"Can you take us with you, Master Angele?" Julie begged as she grabbed ahold of her brother and sister's hands.

"Sorry,"-Angele shook his head slightly-"I can't adopt you."

He knew that Cruise had many political enemies when he was alive. As a friend, he had wanted to help the man's children, but without the intention of adopting and treating them as his own.

He also knew that it was not the first time Julie tried asking for a wizard to adopt them; however, no one wanted to become the target of Cruise's political enemies. The best way to help the three children was to keep them out of this fight. People wouldn't care as long as they were mortals.

Angele sighed. "Go talk to Barry and study in school. You'll find a good job in the city after you have graduated."

After saying that, he left.

Angele would not become the department head after the death of Cruise. The headquarter would send someone else to replace Cruise, and Angele could keep doing his job as an assistant.

He declined all the party invitations from his colleagues and returned to the mansion by the Ness River.

Angele had decided to stay in the mansion and focus on practicing the Molten Core River.

The required runes and magic circles for the fourth stage were extremely hard, and he was still having trouble understanding them.

He had wanted to take his time to study the magic circles, explore the Nightmare Realm, and spend more time with Freia.

　　*******************************

Air transportation city, by the edge of the Abyss Canyon.

Under the dim sunlight, the Abyss Canyon looked like a huge fissure in the land, with chilling air breathing out from the darkness.

The orange light from the setting sun illuminated the ground, and the ladder-shaped clouds were painted in gold.

*Crack*

A white leather boot stepped on a small rock, flattening it.

It was a woman with a huge chest and a charming face. She was wearing a long tight robe, and her face held a cold expression.

Her skin was clean, her face pretty, and her right ear was long and white, covered with grey fur.

The woman glanced around the area.

"This the last place that I detected Terry's vital signs," she muttered.

Two men in white robes were behind the woman.

One of the men crouched and touched the ground to check the dust.

"The death wave that ended a while ago already erased all the living beings from the area and we won't be able to locate the murderer." His brow furrowed. "Master Erwin, I think we're just wasting time, we should find Master Julian and..."

"Are you questioning my decision?"

The woman named Erwin turned around and glared at the man.

"Yeah." The man stood up and responded in a cold tone, "Master, you're just wasting your time."

*BOOM*

The male wizard's head exploded like a watermelon, his brain, mixed with the shattered bones, splashed on the ground.

Erwin lowered her right hand calmly.

"It has been 500 years since someone last questioned my decision..." She turned her head around and stared into the abyss again.
