Chapter 15: Ambush!

"Uhn?! Isn't this kid supposed to be injured? He looks pretty okay to me!"One of the six figures said with confusion.

"Boss Kane, you are actually right. There's something suspicious about this guy. Even his injuries have healed up!"

Another stated with after observing Tron's healthy body. His upper body had thin lines of scars but that was all. There were no visible injuries.

"He must definitely have come across a Mage's inheritance in this forest!" a wretched servant with a large mole on the corner of his lip fervently spine.

Kane's eyes immediately lit up. If it was true that Tein managed to find a Mage's inheritance then his hope of passing the Servants exam would sky rocket.

Kane wasn't at all unfamiliar with encounters as he had also found a Dark arcanal book containing an alternative way to fully activate his magical cortex and open up his arcane pool with the lives of a hundred humans, and a few baby elf bones and some other unmentionable dark materials.

He successfully collected all the materials and was finally able to complete the ritual. However, the dark arcane book was incomplete and didn't give any explanations on the ritual to become a Mage.

Although he had become a acolyte through unnatural means, he still wanted to become a true mage.

Now that there was a possibility Tron has gained an inheritance of a Mage, how could he not be overwhelmed with greed?

However, he hid his fervant expression and greed in his heart and kept himself contained.

Tron released his grip on the tree and with a soft thump sound, he fell off the ten-meters tall tred. S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

His upper body flexed as his streamlined muscles that looked like the perfect sculpture of a Greek god trembled slightly.

Turning to face the group, he squinted his eyes and said, "What brings you guys all the way here, this night?"

"Some of the other servants reported that their food and /, clothes and money had all been stolen. Naturally, I have to investigate everyone righr?" Kane was indeed smart. He didn't day anything regarding the inheritance and put up a false sense of justice.

Tron chuckled. He could see the greed in the eyes of the group and their shock at his perfectly healed body.

They had come to a conclusion that he had fortuitous encountered and wish to covet what ever it was.

"I didn't want to disturb the supervisor and hence decided to investigate everyone myself. You're the only one we haven't investigated."

"Allow yourself to be taken and when we have investigated more, you will be released upon your innocence." Kane's gaze was heated as he spoke; it was clear that within it lurked an insatiable greed. There was a opportunity for him to become a mage, he would definitely struggle for it with all of his life.

"And you felt it necessary to track me all the way to the forest to question me?" Tron knew raised an eyebrow as he asked with a cold sneer.

"We should directly break his arms and legs, that way when we question him, he wouldn't be so smug..!" a tall servant spoke, his eyes gleaming maliciously at Tron.

"Hmm. You, take care of him" Kane racked his mind as he made a decision. To be frank, he was getting impatient. However, he was till skeptical because the Dean was the one who brought Tron to the Servant's manor, he had no idea what their relationship was but since his cortex had been shattered, there was no use for Tron.

When it came to things like lucky encounters, Kane would only feel comfortable when the item was in his hands.

"Hehe, I've been waiting a long time for this!" The tall figure smiled viciously.

He brought out a blade and sliced thumb. Immediately blood started flowing, he brought his bleeding thumb to his forehead and drew a rune with his blood, simultaneous mumbling a few words of incantations.

Tron brows rose in curiosity as he watched. In that instant, the rune on the man's forehead lit up with a bloody glow. The rune suddenly started moving on its own like a worms as they merged into the skin of the young man, disappearing within him.

"Zero-level spell: Physical Enhancement"

All of a sudden the man's face twisted and immediately turned savage as his muscles trembled and squirmed. His strength had received a massive boost, depending on the output of his mana. At this moment, his vitality was boundless he possess the strength of ten men!

"You're dead meat." The man's savage face twisted and he immediately turned to a blur and vanished.

With an inconceivable speed, he appeared before Tron.

The wind exploded as he punched directly at Tron's chest.

"BAM!"

The sounds of two heavy meat colliding resounded through the forest as shockwaves spread rapidly like ripples in a lake.

The others looked on with glee expecting Tron to be sent flying.

However, reality was much,uxh different.

At the last moment, Tron had actually grabbed the young man's fist with his palm. To him, the young man's speed was incredibly slow, it was almost too disappointing for Tron, making him uninterested in him.

He raised his leg and like a giant whip and struck out his feet against the servant's chest.

"BOOM!"

Shockwaves spread out and at the same time, a loud ka cha was heard. The servant's chest caved in and he was knocked flying several meters away. When he landed, the servants body rolled over several times, stopping at the feet of the other five.

He couldn't move anymore. Clearly, he was half dead.

"How strong!" Kane looked down and saw the servants chest had completely shattered as blood and foam spewed out of his mouth.

'Just what kind of fortune did he encounter that would give him such strength?'

The four other servants were immediately stunned. They didn't expect for Tron to be so strong he could even kill their fellow servant , a fellow zeeo - mage that had unlocked 40 % of his cortex in one strike. They began to hesitate.

"Kill him! Kill him and seize the inheritance. A mage's inheritance is not for a cripple like him
