"Vivian? Ah, he's your son…" The woman suddenly realized something. "Sadly, you're too far away from here…" She threw a black badge to the palm.
The badge flew to the large palm.
*DING*
The air blurred and everything disappeared.
Someone groaned in the vortex as the badge vanished into the air with the palm that was formed by pure energy.
The woman sneered, "This is a badge created by Lord himself, there's nothing you can…" Her expression changed and tried to reach Angele with her right hand before finishing the word.
*Clank*
A shadow of a red burning crow blocked the woman's hand and made some loud noise.
"Kin! Let's retreat!" The woman leaped away after her attack was blocked and turned into a floating black shadow in the air.
*BOOM*
A white blade that was more than 10 meters long came from nowhere and landed on the location the woman was at. The translucent blade slowly disappeared into the air within seconds.
The earth was shaking but the blade left no trace on the ground. It almost felt like the blade was just an illusion.
*BAM*
Angele fell to the ground with his face soaked in blood. Blue light dots flashed in front of his eyes as he rubbed his face. The silver metal pattern had broken into pieces and started disappearing.
"It's damaged again…" Angele was enraged. "The Metal Mastery just recovered and now it's destroyed again! That woman… That woman!"
He tightened his left fist, while the eye-shaped amethyst slowly started glowing. "If I can activate my true form here… the woman will stand no chance against me!"
"Turin!" He sent the message.
"Master?" Turin responded through the ring.
"Victoria! Give the job to Victoria!" Angele gritted his teeth and shouted, "Kill her! Track her down and kill her! Kill everyone that's related to her! Just kill them all!"
"Master, she's a servant of the Shadow Lord. Why don't we inform Shadow Lord and ask her to expel this woman? I think Shadow Lord won't attack us just for her." Turin stopped for a second, it seemed like he was checking the intel from Dark Wizard Toward, and he continued, "Victoria is wanted by all the organizations on this land and we'll become the target if someone recognized him."
"This woman has become a problem! We need to get rid of her as soon as possible or she might interrupt the initiation of our plan!"
"I understand. I'll do it myself if the situation gets worse." Turin chuckled.
*PA*
Angele ended the communication as his expression turned serious.
The ruins of the mansion were surrounded by a large ball of white mist.
Two columns of dark-red coffins were hidden in the mist and the strong force field they released distorted the air.
Black shadow chains connected the all the coffins.
There were about ten coffins with their lids removed.
*CHI*
The white mist gathered beside the coffins and turned into ten mummies with white bandages on their bodies. The mummies had white translucent swords in hands and there were marks of a burning crow in the center of their chests. All of the mummies had part of their limbs missing and they looked terrifying.
The black shadow chains that connected the coffins melted and turned into a two-meter-tall shadow.
Angele waved his right hand without turning his head around.
The mummies slowly returned to the coffins and the black shadow disappeared into the darkness.
"Is anyone still conscious?" Angele buffed his voice and questioned.
No one responded, everyone was sleeping and they just lay on the ground quietly.
It was late at night; the area around the mansion was deadly silent and Angele could not even hear the insects making noise.
Angele coughed several times and walked to a female wizard in a black robe. He grabbed the woman's cheek and opened her mouth.
"Tongues is black… and this smell… it must be the Red Jade Potion." Angele took out a black stone from his pouch and waved the stone slightly below the woman's nose.
The fragrance released by the stone spread to the area and it was quite refreshing.
Seconds later, the female wizard woke up.
"Master!" She quickly sat up. "Are you alright?"
"You're familiar with the Watchers, right? Wake them up with this stone. You can break it into pieces so the ones that regain their consciousness can help." Angele handed the stone to the female wizard, she was a student of a wizard that served Vivian and Angele could trust her.
Angele stood up and found the young boy that was reading in the reading room and the maid with red hair.
They survived as the reading room was protected by the strongest defensive rune circle he had; however, they had not woken up yet.
They served Angele well and he liked them. He asked the female wizard to take care of them and walked to the two columns of red coffins.
Angele clapped his hands with no hesitation.
*PA*
A dark shadow slowly surrounded the coffins after Angele clapped his hands.
The shadow floated in the air and moved to Angele.
'It's great that I had those guards from Dark Wizard Tower. They're the reason I survived the attack…' Angele calmed down and checked the surroundings. The guards and Watchers were woken up, but their heads were still dizzy.
The leader of the team also woke up and he slowly stood up.
"Tell my mother that I'm fine, but I need to find a place to hide." Angele sent the message to the leader using energy particles and disappeared into the flames.
The black shadow beside Angele also disappeared into the sky quickly.
"Yes, master." The leader bowed in the direction Angele headed to; Angele had already disappeared when the leader raised his head.
"Captain, we failed to protect master and we'll probably be punished…" The female wizard straightened her back and looked at the leader.
"Master left because he knows that the enemy will come back for him. He's the only target so he wanted to protect us by leaving this area…" There was a bitter smile on the man's face. "I never thought I'd become a burden one day…"
"What about master Lyn?" the female wizard wondered.
"She's stilling working in the Mermaid's Song, someone needs to take care of master's job…" The leader nodded and continued, "I know what you're implying. I already informed her about the situation and she'll report the incident to the organization."
"The assassination might intiate another war…" The female wizard sighed deeply.
"Yeah… Someone from the council tried to assassinate master and the elder council will be enraged…" The leader raised his head and looked at the sky, he had no idea what else he should say.
*****************************
In the dark forest.
A ball of fire was flashing in the forest and it was moving forward at full speed.
Angele felt like he was moving in another dimension and it almost looked like his body had disappeared from this world, but he could easily see everything around him.
It was the effect of the elemental teleportation. With the help of the Fire Eye, Angele could still check the surroundings while moving at full speed.
Angele carefully checked if there was unknown mentality wave in the area.
He created a terrifying illusion and scared the woman away with the guards that were sent to him by the Dark Wizard Tower.
The guards from the Dark Wizard Tower were created by the Department of Change and they could assist each other during the battles. The shadow and the mummies worked together perfectly at the first try.
The shadow was like a motherboard that could guide the other guards and empower them.
However, different guards came with different power. The black shadow was the brain of the guards and it could empower the upgraded guards from the Dark Wizard Tower.
Angele utilized the guards as their strongest power was the illusion ability. The white blade dealt no damage to the ground as it was just an illusion. That was the reason why Angele left right away after woke up just one wizard.
He was not sure if the woman would come back for him.
Angele changed his route multiple times and informed Vivian that he was safe. Also, he checked the information on the woman using the intel system of Dark Wizard Tower.
The information was transferred to Angele's head through the mentality wave.
'Eugene Elis, one of the nine Shadow Lord's adopted children. Her power level is between a rank 4 and a rank 5 wizard. She is cruel and arrogant. Eugene kills people for no reason and loves to torture her enemies. Also, part of her body is abnormal, and her beautiful face is an effect of a magic device.'
'Abnormal, huh?' Angele recalled the woman's appearance. 'Well, a face that looked like a young girl and the body of a muscular man. I wonder why Shadow Lord can't fix her body… Interesting.'
Angele's expression suddenly changed, he stopped moving and stood between the bushes.
He looked at the dark bush and murmured in a low voice, "Already?"
A woman with black hair in red crystal armor slowly stepped out of the bush. The woman had a balanced body and a cute face. She looked attractive in the revealing armor she was wearing.
"Do you need my help? Master Purple Eye."
