Even if they lured Gorsa to the Kema Duchy, could Yura really intend to kill him?

Kira was also aware of Gorsa’s background. All she could say was that some people’s willfulness truly came from having the capital to be willful.

Kira didn’t understand the black tide or the Abyssal Eye. In her view, Gorsa, who came from a family with a fourth-rank wizard and was favored by them, was already a child of heaven, a carefree existence.

“You… when you hadn’t been resurrected yet, didn’t you always want to escape from Gorsa? Isn’t this good now? If you want the power of Kema Duchy, as long as you’re willing to be a qualified leader, I’m not unwilling to hand it over to you.”

But Yura waved her hand dismissively, as if uninterested. “You don’t understand.”

Kira didn’t want Kema Duchy to subsequently attract retaliation from the Glare Family, and still tried to persuade her, “Yura, if you want to harm Gorsa, setting aside whether you can succeed, but afterward you and I will definitely be struck down and retaliated against by the Glare Family. They have a fourth-rank wizard who could make you wish for death.”

Yura glanced at Kira. “You know nothing and have no right to speak.”

She raised her hand and sealed Kira’s mouth, making her upper and lower lips grow together directly.

“Glare doesn’t have the energy to look after Gorsa anymore. This is also my only chance. As for Gorsa, I won’t kill him. I’ll turn him into my pet, and then forever and ever, he’ll live according to my moods. Don’t you think that’s good?”

Kira widened her eyes. She didn’t know what had happened to Glare, nor was she clear about who was supporting Yura, but she felt that the Kema Duchy she had worked so hard to protect for so long was really going to have big problems!

Kira lowered her head, looking at her toes. Her feet restlessly rubbed against the ground.

Even though they were leather-soled shoes, they left several metallic scratch marks on the stone floor.

Very faint ones that probably only someone cleaning the floor would notice.

“I hope Keli can receive my message.”

Kira could only seek help from Keli, who had already left Kema. She was the formal wizard with the closest relationship to Kema Duchy. Most importantly, she should now be with the new master of the Borderland, Saul.

After doing all this, Kira raised her head and leaned back powerlessly in her chair, watching Yura who had fallen into madness.

For the first time, she hoped that her sister had really died accidentally in that experiment decades ago.

That way, her sister’s image would still be that of a wizard woman with boundless enthusiasm for knowledge.

…

Just as Yura was waiting for Gorsa to walk into her trap, Frim, who was holding Saul captive, received another message.

A Storm Eye had supposedly appeared in the Borderland!

Frim had only been holding Saul captive for less than a month, and he had already received two letters from the Glare Family asking him to release Saul.

Frim had ignored them all.

But now, a Storm Eye had appeared in the Borderland. Even if it was only suspected, it was a very serious matter.

The Borderland was located in the interior of Stat Continent. If a Storm Eye erupted within it, the entire Borderland would become a dead zone of aberrant pollution.

The black tide that erupted from Storm Eyes was not the same as the black tides from the far north and the Red Sea. The pollution concentration was not even in the same league.

And the Sighing Wall and Red Sea Tree forests, which mainly relied on resisting sea wave monsters to reduce the black tide’s impact on the continent, couldn’t function against Storm Eyes.

But the Borderland also had an advantage: even if the Storm Eye’s black tide fully erupted, it generally wouldn’t affect places outside the Borderland.

The Borderland was a naturally formed pollution residue field after repeated black tide eruptions.

Therefore, the Borderland had become a very special place. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ nοvelfire.net

No one hoped the Storm Eye would really erupt, but if the Storm Eye there really did erupt, several fourth-rank wizards all wanted to be the first to obtain the anchor points inside the Storm Eye.

Those were the most important resources for their research into the Abyssal Eye.

It was impossible to temporarily send a third-rank to search for the Storm Eye now – they lacked both experience and ability.

But should they just let Saul go back like this?

Frim was silent for a long time.

“Tell the Stargate Council that I’ll send Royer over here, and the Stargate Council can also send someone with rich combat experience against black tides.”

But the Stargate Council didn’t even consider this proposal.

They directly rejected Frim’s suggestion, then told Frim to release Saul and safely escort him to the Borderland, or they would no longer manage black tide affairs.

Upon receiving this message, Frim directly destroyed a section of Tribunal buildings.

At this time, Black Flame Emperor Elo came over with the advice of Sighing Wall wizard Murphy.

Ever since Stuart went missing during the fight against the black tide while impersonating him last time, Elo had never seen his confidant again.

Frim’s explanation was that his soul might have been mutated due to the excessively high black tide pollution concentration, making him impossible to find.

But Elo was completely unsatisfied with this answer.

Stuart wasn’t just Elo’s confidant – he was the wizard most likely to advance to fourth-rank in the Black Flame Empire’s future.

Even if he wasn’t Elo’s family, he was Elo’s chosen successor.

Now that Stuart wasn’t there, it meant that if anything happened to Elo in the future, the Black Flame Empire would have no fourth-rank wizards.

By then, whichever family or faction produced a new fourth-rank wizard would swallow up the Black Flame Empire.

And this kind of annexation and expansion war caused by upper-level power dynamics would be the most cruel. It might evolve into a war of extermination.

This was something Elo, who cared about his family, could not tolerate.

Therefore, he had directly left Evernight afterward and no longer discussed the Tribunal’s subsequent action plans with Frim.

But this time, concerning the Storm Eye, although he really didn’t want to see Frim, Elo still came.

He transformed into a ball of flame and appeared in the high sky above the Tribunal.

The moment he appeared, a warm yellow light sphere appeared opposite him.

“Frim, don’t forget the original purpose of establishing the Tribunal.”

Frim responded in a low voice.

“Resist the black tide, eliminate the Abyssal Eye. If we can’t do that, at least don’t let the Abyssal Eye erupt again, and preserve the seeds of the wizard world.”

Both fell silent for a moment.

“I’ve almost forgotten the first sentence.”

Because they couldn’t find a way to eliminate the Abyssal Eye, the Tribunal could only settle for the next best thing, resulting in everyone almost forgetting their ultimate goal now.

Finally, Elo spoke first, “No matter how powerful Nephret is, it can’t simultaneously resist black tide monsters attacking from two sides, so Stat Continent can’t have problems either. If the Borderland gets polluted again because of Saul, Murphy will definitely yield to the Stargate Council in the next anchor point competition.”

Frim still didn’t agree immediately.

Elo had to persuade again, “I know that because the stargate experiments have started, the Stargate Council has paid much less attention to black tides, but they won’t mind having a few more anchor points. Even if they can really transfer beyond the stargate, the pollution there won’t be much better than the wizard world.”

Frim sighed deeply. “I understand. Give me some time to consider.”

Elo knew that Frim was extremely arrogant, so trying to persuade him to change his mind was also very difficult. For more chapters visit novel•fire.net

If it weren’t for the suspected Storm Eye eruption, other reasons probably wouldn’t be able to move Frim.

He didn’t pressure the other party to make an immediate decision, as that might backfire.

Anyway, from discovering traces of a suspected Storm Eye to the Storm Eye finally appearing, there was generally a dormancy period of half a year to a year.

He could still wait. The Borderland could still wait.
