‘It’s a bit unexpected but I can live with it.’ Angele released some dark mentality wave, which entered the lion man’s forehead, turning into a black scorpion shaped rune. The rune looked identical to the sign of Angele’s refined true form.
‘Phoenix is like a soul form created by my mentality and there will be no conflict.’ Angele looked at the black rune on the lion man’s forehead, satisfied.
‘This rune will absorb the negative emotions and convert them into energy. Although the structure will be damaged when using the negative emotions, with my rune control, it shouldn’t be a big problem.
‘Alright, I’ll name the talent ability for the second mentality crystal as summoning.’ Angele was satisfied with the result.
The lion man could help him create a creature that was stronger than his normal form.
The lion man itself was weak, however, Angele could control the lion man using the negative emotions, and the latter would be strengthened to a certain level.
‘Alright, the last one, Metal Mastery…’ Angele looked at the first mentality crystal and he realized that he had a Legacy Magic Circle Set in the Dark Wizard Tower.
Angele was focusing on the Metal Mastery when he became a wizard and no other wizard who practiced the metal spells reached his level. The talent ability could only be greatly improved in an environment that was full of metal energy particles.
However, the Metal Mastery was no longer practical during the battles to Angele.
Angele thought for a while and decided to replace the talent ability. His refined true form was close to the power level of a rank 8 wizard and he should be able to completely modify the rank 1 mentality crystal.
‘Maybe I should do something to the properties of the crystal…’
Angele recalled the defensive techniques he learned; he could turn one of the techniques or spells he learned over the years into a talent ability.
‘I need a defensive talent ability and my best choice will be something that doesn’t require spell materials. Maybe I should try strong defensive spells like Stone Armor or Stone Golem…’
The Stone Armor would create a layer of stone on the caster’s body which would regenerate after being damaged. The Stone Golem would turn the caster into a large stone monster and Angele would be able to control it from inside.
Angele thought for a while and decided to change the talent ability into Stone Golem since he could modify the contents of the stone if he wanted to.
The stone monster created by the spell could absorb materials like rocks or minerals, however, the strength of the materials would not be as strong as the materials used by the Metal Mastery. Due to the heavy weight of the stone monster, it had decent attack and defensive abilities. The spell was also the strongest level 1 spell Angele had.
Due to the limitation of the mentality crystal, Angele could not use spells that exceeded the rank of the mentality crystal. He had better spells, but they had high levels.
Angele engraved the runes on the surface of the crystal and raised his hand, tapping the rune circle on the ground slightly. His mentality wave was quickly turned into the dark mentality and the black smoke around the mentality crystals formed three small signs of the refined true form.
The runes flew to the three mentality crystals and started rotating like satellites.
‘Finally, it’s done. With the signs of my refined true form, all my talent abilities will cost less mentality when activated, since they’ll be consuming the dark mentality. I’ll be able to activate those abilities in the main world without any problem.’
Angele removed the rune circles from the ground using his right hand.
He checked the time using the biochip and realized that he spent two days on the modification.
Angele sighed with relief and closed his eyes. He wanted to rest for a while.
Two hours later, he opened his eyes and noticed that the purple ring on his left hand was glowing.
Green? This is Juventus. Be prepared, the organization is sending a Viscount to take your position. Don’t be sad, it’s for the empire’s big plan. Make sure you treat him well so you’ll get more rewards after everything is settled.
Juventus sent Angele the message on behalf of their teacher in the Dark Wizard Tower.
Alright, I understand,
Angele responded in a light tone.
How’s the empire’s situation?
he asked.
The empire is doing well. The Shadow Lord’s territory is under our control, the Sky Lord and the Mirror Lord have left their bases. They’re working with Prince Evil Dragon at the Molten River area—it seems like they want to form an alliance, but small organizations can’t do anything to us.
Juventus chuckled.
Don’t worry, you signed the contract and you’ll be fine,
he added.
That’s great. I was once a core member and it seems like the organization will still treat me well.
Angele chuckled as well.
It’s great that you can understand. Alright, I have something else to take care of. I’ll talk to you later.
Sure.
They cut the communication.
The smile disappeared from Angele’s face immediately.
Raising his left hand, he created a ring of red flames around the purple ring and blocked the communication.
Angele controlled the mentality wave accurately and made sure he did not alert any member of the organization.
It was part of the scorpion woman’s bloodline power—although he could not utilize the power completely in the main world, the ability was still quite helpful.
He cheated the ring using the illusions and made sure that he did everything properly.
Angele sneered and took the ring off his left hand, laying it on the ground.
‘They made the wrong decision.’ The others did not know the situation, but Angele was familiar with the background of the Shadow Lord due to Henn.
Shadow Lord was related to the Shadow Realm.
Henn and the Arisma already told him about the Shadow Realm when he was still being tracked down.
Dark Wizard Tower had a large intel center, however, it seemed like they did not know the background of Shadow Lord. They assassinated Shadow Lord and the Shadow Realm would fight back sooner or later.
Shadow Realm was a mysterious realm, people barely knew anything about it, and no one knew how strong the residents of the realm were.
The Fairy Empire sent a lot of soldiers into the main world and they were spending a large number of resources every day. However, they suddenly stopped advancing after the first several victories.
Obviously, they were stopped by someone.
After the short conversation with Juventus, he assumed that the empire was stopped by the strong beings of Shadow Realm and the Fairy Empire was trying to solve the problem.
‘Sky Lord and Mirror Lord probably noticed the situation, so they decided to form an alliance and eliminate Fairy Empire. The war is coming to an end…’
Angele stopped up and pushed the stone gate open.
It was quiet outside and no one was around.
The land outside the headquarters was vibrating intensely; it seemed like there was a strong creature hitting the ground, and there were people screaming and something exploding.
The stone chamber was well sealed and Angele did not notice anything when he was inside.
Angele’s expression changed, he ran to the stone window in the hall and peeked outside.
The forest outside was burning, the red flames and the black smoke were striking to the air. Countless dead bodies and body parts covered the ground.
There were also black creatures that looked like dragons flying in the blue sky.
Those creatures were coated with a metallic substance and about four meters long. They looked like flying dragons made of metal. The black robes on the ground were releasing fire lances constantly and some of the flying dragons were eliminated.
There were also some metal dragons on the ground and the wizards were trying to handle them with golems or elementals.
The red and blue energy waves were exploding in the endless sky. They looked like fireworks.
Angele quickly glanced around, trying to see if the elders were also fighting, but did not find anyone.
‘Damn! It’s the Wooden Dragon Legion…’ He quickly jumped out of the window and landed on the grass.
He found an old male wizard that lost an arm and a leg lying on the ground. The old wizard was trying to heal his wounds using some potions.
Angele rushed to the old wizard, took out a blue potion, and poured it over the old wizard’s forehead.
The blue liquid was quickly absorbed by the wizard.
This is an energy potion and it’ll increase your mentality temporarily. Find somewhere safe and treat your wounds. I have a question, where are the elders?!
Angele questioned in a deep tone.
The elders… are fighting with the strong enemies…
The old wizard struggled for a second and pointed the direction.
Thanks.
Angele raised his head and pointed at the ground.
Summon!
A large bump appeared on the grass and a stone golem was created. The yellow golem was about six meters tall and it walked to Angele slowly.
It won’t work…
the old wizard on the ground advised.
The golems are too heavy and slow. Those monsters can only be damaged by powerful spells.
Angele knew the wooden dragons well. Those wooden dragons were strong and they had high resistance.
He just wanted to test if the golem was strong enough and he could take the old wizard to a safer place.
Angele looked at the west of the sky and detected some aggressive energy waves. The energy waves stronger than the energy waves released by rank 4 wizards.
The elders of Elemental Hand activated the inheritor magic circles; however, it seemed like they were not winning the intense battle.
Angele knew that the strong beings of the Fairy Empire could easily destroy his physical form in the wizard world and he doubted if he could help the elders.
‘Dark Wizard Tower… You’ve crossed the line…’ He tightened his fist.
