Chapter 29: Dark Tide

Three days later, the continent, which had gradually calmed down, once again boiled over with the name of Ronald.

“What? You heard that Ronald is in Black Forest?”

“That’s right, it’s absolutely true! Just a few days ago, a ship passed through Black Forest’s Deathly Silence and luckily escaped. This piece of news spread out.”

“They sold this information, but no one knows who leaked it, causing everyone to know where Ronald is now!”

“Heavens! Doesn’t that mean that there are a lot of local forces that will act upon hearing the news?”

“Yeah, I think a bloody battle is about to happen!”

“…”

The continent was bustling with noise and excitement. Even Mystic Fire Guild received this news.

Inside the guild office, Jace’s eyes glinted as he muttered to himself, “Ronald has finally appeared? Now, there should be some local forces investigating him. According to the information we received at the academy, he is equipped only with terrifying speed.”

“As for power, he didn’t display. Otherwise, that dean of the Magic Academy would have been severely injured by him. But in fact, he didn’t make a move.”


Jace could not explain where exactly Ronald came from and how he had such a mysterious method. But now, he only needed to sit this one out and reap the spoils later.

The news had already spread across the continent. It was believed that there would soon be local forces suppressing Black Forest.

Blake seems to be there too. Are those two related?

Jace narrowed his eyes as he pondered.

Blake, one of the former Seven Disciples, was located in Deathly Silence of Black Forest. This was something that many people knew. However, what Jace did not know was that not only did Blake encounter Ronald, but he was also heavily injured by the other party. And now, the two had become friendly neighbors.

Bang bang bang!

Someone knocked at the front door.

“Come in,” Jace said quietly.

A middle-aged man wearing a red magical robe walked in. His face was expressionless and his body emanated a heavy aura.

“What brings you here, Sacha?” Jace asked, surprised.

This middle-aged man was one of the three great generals of the East Continent, Sacha!

Upon hearing this, Sacha said with a serious expression, “Leader Jace, I request that we head to Deathly Silence of Black Forest and capture Ronald. Please approve it.”

“Hmm?” Jace frowned and said, “We don’t need to make a big fuss over him yet. The key is that he didn’t do anything too out of line, and we don’t need to fight him head-on. Now, watching the internal strife between the local forces is the best way.”

“But, Leader Jace, if we don’t capture him, the prestige of Mystic Fire Guild will be completely lost,” Sacha said stubbornly.

“So what? Like I said, this matter ends here. You don’t need to rush to Deathly Silence. Just wait quietly for the news from those local forces,” Jace said expressionlessly. That’s right, the authority of East Continent’s Mystic Fire Guild was close to that of the royal family. This was also why Sacha came to ask Jace for instructions.

“Yes, Leader!” Sacha gnashed his teeth, but there was nothing he could do. He could only nod and leave the guild office.

Jace stared at Sacha’s back, his brows furrowing as he thought.

Now is not the time yet.

The corners of Jace’s mouth twitched slightly as he muttered to himself

We still haven’t figured out his trump cards and goals. The best course of action is to hold back.

There were many forces in the periphery of the East Continent traveling together with the same goal—to enter Deathly Silence of Black Forest.

They had already made up their minds to kill Ronald. This way, they could officially become the Seven Disciples and carry out some secret plans.

“Brothers, we can’t be careless. This is a man with a bounty of tens of millions. Moreover, he rejected the invitation of Mystic Fire, Although I’ve never seen his strength, I think he’s definitely not weak.”

One after another, the local forces were ready to set out. A loud and clear voice rang out as groups poured into Deathly Silence with great fanfare.

In Deathly Silence, there was an unprecedented peace amidst the dense fog. On this day, it was completely broken. Countless local forces surged into this region, seemingly having forgotten its terror. Their minds were filled with the idea of killing Ronald.

“It’s just a high bounty. It’s not a big deal. At most, it just means that he’s worth a lot.”

“That’s right, that’s right. It’s just worth a lot of money. Ronald? He’s not that important!”

“He must have been blind to reject Mystic Fire. Brothers, this trip will be easy for us. He is nothing to be afraid of.”


“…”

Groups of local forces swore and shouted excitedly. In this foggy environment, their excitement could not be concealed.

Indeed!

Ronald did not reveal his strength in the East Continent. Everyone only knew that he had a high bounty. In fact, his strength was still a mystery in the eyes of countless forces.

Only the people from Mystic Fire Guild knew that the growth rate of Ronald’s strength was very terrifying. However, this news was hidden in the guild and did not leak out.

This caused countless local forces to blindly believe that Ronald was nothing. In the face of true battle results, Ronald’s actions were not considered much of an honor.

“It’s just Ronald. There’s nothing to be afraid of.” A leader of a local force held an icicle in his hand and laughed wildly as he shouted. Almost all of the local forces were gathered together, and the scale was still very large. He estimated that there were no less than 10,000 people here!

Such a terrifying group of people had all rushed into Deathly Silence of Black Forest. It was impossible for them to not encourage one another. Some were hesitant at first, but in the end, they all joined the ranks.

A smart person would realize that there was something fishy going on, and it was done by someone from a local force, and not by Mystic Fire. As for who it was, no one knew.

In short, most of the forces that had entered Black Forest’s Deathly Silence were reckless. The true masterminds had yet to reveal themselves.
