Chapter 419 - Purple Thunder Embodiment
Chapter 419 – Purple Thunder Embodiment
"Let's go!" Lawrend shouted.
He continued flying inside with his entourage following behind him.
The guards could only watch as they entered the city, flying. The citizens down below also immediately noticed them with the huge size of Clova.
"What's that?"
"It's a really huge monster bird!"
"Where are the guards!?"
Clova's large size made the citizens below panic. They thought that the monsters from Undrasil Forest were invading them.
"I, Lawrend Horiel, have come to take the throne of the Undrasil Kingdom's King!" Lawrend shouted.
"What!?"
"Is he insane!?"
"Lawrend Horiel!???"
"Isn't he the Prime Student!?"
Lawrend headed directly to the academy. Along the way, he kept repeating that sentence. After all, the capital city was quite large.
Even if he used his mana, it wouldn't be able to propagate his voice everywhere.
Lawrend's maids looked down at the citizens below with cold eyes. This resulted in them giving a powerful and deterring aura to the people below.
Aside from the fact that Lawrend was a powerful High Mage with the power of an Arch Mage, they felt that his maids didn't fare any worse.
After a few minutes of flying, Lawrend's group quickly arrived at the academy.
"Sir Purple Thunder, I want your help," Lawrend shouted to the ground.
"My help?"
Verkoli rose up from his building. He stared at Lawrend with squinted eyes.
He didn't receive the news yet, but he could tell that something was off. Lawrend wasn't supposed to be flying in the air at the capital city.
"I want to be the king of this kingdom," Lawrend said in a solemn voice.
"…"
Verkoli furrowed his eyebrows.
"Why?"
"Because…"
It was at this moment that Lawrend realized that he didn't really want to be the king of the Undrasil Kingdom. He mostly did it because his maids wanted him to be one.
For him, there wasn't really any point in becoming the king. Well, there may be benefits, but it doesn't matter to him.
"You don't know?"
Verkoli was surprised. He had never seen someone not know their purpose when they're about to do something.
"Master deserves to be the king of this kingdom!" Humility said and raised her hand.
Verkoli turned his head to her and was beyond shocked.
"Princess Kasina!?"
"This kingdom doesn't deserve my father to be the king," Humility said coldly.
"Princess, what are you doing!? The 10,000-year heritage of the Undrasil Kingdom will be destroyed in your hands!" Verkoli exclaimed.
"Heh. It won't be! Master's bloodline will make it more amazing than currently! You also don't have to worry. Master already impregnated me."
Humility smiled sweetly and rubbed her stomach as she remembered the child inside her stomach.
Verkoli's cheeks twitched. He was seeing something he never saw in Humility. A sort of craziness that lunatics had.
"You're crazy! What about your father? And your brothers? Are you going to kill them?"
Verkoli wanted to rationalize with her. He didn't want to kill Lawrend as much as possible. He was the greatest talent that he had ever seen.
"Hehehehehe… I would kill my brothers if they still stayed. We already warned them. As for my father, I hate him! I would rather kill him!" Humility shouted crazily.
"Y-You… Lawrend! Convince her!"
As he had no more choice, Verkoli could only rely on Lawrend. As her supposed Master, he should be able to.
"I'm not going to do that, Sir Verkoli. Now that I remember it, I do have children to take care of. Giving them the kingdom is not a bad gift," Lawrend replied as he slowly shook his head.
"Lawrend… Are you really going to fight me!?" Verkoli asked with gritted teeth.
'Please, Lawrend! Don't make me do this!'
Verkoli was torn. He wished that he wouldn't make the wrong choice.
"Sir Verkoli, I ask you to join us. The preparations are already in place. It's too late to stop it now."
Lawrend extended his hand to him.
"Lawrend! One last time! ARE YOU FIGHTING ME!?" Verkoli shouted.
His body arced with bright purple snakes of electricity. The lightning mana in the surroundings gathered around him and bolstered his strength.
"Sir Verkoli, I respect you a lot. If you hadn't helped my maids, they wouldn't be so powerful right now. Because of that, I won't kill you."
Lawrend readied himself. His golden lightning mana flowed through his mana pathways and made his body glow a bright golden light. From afar, he looked like a golden buddha.
"LAWREND!!!"
Verkoli disappeared and appeared at the very top of the sky.
The air around him turned heavy. Clouds covered the sky and lightning mana filled the sky.
At this moment, any mage of the other elements would feel a decrease in the power of their spells.
"Master, be careful! It's his signature Purple Thunder Embodiment spell!" Ella shouted.
As Verkoli's disciple, she knew a lot about his spell.
"Ella!? Why are you betraying me too?!" Verkoli shouted in anger.
He doesn't understand why. He did so many things for them, but they're all turning against him.
"What Master wants, I will do," Ella replied resolutely.
As someone who felt indebted to Lawrend, she would do anything for him. Even if it means betraying her Teacher.
"LAWRENDDDDD!!"
Verkoli's body turned into a purple color while Lawrend was golden. The two of them looked like colorful deities floating in the sky.
All of the citizens in the city were looking up. They were nervous. The lightning mana in the air was stifling.
*BOOM!*
A powerful bolt of purple lightning dropped on top of Verkoli's head.
And then, using the momentum of the lightning strike, he rapidly sped to Lawrend's direction like a real bolt of lightning. In his wake, he left a trail of lightning.
A purple energy lightning sword appeared in Verkoli's hand, and he pointed it to Lawrend.
The world suddenly slowed down. Lawrend saw everything around him like a movie in slow motion. He saw the anger on Verkoli's face as he charged towards him.
And then, it all suddenly sped up again.
