Chapter 215: Dragging Everyone In
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the Dark Magic Region, Merlin had only met Sixth-level Spell Casters such as Wizard Leo. Many official members, including Merlin, had never seen the Seventh-level Spell Casters even though they could have stayed for over a few decades in the Dark Magic Region.
Right now, Wizard Leo brought Merlin right into the Seventh-level Spell Casters’ tower.
When they entered the tower, a Spell Caster approached them and respectfully asked Wizard Leo, “Wizard Leo, what can I do for you?”
Wizard Leo took a glance at the Spell Caster, then replied in a calm tone, “Arveis, bring me to the Dark Magic Circle. I need to activate it.”
“What? Wizard Leo, you want to activate the Dark Magic Circle? You can only activate it if there’s something truly important. What are you…?”
Arveis inquired shockingly whilst he glanced at Merlin who was standing behind Wizard Leo.
Wizard Leo’s tone turned cold. His hollowed eyes stared blankly at Arveis and the red vertical eye on his forehead blinked slightly. His expression exerted a large pressure on Arveis. Even though Arveis was a Fourth-level Spell Caster, he still had to be respectful toward Wizard Leo, especially after he had witnessed the battle against Ozmu. Others would not know about this, but Arveis, as the servant of the Seventh-level Spell Caster, Wizard Robia, knew well that Wizard Leo had killed a powerful Seventh-level Spell Caster of Ozmu while disregarding the difference in levels.
Wizard Leo chased after the powerful Spell Caster and killed him only at the price of an arm. This matter had caused a mighty uproar amongst spell casters’ organizations such as the Dark Magic Region, Abyss Fort, and Fire City. It was truly phenomenal.
Hence, the higher-ups of the Dark Magic Region no longer treated Wizard Leo as a Sixth-level Spell Caster. Instead, Wizard Leo was considered a powerful Seventh-level Spell Caster, hence the true core of the Dark Magic Region!
“I naturally have important matters to discuss with them. After I activate the Dark Magic Circle, I’ll explain to the Seventh-level Spell Casters.”
Wizard Leo stated calmly. Arveis did not speak any further. Instead, he led them to the top floor of the tower. It was a large space where countless mysterious runes were densely set up all over.
This was the Dark Magic Circle that had inexhaustible uses – the Magic Circle that almost controlled the entire Dark Magic Region. Only some Spell Casters of Seventh-level and above could slightly control the Dark Magic Circle.
If any detrimental event had happened, they could activate the Dark Magic Circle. The Seventh-level Spell Casters would rush to this place once they had sensed it.
Wizard Leo looked at the Dark Magic Circle and immediately used his powerful Mind Power. Instantly, the Dark Magic Circle was activated, and the entire tower began to emit a faint light.
“Hmm? The Dark Magic Circle has been activated. What happened?”
“The Dark Magic Circle has been activated again. Did anything happen with Ozmu?”
Some Seventh-level Spell Casters were making potions whilst some were making some strange casting tools. On the other hand, some were studying their spells. However, at the same time, they set their gaze at a tall tower in the Dark Magic Region. They sensed that the Dark Magic Circle was activated once again – it was calling for all Seventh-level Spell Casters to head toward it.
“Swish!”
The first to arrive was an old man with his hair hanging down loosely, wearing a magic robe with a golden edge.
“Arveis, what’s going on? Who activated the Dark Magic Circle?”
This old man was none other than Wizard Robia, the Seventh-level Spell Caster who Arveis served. He was also the Spell Caster who chose Cecil instead of Merlin during the conference.
Arveis quickly bowed and answered respectfully, “Master Robia, Wizard Leo activated the Dark Magic Circle.”
“Leo?”
Wizard Robia placed his gaze on Wizard Leo and revealed a complicated expression. When he was about to question Wizard Leo, more Seventh-level Spell Casters flooded the place.
“What happened this time? The Dark Magic Circle has been activated again?”
The one who spoke was Wizard Heusius who wore a black robe. He was the one who led Wizard Leo and the others to deal with the people of Ozmu.
“Old fool, don’t panic. I’ll naturally tell you the reason when everyone is here.”
Wizard Leo showed a rare smile as he answered Wizard Heusius. He seemed to be close to Wizard Heusius since he would joke around with Wizard Heusius.
“Leo? What can happen to you?”
Wizard Heusius glanced at Wizard Leo from top to bottom and found nothing strange. Then, he glanced at Merlin who was standing behind Wizard Leo.
“Could it be due to this young man?”
Wizard Heusius squinted his eyes and stared at Merlin. He seemed to know what was going on.
After a moment, many unfamiliar Wizards arrived. Merlin counted the number of people and found that there were about eight of them. If he included Wizard Leo, it would be nine in total.
These Spell Casters were extraordinary; they were all strong Seventh-level Spell Casters. Normally, it was extremely difficult and rare to meet a Seventh-level Spell Caster but there were more than eight of them gathered here now.
Other than the Spell Casters who could not come or were not in the Dark Magic Region, the Seventh-level Spell Casters of the Dark Magic Region were all gathered in this space.
“Alright, everyone’s here.”
Wizard Leo’s red vertical eye scanned the crowd and found that those who could come had already arrived. Hence, he brought Merlin into the room that he had prepared a moment ago.
The Seventh-level Spell Casters found themselves a seat and Wizard Heusius took the initiative and spoke, “Wizard Leo, tell us why you’ve gathered all of us here. You should know that the Dark Magic Circle cannot be activated so easily.”
The gaze of the Spell Casters was all focused on Wizard Leo.
Wizard Leo appeared calm. He pointed at Merlin who stood behind him and revealed calmly. “I activated the Dark Magic Circle today for my student, Merlin!”
“Your student? A mere Entrance-level Spell Caster?”
“No, he should be a First-level Spell Caster. But even so, he can only become an official member of the Dark Magic Region. Is it appropriate to activate the Dark Magic Circle just for this?”
Many Seventh-level Spell Casters frowned and rather disapproved of Wizard Leo’s action.
However, these Spell Caster had always been concentrating in cultivation in their respective towers, so they did not understand Merlin’s situation. Wizard Heusius and Wizard Robia, who knew about it, both revealed a hint of shock when they heard it.
“Wizard Leo, Merlin has become a First-level Spell Caster?”
Although Wizard Heusius had his suspicion before, he was unsure of it. After seeing Wizard Leo’s attitude, his thoughts were confirmed.
“That’s right. Merlin has become a First-level Spell Caster. In addition, a Six-Elemental Spell Caster! I believe everyone here understands the significance of a Six-Elemental First-level Spell Caster.”
As soon as Wizard Leo dropped the bomb, the entire room turned silent, so much so that even the sound of a needle dropping to the ground 1 was audible. Merlin sensed that many Mind Powers were sizing him up in an unscrupulous way.
Sizing a person up directly with Mind Power was an extremely rude action. However, Merlin could only bear with it since these Spell Casters were all Seventh-level.
After many Seventh-level Spell Casters had checked on him, they then fell silent. Obviously, after the initial inspection, they found that Merlin was indeed a Six-Elemental First-level Spell Caster. In the long history of a thousand years in the Dark Magic Region, none of its members was a Six-Elemental Spell Caster.
“Merlin, you should go out first.”
Wizard Leo glimpsed at Merlin and said in a low voice.
Merlin nodded and left the room. Although he did not know what Wizard Leo wanted to discuss with the Seventh-level Spell Casters, it was undoubtedly advantageous to Merlin. If that was not the case, Wizard Leo would not drag everyone here. Wizard Leo had called so many Seventh-level Spell Casters for him.
“It seems that it’s not easy to become a Six-Elemental Spell Caster…”
Merlin mumbled to himself. He originally thought that it would be good to just sign a contract with the Dark Magic Region and become an official member of the Dark Magic Region. However, it appeared that his strength as a “Six-Elemental Spell Caster” was not something to take lightly of. It was a matter crucial enough for all Seventh-level Spell Casters to come together for a discussion.
After ensuring Merlin had left, Wizard Leo revealed a smile. The red vertical eye on his forehead was blinking slowly, appearing even stranger than usual.
“Everyone, I believe that you’ve seen enough. My student, Wizard Merlin, is indeed a Six-Elemental Spell Caster and he has shown his intention in signing a contract with the Dark Magic Region. Having such prodigy, I think we should give Merlin a reward worth of one hundred thousand contribution points.”
Wizard Leo’s words were shocking where he asked for a reward worth of one hundred thousand contribution points. It was important to know that contribution points played a major role in the Dark Magic Region. All sorts of casting tools, spells, and potions were exchanged with contribution points.
Furthermore, many Seventh-level Spell Casters did not even possess such wealth.
“Impossible. Definitely impossible! Wizard Leo, back then, Kleis only had fifty thousand contribution points. How can we reward Merlin with one hundred thousand contribution points?”
One of the Spell Casters immediately refuted. One hundred thousand contribution points were simply too frightening.
“Wizard Zoro, Kleis is only a Five-Elemental Spell Caster and the Dark Magic Region had rewarded him with fifty thousand contribution points. Is there any Six-Elemental Spell Caster in the history of the Dark Magic Region? Other than us, is there any Six-Elemental Spell Caster in Fire City, Ashes Region or Abyss Fort? Six-Elemental Spell Casters rarely appear even in large spell casters’ organizations. Why can’t we reward one hundred thousand contribution points to such a prodigy?”
Wizard Leo had expected some voices of objection, so his tone was extremely calm when he explained.
After Wizard Leo finished his words, the entire room fell into a silence again. Six-Elemental Spell Caster had never appeared in the history of the Dark Magic Region for one thousand years. It was fine if Merlin was merely an Entrance-level Spell Caster; he would never get the attention of these Seventh-level Spell Casters. However, Merlin had become a First-level Spell Caster now.
This showed that Merlin had a large potential to become a Fourth-level Spell Caster or even higher levels; the possibilities were infinite. No one could accurately predict the future of such a prodigy.
Normally, the Dark Magic Region would give a bold reward to such a prodigy and support the cultivation of these genius Spell Casters with a large number of contribution points. However, ever since the betrayal of Kleis not long ago, these Seventh-level Spell Casters were wary of Merlin.
“It’s possible to give him one hundred thousand contribution points. But, Wizard Leo, can you ensure that Wizard Merlin won’t betray the Dark Magic Region as Kleis did?”
It was Wizard Robia who pointed this out. He did not choose Merlin during the conference because he thought that Merlin could never become a First-level Spell Caster. However, Merlin had become a First-level Spell Caster in just a year; this fact made him rather embarrassed.
However, the matter he pointed out was also the worry of many Seventh-level Spell Casters. After all, Kleis had just betrayed the Dark Magic Region not long ago. He had even exchanged many spells and casting tools from the Dark Magic Region with his contribution points before turning to Ozmu. This fact had induced fury among the members of the Dark Magic Region.
After experiencing the matter with Kleis, the Seventh-level Spell Casters of the Dark Magic Region were naturally more cautious in considering this. They did not want to experience such betrayal ever again.
At this moment, everyone gathered their focus on Wizard Leo once again.
