Earth's Greatest Magus-Novel

Emery was currently faced with a difficult dilemma, caught between choices that were all equally important and dire. The first would save thousands of lives, the second saved someone he cared about, and the last was arguably to save the most important person on this mission.

He very well understood that his master and Silva would not have asked him to come if their situation was not dire. And from what they've written in the messages they've sent, both of them sounded like they needed immediate help. Of course, this realization only plunged Emery into a deeper dilemma.

Seeing that the battle between the acolytes and the Nightwalkers was about to start again, Emery knew that he had to make his decision now; so he did.

Mustering the spirit energy within his body, Emery performed a gesture with his hand and created a huge Spatial Gate before shouting loudly for all of the acolytes to hear. "Get in the portal right now!"

The sheer size of the portal, coupled with the fact that Emery had directly cast it without any specific coordinates, meant that the Spatial Gate led to an unknown place with the only thing that was certain being that it was another hundred miles further away from the compound.

What Emery was giving the acolytes now was basically time.

With them teleported another 100 miles, there were only 150 miles left for them to traverse before finally arriving at the western gate. With the situation currently in his hands, this was all Emery could do for them.

​ Still, before he departed, Emery did not forget to hand the task of leading these acolytes to Mahinder.

"I am counting on you. Be safe!"

It took only three minutes for all of the acolytes to finally step into the portal. However, time was not on his side as a single minute could mean life or death for his friends and seniors.

Emery believed it was a risk needed to ensure those 1000 acolytes would reach safety, which was the main reason he and the others were here.

Immediately after, Emery's figure disappeared as he cast [Blink], arriving on top of the ruins of one of the tallest buildings in the area.

There, he waved his hand and opened a Spatial Gate that would return him to a place a few miles outside of the compound. Stepping out of the gate, Emery quickly tried to sense the whereabouts of his master.

Before he could do so, his attention was distracted by another message. He quickly checked it and to his surprise, it came from Headmaster Delbrand, and was addressed to everyone in the group to receive.

<The elf's reinforcement are estimated to arrive in less than ten minutes. You all have to get out! Now!>

Once again, Emery fell into a dilemma. He was conflicted between helping his master bring out the supreme magus or helping the precarious battle where Silva and Klea were; doing both would take time â€" time that he most likely did not have.

It was then that another message came. This one was from Eeshoo, and while it could be heard by everyone in the group, all knew the message was meant for Emery specifically after hearing it.

<Go save the others. Save my Jinkan and get out of here... This is my order>

Eeshoo used his authority to give him the last push that he needed.

With those words, Emery's decision was made and final. He was ready to open a Spatial Gate to where Silva and Klea were; but to his surprise, he discovered that he couldn't move his hands the way he wanted to.

"What... what's going on!?"

Something was happening to his body. Emery could feel his blood suddenly churning, turning hot. Before he could think about what was going on, his sight was suddenly engulfed by darkness.

What he saw afterward was the vision he usually saw during his bloodline refinement.

He was looking through the eyes of the Twilight Wolf, staring at a cliff where the figure of a golden wolf could be seen. The majestic.wolf was the representative of his Wolf Patriarch and it was currently staring down at him.

The other party emitted a powerful aura that compelled him to obey. Unable to resist, Emery found himself falling to his knee, and what followed was a certain familiar voice entering his mind.

"Don't make a mistake. Focus on your priorities. Saving the supreme magus is what you will do."

Although it was Patriarch Lucius himself who spoke, Emery tried hard to argue. However, due to the bloodline suppression, nothing seemed to be able to come out of his mouth. Instead, he felt that his entire body was ready to follow the man's orders without putting up resistance.

The voice once again spoke. "There is no need for you to resist. I am your patriarch; I am your alpha. I command you to follow my words."Follow current s on novelenglish.net . Fɪre

Emery quickly realized that this was exactly what he was warned about, the downside of being a halfblood and why no grand magus was willing to be his master that time after winning his second year magus game.

Unless he becomes a magus, he would always be a soldier to a stronger wolf gene, especially his alpha.

"Patriarch.. please... let me save my friends."

"No! Tens of thousands of your friends, does not compare to my master the supreme being.. you will listen to me!"

Unwilling to give up, Emery tried to fight against the order once again. Surprise could be felt from the patriarch.

"Your bloodline is strong indeed. Unfortunately, now that you are part of my pack, you can't resist me.. now go!"

As soon as the process concluded, Emery's mind was fully affected. He could feel that he was gradually having a change of heart; one that followed the will of his Alpha.

Emery quickly cast [Spatial Gate], not towards his friends, but towards where Eeshoo and his master were.

Intense turbulent energy could immediately be felt in the area as the clash between Eeshoo and the smoke summoned  creatures against the dark elf grand magus were inching closer to its climax.

As he saw Emery's figure, Eeshoo glared at him asking fiercely, "Why are you here!!?"

Same reaction happened to his master Xion as he looked at him as if he felt something strange with his disciple.

Emery, however, ignored their reactions as he resolutely walked towards the magus and arrived before the huge glass box.

Immediately, he placed his hand on the transparent wall and closed his eyes. It took him a minute to sense the space inside, where he quickly entered with a cast of [Blink], ready to grab the unconscious supreme magus.

"Patriarch, I have completed the task you asked me to."
