Chapter 582: Didimoss Leaves

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Vortex Hole trembled as if there was a terrifying power stirring the vortex as well as the entire Slothful Beast word. Below the Vortex Hole, Spellcast City felt the tremors more intensely.

“What’s going on?”

Wizard Luce quickly arrived where Merlin was. Even the black cat Didimoss had awakened, and was watching the huge Vortex Hole in the air vigilantly.

Merlin shook his head. He also did not know what was happening. He only felt that there seemed to be a fearsome force stirring the Vortex Hole.

“Tss.”

Suddenly, an illusory finger appeared from the Vortex Hole.

“A finger?”

Merlin and Wizard Luce cast a glance at each other, rejoice showing on their faces. Someone was tearing the Vortex Hole from the outside. There had long been rumors in the Slothful Beast world. If there was a powerful force that tore a vortex from the outside, then it would be possible to leave the Slothful Beast world. However, that was just an ancient rumor. After all, even Lords might not be able to tear open the Vortex Hole.

However, now, looking at the finger, Merlin knew that this was an external force tearing open the Vortex Hole.

“Boom.”

The huge illusory finger appeared from the Vortex Hole, followed by another, two, three...

Ten fingers, followed by two huge palms, firmly gripped each side of the Vortex Hole, and opened a gigantic hole.

“Whoosh.”

A figure that was accompanied by a terrifying pressure quickly flew down from the Vortex Hole.

“Meow, that’s Zado’s life force. Merlin, Zado came to save you!”

The black cat Didimoss was the first to feel the familiar life force, and said excitedly.

“Teacher Zado?”

Merlin lifted his head, and looked at the figure. He was similar to the Legend Zado he knew in his memories but the life force was a little different.

However, the black cat Didimoss had been by Zado’s side for far longer, so it very quickly felt Legend Zado’s life force.

“Swoosh.”

That figure’s speed was extremely swift, and landed beside Merlin. It was indeed Legend Zado.

“Haha, Merlin, it really is you! Quick, come with me. Wizard Setoh had forcefully opened the Slothful Beast’s passage. We’ll be able to leave the Slothful Beast world through this passage.”

Legend Zado also did not expect that he would meet Merlin so soon, and could not help but laughed out loud.

“Wizard Setoh?”

There was a trace of doubt in Merlin’s eyes. Opening up the Slothful Beast’s passage was not something an ordinary Spell Caster could do.

“It’s a long story. The Blackfire Lord spent more than thirty years trying to get Arcane Wizard Setoh to use an avatar. Quick, I’ll tell you more after we leave.”

Legend Zado looked at the vortex passage in the sky, and urged. He also knew that it was very difficult for Arcane Wizard Setoh to maintain this passage.

“Hmm, Luce, let’s go. We can leave the Slothful Beast world!”

Merlin glanced at Spellcast City. He wanted to bring the Wizards of Spellcast City along with him but that was impossible. Thus, he could only instantly transform into a streak of light with Legend Zado, as well as Luce and the black cat Didimoss, and throw themselves into the passage at the mouth of the vortex.

...

The Blackfire Lord looked nervously at Wizard Setoh, who was struggling to support the passage. It seemed that he would not be able to support it any longer.

“Wizard Setoh, how is it? How much longer can you hold on for?”

The Blackfire Lord asked quietly.

Wizard Setoh’s expression was solemn. “I never thought that the Slothful Beast would have such powerful self-regulation. The pressure on me has just doubled, and I won’t be able to hold on to this passage for much longer. If Zado still doesn’t come out, the passage will be sealed, and he’ll never be able to leave!”

Even the Blackfire Lord could feel that the sleeping Slothful Beast was slightly swaying. A strange fluctuation was repairing the passage torn by Wizard Setoh.

Under such a situation, even if it was Wizard Setoh, he would not be able to hold on for long.

“Haha, Wizard Setoh, Blackfire Lord, I’ve lived up to your expectations and brought Merlin back!”

A burst of loud laughter sounded from the passage in the vortex, and at the same time, several figures swiftly flew out from the passage.

“Boom.”

The colossal Slothful Beast’s body shook again, and Wizard Setoh was no longer able to hold on. As soon as he let go, the passage on the Slothful Beast’s Vortex Hole had disappeared immediately, apparently repaired by the Slothful Beast.

Moreover, Wizard Setoh was no longer needed to forcefully open the Vortex Hole again.

“Teacher!”

Merlin greeted the Blackfire Lord respectfully. If not for the Blackfire Lord’s perseverance, Luce and he might have been trapped in the Slothful Beast world forever.

“Oh? Merlin, we seemed to have come out from the Slothful Beast’s backdoor.”

The black cat Didimoss said in an exaggerated tone which even contained a trace of irritation. Merlin also turned around to look and found that the Vortex Hole was indeed the Slothful Beast’s backdoor.

Thinking about this, Merlin’s expression also became unnatural.

“Blackfire, this is your disciple, Merlin?”

Suddenly, Wizard Setoh’s sharp gaze fell on Merlin, giving Merlin a feeling that he had been completely exposed. Wizard Setoh’s eyes were endlessly deep.

Merlin’s body shivered, and he thought about Legend Zado’s explanation. This unfamiliar Spell Caster was no doubt Arcane Wizard Setoh’s avatar that the Blackfire Lord had spent more than thirty years trying to call.

Even if he was only an avatar, he was worthy of the name. This was the one of the Three Great Arcane Wizards of Spell Caster civilization, Arcane Wizard Setoh!

Merlin had never met an Arcane Wizard before but he could sense an unfathomable life force on Wizard Setoh’s body. It was completely different from the feeling that Merlin got from the Blackfire Lord.

The Blackfire Lord was strong, and even Merlin could feel a powerful sense of oppression. However, in the end, Merlin knew that the Blackfire Lord’s strength was tangible and visible.

However, Merlin could not fathom Wizard Setoh at all. It was as if he was illusory, making Merlin unable to feel that he was real.

“Merlin, this is Arcane Wizard Setoh. This time, it was all Wizard Setoh’s hard work that rescued you safely from the Slothful Beast’s body.

The Blackfire Lord pointed at Wizard Setoh, and introduced to Merlin.

Merlin quickly bowed in respect, “Great Arcane Wizard, thank you for your help!”

“You teacher used a precious promise in exchange for my help, so if you have to thank anyone, thank Blackfire instead! Merlin, you have a good teacher. I’ve never seen Blackfire pay such a hefty price for a disciple. You’re indeed quite good, a Six-Elemental Spell Caster. You have a chance of becoming a Great Legend in the future!”

Wizard Setoh narrowed his eyes and glanced over at the black cat Didimoss. When he saw Didimoss, his expression changed greatly.

“Natural order? I can’t see the brand of the natural order on your body... You’ve reversed the natural order?”

Wizard Setoh’s voice trembled when he mentioned about “reversing the natural order”.

Merlin looked at Legend Zado, and Legend Zado also said awkwardly, “Wizard Setoh, Didimoss only gradually changed into a living entity from a spirit of the Runic Magic Circle by a twist of fate. It was also because of reversing the natural order that it was able to become a being comparable to Great Legends!”

Wizard Setoh grew even more excited after hearing Legend Zado’s firm answer, and could not stop laughing. “Haha, sixteen hundred years ago, the Three Great Arcane Wizards set out for the sake of a weak, ordinary life that had reversed the natural order that the Giant Tribe had obtained first. At that time, the life that reversed the natural order was only equivalent to a Fourth-level Spell Caster, weak and pitiful!

“Even so, because of strong interference from other civilizations, we didn’t manage to get it in the end, and it was taken by the Titan Giant of the Giant Tribe. It’s so regretful! Who would’ve thought that I’d encounter a living being that had reversed the natural order, and also comparable to Great Legends? Hahaha, it’s worth it, it’s really worth it! Merlin, Didimoss is very important to us, the Three Great Arcane Wizards. There’s no brand of the natural order on its body, so countless powerful others would go crazy over Didimoss. It’ll be too dangerous if it stays by your side. If a foreign tribe knows of this, they would compete for it at all costs. I’ll take Didimoss away for now. Didimoss will be safe under our protection. In addition, it’ll even grow faster!”

Wizard Setoh’s expression was completely agitated, and there was even some madness in that excitement.

“Uh... Merlin, I don’t want to go!”

The black cat Didimoss looked at Wizard Setoh, and felt fear from the bottom of its heart. It jumped onto Merlin’s shoulder but with a light grab from Wizard Setoh, an invisible power had enveloped Didimoss, and instantly imprisoned it.

“Wizard Setoh, the black cat Didimoss has been with me for many years...”

Before Merlin even finished speaking, Wizard Setoh waved his hand and said, “Merlin, you can’t even begin to imagine the preciousness of a being who had reversed the natural order. In the vast Void Zone, among billions of dimensions, such an existence can be counted on one hand! Don’t worry, we won’t harm Didimoss. After all, it’s also a friend of ours, the Spell Casters.”

At this time, the Blackfire Lord also interrupted. “Merlin, Wizard Setoh won’t do anything to Didimoss. Don’t worry!”

Merlin still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Didimoss had been with him since the Kingdom of Blackmoon to the Void Zone. Furthermore, Merlin felt that with Didimoss by his side, it was like having a Great Legend.

Now that Wizard Setoh wanted to take Didimoss away, Merlin would naturally find it hard to accept.

However, if it really was like what Wizard Setoh had said that Didimoss, a living being who had reversed the natural order was so important, then keeping Didimoss by his side was indeed too dangerous. They were lucky that strong beings from foreign tribes had not discovered them. Otherwise, if they took action, no one would be able to save Merlin and Didimoss.

Of course, the most important reason was that Merlin did not have the power to refuse Wizard Setoh at all.

Thus, Merlin went to Didimoss’ side and said gently, “Didimoss, go with Wizard Setoh to Arcane City. It’s the safest there! I’ll come back for you later. Don’t forget, we need to return to the Kingdom of Blackmoon...”

The black cat Didimoss no longer struggled, and nodded slightly. Then, it swished its long tail and jumped on Wizard Setoh’s shoulder.

Then, Wizard Setoh quickly and excitedly brought Didimoss back to Arcane City...
