Just when everyone else was thinking who this voice belonged to, Duke Edwin had already noticed the slowly fading away black symbols on Ozul's leg.

This scene shook him to the core! Why would the leg which his brother had left behind more than 20 years ago attach to a random child?!

'Is he... No! How could he be Edward's late child!?'

Edwin could not believe his own eyes. But it wasn't hard to figure out that the limb belonged to the kid in front of him because his arms were also prosthetic.

Ozul was shirtless, even someone with weak eyesight could notice those mechanical arms much less a Rank-8 Mage like Edwin.

However, he thought that his earlier assumption of the limbs being his late brother's late son was wrong.

How could that baby without three of his limbs even survive? It was not possible in his eyes. But that raised the question of this kid's origins.

Who was he that even his limbs could mass-produce such heaven-defying elixirs? And if even the parts were so precious, what about him as a whole?

Greed flashed through Duke Edwin's eyes as he assessed the situation. In the face of riches, he forgot that this was the same kid who had almost killed Podas and also was the cause of Monster's death.

Many grandmasters in runes had checked the black symbols, but they couldn't find anything except for the constant energy that it radiated.

However, what if they could research this kid alive? They would undoubtedly uncover the mysteries behind it. And if he presented this kid to his Majesty, he would be swimming in the riches for several decades!

With such thoughts in his mind, he hurriedly moved towards Ozul.

———————

Ozul was in a good mood today. This feeling was the closest to when he was conscious for the first time. At that time, he was not only complete but also surrounded by darkness.

After that, he was not only stolen from his comfort, but they also took away his limbs. Only now had he regained one of his parts back.

One would think that there was nothing at this moment that could remove that smile on his face. However, when Ozul noticed Duke Edwin, his 'uncle', coming over with a smile on his face, he recovered his stoic face.

Raven and Blaze had caught up to him, and both stood only a few steps away from him gaping at the leg.

Ozul did not bother explaining anything to them and stared coldly at the approaching Duke Edwin.

"Hahaha... Young man, you survived!"

Duke Edwin tried to approach him in a friendly way, but then he noticed that the kid in front of him was still staring at him stoically.

"Oh, you may not know. But I'm Duke Edwin Abilon. Young man, I saw that you bravely fought together with my men. I really appreciate it. Why don't you come together with me?"

Edwin thought that introducing himself would make the kid change his attitude because no one would disrespect a Duke of the Silverbird Kingdom.

However, he was bound to be disappointed since he was dealing with the ever stoic Ozul. Not to mention that Ozul did not like this guy one bit.

Because he was the one who had sold off his limbs to different parties, making his life difficult. When Edwin sensed not even an ounce of change in his attitude, he started to boil inside.

"Where are my arms?"

Ozul's voice sounded out confusing many of the onlookers, but these words stunned Edwin. He stood rooted on the ground looking at Ozul with wide eyes.

"H-how do you know that?!"

Edwin shouted while pointing his shaking finger at Ozul. He could not believe that someone would know of this secret. Moreover, he had never come into contact with this kid, so how did he know that!?

"Tell me now... I'll spare you the pain."

The Monster had created a ruckus, and Ozul knew that soon, all the concerned parties would come to check the area. So, he did not have much time before he left from here.

"W-what do you mean, kid! And don't you know..."

Edwin's voice was cut off in the middle when suddenly, out of nowhere, his hands fell off!

He looked at the hands on the ground before moving his gaze back to his shoulder; his foolish expression revealed how he did not even believe that this was reality!

How could his, a Rank-8 Mage's hands just fall off on the ground? It doesn't even make any sense! However, the two small blood fountains that spurted out of his shoulders were the reality check that woke him up.

"Ahhhhhh..."

His cry of scream reverberated in the surroundings, which took everyone by surprise again, since this cry did not lose to the Monster's shrieks.

"You wanna tell me now?"

Only now did Edwin look at Ozul's face, which still did not show any emotions. However, this did explain the reason for his hands suddenly falling off.

"What d-did you do!!!?"

*Thud*

Though just as Edwin shouted, he fell to the ground! Moving his gaze to his lower body, he saw that now his leg was cut off!

Edwin quickly chanted the Spells to stop the bleeding, but when he looked up at Ozul again, the fear mixed with rage was apparent on his face.

This time he did not dare to say anything as he knew that his other leg would probably be cut off next. Not everyone was like Ozul; they could not just detach their limbs now and attach it back later!

"Tell me. Where are my arms."

"I g-gave them to... his Majesty, Emperor Luthien."

Edwin said with a twisted expression. His words paused in the middle while enduring the pain. He came clean, hoping that the kid would let him off.

However, for some reason, the next second, he could somehow see his own headless body kneeling on the ground before it all blacked out!

Not only the onlookers, but even Raven and Blaze were also stunned to see Ozul kill a Rank-8 Mage without lifting a finger.

They couldn't even see how it was happening, but everyone was sure that this was Ozul's doing.

After that, Ozul bent down and cut open Edwin's chest. He put his prosthetic arm inside the chest and pulled out the Mana Core.

Tossing the Core to Raven for storing it, Ozul moved his gaze to everyone present on the scene.

No one had even said after witnessing Duke Edwin's death. Raven and Blaze had many questions, but it seemed that this was not the time to ask. So they only awaited Ozul's orders.

When Ozul had swept his gaze over the survivors, all of them had a chill run down their spine. And their fears came true when they heard;

"Kill everyone."
