Border

The Monster carriage is moving towards the mountain range. It's a remote area of the capital.

The movement of the people is low. Only the locals from the city often used to visit the mountain range.

Time passed,

In the carriage, I'm listening to the passengers' conversation. Since I'm wearing a mask, they were hesitant to speak to me.

It also saves me from sharing details. All I wanted was to reach the mountain range as soon as possible.

A few hours later,

The carriage stops at the border. Hereafter, the passengers can leave. I stepped outside and thanked the carriage owner before leaving.

After entering the forest, everyone parted ways. Each had their own mission. I remembered the route, so I didn't waste time and started going towards the stone house area.

I didn't stop anywhere. If I use the Raven Aircraft outside, it would draw attention. I had already come across the tribal people earlier.

Not everyone can be friendly. If I come across a group with the Forbidden Wizards as their heads, then it would be troublesome.

...

Raymond Family

The Raymond Family was in a state of alert. No one was allowed to leave the premises, including the staff working there.

They had heard the news about Young Master Raymond's disappearance. The matter was not kept secret.

Some staff working in the operations of the sky carriers spread the news. It has now reached everyone's ears.

The elder hall:

A bloodied old man was kneeling in front of a white-haired, middle-aged man. The white-haired, middle-aged man was none other than the Head of the Raymond Wizard Family.

His name is Angus Raymond. He has a robust physique. He was adorned in a battle uniform. Clearly, he was responsible for the nation's border.

Right now, Angus was angry. He demanded answers from the bloodied person. The bloodied person was none other than the old man Butler.

He was the one who had last seen Young Master Raymond in his cabin.

There are other elders in the room. All of them have powerful auras around them. Anyone here could cause a storm in the outside world.

Yet they were part of a single family.

Angus Raymond was seated in his seat.

"Tell me, what you said just now was the truth?" he asked.

Hearing that, the old man shuddered. Earlier, he truly believed that Young Master Raymond would return. But he was wrong. Something had happened to him.

"Yes, my words are the truth. I did see someone impersonating the kitchen staff. That person entered the cabin room as the last person."

"When I went to check the room, I saw no one in the room. But later, the impersonator left as the cleaning staff. When I realized it, it was too late."

"I had assembled everyone on the deck in the next few minutes, but the person had disappeared. I think he is someone with space-type magic. He took away Young Master Raymond silently," the butler said.

"Kelly, is he telling the truth?" Angus asked.

A female elder stepped forward. Her eyes glowed for a second. She said, "I used my magic. I didn't find any falsehood in his words."

Gasp!

A small exclamation occurred in the room.

Angus gritted his teeth and said, "So your words were true."

"I can spare your life, but the punishment cannot be avoided." After saying that, he used his index finger to press in mid-air.

Boom!

The next second, all the old man Butler felt was being hit by tremendous pressure. The spell model in his mind was shattered.

His mana core in the mana core space was destroyed. His veins and meridians were shattered next. Numerous bones broke as well.

He became a useless person the next moment.

"Take him to the dark cell. I sentence him until his death," Angus said.

Gulp!

The elders who were close to the old man Butler sucked in a cold breath of air. They didn't know what to say. The crime was serious.

How could he let someone capture Young Master Raymond under his nose? They could only silently pity him in their hearts.

Elder Kelly's eyes flashed with light. Nobody knows what's on her mind.

Angus swept his gaze across everyone. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

He then said, "There is only one possibility. The enemy has acted. They used the tournament atmosphere to infiltrate the Great Capital to capture my son."

"Humph," he snorted with anger.

The other elders were quiet. They were not ready to offer any suggestions right now. Because the enemy who did this could be a Forbidden Wizard.

It's because Young Master Raymond himself was a Magic Lord. It's impossible for another Magic Lord to capture him, even a wizard who uses space magic.

It's because Young Master Raymond has no rivals at the Magic Lord level. His dark magic is powerful. The dark magic rule power was especially complete.

The next step is the Forbidden Wizard. That's why they were not sure what to suggest.

Angus saw that the elders were quiet. He calmed his anger.

He asked, "Is there any way to track down the enemy?"

Hearing that, the elders looked at one another. How to track a space wizard? Only another space wizard can do that. But it has been several hours.

The imprints might have disappeared.

Angus heard the murmurs. His heart turned cold. His son had treasures which could be used to contact him.

He silently took a small necklace from his clothes. He opened the locket. There was a small tube inside. The small tube exhibited ancient magic power.

Inside the small tube was a colorless liquid. If one looked at it closely, they could see tadpole-like runes. It was created by a powerful Life Wizard who was at the Elder-level powerful.

It was given by him. If the small tube were to break, then the life of his son Raymond would come to an end.

Right now, the tube is intact. All he needed was to find out the whereabouts of his son. Once he located the place, he would request help from the ancestors.

They are Elder-level powerhouses. They would easily rescue his son. He then put away the necklace in his pocket.
