Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 867 Sinner

While Thor cursed inwardly but outwardly raised the banner of fighting against the Black Tide monsters with a controversial expression, Flim also noticed the strangeness on the coast.

To conserve energy, he hadn't been serious, instead playing around with Alfonso's attacks and restraining him to prevent his escape.

However, when the giant mermaid mutant appeared on the beach, even though they were some distance from the shore, Frim noticed the anomaly immediately.

However, Alfonso was just as desperate as he was to stop Flim, which made it take him a little time to trap Alfonso.

However, after dealing with Alfonso, Flim did not kill him immediately, nor did he forcibly search his consciousness. Instead, he took the immobilized Alfonso to the beach.

Although his main body was about to leave Neflet, Frim wasn't truly indifferent to the Black Tide's attack.

It was for this reason that he semi-forced the wizard Airo to take his place in maintaining the defensive magic array along the entire southeast coast, and had Stuart impersonate Airo as the rearguard.

However, when Frim arrived at the high ground where he could see the coast, he saw Stuart using the wind as a knife to cleave the hundred-meter-tall mermaid mutant in two.

Flim frowned immediately; with his keen eyesight, he could tell that something was wrong with the mermaid mutant.

The mermaid mutant is a special case; even Flem did not detect its internal anomalies when it was at a distance.

By the time he saw the mermaid mutant, Stuart had already delivered the final blow.

Although Alfonso was seriously injured and was enveloped in a ball of light, he was still conscious and naturally saw what was happening on the beach.

"What... what's going on?" Everything that happened at the beach was completely outside of Alfonso's plan.

Although he spent ten years determined to free Pearl so she could live as a true mermaid princess, he would never do anything to harm the continent of Neflet.

This is his home, the place he has protected and fought for for a hundred years.

If Pearl hadn't been enslaved and oppressed here, with no hope in sight, he wouldn't have created this contamination disease to isolate the atavistic mermaid.

Seeing the mutated mermaid turn into a giant pollutant, Alfonso felt a pang of guilt.

But soon, his guilt turned into self-blame and pain.

What happened next was completely unexpected by the two of them.

When he saw the giant mermaid mutant explode violently, Frim knew that things were going in the direction he least wanted to see.

Having led the Tribunal in its fight against the Kuroshio Current for so many years, he has also witnessed the Kuroshio monsters flowing back to the coastline.

But at that time, the Red Sea Tree had not yet been planted, and the pollution on the shore was difficult to clean up. Therefore, after each Kuroshio Current receded, they had to do a long cleanup to prevent the Kuroshio monsters that were about to recede from being attracted by the excessive Kuroshio pollution on the shore.

Since the Red Sea Trees were planted on a large scale along the southeast coast, there have been virtually no instances of Black Tide monsters surging back. It's estimated that the low-level wizards in the Tribunal have almost forgotten about it by now.

But Frim, as the Lord of the Court, would not forget.

He looked at Alfonso inside the orb of light and demanded, "Are you trying to destroy Nefarian?"

Alfonso's face was filled with extreme fear and confusion.

He was not afraid to fight the Black Tide monsters head-on, even if there were a hundred times more Black Tide monsters than himself.

He wasn't even afraid of dying on the spot.

But he feared that all of this was because he had let Pearl go.

He couldn't bear the outcome.

Flim couldn't accept the outcome either, but he could only calm himself down.

The warm yellow ball of light kicked Alfonso out of the room, then transformed into a human form and stepped on Alfonso's face, forcing him to lie face down on the ground with his head facing the sea.

"The Little Mermaid can control mermaids with her mental power, didn't you know that? I destroyed her spiritual body beforehand, but you released this monster again. Although I don't know how you repaired her spiritual body, I know very well that all of this is your fault!"

Alfonso desperately wanted to tell Frim that he had no way to cure the Pearl Spirit.

But his whole body was trembling, every muscle was out of his control, and he couldn't speak at all.

Flim let out a long sigh, then bent down to look at Alfonso, whom he was stepping on.

"Remember this: if the Red Sea Tree is destroyed, you will be a sinner of the Tribunal; if the Black Tide reaches the shore, you will be a sinner of Neflet; if my journey, which was halted because of you, ultimately leads to Gorsar angering the Eye of the Abyss, you will be a sinner of the entire wizarding world!"

Alfonso's eyes widened, and a single tear suddenly slid down his cheek, falling to the ground and disappearing.

Flim saw Alfonso shed tears, but he was not moved in the slightest.

He was only angry.

They had already reached the edge of Neflet and were about to head to Stath to deal with Gorsa, who was advancing to the fourth rank.

Unexpectedly, they failed at the last moment.

"Was I too arrogant? Did I assume Alfonso was completely under my control?"

A flicker of wavering appeared in Fleim's anger.

But he quickly suppressed this wavering in his heart and put it out of his mind.

As the head of the tribunal, he could not waver in the slightest.

Everything he did was right and has been proven correct by the future.

Looking at Airo appearing in the distance, and Thor who had instigated the fight against the Black Tide monsters, Frim slowly closed his eyes.

Having just suppressed Alfonso, the power of this consciousness split was already minimal, and even if it went to the battlefield now, its effectiveness would be less than that of a third-tier wizard.

It's better to focus on getting the main consciousness back as quickly as possible.

The losses can be mitigated as long as he can return to the coast before the Red Sea Trees are severely damaged.

A moment later, Flim opened his eyes again, released Alfonso with his foot, and said, "I originally intended to extract your soul, making you a lost soul forever trapped in the Lost Corridor. But considering the hundreds of years you have served the Tribunal, I will give you a chance to die with dignity."

……

Thor stood on the waves, his body rising and falling with the seawater. He was observing the wizards of the area taking turns going into the sea to resist the Kuroshio monster fish that was constantly approaching the Red Sea Tree.

Thor, who had originally taken on the responsibility of commanding the defense, was also going to go to sea, but he soon discovered that most wizards were not good at sustaining combat.

In the past, people fought on the sea. Although they would be splashed in the face by the huge waves brought up by the Kuroshio Current, it was not as painful as it is now, where they are constantly fighting in seawater with excessive pollution.

Not only is the power of witchcraft difficult to unleash, but it is also easily corrupted. Several wizards, while fighting the Black Tide monsters, nearly mutated and almost ran to the enemy camp.

Thor quickly realized that the real reason why this battle was so difficult was the pollution.

He made a decision: he would simply stop going to sea and hand over the command duties to others.

He stood in the center of the battlefield, and whenever a wizard was replaced due to excessive pollution, he would immediately rush to Thor and ask him to treat them.

Thor never expected that he, who was originally invited to treat the black tide pollution on the mermaids, would end up going back to his old profession and treating the wizards for black tide pollution!
