Capítulo 72: Qi Strike

Everyone watched in horror as the lethal mist summoned by the enraged serpent engulfed Julius like a hungry beast. A single thought echoed in their minds, 'the boy is doomed.'

Although they didn't experience the mist's potency, its effects were well-documented, making their hearts drum at the area of effect ability's dangers.

"No!"

Arun, observing the scene with Asha from the safety of the carriage, reacted first, his mournful scream cutting through the evening sky.

He couldn't believe Julius would die. Over the past three days, he had already imagined how they would study at the college and develop their magical and alchemical knowledge, relying on each other to improve and maybe surpass his father. In his heart, he already considered Julius a brother and rival.

So, how did the situation veer for the worse so quickly?
