Throne of Magical Arcana

Chapter 792: Nightfall

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At the beginning of the new year, the weather in Holm was still gloomy and cold. It seemed to have been a long time since anyone saw the sun. In Allyn, on the other hand, vague mist spread out into a blurry world around it. In the darkness caused by the mist, stars rose in sophisticated trajectories, constructing dense and thick magic circles.

All the steam magic trains bound for Allyn were instructed to stand by, and all the sorcerers who returned from the outside world and who were about to leave the City in the Sky, after witnessing the mist, realized that the defense of Allyn had been activated and knew better to barge into it based on their common sense.

Some of the sorcerers who happened to be trapped in the mist found themselves teleported to the streets of Allyn after a while of dizziness.

“Why has the defense of Allyn been activated?”

Both the members of the Highest Council, such as Atlant and Erica, and the grand arcanists, such as Oliver and Vicente, were rather surprised and confused after they perceived the changes of the City in the Sky.

However, they had received a message that was sent out by Hathaway, who was watching over the City in the Sky, as well as Douglas and Brook. It stated that for a certain important and urgent reason, the defense of Allyn would be temporarily activated for forty minutes at most. Then, everything would be back to normal, and they would report the reason and receive the investigation of the Highest Council.

The members of the Highest Council were not infuriated by that, because according to the regulations of the Congress of Magic, in case of emergencies that could not be reported to the other experts in time, the grand arcanist who was watching over the City in the Sky could take expediencies after being approved by the president or the vice president. It was obvious that neither Douglas nor Brook objected to it.

What they were confused about was actually the urgency of the matter, which did not even give Hathaway enough time to inform them. Such a thing never happened before. After all, the legendary sorcerers all had their own demiplanes that were connected to the Allyn magic tower. It was very convenient to reach out to them.

Concerns and speculations brewed in their heart. Suddenly, they saw a run rising in the mist and illuminating everything around!

Under the sun, continuous and highly-rising mountains, exuberant forests, clear lakes that were as peaceful as mirrors, and meadows that looked like carpets appeared inside the mist in turns, as if the whole City in the Sky had been teleported into a different world.

“Linsorde?”

“The Land of Truth?”

“The World in Mirror?”

The different references that flashed in the mind of the experts had the same meaning. It was the demiplane of Douglas, the Emperor of Arcana and the president of the Congress of Magic!

Had it been manifested in the main material world?

It was not entirely unachievable. With the assistance of magic circles, Oliver and the other grand arcanists were all capable of that. However, it was pointless. Same as the alternate dimensions, demiplanes were rejected by the main material world. Even though it was manifested in this place, it would be no different from arriving through projection or borrowing the power of the demiplane. It was a complete waste of time and materials.

Before they figured out what was going on, astonishing changes happened in the Land of Truth again!

The blue sky where the sun was shining suddenly turned dark, and the sun became smaller and smaller, until it was only slightly brighter than common stars.

A boundless cosmos arrived. Stars, planets, asteroids, comets, and everything else functioned according to the motion law of celestial bodies connected into systems and nebulas. Some of the places did not have the slightest light, as if even the rays had been entirely absorbed.

“The celestial bodies motion system... Is this part of Mr. President’s cognitive world?”

Because of the blockage of the defense of Allyn, Oliver could only see the appearance. He made a conclusion based on that.

“The demiplane and the cognitive world are combining in such a way. Maybe...” Vicente considered possibilities without any cases that he could refer to. He had a vague guess.

After the unexpected incident, the few legendary sorcerers who were not far away from each other had already talked through their demiplanes and exchanged their opinions.

Such an unusual phenomenon had never happened before, and so, it was particularly thrilling. Considering that Lucien Evans discovered the sun a few months ago, how could those legendary not have any speculation?

At this moment, the real sky suddenly turned dark. The citizens of Rentato immediately had the feeling that the noon sky had turned into the late-night sky.

“The sky in my place has turned dark, too...” In the capital of the Duchy of Calais, Erica stared at the sky that was as dark as ink and spoke with a shivering voice of disbelief.

“What? The sky in Cocus is darkened too?” Oliver repeated, finding it hard to believe.

They had personally experienced and witnessed many unusual phenomena caused by the half-solidification and solidification of cognitive worlds. It was not unusual that the advancement into the peak of legendary could affect a country, but such a massive darkening was too unbelievable.

Very soon, they received feedback from the local branches of the Congress of Magic.

The sky in Brianne was darkened!

The sky in the Solar Islands, the Pearl Islands, and the ocean around was darkened!

The sky in the north coastline and the neighboring area was also darkened!

In the meantime, in the Holy Heilz Empire, the Schachran Empire, the Duchy of Orvarit, the Dark Mountain Range, the Boundless Ocean, and every other place, regardless of whether it was day or night, the sky had been reduced into pitch darkness, as if the sunlight had been blocked and absorbed by something!

In the Holy City, Melmax was obviously stunned for a moment. At first, he thought that a certain saint reached the peak of legendary, but he denied the idea very soon. With his capabilities at the peak of legendary and his control over the defense of the Holy City, it was impossible for him to have neglected the godly power that was supposed to arrive overwhelmingly. On the contrary, he sensed no anomalies at all in the range under his watch!

“What happened?” Melmax looked at the sky, hoping to find some clues. In the meantime, he activated the divine power circle of the Holy City in case of unexpected attacks. Whether or not Benedict III gave any order, he had to do that. It was the responsibility of the captain of Temple Knights who was stationed in Lance.

In the dark and sunless sky, stars that felt both real and illusionary shined brilliantly, with indescribable mysteriousness.

They were moving in the sky slowly, as they had always been and would always be.

“This... This is the starry sky of destiny!” Although Melmax was a knight, he had fought sorcerers for many years and had a deep understanding of them. So, he realized what the starry sky was without any trouble.

Suddenly, his pupils constricted violently, and one of the illusionary stars in the sky glowed, eclipsing all the other stars of destiny. Then, the star launched down a brilliant but flashing light, which landed on the ground somewhere far away like a laser.

Melmax turned around abruptly and appeared out of Benedict III’s residence in a blink. He had a terrible feeling!

“What? His Holiness is praying and not to be disturbed?” Faced with the red robes that guarded Benedict III’s residence, even Melmax, an expert who had the manners of a knight, could barely control himself.

Did the pope not notice the astonishing phenomenon outside?

The red robes shook their heads. “His Holiness did not give any instruction on that.”

“Then, go in and report it immediately. I believe you’ve seen the changes in the sky,” Melmax urged while he searched for the source of the anomaly with divine power items.

“The City in the Sky? Douglas is trying to break into the demigod level?” Melmax clutched his longsword tightly.

At this moment, the trajectory of destiny that had been covered by Douglas and Brook was already clear. After all, everybody had seen the unusual phenomenon!

“Lord Melmax, I have used the way of contact for emergencies, but His Holiness did not give any reply...” The red robe looked rather scared.

Melmax calmed down. “I’ll go to Allyn now. Perhaps His Holiness has gone there to stop them when the sky was darkened without having the time to inform us.”

He could only comfort himself in such a way. How could the pope be out of reach at such a critical moment? He couldn’t have been in an alternate dimension, could he?

Inside the Dark Mountain Range...

“What? The Primordial Ancestor cannot be found?” Dracula glared at Danisos with his crimson eyes. They were shocked by the unusual phenomenon even though they were in the Dark Mountain Range.

The wounds on Danisos’ back hadn’t even recovered yet. He replied, not in a good mood, “We can’t find her or reach out to her. The Observer is gone too.”

The legendary experts like the Demogorgon of Eyes and the Elder Mind all felt a headache coming on. They knew that their president wasn’t too reliable, and they had been prepared that all of them had to search for her through hard work, but they did not know that it would happen so quickly...

The Elder Mind thought for a moment and said, “Perhaps, she’s already gone to Allyn. The president is close to the Congress of Magic. Douglas must’ve asked for her protection before he made the attempt.”

“That should be the case... We ought to take a look at it too. Perhaps we can learn a thing or two from the process.” Ogre, the Umbral King, was both frustrated and delighted.

Similar things were happening in the depths of the Boundless Ocean and the ninth level of hell. As for the abyss, the Demogorgon of Darkness could not allow the Will of Abyss to arrive at the main material world without preparations.

...

One of the stars of destiny left a narrow, long, and brilliant path behind, which fell at the center of the cognitive world and the Land of Truth precisely.

“Mr. President is trying to break into the demigod level...”

Oliver and the other legendary sorcerers realized what was going on. They looked at the process in both shock and wariness.

...

Inside the World of Souls, in the projection of the Dark Mountain Range...

After the Lord of Hell leaped out of the crater, the burning fire of hell on the ground surged toward the spherical magic circle. From the projection of hell, huge devils arrived in legions that looked like tides.

Caught unprepared, Fernando only had the time to stop Maltimus with the Storm Barrier, but he was unable to block the other devils and the fire of hell.

At this moment, a cold wind that felt like it came from the darkest and filthiest place blew out of the power of the World of Souls that was absorbed by the spherical magic circle. Immediately, the fire of hell died out, and the devils attacked their companions or brutalized themselves crazily...

The strong sense of familiarity stunned Viken who was fighting the Silver Moon in the sky. Had he come, too?

It was exactly Monster Viken, his other self!

Although he still couldn’t leave the Realm of Gates, he could briefly spread out his power in the World of Souls through special arrangements!
