Before meeting Lark Marcus, they believed that pinnacle-grade spells were exclusive only to dragons.
The fact that something that powerful had been cast to protect a town sounded preposterous.
“And Mikael heard it from Lark Marcus himself,” said King Alvis. “Evander Alaester. A magician who once lived during the Age of Magic. One of the strongest magicians in the history of mankind. Lark Marcus himself admitted that the soul of that magician is currently inhabiting the body of Duke Drakus’ second son.”
The parasitized human locked in the cell started banging on the iron bars. Its flesh was torn, its bone cracked, but it did not stop.
“If it’s him, it should be possible for us to find a way to turn those people back to normal,” said King Alvis. He looked at the parasitized human with pity. “Ropianna, if he is indeed that legendary magician, I will abdicate the throne. Although four years have yet to pass, I shall name him the next ruler of this kingdom. The Gods said so, didn’t they? It’s the only way for our nation to survive.”
The parasitized human started banging its head against the wall. Unable to bear to look at him any further, Lady Ropianna cast a restriction spell and bound the parasitized human by a wind chain.
“Tonight, I shall depart for Blackstone Town.”
The royal court magicians looked at General Carlos. To their surprise, the retired general did not seem against the decision of His Majesty. It seemed that he already knew of this plan.
“Even if I have to kneel, I shall ask that magician to help this kingdom.”
AFTERWORD
First of all, I would like to thank everyone for reading this far into the novel. I started writing out of boredom a couple of years ago. Who would have known that people would actually read and buy my stories? I’m currently at a point in my life wherein I’m contemplating on going full-time as an author. It’s a hard decision, since I’ll be leaving my career as a medical doctor behind in exchange for this one. Being a doctor is extremely draining. I won’t go into details, but I’ve realized that working at the hospital has been extremely taxing on my body.
Well, enough of the rant. (Haha! Seriously. Why am I writing this in an afterword?)
There’s only a couple of volumes left before Legend of the Arch Magus ends. Two episodes of the webcomic for the novel have already been completed. I’ll start posting them once I’ve had enough buffer episodes. Unfortunately, it’ll be posted monthly. The studio working on the webcomic is small, and with the limited manpower and budget, it’s the best we could do as of this moment. Who knows – when it becomes popular someday (hopefully), maybe we could hire more people to make it a bi-monthly release?
The completed episodes for the webcomic are currently being posted on my patreon page. You can also read advance chapters of the next book there.
