Forbidden spells, as the name suggests, are forbidden spells, because of their incomparable destructive power, which is far beyond the reach of other magics.

In terms of magic level, the forbidden spell belongs to the deadly magic above level six, and its inheritance has a long history, according to the first Sassen king four hundred years ago ordered the improvement of black magic, the forbidden spell as the most powerful weapon of the black magician, has been continuously studied, enhanced, and even named the name of the ancient gods, all of which have proved the terrible power of the magic.

Black magic, in its pure sense, does not refer to a specific type of magic, it is simply a general term for all types of magic that use the negative energy of the elements.

The so-called negative energy refers to the irritable part of the elements that is not easy to control, just like the flame, in the history of human development, lighting, heating, cooked food, fire as an indispensable part, closely related to human life, but the flame is not so docile, if not used properly, it may cause immeasurable disasters, I can't remember how many lives were swallowed up by seemingly docile flames.

As the mainstream profession in the magical world of the Empire, the black mage has been criticized and accused to a greater or lesser extent, and except for war, the black mage is almost useless.

Remember, the earliest pioneers of elemental magic were the green magicians, who advocated the concept of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature, which more or less carried the shadow of the elven civilization, and the early green magicians were mostly bards who advocated freedom, and it may be difficult for you to imagine that at the beginning when magic was not accepted by the general public, the green magicians were already using their own power to build the country.

Although they cannot be said to be the pioneers of the history of human magic, they deserve to be the forerunners of imperial magic.

And then the blue mage was replaced by the criticized black mage.

At the beginning of the empire, dark mages were used as weapons of war at most, they could not produce, they could not build, they could only destroy, so they were branded as destroying human civilization.

But it has to be said that the black mage was developed from the shoulders of the green mage, and in the hundreds of years of development, the black mage replaced the green mage and became the most solid pillar of the empire, as the most powerful weapon internally and externally.

Unlike their predecessors, in today's empire, dark mages are involved in all walks of life as builders in addition to destruction, but their research on forbidden spells has never stopped.

Forbidden spells, which are magic that seriously offends the realm of the gods, may be seen in a similar shadow from the name of the gods.

No one would say that the forbidden spell can also become the power of the building caste, and the only thing that the forbidden spell will bring is destruction and destruction.

In today's era, the black mages have voluntarily moved away from the center of war, and the examples of hundreds of years have made them understand that most of the destruction is only the stagnation of civilization, not the advancement, and they deliberately weaken the magic left by their ancestors, teaching it to their successors, and it seems that they can see the shadow of the original green mages again.

As for forbidden spells, black magicians have always been difficult to give up, because forbidden spells are the most powerful weapon of black magicians.

It can be said that the reason why black magicians can stand at the pinnacle of the wizarding world is that forbidden spells play an immeasurable role, because in addition to black magicians, whether it is a white magician in Salonia or a necromancer who has been submerged in history, their research on forbidden spells is far inferior.

Black magicians sometimes claim to be the closest beings to the gods, but in fact, they are just scholars who pursue supreme power, and black does not represent evil, but rather that they have a forbidden power.

Lava Purgatory: Wrath of Hephaestus

This magic that has been dubbed as a god is undoubtedly a fire-based forbidden spell magic.

But in fact, the use of this kind of forbidden spell requires a series of complex spells and gestures, and even requires magic arrays and magic items, and it is really not like a human being can do it with a single spell...... So...... "Tsk!" Looking into the distance, Argus exhaled angrily, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Even I thought that old guy was annoyed, but I didn't expect ......."

Glancing at Argus teasingly, Poole whispered, "I've been deceived!"

"Yes, I was completely deceived......" As he spoke, Argus glanced at the small volcano that did not exist, and it was still about to move at the moment, and it became extremely dead at the moment, pursed his lips, and said sincerely, "It is worthy of a wise great magician!"

"Is that good?" Poole hesitated after glancing at Argus, "I remember our plan was to keep the archmage in Galik......, right?

"Ahh......h

"Is there really no way?" Poole whispered in a very serious tone, looking deeply at Argus, "I hope you haven't deceived us, Argus......"

"Ah, of course I will not deceive you, my dear companion!"

Looking at the smiling Argus, Poole obviously noticed that he was talking 'you' and his question was 'we'...... Thinking of this, Poole sighed slightly and whispered, "Don't make it difficult for me, Argus!"

Argus was stunned, then laughed at himself, looked at the sky, and said ambiguously, "No......"

By this time, at Dia's persuasion, Soth had returned to Alicock, along with the bloodline of the notorious Count Vlad, a vampire who aspired to become a bard, Ulrik Vlad.

As far as Soth was concerned, it was a real annoyance, and along the way, whenever he saw something new, Ulrik looked no different from the look of a child when he saw a fun toy, and it was hard to imagine that kind of guy could be a terrible vampire!

Alicock ...... Glancing at the tight and solid walls, Soth turned his head and said angrily at Ulrik, who was standing not far behind him, "Hey, how long are you going to stand there?!"

"Ah," Ulrik came back to his senses, and with a look of surprise and yearning in his eyes, he muttered, "that's amazing, is this what you call Alicock? Great...... The city is fantastic......"

"Giggles," said Dia, who was standing beside Thos, smiling slightly, tilting her head slightly, "Alicock is the most famous fortress in the northeastern part of the Empire - Ulrik, haven't you seen a similar city?"

"Of course—no," Ulrike muttered, shaking his head as he looked at the city, "I've never seen anything like it, not even the grandest castle in my memory...... Waldrobe can't compare to ...... at all," he said, as if thinking of something, he asked curiously, "Empire, what is Empire?"

"This is the country we live in!" Dia explained with a smile.

"Oh, to be able to build such a powerful city, this must be a very powerful country!" Ulrik exclaimed.

"Of course," said Dia, smiling slightly, "four or five hundred years ago, the empire unified this place......

"Unification?" Ulrique's eyes widened in surprise, "have all those powerful lords been defeated?"

"Ulrik, what you said was hundreds of years ago, and the lord you mentioned was defeated by the great Sassen King hundreds of years ago......"

"Wow, to defeat those powerful lords, King Sassen must be a very great man......"

Listening to Ulrik's words of praise for the city and the famous Sassen King from time to time, Soth only felt a faint anxiety in his heart, and said angrily, "Yes, so, you stay here and continue to praise that great man—Dia, let's go, leave this guy alone!"

"Giggles!" Dia smiled.

"That's amazing...... still admiring the grandeur of the city, Ulrik suddenly noticed that Soth and Dia were far away, and hurriedly chased after him, shouting, "Wait for me, Soth, Dia......"

In other words, as early as a few days ago, Ulrique was familiar with Soth and Dia, to be honest, this guy is a notorious vampire, his temper is really too good, except for a little inexplicable childishness, he is simply an ordinary aristocratic son, where is there anything like a vampire?

"Wow, this ...... What is this?" Ulrike hadn't taken a few steps before his eyes were drawn to the handmade crafts on the roadside stalls.

"This guy ......" glancing at Ulrik, seeing that he was standing by the roadside stall with wide eyes, Soth couldn't help but feel a little anxious, frowned, and said, "I really shouldn't let this guy follow!"

"It's all right," Dia said with a smile as she took Soth's hand gently, "isn't it good, Ulrik isn't the vampire we remember, he has no ill will towards us, does he?"

"No malice...... hell this kind of guy would have ill will towards people!Soth shook his head speechlessly, and suddenly, he noticed the wanted portrait posted on the wall, and when he looked closely, his brow furrowed.

"Argus ......" Dia apparently noticed the gaze of the boy next to her, subconsciously looked at the wanted portrait, covered her mouth and said in shock, "Oh my God, Argus actually went to assassinate Scott's grandfather?" said Aya, looking at the boy next to her with an uneasy look.

"I don't think it's strange what that guy would do if he wants to destroy this country......

"But," Dya whispered, glancing at Soth, "aren't you worried about Scott, Soth?"

"Dia......"

"Well, I understand," Dia said with a slight smile and a somewhat inexplicable tone, "we came to Alicock just to find a carriage back and say hello to our good friends from the past...... But that would be dishonest, Soth!"

Speechlessly, he looked at Dia, who was smiling and groaning, and said angrily, "All the luggage is here, and I only have a silver coin from Argus on my body, and I will use one silver coin to return to Reox?

"Yes!" said Dia, smiling softly.

As he spoke, Ulrikchen hurried over, stretched out his hand with anticipation, and said, "Are there ten copper coins?

Before Soth could speak, Dia said curiously, "What do you want money for?"

"That's it," Ulrike said excitedly, pointing back to the roadside stall, "I've never seen such a delicate craft, it's amazing......

"You give me a little moderation!" Even the magic array in his left hand probably couldn't suppress the anger in Soth's heart this time.

Secretly patting the back of Soth's hand, Dia said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Ulrique, we don't have all our luggage with us, so we don't have the money to buy you that artifact - the only silver coin on Soth's hand was temporarily placed by his friend and can't be used......"

"Yes......" Ulrik sighed regretfully, looking back at the stall with a nostalgic gaze.

"Well, let's wait until we get our bags back before we come here, okay?"

When Ulrike heard this, he immediately came to his senses, and bowed respectfully, and said in praise, "Thank you so much, kind young lady......

"This guy!" Soth glanced at Ulrike angrily, he thought that the other party was also a 20-something Seiren, but as a result, this guy was even more immature than Scott and Alan, more often like a child who had never seen the world, obviously, Soth regretted agreeing to Dia's suggestion to take in a homeless problem vampire.

In Ulrique's surprise and praise from time to time, the group finally arrived at the Earl's Castle in the inner city, and Allen, Lavia and others, who had been informed by the guards, quickly ran out of the castle.

Sure enough, as Lisa and Lyreira expected, Lavia was obviously very happy when she saw Soth, but for various reasons, she pressed this joy deep into her heart, pretended to be indifferent, and said lightly mockingly, "You still know to come back, I thought you had left!"

Originally, this problem could be easily solved by saying a soft word at this time, but the problem is ...... Glancing at Lavia, Soth walked straight towards the castle and said with a lazy look, "I'm just here to retrieve my luggage!"

"You're ......," Lavia was stunned.

This bastard, what's this tone?

Just retrieving his own luggage?

This bastard just repays others for worrying about him?

But because Dia was next to her, Lavia had to suppress her anger.

"Okay, okay," looking at Lavia trying to control the anger in her heart, Lisa stood up and played a round, and said, "It's fine, as long as Soth is back......" she said, she glanced at Alan beside her, and said hurriedly, "Right, Ellen?"

"Ahh

Looking at one of his former best friends, Soth didn't know what to say for a while, so he just nodded.

"This is ......" Apparently, Lisa noticed Ulrik looking left and right beside Thos and Dia with a look of surprise.

"What a marvel......" said Ulrique, as he muttered to himself, when Lisa asked, and bowed respectfully, "what a faux pas - hello, beautiful young lady, my name is Ulrike Vlad, if I have caused you trouble...... I'm so sorry!"

"Yay?" said Lisa, tilting her head to look at Ulrike in surprise, "Vlad, is your last name Vlad? I think I've heard of that name somewhere, yes!" Count Vlad ......" she said, looking at Ulrike in amazement.

I saw Ulrike smile slightly, bend down and say, "The Count Vlad you are talking about is really a father......"

"Yay?!" Lisa looked stunned and subconsciously took two steps back.

Glancing at Soth and Dia, seeing that they didn't show any surprised expressions, Alan shrugged his shoulders and beckoned, "Alright, let's go in first—there's been a lot going on lately!" and he led the group to his room.

Along the way, Lisa looked at Ulrik with strange eyes, and when she arrived at the room, she finally couldn't help it anymore and asked, "What about that......?" Well, is Count Vlad really your father? That's ......."

"Hundreds of years ago, right?" Ulrike smiled and said politely, "It seems that my father's reputation is really not very good, I'm sorry to scare you......"

"But...... But how can a man live that long?"

"Because I'm a vampire ......"

"Vampires?" Lisa covered her mouth and took two steps back, her eyes full of alarm as she looked at Ulrik with Alan, Lavia, and Lyrela, after all, vampires were not the kind of people they had experienced.

"Don't worry about this guy!" Soth, who was sitting on the sofa, said lightly, "Compared to this, my luggage is still in the original room?"

"Of course," Alan nodded, then looked at Ulrik oddly and said, "man, won't you explain......? But the vampires don't have a good impact on us......"

Seeing that Soth didn't mean to explain, Dia took the initiative to briefly tell Ulrik about it, and it could be seen that she had a good impression of Ulrique, after all, in addition to the identity of a vampire, it is indeed difficult for Ulrique, who has a gentlemanly demeanor, to make people hostile.

"I see......" Lisa finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Dia's explanation.

As he was talking, suddenly there was a quarrel outside the room, which sounded like Scott's voice.

As if seeing Soth's puzzled gaze, Alan shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "Actually, if you don't come back, we're going to look for you and leave here...... To be honest, the journey wasn't really fun......"

Listening to Allen's brainless words, Soth felt inexplicable, frowned and said, "Who is that person?"

As soon as the words fell, Lerella sighed slightly, "It's Scott's father...... Scott's grandfather, the Earl, was assassinated while we were on our way to Alton......

"Oh my God!" said Dia in disbelief, "......"

As if sensing Dia's thoughts, Lisa shook her head and whispered, "Ever since the Earl's death, Scott's mood has been low...... He wanted to seek revenge on the archer who had killed his grandfather, but his father forbade him to leave the castle for a single step...... They had to argue several times a day for the past two days, and like Alan said, we were going to leave today or tomorrow - it didn't feel good for us to stay here anymore when that happened......"

"Yes!" Soth frowned, recalling the man in the wanted portrait, "Is it Argus who assassinated the Count?"

"That's not it," Alan shook his head and explained in a low voice, "but it has to do with Argus, the Dean and Father Andrew also came to Galik two days ago, and according to them, the assassin of the Count was one of Argus' men, a demon god named Lelagin!"

"Demon God?" Looking at Alan, Dia asked curiously, "What is a Demon God?"

"I don't know," Alan shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, "According to the dean, it must be something like a Heroic Spirit...... But it's incredible that they, as spirits, can harm humans......"

As he spoke, the door was pushed open, and Scott, who still had an angry look on his face, walked in, stunned when he saw Soth and Dia, barely showed a smile, and greeted, "Glad to see you're okay, Soth!"

"Ahh

"Hmm!" Scott replied reluctantly, with a deep disgust, and whispered, "I hate to admit it, but that guy is indeed my biological father......" he said, he looked up, glanced at Ulrike, and asked in confusion, "This is ......"

Dia simply explained Ulrik's matter to Scott, and it could be seen that Scott's mind was not here, and he didn't show a little surprise, but just nodded perfunctorily, perhaps, he just wanted to change the subject.

"Hello Mr. Ulrike Vlad!" Scott smiled reluctantly, turning to Allen, "I heard Mr. Black say that you are leaving?"

"This ...... yes!" Alan nodded with a wry smile.

"yes, it's better to leave," Scott said bitterly, smirking at himself, "I'm sorry to keep you any longer after so much has happened, Alan, Soth......"

"There's nothing sorry to be sorry for, man!" Alan whispered, patting Scott on the shoulder, "We don't want that to happen...... It's a pity that about your grandfather ......."

"Hmm!" Scott nodded silently, then took a deep breath and said pretending to be relaxed, "And when are you going to leave?"

Glancing at Soth, Alan shrugged and said, "Originally, we planned to go to him tomorrow if Soth didn't come back...... Now that Soth is back...... Afternoon, what about you, when are you going to go back to Reox?"

Scott subconsciously pushed his glasses and said inexplicably, "I'll ...... for the time being." Can't go back to Reox for a while, that guy...... He forbade me to leave the castle, so he sent quite a few soldiers to garrison the castle......"

"Your father is afraid that he will be carried away by anger - you should know what the dean said, that guy named Lelagin is a legendary demon god, not a small character who can be defeated easily......"

"I know!" Scott frowned, and then, as if he had thought of something, he looked at Alan apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, Ellen...... I know what you're saying, but ......" with a long sigh, he shook his head and whispered, "but I can't, I feel like I have to do something......" he sighed again, smiled a little reluctantly, looked at the crowd and said, "I'll let Mr. Black prepare ......the carriage for you," he turned and walked out of the room.

"Scott......" looked at the back of Scott as he left with a look of reluctance, and Larella sighed secretly.

At lunch, Scott doesn't show up, but Soth and Dia meet the acting earl that Alan is talking about, Scott's father.

Unlike the old earl, Scott's father, Yvonne, didn't care much about the complicated etiquette, and was very easy-going and humorous, and it was hard to imagine that he was the son of the old-fashioned and stubborn old earl.

"Oh, are you going to leave in the afternoon?" said Scott's father, Duke Yvonne, smiling, wiping his mouth with a napkin, "I'm sorry that we didn't entertain you all the way to Galik, and let you leave with memories of a bad trip...... I'm sorry!"

"His Royal Highness the Duke is too polite," Shaking her head, Lavia said politely, "It's probably us who feel sorry for what happened......

"Hehe," said Duke Yvonne with a faint smile, "there are some things, although we don't want it to happen, but it is always inevitable......" As he spoke, he paused, looked at Soth, and said to everyone, "Are you planning to go back to Reox?"

"Hmm!" Lisa nodded.

"Oh, it's a pity, your Dean, Your Excellency the Archmage of Keynes, and Father Andrew of the Holy See left Galic two days ago for the sake of Argus, otherwise you could have gone back with them......"

"It doesn't matter, it's only us when we come!"

"Hehe, that's what I said," Duke Yvonne shook his head casually and said with a smile, "My unsuccessful son has been taken care of by you before, thank you very much...... Oh, by the way, I can send a team of soldiers to take you back to Reox if you need to......"

"Don't bother, Your Highness the Duke, we can go back by ourselves......"

"Well, then I won't force it," said Duke Yvonne, seeing the old butler Blake walking in, and nodded, "all right, children, the carriage is ready, and you can leave at any time after lunch...... The next time you have the chance, you're more than welcome to come to Galik!"

"Thank you very much, Your Highness the Duke......"

From beginning to end, Scott did not show up, perhaps because of Duke Yvonne, after all, because of some past events, the relationship between the two was very stiff.

And just as the children were packing up and leaving Galik, the first prince of the Empire, the rumored valiant Prince Theo, was escorted by a large group of soldiers from Lorne Fortress to Sassen to inherit the throne.

And around the world's largest gamble, endless darkness looms over the Imperial City of Sasson, as well as Heliriox......
