Legacy of the Dark Sage



Others might find the eye inside Flos's magic device as a reptilian beast's eye, not specifically from a dragon. But Kyran was different.

He is the current Dragon Lord, and with the Draconic core inside him, its sudden reaction was an obvious sign that it recognized the presence of something with a similar wavelength as it had.

Cade and the rest of the Regis Special Forces rushing to where Kyran was also sensed a familiar aura when the eye opened. In an instant, their movements stopped, and they fell to their knees.

"Ergh...!"

"T-The hell? My body won't move!"

"What is happening?"

"What did that guy activated?"

The members of the special forces exclaimed one after another. Though they already activated the Regis Blessing, and their senses were heightened to a certain extent, they still failed to see clearly the eye inside Flos's magic device.

They only knew that the magic device felt familiar. However, that familiarity did not seem friendly. It even felt hostile.

Meanwhile, Cade was also forced to stop. However, he managed to stop himself from falling to his knees. He knew the reason he could stay standing was not because his will was stronger than the other members of the Regis Special Force. It had more to do with how much his body adapted to the dragon blood he had partaken of several years ago.

Apart from that, Cade could sense that the magic device in Flos's hands was a dragon relic. And it was not just any relic but possessed a part of a real dragon.

Since Cade was still far away, he had yet to see the dragon's eye inside the magic device. But he did sense the animosity from it.

Feeling that gave Cade an incoming headache. Because a dragon with such presence only meant it belonged to a different clan from the Dragon King's.

A dragon who belonged to a clan that probably opposed the Dragon King.

That was right.

Just like humans, dragons also had different clans. However, the Dragon King's clan was known to be the most powerful among the dragons and had ruled over the whole Dragon plane.

At least, that was what the Regis Clan knew.

Since there were no official records from when the Dragon Lord was still alive, they could only know about those things from the bits and pieces of notes written by some of their ancestors that lived after the Dragon Lord's time.

Putting the matter of the lack of records from the Dragon Lord's time aside, Cade turned his focus back to the present. Now that he knew Flos had an item that belonged to a dragon, they would be disadvantaged.

It did not matter that the Regis inherited a dragon's blessing because that blessing would only work wonders against others and the Dragon King's kindred. Their blessing would be pointless in front of a different dragon clan. After all, their blessing was only bestowed to them, and their body remained that of a human, while that item— though it was only a relic— came from a genuine dragon.

Cade unhesitantly circulated the dragon blood in his system to its full capacity.

Previously, he would have hesitated since doing this would only allow him to use a dragon's might for a few seconds, and then his body would break. But after completing Azaloth's inheritance, his body had gained a lot— not to mention, his magic attainment as an Abjurer had increased by leaps and bounds.

As soon as Cade activated more than 50% of the dragon blood in his system, the slits on his eyes turned golden, and dragon scales appeared on his skin. He then roused his magic and summoned a huge shield made of black obsidian while also molding a spear.

"Hm?" Flos turned his left after sensing an approaching familiar aura. It was familiar not because he knew who it belonged to but because it had a similar wavelength to his magic device.

Flos's brow knitted as he saw a 'humanoid' dragon approaching them at an alarming speed. The man was not 'flying' per se. He was coming in and out of focus, and Flos knew he was likely utilizing the Dragon Steps.

As a person with a dragon relic, Flos was well-versed in them. Thus, he recognized the man's movement. Although he had not seen it in person, he had read far too many records to recognize that movement after seeing it for the first time.

Before Flos could say further, Obstruction already moved.

Obstruction knew what Flos was about to do was very important that could end all this. Thus, he would do everything he could to stop anyone that would distract him.

He was called the Sovereign of Obstruction for a reason!

"I did not give you permission to move!"

Stella suddenly shouted as she reinforced her Time domain. As she did, she spat out a mouthful of blood. Nevertheless, she endured it to ensure that Obstruction would not be able to leave her domain's influence.

"Humph," Obstruction snorted as he also reinforced his domain.

Different from most domains, the target of Obstruction's domain was himself. Once inside its influence, his magic output will be doubled, and the space around him will expand.

But the expansion of Obstruction's domain was not visible to the naked eye. Its range also appeared small. Nevertheless, the space inside that small area had already increased. This was why, even when Stella used her domain, he was unaffected because he was already outside her range.

In other people's view, they would think Obstruction was still in her range.

Stella gritted her teeth in annoyance. She knew what Obstruction's domain could do, but she had thought she had gotten him inside her range earlier. She did not expect that he still managed to get out of it.

'Stay where you are.'

Kyran's voice suddenly sounded in Stella's head before she could pursue Obstruction.

'But—.'

'If you push yourself any further, your magic core will suffer. Don't do anything more, and just focus your domain around yourself and Neah.'

Stella admitted she felt elated that Kyran had shown concern over her well-being. But the last bit ruined it.

Typical of him to still think of a way to use her and protect Cyneah!

'Then I'll use my domain to focus on Flos.'

'No. Let him do what he wants,' Kyran told Stella upon her suggestion.

Stella hesitated. Obviously, she also knew what Flos's magic device could do.

Simply put, that magic device possesses the power of a dragon— Draconic magic. And Draconic magic is known for its destructiveness.

Flos was able to destroy a plane because of that magic device.

Kyran sensed Stella's hesitation and could not help but sigh inwardly. There were times when he wondered if she truly believed in him or not. Of course, Kyran knew Stella's hesitation stemmed from her 'feelings for him.'

'It's fine. I'll be fine,' Kyran assured her. He did not elaborate because he did not think it was necessary. Besides, they were in a race for time.

Without waiting for Stella's response, Kyran directed his thoughts to True Void and said, 'Do it!'

[Ack! Seriously, you! And I really mean you, seriously! Don't blame me for what happens, alright?]

Kyran did not respond and conveyed his annoyance at True Void's ranting from his silence.

[GAH! FINE! Here I go!]

The surface of True Void's mirror gave out a blinding light that illuminated the space between Cade and Obstruction.

At the same time, the disc on Obstruction's back shifted and split into rings before several space distortions appeared and filled those spaces.

As soon as True Void's light filled that area, that whole expanse crackled as the space distortion showed signs of 'petrification.'

Obstruction's eyes narrowed upon seeing this. He did not know whether True Void had truly absorbed the real Macabre Glacier, but he was sure that effect was not something the mirror possessed.

"Humph," he snorted, waving his hand as he willed the space distortion he summoned to explode. "Such a move would not daunt me."

Obsidian magic reinforced Cade's body turning into black armor as he avoided those explosions.

On the other hand, Flos focused his magic energy on the magic device as it also gave off a blinding light. Then he turned toward Cyneah and the Macabre Glacier at the back, and with a snap of his finger, a vast magic pressure fell down on them. It was then followed by a powerful magic fluctuation that surrounded them.

If there were two mirrors, Flos only had to focus on one, and he would know which one was fake from how Kyran would react.

Flos already knew Cyneah was important to the new Dark Sage. Thus, the latter's reason for turning True Void into the mirror.

Although Flos did not know if True Void turning into the Macabre Glacier would also possess its ability, it was unimportant. What mattered more was what the new Dark Sage would do.

Just as Flos expected, the moment he focused on Cyneah, Kyran also moved. However, when he did, Flos was suddenly given a fright.
