Ascension of the Nephilim

Chapter 637 To Make Things Difficult

Emeros emerging from the Valley Below the Lake entrance naturally spread out all over the campus.

This was because everyone thought him to be dead, but now he has emerged, and from his appearance, he didn't even look bothered, wounded, or distressed.

In fact, he looked very calm and relaxed, as if he had been on a vacation.

His emergence to the exit quickly caused many groups to act.

At a distance was a man wearing a physician's coat.

He stood atop one of the tall buildings and watched as Emeros made his way to town, though he was three kilometers away.

The doctor's eyes watched with surprise as Emeros began to walk.

He smirked and turned around.

"It seems that our target has left the cave. This will prove quite problematic." The doctor sighed.

Next to him were several men, all wearing attires that proved they were medically trained cultivators. They all moved towards the balcony and used a telescope to see the man.

"Is that the one that Prince Magnus wants dead?" One of the 'doctors' asked.

"Magnus? Oh. You mean Crown Prince Rupert!" The doctor laughed.

The rest were not amused, and all gave their Commander a hateful stare.

"No need for the hate. I am not of the Floating Continents. You best remember it. I will not call any man the 'greatest' in this continent. Only one is greatest on this planet, and he lies beyond the clouds." The doctor laughed.

"Nevertheless, Prince Magnus has that name, for he truly is the greatest in this place."

"Whatever. We have our mission. Tail that teacher and see what he wants to do in town. I'll try to make contact with him." The doctor ordered as his figure suddenly vanished.

The rest of the doctors began to jump off the building.

Emeros was unaware of the plot. But around him, he could see many curious eyes watching him, and many still began walking towards the Valley Below the Lake entrance.

Even Senior Teacher Artes appeared, gave Emeros a hateful stare, and walked toward the cave.

Emeros only smiled at him.

"Good, like trying to find them." Emeros laughed.

Artes ignored Emeros's taunts and moved in. Many others followed.

But as for Emeros, he cared not, for he was confident of the traps and formations he had created. It was a spell that used a branch of illusory magic that did not exist within the planet and even on the Floating Continent. He even asked Alistair, who claimed that such magic was only available within the Continents Above the Sky.

It was a space-distorting spell that used a lot of dark spells. And as for the central power this spell was drawn out, he used his father's name, Pseudos.

Even Kyros and Noxus had yet to use their father's name in combat. Emeros knew the name and managed to draw out a small power, less than a percent of that name, to create a lie. And on top of this lie, he created illusions.

And with that, Emeros was confident that unless someone at the higher levels of the Commander or a Cardinal would arrive, that lie would not be uprooted and revealed.

Emeros walked onwards and headed towards the busiest parts of town, where many shops and stores were in place.

The Floating Continents was not a peaceful region. Though many ceasefire agreements and only Limited Zones of War were allowed, more than sixty percent of the population are involved or associated with war production and cultivation.

Emeros saw numerous shops for alchemy, energy conversion circles, blacksmithery, and enchantments.

Mage stores could be found at every stone-throw distance. Peddlers who were high-level captains would sell their latest kill of creatures to the mages walking in and around the street.

Emeros saw the lively town and was amazed at the grand commerce of the place. 

"This even surpasses the Lowlands of the Planesworld. So this is closer to a Midland region." Emeros praised. He saw a large alchemy shop and sensed that the ingredients he needed to resolve his student's concern were there.

But before Emeros walked in, he noticed the odd stares many of the clerks and workers at nearby shops had. Even the large alchemy shop before him secretly glanced at him using their peripheral vision as they talked to customers.

"It seems… that my notoriety has reached this place. No doubt my miracles have alerted not just the people of the one called Prince Magnus but the others in line for the throne who want me dead. I wonder how many feathers I ruffled these past days?" Emeros chuckled and walked into the shop.

"Hm? A mortal boy?" A voice was heard as soon as Emeros stepped in.

"Get away from here, you peasant! Our shop only serves nobles and freemen! Leave!" A clerk instantly approached.

"My good sir, I am a Teacher at Cloud Peak Academy. Do not look down on me because I am young or judge me by my appearance. I have come from the Valley Below the Lake and have only left the place to purchase some ingredients." Emeros answered and revealed his badge.

"Ha! A teacher?! You?! Your dark skin and your eyes that do not glow blue, green, or yellow? You are not of this Continent! You stole that! I should report you to the academy and the authorities! Get out!"

"...Go ahead and report me. By decree of Prince Alistair Fardur Powenquis, I am a citizen of this land and teacher of the school." Emeros ignored the threat, but the clerk pushed him back!

"Ha! Prince Alistair! This shop belongs to Prince Terenyos Fardur Powenquis! If you're throwing out the names of Princes, pick one higher up the hierarchy!" The clerk laughed.

Emeros sighed.

"So... it seems the others are now intentionally making things difficult for me. I guess this is expected. Fine... I'll go with 'that' route then." Emeros glanced at the shop and observed the inventory.

"I see. You're the prime source of the Temperate Fire Wielder Pill." Emeros smiled.

The clerk's face sneered.

"Yes. All mages buy from this shop! Our connections with the greatest hunter services that hunt the Quarter Lava Turtle give us this distinct opportunity! Were you planning to buy one for your... 'students'? Hahaha! Know that the likes of you will never find pills like this!" The clerk laughed.

"Alright." Emeros smiled and walked out of the shop.

He took a deep breath and shouted.

"For half the price of this shop's Temperate Fire Wielder Pill, I will sell mine at half the price, with superior effects and longer lasting effects! Behold! The Greater Temperate Fire Wielder Pill!" Emeros declared as he released a great amount of fire energy on his hand!
