Chapter 315: Chapter 203: Completing the Cloak of Destruction Magic and the rise of Heavy Infantry!_1

Ivita asked Milani for a drop of her blood, then he muttered a spell towards the magic cloak. Suddenly, the Cloak of Destruction floated up from the chair, like a fish swimming in mid-air.

Pan God raised his eyebrows, thoughtful. He glanced at Milani sitting next to him. If he wasn’t mistaken, this witch had said that she only taught this magic to Ivita a little over a month ago.

Given that Ivita had learned this magic because the curse from the Black Rose Fairy required a specific blood type, he had actually only needed less than a month to learn it.

What a terrifying magical talent.

Pan God realized that Ivita was not quite aware of his own magical talent.

Indeed, he was the holder of the Conference Ring.

The magic cloak began to sway in the air, then the books on the shelves around them started flipping their pages by themselves.

Ivita was shocked, he looked at Pan God, wasn’t it said that it was just a problem of lacking Milani’s blood?

Could it be, that I still haven’t thoroughly studied this magic?

Feeling anxious, Ivita made a hand seal towards the Cloak of Destruction and recited the final spell.

The Cloak of Destruction was enveloped in a mysterious silver glow, as if it was rustling in the wind. The light near it dimmed a little, and a shadow surrounded the cloak.

But this shadow was not normal.

Becaue the shadow was not caused by the wall blocking sunlight but because when sunlight hit the cloak, it was destroyed, resulting in a shadow.

Then, the cloak suddenly spun six times in mid-air on the spot, and then automatically flew onto Ivita’s back, like automatically dressing him.

"Does it look like a success?" Ivita was a little unsure, but he could feel the connection between him and the cloak. He could vaguely sense the simple emotions coming from the cloak, and vice versa.

Milani raised her right hand, a ball of water appeared in her palm. "I’ll give it a try."

Before she could even react, the Cloak of Destruction on Ivita attacked her Water Magic. The water cannon spell in her hand, which could cause lethal damage if it hit someone, was deflected by the movement of the cloak.

It was only then that Milani truly believed, Ivita had indeed learned a magic that was considered extremely difficult for a wizard apprentice in such a short time.

Milani suddenly reached out her left hand to Ivita, quickly muttering a terrible curse, multiple Explosive Curses hit Ivita.

The cloak instantly returned to its original position, even actively wrapping up Ivita’s body. The dust dispersed, and Ivita was unscathed under the multiple Explosive Curses cast by a formal wizard.

Pan God clapped then. "Impressive, this is a truly unique curse created by the Black Rose Fairy."

"But what’s even more impressive is that you managed to learn it in such a short time."

"With this cloak, even under the radiance of the Destructive Celestial Sphere, you could survive for few more minutes."

Milani also looked at Ivita with envy and admiration, "So you really did learn it."

"I previously doubted if you truly understood the spell. Now seeing you perform it successfully, I realize I was wrong."

Milani said, "The Cloak of Destruction can destroy the light that gets close to you, and it can cause a certain amount of damage to people who get close to you."

At this point, Ivita urged the Cloak of Destruction with all his might, which seemed to billow in the wind nonstop.

Following this, Ivita saw that the sunlight near him was actually destroyed.

As a result, a black sphere formed within a half-meter radius centered on him.

He moved, and the black sphere moved with him.

At that moment, the door to the study was opened.

Ivita made a thought, the dark sphere in the room immediately disappeared, the Cloak of Destruction automatically left Ivita’s shoulders, and then floated to a table nearby.

Ivita looked at his cloak, so both his mirror and cloak were like his pets.

Alysia entered, first curtseying, then said to Ivita, "My lady, lunch is ready. It awaits you and your guests’ approval."

"Thank you, Alysia." Ivita nodded her head, and said to Pan God and Milani, "Let’s go eat."

...

The time taken to construct the iron horse carriage exceeded Ivita and the others’ expectations by far.

The forging process for the iron horse carriage incredibly took three days. However, the crisis at the witch’s tomb didn’t seem to be going anywhere fast.

A lot of wizards, drawn by the elemental flower and hindered by the distance, hadn’t arrived yet. They estimated in the coming weeks, ill-intended dark beings would rush towards the tomb.

On the morning of their third day of waiting, Ivita received a war report from Ambros City.

The hitherto retreating armies of Ambros City had finally defeated a mixed force of roughly four thousand cavalry and infantry led by Taketick five days ago at a place known as Black Horse Town.

Although it was a relatively small victory, it greatly encouraged the forces of the Ambros City council.

The next day, the infantry legions from the Mountain Thirteen States Confederation dealt a significant blow to the cavalry troops from the Potzstan Kingdom.

This act was even more shocking than the previous battlefield victory.

Because up until now, whether it’s Ambros or other countries in the Magic Black Forest, it was assumed that infantry troops were accompaniments to the cavalry, with knights being the main force in the army.

It wasn’t that the Mountain Thirteen States didn’t want to have their own cavalry troops, they were just too poor and lacked rare and lavish resources, which were poured into the warrior profession instead.

But this fight was a complete shocker.

A heavily disciplined mercenary battalion of infantry was able to win against a mixed legion from a kingdom with knights at its core!

This news spread throughout the Magic Black Forest like a whirlwind.

According to the war report, kings across countries started to actively apply to hire the troops of the Mountain Thirteen States.

At the breakfast table in the castle, Ivita finished reading the report and handed it to the others.

Milani was the most surprised. "A knight army lost to a warrior army."

"Unbelievable. Is an era change in progress?"

Ivita finished the egg on her fork, wiped her mouth with a napkin and then said, "Unlikely."

"A single setback does not make a trend."

"Moreover, it seems that only the Mountain Thirteen States can assemble an infantry legion of that scale in this world."

"But let those important figures worry about that. Our current goal is the witch’s tomb, and our iron horse carriage has been completed today."

The old witch said, "I’ve already used blood magic on the iron horse carriage. Once we bestow some additional magic onto the carriage, we can head to the witch’s tomb."

At the table, everyone’s eyes sparkled. Wasn’t this what they had all come together for?

Ivita told the knight Griffin and the Black Wolf, "You all stay and guard the territory to prevent us from being attacked while we’re at the tomb. I will leave the Water Elemental Soldiers patrolling here as well."

Water Elementals are naturally suited for defensive battles, not for encounters.

Transporting Water Dragon Soldiers away from their stationed location requires her to use her water attribute magic power.

Of course, the Water Dragon Soldier who had absorbed the Gladiator’s power would be taken along. Given its combat capability, it would be worth her to take it along.

Suddenly, everyone’s goblets at the table began to shake.

Ivita sensed the vibrations coming from the ground, looked out the window, and said, "Someone appears to be attacking the tomb’s defense spell, though the noise seems somewhat excessive. Ambros really is a treasure trove of capable people. They remain unseen in plain times and not even wars can force them out."

"Now that the elemental flower has blossomed, they’ve all appeared."

Pan took a sip of his sheep’s milk tea and then said, "Incentives move people."
