《A Wizard’s Secret》A Wizard's Secret

"Boom!"
There was another violent collision. Great Wizard Kansu was directly thrown to the ground and looked well-beaten. That black shark king beast was hot on his heels, its huge body once again pressed onto Great Wizard Kansu.
A hint of fury flashed across Great Wizard Kansu's face. He then lightly pressed his hands onto the ground.
"Bam!"
The entire island seemed to be shaking. Exuberant streaks of Earth elements quickly gathered, forming a giant in mid-air, which was about a dozen meters in height.
"Hmph, Earth-type spells is my forte. The great Earth Giant, go!"
Nobody knew what spell or even Pandora Demon Ability that Great Wizard Kansu had cast. This was a strong power that could only be used by a Great Wizard.
The enormous giant moved its body and started running speedily. It raised both its hands and slammed toward the black shark king beast.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
The two behemoths fought wildly on the island, and not one Spell Caster dared to approach wherever they passed. This small island also seemed rather incapable of supporting the battle between the Earth Giant and the black shark king beast. As a result, huge cracks started forming on the ground as if it would completely collapse instantly.
Watching the Earth Giant fighting frenziedly with the black shark king beast, they seemed evenly matched. However, the Earth elements on the Earth Giant waned lesser and lesser, while the black shark king beast fought more and more aggressively. Based on the current projection, the Earth Giant's defeat was only a matter of time.
Great Wizard Kansu gnashed his teeth and said to Wizard Umo and the others, "I've done my best, but I still can't kill this black shark king beast. I advise all of you to leave quickly. Waiting here is almost like waiting to die! According to the previous agreement, I could step out first in case of an obvious defeat. It's a shame, the Kurdmansla Islands could've lasted a little longer..."
Great Wizard Kansu was actually leaving. The expressions of Wizard Umo and the others changed. Even if they desperately tried everything to hinder a black shark king beast, if there was no Great Wizard Kansu, they would not have the slightest chance when facing the two black shark king beasts.
"Go, go, go. We've lost, we've really lost, Gray Wing Alliance is dissolved here and now, but as long as we escape, there's still a chance to re-establish Gray Wing Alliance in other places."
"Wizard's Tower is ruined too. We can't be like those people from Fort Udon. They knew there was no chance, but they kept defending desperately. Let's flee at once. Even if we become Roaming Wizards, it's better than dying here."

Seeing that Great Wizard Kansu was preparing to leave, Spell Casters of Wizard's Tower and Gray Wing Alliance almost broke down. Countless Spell Casters were demoralized and no longer committed to their fight, fleeing wildly from the Kurdmansla Islands.
"All gone, Umo... There's already no hope that the three of us can level up to Great Wizards hence we built Fort Udon, hoping to leave something behind. Now, even Fort Udon will be gone soon..."
Wizard Dip, one of the three fort leaders of Fort Udon, said calmly.
"Yeah, Fort Udon is the hard work of us three. The Kurdmansla Islands are the foundation of Fort Udon. It's really regrettable that it'll be destroyed now. However, the three of us have already lived for a long time. Let's buy those young ones a little more time to escape."
Another fort leader of Fort Udon, Wizard Fer, whispered. He saw that many of the island's Spell Casters were chased by a large number of sea beasts, but a smile etched on the corner of his lips.
Wizard Umo also laughed, then nodded and said, "Yes, the three of us have lived for a long time, but it is a pity that Fort Udon..."
Subsequently, the three renowned Spell Casters of Fort Udon – Wizard Umo, Wizard Dip, and Wizard Fer – gradually rose into the air, mysterious runes appearing on their bodies.
These runes continuously intertwined and entangled, faintly connecting the three into one unit. This was the strongest technique of the three Fort Udon leaders. It was not known from where they obtained such a magical Runic Magic Circle. It could surprisingly combine the spells cast by the trio, unleashing unparalleled power.
This was also the real reason why Fort Udon could suppress Wizard's Tower and Gray Wing Alliance. If these three men acted together, they may still not be comparable to a Great Wizard, but they could definitely be considered the pinnacle of Ninth-level Wizardry.
However, the trio was really too minute in front of the two gigantic black shark king beasts...
"Fort leader..."
Many of the Fort Udon Spell Casters were very touched as they watched the three figures in mid-air. In Fort Udon, they had enjoyed a kind of tranquility that was hard to savor after becoming a Spell Caster.
In Fort Udon, there was no backstabbing, no deception, and no jealousy. There was only a strong and harmonious atmosphere. All this was because the three fort leaders of Fort Udon had established an unshakable trust between themselves throughout the centuries.
This was also the unique aspect of Fort Udon. Their Spell Casters did not seem to be full of wisdom or exceptionally calm. Instead, it looked more like a faction formed by a group of idealists.

However, this faction which had made countless Spell Casters feel warm and belonged would accompany the Kurdmansla Islands to extinction.
"Kill!"
Finally, along with Wizard Umo's yell, a blazing flame immediately emerged on the three fort leaders' bodies, seemingly about to encompass the entire island. Even the sky was faintly tinted with a hue of flaming red.
Through the Runic Magic Circle, the spells that the three had cast were merged together, its powers instantly increased significantly. However, just as they were preparing to attack the black shark king beast, the flames that they had just released into the skies seemed like they were repressed by an invisible force as the countless flames begin to extinguish.
"Eh? Wait, what's going on?"
Wizard Umo immediately discovered the anomaly. He could clearly feel that the surrounding flames had obviously weakened tremendously as if there was an invisible force that subdued the flames hovering the sky.
"My Spell Model, the Fire-type Spell Model, why is it suppressed?"
"Mine too, the Fire-type spells are even suppressed to the point where they can't be released anymore. What's going on?"
Not only Wizard Umo and the rest, many Spell Casters who stayed on the island also felt the abnormality. The Spell Models in their bodies, especially Fire-type Spell Models, seemed to have been blanketed by an invisible force, which restricted them from casting Fire-type spells.
Great Wizard Kansu, who had not managed to leave the island yet, also stopped in his tracks. A strange glimmer flashed across his eyes too. After all, he was a Great Wizard, standing almost at the peak of the Spell Caster world.
Now, Great Wizard Kansu had surprisingly felt the suppression of the Fire-type spells in his body. This kind of suppression was very immense. Even if he wanted to release Fire-type spells, he may be able to release them forcibly, but the power would be much weaker than usual.
"What's really happening? How could there be a force that can suppress my Spell Model? This is impossible!"
Great Wizard Kansu knew very clearly that he had never encountered this kind of power which can suppress the spells in a Great Wizard's body.
When all the Spell Casters were panicking, a glint of flame appeared in the middle of the vast sea. This flame looked extremely odd – it was spread from the bottom of the sea.
The vast sea was entirely filled with seawater, but now, these flames seem to be burning the ocean. They appeared on the surface of the sea, gradually spreading into the air, and the scorching atmosphere instantly pervaded the entire island.
It could even be seen that the high temperature had evaporated the seawater as thick mist appeared to be lingering over the sea.
The flames became more vigorous as it burned. Many Spell Casters could feel that their Spell Models could no longer absorb a single trace of Fire element because all the Fire elements were gathered over the sea, forming a violent Sea of Flames.
This was an actual Sea of Flames. Even the ocean was burning. There were flames everywhere. The sea beasts which were extremely fierce moments ago seemed to have sensed the dangerous atmosphere as they began to feel a little uneasy.
"Look, what's that?"
Everyone did not know what these sudden flames were, but soon, a figure seemed to be condensing rapidly at the seemingly endless stretch of flames.
It was an incredibly stalwart body, up to several kilometers in height. Even the two gigantic black shark king beasts appeared miniature in front of this newly condensed flame figure.
With the formation of this Flame Giant, everyone felt an unimaginable oppressive force as if in front of this stalwart Flame Giant, they were as tiny as the countless sand on the beach.
The Flame Giant had not fully formed yet as it was still morphing a face intensely. The clouds in the sky had long been dispelled by the flames. Everything within dozens of miles in the vast sea was all covered in flames. The entire sky turned fiery-red, and even the sun seemed to have been replaced, becoming a fiery-red glimmer of flame.
Soon, the huge face of the Flame Giant was formed. It was an unfamiliar and fearsome face. Its eyes were still closed, but it had already made many Spell Casters afraid of looking at it directly.
In the eyes of a Spell Caster, god did not exist. In their view, they themselves were the most powerful beings. As for the god propagated by the Church of Light, even the lowest-level Spell Casters would disregard.
However, looking at this enormous body of flame, they all simultaneously thought of "god" in their minds.
When the Flame Giant formed a face, a puzzled look flashed across Wizard Umo's face, but then he shook his head. The thought that emerged in his mind seemed to be absurd but it was right in front of him now.
However, among the crowd, there was still one person who, upon seeing the face of the Flame Giant, revealed an astonished expression.
"Is this Wizard Merlin? How could he have such great powers to become a Flame Giant?"
Wizard Bayton took a deep breath, unable to suppress the shock in his heart!

Those who dislike subject material surrounding loss, depression, grief, should probably not read. With that said, the story evolves into a supernatural thriller past the initial chapters. It’s a comparably low fantasy for a website like this but hope some of you still enjoy it.
