Since Count George already lost enough of his face in front of his citizens, he decided not to use the low-ranking forbidden spells as he already used them twice and both didn’t work against Yuan.
And despite them being forbidden spells, they couldn’t even put a little scratch on Yuan’s body, which is a great disappointment for him and also an embarrassment.
And since the two forbidden spells didn’t even make a scratch on Yuan’s body, despite the spell possessing the destructive power of lightning. Therefore, Count George decided to take a risk and used his most powerful forbidden spell which is a Tier-6 spell, not many people know about this spell except for his wife and his butler, who isn’t with him at the moment.
‘Although ‘that’ spell is very difficult to handle, and there is an eighty percent chance that it will erase half of the city from the map once I conjure ‘that’ spell… It’s a huge risk that I must take to risk to save my face…’ With a serious look on his face, he pondered inwardly, preparing himself mentally to use his most powerful forbidden spell.
“Agh!” Suddenly, Count George let out a low groan feeling a sharp pain in his head, his face became pale and he felt that he was slowly losing his strength.
“Father!? What happened to you? Are you okay?” Henrik immediately rushed to his father and held his father’s body, preventing him from falling.
‘What the hell is happening with me? Why am I feeling so weak all of a sudden? And…agh! What is this sharp pain I’m feeling?!’ Count George mumbled to himself inwardly with a puzzled expression on his face, he couldn’t perceive why is he feeling so weak and sick all of a sudden.
“Father, are you alright?” Henrik asked, sensing his father’s magical power had become particularly weak, he became panicked.
However, Count George disregarded his son’s concern and focused his gaze on Yuan’s figure who stood at a distance holding the massive sword in a single hand.
When Count George noticed Yuan’s provoking smile, his countenance grew ugly, and he felt as if he could wipe that arrogant grin from his face with a forceful punch.
“Agh!” However, when he became furious at Yuan, he again felt a sharp pain in his head as if a hot needle pierced his skull and it pierced his brain.
The onlookers become shocked seeing their City Lord suddenly scream in pain for a second time while holding his head with both hands, they were puzzled by this.
“What happened to the city Lord? Why is he like that?”
“I don’t know, It must be something related to his magic.”
“Indeed. He used such powerful forbidden spells, it’s bound to have some serious consequences of welding such power.”
“I don’t know much about magic myself, but your logic sounds quite plausible.”
“I also think the same.”
“It seems that City is now at a disadvantage…”
“It seems that way.”
The onlookers immediately began whispering to one another about this, and the whole vicinity was filled with people’s whispers.
Not only the onlookers were surprised to see Count George like this, but Yuan and his wives as well as Leah and Miss Brooklyn were also equally surprised by the sudden change in Count George’s demeanor.
‘Oh, I see…so he was having a backlash of using two forbidden spells. Serves him right for being so arrogant monkey, now suffer you, arrogant bastard!’ Yuan spoke inwardly with a grin on his face, as though he was enjoying seeing Count George suffer like this from his own spell.
Count George, Meanwhile, as he held his head with both hands in pain, suddenly he realized something, ‘T-This pain… Is this perhaps the side effect of using forbidden spells? And I’ve already used two of them… Not only I’m feeling a terrible headache at this moment but my body has also become weak and I’ve also lost a huge amount of mana too.’
‘This must be the side-effects of using forbidden spells, it must be!’ Count George finally comprehends what caused him to suddenly feel such sharp pain in his head and his body and magical power becoming weak.
‘We don’t have time to waste. If I don’t hurry, I’ll lose consciousness before casting that spell, and I only have enough mana to cast ‘that’ spell… It’s a great risk but I have to do this.’ Count George evaluated his current situation and balanced himself properly using his son as his support.
“Hahaha, do you think you still have the strength to kill me? You’re being delusional, Count George Monbrook! Look at your current pathetic state, you can’t even stand on your own now.” Yuan frowned at him and laughed at his weak state.
“Don’t you dare look down on me, you bastard!” Count George furiously roared at Yuan pointing his magical wand at him. “I may look weak to you…but I still have the strength to kill you!”
“That’s right. Don’t look down on us, you insolent bastard. We’ve noble blood running through our veins, don’t compare us with some lowly mages!”
Henrik also roared at Yuan nodding at his father’s words, he kept glancing at Yuan’s wives from time to time, he couldn’t wait for his father to defeat Yuan so he could have his wives for himself.
‘That teacher… He isn’t worried about the impending danger which is looming above his head but instead, he is staring at us… What a great idiot.’ Yuan’s wives thought, noticing Henrik staring at them from time to time.
However, Leah and Miss Brooklyn look worried after hearing Count George’s bold words, they know that he is a formidable figure within the kingdom and won’t run out of tricks.
‘Count Monbrook must be planning something dangerous…I hope that nothing happened to this young man… Or my building.’ Miss Brooklyn pondered, she couldn’t help but feel very concerned after seeing the look on Count George’s face.
“Stop wasting my time and come at me, I’m feeling tired from walking so long!” Yuan shouted at Count George as he was getting tired of wasting his time, if he wanted to he could’ve ended this fight long ago.
However, Yuan doesn’t just want to win the fight, but he wants to teach Count George and his son a lesson that their strength is nothing compared to him and their spells won’t work against him.
He wants to make the father and son duo feel despair, and completely shatter their pride as a noble.
Count George’s expression become very ugly after hearing Yuan’s words, he felt as though he was swallowed a mouthful of fresh shit. How dare a lowly hunter look down on the noble blood of the Monbrook family? This is unforgivable!
As he stared at Yuan, his face began to flush with redness shortly after.
Once he reached the boiling point, with a trembling hand he pointed his magical wand at Yuan, and roared at the top of his lungs, “YOU BASTARD!! YOU’VE CROSSED THE LINE!! HOW DARE YOU LOOK DOWN ON ME? THE CITY LORD AND THE STRONGEST COUNT OF THE KINGDOM?!”
“I’LL KILL YOU, BASTARD!! YOU’VE NO RIGHT TO LIVE ANYMORE!! I’LL KILL YOU!!!!”
“You’re looking down on me, right? Then let me enlighten you on what a peak sixth-circle mage is capable of!!”
“LIGHTNING DRAGON OF DESTRUCTION… DESCENDED TO THE MORTAL WORLD AND OBLITERATE…EVERYTHING!” Count George roared angrily at the top of his lungs, and as he finished his chanting, an enormous amount of mana poured out of his body making him kneel on the ground.
“Hahaha” After finishing the chanting, Count George laughed like a maniac and turned to see Yuan with a wide vicious grin on his face. “Now you all will feel true despair… Prepare yourselves for your impending death, you don’t have much time left… Hahaha!”
“I have a bad feeling about this…” Miss Brooklyn mumbled in a dazed voice, feeling an indescribable pressure from above pressing down on her body.
Not only Miss Brooklyn but everyone within the city and the city’s surrounding area felt an indescribable pressure from above, and everyone looked towards heaven with a puzzled expression on their faces.
Looking toward the heavens, everyone’s eyes widened with surprise, they couldn’t believe what they were looking at…
The sky above turned dark and blocked the sunlight from reaching the entire Monbrook city and its surrounding area. 𝑙𝘪𝓇𝑎.𝘤𝑜𝑚
CRACK! CRACK! BANG!
Loud sounds of thunderclaps resounded in the whole city, the sound was so loud that it nearly burst the eardrums of the citizens, causing them to fall onto the ground covering their ears.
“What kind of calamity city Lord has called upon us?” One of the citizens mumbled in a seemingly dazed voice, feeling his heart almost stop beating from fear.
“Is City Lord planning to kill all of us in the city?”
“W-What are you saying? Don’t say this! I don’t want to die yet, I haven’t even proposed to the love of my life…”
Hearing the people’s desperate whispers, Count George broke into laughter.
“Haha, this is what you get for defying me, the strongest Count of the kingdom, Count George Monbrook! Now die under my strongest spell!”
Hearing this Henrik looked at his father with an awkward fearful look on his face, and said, “F-Father, won’t we end up dead along with them?”
“We won’t die. I’m wearing a powerful defensive artifact that can save us both from my forbidden spell’s destructive power.” Count said this to his son with a wide grin on his face.
“I see, I see, you’re very clever, father. Let this bastard die along with all those people…”
CRACK! BANG! Roarrrr!
The lightning fell onto the ground like a divine judgment from God, and suddenly something unusual happened as the lightning began to merge and formed a very massive lightning dragon, and it roared at all the people on the ground.
People were terrified seeing the enormous lightning dragon in the sky roaring fiercely at them, they fell onto their knees as though they were accepting their fate.
Yuan gazed at the lightning dragon with an amusing look on his face, “So this is your most powerful forbidden spell, I see… It looks quite intimidating…”
