Prophecy now?" Angor looked at Greya curiously. Apart from Prophets, most wizards rarely used the term "River of Fate".
Greya smiled at Angor. "A long, long time ago, I used to study divination spells. Back then, I learned the River of Fate. But I don't think I'm that good at divination, so I can only use 'Lucky Ravens' from time to time. That's all I can do."
Greya Kuang belonged to the "River of Fate" school, while the "Lucky Ravens" belonged to the "Inquiring Bell" school. This was nothing special. Among all Divination spells, "Lucky Ravens" were relatively easy to learn. Similar to detection cantrips, a Divination spell required the caster to gather and analyze the current environment, background, and known information to come up with a better answer. It was different from Prophecy spells in nature.
"Why don't you use Lucky Ravens and see if Toby succeeds?" Angor suggested.
Greya remained silent for a moment. "I don't —" But before she could finish her sentence, something unexpected happened.
The black mist in the distance began to surge again, and the area was expanding. Greya could explain it as "Toby won't be able to win all the time in the Final Battle." However, the mist was not just moving. It was regaining its original color. And it wasn't over yet.
When Toby's "Counter" began, the black mist around him began to release air waves that contained all kinds of negative emotions, such as extreme resentment. However, just now, the air waves that rippled out from the black fog gave him a feeling that he had never felt before.
In addition to the basic jealousy and resentment, there was a deeper emotion. They could not identify the specific reason for the emotion, but it was like the undersea currents hidden in the sea of jealousy. It was deep but could not be ignored, and it carried a heaviness and horror that made people tremble in fear.
Greya frowned. "What's going on? What's going on?"
What's going on? That was what Toby was wondering as well.
He didn't understand what was going on either. A terrifying aura was released from the vortex. The aura was not directly related to one's power level, but for now, it could be considered as pressure. The aura was even stronger than Angor's aura.
It meant the aura was probably stronger than a level-1 wizard. In other words, the monster behind the vortex was probably stronger than the serpent bird.
Toby didn't understand how Extreme Resentment could summon such a powerful monster. However, what puzzled it even more was that Toby could not sense the emotional ripples emanating from the magical creature at all.
It was a deeper, more resentful emotion.
While Toby was still in a daze, the vortex in front of him began to tremble. It seemed the monster inside was getting restless and was about to come out.
Extreme Resentment, who was standing at the end, also became excited. It repeatedly expressed its jealousy and hatred with an agitated expression that was close to dancing with joy.
"Yes! Come out! Come out! Kill it! Kill that stinking seabird! "
