Fire Mage

Chapter 432: Entering the Trap

In a few seconds, Charles appeared above the castle's keep and looked around.

Even though it's been more than an hour since he infiltrated the castle, the thousands of elite knights and Duke Michael stood vigilantly in the same position and were waiting for him patiently!

Of course, Charles hadn't thought of disappointing them, though. He actually thought of giving them a small lesson.

'I also have to kill that Demon Sorcerer who is specialized in blood magic.' A cold glint appeared in his illusionary eyes.

In a few more minutes, he moved towards the sky, crossed the strange chaotic black barrier, and finally reached the dark clouds.

The next instant, he left the Astral Plane, reappeared in the dark sky, and changed his appearance into a 14 years old young boy.

A moment later, two eerie wings made of wicked flame appeared behind his back, spread outward, and flapped on their own.

The two wings looked more like creepy fire wings, seemed to be reddish-black color, and released lightning-like red flame streaks towards all the surrounding clouds!

It was his Rank-3 [Fallen Angel's Wings] spell!

Charles then locked his gaze on the small castle, suddenly retracted his wings, and descended towards the ground like a comet.

At that moment, Duke Michael saw a reddish-black fire in the sky and got stunned.

'Fire?' But he soon noticed that it was not a fireball but something else.

"It's directly coming towards our direction, My Lord!" The nearby knight shouted in shock.

Duke also noticed this and smiled.

"He is here!" Saying so, he took a few steps backward and unsheathed his sword.

The other knights and Demon Sorcerers also get ready for the upcoming battle.

In the meantime, Charles passed through the invisible barrier and slowly flew towards the castle.

But just as he appeared a hundred meters above the garden, he opened his reddish-black fire wings wider, decreased the momentum like a bird, and landed on the grassy yard.

Then, he glanced at the thousands of knights and went pale.

At that moment, Duke Michael took a step forward and muttered.

"Elemental Wings."

As he spoke, eerie dark smoke came out of his body and soon formed two bat-like wings behind him.

He flapped those two wings, rose towards the sky, and asked coldly.

"Baron of the Grime Plains, could you please tell me why you are here?"

Simultaneously, two blonde-haired knights released yellowish-color energy from their bodies and created golden wings behind their backs. Then, they also flapped their wings, flew towards the sky, and appeared beside Duke.

'Fire elemental energy? No, it's Light-Elemental energy!' Charles looked up at the dark sky and furrowed his brows.

Even though he was up against three Saint Knights, he wasn't afraid at all.

'They are strong but not unbeatable. What I'm worried most about is not the Saints but the Demon Sorcerers.'

Muttering inwardly, he retracted his gaze from the sky, looked around, and soon looked in a particular direction.

At that moment, three robed Sorcerers stood under an ornamental tree shadow and looked at him with wariness. One was a black-haired young man, while the other two were middle-aged men.

Charles ignored the two middle-aged men and firmly locked his gaze on the black-haired young man.

The young man appeared shorter, had a square face, downturned hazel eyes, high-arched eyebrows, and celestial nose.

He was the Rank-4 Demon Sorcerer, Miles!

'But his wisdom power has long reached Rank-5, and his skills are also similar to Jessie's blood manipulation skills!' What's more shocking was that his skills were upgraded versions.

But just as he was about to move towards him, Duke Michael flapped his bat-like wings and shot towards Charles madly.

At the same time, the Demon Sorcerer named Miles also noticed his gaze, took a few steps forward, raised his hand, and spoke.

"Blood Freeze."

As he spoke, Charles felt that his whole body got stiffened all of a sudden.

He thought his entire body would burst open if he didn't do something to block the strange power from invading his mind!

He instantly shifted his attention towards his body, released his wisdom power, and blocked the strange invisible force from entering his body.

Then, he unsheathed his long sword, took a step forward, and flapped his Fallen Angel's Wings.

A moment later, he shot up towards the sky at an unimaginable speed and appeared in front of Duke Michael in a blink.

Then, he raised his hand, imbued his sword with a reddish sword aura, and lunged forward.

But one of the two golden-winged knights came from Duke's right side and blocked his sword.

Simultaneously, the other golden-winged knight appeared above his head and thrust his greenish-aura-coated sword towards it!

Meanwhile, a mocking smile appeared on Duke's face. He flapped his bat-like wings, released more darkness-elemental energy towards the surroundings, and then disappeared!

No, Charles noticed that he turned into a pure darkness elemental energy and mingled with nature.

"There is a clear difference between a Radiant Knight and a Saint, lad." A cold voice echoed in his head.

Alas, Charles didn't have any time to hear Duke Michael's taunting words.

He flapped his wings, backed away hurriedly, and then sighed.

"I did expect some action. But it seems I don't need to hold back anymore." Just as he spoke, he locked his gaze on one of the golden-winged knights and cast [Burning Thoughts] on him.

Simultaneously, he cast [False Blink] spell on himself, disappeared from there, and reappeared behind that knight.

Then, he calmly raised his hand, pointed his forefinger at his nape, and muttered.

"Ember Needle."

A second later, a sharp reddish needle came out of his forefinger, moved into the knight's nape, and entered his body.

By the time the golden-winged knight managed to regain his senses, he felt a burning sensation from his throat!

At that moment, the [Ember Needle] spell broke into two parts and released dense, chaotic fire into his bloodstreams!

A shrill scream came out of the knight's mouth as he opened his brown eyes wider and scratched his body in a hurry.

Due to the sudden itchy and painful sensation from all over his body, he couldn't maintain his golden wings and directly fell from the sky!

A second later, a thud sound echoed in the middle of the garden and attracted everyone's attention.

Even though the Saint Knight wasn't heavily injured due to the crash-landing, all the thousands of elite knights suddenly widened their eyes and shouted in shock and surprise.

The reason for their surprise was very simple.

At that moment, the Saint Knight's skin turned pink, then deep red, and soon transformed into blackish color. His whole body also started to bulge like a balloon and let out intense, chaotic elemental fluctuations!

Waves of chaotic fire ripples spread towards the surroundings and burned all the nearby ornamental plants and trees!

Even Duke Michael got stunned by this scene and came out of his hiding.

Before long, the Saint Knight's body enlarged more than a 2-meter radius in size and then exploded while sending flesh and blood in all directions!
