2024-03-13 01:05:55Zorka reluctantly left the children. Before leaving, he intentionally inscribed a protective rune on the empty building. As long as the children stayed within, they would be safe from the attacks of the corpse-eating bird monsters.
He roamed the city in search of Inigo, recalling the market. Zorka intentionally wandered through the market to find Inigo. He found the boy in an alley in conversation with someone behind a building wall.From a distance, it seemed Inigo was talking to an adult, as he conversed while tilting his head upward. After a few minutes, Zorka witnessed Inigo being assaulted by the adult wearing a market guard uniform.Zorka reacted immediately, but Inigo shouted, "Don't come closer! Don't interfere with my affairs, and don't use magic, or you'll be in danger!"Inigo's warning made the guard turn towards Zorka's direction. Zorka realized it and quickly hid behind the wall at the other end of the alley."You cursed kid

"Drugs? Is that guard using drugs?" Zorka asked, surprised that Inigo would take on such a risky job.Inigo looked down, feeling ashamed of his decision. Honestly, he hated doing this kind of work. But with five kids to support, he needed the money. He was willing to do any job as long as it meant his kids could thrive."You're not just risking your life, but you're putting those little kids in danger, Inigo!" Zorka exclaimed angrily.Inigo remained silent, not offering any response. Making excuses would only complicate things further."I'll repeat my question! Inigo, is that market guard using drugs?" Zorka asked, repeating his question.This time, Inigo looked directly into Zorka's eyes and responded firmly."No, the guard is making drugs to sell. The prices are pretty high. I've made some money helping him out a few times."Smack.Zorka slapped Inigo hard."You're such an idiot!" Zorka yelled. "Can't you find a better job than selling drug materials? It's heartless to feed them wit
Zorka Slavy : Rise of the Supreme Sorcerer Uncle Burt agrees!
"If that's the case, have you ever visited an orphanage to have them taken care of by people from the foundation?""No, I would never step into an orphanage like that. Let alone entrust the children to a place like that. One of my foster children was once placed there by their parents. In the orphanage, they experienced many terrible things. The caretakers abused disobedient children with whips, punished them with confinement, deprived them of food, and other horrifying things. So, my foster child ran away because they couldn't endure the violence they faced, especially since they were under five years old.”Zorka fell silent now. But suddenly, he remembered Uncle Burt. He who lived alone, always missing his late wife. Zorka felt that Uncle Burt was actually very lonely. Especially when he asked Zorka to become his adopted child."I think I have an idea," he said, "but I have to ask first if he's willing to accept you all?”"Why ask first?" Inigo asked."I'm afraid he might reject you
Zorka Slavy : Rise of the Supreme Sorcerer The threatened children
As he returned to the city, Zorka suddenly felt a wave of energy he recognized."Azurks, are you back?" asked Zorka.A blue swirl perched on Zorka's shoulder. A cat-sized dragon nestled playfully on his shoulder.Azurks yawned widely. He squinted at Zorka."Why? Missed me?"Zorka immediately grabbed Azurks' body and slammed it. However, the dragon just floated casually while chuckling happily."Stop your talk, Azurks, that's Disgusting!”"Hey, kid. Looks like there's progress in your coin-hunting efforts?""What progress? If it weren't for Uncle Burt's help, I might have been in jail by now!" Zorka felt annoyed by Azurks' remark."How so? Didn't your herbal plants work?"Hearing that, Zorka recounted everything that had happened while Azurks was away. From his initial encounter with Uncle Burt, then meeting Inigo and his wards, to the issue of the flesh-eating bird monsters that often came at night to prey on Sylvanvale town.What surprised Azurks even more was Inigo's heterochromia e
Zorka Slavy : Rise of the Supreme Sorcerer Inigo was being tortured.
The situation in the building was really not conducive. Zorka hugged the children who were crying hysterically."Azurks, please teleport me to Uncle Burt's place! You can find out where it is, right?" Azurks said."Of course, your energy trace can be a guide for me."Without waiting any longer, Azurks teleported Zorka and the five foster children of Inigo to Uncle Burt's backyard. Uncle Burt, who was gardening after Zorka left, was surprised.A dazzling blue light formed a rune. Then six figures appeared in the light. Slowly the light disappeared, and Uncle Burt fell when he realized that Zorka was among those who appeared in the blue light."Z-Zorka, how could you appear out of nowhere in that blue light?"Zorka approached Uncle Burt. Meanwhile, the five small children, their eyes swollen, all hid behind Zorka."Those kids...""These are the children I told you about, Uncle. They are Inigo's foster children," Zorka explained."My goodness, they really are still so young, they are sti
Zorka Slavy : Rise of the Supreme Sorcerer Saving Inigo
The man who had been torturing Inigo crawled, attempting to escape when Zorka's magic disappeared. However, his actions did not escape Zorka's sight.Zorka used ice magic to freeze the man's hands and feet, rendering him unable to move in a crawling position. When the man realized he had been ensnared by Zorka's magic, he cried out, begging to be released."Let me go! I beg you, I don't know what I did wrong to deserve this torture..."Zorka stared coldly at the man. It was pathetic how adults could resort to violence against children but couldn't stand up when faced with someone stronger."Shameful! You dragged Inigo into your mess, yet you blame him instead of protecting him as an adult," Zorka said.Approaching Inigo's prone body on the floor, Zorka checked his pulse and examined the wounds caused by the lashings.Inigo's clothes were torn, and the lash marks crisscrossed, drawing blood. Zorka clenched his teeth to contain his anger."You tortured this child simply because you were
Zorka Slavy : Rise of the Supreme Sorcerer Inigo's confession
Before answering Zorka's question, Inigo, lying on the soft bed, stared at the ceiling of the room. The comforting feeling of lying on the clean and comfortable mattress made him feel sad."I'm tired," Inigo began to speak."I'm tired of living on the streets. Especially having to raise those kids alone. I'm overwhelmed, Zorka. Especially when there's danger like yesterday, I couldn't protect them at all.And with your earlier statement, I'm even more stressed. I want them to live a normal life under the care of adults. They deserve to live well."Zorka listened. He didn't want to interrupt Inigo's words before the child finished his story."I also feel the burden growing heavier when we don't have money to buy food. What's worse is they need new clothes. So far, they've been wearing the same clothes without changing. They rarely even get to bathe.”Inigo paused for a moment to take a breath. The weight on his heart lingered."I used to live alone without thinking about the burdens I
Zorka Slavy : Rise of the Supreme Sorcerer Changing Inigo's face
Zorka glanced at Inigo's foster children. Initially, he offered them to be cared for by Uncle Burt. However, he needed to discuss his intentions with Inigo again to get permission. Besides, Uncle Burt seemed willing to take care of the five children without any objection."I've mentioned it, Uncle. That's why I need to get Inigo's approval first," said Zorka.Uncle Burt nodded in agreement. He even agreed if Inigo also wanted to live with him as his adopted son. He had no objections at all; in fact, Uncle Burt would be happy to have a companion in his home. Uncle Burt had been very lonely since his wife passed away."If Inigo agrees, he can also stay with me here. I don't mind. Let's be a family here. Since my wife passed away, I've been really lonely."Zorka looked at Inigo's foster children one by one. They were eating quietly, listening to his conversation with Uncle Burt."What about you kids? Would you like to become Uncle Burt's adopted children if Inigo agrees? Besides, Uncle B
Zorka Slavy : Rise of the Supreme Sorcerer New Face, New Name.
The surge of energy from the face-changing rune was powerful. Even Inigo's eye covered by the bandage felt the waves of its strength. The rune glowed, enveloping Inigo's entire body."Watch closely how the face-changing magic rune works!" Azurks commanded Zorka.Zorka stood behind Azurks, observing how Azurks' magic worked.The burst of magical light shot up into the sky, gathering in the middle directly above Inigo standing on the face-changing magic rune.Then, the magical light descended like rain, falling onto Inigo's body. The light spread, covering his entire body. In a short time, the light seemed to seep into Inigo's body.Inigo's face changed. The shape of his jaw, nose bone, eyebrows, lips, and even his eyes changed.The bandage covering one of his eyes opened. Inigo reflexively closed his eyes. His reddish hair changed color to golden.Inigo still kept both of his eyes closed as the magical light disappeared entirely. Zorka immediately approached Inigo, as did Azurks."Open

Zorka rested for a few minutes. When he woke up, he and Azurks flew along with the potion-infused water, allowing them to float.In the middle of the lake, right where the Axolotl monster once nested, Zorka scattered the water as if it were rain. Zorka's clear potion immediately hit the lake, turning the once blue water black and boiling. Thick green smoke emerged from the boiling lake water. The hissing sound was horrifying.Azurks created protective bubbles to shield the villagers from the poisonous smoke."This is correct," said Zorka as he watched the boiling lake."For a while, the lake will look disgusting as the venomous mucus is being neutralized. The green smoke is evidence that the venom has been released!""What will happen next?" Azurks asked."We'll just wait on land. The process may take a long time because the contamination has been going on for years." Zorka asked Azurks to land. He instructed Umayah to prepare a carpet and umbrella on the lakeside.After Umayah carrie

To keep the presence
Azurks provided crucial information. The blue crystal dragon bit the Axolotl monster not just to eat it, but also to research the venom content in its mucus using its tasting senses.The complex content could be tackled by Zorka. After escorting Umayah home, Zorka brought out some other food ingredients to prepare dinner for the kids taken care of by Umayah. Even though Zorka had stored wheat beforehand.Zorka asked Umayah to share some food with the villagers, as he was sure almost everyone in the village must be starving. Additionally, Zorka created a large water reservoir to distribute to the villagers. He used magic to make the water reservoir. Then, he created a dimensional hole to transfer water from the spring to the reservoir.It didn't take long for Zorka to fill the water reservoir. He estimated that the water stored in Umayah's yard would last for a week.After ensuring everything he did was completed, Zorka left the village using teleportation. With the information obtaine

Azurks, eat it!
Azurks quickly scanned the conditions underwater, where the Venomous Axolotl resided. He emitted a bit of his aura, causing the monster in the water to become restless. It moved around, crawling at the bottom of the lake as the sound of Azurks' aura echoed.Gazing fiercely at the Venomous Axolotl, Azurks was about to inform Zorka when he sensed the arrival of a human. Swiftly, he made himself invisible to the human except to Zorka.As his master was invited to visit the house of an elderly woman named Umayah, Azurks asked for permission to inspect the lake.Azurks discovered that the venom produced by the Venomous Axolotl, which was the size of a blue whale, was highly toxic. Its venom didn't immediately kill the lake's ecosystem in one spread. Instead, it spread slowly and had a deadly effect on the fertility of the village's soil. Even the animals in the area, which were typically calm and gentle, turned savage, destroying everything in their path.While Zorka accepted the granny Um

Venomous Axolotl Monster
All the food Zorka served was gone. However, there was still some water and juice left. Zorka asked Umayah to keep the water and juice. Earlier, Zorka had brought some wheat baskets that he asked Azurks to fill into his dimension space.Azurks obtained the wheat when Zorka asked him to return to the beastmaster realm. In that realm, there were many wild plants commonly eaten by humans, including vast fields of wheat that grew without ever being harvested by humans (very few humans could enter the beastmaster realm).The children looked sleepy after eating for a while. The feeling of fullness made them comfortable."You sleepy?" Zorka asked. The children nodded in unison.Hearing Zorka's question, Umayah looked at the children. Their faces, initially pale, started to show their natural color. One of the children, seemingly a toddler, began to doze off.Umayah approached the toddler and carried them."You should rest. It's been a long time since you ate until full, making it difficult f

The food and drinks from the dimension space.
Zorka is taken aback as he looks at the children. Their vacant gazes, devoid of life's energy, fill him with pity. Umayah, noticing Zorka's surprise, explains."These ten children are the victims of parents who were destroyed by the monster. They are all orphaned, truly alone.”Umayah leads Zorka to a room that appears to be the living room. In the spacious room, there are chairs stacked high, covering the windows. In fact, Zorka only realizes upon entering Umayah's house that it feels dark. This is because the windows of Umayah's house are covered by tall, thick objects.Zorka sits on the carpet, its faded color covered in dust. Before sitting down, Umayah takes a broomstick. She sweeps the carpet to remove the dust that dirties it. However, her efforts are not very successful; the dust flies in all directions and ends up back on the carpet.Watching Umayah's efforts to please her guest, Zorka asks her to stop trying to clean the dust on the carpet."It's okay, Granny Umay. You don't

Their dimly lit eyes
Zorka blinks his eyes repeatedly, then rubs them."Are we there already?" he asks, still drowsy."How could we be there already when flying on a winged camel just makes you sleepy!" Azurks says, annoyed.Instead of waking up as scolded by Azurks, the man hugs the camel's hump again, drifting back to sleep due to his extreme tiredness."Oh, in that case, wake me up when we arrive!" says Zorka."Tsk, if you flew with me, we'd be there in the blink of an eye." Azurks grumbles. He then transforms into a necklace and curls around Zorka's neck, falling asleep as well.Some time later, the winged camel stomps its feet. It snorts into Zorka's hair, causing the young man to open his eyes. He stretches them momentarily."It seems we've arrived!" Zorka exclaims, standing beside the winged camel and gazing at the village gate where a rusty nameplate hangs. Even the iron plate appears rusty and swings as the desert wind blows."Wow, the location is more chaotic than I thought," Zorka remarks. The

Zorka yawned, while Azurks curled around his neck. Azurks shrunk to the size of a baby's wrist. They looked like shiny blue necklace accessories.Many traders chattered, offering their goods. Zorka bought a small bag of dried fruits to snack on while enjoying the market atmosphere. The market was cozy and clean. Traders made it that way to make tourists feel comfortable and want to come back.Actually, in Zorka's world, there are flying balloon transports. But tickets are expensive and limited, so only certain people like nobles, kings, or sultans can use it.Once, the kingdom of Hexonia deliberately used ships because the sudden appearance of Azurks in the sea made King Eldermyst spontaneously order his subjects to use ships. Likewise, when Azurks appeared for the second time, they still had to use ships because their sailing position was close to the country where Azurks appeared.Zorka also wanted to experience air balloon transportation. But because of the limited space and only c

The Sultanate of Azuraan
After a month of being tossed around on the sea, Zorka finally set foot on land at a port called Dajaj. The port was named Dajaj because many of its native residents raised chickens, especially roosters that had a melodious crow in the morning. That's why the people of Dajaj named their port Dajaj, which means rooster.The first thing Azurks felt when arriving at the port was the heat. The Dajaj port had no trees for shade. Even the distant view Zorka saw was just vast desert."Actually, what are you up to in Sandhill, Mr. Zorka?" asked the ship's sorcerer crew who came down to buy some supplies and deliver goods and money for the owner of the lemons used by Zorka."Just adventuring," Zorka didn't want to explain further."Oh, I thought you were looking for something unique or rare artifacts, haha. By the way, Mr. Zorka. What level is your magic at? Even if you say you're at the King level nearing grand, that's highly illogical," the ship's sorcerer crew remarked.Zorka was surprised

Cleaning the ship at sea.
Zorka immediately dispelled his magic. The body parts of the sirens affected by his magic scattered around.The ship Zorka boarded became very dirty. Zorka rolled his eyes when he found out that Azurks deliberately removed his protective bubble magic while his magic was destroying the siren colony."What's your reason for removing the protective bubble magic, Azurks?" asked Zorka. The entire ship was stained with blood and pieces of siren bodies, with only Zorka safe because he protected himself with stronger magic than Azurks' bubble."I did it to make the human named Franky, who summoned the siren colony, aware. But you made him fall asleep instead, haha," Azurks chuckled at his own antics."Tsk, you liar!" Zorka cursed.Zorka knew that Azurks spread the siren blood on the ship for one purpose: if the ship ever passed through a sea route where there was a siren colony, the sirens in that area would stay away after catching the scent of blood on the ship.Azurks had once told stories
