Chapter 1325 Surprise
Emery was currently at a complete loss; he was distraught as his eyes were glued to the empty spot where the console had been.
What came next was a sudden distortion of space near him and the figure of Grand Magus Zenonia coming out of it.
“You think I don’t know what you are trying to do? There is no way to reverse the spell now.”
After saying those words, she made a small movement with her hand that caused the four half-blood magus that were supposed to be fighting Olivier and the others to appear right next to her. Needless to say, the fight was stopped by her actions.
It was also at this moment that Grand Magus Yvere returned back to the hall. The old grand magus didn’t look that well with his pale face and traces of blood on his lips; it was clear that he was unable to hold her down in the end.
Staring at the female grand magus, he said, “Zenonia why? Why are you doing this?”
“Why?” With a little smile she said “It’s quite simple actually. There’s simply nothing else the alliance can do for me, that’s why.”
Emery took this opportunity to ask what he wanted to know the most. “Where did you take all those acolytes? Why did you take them!?”
Hearing that, Zenonia turned her eyes to Emery. “Do you want to know?” She then raised her hand towards him while saying, “Follow me, and I will let you see them.”
Emery certainly will not be fooled, that female grand magus has been trying to take him since the beginning of the year.
But, before Emery could say anything, his face changed as he felt spatial distortion suddenly appeared around him. Instantly and on instinct, Emery cast [Repulsion] to push him away from the spatial distortion while also affecting it to some degree.
But then, a derisive sneer sounded in the air.
“Huh! There is no point in resisting.”
Those words themselves brought a spirit attack, one that was powerful enough to instantly make Emery’s knees buckle.
“You are coming with me!”
The others quickly rushed to his side to support him when they saw this, only to be stifled by the same pressure. They found they couldn’t move their bodies no matter what, not until Grand Magus Yvere cast a spell that relieved the pressure.
“Stop this madness Zenonia!”
When it seemed another fight was about to start to force Emery to come with her, the female grand magus’s eyes narrowed as she looked toward the sky.
At the same time, Emery could feel a powerful energy approaching their location. It seemed that another powerful grand magus had come to their aid.
She gazed at the group and said, “Don’t think you win yet, we still have a surprise for you all”
As soon as she said those words, a portal was created behind her and just before she stepped inside, she glanced at Emery and said, “Until we meet again.”
Grand Magus Yvere didn’t even try to stop her from going with his current condition. Hence, the group could only watch as the female grand magus and her magus subordinates disappeared into the portal.
After the portal disappeared, the old grand magus turned to Emery. “Regretfully, I could not stop her; she has improved so much these past few months.”
Hearing these words, Emery couldn’t help but remember the dark crystal part of Khaos that his master took to give to the grand magus. His heart throbbed in pain as a feeling of regret swept through his being.
Seconds after, Lilith of the Dark Salamander slammed down in a flurry of black flames.
“Huh!! She just left didn’t she? That coward bitch!”
The half blood Elder was annoyed before returning back to find another elves to fight with. Leaving Emery and Grand Magus Yvere analyzing the artifact, or rather, what was left of it.
“Is that true, Elder? That we can’t do the reverse spell with the console broken?”
The old grand magus was silent for a while before saying, “The console helps connect with the symbol given on the acolyte’s palm. Without it… it is impossible to lock the acolyte position”
When he saw the look on Emery’s face, Grand Magus Yvere could do nothing but heave a sigh of helplessness.
He was about to return to the arena to help the others who were still fighting when he suddenly jerked his head up to the sky with a shocked expression.
Noticing the strange action, Emery quickly followed suit and looked towards the sky.
Kabooomm Kabooomm Kabooom
Multiple explosions of energy were seen in the sky above, which was quickly followed by the sight of the light barrier trembling violently.
“How could they be here!?”
Emery quickly narrowed his eyes, and with enough focus, he could see not just one but two elven warships hovering in the space above the Magus Academy. His mouth wide open as he watched the warships continuously bombarding the barrier.

It was certainly shocking to see an elven warship manage to reach so deep within the sector; even if they managed to pass through Supreme Commander Jasper Hoffin and his Pegasus Armada, they shouldn’t be able to arrive here so fast.
It quickly occurred to him that this must be what Zenonia meant as surprises. After all, if the two warships somehow managed to destroy the barrier, the Magus Academy would have to deal with a few thousand more elves at the very least. A total catastrophe for them.
Noticing the concern, Grand Magus Yvere said, “As long as the God crystal in the Light Institute remains intact, it would take them a few hours before they can create a crack in the barrier.”
However, moments after such words were spoken, the two of them were shocked as they saw the barrier become thinner, and as if their worst premonition had actually occurred, it completely disappeared seconds later
Emery couldn’t help to think that Grand Magus Aurora was in trouble as well.

Just as Emery had feared the most, the situation in the Light Institute was nothing short of dire, with most of the instructors and magus enforcers having fallen lifeless to the ground. At the moment, the famous Oracle, Grand Magus Aurora, was occupied fighting against a powerful elven grand magus, a dark elf veteran general.
The female grand magus was pushed around and tried her best to fight back, but with the dwindling number of her people, the enemy was finally able to deactivate the God crystal, which immediately stopped the beaming energy that soared up into the sky.
“Hahaha, finally! Send a signal to our warships. Commence the attack! Burn them all down!!”
