Chapter Fourteen: The Wall of Ice and Fire



Miracles happen in an instant.

A 'click' sound rang out.

The spectacular "fire wall" was frozen solid from bottom to top.

In an instant, the high temperature of 55 degrees Celsius plummeted to below zero.

The bottles thrown by several apprentice knights actually froze the level 8 fire magic of a magic tower lord.

If this were said out loud, probably no one on the entire continent would believe it.

But a miracle happened right before their eyes.

Everyone's pupils dilated in shock; no one could react in time.

[You demonstrated the power of the 'Frost Potion' in full view of everyone, gaining 100 points of Good Reputation.]

Li Aili: Wow~

At this moment, Charlie Colan reacted the fastest, "Ahhh! It must be the devil! The bottle must have contained 'witch potion'!!"

"Yes! It must be!"

Yes, hahaha! Arthur Cold Emerald actually went so far as to make a deal with the devil!?

Hehe! Hehehehehehe!

However, the one who reacted most strongly was Jupiter, the lord of the Demon Tower.

He couldn't take it anymore, so he opened a magic portal and, despite his advanced age, kicked Charlie Colan in the backside, seemingly trying to kick him through the portal.

But clearly, the huge weight difference between the two predetermined the outcome.

Seeing that Charlie Colan was not moving at all, the old man got so angry that he swung his staff.

A gust of wind blew the bewildered Charlie Colan into the portal.

All that could be heard from the other side of the portal were a woman's screams and a man's angry curses.

"Damn it! Charlie, how did you fall from there!"

"Ahhh! Your Majesty! Get him out of here!"

"Close your eyes! Damn it, close your eyes and get out!"

Li Aili: "..."

She felt that the situation there might be a bit inappropriate for children.

Jupiter casually waved his hand, closing the portal, and the sounds of chaos and war on the other side disappeared.

The royal knights escorting Charlie Colan opened their mouths, seemingly wanting to say something on Charlie Colan's behalf.

But upon seeing the appearance of Jupiter, the Lord of the Red Tower, they obediently shut their mouths.

Lord Jupiter of the Red Tower, clutching his white hair, walked step by step to the massive "iceberg".

"...Impossible, how could this be?"

His image was reflected on the ice, his eyes were bloodshot, and his long silver hair was tangled up in a mess.

Li Aili also carefully examined the masterpiece of the [Frost Potion].

To be honest, she didn't expect the [Frost Potion] to be so powerful.

I've always used it as a 'herb preservative,' which is a real waste of its potential.

Ah, this fire is quite strong; it's still "stubbornly" flickering within the ice.

It was truly a spectacle, fire within ice.

"Wow~" She didn't mean to mock anyone; she was simply marveling at the beautiful sight.

However, Mr. Jupiter, who was on the verge of madness in front of the iceberg, could not bear this "stimulation".

He could naturally tell who made the medicine bottle.

"Don't be so arrogant!" he shouted at Li Aili.

Duke Cold Jade's face darkened, and he reached back to draw his sword, but Li Aili held his hand down.

The Duke paused, looking down at the small hand pressing on the back of his hand.

After yelling, Jupiter started pacing around in circles, muttering to himself in a hysterical manner, "What is this that can freeze level 8 fire magic?"

"Could it be a level 9 ice spell?"

"No! This is impossible! I've never seen ice magic like this—" his expression twisted, "...can be contained in a bottle!!"

"The only vessel for magic can be an enchanted scroll..."

"Clearly, it's not a 'witch potion' either."

"Ah! Whatever it is, my magic will never be defeated!! Magic! It can only be defeated by magic!" The Lord of the Red Tower shouted, startling Li Aili.

"Ah, how about we make a bet?" Li Aili asked. "How long can my [Ice Potion] seal your magic?"

"Pshaw! How long! Little girl, you really dare to spout such nonsense! I am the Lord of the Demon Tower! Your tricks won't fool me for long!"

“In less than a day!” he said, looking at the flames leaping within the thick ice. “In less than a day, my flames will burn away all your tricks!”

After thinking about the "Water Flower sample" she gave to the Duke, Li Aili felt that her potion should last for another two or three days, so she readily nodded.

"Okay, let's bet on whether my ice can last a day."

"Ah, what's the stake?"

The Lord of the Red Tower had bloodshot eyes. "If you lose, tell me the principle behind the liquid in that bottle!"

Upon hearing this, the knights of the duchy were enraged.

A magician's magic is not passed on to anyone other than his apprentice, so does that mean the Duchess's "Miracle Bottle" can be freely passed on to outsiders?!

The Duke's pupils slowly widened until they became a vertical line, staring coldly at the aged "Lord of the Magic Tower".

Li Aili asked curiously, "I'm going to have to make such a big bet, so what about you? What are you planning to give up if you lose?"

The Lord of the Red Tower's face twisted slightly at the mere thought of the outcome. "If I lose, I will pass on this level eight fire magic to you!"

Li Aili shook her head. "If I win, it will prove that my stuff is more powerful than your magic."

"In other words, the price I paid in this bet is higher than yours, which is not worthwhile. You should choose another one."

"What did you say???" Jupiter's voice cracked. "Do you know how many great magicians have begged me to take them as my apprentices?!"
