Sovereign of the Ashes

Chapter 89: Ruins

A large number of sharp meteorites descended upon Mystralora City, threatening to bring destruction upon it.

With all the residents of the city safely evacuated by the knights and mages from the surface, Martin was merely destroying the empty shell of Mystralora City.

Amidst the city, there was still an unknown number of knights and mages hunting down the black mages.

The destruction of Mystralora City marked the end of an era in the Underworld.

With the black mages group now a thing of the past, who would rise as the new ruler of this region in the Underworld?

BOOM!

A thunderous impact echoed as a massive meteorite struck the stone building where Sein was in.

Protected by a light blue barrier, the structure withstood the blow.

Yet, the violent tremors left Sein disoriented and breathless.

In the wake of the meteorites’ descent, a series of explosions engulfed most of Mystralora City, reducing surrounding buildings around the stone building to rubble.

The aftermath of Vice Dean Martin’s devastating attack prompted a swift counterattack from knights and mages from the surface in the city after a brief moment of silence.

Sein noticed a decrease in the number of knights and mages from the surface within the city, a factor that might have prompted Martin and the other black mages to attempt a breakout.

Nevertheless, the remaining forces from the surface still significantly outnumbered the black mages.

Back then, the black mages had relied on the academy’s magical barriers, towers, and other defense mechanisms to barely withstand the onslaught of the mages from the Divine Tower and knights from the surface.

Now, with the dean and others initiating a breakout from the academy, the pressure on them intensified. contemporary romance

In a sudden burst, numerous spells of varied colors rose from the city, targeting the black mages preparing to escape into the air.

Simultaneously, more than twenty armored knights soared into the air, forming a specialized formation to surround the Vice Dean Martin and his group.

A fierce aerial battle ensued as the two forces clashed.

Amidst the meteorite chaos, Sein observed dark creatures and academy overseers plummeting to the ground.

The aerial battle gradually moved further away from Mystralora City, indicating the success of Dean Martin’s breakout strategy.

Meanwhile, the elemental fluctuations and the deafening magic explosions persisted within the Black Magic Academy.

It appeared that apart from Martin’s group, there was also another group of black mages in the academy.

Taking advantage of the distraction caused by Vice Dean Martin and his companions, the black mages within the academy began dispersing in different directions.

A colossal and formidable plant monster marched toward the eastern part of the city.

Sein recognized that it was the pet of Master Katherson who oversaw the academy’s plantation.

There was an old man riding atop its head, dressed in black robe.

Pursued by a streak of silver light, the outcome of their escape remained uncertain.

The thunderous voice accompanying the silver light seemed familiar to Sein. It sounded like Baldor.

Could it be that both he and Master Medich, the white-robed mage, had returned?

However, the powerful duo had no time for Sein, as more black mages broke out from within the academy.

It appeared that the number of black mages breaking out from the academy exceeded Vice Dean Martin’s group.

These full-fledged black mages were formidable individual fighters, showcasing strong combat abilities.

As battles erupted across various parts of Mystralora City, the knights and mages who initially pursued Vice Dean Martin’s group began to withdraw.

In the midst of these intense battles, no place is safe in Mystralora City.

CRASH!

Another deafening impact resounded as a meteorite collided into the stone building where Sein was.

This time, the protective barrier on the building dimmed.

The massive meteorite created an opening in the second floor of the stone building.

Considering the compromised state of the building and Sein’s mounting concern for Leena, his mentor, and others, it became evident that waiting in this location was no longer a viable option.

After a brief moment of preparation, Sein made his way toward the second floor.

BOOM!

A massive elemental explosion came from the second floor of the stone building, shattering the magical barrier that had protected it.

After the powerful blast, Sein hastily crawled out from the debris, covered in dust.

“I might have been too reckless. Using the magic cannon at such close range nearly buried me alive.”

After a bout of coughing, Sein quickly regained his bearing and headed toward the direction of the academy.

Shortly after Sein vacated the ruins, another meteorite descended from the sky, obliterating the remnants of the stone building and leaving behind a sizable crater along with scattered rubble.

Mystralora City had become exceptionally perilous, especially with the conflict between black mages and knights and mages from the surface shifting from the academy to the city.

Sharp meteorites continued their descent from above.

It was a sign that the lumenstone vein in the rock ceiling above the city was collapsing, triggered by Vice Dean Martin’s earlier large-scale geo element magic spell.

The impending collapse of the lumenstone vein meant that both the city and a significant area outside its borders were on the verge of becoming hazardous zones!

Navigating the ruins with his intimate knowledge of Mystralora City, Sein skillfully avoided the various battle zones, steadily advancing toward the academy.

Despite the city’s vastness, there were only about ten battlefields scattered throughout.

After avoiding the battlefields, Sein only had to worry about the constant descent of meteorites.

As he drew closer to the academy, a sense of unease crept into Sein’s heart. Throughout his entire journey, he had not sensed any familiar battle fluctuations from Master Morsidor.

Moreover, it seemed that the majority of black mages attempting to break out from the academy were being intercepted within the city, with only a handful managing to escape.
