Karlow quickly dashed to Damascus and he carried him on his back. He knew that he wouldnât be able to match that form of Valaree, and that retreating would be the best option for them to save their lives. He wanted to fight but he didnât want to waste the second life he had now. So, he couldnât be reckless. But he hadnât gone far away yet, when Valaree jumped in front of him.âDonât look at his eyes!â Damascus said faintly. Karlow quickly looked away from Valaree and he started to run to the other side. âYou can try looking at his chest. Just avoid looking at his face, or else youâll be tempted to look at those eyes.â Damascus said again.âDamn it! How can I fight like that?â Karlow exclaimed.âJust put me down,â Damascus said. âI will just slow you down. I am done for. So, just go and fight without thinking about me.âKarlow snickered. âAs if a noble knight like me can do that to a comrade who saved my life.ââAh! Damn it! Let me go!â Damascus shouted.Karlow was about to answer b
Damascus immediately ran towards Jake and hugged his friend tightly. Then he sat on the ground while catching his breath. âYou couldâve killed me with that woman,â he said while looking at the ground. âYou even saved me from death.ââSo the healing spell that I cast down there healed you?â Jake asked. âBut you were dead. You were dead even before we got there.ââThatâs what I knew as well. But I guess, you have awakened something that wasnât awakened even by the strongest mages in history. Or maybe even the Aetherlock,â Damascus replied.Jake looked at his friend. He did not say anything, but he thought about what Damascus said. He knew he didnât have the magic to bring dead people to life. He didnât even try using the reanimation magic even before. So, there must be a possibility that what Damascus said was true. âAnyway, we donât have much time to think about it right now,â Damascus suddenly said while slowly standing up.Jake nodded and his brows knitted when he saw the bodies of
âDamascus?!â Thalara shouted after coughing up blood. âHow come youâre still alive?! Damn you!âDamascus snickered while looking up at her. âHave you forgotten? I was once called âThe Immortal Damascus.â And once you have an Archmagus Maximus friend, youâre unlikely to die easily. Right, Jake?ââYou son of a gun, I thought you hit the bucket already,â Jake said with a faint smile on his face. Tharala cast a spell and the sword that was pierced in her slowly moved and was pulled out. The sword fell but Damascus caught it. She then cast a healing spell but Jake dispelled it, causing her wound to bleed more.âDoes it hurt?â Jake asked as he slowly floated around Thalara. âHow does it feel to be stabbed in the back by someone you know?âThalara did not respond. She just gritted her teeth while pressing the wound to at least lessen the bleeding. âYou think thatâs painful?â he asked again. âBut that was nothing compared to the pain that you caused me.âThalara then smiled and looked at Ja
The Vipers and the Wolves started to attack. They used all the magic powers they had to suppress the evil gods and Tharanos. Archris quickly ran towards Jake and he pulled him away from the chaos. âBring him inside Carolineâs barrier,â Lyca said. âWeâll fight with our comrades here. We have to be in the front line. You know our mages wouldnât last long and that there will be bloodbath in just a matter of minutes. So, move fast. Okay?âArchris nodded his head. Then without a word, he teleported together with Jake near the evacuation area. Caroline then touched the barrier and let them in. âOh, no,â Caroline exclaimed. Alica beside her was crying and the people started to crowd around them trying to see what happened to Jake.âCome on, Caroline. Donât cry,â Jake said. He was trying to hide the pain, but his face couldnât. Then his body started trembling. âCaroline, we donât have much time,â Archris said. âHeal Professor as fast as you can. We have to go back to the battlefield.ââB-
Thalaraâs intelligence was hard to match. She was the queen, the leader of the forest priestesses, and once, hailed the greatest forest priestess ever lived. She had led the elite faction, and protected them from extinction even before Jake arrived in Eldramoria. She had won many battles already, and was a feared tactician during the war of Eldramora against Tharanos.And Jake just forgot that. And that mistake put him in a terrible situation.He was still dizzy from the punch he took from Tharanos. He could feel his body, but couldnât move. He wanted to crawl away, as he knew what was coming next. And heard an unsheathing sword. And he yelped when he felt something was stabbed in his back. It was so painful but he couldnât even scream. âJake!â âAetherlock⌠I am sorryâŚââNo! You arenât dying yet!âThe ring on his finger illuminated a bright light, causing blindness to those around him. It was so bright that even the people in the evacuation area had to cover their eyes.Jake felt a
Jake looked at the five evil gods behind Tharanos. He remembered all of them, and the struggles he had against them flashed in his memories. He might have defeated Voragor and Dudgara, but he knew that fighting the remaining five together, and Tharanos would be a suicide. From the left of Tharanos, he saw the evil god of Pride. A woman in a red leather suit that was not zipped properly on the chest part because of the chest's massive size. Her name was Samarah. Next is the evil god of envy, a man in deep blue armor. He had blue eyes and long hair. He was called Ingo. Beside him is a man without a shirt, the evil god of lust. He was just wearing pants and leather boots. And his physic was so nice like he was a perfectly carved sculpture. He also had a blindfold. He was known as ValareeThen almost beside Tharanos, is a bald man with a red beard. He was wearing armor made of gold and a cape laced with shining gemstones. He is the evil god of greed, Mammonar. And the last one, was a sma
Tharanos put for marks around the evacuation area. Then he cast a spell. A black translucent barrier appeared and covered the evacuation area. The normal people didnât see it, but Caroline did. And she suddenly felt fear when she saw it covered the place.She looked at her brother. Jake was still on the ground bound by binding magic. She tried to call him, but his eyes were closed and not responding.The evacuation center went into panic when they saw what happened. They still couldnât fully understand what was happening, but they knew that they were in grave danger. They started shouting at the police and military, asking for assurance that they would be safe. Others were asking when the rescue would be coming, and some were forcing themselves out of the place.It was chaos, and the officers and authorities were having a hard time controlling the crowd. And in the middle of that, some fights broke out. A woman and a middle-aged man then approached Caroline. The woman pushed her fro
Tharanos slowly descended from above, his eyes locked at Jake and Thalara followed him with a proud face. The tyrant god-like creature that once terrorized Eldramoria softly landed on the ground, and even the people inside the barrier felt the strong and dreadful presence from that man and they started squirm and ran behind the officers and Caroline. But Jake did not waver. He just stood in the spot where he appeared while looking at the man who was just casually walking towards him. The dark aura emanating out of Tharanos did not affect him.He then looked around and he could not help but sigh when he saw the city was lit by the fire created by the evil gods walking towards where they were. The buildings and houses were destroyed. The whole city was already in ruins. âYou look worried,â Tharanos said. His steps were accompanied by black lightning and smoke. âAre you worried about the city?âTharanos raised his hands and the buildings behind him all fell down. Jake looked at the dir
Jake sat beside Damascusâ not moving body. His head and shoulders were down, and he kept on sighing. There were no tears coming out, but the fury in his heart kept on growing. And it was greater than the sadness that he was feeling at the moment. He touched Damascusâ shoulder, hoping that he would still feel a bit of life from his former friend. But there was nothing. The body in front of him was lifeless. He stood up and without saying anything or looking at Lyca, he headed to the stairs leading down. His face was dark, and his eyes were glaring. There was also small lighting surrounding his body and fists. And the most notable of all was that the Aetherlock was shining brightly.Lyca and the two knights could feel Jakeâs fury, and that stopped them from saying anything. They just followed the Archmage until they reached the final floor of that dungeon. It was a long pathway and on the sides were also cages filled with ominous creatures in Eldramoria. However, the floor contained
