Capítulo 70: Mysterious Man

Annora considered the opportunity rare. They were in an isolated area, and Edward was distracted. This would be the perfect time to make a run for it.

Forbidden magic of this level was bound to attract fellow practitioners. And that was exactly what happened. 

Numerous individuals covered in black hooded capes showed up to confront Edward.

But before they could reach him, his plans went through. The river had been successfully contaminated with forbidden magic. Anyone who came in contact with it will be infected with the plague.

"Stop!" From the crowd that had gathered, one individual stepped forward. It was clear that he too was someone who wielded a great amount of magic. Just as, if not more powerful than Edward.

Black mist emanated from him, like hands they had reached for Edward. They caught him and held him down. He struggled, unable to move.
