A Wizard’s Secret
chapter-250

In the crowd, Shireen, Haya, and the rest were unable to take their eyes off the Neverending Book displaying all sorts of spells in midair. Their faces were those of utter astonishment.

"It really is the Neverending Book. Some of these spells are not even available in the clans."

"The Neverending Book is really marvelous to be able to record so many spells in such a comprehensive manner. Any Spell Caster clan who got their hands on the Neverending Book would develop at an incredible rate, and may ultimately even be a match for those Spell Caster organizations."

"It's not that easy. Spell Caster organizations have a continued inheritance accumulated over a thousand years. Spells are just one part of it, there's also runology, alchemy, potions, and the rest. Without this complete inheritance, one would never be comparable to a Spell Caster organization."

Shireen stared at the Neverending Book steadily displaying spells in midair and shook her head slightly. She had a deep understanding of the inner workings of Spell Caster organizations. One could not become a Spell Caster organization by relying solely on the Neverending Book or a powerful individual.

For instance, Sterling House might be very powerful now, but it was resting entirely on the Great Wizard Sterling. Once he died, the status of Sterling House would immediately take a dive, because the Sterling House had not collected a comprehensive, varied inheritance as Spell Caster organizations did.

Moreover, Spell Caster organizations were the legacies of Spell Casters, and the manifestation of their strength was merely one aspect. Without these legacies, there would be no Spell Casters organization.

Ever since the age of the Molta Empire, much of the Spell Casters' legacies had in fact been lost. Current Spell Casters had fallen a long way from the era of the Molta Empire, for that was the golden age of Spell Casters!

Shireen shot a glance at Emma standing beside her and found that Emma had begun recording the spells of the Neverending Book, but she seemed preoccupied with something else as her eyes were constantly searching for something in the crowd.

Shireen shook her head slightly. She knew that Emma was looking for that teacher from the Dark Magic Region. However, it was rather hopeless, Emma's teacher was most likely caught up in the moment of excitement – did this teacher truly take Emma seriously? There were no results at all from Emma's current persistent search.

However, based on the stubbornly determined expression on Emma's face, Shireen knew that Emma would not give up no matter what.

Following that, Shireen, Haya, and the rest quickly recorded the spells from the Neverending Book, especially those that were suited to them, which they recorded with their full attention.

…

During the display of the Neverending Book, the crowd became so quiet one could hear a pin drop. Most of the Spell Casters were unable to take their eyes off the spells displayed by the Neverending Book.

Only a few Spell Casters with dignified expressions and sharp eyes did not look at the Neverending Book, but instead, they constantly assessed the Spell Casters from the Shadison clan.

"The Neverending Book. It's time, begin!"

In the crowd, a cold light flashed in the eyes of Wizard Raimundo, who lightly waved his hand.

"Boom."

Instantly, a wild gust of Wind Elemental fluctuation built up to a whistling gale that swept towards Wizard Rhind.

This sudden development immediately threw the crowd into chaos, but the Shadison clan was ready instantly. Many Spell Casters stepped forward in front of the Neverending Book and Rhind, their bodies flashing with waves of Earth Elemental fluctuations as they cast an Earth-type Defensive spell.

The dozens of Spell Casters cast the same Earth-type spell together and the Earth Elemental fluctuations were frightening. Almost all of the sky was turned into a dirt-yellow color, which was an impressive sight.

"Hmm? The Doret clan has made their move?"

As they saw the spell shadowing the sky and the earth, countless Spell Casters in the crowd began to revolt suddenly. Even Wizard Rhind noticed Wizard Raimundo, clan elder of the Doret clan, who was hiding in the crowd.

Therefore, Wizard Rhind prepared to keep the Neverending Book with a wave of his hand. He was already prepared for the Doret clan's attack, so he did not seem alarmed. The numerous Wizards of Shadison had also quickly responded.

"Humph, attacking at this time is already too late!"

Wizard Rhind laughed coldly. He saw that the crowd of roaming Wizards did not make any moves at all. This indicated that his demonstration of the Neverending Book had its desired effect. Since they had already obtained the spells, there were not many roaming Wizards who would be willing to take the risk of joining the Doret clan in attacking the Shadison clan.

If it was only the Doret clan who was attacking, then Wizard Rhind was not worried at all.

"Wizard Mivedor, Wizard Osali, attack now. Annihilate every incoming enemy and spare no one!"

A sharp light flashed in Wizard Rhind's eyes and a terrifying murderous intent was apparent all over his body. As soon as he gave his order, two Spell Casters unleashed a roar, and a horde of Spell Casters rushed out from Shadison Manor. In a moment, the earth-shattering spells were directed at the Spell Casters from the Doret clan who were in the crowd.

Numerous spells filled the skies causing constant screams and cries here and there – chaos had erupted outside Shadison Manor. In order to not be entangled in the conflict, many roaming Wizards had retreated by this time.

In such a skirmish, one might be hit by a spell in a moment of carelessness, after which one was likely to be attacked by dozens of spells. Even a Third-level Spell Caster would not be so certain of escaping unscathed.

"Leave the Neverending Book!"

Just as Rhind was about to keep the Neverending Book, a sudden command rang out. Following that, a giant palm formed entirely by condensed Wind Element came down from the sky and trapped Wizard Rhind. Its petrifying pressure made Wizard Rhind's expression change instantly.

"A Fourth-level Spell Caster!"

Rhind cried out hoarsely. Casting such a terrifying spell – there was no doubt that a Fourth-level spell had been cast. Furthermore, Rhind's Fourth-level Spell Caster did no such thing at all, so he was certain that this was a Fourth-level Spell Caster from the other side.

"Bang."

The giant palm formed by condensed Wind Element lunged towards the Neverending Book. However, in a flash, a violent ball of flame lit up half the sky from within Shadison Manor, it was as if the sky had suddenly caught aflame.

The flames raged and burned, approaching Wizard Rhind in the blink of an eye. The crimson flames surged up and expanded quickly. Its mighty power increased and collided ruthlessly with the giant Wind Element palm.

These were both Fourth-level spells, and they clashed against each other monumentally. Wild bursts of Fire Element and Wind Element spread in all directions, and soon the surroundings were in complete disorder.

A few roaming Wizards who were not so lucky to escape in time were killed, engulfed by the flames and winds. Their bodies were crushed in an instant, following which they were turned into ashes by the blaze.

This was the might of Fourth-level spells, which far surpassed the limits of Third-level spells. It was a complete leap of power. After all, in the Dark Magic Region, Fourth-level Spell Casters could build their own towers. Their lofty status was a world of difference from the Spell Casters below Fourth-level.

"Heh heh, old fellow, you've hidden in Shadison Manor for so many years – to think that you haven't died!"

In the raging fire and gale, a skinny old man walked out slowly, squinting his eyes at a figure within Shadison Manor.

"Ubik, if an old thing like you isn't dead yet, how can I be dead?"

From within Shadison Manor, a hale and hearty old Spell Caster walked out slowly. This was the strongest person in the Shadison clan, Fourth-level Wizard Gill.

Once Wizard Gill appeared, an expression of pride came over the faces of Spell Casters from the Shadison clan. In their clan, Wizard Gill held a high reputation. In the past, Wizard Gill was able to face down two Fourth-level Spell Casters without being outdone one bit, an act that established his reputation in Tolle City.

Therefore, even though he had not appeared for a long time now, he was still highly regarded by others, and even Wizard Ubik wore an apprehensive expression.

"Gill, hand me the Neverending Book, it's not something that your Shadison clan can possess."

Wizard Ubik spoke with a cold smile, his blazing eyes fixed on the Neverending Book which was currently in the hands of Wizard Gill.

Wizard Gill shot a complicated look towards the Neverending Book in his hand, and his expression became downcast. He said coolly, "Ubik, the spells of the Neverending Book have been publicly disclosed. What's more, as a Fourth-level Spell Caster, what do you need the first volume of the Neverending Book for? You're likely bribed by the Doret clan, that's why you're revolting against the Shadison clan. In that case, I would like to see how much you've actually grown in these few years?"

Wizard Gill was not afraid of Wizard Ubik at all, and his tone was severe. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

"Haha, Gill, you can stop misleading the public. The first volume of the Neverending Book contains information on the second volume and even the third volume of the Neverending Book. Did you think that just because you shared some spells, you can hog the secrets of the Neverending Book?"

From the crowd, another Spell Caster emerged, dressed in a robe of faint silver color.

Wizard Gill did not seem surprised to see this silver-robed Spell Caster. Conversely, his gaze sharpened abruptly, and he laughed coldly. "Sabis, you've finally appeared. I'm afraid that just the two of you would be greatly inadequate!"

A haughty expression came over Wizard Gill's face. He had long been ready for Wizard Sabis, for Sabis was the only Fourth-level Spell Caster in the Doret clan, and would surely not miss this opportunity.

As expected, Sabis came forward in the end, and he had joined forces with Wizard Ubik. Facing two Fourth-level Spell Casters would bring a certain amount of pressure to Wizard Gill.

However, the pressure brought by two Fourth-level Spell casters was not enough to make Wizard Gill concerned. What he was actually worried about was what Wizard Sabis had mentioned, that the first volume of the Neverending Book contained clues to the second and third volumes of the Neverending Book.

Regardless of whether this was true, once it was openly announced by the Doret clan, Ubik would definitely not be the only Fourth-level Wizard who would come forward today. The Fourth-level Spell Casters who came to Tolle City a few days ago still had not shown themselves. They were observing what was going at every moment and would choose the best time to strike.

This was what Wizard Gill was truly worried about. He did not think that the Shadison clan's plan would be ruined by a single announcement made by the Doret clan. The Shadison clan was truly in danger now!
