2026-11-09 06:00:57The wizard tower that did not look very large from outside turned out to be humongous on the inside.
Carl looked around and managed to keep a straight face since he had seen this sort of magic within Bryant’s castle too.His gaze froze when he saw a gigantic steel cage next to him. A frightening monster was chained to the cage with thick steel chains.The monster was huge and stood on two legs. It had a round and protruding belly, threatening, long horns, bloodthirsty eye

Immediately after walking into the dark tunnel inside the wizard tower, Carl lost his balance for a second before realizing he was now at the entrance to the palace. He quickly realized that Raphael must have set up magic circles not only within the tower, but possibly throughout the palace and even the capital so as to limit the movement of people in and out of certain areas.While he was thinking about these things, he heard Dorothy's relieved voice. "Phew! We made it out safely after all… Irina, I was so afraid that we wouldn't be able to make it out alive just now. I was really too naïve to think that my evidence alone would be sufficient to uproot the Romarins. We nearly lost our own lives in the process instead."Carl shook his head slightly and looked a little depressed as well. "The palace is not a place that cares about truth and justice. It only cares about capability and profit.""You're right, Carl." Grand Duke Karolin had a calm look in his ey
Chapter 141
Although Grand Duke Romarin turned out to be a Sunlight Knight as well, Grand Duke Karolin seemed more powerful. After his lightning web had been broken by Grand Duke Romarin's sun, he made a sun rise from behind him as well.The two suns in the air clashed again and again, filling the tower with a blinding brilliance. However, when Carl compared the two, it seemed like Grand Duke Karolin's sun was bigger and stronger.Boom! Boom! Boom! The collision of two imposing forces nearly destroyed everything in their way. The shock waves caused by the collisions turned into mighty winds that blew through the entire tower, making the hearts of everyone palpitate in fear.Carl also went into a daze watching the two grand dukes fight. A fight between two Sunlight Knights turned out to be just as destructive and exhilarating as a fight between two mages.He sighed quietly to himself. Unfortunately, he could not become part of such a battle since he was still too green. He wo

Raphael was involved now, so Kane did not dare to do anything rash. He gritted his teeth and glared furiously at Carl. "Carl, how dare you slander Heath like that! Are you trying to become enemies with the Romarins?"Joel scoffed as he stood next to Carl. After glistening moons flew up from behind his back, the pressure exerted on Kane increased manyfold. "Kane, we've barely seen anything of this footage and none of us know what's going on yet. How are you so sure that Carl is slandering Heath?"What Joel said made sense. Everyone turned to look at Kane, suspicion clear in their eyes. Kane's expression flinched several times but he could not answer Joel at all.Meanwhile, the Recording Fly was not affected by the tension below at all and continued replaying the footage it had captured of Heath and Colin talking to one another. Their voices could be clearly heard by everyone in the tower, making their faces pale as they gasped in shock.It never crossed any of the
Chapter 139
The fact that King Harold had personally invited Carl to become one of his loyal subjects was surprising, since the king normally left such matters to his subordinates. Yet, it seemed only natural for the king to do so. That giant beast from the Abyss was valuable beyond measure and as the person with the formula that could turn this monster into treasure, Carl was most certainly worthy to be called upon by the king himself.Besides, the king had already said before this that the one who won the apothecary competition would not only receive a large amount of cash, but would also be conferred a title. Harold was just going through with what he had promised.Everyone could already imagine what would happen next. Carl would pledge his allegiance to the king, be accorded the title of baronet and end this competition beautifully with an elaborate celebration banquet within the palace.Of course, there were some who exchanged shifty glances. They, too, needed the drug that

Besides Joel, everyone in the tower was shocked that Carl wanted Joel to drink the contents of the bottle. They even wondered if Carl had gone mad. How could he ask Joel to drink something like that?Joel was not only the general of the royal guards, but he was also a member of one of Tooda Kingdom’s five most powerful families and he was also a formidable Moonlight Knight. Doing anything that might offend or hurt a man of such high standing would result in disastrous consequences.In fact, immediately after Carl made this request, Joel had gotten angry. He glared murderously at Carl for an instant and genuinely felt offended.However, two seconds later, he calmed back down again. He was being watched by so many spectators and competitors, so he could not back out of this, regardless of why Carl had made this request. At the same time, as long as Carl had not truly gone mad, Joel did not think that the young man would ask him to do anything that would prove detr
Chapter 137
Carl observed the reaction for a while and felt that Phineas’s line of logic was actually the right one. Phineas had made an extremely powerful poison, which threatened to break the structure of the blood down. That was why the evil energy inside the blood was fighting back so hard.However, the harder the blood fought, the more it proved that the Phineas’s poison was actually effective. Before long, the blood had been broken down and disappeared, leaving nothing but the poison behind in the bowl.Lawrence’s face lit up and he smiled brightly as he said, “Master Phineas, you’re a true expert! You are definitely going to…” He caught sight of Bradley and cleared his throat halfway through his sentence before changing his choice of words, “It’s quite probable that you’ll become the champion!”The two foreigner apothecaries who had been the winners of the first batch looked disappointed. Phineas’s po
