Warlock Apprentice

The intruder was someone with short, gray curly hair and a pair of panda eyes that made him look pretty ill.

In fact, it was actually the soul of someone, but not a person.

Compared to Angor’s solid soul, this one looked transparent, which meant his soul quality was a lot inferior to Angor’s.

Also, Angor recognized this soul. He was “Dream Reader” Freud.

Angor silently sighed in his mind. Just as Keely assumed, the apprentices were already fighting over the Meraid’s Swords.

What Angor heard earlier suggested that Yethew and Freud found one sword and started a fight. Yethew won in the end, while Freud managed to keep his soul “alive” by using Soul Coupling in time.

But since Yethew still placed a deadly bug at his feet with obvious intent, Angor believed that they only found one scale and needed another one.

Yes… Now, this sounds a lot more likely.

In fact, Angor never intended to let Yethew go even if the man offered to sign a peace pact. Yethew made TWO attempts to ambush him. Combining with this man’s terrible character, letting him live meant leaving a great threat behind.

And Freud just promised him a bounty.

“Okay, let’s do just that,” Angor replied to Freud.

Yethew didn’t hear what Angor just said, but he felt scared when he saw Angor’s expression.

He immediately moved to run. At the same time, a giant swarm of insects rushed at Angor as a group.

These insects were dangerous when used together with the element of surprise. However, Angor didn’t feel threatened at all when Yethew unleashed them in the open.

The model of Field of Fire was already intact in his mind space. Angor simply lifted a hand and unleashed it.

He learned such a cantrip as a means of damaging things in a large area. The seawater hindered its power greatly, but it was still enough to engulf all the bugs that were weak against both fire and water.

With the insects dealt with, Angor ejected his soul and went after Yethew.

Yethew checked behind him and saw his insects were surrounding Angor’s body while Keely never showed up to stop him. Therefore, he was confident that he could get away.

And I’ll find a chance later to deal with both of them… And that accursed cat. Yes. That cat will be perfect for feeding my bugs—

But he didn’t get to make his following plans as a shadow soon moved into his path.

How did he move so fast?!

Yethew grew terrified when he sensed a strange sequence of energy covering him up, preventing him from moving in any way.

Angor snickered and unleashed a gravity shot toward Yethew’s head.

Bam!

Yethew’s head popped open, and the innards of his brain were carried away by water.

Following his death, countless insects crawled and wiggled out of Yethew’s neck.

Angor trembled a little while looking at the crammed pests that included a number of infamous hazardous ones. Although they couldn’t really do anything to his soul since he left his body back at the watchtower.

Once the bugs scattered away, Angor dragged Yethew’s corpse and headed back.
