It was at that moment.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

They heard some noises.

It was the sound of some things hitting each other and breaking.

�Shit!�

Cale turned his head and started to frown.

He looked toward the open main entrance of the Alchemists� Bell Tower.

He could see a shocked Tasha, the Dark Elves, and Choi Han standing there.

There were other people as well.

There were black mages who were tied up, alchemists who had not become black mages, and even people who were responsible for odd tasks within the Alchemist Bell Tower.

Finally, there were the people who were kidnapped and brought into the Empire as slaves.

He could see all of them.

�Uuuuuuuugh.�

�Ugh!�

They all had black eyes and were flailing around in an attempt to get outside the Bell Tower even as the Dark Elves tried to hold them back.

Some of them didn�t even care about their arms being twisted oddly from the Dark Elves holding them back.

They wanted to get out and head toward Tower Master Bernard.

They would do anything to get to him.

��This! Those people look like they are being controlled as well!�

Cale could hear an anxious Rex�s voice.

He also heard Bernard�s voice at the same time.

�However, there is a way to defeat the smaller side with the strong individuals.�

They could see Bernard again as the explosion subsided and the dust cloud dispersed.

Bernard was smiling toward Cale. It was a beautiful smile that seemed to come right out of a painting. JrNovels.com
