Chapter 673: Kleis’ Demise I*

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The enormous three-headed dragon stretched its wings and sped toward Fog City. Its brutal and ferocious aura overwhelmed everyone. The three-headed dragon was undoubtedly a savage beast.

Nevertheless, Kleis’ eyes could only focus on the figure standing on the back of the three-headed dragon. This figure had appeared in his mind many, many times, but every single time it had been accompanied by the memory of his humiliating defeat.

“Merlin!”

Kleis kept his eyes on Merlin as he shouted. Kleis’ expression, which had remained unfazed when he was fighting against over a dozen Great Wizard and a powerful alchemy Monster just now, actually turned solemn once he saw Merlin.

“Who is this person? Why does Kleis look so wary of him?”

Wizard Ian asked intriguingly. He only paid attention to the northern Spell Caster world and Ozmu, so he was not sure who this Spell Caster riding on the back of the three-headed dragon was.

The other Great Wizards also exchanged blank looks, obviously not knowing the identity of the three-headed dragon or Merlin.

“Respected Great Wizards, I might know some information…”

It was a mere Seventh-level Spell Caster who decided to speak up in a cautious tone.

“Hmm? Tell us quickly, who is this person? Someone who could tame the legendary three-headed dragon and make Kleis so wary must not be an average Joe,” Wizard Ian asked hurriedly. The other Great Wizards also turned their attention towards this Seventh-level Spell Caster.

“I’ve been to Subzero Snowfield before and interacted with some of the Spell Casters there. Not too long ago, I’ve heard news of a new Spell Caster named Merlin. He was actually a Spell Caster from the Dark Magic Region, but had disappeared for a few decades. When he re-emerged, he had managed to tame the three-headed dragon and return to the Dark Magic Region. Additionally, he led the Dark Magic Region to defeat the other two major factions in a single swoop, thereby unifying the entire Subzero Snowfield. There is only one three-headed dragon. Unless there is another three-headed dragon we don’t know of, I’m afraid this Spell Caster must be Wizard Merlin.”

Upon hearing the detailed explanation of this Seventh-level Spell Caster, these Great Wizards felt enlightened.

“The Dark Magic Region… That’s right, we’ve investigated Kleis’ background before this. Kleis used to be a Spell Caster from a small Spell Caster organization in the southern Spell Caster world, the Dark Magic Region. Then, he betrayed the Dark Magic Region and defected to Ozmu before finally becoming the First Elder of Ozmu! This Dark Magic Region actually gave birth to two prodigies. Since Kleis had betrayed the Dark Magic Region, surely this Wizard Merlin from the Dark Magic Region has come specifically for Kleis.”

A spirited look appeared on Wizard Ian’s face once again. Merlin’s appearance seemed to have given the Seven Major Spell Caster organizations a glimmer of hope.

“The three-headed dragon might be powerful, but is it able to fight Kleis? I even suspect that Kleis’ Spatial Demon Ability may have completely exceeded the level of a preeminent Great Wizard, and is actually comparable to the fabled Great Legends that only appeared in the golden era of Spell Casters!”

One of the Great Wizards voiced out his speculation.

“Absolutely impossible. Kleis is definitely not a Great Legend! According to the ancient scrolls, all the Great Legends were able to consolidate a Maxim. Kleis may be powerful, but he did not consolidate a Maxim, so it is impossible for him to be a Great Legend!”

The Great Wizards of the Seven Major Spell Caster organizations were well-learned. Naturally, they knew the characteristics of a Great Legend. Nonetheless, despite the fact that Kleis was not a Great Legend, he was actually very close to being one. Even the Seven Major Spell Caster organizations would not be able to defeat Kleis.

“This time, we must help this Wizard Merlin no matter what the price is!”

Wizard Ian decided firmly. This Merlin who appeared out of nowhere seemed to be quite formidable and was able to make Kleis so nervous. Thus, he must not be any simple person. Perhaps, he was the only hope for the Seven Major Spell Caster organizations.

Once Merlin fell into a disadvantageous situation, they would go all out to help him defeat Kleis.

Both Merlin and Kleis simply stood in silence. Neither of them paid any attention to their surroundings.

“Protect Yulais, and go to the back.”

Merlin patted the head of the three-headed dragon gently and gestured for it to leave.

The three-headed dragon growled softly and fixed its eyes on Kleis with a guarded expression. The three-headed dragon could sense the threatening aura rolling off Kleis and knew that this battle did not belong to it.

Therefore, together with Yulais, the three-headed dragon flew behind Merlin and waited quietly.

Merlin walked toward Kleis step by step. This was the first time he saw Kleis since coming back to the Glorious Land. He had thought that Kleis was merely a preeminent Great Wizard and did not expect Kleis to be even stronger than that. He had far surpassed the level of a preeminent Great Wizard. He was the mightiest existence in the Void Zone who’s just shy of becoming a Legend!

Even during the most glorious of times for the Spell Casters, birthing forth such an existence was unimaginable. It was even more unheard of to become the mightiest existence aside from a Legend in the Void Zone. The chances of this happening were equivalent to discovering civilization-level prodigies.

The fallen Glorious Land actually managed to give birth to the mightiest existence who was just a level away from being a Legend. Perhaps even Arcane Wizard Setoh would not expect such a thing.

“Merlin, you’ve finally shown up! I was planning to visit the Dark Magic Region in Subzero Snowfield once I’m done with the northern Spell Caster world.”

Kleis had also seemed to calm down. The two of them were chatting as if they were old friends.

“Start now, Kleis! You call yourself the most powerful contender in the Spell Caster world. I’m extremely curious just to see how powerful you actually are.”

Merlin’s lips tugged up into a sardonic smirk.

“You’ll find out soon enough!”

Kleis’ body began to emit multi-colored rays. The elements around them gathered in a frenzy, illuminating the entire sky with a colorful radiance.

The multi-colored Wizard Heart!

It was not Merlin’s first time seeing it. He was painfully aware of how difficult it was to consolidate the multi-colored Wizard Heart. Even he himself had only managed to combine the Four-Elemental Wizard Heart and had not succeeded in combining the multi-colored Wizard Heart.

“Spikes of Destruction!”

Kleis reached out with his hand. Endless elements converge into millions of sharp spears and rained down sadistically on Merlin.

This was not an ordinary spell, but Kleis’ Five-Elemental spell 1 . Every single spear was packed with a force that was comparable to a single strike from a peak Great Wizard.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Merlin’s expression did not waver. A layer of white light automatically appeared before him and converged into a huge shield that could protect Merlin.

The rain-like spell attacks seemed to be drowning Merlin.

“Fire!”

Another brutal fiery rain fell from the sky. The terrifying temperature was almost unbearable to the Great Wizards who were present. Kleis’ control of spells had reached such a high level that any spell he wielded could detonate a huge force.

Next, a fearsome chill appeared and encapsulated Merlin.

Even Kleis himself might not be able to withstand such a barrage of spell attacks.

“Merlin, I had lost to your Darkness Eye back then, but this time, you’ll die under my spells. I am the true victor!”

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Kleis’ lips. However, that smile froze on his lips soon enough. This was because Merlin’s aura was completely unharmed despite being inflicted with the vicious attacks of his spells.

“How is this possible? You’ve not become a Great Wizard. How can you resist my spell attack?”

Kleis could not imagine that Merlin was able to rely on spells to withstand his Five-Elemental Wizard Heart.

“My turn!”

Merlin extended his palm and grabbed onto something in the air lightly. In an instant, Kleis felt his body tightened as if his entire surroundings were bound by an invisible force.

At the same time, a huge fireball was amassing slowly in the sky. The frightening aura it radiated made even Kleis feel uneasy.

Merlin had far surpassed Kleis in terms of spell power. After all, Kleis was only the mightiest existence below a Legend. Merlin’s Four-Elemental Wizard Heart, on the other hand, was able to defeat even a Great Legend.

“Haha, I won’t die. Merlin, you’ve forgotten that I’m also a powerful Spatial Wizard. As long as space exists, no one can kill me!”

Kleis’s face turned shrewd. With a violent shrug, his figure stepped into a subspace passage that appeared out of thin air.

Merlin frowned. He was unable to detect Kleis’ aura. Spatial Wizards truly had the unparalleled advantage aside from when they were in in the Void Zone.

Whiz.

Suddenly, a flame sword appeared out of nowhere and flew towards Merlin.

Merlin did not even turn his head. A shield converged behind him, and he had easily deflected the stealthy attack.

Bam!

Merlin had consolidated a Fiery Palm and clawed viciously in one direction. Immediately, space shattered and a black shadow flashed before him. Subsequently, Kleis appeared on the other side of him.

“Hmph, Merlin, as long as there is space, a Spatial Wizard cannot die. Haha, I will let you die a slow, fearful death…”

Kleis’ figure flashed and disappeared again. As a Spatial Wizard, he was able to travel via subspace. As long as space existed, Kleis’ abilities were undefeatable to anyone below a Legend. It was a frustrating issue to deal with indeed.

Nevertheless, Merlin was not the least flustered.

A stern glint flashed across his eyes. His Mind Power extended outwards, and the elements rapidly gathered around him.

“Spatial Wizards can’t be killed? I don’t believe it…”

Once Merlin’s Mind Power had identified an area a few miles from where he was, he stretched out his hand. The entire sky was then filled with ferocious flames, blazing and burning angrily.

“Shatter now!”

Merlin growled under his breath. His Wizard Heart which could be compared to a Great Wizard had then released a terrifying wave of power at the instant.

Boom!

The space within those few miles shattered like a fragile mirror.

“Space is shattered? No one can shatter space other than a Legend!”

Once space was shattered, an unsightly figure was revealed. Kleis’ entire body had become incomparably weak and was staring at Merlin with incredulity. The ability to shatter space across a few miles was no longer within the realms of a Great Wizard.
