Death Wizard Diary.

Chapter 896 What You've Been Looking For Has Always Been Here

Claire set off, carrying the various tools Thor had given her, and secretly headed towards the Principality of Kema. Thor and Byron, who remained behind, would help Claire conceal her absence.

The two are currently very busy, on the one hand trying to quickly mine the skeletal monsters in the chaotic rifts, and on the other hand sending people to search for possible eye of the storm.

Meanwhile, Thor also served as an information relay station, constantly relaying information to Char and the others.

Time passed little by little.

When Klee successfully reunited with Char and entered the Principality of Kema under a different identity, someone approached the Black Flame Emperor Airo, who had already returned to the capital, on the distant continent of Neflet.

Airo was sitting in the palace at that moment.

His wife had just left to help their 46th child learn to read, which should have been a heartwarming scene, but Airo still had a frown on his face.

When he heard the guards come to report that a wizard from the Tribunal had come to see him, he still got up with a frown.

Did they bring any news from Stuart?

The guard immediately replied, "Your Majesty, it has nothing to do with Lord Stuart. The one who has come is a wizard I have never seen before."

Emperor Airo's bodyguards are also first-tier wizards. Ordinary people, let alone serving Airo, will suffer various physical problems and even death due to the effects of magical radiation from him if they are near him for too long.

Upon hearing this, Airo lost all interest in meeting the envoy from the Tribunal.

He recently had another argument with Frim. It was just an argument, without any real conflict or confrontation. Frim had lost his most trusted minister, the successor he had chosen for himself and for Black Flame, so Frim wasn't as assertive in his presence as before.

Although that guy slightly backed down in terms of momentum, there was no room for reversal in his decision. This wasn't the first time Airo had clashed with Flem on both ideas and actions.

Because they both wanted to protect their homeland and their people, Airo and Flem came together and jointly created the Tribunal.

However, Ailo, who was always busy with other matters, spent most of his time dealing with internal affairs of the continent. When he came to his senses one day, he found that the Tribunal's influence had extended to the other two continents, and there had even been several cross-continental pursuit incidents. As a result, their relationship with the Stargate Council was extremely tense.

Airo disapproved of the Stargate Council's approach. Regardless of whether the Stargate was safe or not, ultimately only a handful of top-tier wizards could rely on it to leave.

As for going outside to fetch reinforcements, Airo scoffed at the idea.

But gradually, Airo found that he could no longer understand Flim's way of doing things.

The reasons given for Flim's rulings became increasingly unclear.

It could be that one morning, Flim said someone was a sinner in the wizarding world and had to be eliminated.

This even included several third-tier wizards. The most recent one, of course, was the renowned Gorsa.

Airo once told himself that he had long since stopped being involved in the core affairs of the Tribunal, so he didn't know if Frim had any ulterior motives. But when Frim tried to take action against Gorsa time and time again, and even after the Glorious Family came to demonstrate, when he went from open to covert schemes against Gorsa, Airo really couldn't understand it.

Why would Gorza risk damaging the Tribunal's resources by leaving Neflet during the Black Tide era?

In the end, something unexpected happened. He was unable to leave Neflet at all. The Red Sea Tree was destroyed, and even Airo's confidants perished in the Black Tide attack, which was not originally a large-scale attack.

Despite paying such a high price, Frim still refuses to tell Elo what his purpose was in doing all this!

This gradually made Ai Luo feel uneasy amidst her confusion.

As Stuart's soul remains undiscovered, this unease grows ever stronger.

"Why haven't we heard from Stuart? He clearly disappeared before everyone's eyes. Even if he was only a third-tier wizard, his mental strength and soul were extremely powerful. How could he have been destroyed in one blow by a merman mutant, without even a trace of his soul remaining?"

Feeling anxious, Airo waved his hand and said, "If there's anything, let them go and discuss it with the ministers."

The guard immediately replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

However, the guard returned shortly after leaving, looking conflicted.

"Your Majesty, they say... that it's Lord Frim's request, and they need Your Majesty's cooperation."

After saying that, the guard lowered his head.

Even their emperor often had to compromise when faced with a tough tribunal.

Airo snorted coldly; he wouldn't compromise today!

But before Ailo could send the guards away again, a figure had already stepped into the garden in front of the bedchamber.

Although Airo was in the room, he immediately noticed the intruder.

Now even a wizard from the Tribunal dares to disregard his authority like this?

"Then send a few corpses back to them, so that Frim's men can sober up."

Thinking this, Airo narrowed his eyes, and his entire body instantly transformed into a ball of black flame, disappearing from the room.

The next second, he appeared at the garden gate and lifted up a first-tier wizard who was peeking out from the gate.

Black flames erupted from the wizard's body, and the captured wizard immediately let out a scream.

Black Flame is the signature magic of Airo and the origin of the name of the entire Black Flame Empire.

Airo could burn this ignorant first-tier wizard to ashes in an instant with his black flames, but what deterrent effect would burning him to ashes have?

Why not steam him into a dried corpse little by little, sprinkle some spices on him, and then put him in bread and send him back?

It will surely leave a deep impression on those wizards in the tribunal.

The black flames, like Airo's limbs, were manipulated at will by him, and could quickly evaporate all the moisture from the wizard's body.

Just then, another witch standing outside the garden gate raised both arms to indicate that she was harmless.

"Your Majesty, after you have burned this reckless fellow to ashes, may I report a few things to you? I assure you it won't delay your lunch."

Lydia was a little nervous, but in order to achieve her goal, she gritted her teeth and spoke to the obviously angry Emperor Elo.

Elo glanced at Lia, who immediately put her hands together in a pleading manner, lowering her posture considerably.

This respectful attitude lessened the nameless anger in Airo's heart, so he decided not to torture the reckless wizard in his hands, but to burn him to ashes and scatter them as fertilizer in the garden.

After the flames died down, he clapped his hands and said in a still unfriendly tone, "What do you want to say? I'll only give you three chances."

Three sentences?

Leah's mouth tasted bitter.

Her mind raced. She knew that he was supposed to give her three sentences, but if the first sentence didn't satisfy His Majesty Elo, she might not have the chance to say the second.

It seems that some things cannot be kept secret; we should wait for the right opportunity to discuss them.

"Your Majesty Elo," Lydia said in a low voice, "what you're looking for has always been here."
