The life force of the light in the sky had gotten richer and thicker as though they were about to overcome the Darkness Elements in the sky.

The eighth prince abruptly turned around and whispered to the three Seventh-level Spell Casters, “My three Wizards, please lead the other Spell Casters to guard the entrance of the courtyard. Don’t let anyone else enter!”

The three Seventh-level Spell Casters also knew that it was currently the most crucial moment for Wizard Leo. Hence, they immediately stationed Wizards outside and guarded the courtyard tightly.

Seeing the eighth prince’s arrangement, Merlin faintly nodded too. Then, he continued to look at that ray of white light in the sky.

The white light and the Darkness Elements in the sky were constantly intertwined, but the white light seemed to have taken the upper hand. It looked like the Darkness Elements were about to be dispelled anytime soon.

Wizard Bammou seemed to understand Darkness Eye quite well. As long as the white light prevailed and could dispel the Darkness Elements, it would mean that Wizard Leo had successfully eliminated the defects of Darkness Eye.

Looking at the current situation, things were heading for the better.

“Boom!”

Suddenly, the white light in the sky started tumbling and spread rapidly. It was violently erupting, swiftly covering the entire plateau of Darkness Elements.

Joy appeared on Wizard Bammou’s face as he said in a hurry, “Wizard Leo has braced himself and is ready to use the Tear of God to completely eliminate the defects of Darkness Eye.”

The current situation was extremely beneficial to Wizard Leo. The white light suddenly erupted, dispelling almost all of the Darkness Elements. Now, it only needed to disperse the remaining bit of Darkness Elements in order to eliminate the defects of Darkness Eye.

However, just when the crowd had sighed in relief, the white light began to flicker. At the same time, the thick Darkness Elements gathered again, especially from the courtyard, where it exuded immense Darkness Elements.

These Darkness Elements once again condensed into a giant eye, but this giant eye was not just black anymore as it now had a faint radiance of blood. It looked very similar to Darkness Eye in Wizard Leo’s forehead.

The changes that occurred in the sky made everyone feel at a loss. Although no one knew what was going on, everyone could feel that this was not a good sign because the life force of Tear of God had gradually weakened.

Moreover, this giant eye in the sky was clearly condensed by countless Darkness Elements as it did not exude any life force. Nonetheless, Merlin and the others felt that this giant eye had become “alive”. It stared at everyone, sending cold shivers down their spines.

“A power that is cursed… Darkness Eye, it’s indeed not that easy to cultivate. Even the Tear of God couldn’t eliminate its defects!”

Wizard Bammou looked at the “giant eye” in the sky with mixed feelings. Darkness Eye was powerful, but it held a great defect. Even if Wizard Leo had gotten the Tear of God, it was still extremely difficult to rely on the Tear of God to reverse the defects of Darkness Eye. The current changes meant that the Wizard Leo’s efforts had failed.

As time went by, Darkness Eye in the sky gradually began to collapse. Merlin and the eighth prince looked at each other with rather solemn expressions.

“Let’s go in and see Wizard Leo.”

The eighth prince whispered to Merlin. Even if they did not hear Wizard Bammou’s words, everyone could see that Wizard Leo had, unfortunately, failed this time.

Merlin nodded and then walked into the courtyard with the eighth prince.

“Teacher Leo, how are you?”

Merlin hesitated but he still called out loud.

There was no response from inside the house for a long moment. Just as the eighth prince was ready to call out again, a hoarse voice was heard from inside the house, “Merlin and Your Royal Highness? Come in!”

“Creak…”

Merlin quickly opened the door and walked in with the eighth prince.

Just as they entered, the two saw Wizard Leo, seemingly slumped on a chair. His head was drooping low, and his life force seemed to be very chaotic. There were also thick Darkness Elements enveloping Wizard Leo.

“Teacher Leo, can the Tear of God resolve the defects of Darkness Eye?”

Merlin could not help but ask Wizard Leo.

“Resolve?”

Wizard Leo shook his head gently, then slowly looked up. They found that Wizard Leo’s appearance had altered greatly. His face had become as pale as paper, and that pair of hollow eyes looked even more terrifying.

Darkness Eye in his forehead seemed to have become even more bizarre. Just glancing at it briefly had already caused Merlin to break into a cold sweat. It looked exceptionally odd.

“It can’t be resolved. Even the Tear of God can’t resolve the defects on me! When I cultivated Darkness Eye at the very beginning, I should’ve thought that there’ll be such a consequence. It can’t be resolved no matter what I use…”

Wizard Leo’s tone sounded grim and full of helplessness.

The Tear of God might be the only way for Wizard Leo to eliminate the defects of Darkness Eye, but now it had failed too. This had seemingly ended Wizard Leo’s hopes of becoming a Seventh-level Spell Caster.

In particular, due to the simulation of the Tear of God, some changes seemed to have happened to Darkness Eye in Wizard Leo’s forehead, and the situation did not look too good.

“Your Royal Highness the eighth prince, thank you for your concern. I’m already alright now. I just need to restore some Magic Power.”

Wizard Leo glanced at the eighth prince as he said slowly.

The eighth prince nodded and said, “If that’s the case, I won’t bother you then! Just take your time and recuperate in the manor. If you need anything, Wizard Leo, just tell me directly.”

Subsequently, the eighth prince and his people departed from Wizard Leo’s courtyard.

“Teacher Leo, are you really alright?”

There was only Merlin and Wizard Leo left in the house. Merlin could also figure out that Wizard Leo had deliberately wanted to put-off the eighth prince. He obviously had something to say to Merlin that he did not want the eighth prince to know.

Wizard Leo glanced outside the door with a profound look, a smile appearing on the edge of his lips. “Merlin, Wizard Bammou’s really good. With him outside, we won’t have to worry about our safety.”

After a pause, Wizard Leo’s expression gradually became serious. He muttered, “It’s the defects of Darkness Eye, Merlin. I’m somewhat convinced now that Darkness Eye is indeed a cursed power…”

“Cursed? Teacher Leo, what exactly are the defects once Darkness Eye is cultivated?”

Merlin pondered for a moment. Still, he could not help but ask. Whether it was Bammou or Wizard Leo or even the eighth prince, they had always mentioned that Darkness Eye was a cursed power. Except for Oflas, the Legend of Darkness who created the Darkness Eye, no one had truly cultivated Darkness Eye to the fullest.

Wizard Leo lifted his head. Darkness Eye in his forehead was glimmering with a bloody illumination, which looked unusually eerie.

After a long moment, Wizard Leo still shook his head and said, “Merlin, you don’t need to know about the secrets of Darkness Eye yet. Wait until I decide to pass on the cultivation technique of Darkness Eyes to you in the future. Then, I’ll tell you the defects that come along with it.”

It seemed that deep down, Wizard Leo was still hesitating whether or not to pass down the cultivation method of Darkness Eyes to Merlin in the end. After all, Darkness Eye had obvious defects, and Wizard Leo was now suffering from them. Even the precious Tear of God could not resolve it.

“Alright, you can go back first. I may need to rest for some time.”

Wizard Leo waved his hand and signaled Merlin to leave. His expression revealed a trace of fatigue.

Merlin rose to his feet and bowed slightly to Wizard Leo, then left the house.

Bammou was already waiting outside. When he saw Merlin coming out of the house, he quietly followed Merlin.

“Bammou, do you know what are the specific defects of cultivating Darkness Eye?”

Merlin thought of Wizard Leo’s appearance earlier. He had a fear that the failure of resolving the defects of Darkness Eyes using the Tear of God was not really as simple and easy as described by Wizard Leo.

Wizard Bammou helplessly shook his head instead. “Master, all I know are the rumors of Darkness Eye. Darkness Eye is a cursed power. Except for the Darkness Legend Wizard Oflas, no one could cultivate Darkness Eye to its full capacity. As for the specific defects, I’m afraid only those who had truly cultivated Darkness Eye will be clear about it.”

After he finished speaking, Wizard Bammou still took a glance back at Wizard Leo’s courtyard. The meaning of his words could not be more obvious. Wizard Leo surely knew what defects Darkness Eye brought.

Merlin frowned. He feared that Wizard Leo was reluctant to reveal the defects of Darkness Eye in order to keep it confidential. After all, even though Darkness Eye was flawed, it was still desired by countless Spell Casters. Once the specific defects of Darkness Eye were spread, it would be extremely unfavorable for Wizard Leo.

Seeing that Wizard Bammou did not know what the specific defects of Darkness Eye were, Merlin did not continue, and directly went back to his courtyard.

At this time, there was already a blue-robed Spell Caster waiting in Merlin’s courtyard.

Merlin’s eyes glimpsed slightly. He knew this Spell Caster. He was a Fourth-level Spell Caster that the eighth prince trusted – Wizard Glinde.

Glinde also saw Merlin, so he hurriedly stepped forward. He smiled as he said, “Wizard Merlin, His Royal Highness the eighth prince wants to see you!”

“Oh? Do you know what His Royal Highness has in mind, Wizard Glinde?”

Merlin asked curiously. The eighth prince had specially sent Glinde here, so it was definitely not a small matter.

Glinde gently shook his head. “His Royal Highness didn’t say. Wizard Merlin would naturally know why when you go there.”

Merlin nodded and said to Wizard Bammou, “Bammou, you stay here. I’ll go see the eighth prince.”

Wizard Bammou did not say much either. His figure vanished again in the blink of an eye, just like a ghost, so much so that it made Wizard Glinde very astonished. Now, he finally understood why His Royal Highness the eighth prince would highly value Merlin. It was not entirely because of Wizard Leo. Instead, it was because Merlin himself had admirable strength.

“Wizard Merlin, please come with me.”

Shortly after, Merlin followed behind Wizard Glinde and walked toward the eighth prince’s residence.
