“This scroll I found from an ancient ruin, so it’s not from this era,” Madam Zhou said as Ciel began to scrutinize the scroll.
In response, Ciel said, “I can feel a deep and boundless power.”
While saying that, he absorbed the information inside the scroll, which had no barrier at all so it easily entered his head.
After finishing, he was only more and more amazed. 𝗈𝓋𝓛xt.𝒞𝒪𝓂
“Madam, this technique you provided is truly priceless, I am not sure if I can repay your kindness,” he said, sounding very sincere because he did say it sincerely.
That technique was indeed very extraordinary, it could be an unparalleled attack when combined with the Holy Spirit Flame.
Ciel then returned the scroll to Madam Zhou.
However, the latter suddenly pushed the scroll back to him.
“Prince, please keep it. It is more suitable in the hands of those of you who are serious about studying it,” she said.
Ciel was a little surprised that she had suggested that. For a few moments, he was silent, looking at Madam Zhou uncertainly.
Of course, he knew Madam Zhou’s purpose in doing all this. However, he thought this woman was indeed too kind.
Even if her kindness was for her ambition, she could at least make it all look natural.
In the end, Ciel chose to keep the scroll in his storage ring because he did not think Madam Zhou should force him to keep the scroll.
“Please drink the wine, Prince.” The woman invited Ciel again.
Ciel nodded, took the cup and brought it to his mouth.
He glanced at Mu Yixue and found that she was only focused on eating her own food, as if she didn’t care about what he was doing.
Perhaps she didn’t like the interaction between Ciel and Madam Zhou so she chose to remain silent.
Ciel didn’t care about her thoughts either.
The moment the cup arrived in front of him, he started drinking the wine, and was quickly surprised by the sweet and sour taste that was far beyond his expectations.
It also had a combination of cold and warm, which when it entered his stomach, seemed to speed up his blood flow.
The effect was that he instantly became extremely refreshed and energized, more so than he had ever felt in his life.
He drank faster until the cup was completely empty.
“How are you feeling, Prince?” Madam Zhou observed Ciel, looking as curious as the others.
Since she had only ever drunk a little of the wine, so the effect she felt was also slight.
She did not know what the effect would be when drinking one cup of the wine.
“Too incredible,” Ciel replied, looking at her and smiling.
He was not drunk, or rather his mind was completely stable, but it seemed that every function of his body was pushed to the highest point with a very comfortable feeling.
Perhaps this could still be considered a hangover, but a high-class hangover.
Ciel wasn’t sure either.
To be sure, his brain was now concentrating on understanding the Fire Moon, and it was doing its own process without him trying to think.
Even when he wasn’t meditating, and his eyes were open while his mouth was chatting with someone else, the process was still happening.
And the process was also very fast.
“I think I need a place to release power,” Ciel said.
He said that because there was indeed energy that needed to be released as his energy wanted to use that technique.
“I will take you to the courtyard now,” said Madam Zhou.
She then enveloped Ciel with her spiritual energy and moved, taking Ciel with her.
In an instant, they appeared in her courtyard.
“You can use your powers now, Prince,” the woman said.
Ciel jumped into the air and then looked up.
At the same time, transparent flames emanated from his body, burning the air around him.
It was a sight that shocked Madam Zhou enough that she said, “Holy Spirit Flame, this might be an extraordinary combination.”
That made her even more curious about Ciel.
Shua!
Suddenly above Ciel’s head, the sky darkened slightly while a full moon appeared between the sky and his head, a moon that somehow emitted extreme heat.
The sight was enough to attract the attention of the people in the city. They were surprised by the phenomenon produced by Ciel who was only a Spiritual King, making them wonder what technique he was using.
The flames on his body then surged upwards, merging with the moon to make it somewhat transparent.
The heat emitted by the moon increased very quickly, but of course, that was not the point of the technique.
BANG!
A loud explosion echoed from the moon. It then spun, so fast that it was difficult to predict its speed.
However, it wasn’t just spinning, it was also circling Ciel at the same speed, just like how the moon circled the earth.
Ciel moved his fingers and soon the moon stopped.
It could now move following his commands.
Of course, if he wanted to, he could also use the moon as a weapon. When it was used to attack, it could easily destroy the mountain.
However, the real point of the Fire Moon was to blow it up, resulting in an explosion similar to that of the moon.
At that point, it would release boundless flames.
Perhaps words cannot describe the horror, but when the Fire Moon actually explodes, one needs two lives to stay alive.
Ciel wasn’t planning on using that now because he didn’t want anyone to see it.
After feeling that he could control the technique perfectly, he withdrew all his strength before descending into the courtyard once more.
Only, just when he wanted to approach Madam Zhou, a man suddenly came towards him. It was unknown how he entered Madam Zhou’s territory, but the latter only stayed silent with a furrowed forehead.
“Your Highness the Ice Prince!” The man called out to Ciel in a very friendly tone.
As Ciel looked at him, he handed Ciel a golden paper.
“This is Madam Maya’s invitation for you to witness the battle of the two Mighty Hegemons in her Colosseum tonight, Madam hopes you can come,” he said.
