Chapter 239 Blood Rogue’s Appearance
“Magus Leylin! In my authority as the vice team leader of the defense squad, you will temporarily be expropriated! Those darned dark Magi bastards are plundering our headquarters and killing our family and friends. I need you! Let us go and resist the enemy!”
Dolorin looked as if he was in a frenzy and was burning with rage. It looked like he was truly loyal to Four Seasons Garden.
As a large light Magi organisation, Four Seasons Garden had a very strong sense of unity.
Hence, even under such circumstances, many official Magi, and even acolytes, were willing to risk their lives and fight.
“My apologies, but I won’t do it!” Leylin unenthusiastically spoke.
“What did you say?” Dolorin became wide-eyed, unwilling to believe what he was hearing.
“I said I won’t! I am now the patrolling inspector at the headquarters! Just my position alone means that I have the same level of authority as that dead team leader of yours. Even he didn’t have the power to command me to do anything, much less you.”
Leylin squinted, causing Dolorin to seethe with rage.
“You… you dare…” Dolorin gestured at Leylin, his finger trembling.
Though his lips twitched, he did not say a word. Leylin’s reason could not be refuted, and with his current position, he did not have the authority to order Leylin, who held a higher position, to do anything.
“Well then, Lord Leylin! Where are you going?”
Dolorin suddenly asked with his fists tightly clenched and his eyes fixed on Leylin.
“Are you trying to mind my business?” Leylin’s spoke in a low register as he looked at this burly man.
“Of course not! It’s just that an envoy just came down from the headquarters and is standing guard at Experiment Zone 3. I think you might want to see him?” Dolorin lowered his head, though his words showed he had no intents of backing down.
“An envoy from the headquarters?” Leylin furrowed his brows. This was a key position and represented the will of the entire Four Seasons Garden. This person obviously had a position that was much higher than his temporary role as a patrolling inspector.
“Why wasn’t I informed of this? Who is it?” Leylin asked on.
“It’s Lord Reynold’s personal disciple, Lord Wade!” The name that came out of Dolorin’s mouth was unexpected, but at the same time logical.
“So it’s him! No wonder!” Leylin nodded.
Wade was a Magus who had been raised in Four Seasons Garden, from when he had been a regular human till he became an acolyte and then further became a Magus. His entire being had a close connection to Four Seasons Garden, and he was definitely loyal.
On top of that, the person in charge here was Reynold, who was also his teacher. In terms of communication and connections, he had a natural advantage.
“It’s going to be troublesome to have an envoy come down at this time…” Leylin’s heart lurched.
Immediately after, Dolorin stared straight at Leylin. “My lord, think about it…”
“Since it’s an envoy from the headquarters and the situation is somewhat dire now, I’ll have to meet him!” Leylin said indifferently.
Surveying the area, he noted that the dark and light Magi were immersed in battle and nobody had the time to pay any attention to him.
Also, they were in a corner and there was little chance of them being seen from afar.
After having noted this situation, the expression on Leylin’s face became calmer as he tucked his hands into his sleeves.
“That’s good… Ah…”
What appeared on Dolorin’s face was glee, followed by a complicated glint in his eyes, as if some sort of evil plan was brewing in his mind. However, all of this was immediately destroyed by a pair of flaming, crimson palms.
These crimson palms had blood red flames that went through Dolorin’s innate defense spell formation like paper and pierced right into his chest.
A flash of disbelief passed Dolorin’s face before he turned into a pile of ashes under the blood-red flames.
Leylin calmly retracted his hands. He was now the number one being who was second only to rank 2 Magi. Dolorin was a rank 1 Magus who was not even at the peak yet. Leylin had gone all out and mounted a sneak attack, and hence Dolorin had been killed in a single attack.
From within the ashes, a hint of grey light rose and turned into a grey skull that pounced towards Leylin.
“Oh! A secret imprint? I never expected Dolorin to have something like this!”
Blood red glints flashed by his eyes and two crimson rays shot out of his pupils which landed on the imprint in a straight line.
*Sssii!* Large amounts of white mist rose, and under the crimson rays, the skull imprint dispersed. It turned into little grey spots that disappeared into the air.
This was the same type of imprint that Bosain and Torash, who had both been killed by Leylin, possessed. This was an imprint that Magi used to mark those they wanted to take revenge on.
