Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 468: Chapter 189: Subduing the Crystal Witch

Link slowly raised his hands, gradually forming layers of frost between his fingers.

The surrounding temperature plummeted, even the air itself began to solidify. He murmured ancient spells, each syllable filled with destructive power.

Then, he suddenly thrust his hands forward, unleashing a powerful ice storm from his palms, roaring towards the wizards like an ice dragon.

The wizards hurried to cast defense magic, yet their powers appeared pale and powerless before Link’s ice storm.

Where the ice dragon swept across, everything froze—trees, rocks, even the magic shields of the wizards were instantly sealed in ice.

The wizards frantically discovered their bodies beginning to ice up, their movements slowing down, ultimately becoming fully frozen into ice sculptures.

Link stood amidst this frozen world with no pity in his eyes.

He knew that in this survival-of-the-fittest world, only the strong survived.

For the glory of Sea Cape Tower, he was willing to be that strong one.

He turned to Meisha and the wizard apprentices, his voice sounding particularly harsh in the frigid air, "Let’s go in."

Meisha silently nodded.

Link’s cruelty, though terrifying, was for their mutual benefit.

Everyone followed Link into the ruins, leaving behind a desolate scene ravaged by ice power.

...

Inside the ruins at this moment.

David and Sten had already slain the rock puppets, continuing towards the passage that had appeared earlier.

In the depths of the ruins, David and Sten discovered a hidden chamber.

The chamber door was made from an unknown material, covered in ancient runes and patterns, exuding a mysterious aura.

David again began to decipher the array on the door.

Although countless years had passed, the array on the door remained intact.

This made David realize that behind the door likely lay a powerful source of magic power supporting this strong ruin.

But then, suddenly, David raised his head, his eyes looking towards the passage outside.

In an instant, a terrifying ice power suddenly swept over, rushing at the two of them.

Seeing this, Sten directly stood in front, shattering the ice power with a punch.

Then, he looked towards the passage and saw Link and the others coming in.

"The wizards from Lonely Whale Market?"

"Leave, Sea Cape Tower is taking over here," Link said directly.

He didn’t know that Edmund was currently being sealed by David.

David squinted his eyes, realizing this too.

These Sea Cape Tower wizards saw them, yet only requested them to leave?

It seemed Edmund’s actions were entirely his own will, not Sea Cape Tower’s intent.

Of course, even knowing this, he wouldn’t leave.

"Sorry, I was here first," David said mildly.

Link’s face instantly darkened; if not for sensing that the wizard before him was unusual, he would have acted long ago.

Now that the wizards from Lonely Whale Market were being unreasonable, they couldn’t blame him!

"You will regret your decision, pathetic weak wizard!"

Crack crack—

The next moment, he activated the ice power within.

David was stunned to see this, not expecting the wizard in front of him to be an Ice Mage!

"If you don’t leave, then die!" Link suddenly acted.

The powerful ice power transformed into countless ice cones, sweeping directly towards David and Sten!

Seeing this, David snorted coldly, the ice element mark within him began to violently tremble, a pure and powerful ice power surged out from his body.

This ice power was completely different from Link’s. It was more pure, containing a force akin to the essence of ice.

Though Link’s ice power was strong, before David’s ice element mark, it appeared somewhat pale and weak.

The ice element mark controlled the ice power, suddenly transforming into an ice domain.

Link was shocked to find that he had lost control over the ice power!

"How is this possible?!"

"Why can’t I control the ice power anymore?"

Link’s face was filled with shock and disbelief.

His eyes widened, his pupils reflecting David’s mighty ice domain.

Yet his ice cones, when nearing the domain, seemed to be guided by an invisible force, straying from their original path, falling powerless.

His heartbeat nearly stopped, breathing became rapid, he felt a chilling sensation shoot through his spine to the top of his head—not from external cold, but from deep-seated fear and confusion.

Upon losing control over the ice power, he was like an ordinary person.

Even desperately urging his crystalized spiritual power, he couldn’t cast even one ice magic!

Link’s body slightly trembled, his lips moved as if to speak, but he found himself unable to utter a sound.

His thoughts became chaotic. He couldn’t comprehend why the opponent could seize his control over ice!

Could it be, the opponent’s strength had already surpassed an official mage?

He began to doubt himself, doubt his power, even doubt his existence.

The helplessness, the fear of power stripped away, made him feel unprecedented impotence.

His eyes were filled with confusion and unwillingness. He wanted to resist, to reclaim his power, but in the end, all turned to despair.

Crack crack sounds echoed again.

But this time, it was Link’s ice power beginning to collapse.

David’s ice power cut through Link’s defense like a sharp ice blade with ease.

Link wanted to retreat, but his feet were already frozen, unable to move.

Despair flickered in his eyes, his body began to ice up, ultimately becoming completely frozen, turning into an ice sculpture.

At this time, Meisha and the wizard apprentices were petrified with fear.

Link was killed so easily, the power of this wizard before them far exceeded their imagination.

"Master Wizard, this is a misunderstanding," Meisha said with difficulty.

But David had no intention of letting them go; terrifying ice power swept out again.

The wizard apprentices had no resistance whatsoever and were frozen, leaving only Meisha, the Crystalization Mage, still standing.

"A crystal witch?" David squinted.

Meisha’s beauty was especially striking in this tense and dangerous moment.

Her skin was like the purest alabaster snow, her eyes like two clear lakes.

Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, even in tension and fear, her movements exuded a natural grace.

David immediately showed interest, smiling, "If you submit, I can spare your life."

"Submit?"

Meisha’s brow involuntarily twitched.

But feeling the water shield continue being frozen, her face revealed hesitation.

In this situation, submission seemed the only choice.

She opened her mouth, speaking with difficulty, "Alright, I am willing to obey you."

As long as she could leave this secret realm, the wizard who killed Link and many apprentices couldn’t possibly leave easily.

But she obviously hadn’t anticipated David possessing a contract mark, binding a spiritual mark within her soul, making betrayal impossible!

"You!"

Meisha’s beautiful eyes widened.

She could feel the opponent had left a spiritual mark within her soul.

If she resisted, this mark would directly attack her soul.

Even a wizard’s soul is extremely fragile; such internal attacks are impossible to withstand!

This meant she’d completely become the opponent’s servant, unable to betray, bound entirely!

Now she finally understood the opponent’s intent. If she chose to conceal, the opponent could indeed hide the fact of having killed Link!
