Chapter 725: The Real Lord G.o.d of Light!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the dazzling palace, Bhutto XVII sat up high above. At the moment, he felt as if everything was in his grasp. Ever since the elder had brought back the sacred golden armor from the secret place, he had tried it out, allowing the Great Wizard elders of the royal family to attack with all their strength. With the protection of the sacred golden armor, the attacks of a Great Wizard were nothing.
This was a treasure even more powerful than the purple gold crown back then. With it, the royal family’s rule was more stabilized.
In this respect, Bhutto XVII had even spread this news through various channels. At once, news that the royal family had obtained a treasure more powerful than the purple gold crown spread like wildfire. It also caused a trace of apprehension in Spell Casters who harbored discontentment.
However, Bhutto XVII was afraid as well. As a supreme monarch, the one he was most frightened of was still the t.i.tular First Elder of the Spell Caster Alliance, Merlin.
The sacred golden armor was brought to him by Merlin. Merlin could even defeat the Divine Believers of the Church of Light hence the sacred golden armor was nothing to him.
Therefore, Bhutto XVII’s sole worry was only Merlin, a worry which cast his heart in a haze.
“Buzz.”
Suddenly, in the vast, empty s.p.a.ce of the main foyer, Spatial ripples appeared. Soon, a familiar figure stepped out from the s.p.a.ce, entering the main foyer.
Bhutto XVII’s heart leaped but after he saw this figure, an odd look flashed across his eyes as he said softly, “Wizard Merlin, you’ve finally returned.”
As Merlin looked at the somewhat startled Bhutto XVII, he said calmly, “That’s right, I’m finally back. Is Your Majesty happy with the sacred golden armor?”
“I am, I’m perfectly happy with it. This is even more formidable than the royal family’s purple gold crown from before. Look at the Spell Casters now. They no longer target the royal family. This is all thanks to you.”
Bhutto XVII was deeply satisfied with the sacred golden armor. Ever since he had received it, he had always worn it. Naturally, he could not be more familiar with the might of the sacred golden armor.
“What a relief that you’re pleased with it. However, I’ve lately heard that Your Majesty still have some troubles?”
Merlin asked with the hint of a smile.
Bhutto XVII’s expression changed as his heart sank even more. Of course, he knew what Merlin meant. By now, Bhutto XVII had established an enormous empire. This was the second major empire after the Molta Empire.
Thus, Bhutto XVII was anxious about the Spell Caster Alliance. Moreover, there was such a powerful Spell Caster like Merlin who was the First Elder of the Spell Caster Alliance.
Although he had all these misgivings, he could never voice them out.
Therefore, Bhutto XVII could only smile and say, “The beginning of an empire naturally involves many matters, some of which are giving me a headache. Wizard Merlin, this time you should stay in the Imperial City for a longer time, to get a proper look at the empire’s new situation.”
Bhutto XVII was confident about governing a ma.s.sive empire. Back then, under his governance, the Kingdom of Blackmoon had prospered day by day until they had encountered the more powerful Holy Light Empire.
During this period, Bhutto XVII’s various strategies had alleviated the panic caused by war. After the remaining forces of the Church of Light had vanished, the entire empire gradually headed toward a more favorable future.
Merlin shook his head. There was no longer any need for him to stay in the Glorious Land, so he said directly, “I’m going to leave this place. Perhaps I may never return, in which case I’ll have to trouble your Majesty to look after the Wilson clan and the Dark Magic Region.”
“Never return?”
Bhutto XVII was flabbergasted. Back then, Merlin had appeared so suddenly, and now he was disappearing again? Perhaps he was going to retire from society completely, just like those Great Wizards in search of the higher possibilities of Spell Casters?
Nonetheless, Bhutto XVII swiftly recovered from his surprise. To him, this was the best news, so he immediately made a decision. He said in a low voice, “Wizard Merlin, please be rest a.s.sured. The empire will dub your father, Old Wilson, as a hereditary duke, and the cities surrounding Blackwater City shall be placed under Duke Wilson, becoming the territory of the Wilson clan. As for the Dark Magic Region, the royal family will always keep an eye out for them. You’ve made an immense contribution to the Spell Caster world, which the royal family will never forget.”
Merlin nodded. With his current prestige, no one could be of threat to the Wilson clan. In addition, after he had pa.s.sed down knowledge from the Void Zone, the Wilson clan and the Dark Magic Region would grow stronger. Merlin was no longer worried.
“Your Majesty, the Spell Caster Alliance will soon dissolve. It was originally founded as a temporary measure to deal with the Church of Light. Now that I’m leaving, the Spell Caster Alliance will naturally dissolve. Your Majesty, I hope that under your leaders.h.i.+p, the Spell Caster world may once again witness the true glory of the Molta Empire’s era.”
Even so, Merlin knew that this was not possible. It was too difficult for the declined Glorious Land to s.h.i.+ne once more.
“Whoosh.”
After he spoke, Merlin did not wait for Bhutto XVII’s response, and instantly tore s.p.a.ce apart. In the blink of an eye, he vanished from the foyer as if he was never there.
Ten thousand meters in the air, Merlin’s figure appeared. His gaze swept across the scene below. This was the Glorious Land he knew so well but now he was going to leave. Furthermore, after he left this time, he was likely to never return.
Merlin was in control of the Glorious Land. His consciousness extended into Blackwater City. There, Wilson Castle was filled with people by now. Old Wilson had brought the members of the Wilson clan and returned to Blackwater City. Being able to return to Wilson Castle in Blackwater City in his later years, Old Wilson’s final wish had been fulfilled.
Fat Old Gutt was also quietly enjoying his golden years. That weird little Andie was currently in Gutt’s embrace, occasionally making a face that made Gutt laugh heartily.
Merlin’s consciousness stretched further. On a broad street, a fleet was hurrying toward Light City. In the carriage sat Charise with a head full of white hair.
She had just started out from Blackwater City. It was as if she could not wait one moment longer to return to Light City, fulfilling her last desire.
“Goodbye, Charise!”
Merlin mumbled softly. He knew that Charise did not have very long to live.
“Hmm?”
In the carriage, Charise seemed to have sensed something. She threw aside the curtains of the carriage. A cold wind invaded the carriage but she saw nothing.
“That’s strange. Why did I seem to hear a familiar voice just now?”
The carriage pulled further away, slowly approaching Light City. Charise’s heart was filled with emotion for this was her lifelong dream to return to Light City…
…
“There’s nothing left to miss.”
Through the Elemental Origin, Merlin could observe many people whom he knew, and places he had visited. Whether they were familiar or not, Merlin could see it all.
Nevertheless, at this moment, all this had nothing to do with Merlin.
The Glorious Land was Merlin’s beginning but it was surely not his end. He still had to return to the Void Zone.
“Swish.”
Without any hesitation, Merlin shot up into the sky of the Glorious Land. He could feel a seal of unparalleled power.
It even bore the obvious force of the three Arcane Wizards. It was practically impossible to break the seal from the outside to enter the Glorious Land.
However, to leave from the inside to enter the Void Zone, all one needed was strength on par with a Legend. Therefore, the multi-colored Wizard Heart appeared behind Merlin. Turbulent Magic Power surged forward, turning into a gigantic fist.
“Boom.”
An opening was created in the seal, and Merlin seized this moment to step out instantly.
…
Holy light circled the Light Dimension. The leader of many G.o.ds, the Lord G.o.d of Light who had founded a G.o.d organization by himself, was now communicating with countless believers.
“He’s appeared?”
Suddenly, the Lord G.o.d of Light seemed to notice something, and a strange look crossed his face. He had constantly monitored the Glorious Land, and would discover any changes instantly.
This time, Merlin, who had destroyed a fragment of his will, was leaving the Glorious Land at last!
“Finally, you’ve left the Glorious Land. This time, no matter who it is, they can’t save you!”
In the next moment, the colossal Lord G.o.d of Light’s body vanished instantly.
“Hum.”
When Merlin had stepped into the Void Zone once more, his entire body relaxed. As he stared at the pitch-black, icy Void Zone, he felt an incomparable sense of familiarity.
“I’m finally back.”
His time in the Glorious Land had not been long but he had gone through many experiences, which induced in him a tumultuous sensation. Back in the familiar Void Zone, he was matchlessly relaxed.
“Boom.”
However, before Merlin could rejoice, a terrifying pressure descended in the next moment. The Void Zone had no s.p.a.ce nor time but a blinding flash of light abruptly appeared.
This light gleamed brilliantly as if an imposing figure had arrived at this place. It was the familiar force of the holy light which caused Merlin to change his manner.
“The Lord G.o.d of Light?”
At once, Merlin thought about the Lord G.o.d of Light. Back when he had wiped out the Lord G.o.d of Light’s will, Merlin knew that he might be targeted by the Lord G.o.d of Light but had never expected that the Lord G.o.d of Light would be constantly monitoring the Glorious Land.
Moreover, the second the Lord G.o.d of Light had sensed that Merlin had left the Glorious Land, he had come here himself. This was the Lord G.o.d of Light’s real body. He had not left the Light Dimension for so many years, and now he had come just to kill Merlin!
Within the dazzling, dreadful light, an enormous figure emerged, exuding endless imposing force. Only the ultimate existences could disregard the s.p.a.ce and time of the Void Zone. They only needed to target a place to arrive instantly.
This was mobilizing the power of the natural order!
“Tiny, pesky Spell Caster, die!”
The Lord G.o.d of Light could not bear that a mere Spell Caster who was not even a Legend destroyed his will avatar. Therefore, he attacked with resentment. A ma.s.sive palm formed by holy light shrouded the entire Void Zone, swiping toward Merlin.
This was the ultimate existence, Lord G.o.d of Light’s fatal attack!
