nThe Glimmer Cape was a Sovereign Artifact that had many functions and abilities. Unfortunately, Commander Graham from before failed to properly utilize this Artifact because of Vale’s overwhelming strength and, of course, Extraction Ability.

nAside from its ability to change its shape and size, it could also enhance the user’s spells and protect him from harm.

nIt was a versatile and powerful Artifact, and it was a perfect match for Chad.

nThe Glimmer’s immediately activated its ability as soon as Chad was in danger.

nIt wrapped around Chad’s body, and it shielded him from further damage caused by the Thunder Clap.

nFurthermore, it also healed his wounds and it restored some of his energy. This was probably the finest Defensive Artifact out there!

nHowever, it didn’t end there… After the two Dragons blessed him, they also imbued power to the Sovereign Artifact!

nIt restored Chad’s Draconic Energy in an instant!

nThen, the battle continued… It was a clash of Draconic Power and Mind Energy!

nThe Sage was actually using his Psychic Arts to suppress the Draconic Essence coming from Chad!

nChad and Sage Merlin continued to exchange blows, and they inflicted damage on each other.

nOf course, because of their actions, their battle had already caught the attention of the guards including the Marquis himself.

nHowever, a soft voice of a familiar woman reached their ears. She was telling them not to interfere in the battle!

n‘If I’m not mistaken, that was Sir Vale’s companion who’s always leading their Merchant Airship…’ Marquis Morgan thought as he ignored the battle outside and continued working on his papers.

nHe had plenty of things to do before he could commence with his coronation!

nHe simply informed the Black and White Knight to take care of the matter for him.

nSoon, the battle reached its climax…

nChad and Sage Merlin gathered their remaining energy and prepared for their final attack. They looked at each other, and there were no words that needed to be said.

nDuring their battle, they had already reached quite a distance from the castle… They were no longer suppressing their Spells!

nChad used his Dragon’s Fury, and unleashed a blast of fire and sound.

nOn the other hand, Sage Merlin used his Ice Storm, and unleashed a blast of ice and wind…

nDuring this battle, he had shown three Arcane Paths. They were Psychic Arts, Mystic Arts, and Elemental Arts!

nBoom!

nThe two attacks collided, and they created a huge explosion.

nIt was loud, and it echoed in the air. The explosion shook the ground, and it lit up the sky. It destroyed everything in its path.

nSoon, as the explosion subsided and the smoke and dust settled, it revealed the result.

nChad was standing, and he was breathing heavily. He had some burns and cuts, and he had some blood and dirt. However, he had a smile and relief after seeing his opponent.

nSage Merlin was lying, and he seemed to be barely conscious.

nHe had some wounds and bruises all over his body, and Chad could tell that the Sage was in a worse condition…

nEager to celebrate his apparent triumph, Chad contemplated approaching Sage Merlin. Despite recognizing the Sage as his adversary, he chose not to deliver the final blow, sensing that the Sage had similarly refrained from delivering a fatal strike during their battle.

nHowever, intending to claim the enigmatic staff as a token of victory, Chad was taken aback when he realized that the battle was far from over.

nUnbeknownst to Chad, Sage Merlin’s three disciples observed the confrontation from a distance with an air of composure and confidence, showing no signs of panic or intervention.

nHad Chad noticed their unwavering demeanor, he might have sensed that something was amiss. However, feeling disoriented, he failed to discern their significance.

nSoon, they all heard the Sage’s laugh.

n“Hahaha… So fighting against a Dragon’s Disciple would be this hard without using Divinity and other Spells…” Sage Merlin said as he continued laughing.

nIt was as if the battle he just had wasn’t life-threatening!

nAs the echoing laughter subsided, an aura of energy enveloped Sage Merlin, emanating a divine glow that seemed to mend his wounds and rejuvenate his body!

n‘What is this? Holy Spell?!’ Chad gritted his teeth.

nWitnessing this display of power, Chad felt a sense of dread as the Sage’s might surpass even that of Magnus or even Manager Faith’s power, leaving him awestruck and apprehensive.

nAs for comparing it with Vale, he couldn’t really say since he had never seen Vale go all out.

nThe Sage then clenched his fist as he felt the power emanating throughout his whole body.

nTurning his gaze toward Chad, Sage Merlin’s eyes gleamed with an unsettling intensity.

n“Young man, I will give you one last chance to bring me to the Dragon’s Summoner.” He declared, his voice resonating with an ominous undertone.

nFeeling the weight of the Sage’s words, Chad realized the gravity of the situation.

nHowever, he remained steadfast in his decision and refused the Sage’s demand. Now that he knew how strong the Sage was, there was no way he would allow Vale to meet him!

n“I can’t help you with that, Sage Merlin… Why don’t you find him yourself?”

nA tense atmosphere filled the air as the three disciples shook their heads. It seemed that they knew that this was truly their master’s last offer.

n“Then, you will be my slave…”

nThe Sage then triggered his formidable Mind Control empowered by Divinity. He directed his gaze towards Chad, preparing to exert his influence over him.

nYet, as the Sage was about to enact his compelling manipulation, a startling turn of events unfolded.

nCountless bats materialized, encircling Chad and forming a protective barrier around him.

nUnfortunately, his Mind Control could only work on a targeted individual and not in a large area.

nHis spell was thwarted as a random bat was hit instead…

nAs their numbers grew larger, it also disrupted his concentration.

n“Pests!”

nHe wanted to burn them all into ashes!

nHowever, as he was about to throw his spell, the bats quickly scattered, catching the Sage off guard!

nThen, as he looked at Chad’s previous spot, he realized the young man was missing!

nChad had vanished along with the bats!
