Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 1275: Section 1276: Blood Light Enveloping

Off the coast of Old Earth Continent, a crack suddenly tore through the azure sky.

Three figures emerged from the crack.

The two men leading the way were dressed like nobility, followed a step behind by a youth in a White Bear costume, who appeared somewhat uncontrollably agitated.

These three were none other than Mentor Sanders and his Apprentices, along with White Bear Hobson.

After confirming that Dororo’s visions were almost all related to Eulica, Angel decided to take the White Bear with him.

With the White Bear’s choice, and the recent sighting of Eulica, there was certainly an inner connection between the two, perhaps the White Bear was the key to restraining Eulica’s frenzied madness!

...
“Is that Edge Island up ahead?” the White Bear inquired, gazing at the faint outline of the coast in the distance, “Why… would she come here?”

White Bear was still unaware of Eulica’s true identity, but since her childhood memories had been erased, the person involved must be a Transcendent. And Transcendents, why would they come to this Forbidden Land of the Elemental Wizards?

Although White Bear was not of the Element side, he felt quite uncomfortable even before approaching Edge Island.

“When you see her, you’ll know why,” Angel replied before taking out the Gondola and boarding the vessel first.

Soon, the fantastical silhouette of the Gondola swept across the sky and vanished from sight.

Angel was at full throttle, flying as fast as possible towards Pat Manor. If not for the need to take White Bear with him, he would have even considered using the Gravity Meridian to fly.

The fact that Eulica had gone mad had completely caught Angel off guard. From Frode’s descriptions, Lyon was in low spirits, radiating a sense of fear even in the Wilderness of Dreams.

Angel couldn’t begin to imagine what Lyon had gone through, or what Pat Manor had turned into now.

Seeing Angel’s deeply furrowed brow, Sanders knew what his Apprentice was worried about. He tapped the table lightly, and a crisp sound accompanied by a surge of strange energy entered Angel’s ears, instantly clearing his mind of its troubles.

“Don’t overthink it. You had Dororo make another Prophecy afterwards, didn’t you? So, set your mind at ease,” Sanders advised.

Angel nodded. When they left Illusion Demon Island, he had requested Dororo to check on Pat Manor again for him. This time, however, Dororo’s vision was even more blurred than before. But what he could decipher was that, at least for now, both Lyon and Jon seemed to be unaffected.

“I understand,” Angel whispered. With the help of Sanders’ Spell Technique, he temporarily cleared his troubled thoughts and began to ponder the reason behind the madness.

“Why would she suddenly go mad?” Angel murmured softly. Not including his travels, the last time he returned to Pat Manor, he had stayed there for nearly half a year.

During that time, he never noticed anything wrong with Eulica.

After Suise returned, Eulica showed no abnormalities, and perhaps due to some emotional reason, she even became gentler.

But what was the catalyst that drove her into madness?

According to the Tea Party news from the Kulakuka Tribe’s young girl, Eulica’s change had likely not occurred within recent months. Perhaps as far back as half a year ago, Eulica had already been exhibiting strange symptoms, but since she often stayed alone in the stilt house, few people noticed.

The reason triggering Eulica’s frenzy must have appeared long before, possibly lurking inside her all the while.

“Could it be…” Angel suddenly thought of something, looking up towards Sanders seated opposite of him, “Mentor, if a Wizard’s spiritual power suffered a great trauma, could it cause them to descend into madness?”

Sanders replied, “It depends on the extent of the injury and how deep the frenzy goes.”

Angel looked puzzled, waiting for Sanders to continue.

“Spiritual power sustaining injury could indeed change a person’s behaviour drastically, but it’s not from a fundamental change in their personality. It’s a chain reaction caused by damage to the spiritual power. A frenzied state resulting from such a cause is possible; it’s mostly about feeling mental discomfort and trying to vent dissatisfaction through madness, reckless behavior, and willfulness.”

“For an Official Wizard, such behavioral frenzy can be controlled.”

Angel frowned, “Are you saying that uncontrollable madness would not be due to spiritual damage?”
