The three mages had no choice. Both glared angrily at Carlisto, who was the cause of this.

Perment moved closer toward Carlisto.

"You... The one who always looked down on me and mocked me. You even framed me for a fault that I didn't commit! You and your stupid family! A poor boy with no support became a scapegoat for the accidental murder of an experiment gone wrong!" Perment hatefully glared at him.

"Of everyone here, you are at fault. For a while, Elford and Torman only acted as witnesses to my crimes; it was you who framed me. And even now, you tried to work your way through lies and deceit! You tried to put a Vow Breaker curse! If not for a counter curse that I found in the arms of a dead mage in the depths of the mine, I would not have survived today and would have been brought to shame!" Perment shouted.

Carlisto stood quietly but kept a hateful star at Perment.

"But now, you won't be able to do anything! I've just done the impossible! The deal stands, and the energy conversion circle plate will be handed to Elford. Should you scheme against me, you would never find out the secret! So go on! Try to tell your family to abduct me! Do you think I wrote the formula somewhere? It's all in here!" Perment pointed at his head.

PFFFT!! SLAP!

A spit and a slap occurred, and Carlisto stumbled back and quickly began to make his counterattack.

But at that moment, the pain repeated, and Carlisto stumbled in pain.

"Ahhhh!"

"Fool! I have yet to ask for payment. And it shall be made before I leave!" Perment laughed and walked towards Torman.

"Torman. Captain Torman! To you, I was just an ant that you had no problem in accusing. We had no quarrels. You weren't tied to Carlisto's family, but for money, you chose to put an innocent name to shame. All for your promotion... If you three can't figure out the formula for this, another member of the army, one opposed to you, will have it! And I will make sure that his rise will be your downfall! As you made me my downfall a mere business transaction, so will you fall because of my business transactions!"

PFFFT! SLAP!

Torman stumbled down from the slap. But his eyes remained wide open from the threat that Perment laid out on him. No matter what, the impossible had occurred.

"Senior Apprentice... Elford." Perment smiled as he walked over to the Baron.

"You were quite the senior. The genius who everyone loved. It would have been so disappointing to me if I had not seen through your facade what you did to me. I always saw you as a manipulative man who only appeared to be the law-abiding hero. But in secret, you sought self-gain and glorification the most. This is why I chose to sell this to you. This formation plate is a marvelous one. With a few alterations, I outwitted you. You gave me a slave with a deadly cultivation-halting disease, but the answer was simple! Like a needle, I pierced through her flesh and forced the energy and opened up her body to the power!" Perment laughed.

"I increased the energy of having your peak to have a thirty percent increase! That is my power! That is my wisdom! Can you figure it out, Senior Apprentice? Can you finish this puzzle? Surely you can! Surely you can work it out!"

Elford was quiet, but his fist was clenching so hard. He wanted to hit the man but had to contain it, knowing any actions would result in his torture.

PFFFT! SLAP!

Elford took the slap and did not allow himself to stumble. The full force of Perment was resisted. The rest hardened their face with their vitality but did not hold a firm stand and fell back to decrease the damage they would receive from a Captain's slap.

But Elford resisted it, causing more harm to his face.

He spat out blood and glanced back at Perment.

Emeros now understood Perment's hatred in his heart and how he was simply a toy tossed by the strong. To mages, the wise are those who rule. Emeros now fully understood the full worth of what he gave Perment. With the innovation of an energy conversion circle that increases the energy for level up, it would cause a chain reaction that could forever change the state of a kingdom!

"To think... these things were basic knowledge to Kyros and Noxus. This planet must be so weak compared to the Planesworld! Is this because the people here are not descendants of gods and fallen?" Emeros thought.

Elford stood there and spat more blood as he remained stalwart and had a blank expression.

"Are you done?" Elford asked.

"No. My dear, Elford. No. I'm just starting! This is the day of my prominence, remember? You cannot solve my puzzle. And when I reveal this to another family, they will soar, and I will be considered the smartest and best of your generation! It will no longer be you!" Perment laughed as he walked away.

"Who would take you seriously? Which family would listen?!" Elford challenged.

"That... my dear senior Apprentice is your time limit. It won't be glorious for me if I immediately find someone. You will have time to try and unravel my mystery! If you do, then the fame and glory will be yours! But if you don't, I will shout from the highest heights of this kingdom that the class idiot was actually smarter than the genius Elford! Your prominence will turn to shame!" Perment laughed as he walked away.

"Send the payment within the next minute to us, and it must be delivered by a weak slave and let no one follow him. We will take the money and potions from him and leave. All your forces shall remain here. My slave will activate the curse if we see anything. I will hand over the plate only after we are three kilometers away from here." Perment announced as he walked towards the carriage.

"Let's go." Emeros spoke to Serena, and she followed Emeros toward their carriage.

The group left immediately.I think you should take a look at

A minute later, a slave ran towards them in a horse and gave the carriage the money and potions to them as they left. But Emeros did not hand over the formation plate just yet.

They walked a distance and soon handed over the plate.

From afar, the men of Elford could see the signal, and the three mages saw the mark disappear. Both sides have fulfilled the vows, and the vow curse mark faded.

"I... don't understand! That boy! There was something about him!" Carlisto shouted.

"I will remember this failure, Carlisto. Mark my words. You cannot run to me for aid. So be sure that no trouble befalls you!" Elford answered.

"We still have to figure out the formation plate. That Perment seemed rather arrogant." Torman answered.

"Bah! What does that idiot know? He said he acquired a counter-curse spell through a dead mage! That formation must be based on this! I refuse to believe that he is anything more than a lucky idiot who found some formation plate that had the energy conversion circle drawn on it! He was never smart! That was your assessment, Elford!" Carlisto argued.

Soon, the slave arrived with the formation plate and presented it to them.

They removed the cover over the plate and saw the drawn energy conversion circle.

Their mouths fell down as they saw the horrifying, ugly, and full of flaws plate that they saw. The center also had a bizarre letter that they had never seen before.

"What... is this?" Torman exclaimed.

"This cannot be the plate!" Carlisto shouted.

"It is. The Vow disappeared. We all saw that vow! He had to give the formation plate that he used!" Elford's expression turned sour.

As the three mages began to discuss what the formation plate had, Pement and Emeros returned to the mine.

Emeros had wounded himself and even asked Serena to punch him to make it look like he had been through something terrifying.

But even as Serena pounded Emeros, she was surprised to know that the real person she would thank was Emeros! Perment wasn't the master, and it was Emeros's knowledge that helped them achieve this.

Perment had been crying the entire time they went home.

Emeros was also surprised at Perment's reaction. He realized that Perment did not simply hate these men. There was no arrogance in Perment's reaction as he continuously thanked Emeros for the opportunity.

"Kid... You will never know what burdens you freed. It's not just my own. But the hardship of my wife is being resolved!"

"Your wife?!" Emeros was stunned.

"My wife, a superior mage far better than me, has been thrown to the Dark Prison. None of those three were the primary people responsible for her chains, but they were important tools! I know I have a shot at proving my wife's innocence!" Perment explained.

Emeros smiled.

"Thank you for putting your hopes on me. I would not have the opportunity to discover just... how much hope for a better future I have. I guess I, too, now have my chances of avenging those who had slain the people I love."

"Take these potions. The red ones will allow you to preserve what you do know. The two blue ones will help you remember things. Take the blue potions first, and then the red ones. I hope tomorrow we make more miracles!"

"I will. Serena must remain in your care, Perment. But I hope you can remove the slave seal from her. I don't want us to be a group of slaves. We should all be free!"

"I was thinking the same thing!" Perment smiled.

Serena was surprised at the two. She realized that the lewd looks of Perment earlier were just part of a scheme, and these two weren't as evil as they were.

The two parted ways as Emeros returned to his cell. He made it look like he was tired and wounded, and the guards didn't say anything but many sneered at Emeros's poor state.

But once in his cell, Emeros took the blue potion.

"Kyros... Teach me more!" Emeros spoke as he drank down the bottle.
