"Sign, I sign!"
At this mont, Hera had no other choice. He imdiately signed his na on the unequal treaty and stamped it with the Mosla Empire Royal Family's official seal.
"Hmm, thank you for your cooperation." Zhang nglong waved his hand and said, "All Curses End!"
As the spell was chanted, a massive energy field appeared around Zhang nglong, enveloping the entire sky over the Mosla Empire, and almost at the sa ti, all the power of the forbidden curses vanished from the sky.
"All Curses End? Domain Magic?" The two gazed at the sky, eyes dull and lifeless.
Domain Magic is a very special kind of magic. Since the end of the Cang Yuan Era, they had never heard of its existence. Unexpectedly, today, they had the chance to witness it. Such magical gift and cultivation—they had to admit their defeat today was not without reason.
"Thank you for your cooperation," Zhang nglong said, "I hope you can fulfill all compensations within three days."
"Three days?" Hera was stunned. He hadn't seen any ti constraint on the covenant!
He still had a glimr of hope; Zhang nglong was clearly an outsider. As long as they could stall until he left, they could tear up the agreent as they pleased. Even if others found out, no one would dare to utter half a word.
"Look here," Zhang nglong pointed to the bottom line of the agreent, which looked like ellipses, and then took out a magnifying glass.
Surprisingly, a few words were written in very fine strokes.
"The ultimate interpretive power of this agreent belongs to the Hertz Family."
"By signing the agreent, you've agreed that the interpretive power belongs to the Hertz Family, so everything we say counts."
"What a sneaky and despicable thing!" Hera gritted his teeth as he looked at Zhang nglong but was powerless.
Even with the Royal Family's capability, fulfilling all the agreent's terms within three days was extrely difficult.
"Alright, then we'll et again in three days!"
Zhang nglong swaggered off with the Raditz siblings, leaving Hera and the two Grand Emperors staring at the devastated palace.
...
News spread across the Mosla Empire like wildfire!
mbers of the Hertz Family went to the palace to demand compensation, even forcing out the two Grand Emperors who had been feigning death and secluded themselves. The most impressive part is, even under such circumstances, they still conceded, and even the two Grand Emperors with one foot into the realm of Interdiate Great Magicians couldn't stop the Hertz Family!
"Couldn't believe the Royal Family had sothing up their sleeve," the President of the Magicians' Association observed the news. Lucky for him, he hadn't been overly aggressive when dealing with the Royal Family; otherwise, it would have been the association facing trouble!
Although the Magicians' Association is formidable, they certainly couldn't station an Interdiate Great Magician in the Mosla Empire.
What really surprised him was that even after all the cards had been exposed, the royal apology followed, ending the ordeal. What other surprises does this young man hold that he was unaware of?
That afternoon, the threshold at the Hertz Family, just freshly piled, was practically trampled to pieces by family representatives from all over the country.
They didn't know Zhang nglong was rely a guest at the Hertz Family for a while; even if they did, so what? It's still a resource of the Hertz Family.
One thing is clear: from now on, within this Mosla Empire, the Hertz Family's status and influence might even surpass that of the Royal Family and the Magicians' Association.
If not now, when is the ti to curry favor? If they're even a step too late, they won't even have the chance to kiss up.
The entire Hertz Family was all smiles, completely unlike a place whose estate had just been razed to the ground.
...
Three days later, the Royal compensation arrived; they adhered strictly to the Hertz Family's demands, not daring to fall short in any asure.
Simultaneously, they honored their promise, apologizing to the Hertz Family in front of the entire Mosla Empire's audience.
In the subsequent years, the Royal Family lived almost as if they had their tails between their legs, fearing even approaching within two streets of the Hertz Family, lest they unintentionally provoked them again.
Zhang nglong stayed at the Hertz Family for years.
At the Hertz Family, he was treated as an esteed guest, and everyone treated him as if he were the Clan Leader when they saw him.
Besides guiding Raditz in magic cultivation, he spent his days eating, drinking, and playing, hardly doing any cultivation himself, causing Raditz to wonder how he mastered those 500 forbidden spells—could he have brought them from the womb?
But soon, Raditz discovered his magic cultivation progressed at a breathtaking pace.
In just a few short years, he advanced from a magician to a mage, and even as a Junior Mage, he could spar with his father, a Senior Mage.
Born a Fire Mage, Zhang nglong handed him all the skill books for "Pyromancer" and "Fire Poison Mage" from Adventure Island and taught him how to learn them. Now, even a casual magic was at least interdiate level, and even high-level fire magic ca to him effortlessly.
Even his mage's robe had been replaced with one adorned with twelve red stars of a Mage's robe!
However, such leisurely days quickly slipped away. One night, with a sound of thunder echoing across the Imperial City of the Mosla Empire, it was announced that the Great Magician Ainos's inheritance was about to open!
Months ago, the Royal Family of the Mosla Empire had already been overcrowded, with accommodation prices surging repeatedly; anyone who owned a hotel had made a fortune.
Not only the Mosla Empire, but several nearby magical empires faced the sa situation.
A rough estimate suggested that this ti, millions of magicians were eager to try and challenge the inheritance. Just in terms of Great Magicians, there were thousands, with countless mages and magicians.
This ti, the Hertz Family sent only Raditz to go, placing great expectations on this action.
Though years have passed, nobody has ever inherited Ainos's legacy, but they feel this opening of the Land of Inheritance might be the last one!
...
The Land of Inheritance is located in a valley, where normally, the area is enveloped by an imnse Thunder and Lightning power. But having just experienced a change in magnetic fields, this area is about to welco a brief period of peace.
The valley already crowded with people from surrounding areas, filled with magicians—so were solo, others in groups of three or five, and there were those from major powers like princes from various empires, still basking in admiration from many, enjoying everything that their innate resources granted them.
Of course, Zhang nglong also noticed the Mosla Empire's Royal Family, which turned dispirited upon seeing them, the lingering power of Zhang nglong and the Hertz Family still severely affecting them.
"Prince Hera, I heard your Mosla Empire's Royal Family was recently disciplined by a family? That's too shaful!" At this mont, a young man in luxurious clothing approached Hera. He was also a prince from a kingdom near the Land of Inheritance, more powerful than the Mosla Empire.
"Shall I help you deal with them this ti?" the young man laughed.
Hera showed a disdainful expression towards the young man, yet suddenly thought of sothing.
"If Prince Siming can help my Mosla Empire Royal Family vent so anger, then from now on, I will follow Prince Siming's lead!"
