Ascension: Strongest Fateless Mage

Chapter 144 Solved

"Hahaha, it seems that the mission failed. Well, whatever. You can finish me," Black Hawk grinned.

"Finish you?" Raven coldly said as she walked in front of Black Hawk and kicked him in his crotch. "Not so easy."

"Indeed," Blondina said while checking Zevien's condition. Even her eyes showed fury at seeing Zevien's condition. "The torture on Alucard's internal body is not something that even I have ever done to someone. Those black crystals are vicious. It's a miracle that Alucard stayed awake."

"Hahaha, that's right! I guess that shitty vampire was really undead," Black Hawk laughed. "I should have killed him, but I wanted to torture him before killing him since he stole our precious thing. But I've never seen someone stubborn like that damn bastard."

Raven conjured a black blade and pierced it into Black Hawk's abdomen before the blade turned into some mystical liquid and entered his body.

"Cough…it seems that you also want to torture me," Black Hawk spit out some blood before grinning. "Hahaha, even if other 1st class magicians arrived here, I had plans, but I was not expecting something like that," he said while looking at Ravana, the black crow sitting on Raven's shoulder. "A power surpassing 1st class in here, heh. Talk about a surprise."

"Blood Sun Organization, right? You are over," Touma said as he also walked in front of Black Hawk. "We got your headquarters' location."

"Blood Sun Organization? What are you talking about?" Black Hawk laughed. But inwardly, he was shocked. 'How did they know?'

"No use bluffing because we are not bluffing," Raven snorted. "We already know your location."

"It seems that I was a bit late."

Everyone was startled and looked up to see a middle-aged man with a dark orange beard flying near the warehouse's roof as if he had just recently entered from the top.

"He is more powerful than me," Ravana said, making everyone stand on edge as they looked cautious except Raven.

"Headmaster Noril?" Raven recognized him.

Touma and Blondina were startled. They had heard the name but never seen him.

"Indeed," Headmaster Noril nodded as he caressed his beard with a smile. He looked at Zevien, and his eyes briefly glowed before he frowned. "That's cruel," he said before waving his hand as a magic potion flew towards Blondina.

"Pour it in his mouth. It will recover him in a minute."

Blondina nodded as she carefully poured the magic potion into Zevien's mouth.

"Black Hawk, right?" Headmaster Noril flew down and stood in front of Black Hawk as Raven and Touma backed away.

"Hehe, look who is here. The great Headmaster Noril who killed our previous leader," Black Hawk scoffed.

"It seems that you have accepted your fate," Headmaster Noril nodded as he waved his hand and trapped Black Hawk into a transparent bubble with a faint silver hue. "How are you living safely in that forbidden zone and even doing your business as usual? Your organization can't do these without someone's backing from Astral Land.

"Tell me who is backing you from Astral Land, and I will give you a less painful death," Headmaster Noril uttered icily.

"Staying in a forbidden zone? No wonder they managed to stay hidden," Touma frowned.

"Hahaha, I don't know anything! Even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you," Black Hawk manically laughed before the magic power readings from him suddenly increased and…

*Dhoof…*

He exploded from inside, but the bubble that Headmaster Noril created contained everything, so nobody was harmed.

"I'll be taking back my student while you take these four away. As for the Blood Sun Organization, your country doesn't need to get involved in that because Astral Land is in the picture," Headmaster Noril flew towards Zevien and used his mana to let him float in front of him.

A second later, a silver aura covered them, and a magic circle formed above them for two seconds before they disappeared.

"Student? Is Alucard a student at Skyward Academy? But that masked man said that he gave his medallion to Zevien…," Susan asked.

"The old man vanished before spilling the beans," Raven wryly smiled. They didn't utter Zevien's name even after entering here, but now these four knew.

Indeed, Amon guessed it.

"I was feeling some similarities, but now it's confirmed," Amon smiled. "Zevien is Alucard. Haha, Vernisia's choice is solid."

"We are in this situation because of him," Susan snorted.

"Don't tell me you are still opposed? Are you serious?" Amon frowned.

"No, I am not opposed, but what I said is true, no?" Susan sighed and shook her head. "Forget it. He came for us and suffered that torture while telling that guy to let us go the entire time. How can I not approve of him?"

"Do you even know why they were after him?" Raven scoffed as she walked in front of them. "Without Zevien bringing that crystal and notifying the government about it in advance, the causalities in that recent disaster could be even higher. Not just that, but he has other contributions aside from this. Just know that the recent increase in the country's economy and overall strength is because of him."

"Yes, that spell gauntlet is indeed very good," Amon nodded, but then he glanced at Martin and Bella because only he and Susan knew that the actual owner of Zenith Corp was Zevien.

"Oh? The spell gauntlet is invented by him?" Martin asked in surprise.

Raven was speechless and shook her head. "No, but he had a small part in it and your daughter, too. Not much though, so don't feel proud."

While they were talking, Touma and Blondina were inspecting the ropes that bound them.

"These ropes are tricky. They are tier-4 items. Hmmm, we need a single instance of a concentrated attack on the rope to break it," Touma said as he looked at Raven. "Can you do it?"

"I can try, but better to let Ravana handle it," Raven said as she looked at Ravana. "We could also break it with a sharp enough pure physical weapon at tier-4, but none of us has something like that, right?"

"Unfortunately," Blondina and Touma nodded. They didn't use sharp weapons like swords in combat.

Ravana flapped twice as two feathers separated from its wings and floated in front of it. The feathers became shining black with a dark-blue hue as Ravana reinforced them before they flew towards Touma and Blondina. "These feathers should be able to cut those ropes."
