"Merysa never loved you, Seraphina. That's why she cast the body merging curse. She sacrificed herself when you defiled her. So you have two bodies within one soul. Merysa sacrificed herself so her soul could be freed from the suffering you caused!" Marshall's voice trembled.Seraphina widened his eyes. He couldn't accept Marshall's words because what Seraphina felt was excruciating pain after his father disowned him and his mother committed suicide using poison from Marshall. Desperately, Seraphina didn't receive support from his environment. Instead, he was bullied for being an unwanted child.The bullying from around him wasn't just verbal but had escalated to physical acts. Seraphina always fell victim to pranks that left his body bruised.Only when he became Marshall's student, recommended by his late mother who entrusted him to Marshall.Seraphina was an exceptionally talented student. He could master magic with just one instruction from Marshall. In fact, Seraphina could advanc
Marshall, aware of Seraphina's betrayal in saving King Eldermyst who stole the Eternal Ice Crystal, was deeply disappointed. He ultimately sacrificed himself to imprison the crystal with his own life force, leaving behind a trace of his soul to guard it, which Seraphina now seeks alongside the potion to suppress their transformations."You've come here only to reopen old wounds, Seraphina," Marshall seemed to resist Seraphina's intentions."Shut up, old bastard. None of this would've happened if Merysa had just accepted my love and not married that rotten nobleman!" Seraphina erupted with fury. A look of vengeance flashed in their eyes."Even if you refuse to give me the potion I seek, that's not a problem. But if you won't hand over the crystal, then I'll take it by force. I already know how to break the seal of protection around it!"Marshall's expression remained stoic. He simply closed his eyes as if resigned."It's up to you, Seraphina. This was all expected. Do as you wish. But
Arcanumia, a lush country with plenty of forests and mountains teeming with animals and monsters. The country is home to many powerful sorcerers, including Renata and Demista, a couple of top-notch sorcerers residing in Pearlyan, Arcanumia's city, in the Kayleigh Mansion.It was almost winter as autumn was fading away. Arcanumia organized a sorcerer competition, inspired by an event in Prabhutpura.Demista, a noble sorcerer, had a crucial meeting with sorcerer leaders worldwide. They decided to hold this competition to replace the failed one in Prabhutpura.Demista's aim was to boost Arcanumia's reputation globally. However, he had hidden intentions behind this competition.Meanwhile, Zorka and Azurks ventured to the country where Zorka was born. Zorka, a boy, felt nothing as he set foot on his homeland once again. It had been a year since he left Arcanumia. Now, his body had grown tall and sturdy, unlike when he was reborn. "Do you recognize this country, Zorka?" asked Azurks.Zorka
The competition registration site was set up in the town square. Zorka approached the place, the atmosphere bustling with activity. Just like in Prabhutpura, there were long lines of applicants here too."There are so many applicants this time," remarked Zorka, waiting in line."There are still 50 more people to go before reaching the registration spot.""Are you sure you want to participate?" Azurks asked telepathically."Yes, I have to participate. Especially since the reward for the winner is that all wishes can be granted by the committee and judges overseeing the competition," Zorka explained."What if you confront Demista, Zorka? After all, he's hailed as the initiator of the competition in this country," Azurks asked."That's what I'm hoping for!" Zorka replied firmly.Azurks shook his head. He didn't doubt Zorka's courage. However, at this point, Zorka wasn't ready to confront Demista. Especially since Zorka's strength still needed perfecting. Although his physical strength an
The first day is the preliminary round or the first round. Unlike in Prabhutpura, the preliminary round is divided into three parts.The first part is the level check. Zorka breezed through because the first requirement to enter the preliminary round is to be at the level of a beginner king, and Zorka has leveled up twice.The second round is the magic strength level. Again, Zorka made it through. The magic strength gauge showed that Zorka's strength is far above average. It's even said that his power is almost reaching a higher level.The committee members witnessing the significant change in the gauge could only shake their heads. They were stunned by the power of a 10-year-old, but his strength almost matched that of a grand sorcerer.What's even more astonishing to the committee is Zorka's name, which some of them feel they recognize."Zorka? Zorka Slavy. This name..." one committee member exclaimed upon reading the participant's name on the paper."If I'm not mistaken, this name
Zorka's power left everyone in awe. Even Ellenasia was stunned to see the six elemental testing stones glowing simultaneously. His power was stable, with none of the basic elements dominating. Instead, they were all equally strong and stable."It can't be!" Ellenasia exclaimed. "It's impossible for a human to possess six basic elements with such stable power!""A human with rare elemental magic talent!""That little kid has unexpected power.""Wow, Zorka, I can't believe you actually have six basic elements!" Paroo shouted.Zorka opened his eyes as the light from the six elemental testing stones began to fade.The three individuals with 5 basic elements felt embarrassed for underestimating Zorka. The last participant turned out to have even rarer and stronger basic elements."How is this possible? The rarest basic elements. He can't possibly be placed in any team." A committee member felt pressured knowing that there was a child with such incredibly rare power.In the tower where Rena
"Don't say you're using Zorka as a means to achieve your goals, Renata?" Azurks said directly, without beating around the bush.Renata was shocked by Azurks' words. She didn't expect the legendary dragon to be able to read her thoughts."I know your intentions, Renata. You have the power to break Demista's seal. Yet for years, you've chosen to remain silent in confinement. Watching over Zorka, who was weak and sickly.Don't tell me you don't have any intention of using Zorka. Because the evidence shows that you let Demista discard him and poison him. Yet you could have helped Zorka right then and there, or you could have saved him at birth by calling back his soul thrown by you into another world."Renata unconsciously shook her head. Her subconscious mind agreed with Azurks' words."You know Zorka is a rare descendant. If you had saved Zorka right at birth, reuniting his scattered soul, perhaps his fate would have been luckier. His soul wouldn't have been shaken. Have you considered
Renata felt frustrated because her plan had been uncovered by Azurks. She never expected that her meticulously crafted plan could be easily unraveled. Renata became grumpy after Azurks left.What's even worse is that she couldn't use her clairvoyance on Zorka. It was as if there was a barrier blocking Renata's psychic sight."What is this? Why is my clairvoyance clouded?" Renata grumbled.She tried to use telepathy to reach Azurks to question what he had done after he left the tower where she was confined. However, Renata's efforts were in vain. Azurks seemed to intentionally block her telepathic signal."What is that dragon doing to me?”It turned out that Azurks decided to sever the magic tracking signal on Zorka's body when he changed the boy's face. He did it deliberately to make Renata realize her mistake. Additionally, Azurks also wanted to relieve Zorka's burden of wanting to save his mother. Even though Renata actually didn't need Zorka's help. What Renata needed to do was to
