Outside of the Capital:
The crippled old man once again made sure that no back hand was left behind. This was one of the reasons why he had preferred to engage in close combat.
If the dark lord old man had tried a forbidden spell, the situation would have been different. Even for him, it could have been a headache to handle it.
Fortunately, he killed the dark lord old man before it's too late. Their confrontation has changed this small piece of barren terrain.
It won't be suitable for any kind of transportation in the near future. If the outside world knows about this secret confrontation they would be shocked to the core.
In a very long time, this country hadn't witnessed and heard of the duel between the Magic Lords. Any kind of large confrontation between the Magic Lords has potential to destroy the city of a Capital size.
After checking the crippled old man thought about Vincent Carey and decides to leave.
Beep!
Right at this moment, someone sends him a message. Seeing that the crippled old man checks the message.
Boom!
A monstrous coercion set off from his body. The force swept away everything close to him. The destroyed terrain becomes even more unrecognizable. There was no sign of green patches on the ground.
All the little known green trees are completely uprooted from the ground.
The crippled old man's eyes flashes with a murderous glint.
"What a sinister plot?" He said in a cold tone. The message was sent by the dean, describing the current situation of Vincent Carey and Galvin Martin.
The old man was right in his feelings earlier. He had felt bad despite suppressing the dark lord here. Little did he know that bad premonition comes from somewhere else.
"Which means the dark lord hadn't come alone. He had minions with him," A quick gleam flashes in his eyes.
He can understand the Dark Lord's intrusion in the arena building. Unless there is a Wizard of similar strength. No one can find the Dark Lord.
But what about the minions? He knows that the arena is highly secured; it's being patrolled by high-ranking wizards all the time.
For that he has to go back to the academy. Before going, he decided to investigate this place.
Seeing that the old man is checking the place. Galvin and the administration staff made the way for him.
The crippled old man saw the magic prints of the level-8 wizards left not long ago. Including the footprint of the Elder Galvin.
He can tell that those were the ones who attacked Vincent Carey.
The staff and others stood behind silently. They can tell that the old man was serious. They are patiently waiting for the news.
If Vincent Carey is still alive, then it's good news for everyone. If not then they have to stop the competition.
The old man landed in the deep pit. He saw the trace was cut off in the mid way. There was no magic print of Vincent Carey on the ground.
Which shows that he had disappeared in the mid way.
"How is it possible?" The old man's eyes flickered.
He is very familiar with the situation. Because the same thing had happened during the Adamont Canyon incident.
"Does he have any teleportation scroll with him?" The crippled old man said in his heart. Other than that, he couldn't explain the sudden disappearance.
The Adamont Canyon was slightly different. Because it was believed to have secret bass or ruin. But here in this place there is no place for such things.
After gaining some clarity in his thoughts, he looked towards everyone.
He said,"Don't leak the matter for the time being. There is a possibility that Vincent Carey is still alive. In case anyone asks, cover it as an accident."
Hearing that the administration staff looked at each other. They can only do it as he says. Even the level-8 Wizard Elder Galvin is being respectful towards the old man.
Which shows that the old man has high status in the Yellow River Academy. They don't want to offend him.
At this point of time, they have already extinguished those flames and saved the structures from the collapsing.
Then the staff left the place leaving behind the old man, Elder Galvin and Stella Glover.
