The Geared Immortal

Chapter 814

(Unedited)

…

The power of Gima Santon surges like a tidal wave as it grows stronger by the second. Shin Jiao could feel its strength coursing through the air as it slowly grows like an intangible giant blob monster. From one look it could be seen that Gima Santon seems to have transformed into a 6-meters-tall gigantic sludge monster.

Looking at the thing that was Gima Santon, Shin Jiao waves the black katana in his hand and slice through the air as he cut through an incoming fragment of energy that flew towards him.

Everything is uncontrollable now and the manor has now been totally engulfed inside a storm of chaotic mana.

Within the rubbles, a figure slowly emerges… Emil Vanatia did not die as he was blown away when Shin Jiao was hit by the old man's power. He was not able to move or even shout at that time due to fear and the sheer petrifying effect of the chaotic mana in the air.

Now that he is seeing another clash is about to happen, Emil Vanatia did not think further and immediately ran away from the manor.

When he was able to forcefully limps outside of the manor, he looks back and a sign of fear is clearly written all over his face.

When he turns around, his eyes landed on the people that are running away from the manor ground. Then suddenly a crafty glint appears in his eyes as he thought of something. Then he began walking towards a certain direction of the village.

…

The already dark night sky turned darker as the dark cloud covered the moon and the stars.

The whole village is enveloped in fear as they all could feel the strong power of an Arch-mage.

"We have to leave the village! Everyone, evacuate the village!" shouted the middle-aged man which was echoed by the people around him.

Everyone is in a panic now as they ran away out of their homes bringing only what they could for fear of dying if they linger longer.

As the villagers evacuate the area, the strong mana fluctuations in the air have already disturbed everything in a 20 kilometers radius.

Those who have a weak will and could not control mana that is coursing through their bodies feel weaker and sluggish.

In the midst of this turmoil and confusion, some people are inside the shop of Jason Mirk. The Mur family is among them, along with Im Ao, Im Jae, and Nariz Gumal. Jason Mirk is pacing back and forth while looking a bit worried.

"Do you think Master Shin is fine? I mean, that's an Arch-mage, right?" Jason Mirk said with fear clearly written in his eyes.

"Dad, is the man they call Master Shin more powerful than the mages from the Great White Tower of Dugal?" an innocent voice asked Fabio Mur.

Upon hearing this everyone was quiet, but then Im Ao who seems to be younger than Mario Mur who is 9-years-old suddenly stands up.

"Of course he is… He will be able to survive, but for us, we should be wary… I think we have an enemy coming." Im Ao said as he suddenly takes out his sword and shield.

Seeing the reaction of her brother, Im Jae also did not hesitate to activate her armor and takes out her weapon and shield.

Meanwhile, Nariz Gumal stood on ready as she put one of her hands on the handle of the handgun resting inside the holster on her body hidden by her jacket.

The reaction of the three people made everyone around them showed confusion in their eyes. They did not know what those three are saying so they were all confused.

But soon their confusion turned into fear as the front door of the shop was blasted open by a powerful wave of energy.

Ka-boom!

Everything inside the shop was turned into debris as the explosion was too intense. But the inner part of the shop where Jason Mirk's house is, actually did not suffer anything.

Jason Mirk showed a pained look in his eyes as the things that are displayed in his shop were his life's work and money for him. If he could sell everything in that shop it would gain him a couple of hundreds of gold coins.

However, now everything is in ruins and he did not know how much of it was left.

His fear was suddenly changed into anger and remorse. He was angry at the person who attacked his shop and remorseful that he has included himself in this mess.

From the dust cloud someone slowly enters the ruined shop and when the people inside saw who it was everyone showed fear in their eyes.

It was High Mage Emil Vanatia, the person who schemed against Master Shin and was thought to have died when the Arch-mage attacked Shin Jiao.

However, now that he is standing in front of everyone they were all afraid and did not expect to see that he is still alive.

"Hahaha… I knew that you rats would hide in here! Now I will take those three as hostages and no one can stop me…" Emil Vanatia said with a thought that the people in front of him are just lowly commoners and low-level mages.

How could they fight against a High Mage like him? They would all just die without a corpse if they resisted. However, he would not kill those three. He knew that they hold importance to the man fighting against the elder of their Mage Tower; hence, he wanted to capture them and take them hostage. With those three as a hostage, then the elder would be able to defeat the man and he would have gained some merit for his help.

With this in mind, Emil Vanatia takes a step forward.

Upon seeing this, Im Ao stood in front of his sister while wielding his short sword and shield.

"Sister, I will protect you, so don't worry…" he said in an immature voice.

Seeing this, the heart of Mario Mur was suddenly awoken, and his desire to protect his parents suddenly drowned his fears.

He also stood in front of his mother and held her hand.

Suddenly, a powerful fluctuation erupted from the direction of the manor and it seems to send tremor all over the village.

The tremor was powerful enough to make the people lose their balance and fall to the ground.

Everyone showed fear in their eyes as they saw a mushroom cloud looming in the air and the whole manor ground seems to have been turned into a large crater.

But this explosion and tremor seem to have calmed the chaotic flow of mana making everyone who was caught in its radius, feel that their strength has returned to their bodies.

Emil Vanatia showed a hint of suspicion in his eyes as he did not know what is happening right now. He was about to catch a hostage for the elder, but it seems that the elder did not need his help.

With a smirk on his face, he looks at the people staying inside the inner part of the shop then waves his hand to send a basketball-size fireball.

"I don't think I need you 'people' anymore…" he said with a sinister smile.

Jason Mirk and the Mur couple showed fear in their eyes. They knew that with the power of a High Mage their lives are already forfeited, but the child amidst the three adults showed a glint of determination in his eyes.

Meanwhile, Im Ao, Im Jae, and Nariz Gumal just stood there looking at the man who is forming a large fireball in his extended palm.

"Die! Hahaha!" Emil Vanatia shouted like a crazy person as his hair rose up with the force of the fireball launching towards the inner part of the shop.

Ka-boom!

The ground shook and another mushroom cloud rose up in the air. Although it is not as significant as the large one from the manor, it still attracted some people's eyes.

"Hahaha… That's what you people get for going against the Great White Tower of Dugal!" shouted Emil Vanatia as he tried to catch his breath while staggering on the ground.

He has expended a lot of his mana and feels a bit weak.

He slowly turns around and wanted to leave, but he suddenly stopped.

This is because he noticed a sharp blade sticking from his chest. The blade is crimson red and is dripping with blood.

He felt a stinging pain before feeling his strength leaving his body.

He then noticed a small hand holding his shoulder and as he turns around he saw a smirking face and small body clinging to his back like a monkey.

He could not react anymore as his body slumps to the ground as he breathes his last.

When his body fell to the ground, Im Ao rolled and stood up while patting the dust off his robe.

"Hehe… Easy peasy…" the immature voice of Im Ao said as he strode back to the stunned group.

But before he could walk near them, he suddenly felt something behind him.

"Oh, no! Danger!" he exclaimed in his mind.
