Throne of Magical Arcana
chapter-809

“Silent! No shouting in the court!” The “judge” picked up the gavel and brought attention back to the bench, looking rather unbiased.

It was Hypocrisy!

Looking at Lucien, Hypocrisy announced, “With regard to the accusation against you, a fair sentence will be given to you. Please go in the dock. Don’t worry. I am the most upright and impartial judge in the primeval hell.”

As soon as Hypocrisy finished the words, Abhorrence sprang up from the chair and said aloud, “I accuse him of the violent desire for killing! Anyone who pissed him off was killed! He killed the followers of Argent Horn, the night watchers, and so many! Even a hundred sheets of paper is not enough for the list!”

“I accuse him of being jealous all the time although you can tell nothing from the outside,” Jealousy said. “His guts are on fire with envy, all the time! He was jealous of the gangs’ life when he was poor. He was jealous of Natasha’s love toward Silvia. He hated Felipe’s reputation, the Hand of Paleness, and even all the great sorcerers in arcana! His body is only a hollow container of acidity as his soul has gone forever because of envy. Disgusting!”

Greed joined and said, “His heart is full of the desire for treasure and reputation. He put his name on his students’ papers and attacked those who didn’t agree with him. He wants everything, leaving nothing to anyone else!

“Those are just on the surface! The deepest reason is that he’s more than arrogant! He looks down upon all the arcanists in the Congress, including Douglas and Fernando. He despises the Saint Truth, including the popes and grand cardinals. He laughs at all the intelligent creatures in the world and believes that he is the only one knowing the truth of the world and the only lighthouse in this dark age!”

“In his mind, all other creatures are savage and silly, and he’s the only one standing above while watching everything with full awareness. Therefore, he’s cold, he doesn’t care about other people’s lives, and he is full of jealousy! All because he’s arrogant!” said Arrogance excitedly, waving its arms, as if it was the true judge in the court.

When Indulgence and Pain were about to join, when Hypocrisy was lifting the gavel again, Lucien suddenly smiled, and there a silver pocket watch appeared in his right hand.

Click.

The court suddenly came to a pause, and everything in the space now looked very pale.

Hypocrisy’s gavel remained in the air, while Arrogance had become a solid statue, which looked like it was giving a long speech.

And the rest of them had all frozen into statues.

Like an old painting in gray and white.

Without hesitation, Lucien was about to blink to the other side. After all, the devils were too many, and he could not manage to give each of them a Luxury Cracking within the time range given.

Lucien’s plan was that after there was a distance between them, he would use Space Shackle to trap them all and then throw Eternal Blaze at him. He knew that this one single strike could not kill them all, but it would earn him time.

At this time, he heard a mix of sounds!

The seven pocket watches and the clicking sound were mixing together. Faster and faster, as if it was going to blow at any time!

Lucien saw that each of the seven “Lucien” had a silver pocket watch in their hand! Exactly the same pocket watch!

There was a sarcastic smile on their faces, as if they were saying, We were all lying! We could even copy your legendary items!

Hypocrisy reached out its right hand.

“Luxury Cracking!”

The previous fights were for Lucien to lower his alert. Arrogance, Greed, and Abhorrence purposefully made Lucien believe that he could run away because of Moon Timer at any time so that he could be confident enough to come to this place where the seven of them could show up together!

Meanwhile, Arrogance grinned at Lucien and said, “Storm Barrier!”

The devils were grinning in triumph. Lucien had to pay for underestimating them!

Lucien had to pay for his own arrogance!

Without his arrogance, Lucien wouldn’t have fallen into such a trap.

Abhorrence reached out its right hand and was thrilled as if it had seen Lucien’s death.

“Positron Cannon!”

We were devils! Known for our cunning tricks of playing with human minds!

So cry, shout, and die!

Jealousy took a gloomy glance at the rest of the devils and said in low voice, “Eternal Blaze!”

You shall all die!

Meanwhile, Soul Smite from Greed, Space Staff from Indulgence, and Snow Goddess’ Forgiveness from Pain were all shooting toward Lucien.

This was totally out of Lucien’s expectation. For a second, he was stunned. Facing the seven most powerful spells, for a moment, Lucien understood how his enemies felt.

No one could take the seven top legendary spells all together, including any top legendaries!

Earlier, Arrogance, Greed, and Abhorrence were just pretending that they could not copy extraordinary items!

But how could they? How was this possible?

Where did the substance come from?

Like all the classic villains who did not want to accept their fate, Lucien kept asking the same questions…

However, as an arcanist, Lucien’s thinking went much deeper. There was something wrong.

If it had been someone else, it would have taken the arcanist much longer to realize what was wrong here, and within seconds, the spells would have destroyed everything. But Lucien was different, as he was here for a reason. He was here to verify an idea!

Seeing that Lucien had given up on defending himself, the devils were gloating wildly.

At this time, a meaningful smile emerged on Lucien’s face.

From another perspective, this had verified Lucien’s guess!

Hypocrisy and Arrogance first realized what was going on, and they looked totally shocked, as Lucien’s body suddenly collapsed inward.

Meanwhile, the stars in the Atomic Universe behind Lucien were orbiting in the mysterious tracks. The huge fireball had revolved to the other side and left a black hole there. The black hole looked rather intimidating as even light could not escape from its power of pulling in!

The dark hole and Lucien’s collapsed body started linking with each other in a creepy way. Then, Lucien himself had become the cluster of darkness, and the horrible attraction was twisting the surrounding time and space.

Luxury Cracking hit it, but then nothing happened!

Storm Barrier had disappeared!

When Positron Cannon hit the dark hole, it only shrank slightly!

None of the seven legendary spells worked, and the darkness still existed. It then stretched and pulled and converted into Lucien again.

“This isn’t arcana…” Greed took a step back.

Arrogance cried out of great shock, “How is this possible?! This thing can destroy the entire world!”

Hypocrisy looked at Lucien and murmured, “How…”

“As long as you dare to imagine, the world can be anything, isn’t it?” Lucien smiled, having no intention to launch his strike right away.

Hypocrisy’s eyes suddenly went wide. “You’ve known about it?”

“Of course. Do you wanna see Gamma-Ray Burst, God-Killing Swords, or Eternal Return?” Lucien joked.

He then closed his eyes, and his consciousness soared!
