《A Wizard’s Secret》A Wizard's Secret
Advertisement
Ten gigantic fireballs flew toward Wizard Jason in the blink of an eye. Even with the protection of "Holy Light Ring", Wizard Jason's expression changed greatly.
Merlin was a little pale. His Mind Power was greatly exhausted. For a feat like that, he had already exhausted half of his Mind Power. With his current Mind Power, controlling ten gigantic fireballs was nonetheless putting too much on his plate.
However, these gigantic fireballs did not need Merlin's control much. After the fireballs had flown behind Wizard Jason, he only needed to detonate the unstable fireballs directly with his Mind Power.
"V-room."
The fireballs exploded and endless flames drowned Wizard Jason's body instantly. The flicking flame hissed around, sweeping small rocks and dust from the ground and formed a mushroom-shaped flame in the air.
The knights and nobles took a few steps back. They stared in horror at the raging, terrifying flame.
Even for Merlin, it was his first-time casting ten Large Fireballs, so he could not predict how terrifying its effect would be.
However, Merlin would not let down his guard, so he stared in an alert at the center of the explosion.
"Hu…"
A gust of wind blew away all the dust. Merlin was pale, one of his hands pressed lightly on his injured stomach. His chest was heaving rapidly. It was easy to see how seriously exhausted his Mind Power was after casting ten Large Fireballs from Bell Pendant at once. If he did not have an excellent physical attribute, he could not have held on any longer and fell on the ground by now.
At the center of the explosion earlier, Wizard Jason's figure appeared. However, the "Holy Light Ring" which surrounded Wizard Jason had completely disappeared. His white robe had been turned into ashes.
Meanwhile, Wizard Jason had been charred. He fell on the ground and his face was beyond recognition.

"Finally dead…" Merlin smiled. Just when he felt relieved, he could not hang on any longer and lost consciousness.
Augustin's eyes were bright red. His whole being was giving out a scary aura. He seemed just like a beast that had human flesh. Thus, even though this was the perfect timing to kill Merlin, Augustin and the injured Baron Vingult did not dare to make any rash move.
"Merlin!"
Old Wilson approached Merlin and lightly held him up. Merlin had not lost his consciousness completely at this moment. It was just that the damage on his Mind Power was too great, so he temporarily passed out.
"Father, don't worry. Uncle Prat is waiting at the city gate. We should leave Blackwater City quickly," Merlin said between large mouthfuls of breaths. He was not sure if the church had only sent Jason. If there were other Wizards, Merlin could not cast the spell in his current situation even if Bell Pendant still had eight Large Fireballs left.
Therefore, they must depart from Blackwater City immediately.
Old Wilson nodded and helped Merlin up. Then, his gaze lightly scanned Castellan Augustin and Vingult. Besides them, many City Defense Troop knights had gathered. Even if Old Wilson had his strong heavy armored knights, it was still impossible to kill them in a short amount of time.
If they stayed any longer in Blackwater City, they would be in more danger!
"Let's go!" Old Wilson ordered. Many heavy armored knights quickly dashed out of Castellan's Mansion. Augustin and Vingult did not stop them this time.
Along with Old Wilson, some nobles also left the place quickly. There were still some nobles who decided to stay after thinking for a long time.
After all, they could not give up their family's business in Blackwater City, so they were prepared to surrender to the church.

"Augustin, you're just letting Wilson go like that?" injured Baron Vingult questioned Augustin loudly while standing up in difficulty.
"Swish."
Augustin stared at Vingult sharply with a cold aura surrounding him.
"Baron Vingult, you're too ambitious… Wilson should have killed you just now! However, I can help Wilson one more time…"
Augustin let out a sneer then he raised his sword.
"What are you doing?"
Vingult's expression changed and took a few steps backward in a struggle.
"Die!"
Scorching flames burst out from Augustin's sword and slashed toward Vingult. Since Baron Vingult was heavily injured, he could not make any effective block at all.
"Tsk."
The ferocious flame gulped Baron Vingult's body.
When the sword was pulled out, it was still tainted with red blood. Augustin shot his gaze at the other nobles. With his eyes squinted, he said calmly, "You saw it just now. Baron Vingult and Wizard Jason are killed by the Wilson father and son!"
The nobles all exchanged glances and nodded all at once.
At the city gate, Merlin was placed lightly into the carriage by Old Wilson. Old Wilson's gaze was very gentle. Only when he was treating Merlin, Old Wilson would have such gentle gaze.
In the carriage were also Macy and Big-breasted Madam.
Macy and the others immediately panicked when they saw Merlin's weak situation.
Old Wilson also asked in a heavy tone, "Merlin, how are you doing?"
Merlin struggled to sit up and leaned against the carriage. He shook his head slightly. "Father, I'm fine. We must leave Blackwater City as soon as possible. We can't waste any minute!" Merlin reminded Old Wilson again that it was dangerous to stay in Blackwater City. They must leave now.
Old Wilson nodded, then he said to Big-breasted Madam and Macy, "Merlin is injured. You take care of him."
After that, he jumped off the carriage and began to gather his knights. He was preparing to leave Blackwater City.
"Merlin, you're leaving Blackwater City?" Fatty Gutt's voice rang outside the carriage.
Merlin quickly called Macy to pull the curtain open. After seeing Gutt, Merlin nodded, "Gutt, we must leave Blackwater City. The Kingdom of Light no longer exists now. You can come with me and leave Blackwater City, maybe even leave the Kingdom of Light!"
Merlin truly wanted to help Gutt. If Gutt was willing to do so, he would bring Gutt together.
Hearing Merlin's words, Gutt shook his head slightly, "I don't have to leave. No matter who's the one in control of the kingdom, they won't be able to survive without businessman. So, I'll be fine."
Gutt clearly knew that with his status, he should not be in any danger in Blackwater City.
Both did not say anything further. The air fell into silence.
Old Wilson had gathered the knights. He had lost thirty heavy armored knights, so he was left with one hundred and seventy of them. He also had lost more normal knights. There were only five hundred knights under Old Wilson's command now.
Along with Old Wilson's order, the unit began to depart from Blackwater City.
Merlin kept looking out of the carriage. Gutt's figure became smaller gradually until it was completely out of Merlin's sight.
"Merlin, will we be able to return to this place?" Macy suddenly asked after a long silence.
"Yes, we'll definitely return to this place!" Merlin took a deep breath. As he stared at the faraway Blackwater City, his tone was full of determination.

Omnipocalypse Monsters(Shelved Timeline)
System Edit: This timeline has been shelved, but the adventures of the Omegas and her kids will continue in the next System Update Timeline with additional foes and challenges early on to guide the Omegas into a less destructive path of protection.The Omnipocalypse was every apocalypse humans ever imagined all happening at once, zombies, plagues, nukes, EMPs, Robot uprisings. Not just the earth either, It happened to every World ever dreamed up by men too: heaven, hell, and every other afterlife or spirit world ended, plus the worlds of books and stories bled into reality. It all broke apart and either; became new places on the chaotic Earth or part of the even messier spirit world. Magic beasts mutated by radiation, Robots mastering Magic, the mixture of everything made the horrors... well, more horrible. Omega; A young Woman with few memories wakes to find she has spent 2500 years in stasis, in a basement of scientific horrors. Creatures and Things that could supposedly destroy the world if ever let free. Horrors of which she was the last to get free. Rather then Quest for world domination or destruction; Omega keeps getting drawn into a protective role over other orphans, lost monsters, and broken AIs. So she decides to build something to help all her little monster family be safe. -------This story is meant to be a behind the scenes look at stories about kids solving problems that should be beyond them. I always wanted to see a story about Professor Oak, Dumbledore, or any other mentor who trains the main characters. I like the idea of someone looking at the apocalyptic world and deciding to make it safe enough that a small child can wander off and make some monster their pet. The pokemon games have fun systems to consider the behind the scenes workings of, like what training a team rocket member goes through to become a villain cut out for children to defeat. how they prevent a deific pokemon from accidentally murdering some little rat with its immense psionic power. However, the story itself is not really meant to be a pokemon parody, I draw inspiration from every genre of fiction, any type of game, this story is the only one I plan of ever writing without a clear cut ending planned, I love the infinite storytelling capacity of things like Doctor who's TARDIS, the Stargate or Rick's portal gun. In this case, I wanted the setting itself to be one where any and every story might happen. Cover Image by kalli gruen from Pixabay Discord Image by Digital Photo and Design DigiPD.com from Pixabay
