If that was the case, where did Toby's emotions come from? Did it come from resentment? Or something else?
As Angor pondered, Hayley's screams slowly became softer and softer until they were completely gone.
At the same time, the red light that obscured everyone's vision slowly faded away.
When the illusion completely disappeared, the scene that was reflected in front of everyone's eyes shocked them.
Hayley seemed to have fallen into a state of mindlessness. She hugged her knees with both hands and curled up into a ball without moving. Behind Hayley was a giant python with a pair of cold eyes. Its pair of dark wings fluttered slowly, giving it a strong and heavy aura.
Looking at Hayley's lifeless eyes, everyone knew that Toby won in the end.
And it looked like Toby won easily. At least, there were no external injuries on Toby's body.
Greya let out a sigh of relief. But soon, she was also shocked by what she saw. She was ready to help Toby at any time. After all, Toby was surrounded by so many people from Abstruse Alchemy Guild. No one could tell how strong Toby was right now.
But now, it seemed that Toby didn't need her help at all to take care of this group of people perfectly. If Greya was surrounded by so many people, she wouldn't be able to defeat them as easily as Toby did.
Greya felt comforted, touched, and proud at the same time.
She was the one who created Toby. How could she not be proud when Toby reached such a level? But at the same time, Greya also felt a sense of urgency when she thought about how Toby was almost as strong as her now.
If Toby became stronger than her, she wouldn't be able to train Toby properly. It seemed that she had to work harder. Her biggest goal now was to find her lost body as soon as possible.
Angor wasn't as conflicted as Greya. After all, Toby was stronger than him most of the time. Now that Toby showed such strength again, Angor was already used to it.
He was happy for Toby's improvement.
He had been troubled by Toby's resentment for a long time. Now that Toby had successfully overcome the tribulation, and his strength had greatly improved, he could finally let go of this burden.
Even though he had sensed the air that was suspected to be a new calamity, it was something that would happen in the future. Why should he bother himself with it now?
As for Sunders, he was also satisfied with Toby's progress. Toby was made by Greya, but he was not a member of Candy House. It seemed Toby preferred to follow Angor, which meant Phantom Island now had another wizard. Toby was probably stronger than Flora.
Of course, Sunders was happy to see Phantom Island getting stronger again.
Toby finally sensed the positive emotions coming from all three of them. Also, Sunders intentionally loosened the illusion nodes, which allowed Toby to sense the situation.
Toby, who had been staring at Hayley, also raised his head and looked into the distance.
Although Toby still couldn't see anything, he had already sensed their presence. Why were Angor and the others hiding nearby? That was not important to Toby. His biggest wish now was to tell his young master about his grievances.
Toby did that, but he couldn't use his huge body to "tell his grievances".
It wasn't that having a big body was bad. It was just that no matter how pitiful or sad Toby looked, it wouldn't be convincing enough.
Therefore, Toby's first priority was to return to his seabird form.
Seabird wasn't his strongest form, but it allowed Toby to do whatever he wanted in front of Angor and Greya. Toby would never abandon it. Besides, he didn't need to use energy to maintain his seabird shell, which was very comfortable for him.
However, this was Toby's first time turning into a seabird with his own consciousness. He still needed some time to get used to it.
Toby began to recall his seabird form in his mind. As he gained control over his body, his physical energy was slowly being restrained. In the real world, Toby's body was like sand, slowly dissipating.
Angor and the others knew that Toby was going back to his seabird form, so they didn't worry too much.
However, just as everyone relaxed, Hayley, who had been curled up, suddenly looked up.
Hayley's mind was already broken. However, after years of worshiping the Lord of Mystery, as well as her great potential, the Lord of Mystery was more than willing to leave a part of his power inside Hayley.
They weren't wrong. Hayley had failed, but she still had the Lord of Mystery's power inside her body. It wasn't much, but it was much more powerful than Hayley's own power, so no one noticed it immediately.
Thus, this power supported Hayley, allowing her to recover from the endless abyss of emotions.
She noticed that the red world was gone, and she also noticed the seabird in front of her. Although she didn't know why the snake-bird's body was dissipating, she realized one thing. This position and time was simply the best time to kill it!
Even though the Lord of Mystery had already asked Hayley to give up on sacrificing the seabird, she didn't give up yet. She wasn't doing this to appease her faith. Instead, she was doing this to avenge her previous setbacks.
The seabird had been toying with them since the beginning, and Hayley couldn't accept such humiliation.
She had to kill the seabird to vent her anger!
With that in mind, Hayley attacked Toby without hesitation. Her target was still the seabird's eyes!
Hayley knew that Toby had a layer of the power of gravity around him that made her burn with jealousy. So, she used all the power in her Mana Whirlpool. In any case, there were no other creatures around. After killing Toby, she would find a place to slowly recover.
A wizard's mana whirlpool contained an incredible amount of energy.
It was more than enough to break Toby's power of gravity.
Both Angor and Greya noticed that Hayley didn't try to hide her aura at all. Toby was in the middle of changing his body shape, which meant Hayley's sneak attack would succeed!
Without hesitation, Angor and Greya prepared to leave the illusion and help Toby.
However, they were still slower than Hayley. Even if they teleported, Hayley would have finished her attack.
At this critical moment, just when Hayley thought that she was about to succeed, an unforeseen event happened.
Toby was indeed unable to move, but he wasn't completely defenseless.
Toby knew that Hayley was going all out, and the sequence of gravity alone wouldn't be enough to stop her. But it didn't matter. As long as he was faster and more powerful than her, he would still be the winner!
And Toby did have one more ability he hadn't used yet.
Half of the seabird's body was gone, but its head was still there. Toby didn't move. Instead, he opened his mouth and spat out a stream of dark mist.
