Chapter 47: Great Archmage Servant

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As a servant, at least he did not have to die. He was not someone who would abandon his life for a little freedom and dignity. This was the cruel law of the cultivation world. Just like how he could disregard the lives of those few people from the Pure White Magic Academy for the sake of an Ice Flame Grass, it was only because he was stronger than the other party that he could naturally control the other party’s fate. But now, it was only because he had met someone stronger.

Furthermore, the other party was a Great Archmage at the peak of his realm. If he became the other party’s servant, he might be able to obtain more benefits and advance to a higher realm. It should be known that he had already encountered a bottleneck. No matter how hard he tried, he could not continue to advance. Perhaps, after he had acknowledged the other party as his master, the other party would help him advance. He consoled himself in this way.

However, Romo did not care what he was thinking. He said coldly, “Let go of your soul!”

“Yes, Master!” Karuman said respectfully and immediately let go of the defense of his soul.

Instantly, he felt a powerful mental strength enter deep into his soul and then imprinted magical power on it. A sharp pain came, almost causing him to die from the pain. However, the pain only lasted for an instant before the powerful mental strength retreated from his soul. However, he knew that his soul had already been sealed by the other party. If he had any ill intentions, the other party could annihilate his soul with a thought.

As the other party withdrew his mental strength, Karuman felt the cold aura on his body quickly dissipate. However, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face extremely pale. This was because a restraint had been placed on his soul earlier, and it had caused some harm to his soul. He quickly took a Healing Pill and felt better. Then, he quickly bowed respectfully to Romo and said, “This old servant greets Master.”

“There’s no need for formalities. Stand up,” Romo said calmly. When Karuman heard Romo’s calm voice without a hint of weakness, he was instantly a little shocked. Romo had imprinted a magical power in his soul just now. Although he would be injured by the imprinting of magical power in his soul, the other party would also lose some of his mental strength. This was a loss, not a consumption. Logically speaking, although the other party would not be injured like him, he would also become weak. But now, from the looks of it, the other party did not seem to be affected at all. Could it be that the other party was not a Great Archmage at his peak as he had thought, but more powerful?

He naturally would not have known that Romo was a spirit. As a spirit, losing a bit of mental strength was like losing a little blood. As long as it was not too much, it would not affect Romo at all.

Romo said calmly, “Since you have become my servant, come home with me.”

“Yes, Master!” Karuman had mistakenly thought that Romo was a terrifying existence that had surpassed the Great Archmage realm, so he became even more respectful to Romo.

Then, the two of them followed the same route back. They did not encounter any sudden natural calamity along the way. After all, the probability of a natural calamity occurring was very small and not easy to encounter.

On the way, Romo asked about Karuman’s exact situation in more detail. Karuman answered them one by one, not daring to hide anything. Now that Romo had imprinted a mark in his soul, Romo would be able to sense if the other party was lying. Hence, he certainly did not dare to lie in front of Romo.

What Karuman had said earlier was true. He and Saruman were indeed biological brothers, and their relationship now was indeed not that great. However, they were still brothers, and they had each kept a Magic Conch so that they could contact each other at critical moments. Unfortunately, Saruman’s death had been very sudden, and he did not even have the time to contact Karuman. This was why Karuman did not receive the news of Saruman’s death in time. Otherwise, he would have rushed there to kill him.

The reason Romo did not kill Karuman directly but took him in as a servant was mainly because he wanted to increase the strength of the Nicholas family clan. Currently, the Nicholas family clan was still very weak. Although they had him, the Old Ancestor, protecting them, he could not be resolving every single problem that cropped up. If that were to happen, no matter how many Faith Points he had, it would not be enough to expend. For instance, after he had accumulated a few Faith Points, they would be exhausted immediately. He would not be able to accumulate enough Faith Points. However, with Karuman, a level-4 Great Archmage as a servant, in future, he would be able to do the work for the family clan if there was anything. This way, Romo could save a lot of Faith Points.

In order to convince Karuman wholeheartedly, Romo had even told him something about his younger brother, Saruman. When he heard that the other party had actually dared to be so bold as to plunder the luck of a descendant of someone who might have surpassed the Great Archmage realm, he felt that the other party deserved to die. He had already told the other party more than once not to plunder the luck of others, especially those with great luck. Those with great luck would certainly have great karma. If he had plundered the luck of others, he would have been tainted by karma. One or two was fine, but if there were too many, with so much karma entangling him, it would sooner or later kill him. Unfortunately, the other party had not listened to him at all. Now, look what happened. He was directly killed by the backlash.

If you die, so be it. Now, you have implicated me and I have become a servant.

Now, Karuman even wished he could summon the other party’s soul and kill him again.

When they arrived outside Winterfrost, the first light of dawn had risen in the east. At this moment, the System notified Romo that the time limit for his Spirit Demon Talisman had arrived.

Romo said to Karuman, “We’re already here. My family is in Winterfrost. You can report to the Nicholas family clan yourself.”

With that said, the time was up for Romo’s Spirit Demon Talisman. His figure also turned into specks of light and disappeared. Karuman looked at everything in front of him in shock. He had not felt any magical waves at all. This was simply unbelievable. No matter what realm a person was in, as long as he used magical power, there would definitely be magical waves. But his master had used magical power and there was no magical wave. Could it be that the other party’s true strength had really surpassed the Great Archmage and had entered the Divine Mage realm? Otherwise, why was it that he could not even sense any magical power when the other party used magical power?

However, the other party had left just like that. Wasn’t he afraid that he would escape? After all, a servant was not a good status. However, just as this thought had risen in his mind, he quickly extinguished it. This was because he could still clearly sense the magical imprint in his soul.. If Master were to know about this thought of escaping, he would be in trouble.
