Upon hearing that, Anne nodded and quickly towed Ross to hide behind Jared.


    A glow surrounded Jared and pushed the ck smoke away from him.


    “Will that kill them all?” came Harold''s voice as he asked the sorcerer.


    “Don''t worry, Prince Harold. This is a poisonous fog. Those who breathe it in will certainly die,” the


    sorcerer confidently replied.


    Dozens of minutester, the ck smoke dissipated, and the people regained a clear sight of the room.


    Soon, Harold and the sorcerer saw that Jared and the other two werepletely unscathed at the side


    of the room.


    That stupefied both Harold and the sorcerer.


    “W-What''s going on? Didn''t you swear that they''ll die?” Harold asked, baffled by the situation.


    The sorcerer was equally confused, however. “This is impossible. They''ll surely die after breathing in my


    poisonous fog, so how can they still be standing here?”


    “Your witchcraft is useless! Only idiots like him would believe in a lousy sorcerer like you,” Jared


    commented contemptuously.


    “How dare you say that to me? I''ll let you know how powerful I am!”


    With that, the sorcerer''s clothes began billowing despite how there was no wind in the room.


    Secondster, a gust of wind manifested, and masses of ck smoke began forming into ghosts that


    rushed toward Jared and the other two.


    Both Anne and Ross were terrified out of their wits.


    However, Jared only sneered. In the next second, he parted his lips to suck the ck masses into his


    body.


    Even though the sorcerer was not powerful and did not have much negative energy, it was still


    something, so Jared was not going to let his power go to waste.


    The sorcerer was disconcerted by how Jared had absorbed the ck masses of smoke, and soon, his


    face turned pale as cold sweat beaded on his forehead.


    He finally realized he had encountered someone more powerful than him.


    “What other skills do you have? Why don''t you throw them at me all at once? Otherwise, you won''t get


    the chance toter,” Jared told the sorcerer.


    Instead of replying to Jared, the sorcerer nced outside and dashed out.


    As the sorcerer was already near the doorway to begin with, he was soon outside.


    Yet, just as his foot reached the outside, a figure shed past him. It was Jared, and he was now


    standing in the sorcerer''s way.


    The sorcerer inhaled sharply. Then, he threw a punch at Jared, but Jared grabbed his cor and darted


    back into the room.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    He then threw the sorcerer onto the ground.


    “Sir, please spare me! Please have mercy!”


    The sorcerer mentally broke down. As it turned out, he was as powerful as a bug in the face of an


    armadillo.


    He could only beg for mercy.


    Ross looked at Jared in surprise. He was not expecting the young man to be this capable.


    Trod, trod, trod.


    Right then, sounds of horses clopping filled the air. Hundreds of guards rushed in and surrounded the


    people in the room.


    Several guard captains entered and bowed at Ross.


    “Arrest this heartless son of mine now!” Ross ordered.


    Instead of acting on Ross'' orders, the captains turned to look at Harold in confusion.


    Harold sneered. “Father, they''re all now working for me. Why don''t you quietly surrender? Not only are


    the guards of the dukedom working for me, but the priests of the royal family are also working for me. We


    have a secret base on Ice Bear Ind, and in no time, I will be the one to rule over Seneris!”


    Harold was filled with nothing but confidence at that moment.


    “Are you talking about the ancient ruins? Stop dreaming. The altar has been destroyed, and that priest of


    yours is long dead,” Jared pointed out with a grin.
