Fire Mage

Chapter 398: Urgency

On the other hand, the pain in Charles's heart started to increase exponentially.

In seconds, Charles's eyes turned blurry, and soon he fell on the grassy land.

But just as he was about to lose consciousness, a familiar face appeared in front of his eyes.

The final thing that flashed in front of his eyes was a crimson-haired female's face.

She was none other than Valerie!

Although Charles heard her panicking shout, he didn't even have any energy to say goodbye.

At that moment, he found himself enveloped by eternal darkness!

Alas, the pain in his heart never went down.

.

Instead, it continued to rise and finally shattered his soul fragment!

But it was just a start, though.

The heartbreak pain mysteriously traveled through the soul link and activated the mysterious curse in Charles's soul!

…

At present,

Outside of the Rebirth Tower, City of Iron.

Charles felt a similar sharp pain appeared from the depths of his heart.

Not only that, but he also noticed that the mysterious curse activated suddenly and increased the heart pain to several hundred levels!

In truth, the mysterious curse was called the 'Love Curse'!

Goddess Sasha knew that Charles would send a clone to help the Destiny Lady, so; she placed the curse on him as a backup plan!

Moreover, she influenced Charles's emotion with the power of 'Love'!

In truth, her sub-domain was Love Domain!

That's how she manipulated Titus to fall into her trap!

She orchestrated the Viscount Elliott's death incident and created an atmosphere for Titus to coincidentally encounter the wounded Daisy!

Charles sensed some anomaly at that time but couldn't perceive who was behind that incident.

No, he thought that it was the World's Will scheme and forgot about Goddess Sasha!

In a sense, Goddess Sasha secretly used the power of 'Love' and made a perfect trap for him.

But what's more ruthless was that she made several arrangements to erase his existence!

She knew that this Irregular could pose a threat to her plans. So, she became hell bend on erasing his existence.

To her surprise, the World's Will co-operated with her and even altered the many peoples' fate to kill him!

In reality, Goddess Sasha just put an outline to eliminate Charles.

The one who made everything possible was the World's Will!

As Charles groaned in pain, a deep crack appeared in his soul form.

No, the crack started to spread towards all parts of his soul!

In two seconds, more than 20 cracks appeared in many parts of his soul form!

Even Marcus got stunned by the sudden change and started to show hesitation.

At that moment, the greedy emotion stopped him from attacking Charles further.

'I want to enslave his soul! If I managed to enslave a wounded ancient mage's soul, I would get an endless amount of knowledge!' A smile appeared on his face.

On the other hand, Charles's mind went chaos for a moment!

'F*ck!' He cursed inwardly and turned his gaze towards the Rebirth Tower's top floor.

At that moment, he saw a white-haired old man looked at him from the inside and soon calmed down.

'Old man, it's time. Cast the big 'Miracle' spell on me.' Charles shouted in his mind.

'Got it.' An instant response came from the other side.

A moment later, a mysterious power came from the Rebirth Tower and soon entered his soul form.

But Charles knew that this was just the beginning.

He entered his Inner World and soon appeared in front of a giant lava pool without any delay.

Then, he raised his hand and pulled something from the lava lake.

A second later, a greenish-blue gem flew out of the lava lake and soon landed on his illusionary palm.

It was the exact gem that Ivy placed in his Inner World long ago!

He then activated his [Arcane Eyes] skill and looked deeply at the crystal's outer area.

Two runal words appeared on the crystal!

In truth, those two runal words were written using a pure form of law divine power.

Charles casually threw the greenish-blue crystal towards the sky and muttered.

"Rodia Daymoon!"

A second later, the greenish-blue gem shattered into millions of pieces and released a pure form of green flame.

The greenish flame started to expand at an unimaginable speed and spread in all directions.

In just five seconds, his whole Inner World was filled with pure green flames!

The green flame continued to absorb the crimson fire and convert them into greenish ones.

At that moment, the green flame also appeared in his soul form and even enveloped his body.

Then, the green flame repaired the cracks that appeared all over his soul!

The 'Love Curse' continued to break his soul on one side, while the mysterious 'Green Flame' tried its best to restore his soul!

Upon seeing this, Marcus knew that this ancient Mage was trying to heal his soul and decided to act.

Although he was a greedy mage, he knew when to give up.

'This guy is dangerous! That green flame is healing his soul!'

In his life, he never heard of a flame that could heal one's soul!

Without any delay, he raised his foggy hand and muttered.

"Dimensional Blade!"

The next instant, an invisible moved out of the Astral Plane and reappeared behind Charles's neck!

The next instant, the Dimensional Blade made a clean cut on his neck and decapitated him.

Simultaneously, Charles felt a sharp pain from his neck and hurriedly shifted his attention towards the outside world.

'Damn it! He decapitated my head!' He gritted his teeth and muttered.

"Heart of Fire!"

Rays of crimson fire came out of his Rebirth Fire Spell Model as he spoke and moved out of his Inner World.

Soon, the crimson rays completely enveloped his head and neck area and reattached his head to the body.

The next instant, Charles took control over his body and looked at Marcus's soul form with an icy look on his face.

Although he appeared invisible, Charles knew where he was hiding through the invisible string.

Upon sensing his gaze, Marcus got startled deeply and hurriedly flew in a different direction.

Then, he created another spatial crack near Charles's heart area and shifted his attention to cast a spell called "Soul Enslavement!"

But Charles acted one step faster.

He calmly controlled the invisible string and pulled his soul towards the newly opened spatial crack.

Unlike a human body, a mage's soul weight was just around 25 to 30 grams! (According to MacDougall's Experiment, the actual weight of a soul is 21 grams. Although the scientific community rejected this experiment, I put this one here as a reference. Also, I added a few more grams to show that Mage's souls are more like mutated ones.)

So, Charles faced no resistance from the other side!

"What is this!?" Marcus muttered in a shocked tone.

Still, he managed to remain calm and tried to close the spatial crack.

To his shock, another type of invisible power appeared around the spatial crack and blocked it from closing!

At that moment, he completely forgot to cast the [Soul Enslavement] spell!

Charles pulled Marcus out of the Astral Realm and released him into the Physical World in a blink!

Meanwhile, a humanoid fog-like thing started to manifest in front of his eyes and soon formed into an illusionary appearance of an old man!

Shock and horror appeared on his wrinkled face.

'F*ck! I need to escape!' He cursed inwardly and soon spoke.

"Astral Walk-"

Before he could cast his soul spell, Charles locked his gaze on Marcus and cast [Burning Thoughts] spell on him.

Simultaneously, he closed the distance between himself, appeared near Marcus's soul form, and spoke in a chilling voice.

"Burning Consciousness!"

A second later, a ball of purple flame appeared in Marcus's Inner World and soon formed into an appearance of a 28 years old young man.

But unlike Charles's original appearance, the burning consciousness appeared to be made of pure purple flame.
