Water Mage in the Flame Realm-Chapter 436 - 416: Fortress in the Sky

The difference in power among professionals of different tiers is not just in strength; the world they perceive is also fundamentally different.

A "storm" which even ordinary Realm of Magic experts cannot see vaguely appeared in Andrew’s perception.

The storm fills every corner of the world, and those who cannot see it will not be harmed by it at all.

But when a professional begins to see them, even one careless moment can result in being torn to pieces by the storm, crushed into powder, a Realm of Magic expert cannot withstand it.

In fact, only those who have reached the pinnacle of the Realm of Magic have the preliminary qualification to see these storms.

These are "Chaos Storms" composed of "World Rules."

Catching even the outermost layer, the so-called "World Surface Rules," is enough to enter the domain of the gods.

Andrew vaguely saw that storm of rules, but very honestly did not try to touch it.

This honesty is not cowardice, but stability: Andrew firmly stands at the pinnacle of the Realm of Magic, cautiously avoiding any form of contact with any part of that rule storm.

This is an extreme focus: eliminating all interference, first concentrate power to deal with the Poison Dragon Lady!

Andrew focused so much that he didn’t even use disguise magic to conceal his face and figure.

The Poison Dragon Lady, just as she pulled him out, immediately glanced at his face, wanting to see who this hidden expert of the Wildfire Territory really was.

Upon clearly seeing Andrew’s face, the Poison Dragon Lady was stunned.

"How... how could it be you??"

The Poison Dragon Lady’s reaction was even more unexpected and shocking than the desolate one in the Water God Realm who had just seen Andrew’s identity.

Simultaneously shocked, both their actions were exactly the same: send a message! Immediately report to the Scholar’s Fortress, to Gus and the others! 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Sending a message from the Water God Realm to the Flame Realm is naturally much more difficult and slower than sending information within the Flame Realm.

Previously, twice—once by Liek and once by the desolate one—Andrew successfully intercepted the message intended to be sent back to the Scholar’s Fortress about his whereabouts.

This time, facing the Poison Dragon Lady’s message delivery which required no plane crossing, Andrew remained indifferent.

Simply letting her send the message.

Meanwhile, Andrew’s arm suddenly reached forward, grabbing the Poison Dragon Lady’s chest!

The moment she was grabbed, the Poison Dragon Lady felt a chilling fear.

Like in the animal kingdom, when one animal encounters its natural enemy, the fear that arises from the depths of the soul and bloodline.

She felt as though, as an Earth Fire Mage, her whole body was being "restrained" by Andrew in front of her.

This feeling was accurate: Andrew’s true name was indeed the Fire Extinguishing Saint Son.

Now that the power of the true name had fully awakened, Andrew was not much stronger in absolute power than when he was in the Water God Realm.

The real difference lay in Andrew’s restraint against Earth Fire Professionals now.

This was the true meaning of "extinguishing fire!"

Power flowed through the palm, instantly penetrating the opponent’s chest.

Water Power charged directly into the Fire Power within the opponent’s body.

In the Water God Realm, the recently understood "Sky Attribute" rushed straight into the Earth Attribute within the Poison Dragon Lady.

Thus Water Overcomes Fire, Sky Restrains Earth, a virtually comprehensive, no dead angle, completely targeted restraint—

With a bang, as if something shattered within the Poison Dragon Lady.

The Poison Dragon Lady felt every bit of Earth Fire Power in her body shattered, then disappeared.

"How could it be?!" The Poison Dragon Lady screamed in disbelief.

She was even too shocked to be startled by the fact that Andrew had shown power of the Realm of Magic.

Andrew’s targeted restraint was fundamentally different from exorcism, containing no mercy, only cruelty and decisiveness!

"Ah ah... ah ah ah!" The Poison Dragon Lady suddenly screamed in pain.

Her body suddenly swelled like a balloon.

Andrew only targeted her Professional Power, performing a surgical precision cleave.

He didn’t strike against her life itself.

But... losing Professional Power in an instant, losing the Earth Fire Magic Power of an Earth Fire Mage, the toxins within the Poison Dragon Lady’s body immediatly went out of control.

"Wait... wait—!" The Poison Dragon Lady shouted desperately.

Her body, swelled to the limit, exploded with a boom.

The toxins within her body, thus exploded along as well!

These toxins shouldn’t explode, but Andrew seemed prepared, operating his power to encircle the toxins, easily gathering them all up, then casually obliterating them.

Greed Dragon Poison is essentially a type of Fire Poison.

The true name power Andrew just operated actually already eliminated the Fire Power in the toxins, breaking it down into less fearsome toxins.

Plus with the toxins’ explosion lacking War God Level power to propel them, the real threat was actually less than Tiago previously.

The room was cleared of toxins.

The Poison Dragon Lady and Tiago’s bodily remains were also cleared away by Andrew.

Now, if someone entered the room, they wouldn’t even think that two infiltrators from the Magic Guild had been here just moments ago!

As for the intelligence signal the Poison Dragon Lady sent out previously, it silently vanished on its way to the Scholar’s Fortress after Andrew dealt with her.

Sunlight poured through the window into the room, casting a golden layer over everything.

An Ya stood in the sunlight, but was already stunned.

Everything before her eyes felt somewhat dreamy, a sense of unrealness.

An Ya had great confidence in Andrew, to be sure, but... that was the Dragon Taming Lady!

In the Flame Realm today, those who can face the Dragon Taming Lady one-on-one can be counted on one hand.

No matter how genius Lord of the territory is, he shouldn’t be at that level.

But what happened? Andrew finished off the Dragon Taming Lady faster than he dealt with the Second Saint Son Tiago!

An Ya, though not focused mainly on Magic Cultivation, was after all the owner of Pure White Flame, and after being taught by Falk, she learned quite a lot about the world of professionals.

She simply couldn’t believe everything that just happened before her eyes!

So as Andrew took care of the Poison Dragon Lady, confirmed the toxin was completely cleared, confirmed the signal was completely intercepted, all confirmed, finally breathed out a sigh then smiled again looking at An Ya—

An Ya stepped back instead.

Andrew: "?"

Seeing An Ya step back while the expression on her face turned from surprise to vigilance, Andrew couldn’t help but feel puzzled and said, "An Ya, it’s me, I’m not dead—"

"Enough! You don’t need to say anything!" An Ya shook her head repeatedly, saying sternly, "Lord in our family is very powerful among the younger generation, should be the strongest among the young ones. But that Dragon Taming Lady is a top expert of the older generation! You impersonating Lord of our family, really resemble him a lot, but... it’s too much! Too much and it’s fake! Who are you really? Why impersonate Lord of our family?!"

Andrew: "..."

Finally understanding that the strength he showed was too strong, making it hard for An Ya to believe his identity.

"Uh, so as Lord of the Wildfire Territory, returning to my own domain, I have to prove my identity first, huh?" Having some mixed feelings.

Fortunately, now that both the Poison Dragon Lady and Tiago were dealt with, the territorial crisis was initially resolved. He also had a basic understanding of the situation in the second Dual Fire War.

Next, he could slowly explain to An Ya, since time was now on his side.

"Hmm, where to start though?" Andrew thought, then said, "Here’s the thing, after the Royal Court negotiations, I—"

Andrew paused again, this time not interrupted by An Ya, but stopping himself.

Like suddenly realizing something, Andrew swiftly turned his head, looking out the window, then revealing an extremely strange expression, as if seeing something extraordinarily unusual.

Seeing the "Andrew" across having such an expression, An Ya became more vigilant. Actually, if not for this "Andrew" having just saved her, she would have already called for people.

"What kind of expression is that? You want to trick me into looking out the window with that, huh? I won’t fall for it!" An Ya said fiercely, though her eyes quickly glanced out the window.

But just this glance made her, like Andrew, unable to withdraw her gaze from a certain direction outside the window.

Beyond the window, in the distance, at the junction of sky and desert, a stone tower, along with a giant fortress, was flying straight towards the Wildfire Territory.
