Chapter 565: Tribe

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After a few hours, an old man who did not seem human, with wrinkles on his face like old bark, and looked extremely ugly, flew over to Merlin by walking on air.

“Oh? He’s here. He’s a Mind Power Master who had formed a Mind Heart!”

Merlin lightly closed his eyes, and immediately opened them again. He already felt that the old and ugly man in front of him was a Seventh-level Mind Power Master. His Mind Power had already started to slowly turn emptiness into reality, and began to interfere in the material world enough to support him in walking on air.

Unfortunately, Merlin also did not sense any Elemental fluctuation from the old man. He was not a Spell Caster either!

The old man flew toward Merlin and Wizard Luce. However, after carefully sensing Merlin and Luce, the man’s expression instantly changed.

“You’re a foreign tribe!”

“Swoosh.”

As the old man spoke, the gazes of the people around all fixed themselves on Merlin and Luce. There was a hint of alarm and fear in their expressions.

“A foreign tribe? How are we the foreign tribe? What’s more, do we even look like foreign tribes?”

Merlin asked calmly with a collected expression. He also did not know why the old man made such a judgment.

“Haha, if you two aren’t from a foreign tribe, how would you be able to walk on air without using Mind Power? Only the foreign tribes have such an ability! Besides, some foreign tribes are cunning and capricious, and their powers are odd and bizarre, so it’s not strange at all if they know how to change their appearances to look like us… Speak, what’s your purpose in coming to our Gigula Tribe?”

The old man sneered. He had already put up his guard, and was prepared to attack.

“Mind Power?”

Merlin seemed to faintly understand something. Then, he stopped his spell, and used pure Mind Power to gradually support his body and float in the air.

Furthermore, that huge Mind Power was like a storm, washing over everyone present.

“What? What a strong Mind Power!”

“That’s not the Seventh-level. That’s definitely not a Seventh-level Mind Power Master. He might be an Eight-level or even a Ninth-level Mind Power Master!”

Feeling Merlin’s vast and boundless Mind Power, everyone’s face changed slightly. This was genuine Mind Power, which was something that was impossible for foreign tribes to possess.

“You’re really one of us! Which tribe did you two come from?”

After confirming that Merlin was not from a foreign tribe, the old man exhaled deeply in relief. As long as they were not from a foreign tribe, there would be no problem. If they were a foreign tribe, and had exposed their identities, they would never leave alive. The ferocity and cruelty of the foreign tribes were obvious, and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

“Tribe? The place we come from is a little complicated. Do you know about Spell Casters?”

“Huh?”

When Merlin mentioned “Spell Casters”, a strange light flashed in the old man’s eyes, and a faint expression of excitement appeared on his face.

“Could you two be Spell Casters?”

The old man breathed, and asked carefully after combining the differences he had seen in Merlin and Luce.

Merlin and Luce glanced at each other. It seemed that this old man knew about Spell Casters. They wanted to quickly know the situation, so they nodded. “Yes, we’re Spell Casters. We’ve just arrived here, and don’t understand what’s going on!”

Merlin could reveal their true identities because he did not feel any threat in this place. Although this old man was a Seventh-level Mind Power Master, both Merlin and Luce would be able to easily destroy him.

According to the other party’s previous comments, a Seventh-level and above Mind Power Master in their tribe were extremely rare. Thus, the entire tribe would not bring much trouble to Merlin and Luce.

Since there was no threat, Merlin did not have too many worries. The most important thing now was to understand what was going on.

“Hiss.”

The old man gasped upon hearing Merlin’s acknowledgment. However, a trace of excitement appeared in his eyes, and he said in a shaky voice, “You two are the first Spell Casters to arrive in the Slothful Beast world in eight hundred years! Quick, quick, quick, come with me. We’re saved, haha!”

The old man threw his head back in laughter. His old, bark-like face, shook incessantly, making him look extremely sinister and frightening.

“What exactly is going on?”

Merlin and Luce both became alert.

“If you two really are Spell Casters, then that’s great! Come, follow me back to my tribe. You’ll naturally understand everything when you reach there.”

The old man refused to say, and Merlin and Luce nodded their heads. With Merlin’s current strength now, as long as he was careful, ordinary dangers would not pose any threat to him.

“Alright, we’ll go with you.”

Merlin and Luce followed after the old man, and flew in the air toward the distance.

Along the way, the three people were silent. Merlin only knew that the old man was called Elder Foba, who was the Seventh-level Mind Power Master Elder in the Gigula Tribe. He was one of the highest-ranking people in the tribe.

Flying ahead, they could see some spaces that were annihilated by Spatial Windstorms, and were slowly recovering. Merlin could not help but ask, “Elder Foba, aren’t you all afraid of the Spatial Windstorm which had just occurred?”

“Spatial Windstorm? There are several Spatial Windstorms happening per year, so we’ve gotten used to it. Besides, we’re all prepared for the occurrence of a Spatial Windstorm, but we don’t have preparations for other disasters. The people in the Slothful Beast world are decreasing, and on the contrary, some foreign tribes have been increasing…”

Elder Foba stopped saying anything more because they had reached an assembly spot. They could see flat land, and even castles in the distance.

Castles, rivers, land… All these made Merlin feel as if he had returned to Blackwater City. However, he was very clear that this was not Blackwater City, and simply had a similar style to Blackwater City.

Or perhaps it had a style similar to the Molta Empire.

“Elder Foba has returned. How was it? Did you encounter any foreign tribes?”

“Elder Foba, did you find anything good after the Spatial Windstorm passed?”

Several people approached Elder Foba to give their greetings. Most of the people here were dressed in animal hide skirts, and there was only a handful who wore coarse hemp robes like Elder Foba. Merlin could only see a couple of those people at a glance.

It seemed that those who could wear coarse hemp clothing had a certain status in the Gigula Tribe.

“Wizard Merlin, Wizard Luce, please come this way. The other three Elders of the tribe are already waiting for you two.”

Merlin nodded, and followed Foba into a simple and unadorned castle.

“Elder Foba! About the news you sent back earlier, have the Spell Casters from the outside world really arrived?”

They saw three similarly aged old men immediately after entering the castle.

“Elders, these two are Wizard Merlin and Wizard Luce who have just arrived in the Slothful Beast world!”

Foba pointed at Merlin and Luce behind him, and three Mind Powers immediately enveloped Merlin and Luce.

Merlin frowned. This method of directly using Mind Power to probe was incredibly vulgar. If this was the Spell Caster world, it would be very likely to cause conflict. Usually, it would just be a gentle sweep, and nothing more.

However, these three Elders had no intention of withdrawing their Mind Power but carefully checked both of them up and down.

“Hmph!”

Merlin snorted softly. His Mind Power gave a violent jolt, and directly shook off the three Mind Powers. This contact also let him realize that the three Elders’ Mind Powers were similar to that of Foba’s. The strongest of them was only slightly stronger than Foba.

“What a strong Mind Power!”

The three Elders were stunned but then became even more excited. A white-haired elder asked softly, “Wizard Merlin, Wizard Luce, what level Spell Casters are you two in the Spell Caster world? Seventh-level? Eighth-level? Ninth-level? Or perhaps you’re powerful Great Wizards?”

“You seem very familiar with Spell Casters.”

A strange glint appeared in Merlin’s eyes. They were no traces of Elemental fluctuations on their bodies at all, so they were not Spell Casters, but they knew quite a lot about Spell Casters. It seemed that they must have some means of obtaining this knowledge.

“I’m a Seventh-level Spell Caster, and Wizard Luce here is a Ninth-level Spell Caster!”

Merlin said while smiling. Although what he said was the truth, in reality, Wizard Luce was far inferior to Merlin in terms of strength. However, since they were in a strange place now, even if the entire Gigula Tribe was not a threat to Merlin and Luce, they still had to be careful, and not expose all the details.

Merlin could also use his identity as a “Seventh-level Spell Caster” to temporarily hide some strength.

Luce also knew Merlin’s thoughts and nodded, tacitly approving.

“Ninth-level Spell Caster. You’re a ninth-level Spell Caster, second only to Great Wizards!”

The two of them exclaimed in shock. Their eyes stared at Merlin and Luce, which let Merlin feel slightly strange. Their gazes were too “bare”.

“Could you two release a spell?”

After a long moment, the three Elders had calmed down, and made another request.

“Release a spell?”

That was incredibly easy. Although Merlin did not understand why these people valued “Spell Casters” so much, he could also faintly feel that in their eyes, Spell Casters were extremely important.

“Whiz.”

Merlin shot a small fireball which floated in the air. Since there were no Elements in this world, Merlin had only released the weakest Zero-level Spell to reduce the cost of Magic Power.

“He’s really a Spell Caster. That’s a genuine spell!”

Seeing this fireball, the Elders no longer had any doubts about Merlin and Luce’s identities as Spell Casters.

Merlin and Luce were full of questions. After satisfying the Elders’ curiosity and proving that they were “Spell Casters”, Merlin finally opened his mouth to ask, “Elders, we’ve just arrived at this place, so we have many questions that need answers.”

Elder Foba also waved his hand. “Wizard Merlin, you don’t have to ask. We’ll naturally tell you anything. Previously, we had to confirm your identities. Now that it’s confirmed, there are some things that no longer need to be hidden.”

Elder Foba started to speak frankly, slowly lifting the veil of this strange world for Merlin and Luce.
