The former glanced at the pale-skinned youth and asked agitatedly, \"Lord Slade, why did you kill him? We still don't know how he was able to learn our secrets.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Atkin to refer to the youth, who was the same rank as him, as 'Lord must mean that this person had a very strong background.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slade glanced at the man and solemnly said, \"Atkin, don't you find it weird that this lone Magus dared to come here all by himself and threaten to kill us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nara protested angrily, \"For all we know, this man must've been overcome by anger and just decided to come here to avenge whoever it was that—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, she was interrupted when Slade stepped forward and gently squeezed her cheek. He then applied a little pressure and spoke coldly, \"My dearest Nara, you forget who you're speaking to.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nara's eyes flashed with nervousness and she hurriedly apologized, \"F-Forgive me, my lord. I-I'm just too tensed by the whole situation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slade gently caressed the middle-aged woman's fair cheek and softly said, \"Don't worry, dear. Whoever this Merlin is, I'll report it to Uncle and request him to deal with it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused for a moment before glancing at Atkin, \"After all, the secrets that his Magus knows, if revealed to the world, would affect both of us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Atkin and Nara hurriedly nodded their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slade then turned to glance at Adam, who still had a bewildered look on his face as he stared at the dagger jutting out from his chest, and asked, \"Did you come here alone? Or perhaps your comrades are somewhere nearby?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam coughed out a mouthful of blood and he glared at Slade, \"You… I'll kill you…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm.\" Slade stroked his chin and thought for a moment. \"Looks like you won't be talking much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam didn't reply. He continued to glare venomously at the pale-skinned youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slade's eyes narrowed and then he coldly ordered his guardian standing behind Adam, \"Roy, finish him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As you wish, my lord,\" replied the man clad in black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man's eyes flashed with a vicious glint as he yanked the dagger out of Adam's chest. Then, he kicked the youth's legs from behind, causing him to miserably fall to his knees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His curved dagger, now coated with mana, gleamed with a cold and menacing glint and he swung his hand in one swift motion, aiming to decapitate Adam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next moment, something very peculiar happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black dagger seamlessly passed through Adam's neck!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roy's eyes narrowed when he realized that the sensation he felt just now was vastly different from what he was used to when he decapitated someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, there was no blood coming out of Adam's neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, it was… smoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, Adam's entire body dissolved into gray smoke and dissipated into thin air, causing everyone inside the room to be shocked out of their minds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hand of Doom: One Hit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SPLURT!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood and small pieces of mangled flesh spilled in all directions. Roy weakly lowered his head, his eyes flashing with confusion and panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw a fist stained by his own blood and flesh jutting out from his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, there was a large, gaping hole in his upper body. His heart, lungs, and a few other organs had already been blasted to smithereens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-What…\" That was all he could manage to mutter before the lights in his eyes dimmed and he lifelessly fell to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Atkin, Nara, and Slade had frozen in absolute terror. One moment, they thought that Adam had died, but the next moment, they learned that they had been deceived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Rank 2 Magus, a highly proficient assassin at that, had been killed in just one shot!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Roy's lifeless body miserably fell to the ground, a shadowy figure came into view. However, much to the trio's disbelief, it wasn't the chubby and pot-bellied Magus that they were expecting to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, it seemed to be a young man with a medium build, neither too muscular nor too lean. He was wearing dark Magus robes, and over it, he donned a black cape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, he also wore a black, point hat on his head that curled slightly to the side at the top.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most striking feature about this youth, however, was his pair of eyes that had the pattern of a brilliant white lotus ingrained in them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slade was the first to snap out of his daze. When he realized that he was dealing with a Magus skilled in illusions, he instantly lost all his will to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew just how terrifying these Magi could be in battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, he hurriedly conjured a magic scroll from his space-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>type storage ring. Then, without hesitation, he expended his mana into the scroll and tore it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, he disappeared!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Adam saw this, his eyes narrowed. He thought to himself in surprise, Teleportation? How decisive!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Slade!\" Atkin and Nara too came to their senses when they realized that the pale-skinned young man had decided to abandon them and flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, they nervously glanced at each other, and then at Adam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn't help but wonder if the person standing in front of them was such a big threat that Slade had immediately decided to retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when they realized that they had the advantage in numbers, their eyes shone with a hint of confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, two Mana Liquection Magi and dozens of Mana Foundation Magi should be enough to deal with the youth standing in front of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or so they thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Atkins was enraged at the fact that this person in front of them had deceived them. Even now, he still couldn't clearly see the young man's face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if his face had been shrouded in a layer of shadows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only thing he could see in those shadows was the pair of bright flower patterns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Atkin roared, \"You filthy scum, reveal yourself! How dare you trick us?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nara pointed her trembling finger at Adam and screeched, \"You! Don't think you can step out of this place alive! You're trapped, you hear me?! You've been completely surrounded!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adam's lips curled up into a malicious grin as he slowly took a step forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His lips parted and he muttered with raging killing intent, \"I'm not the one who's trapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1069,"2026-05-29T04:44:34.705Z","2026-06-01T04:29:11.309Z",1,"novelbin.me","4a4a0855aa231f76f9e884888de3344261ee9c9478c5cf707c6084610f1fdfef","greatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-chapter-364","greatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-chapter-362",1765,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgreatest-legacy-of-the-magus-universe-cover.jpg"]
