Witch, Fireball and Steam Evil God

Chapter 126 The Straw That Broke the Camel's Back

"Actually, what we are discussing is the element of lightning. It's just some professional knowledge."

Ethan explained.

Rowena was fully revived, "Ha! I knew you, a bad cat, would still try to trick me. Am I such an easy person to be fooled? Don't forget, I have had dozens of dating experiences, and I can tell at a glance that you are still a virgin - oh my god, don't scratch your face, don't scratch people's faces!"

Ethan saw the cat leap out like a cannonball, swinging its claws left and right, hitting Rowena so hard that she held her head and begged for mercy.

He could only sigh that it was indeed Rowena, as she had actually made the emotionally stable teacher Maomao angry.

"Your ice element has also been upgraded?"

Ivy was shocked, and the golden hair on her head bent down. A trace of sadness quietly spread in Ethan's living room - the good brother who was on the same level as her in the past, has now changed, and there is a sad thick barrier between her and him.

Ethan explained to her his elemental energy-shaping magic. He could only practice one type of elemental magic at a time. Exploring lightning meant that he had completed the practice of the ice element.

But this... isn't it too fast?

Winter said that he had only been exposed to elemental magic for two years, and it took him only two years to complete the upgrade of the fire and ice systems respectively! Throughout history, Ivy couldn't think of anyone who could be compared with Ethan in terms of talent.

So, she still holds on to her previous views.

Ethan is not even human, they should really promote the Imperial Truth!
Ethan stretched out his left hand and condensed a light blue arc of electricity. The "crackling" sound distracted Rowena who was rolling on the ground, and then she was hit on the nose by the cat's claw. Fortunately, the cat retracted its claw in the end because of their old friendship, otherwise it would have left a bloody mark on her face.

After these days of discussions with Winter, his proficiency in Chain Lightning was successfully raised to the elementary level, which is already a level that can be directly applied in magical technology. However, during the research process, he found that the way Chain Lightning improved his proficiency was a bit strange.

Frostbolt and Fireball both require continuous casting of spells or killing of dark creatures to increase proficiency, but Lightning Chain's proficiency increases strangely when Winter, who is wearing a maid uniform, hugs his arm and rubs against him, without even having to cast a spell!

When Ethan told Winter about his amazing discovery that "watching the teacher wearing a maid outfit can improve my understanding of the element of lightning", he successfully received a roll of the eyes.

Despite this, Winter still wore the maid uniform all the time. Before leaving Gear City, she even asked him to go to the clothing store and buy a few more sets. The style of the uniforms was the same, the only difference was the color of the stockings.

In Winter's words, "Since this will help your practice, your teacher will naturally lend you a helping hand." But Ethan always felt that the teacher did not believe him at all. Of course, even he felt that this reason was a bit untenable. There would not be any magic book related to the element of lightning in the academy that would tell you that looking at maid uniforms more often would help your practice.

But that's the fact, he said it's true.

Ethan is an honest man.

"Oh, right." Ivy suddenly thought of something and asked, "Did you sell the Frost Arrow Scroll to that stupid and rich young nobleman in Hearth Bay before?"

"He was the first big customer of Lao Sen Magic Scroll Shop and provided me with important start-up capital."

Of course Ethan remembered the pure love nobleman who was in the same camp as him. If he came to the store again, he could grant him a VIP card, just like the "founder gift pack" in the game he had played before.

You can enjoy certain discounts when purchasing magic props, but the more important meaning lies in the symbol of status.

Ethan asked, "He's been in the store?"

"No, he couldn't come in person due to some matters, but he sent a letter through someone else."

Ivy pushed the unopened letter to Ethan. The person who delivered the letter walked in a hurry, which gave her a vague feeling of foreboding.

Ethan opened the envelope and read its contents.

In the letter, the noble son of Chun Ai affectionately called him Lao Sen and spoke highly of the magic scrolls he drew. They witnessed the power of the three-in-one ice arrows at sea, and used these ice arrow scrolls to quell the sea monster disaster in the coastal cities after returning to their hometown. They have already sent an invitation to the Empire's Astrology Guild, hoping to recruit some magicians who are good at space magic to build a transmission node to Hearth Bay for them. At that time, they can start further cooperation.

It was not easy to send this letter to the store, so the nobleman entrusted his most trusted subordinate to go to the empire and use teleportation magic to deliver the letter to Hearth Bay.

The young master expressed his apologies because the letter did not bring good news to them.

When he saw the next paragraph, Ethan was also stunned.

Henry VI, one of the greatest knights in the history of the empire, had recently died of illness.

"What did the letter say?"

Ivy noticed the change in Ethan's expression and asked anxiously.

"It says that His Majesty Henry has passed away."

The apartment fell into silence. After a long while, Bi'an finally said in a lost voice, "You must be kidding, right?"

Although the corruption of the empire was deeply rooted, Henry VI was her guide after all and the person she used to regard as a role model.

"It was around the night when the news of your death came through. The authenticity of the news could not be confirmed."

However, Ethan tended to believe that the contents of the letter were true. He found it hard to believe that someone would be so bored as to go through so much trouble just to convey a false message.

However, the news of His Majesty Henry's death has not yet spread throughout the empire, which means that someone has blocked the news.

The real purpose of the letter was not just to convey a message, but to warn him.

There exists a group of parasites in the empire who have acquired unimaginable power and wealth.

It was these parasites who revealed the news of Henry VI's death to them. In fact, they also revealed the news to other people, including the enemies of the empire.

He also heard the news that the Knight Commander had unfortunately died while fighting against the evil god's followers.

Perhaps it won’t be long before the enemy’s troops arrive in force.

The young master expressed his regret in the letter. Although he argued with reason, the decision-makers seemed to believe that the empire was doomed, and he was put under house arrest because of his stance.

The letter was written in the hope of establishing good relations with Lao Sen. This was not a dialogue between countries, but he hoped to invite Lao Sen to live in the Western Continent in his personal capacity, where he would be treated as a guest of honor.

"It's the Lofik Group."

The identity of the "worms" was not difficult to determine. They had long expressed their desire for war and had made the same invitation to him.

Go live in the Western Continent.

After the news of the Knight Commander's death spread, the death of Henry VI would undoubtedly be the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The war is about to begin.
