"My child, if you have decided, then let's go." The old man in front of him said this to 'him', no, to Karsus.

Levi was stunned for a long time before he recognized that the dying old man in front of him was actually Karsus' father!

Redman, who was also a Grand Arcanist, personally crowned Karsus when he was the Lord of the New Floating City when Karsus was 22 years old!

Levi still remembered that Redman at that time was obviously a handsome and handsome middle-aged man, and it was at the time when Iolum invented the 'life extension technique'. How could he have 'aged' like this in just over three hundred years!

【Absorb magic】!

Felin Demon Kui's suction magic!

Li Wei's "wake up early from the dream" has not exactly experienced the power of this evil magic.

Until now.

Redman looks extremely old.

It was as if just saying this to Karsus took a lot of energy, and he was fighting against himself, death, and fate!

"Why! Father, didn't we agree to leave Netheril together?" Although Levi couldn't see Karsus' expression, he could feel the anxiety and suffering in his heart.

etc!

Karthus was originally planning to escape Netheril?

Levi was extremely stunned. He never thought that Karsus, who was comparable to a 'god' in the hearts of Netherese people, would also be related to the word 'escape'.

Redman let out a long sigh and said: "I am already old. Even if I leave, I probably won't live long. Let's give up my position to other young people.

"As far as I know, under the blockade of the phaerinn magic, only your Icarus with a heavy magic coating can escape this death place. Take as much as you can and be willing to leave Netheril.

of people.

"Sorry, kid, I changed my mind. I don't want to leave, and neither does your cousin."

As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at the old woman beside him who was also in a state of decay. He smiled with relief as if he had let go of his knot in his heart.

But the old woman smiled very kindly. She slowly stepped forward, took Karsus' big hand, and said:

"My brother, go. You are the pride of our Sars family and the pride of Netheril. No matter what, you must live.

"You are Master Iolum's most outstanding student, and you are also the hope for the continuation of Netheril. As long as you live and lead them to live, Netheril will never perish."

Karsus took out his lich-turned-bone-like hand, and roared in pain like a wounded beast:

"Why! You agreed to leave together! You all stayed! What's the point of me leaving! You! Are already my last family members!!!"

"But we don't have long to live anymore. We are old and don't want to bother anymore. I just want to be buried with your mother after death. I really can't bear to leave her alone in Netheril." Redman

Sighed.

Karsus originally wanted to say that in the worst case, he would transform into a lich, but he didn't say so.

Lich transformation is not omnipotent. Redman is already too old and has been eroded by magic for too long. It is almost impossible for him to bear the price of lich transformation.

And Redman's last words blocked all his words in his sore throat.

If he just ignores his father's wishes and takes them away by force, then it's not a kind of selfishness.

Karsus staggered back two steps, lowered his head and said, "Father, take care of yourself. I will leave Netheril after formally bidding farewell to the teacher tomorrow."

"Okay." Redman nodded heavily, as if this simple action consumed all his energy.

Then, with a complex expression, he watched Karsus leave the mansion alone and disappear into the vast night.

After Karsus left home, he teleported directly to the Icarus docked in the western port of the city.

At this time, the port of the Icarus was overcrowded.

The appearance of Karthus aroused people's uproar.

People lined up in long lines at the port, begging loudly, begging the owner of the Icarus to issue more tickets to let them board the ship.

But that's almost impossible.

Since the news that the Icarus could cross the blockade was leaked, countless "relatives and friends" have requested it through various connections, just to get a certain share of the tickets.

This even includes many great arcanists from other floating cities.

In just a few days, the Icarus has actually been overloaded by 300% of the capacity originally designed.

If there are too many arcane masters who are too dense together, the magic resonance phenomenon caused by it will make it difficult for heavy magic coating to cover it, and it will inevitably be affected by magic absorption.

So some dignitaries who were unable to get on the ship took up their original crew positions.

Karsus discovered it in time and suppressed it with all his strength.

But this is the limit of what he can do.

He is also a human being, and he also has to take care of the feelings of those "old friends" in the past.

Nowadays, Netheril's national border seems to be heavily blocked by the underground phaerimms using magic. The war situation on the frontline is getting worse. In addition, the magic is infected, and text messages from various places are intermittent.

And without exception, all kinds of gossip almost every day are one-sided bad news.

The phaerimms are too restrained against the arcanists of Netheril!

This kind of monster with high magic resistance is almost the natural nemesis of Netheril arcanists!

Perhaps only divine magic can restrain them.

But I don’t know if it’s Netheril’s contempt for divine authority for thousands of years or some unknown reason.

The gods seemed to have completely given up on this place.

Even though some desperate Netherese people prayed to the gods for help, they received no response.

Only the temple of the goddess of magic still stands on every floating city.

But the priests of the Goddess of Magic are also good at magic, so they can't help Netheril's situation.

Facing the roar of begging and even the desperate curses, Karsus could only keep a cold face and strode into the ship under the respectful and grateful eyes of the crew.

As a result, rumors began to spread outside the ship that Karsus was "unrescued" and "cold-blooded".

But the big shots no longer have that much energy to suppress these "insignificant" remarks.

Karsus came to the keel door of the central hall and recited silently in his heart:

"Rise Ni"

The door opened in response.

Karsus arrived at the highest level of the spacecraft, his private study.

Strictly speaking, the study room is not too big, not even one percent of the main control room. It is just the top dome of the Icarus.

Here, he could see the stars in the sky through the transparent dome of the spacecraft.

It is rumored that every star corresponds to every intelligent life in Corell. Although it has not been falsified by any great arcanist, Karsus likes to look at the stars in the sky when he is alone.

Because when he was young, his teacher often accompanied him to watch the stars, and then explained to him the strange and vast knowledge about various stars in the starry sky.

He longed for the vast and boundless universe, for the lonely but vast sea of ​​stars described by his teacher, and for the more and more exciting multiverses outside the [Kingdom Sky].

If he had a choice, he would actually rather become a planeswalker.

If possible, he hoped that during his lifetime, he could take his teacher with him to travel through the colorful universe and experience various customs and lives.

But that's only if it's a choice.

However, he had no choice and no possibility.

He is the most outstanding child of the Sass family, the pride of the family, and the person who shoulders the glory of the Sass family.

He is the greatest arcanist in Netheril since Iolum, and he is considered by Iolum to be the next Speaker of the Severnton Council and the successor to the Chief Arcanist.

Now, he is also the continuation of civilization who was ordered by Iolum to 'betray' Netheril and lead a group of Netheril's fires to a foreign land.

He was endowed by God with the most outstanding arcane talent, and at the same time he was bound by the glory and inheritance of the world.

All of this weighed heavily on his shoulders.

After the teacher left, he almost lost all his strength to laugh from the bottom of his heart.

He must continue to study, learn, and struggle for the glory of his family.

We must fight for the glory of Netheril.

Later, the phaerim appeared, and he had to work hard for the continuation of Netheril.

Although he has lived for more than three hundred years, during these three hundred years, he has been working hard for all of this like a tireless construct.

Therefore, in the eyes of the world, he is just a weirdo who only knows how to hide in the laboratory and study arcane magic all year round.

He is taciturn, dull, inhumane, cold-blooded, and withdrawn, almost exactly the same as that old monster Iolum.

But what people don't know is his mind, his dreams, his longings, his love, and all his yearnings.

Almost all stopped at the age of twenty-two;

He stayed on the night when his teacher Risimi said goodbye.

Unknowingly, another lifelike painting appeared under Karsus' pen.
To be continued...
