Somewhere by the edge of Rayton Highland.
The snow was heavy and the snowflakes almost looked like falling feathers. They piled up on the ground and it seemed like none of them were melting.
Broken pieces of human bodies covered the land and the snow was soaked in blood.
Two wizards were confronting each other among the bodies—a handsome man in a black outfit and one wearing a long red robe with a blood aura around him.
"Turin, any last words?" yhe man in a long red robe asked.
"Last words?" Turin raised his head, revealing his pretty face.
The sky was dark, there were black dots and white dots fighting. Turin could hear the explosions and random noises made by the energy movements. The black dots were black eagles from the Dark Wizard Tower and the white dots were armored flying mounts from the alliance.
The flying mounts looked like sesame in the sky, but each of the mounts was more than three meters tall. They were war machines.
Turin was not worried that Victoria might attack when he was not paying enough attention. He just looked at the sky quietly.
"Victoria the Blood seeker, someone must have informed you about the route of my elite team, right?" Turin finally responded.
"You're just wasting time. The alliance has already retreated. This area is controlled by the Dark Wizard Tower now." Victoria's red eyes looked like two blocks of solid blood and the blood aura around his body was getting intense. "When the rest of my army arrives, you'll have no chance."
"So what?" Turin chuckled. "You're also severely injured. Do you like the Seth Rune I applied on you?"
"It'll only take several days for my eyes to recover; I can just get a pair of new eyes if I want to." Victoria snorted and shouted, "I don't know what you're waiting for, but you'll die sooner or later."
"Come and get me then," Turin said as he opened his arms. It looked like he had given up. "I lived for over 500 years and I'm happy with that."
However, Victoria was too scared to attack. Turin acted like this the whole battle and Victoria was damaged by the Seth Rune twice already. Part of Victoria's soul was taken away when he tried to initiate the attack. For that reason, his eyes were no longer functional; although he could still see things using his mentality wave, his power was still weakened.
Turin was doing the same thing again and Victoria hesitated. He had no idea what the Seth Rune was, so he decided to wait for his army to arrive.
Also, he was a bit scared after seeing Turin's movements and had no intention to initiate the attack.
"Turin, you and I are from the same era. You shall not die here for love and peace. You've been increasing your power over the years and you should join the Dark Wizard Tower. You can become a team captain here. Come on, look at you, you're working for the weakest beings of this realm, is this what you really want?"
Turin heard the word and laughed.
"The leader should've listened to my suggestion. I asked him to take you out. If he did that, you wouldn't be standing here and talking like you don't care. Lela returned to the underground world with her people and I'm the only true follower of the leader. Things shouldn't be like this if you didn't change your mind."
"Why would I work for him? For a ridiculous prophecy? Anything is possible in the future, Turin; when you're strong enough, you'll change the future," Victoria responded in a cold tone.
"That might be true, but I've never regretted my decision. I'm not wasting my time. I knew this day might come when I made my decision and I'm here to accept my fate," Turin said as he thought of someone; for some reason, he was talking in a gentle tone. "That's what my sister told me. One should never regret his decisions."
Turin heard beasts roaring in the snow; there were some intense footsteps approaching him.
Turin smiled and slowly drew a long silver dagger with a blue blade from the sheath. He was not scared or anxious at all.
"Victoria, you might win the battle today, but you'll see what the leader is capable of soon." He was implying something but Victoria had no idea what Turin was talking about.
For some reason, Victoria could feel the chill climbing up his spine.
"Damn it! Kill him now!" Victoria shouted like crazy.
The armored wizards on the back of roaring beasts charged at Turin. Their eyes were surrounded by red glows.

In the dimension fissure of the Fairy Realm.
There was an enormous tree standing quietly in the center of the fissure.
There were white rivers running down the vibrant tree. They looked like waterfalls that were falling to the abyss below the tree.
The rivers were from the gaps between the tree branches and no one knew where they came from. It felt like the water in the rivers was the fluid of the tree. There was some thin mist over the rivers.
The air was cold and wet. There were birds twittering around the tree. The black sparrows were chasing after each other.
The place seemed so peaceful and quiet.
The tree was covered with brown windows.
In front of an arched window, there was a silver bat standing on the windowsill, checking the surroundings without moving an inch.
"Teacher, Department Head Cardivan has responded," a yellow egg with a pair of glasses on its body spoke in a deep tone. The egg was in the reading room behind the window.
The egg had the size of a palm. It had arms, legs, and the face of a human being. It was wearing a pair of gold wired glasses and there was some leather paper under its feet.
"Show it," the old bat spoke in a light tone.
"Yes." The egg nodded and its whole body was shaking.
Rows of words appeared on the leather paper after the egg finished its words.
The egg kicked the paper away and the paper flew to the old bat slowly.
The old bat raised its wings and caught the file easily. The bat's expression turned serious as he checked the file.
"I knew it…" He sighed. The paper turned into silver light dots and disappeared into the air. "I never supported this war. The old bastards from the tower trusted the Fairy Empire too much but the Dukes are in control of everything and there is nothing my department can do now."
"Why are you worried?" There was a silver glint on the egg's glasses. "Dream Lord's shadow will be summoned; the alliance can't stop us."
"I don't know why, but it feels like we're not pursuing our original goal. We just wanted to return to the wizard world," the old bat spoke calmly. "The wizards of the empire listened to the fairy lords and they changed. Everything changed."
"Teacher, you're just too kind. The head of department change is treating you like you're nothing. Why don't you fight back?" the egg wondered.
"Fight back?" The bat turned around and smiled; actually, it looked more like he was sneering. "I've already submitted a file to the empire. I have nothing left and I don't care."

The main altar at the Rayton Highland.
A golden bird and two strong beings were floating in the gray sky.
They were looking at a white altar on the ground and their bodies were surrounded by translucent golden waves.
The golden waves came from the humongous golden bird and they turned into a golden crown.
The bird had four wings and there was a white string on its back.
Strangely, the golden bird's shadow did not look like a bird, it was a shadow of a monster that looked like a terrifying dragon.
"So, you really are the Prince Evil Dragon…"
There were three dark shadows around the white altar.
A man in a noble outfit was standing behind the white altar. He was wearing long fake hair and it almost looked like his muscular body could break his luxurious noble suit.
The man was over four meters tall and his suit looked like a long black coat. The bottom of the coat was around his knees and it was decorated with silver patterns.
"Greetings, I'm Duke Mystery, the Commander of the Dark Wizard Tower."
There were five flower patterns on the half-moon white altar and they formed the shape of a shell.
Three of the patterns were covered by blue glows.
"Three of the five branches are ready and this altar is guarded by three commanders. Prince Evil Dragon, you're out of luck," Duke Mystery spoke in a light tone.
"Luck?" The golden bird in the sky chuckled; its voice sounded female. "Aren't two still not activated? This much time is enough. All lower existences in the surroundings left. Now, we just need to see if you three are stronger, or us three will prevail over you."
"I want to know what the legendary Terror Dragon is capable of!" Mystery took out a pair of black leather gloves and slowly put them on.
An enormous snake formed by white smoke appeared behind the Duke and quickly twisted around him. It raised its head and looked at the bird in the sky.
"Secret technique, the Eternal Smoke!" Mystery shouted and the smoke snake expanded. Its width turned from one meter to two meters, two meters to three meters, three meters to ten meters... it finally stopped at 30 meters.
The snake was around 30 meters wide and hundreds of meters long. The snake surrounded the whole altar and stopped growing.
The other two commanders exchanged eye contact, they turned into two black strings and charged to the bird in the sky. Some intense noise echoed in the sky; it sounded like the noise was made by dying beasts.
