The terrifying sound of that man silenced the nearby crowd almost instantly. At that very moment, they also realized that the doors of the shopping center had all been closed.Black tendrils of fog lingered ominously everywhere, seemingly capable of transforming into deadly creatures at any moment. Some, truly terrified, couldn't contain their fear to the point of shedding tears, but they could only cover their mouths, not daring to make even the slightest sound.Just then, a gust of wind suddenly shot out, cutting through the dark smoke that had been enveloping the man. The man was immediately released, falling to the ground, coughing and wheezing, his face turning pale.Just a moment ago, he genuinely thought he was about to die!In an instant, the menacing gaze of the criminal shifted to the person who had just intervened. It was a young man with a disheveled face, looking as if he had lost hope in everything around him. At this moment, his legs were even trembling, yet he for
Upon hearing Arthur's question, the young man hesitated momentarily before nodding slightly. Arthur, observing this, couldn't help but smile, his eyes reflecting a hint of contemplation. After all, Lance was a nearly level 4 mage, and with his rare magic, he could fight above his level, possessing extraordinary abilities.The recent attack was so swift that even a seasoned criminal wouldn't have had time to react, and ordinary people would likely not have seen such an attack. However, this young man did see it.Arthur, looking into the deep, unblemished black eyes of the youth, couldn't help but smile and say, "You're looking for trouble, aren't you?"The young man, taken aback by Arthur's sudden question, seemed captivated by Arthur's eyes, unable to look away. It was the first time he had seen someone so impeccably beautiful.Blinking, the young man hesitated before nodding slightly, saying, "I'm pretty useless."Arthur shook his head suddenly, "No, you're not useless. Will you
The air in the room became unusually silent. At this moment, Ron suddenly spoke, "Arthur, I'm sure not to cause trouble."Upon hearing this, Arthur couldn't help but burst into laughter, looking at Ron, "You know that."Having said that, he stood up and looked towards Brand, "Grandfather, I request permission to return to my room."Brand waved his hand in response, saying nothing more.Arthur walked back to his room, his eyes dark.In reality, his grandfather doted on Diana a lot. That was the only reason he let Diana live, even though she was involved in the assassination attempt against him. However, she seemed unaware of her own limitations, always behaving around him as if she were a jester, and her son did the same. It all annoyed him. Despite having leads, his grandfather still didn't fully trust that Diana would betray the Hastings family for power. That was the only thing about his grandfather that Arthur found dissatisfying. However, he wasn't in a hurry. After all, e
Harry looked a bit dumbfounded as he gazed at the floating book in front of Arthur. Then, unable to hold back, he said, "It's truly magical."Arthur couldn't help but smile as he looked at the book in front of him, his expression filled with wonder. Honestly, the magic he could use was limited to basic spells like moving objects or creating a thin barrier that couldn't withstand a strong opponent's attack.It was unexpected for someone to admire his magic, especially someone who might be a magical genius. Arthur chuckled a bit and said, "Perhaps tomorrow you'll be able to do it too."Harry's eyes sparkled, "Really?"Arthur didn't elaborate on this matter and just said, "Alright, redo what you did at the shopping center."Harry nodded vigorously. He raised his hand, and a gust of wind immediately appeared in his palm. The green-tinted wind formed a small whirlwind in Harry's hand, a manifestation of pure wind element.Arthur observed for a moment before asking, "Where did you lear
Arthur flipped through another page of documents on the table, glancing towards Michael, who was seated on the side. At this moment, he seemed a bit bewildered, not turning many pages of the document on the table. His face had a slight flush, his breathing was a bit rapid, and even sweat dripped down his chin onto the table.Arthur furrowed his brow slightly and asked, "Michael, if you're not feeling well, you can take a break."Michael continued to stare blankly as if he didn't hear Arthur's voice. It was only when Arthur spoke for the third time that he seemed to awaken from a daze. His eyes, still unfocused, turned towards Arthur, and he said, "Master, today feels strange, don't you think?"Arthur couldn't help but frown. Under normal circumstances, he might have just let Michael take a break. But considering the current situation...Suddenly, Arthur stood up, looking at Michael with a serious tone. "Go back and rest."Michael nodded and stood up to leave. His steps were ste
Ten minutes later, Riert appeared in front of Arthur and Case with a cold smile, followed by his army stationed in the capital. Riert casually ran his fingers through his long hair, his fox-like eyes fixed on Case as he coldly remarked, "I'm sure you caused trouble."Case maintained a serious and icy expression, not uttering a word. His demeanor made it difficult for others to doubt him. However, Riert sneered, clearly not deceived by Case's cold facade.This time, Arthur also took notice of Riert. With long, tied-up hair and fox-like eyes, he exuded a mischievous charm. Despite his youthful face, it was hard to believe he was over thirty. In contrast to his face, his towering figure was only slightly shorter than Case's by 2cm.In Arthur's eyes, Riert's body seemed to be radiating, absorbing elemental energy from the surroundings. This phenomenon resembled the behavior of the Thlu creatures at home. Arthur furrowed his brows slightly but decided not to dwell on it.He wasn't
Riert couldn't help but glance towards Arthur, then turned his gaze to the mysterious figure in the black cloak. At this moment, Arthur nodded, speaking in a low voice, "Alright, you all retreat."The person in the black cloak bowed, took a step back, and then disappeared as if they had never been there. At this point, the dragons in the sky began to grow angry as they couldn't fly out of the city. They roared loudly and then turned their attention towards the ground.Arthur glanced at Case, who was battling a giant dragon and then looked back at Riert. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "Aren't you planning to fight?"Riert, just awakening from his thoughts, smiled, lifted his gun, and said, "Of course, we will fight. Warriors, attack!" His following words echoed so loudly that they could rival the roars of the dragons.The troops behind him immediately raised their guns and started shooting. Riert's army seemed to be exceptionally skilled at long-range shooting, with very few mis
At this moment, Harry is lying in the peculiar room that Arthur brought him to, and his entire body seems to be undergoing a transformation. His physique becomes more robust, and his face loses some of its youthfulness and frailty. Arthur walks through the door, exhales upon seeing Harry on the floor, and takes a moment. Surrounding them are scattered books and even a few shattered potion vials. However, Arthur doesn't pay much attention to these things; after all, he won't be leaving anything important in this room.Arthur strokes the ring on his hand and then proceeds to lift Harry and place him on the bed. He raises his hand, and the books immediately levitate before neatly arranging themselves. The magical residue on the floor is manipulated by Arthur, hovering in mid-air before being transferred into a new vial. The broken shards of glass find their way into the trash bin, and the room returns to normal in no time.Arthur glances at Harry, confirming that he seems relative
