A Sorcerer’s Journey

The cuckoo looked around with indignance and fear as traces of Grimm was nowhere to be found.

That guy was extremely horrifying!

It was no surprise that the Dark Demon-Hunter that roamed around during unknown world expeditions would use himself as the bait to seek for concealment Sorcerers from the Shadow Argus Sorcerer Academy and take them on reversed hunting!

Woo…

Suddenly, a humming sound was heard along with a slight space fluctuation, and a middle-aged Sorceress was forcefully ejected from the Void Aperture.

She was in fear as she looked around at the surroundings, while holding onto a magical staff that was surrounded by greyish-black energy sorcery, as if she was about to take on a sudden attack.

“Bistan, run, the plan has failed!”

The Sorceress shouted while she teleported toward a far off direction.

“Caw caw caw, let’s get her, she can’t run away, caw caw caw caw…”

Little Myna suddenly appeared beside the cuckoo that was Neeran and urged her to pursue the escaping Sorceress that had disappeared into the horizon and left no traces behind.

On the other hand.

Nothing was happening, the surroundings were unusually peaceful, and nothing odd had occurred; however, Bistan—the Atlas Skull, sensed that he was shrouded by the shadows of death that were oppressive and restrictive to his breath, he felt as if he would be drowned in the next moment.

However, there was presence of a horrifying Sorcerer that was nowhere to be seen nor sensed, perhaps he might be right behind him, and was about to cast a deadly attack at him!

Extremely horrifying…

Bistan was finally experiencing the feelings of the official Sorcerers and Sorcerer-Apprentices from ten years ago when they left the Hydra Wrath Sorcerer Academy alone during the Academy War for their mission, it was a fear that would destroy the confidence they had for the Shadow Argus Sorcerer Academy to triumph in the Holy Tower Apex Battle.

Where was he?

Had the horrifying Sorcerer gone ahead to pursue Master Guy after forcing him to appear, or had he remained here to continue his killing?

Guy did not escape immediately, as he knew that a Sorcerer-Apprentice would not stand a chance in facing a Level-2 Sorcerer, and he could only rely on the Marked Friendship key held in his hand.

“Bistan, this is your second time summoning me, you still have one chance left.”

The four-legged Skull Spider arrived at the Sorcerers World from the Black Aperture, fangs from its giant mouth were releasing poisonous fumes that surrounded itself while its fiery eyes were pulsing rapidly.

Bistan had already uncapped Wild Instinct Level 1 and returned to the normal size of a human body, he rested his weakened body behind the spider while slightly calming himself down from the tension.

Although he was facing a Level-2 Sorcerer, he had already summoned a creature from the Marked Friendship key, so it should be able to increase the chances of his escape.

Huh?

However, as soon as he landed on the spider, Bistan noticed that it did not escape according to his instruction and remained stationed on the same spot without any movement.

Bistan noticed that something was not right and complained in a deep voice, “Why are we still not moving, there might be a Level-2 Sorcerer here!”

“We stand no chance in this… this is the breath of a Dark Demon-Hunter, filled with high levels of Despair Energy, any creature, any tribe…no! Not an ordinary Dark Demon-Hunter, this would be a high level Dark Demon-Hunter equipped with an honor badge, a highly terrifying Sorcerer from the Demon-Hunting Expedition of the Sorcerers World, every Sorcerer that had survived the journeys that were piled with corpses would be a Slaughter Sorcerer!”

The four-legged Skull Spider mumbled shakily.

“We would surely stand no chance!”

Bistan was in disbelief with the assumption made by the powerful four-legged Skull Spider that was summoned by the Marked Friendship key by just sensing the breath that was unintentionally revealed by the opponent.

“Huhuhuhu, you felt the presence of Despair Energy? Interesting, only Soul Slaves of Sorcerers would be exceptionally sensitive toward such energy.”

All of a sudden, a mysterious black silhouette that was half-twisted appeared before the four-legged Skull Spider, a few meters above Bistan’s head.

There was a pair of soul-encroaching eyes under the greyish-white mask, eyes that were indeed soul assimilating, along with a Sabbatic Goat Staff that was like an evil incarnation, and also the presence of the world law influencing energy brought upon by the knowledge prying law that could only be sensed between Sorcerers; with the Sorcerer being the centre point, the energy spread across every direction from the back of the Sorcerer as if it was a spider web that unintentionally affected the flow of elemental law in the surroundings.

“Master…”

Before the Sorcerer-Apprentice could even make a sound, a black arc discharge drew in and bended light from all directions before it swiftly pierced through his body and landed on the four-legged Skull Spider, taking both of their lives.

A booming sound was heard when the Sorcerer-Apprentice and the four-legged Skull Spider were destroyed within a split second, as if they had totally disappeared from the Endless World and left no traces behind.

Grimm gave a cold-eyed stare before his bended shadow slowly disappeared along with a slight space fluctuation.

Being a Level-2 Sorcerer himself, Grimm should not have spent so much time in dwelling with a Sorcerer-Apprentice; however, it was this Sorcerer-Apprentice that had provoked his anger by proposing the name changes for Grimm Road and Vivian Port, as result, he had to leave for Hydra Wrath Sorcerer Academy in frustration as he could not take action against him within the city that was restricted by the Holy Tower law.

“Young Master, this guy was fast in escaping!”

After a slight space fluctuation, Grimm teleported to Little Myna, and both Little Myna and the cuckoo that was Neeran landed on his shoulders.

“Is this your Concealment Sorcery!?”

The cuckoo was shocked when she looked out from within the Robe of Representations, the surrounding skies and land were shown in the form of representations while she was within the law that was deep beneath.

Grimm ignored Neeran and continued to carefully track the traces of the escaping Sorcerer using Canine Olfactory Sorcery, while constantly sensing traces from the Relative Boundary; soon, he was able to locate an unusual area that was at a faraway distance.

It was the escaping Level-2 concealment Sorcerer from the Shadow Argus Sorcerer Academy.

“Wild Instinct Level 1, activate!”

Grimm’s body was elongated and filled with vigorous wild energy, soon densely covered with black scales, while the repulsive force below his feet assisted his Elemental Teleportation as he continuously closed in on the escaping concealment Sorcerer.

Black breath was exuded from Grimm’s body as he penetrated into an aperture that could hardly be seen by the normal eye and continued to blast himself toward his target.

“Star Attraction Sorcery.”

By utilizing the magnetic field circulation of the Gravity Stone and Star Stone, Grimm who had activated his wild instinct was travelling extremely fast and his shadows could barely be seen.

Spark!

A black arc discharge was blasted into the space aperture and the black breath from the Star Stone returned to circulate around Grimm, only then, Grimm stopped his pursuit as he had already sensed the complete destruction of the opponent that was hit by the Destructive Force.

“Alright, there is still one remaining, it will be our last mission in this Academy War to seek for the last concealment Sorcerer with our full effort.”

Cuckoo was stunned dazedly.

“That was, your power…”

Neeran would never forget the moment earlier when she felt the fear of death from the black arc discharge, could it be the energy capabilities of a Demon-Hunter that had been in foreign expeditions for years?
