Chapter 721
Caster Spellbound stopped walking. He looked up at a giant blue crystal hovering over a ruined bakery. He saw Elara’s face. He felt a deep, twisting sickness in his empty stomach. He knew she was about to tell a massive lie. "For days, we told you that the Rogue Vector—the man named Caster Spellbound—was a dangerous monster," Elara’s giant face looked down at the city. "But today, we have uncovered the absolute, horrifying truth."Elara pressed a button on her control panel. The image on the giant broadcast crystals changed. It showed a magical recording. It was the recording from the intelligence room inside the Crimson Engine. It showed Elias Thorpe, the evil, scarred leader of the Crimson Alliance. And standing right next to him was Caster Spellbound. Because the recording had no sound, the people of Glassview could not hear what Caster and Elias were saying. They could not hear Caster telling Elias that he was a monster. They only saw the two men standing close together in a

The dark, wet tunnels of the sewers were far behind him. Caster Spellbound walked up the broken stone steps and stepped out into the ruined streets of Glassview. The cold rain continued to fall from the pitch-black sky. The water hit his face, washing away the mud and the dark blood, but it could not wash away the terrible exhaustion in his bones. He was just an old man in a simple, torn gray shirt. He held a broken wooden walking stick in his left hand. In his belt, he carried a single, sharp steel dagger belonging to his friend, Sikoa. But he did not look weak. His gray eyes were completely gone. In their place, two solid, brilliant, burning golden suns illuminated the dark street. The warm, heavy golden light pushed the shadows away. It pushed the freezing rain away. The raindrops actually turned into soft, glowing white steam before they could even touch his skin. He walked slowly, but every single step carried the weight of a mountain. "I am coming, Sikoa," Caster whispered

"Archmage," Thaddeus whispered. His voice was weak and wet. "They came... the men in black coats.""The Inquisition," Caster realized immediately. His jaw clenched in pure anger. "Graves.""Yes," Thaddeus coughed. "He took the rogue. He took Sikoa. He locked my students in the closet."Solon hurried over to the heavy steel closet door. He pulled a small iron pin from his pocket and picked the lock expertly. He pulled the door open. Kira and the other scholars spilled out of the closet. They were crying and shaking. Kira ran to Master Thaddeus and fell to her knees, hugging the old man. "They took her, Caster!" Kira wept, looking up at him. Her green eyes were full of tears. "Sikoa tried to fight them, but they used anti-magic bombs. Graves chained her.""Where did they take her, Kira?" Caster asked. His voice was incredibly soft, but it carried a terrifying, dangerous weight. "Graves said he was taking her to the center of the city," Kira sobbed. "He said he was taking her to the g
Chapter 718
Graves stopped. He looked at Sikoa. His cruel smile returned. "You are right," Graves agreed smoothly. "Caster Spellbound is a sentimental old fool. He cares about his friends. He cares about you."Graves turned to his Enforcers. "Leave the old man alive," Graves commanded. "Throw the scholars in the closet. But bring the rogue."The Enforcer pulled Sikoa up by her arms. They twisted her hands behind her back.Heavy, glowing black iron chains were locked tightly around Sikoa’s wrists. The chains were made of null-iron. They were freezing cold and drained her physical strength. Sikoa struggled, but she was completely trapped."Where are you taking me?" Sikoa demanded, spitting a drop of blood onto Graves’s shiny black boot.Graves looked down at his dirty boot. He sighed softly."You have very bad manners," Graves said. He looked back up at her face. "I am going to take you to the very center of the city, S

"Well, well, well," Inquisitor Graves said softly. His smooth, chilling voice echoed loudly in the white room. "Look at all the little rats hiding in the basement."Sikoa gritted her teeth. She stepped in front of Kira and Master Thaddeus. She held her daggers up, ready to fight to the death."What do you want, Graves?" Sikoa growled.Graves stopped walking. He looked at Sikoa. A cold, nasty smile stretched across his thin face. "I want the old man," Graves said simply. "I want Caster Spellbound. Where is he?""He is not here," Sikoa spat. "He is out there saving the world, while you hide in a hole with your toy soldiers."Graves’s smile vanished completely. His pale eyes turned into chips of solid ice."Do not play games with me, street trash," Graves hissed. "Caster Spellbound ruined my city. He broke General Verne’s army. He caused that green pillar of light outside. He is a terrorist, and I am going to peel

"The Ash Warden is going home," Solon realized."Yes," Caster nodded. "If that giant monster reaches the green beam, it will step into the center of the earth. It will absorb the entire planar network. The world will just... dissolve."The truck sped down the broken road. The giant shadow of the Ash Warden marched slowly in the distance, shaking the earth with every single step. Time was running out.While Caster and Solon raced toward the city, Sikoa was already running through the dark, damp sewers beneath Glassview.The rogue moved like a silent shadow. She splashed through the freezing water. Her dark leather armor was soaked. Her black eye-patch hid one eye, but her good eye was sharp and focused.The underground tunnels were shaking.Dust fell from the brick ceiling. The green light from the city above was leaking down through the iron grates. The green magic felt sick and completely wrong. It made Sikoa&r
