Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 1086: Section 1087: A Close-quarters Skirmish

Angel’s situation was indeed as Sanders had imagined, very safe.

Although the area was surrounded by a rolling sea of fire, the spot where the Misty Cabin stood was covered by the Domain of Wind, preventing any flames from eroding into the yard.

Fafnir even occasionally grabbed a few roasted demons from the sea of fire outside to eat, which could be described as very comfortable.

In this yard, Angel naturally faced no danger.

However, his thoughts were actually on the floating ice in the sky. There was something unusual about the blood in his hands, and he had a vague premonition that perhaps Sanders was on the floating ice in the sky. The thought alone caused Angel’s mood to start fluctuating.

“I do not forbid you to leave, but do you think you can fly safely up to the sky?” Fafnir asked with a raspy voice, as she picked at her teeth and coldly taunted Angel.

Although she had been enjoying the show, she had also caught glimpses of Angel’s movements out of the corner of her eye.

Upon hearing this, Angel’s face darkened.

Indeed, he was self-aware. The demons usually left him alone, allowing him to run his shop because Fafnir was close by. But if he were to fly up into the sky now, without Fafnir’s protection, he was sure to be torn to shreds.

Also, he wasn’t entirely sure his guess was correct. Maybe Sanders wasn’t on the floating ice, and going up there could just be asking for trouble.

Beyond that, there was another factor restraining his impulsive thoughts.

Angel turned to look at the ice ball hovering over his shoulder. Binaqionse’s dragon scales were currently charging the Icebound Hex, and it couldn’t be put away into his bracelet yet. If he left this place, causing Toby to accidentally run into trouble, it would be terrible.

So, for various reasons, Angel restrained himself.

As long as he knew that Sanders hadn’t fallen in the Spatial Passage, there would always be a time to meet.

While Angel was thinking this way, suddenly, a thunderous boom came from outside. Moreover, the source of the sound was very close to him. The instant the sound exploded, Angel’s heart skipped a beat, and all the hairs on his body stood on end.

After calming his emotions with effort, Angel looked towards the source of the sound.

He saw that less than two hundred meters from the Misty Cabin, a pitch-black hole had appeared, and on either side of the hole stood two figures.

Originally, this was the main thoroughfare that led straight to the core area. But since the fire from the sky had fallen and the corpses of demons had crashed down, it turned into a sea of fire that burned everything around, including the forest outside the Misty Cabin.

Angel tried to look through the flames to see the situation outside, but the blazing fire in the sea of flames kept darting about, obscuring his vision.

The only thing he could see was the two figures facing off outside, both appearing to have graceful figures, likely two women.

Moreover, these two figures seemed somewhat familiar to Angel.

Angel was itching to see clearly what was happening outside. But with the Domain of Wind shielding him, he couldn’t extend his Spirit Tentacles out. As his curiosity grew unbearable, Angel turned his attention to the indolently lounging Fafnir.

Angel approached with a sheepish expression, “Honorable Fafnir, this humble human has a request…”

After a while, Angel was enveloped in a layer of faint breeze, a favor he had secured from Fafnir. When he extended his Spirit Tentacles outside the Domain of Wind, they didn’t trigger the wind realm’s defense mechanism.

In front of Fafnir, a variety of food that Angel had brought from the Wizards’ Realm was piled up, including Magic Marrow Meat, beauty shells, the Gourmet Sorcerer’s special roast meat seasoning pack… as well as Dairy Fruit Tree sap, and several bottles of fine wine that Lyon had insisted he take.

Angel knew that Fafnir was purely treating the battle in the sky as a theatrical performance, and like any show, it was incomplete without delicious accompaniments. Through the exchange of these small items, Angel successfully secured his “ticket” to watch the show.

Before, he could only look up at the sky, but with the flame and the Domain of Wind as obstructions, his view wasn’t very clear. Now that his Spirit Tentacles could pass through the Domain of Wind, his view became much clearer than before.

Angel couldn’t wait to extend his Spirit Tentacles out.
