Eulicaâs clash with Angel, every contact between them, stirred up boundless waves of energy.
Such a terrifying display of power was enough to prove Angelâs current strength!
However, Angel had only reached the level of an Official Wizard in terms of bloodline, while Eulica was an Official Wizard on the bloodline side herself. In their clashes, Eulica clearly had the upper hand.
Beneath the veil of nightfall, the two figures intertwined rapidly. Outsiders couldnât even make out any shadows, only seeing waves of energy continuously diffusing outward.
Some waves of energy even spread from the manor to beyond the aura of bloodlight!
However, after simplifying the sealing circle, the waves of energy became less forceful once they left the bloodlight, turning into fierce winds instead. The golden brilliance was almost blown away by this gale.
It was thanks to White Bearâs intervention, who erected a transparent barrier in front of them, that prevented the golden brilliance from being swept away.
But those winds transformed from the waves of energy coursed down the road, directly funneling toward Gru Town behind.
That night, the townsfolk of Gru Town felt the fierce winds howl outside. Even when they firmly shut their windows, they could still hear the whistling winds and the clatter of various objects being battered by wind and snow, as if someone was whispering mournfully.
Moreover, they could hear thunderous rumblings coming from the direction of Pat Manor as if thunder was striking.
No one dared to step outside, all of them huddled in their homes, praying in their hearts, waiting for this night to pass.
Meanwhile, within the bloodlight.
Angel was gasping for breath, but Eulica showed no significant change. Unscathed, she seemed to be on the cusp of victory over Angel, just as White Bear had speculated.
Due to his waning strength, Angel, caught off guard during an attack, was suddenly sent flying by a tremendous force.
A sudden flash of red light in Eulicaâs eyes seemed to signal she had noticed something, her lips curling into a terrifying, sinister smile. Her figure accelerated suddenly, her bare toes tracing a fiery dance in the air as she dashed towards a certain point ahead.
There was nothing there, but Angelâs uncontrollable form happened to fall in that direction.
Unable to control himself, Angel provided Eulica with an opportunity.
With a sudden movement, Eulica pressed her hands to her waist, pulling out two long whips lined with sharp teeth, transforming them into two shadowy serpents!
Hissâ
Beneath the swirling snow, the howling wind, and the bright disk-like moon overhead.
The two whip-shadows, carrying immense blood energy, tore through the void as if two giant maws, baring their fangs under the moonlit sky, lashed vigorously at the uncontrollable form of Angel.
In the midst of the whip-shadows, Angelâs figure was split in two.
Flesh tore asunder, blood sprayed.
All who witnessed this scene showed expressions of shock.
Lyonâs gaze gradually became rigid, then hopeless, moisture suddenly filling his eyes as he muttered Angelâs name.
Elsewhere, Gold Brilliance covered her eyes, not daring to believe the scene unfolding before her.
The smoking pipe in Parshaâs hand dropped into the snow with a thud, and he himself fell to his knees, his face filled with a lost expression. Having seen Angel grow up since he was a child, Parsha never imagined that he, with all his white hair, would outlive Angel.
Eulica stood under the moonlight that resembled a colossal disk, laughing unrestrainedly as the wind whipped her hair around, much like a Gorgon of legend spreading fear around the world.
âWhy, why didnât you save him⊠isnât he your disciple?â Gold Brilliance asked Sanders, her eyes still brimming with tears.
Sanders glanced coldly at Gold Brilliance and said nothing.
Instead, it was White Bear who softly said, âKeep watching. Angel⊠he isnât so easily killed.â
No sooner had White Bear spoken than a figure flashed behind Eulica, hanging midair, unrecognizable against the backlight, but the bright golden hair was unmistakable!
With a loud âboomâ, Eulica was smashed from the sky to the ground.
This sudden twist left the grieving crowd startled.
Gold Brillianceâs tears hadnât even dried when she looked in astonishment towards the place where snow dust billowed, âYoung Master Pat isnâtâŠâ dead?
White Bear exhaled a long breath of relief inwardly, thinking: Just as I thought.
He had also been somewhat shocked earlier, thinking something might have really happened to Angel. But he noticed that Sanders remained calm from beginning to end, not showing any surprise, which made White Bear sense something was amiss.
Who is Angel? According to White Bearâs understanding of the hierarchy of Angelâs identities, he is first and foremost an Alchemist, followed by a Disciple of Sanders, and only lastly a Wizard Apprentice of Barbarian Cave. Although all these identities belong to him, without a doubt, the identity of âAlchemistâ is the most famous.
Any Witcher Organization would not easily give up an Alchemist.
All the more since the only one who might potentially advance into an Alchemy Master from Barbarian Cave right now, is Angel.
Taking all circumstances into account, White Bear did not think Sanders would simply watch Angel die. Therefore, the only reason Sanders hadnât taken action was that the current situation was still under Angelâs control.
It seemed that this was indeed the case.
Indeed, conjecture was just conjecture, and the unexpected twists in reality were truly unforeseen.
While White Bear was reflecting, Angel engaged in combat with Eulica again, and this time everyone finally noticed somethingâEulica hit Angel multiple times, even inflicting what they thought were fatal wounds, but in the end, Angel still stood unharmed before Eulica.
âIllusion Technique?â Although White Bear couldnât see what was wrong, he immediately realized the truth.
And the truth was indeed an illusion technique.
At first, when Angel got up close with Eulica, he was somewhat timid, but as soon as the real fight started, he discovered that although there was a significant gap between him and Eulica, he was not completely outclassed.
Thus, he began to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses.
He could sense that Eulica, while more brutal, indifferent, and crazed than usual, was clearly suffering from a feedback disruption to external information. This meant her sensory perception was even more impaired than normal.
During the attacks, Angel began releasing Illusion Nodes.
As expected, Eulica paid no attention to these Illusion Nodes. As more and more nodes were released and combined to form a dominion of Illusionary Realm, Angelâs disadvantage began to reverse!
In the dozens of subsequent attacks, due to the illusion, Eulica frequently made misjudgments.
Angel seized every opportunity, but the gap between him and Eulica was still too great; even when he caught her off-guard, it was never enough to be decisive in the fight.
Although the battle did not result in a clear winner in a short time, the sight of Angel suppressing Eulica was extremely gratifying to watch. This was especially true for people like Jin Cancan, who, unaware of the intricacies, simply rejoiced at Angel gaining the upper hand.
Lyon in the spectator stand also breathed a sigh of relief, and looking at Angel, he felt, apart from happiness for him, a genuine admiration from the bottom of his heart.
White Bear was also watching intently, partly because this duel between a Wizard Apprentice and an Official Wizard was a rare opportunity, and partly because of Eulicaâs identity⊠which concerned him greatly.
âStill too weak,â Sanders suddenly murmured to himself.
White Bearâs mouth moved, but in the end, he said nothing. He simply didnât know what to say, or rather, how to comment. Angelâs deficiencies were quite evident, but these could easily be resolved with time. If this was considered too weak, then the mainstream apprentices in the Wizardsâ Realm⊠might be nowhere better than salted fish.
After White Bear finished ruminating, Sanders suddenly said, âEulica is too weak.â
White Bear paused, realizing that Sandersâ previous comment was not aimed at Angel, but Eulica? White Bear frowned. Was Eulica weak? At present, it seemed indeed a bit weak, but was that important?
What he did not know was that shortly before, Sanders had just learned from Angel the information that âEulica has gone mad, and even Suise cannot suppress her.â
If one considered the current situation, the majority of Official Wizards could handle Eulicaâs strength, and âRed-hairedâ Suise was one of the prominent figures among contemporary wizards, even a potential leader among non-True Knowledge Wizards, also young and likely to advance to True Knowledge at any moment.
How could Suise fail to suppress Eulica?
âOr is there something else wrong with Eulica?â Sanders privately pondered.
At that moment, as Eulica was repeatedly attacked, and even beaten down by an apparently weak Apprentice, her expression became even crazier than before.
During a standoff with Angel, Eulica suddenly spread open her palm, and with a sudden flash of intense red light, a faint outline of an object appeared on her palm.
As Angel was puzzling over this, a figure suddenly swooped in from afar.
âEulica, stop!â The figure was upon them in an instant, and when Angel recognized the person, he did not feel surprised.
The bright red hair of the newcomer shone brilliantly.
It was Suise!
Suise looked at Angel with a complex expression. He had to maintain the blood seal circle every night, and he had been repairing the seal. However, he had been watching the battle between Angel and Eulica all along.
He remembered that not long ago when Angel left, he was just an âordinary Apprenticeâ. But now, his strength was beyond imagination. Suise estimated that if he were to confront Angel, the latter would probably be able to hold his ground for a while.
âAngel, you step back first. Eulica is not someone you can handle right now, especially since youâve angered her,â Suise said to Angel without inquiring about the mystery of his strength.
As Angel was wondering, Suise sighed softly, âHave you forgotten about that item Eulica has?â
That item? Angel paused for a moment and then realized something, turning to look.
Indeed, a splendid crown had appeared in Eulicaâs palm.
