The Wizard World - Chapter 312

Chapter 312
‘Angele must have his reasons . ’ There was a gentle smile on Vivian’s face . She would have doubted the words if they did not come from her only son’s mouth .

‘I should probably ask why he sent me this message, but I’m certain that he is just worried about me…’

"Umm…Master Vivian . I’m sorry but can I have a word with you?" A deep female voice came from behind .

Vivian leaned to the side and looked down; she was still sitting on the giant’s shoulder .

"What’s the matter? We’re on our way to our destination . We can talk after we finish them off . " Frowning, she communicated with her through energy particles .

"I’m afraid we can’t, master . " A female wizard in a long white robe shook her head .

"The urgent message says that your son took a birth flower away from the people of Glay . Right now, he is being pursued by them…" The wizard looked speechless .

The smile disappeared from Vivian’s face .

"Angele…This kid…" Vivian gritted her teeth, but she was not sure what she should say .

"Retreat, everyone! We can finish them off later!" She raised her right hand and shouted .

"Come with me, my elite team! We need to go to the Glay’s territory . "

*****************************

In the forest between the Bass River and the snowy volcano .

The white sunlight pierced through the gaps between the leaves and illuminated on the people fighting between the trees .

There were five people in brown leather armor suits surrounding a young man in a long black robe .

"How dare you destroy our birth flowers! We are the Glays . I think you know how valuable those flowers are to our race," a man at the front spoke in a deep voice .

There was a white lightning-shaped scar on his skin which looked strange and terrifying .

Angele was speechless . He was not sure how to respond to that man .

He was just collecting unknown plants using the chip while leaving the forest .

He found a wheel-sized black flower and according to the result of the chip's analysis, the pistil of the flower would increase the success rate of concocting a Poison Cloud Potion . Angele decided to collect the pistil right away .

However, the black flower died right after the pistil was removed . This scene was witnessed by several Glay guards that were just patrolling their territory as usual .

That was the reason why Angele was being chased down .

Angele wanted to fight back, but the chip warned him about the presence of more than one formal wizard in the Glay’s patrol team and he decided to retreat . The targets were not in the effective range of Zero and their ranks could not be determined .

The Glays were living beings that looked like human beings and lived around the Bass River . He acquired the information through a conversation with Liv, but she never described the appearance of the birth flower to him . Angele was not sure if he could solve the problem by himself, so he decided to contact Vivian immediately .

He knew the birth flower's basic information and its importance to the Glay race . It was what helped them to reproduce .

Glays did not reproduce sexually . Instead, their offspring were born from these birth flowers .

There were two types of birth flowers: the ones used by females had the shape of a penis and the ones used by males looked like vaginas . Angele had unwittingly destroyed the one that should be used by males .

For the Glays, losing one flower was akin to losing one newborn offspring .

Glays were collectively known to be great fighters . In terms of populace, there were more females than males . All of them needed to have an intercourse with the flowers, but they did not need to worry too much about their babies . Majority of Glays were talented and could easily be trained to wizard apprentices . Even becoming formal wizards was an easy feat for them .

Within the territory of the Glay race, birth flowers were being treated like holy grails . It was likely that there was a Glay offspring being nurtured in the flower that had been killed off by Angele . That was the main reason why the guards pursuing Angele were completely furious .

This was common knowledge for the inhabitants around their territory . Angele was too focused on the effect of the flower's pistil that he forgot to check if the black flower was a birth flower .

The problem lay in the fact that his behavior had been witnessed by the patrol team . Otherwise, there would not be so much commotion .



Angele's speed was much faster than most members of the patrol team, yet five of the stronger Glays still caught up with him and surrounded him .

"I can return the pistil to you . I apologize as I did not know that this was a birth flower . Can't we end this matter peacefully?" Angele questioned .

"Think about it . What will you do if I just killed your son?" the leader answered in a deep hoarse voice .

"Do we have to fight? I can offer some rare materials to you . " Angele was trying his best to prevent a battle from happening .

"Kneel before me and then we can talk . " The man sneered .

"Well, I was trying to solve the problem peacefully yet you’re not listening . " Angele raised his right hand creating a two-meter-long sword in his hand .

The tip of the sword slowly turned red and the temperature around his body increased rapidly .

"There are five of us!" The five men drew their daggers at the same time and red lines glimmered on the blades .

******************************

In an area that was fifty kilometers away from Angele’s location .

Vivian and about ten elites that were equipped with black armor suits were advancing to the Glays' territory at full speed .

"I have already sent a message to the chief of the Glays, master Mira, but I'm not sure if she will read it in time . " A female wizard behind Vivian communicated through energy particles .

Vivian grimaced . "Mira is my friend but destroying a birth flower is most likely an unforgivable act . The Glay race is already having trouble with the decaying population . The Glays will not listen to her orders even if she tries to save Angele . "

"Master Mira is a close friend of yours, yet she will not help?" a woman in a black armor suit asked .

"I'm not sure what's going to happen then . There are only about four hundred of birth flowers in the Glays' territory, which they have spent years cultivating in order for those mysterious flowers to grow . Losing one flower is the same as losing one baby . Mira needs to listen to her people's opinion . No one survives after destroying a birth flower . " There was a serious expression on Vivian's face . "I must meet her personally and apologize to her," she added .

"Glays usually do a good job guarding their birth flowers . Something is fishy here . . . How did Angele destroy one so easily?" The woman looked confused .



"I don't know…Perhaps the patrol team had just finished their shift . " Vivian shook her head . "This little bastard…I just found him not so long ago and he has already brought me a great deal of trouble…"

Angele was giving Vivian a headache, yet she did not sound mad .

***********************************

*Clank*

Angele blocked the strike from a dagger with his longsword .

He slightly leaned to the left and blocked another dagger with the handle .

Five blurry shadows surrounded him moving around at full speed . They were trying to attack Angele from all angles .

Angele’s Agility and Strength were high enough to dodge or block all the attacks .

Although his agility was over 11, the Glay people were still moving faster than him . It seemed that speed was their talent . Angele could see the long blurry shadow behind their bodies . The five Glays’ strength level was low, so they were having a hard time breaking Angele’s defense .

Angele learned more about the situation after reading the message sent by Vivian . He knew that destroying the flower was his fault and he did not want the situation to get worse .

Vivian told him that there was still a chance that the incident could be solved peacefully .

If the Glays requested backup and their team captains came, Angele would have a hard time surviving the fight without activating the signet in the center of his chest .

However, he decided to trust Vivian’s words .

Angele kept retreating as he blocked the attacks from the Glays . He was slowly moving toward Vivian’s location . The fight had already lasted for hours . He could not find a better way to leave the area . Good thing was that Vivian was advancing to his current location at full speed and he only needed to stay calm .

"Stop him! He’s trying to flee!" one of the Glays shouted . Angele was trying to find a gap from their formation .

He knitted his eyebrows after hearing one of them say that .



After scanning his opponents with Zero, Angele knew that he could kill them easily as they were just weak formal wizards . Their only advantage was the speed .

Their attributes were lower than that of a rank 1 wizard's at the Gas stage . Angele would have killed them if Vivian did not send him the message .

‘I should try to escape and regroup with Vivian . ’ Angele narrowed his eyes and looked carefully at the five Glays' formation .

Blue lights flashed in front of his eyes .

*Clank Clank*

Their weapons clashed again .

The burning tip of the sword blocked two oncoming daggers and caught his opponents off guard .

Angele rushed out of the encirclement formed by the five like an arrow and disappeared into the bushes .

"Don’t let him escape!" a man shouted .

The five jumped into the bush and ran toward the direction Angele was last seen .

The area became silent again .

Several minutes later, a tall man jumped out of the bushes from the other side .

It was a muscular bald man with dark skin .

Moreover, his head was covered with black needles wherein only the top half of the needles could be seen . The man almost looked like a criminal that just escaped the prison .

Several more people jumped out of the shrubs . All of them were people of Glay .

"Caren is still chasing after that man . " The bald man pointed in the direction where Angele had left . "Mitto, take several guards with you and utilize the shortcuts . This is our forest . It is impossible for that man to outrun us . "
