The Wizard's Pursuit of Truth

Eventually, even the True Transformation Witchcraft might not be enough for Wang Ya to escape the Dream World.

An ordinary Dream Wizard, let alone feasting voraciously as he had, would already be at their limit after staying in the Dream World for a month or two. When it was time to leave, they would have to make preparations in advance, and it would take half a day just to return to the real world.

Wang Ya had now been in the Dream World for a full two months.

He had left himself a final half-month.

He would use the favorable environment of the Dream World to create two pre-designed Middle-tier Witchcrafts.

’At the very least, I have to create one of them.’

「Dark Land Headquarters」

Zack Antuun walked out of the laboratory, looking somewhat weary.

But having finished making several powerful Puppets, a smile spread across his face.

This was a subsequent application of the Puppet Inheritance Witchcraft.

The powerful Puppets he crafted had power comparable to that of a Level 2 Wizard Apprentice.

Among Wizard Apprentices, swarm tactics could play a huge role.

It was fair to say Zack Antuun had been spurred on by Wang Ya.

The Beast Tide of Extraordinary Creatures in the Secret Realm, which had surged like an ocean tide, was still the most unforgettable scene seared into his mind.

Clenching his fist, Zack Antuun had gradually regained his confidence in recent days.

’I’m not that much weaker than Wang Ya Harak. In a rematch, without the troublesome environment of the Secret Realm, I’ll be the one using swarm tactics.’

’The tables have turned.’

Suddenly, Zack Antuun frowned as a message came through his Wizard Mark.

Dante of the Qiuji Clan was inviting him to a Salon Association meeting to discuss the duel challenge that was causing such a stir.

He found it a little strange. ’What’s happened at the Dark Land Headquarters now?’

He had been holed up in his clan’s laboratory researching Puppet technology recently.

So he really wasn’t up to date.

As Zack Antuun pushed open the door and entered, all eyes in the room turned to him, their gazes both probing and curious.

The strange looks made Zack Antuun raise an eyebrow, but he still found a place to sit.

Almost everyone participating in the Salon Association was a prodigy from the Wizard Clans, the same group that had shone so brightly during the Secret Realm competition.

Their circle was on a completely different level from that of ordinary Wizard Apprentices.

Dante leaned back on the sofa and chuckled. ”You look like you’re doing just fine.”

”What are you all talking about!” Zack Antuun’s frown deepened.

Jim Novy said in surprise, ”You mean you don’t know? Your brother, Hades, is going to fight Wang Ya Harak to get revenge for you. The rumor is that you were completely crushed after being defeated by him and haven’t recovered...”

Once he understood the full situation, Zack Antuun was so shocked he nearly fainted on the spot.

Riley Shebel stuck out his long tongue and licked his lips. ”The entire Dark Land Headquarters is watching and waiting for Wang Ya Harak’s response—whether he’ll refuse or accept the challenge. It’s been almost three months since the challenge was issued. If he doesn’t reply soon, the Illusory Dream Lineage is going to lose face completely.”

”I’m afraid even the other Inheritance Lineage Wizards within the School Lineage will start looking at Wang Ya Harak differently.”

Guterres spoke up. ”It is a bit strange. Hades is also a Level 2 Wizard Apprentice. Wang Ya Harak’s Power is more than sufficient; he shouldn’t be afraid to accept the challenge.”

”A Wizard from an Inheritance Lineage needs to be powerful in every respect. They would never fear a challenge from someone of the same Level... If Wang Ya Harak sets a precedent by refusing to fight out of fear, well, that would be amusing,” Riley Shebel said with excitement.

After all, it was the School Lineage that would lose prestige, not them. As members of the Wizard Clans, they were quite happy to watch it unfold.

Zack Antuun gritted his teeth. ”Me, crushed and unable to recover? What a joke! I wish I could fight Wang Ya Harak again right this instant!”

”Who the hell is the bastard that spread this rumor!”

The others looked at him even more strangely.

Dante said with a grin, ”It was your father.”

Zack Antuun: ”...”
