Chapter 186: Betrayal

Silas’s expression was really dark.

He looked at Rafi and spat out, "Let my mother go."

The dark mana around Silas caused the air to crackle. Even though it was not as intense as the distortion that Aya caused some time ago, this alone had already told others that Silas’s mana was more than enough to cause disruption in the air.

This phenomenon could only be found on those peak rank 6 magic warriors.

Because only when their mana reached a certain amount and would soon reach the critical time when it had to be compressed would it disrupt the air around.

But Rafi and Silas’s mother didn’t notice this.

"I didn’t kidnap her." Rafi rolled his eyes and put Silas’s mother down. With him carrying her, he wouldn’t be able to fight properly.

"What are you talking about?" Silas’s killing intent was still as strong as ever.

"Stop this!" Silas’s mother stood between the two of them, looking at the two people who were related to her and also the person whom she loved. Her expression was complicated as she said, "I come here voluntary, Silas. If you’re here to bring me back, please go back."

Silas looked at his mother.

He knew very well that his mother was lonely after his father had left.

Because of this, Silas didn’t really stop his mother if she wanted to have a new relationship after her husband had died. He felt that since he couldn’t spend so much time with her, there would be someone else who would accompany her.

But Silas had never thought that Rafi would be a spy.

And hearing his mother’s words, Silas felt his heart twisted and he took a deep breath. He knew very well that it would do him no good to force her back.

But...

"Mother, do you want to be a traitor?" Silas asked deeply.

"I know," Silas’s mother said with a weak smile. "But I don’t want to go back there and be alone anymore, Silas. I want to go out with him... even if it means betraying Wansu City."

Silas was silent.

He looked at his mother deeply and then turned his head to look at Rafi beside her. He had seen Rafi was planning to take out some things from his storage scrolls.

"I’m not here to bring you back but to stop him," Silas said slowly. "The information in his hand couldn’t get out."

"Heh." Rafi sneered.

This damn brat was indeed strong, but Rafi himself was not exactly someone who would give up so easily.

"I won’t let you." Silas’s mother wanted to stop Silas.

"Step back to the side, this battle can’t involve you," Rafi said. "Let us settle this problem for once and all."

Silas’s eyes narrowed.

SIlas’s mother felt conflicted but she still stepped aside. However, from the way it looked like, she wanted to protect Rafi with all she could.

The corner of Silas’s mouth curled up slightly to form a mocking smile.

He should have known.

...

Thud!

When Aya arrived, the battle was over.

The dark magic crackled in the air and the mana distortion made it hard for one to breathe around Silas. But for a rank 7 magic warrior like Aya, this mana distortion didn’t have much effect.

She didn’t step forward.

Aya stayed silent in her place and looked at the two people who had died in front of Silas and took a deep breath. At this moment, Aya understood that even if she tried to change some things, there were also things that she could never change.

This is just one of them.

Aya turned around and left again.

After reaching rank 7, her mana control became even more exquisite. Even if she was staying not far from Silas, he wouldn’t be able to detect her presence unless she wanted to. Of course, if he managed to reach rank 7, that would be a different story.

But right now, Silas is just a rank 6 magic warrior.

A 16 years old rank 6 magic warrior.

If other people were to know about this matter, it was estimated that there would be many people who wanted Silas’s head. Not only from outside of Wansu City, the people within Wansu City itself might want to take his life.

Swish!

Rushing over and scanning the area, Aya took a deep breath and activated her magic.

’Crystal eyes.’

Expanding the range over the details, Aya would be able to see further away with this magic. And through this magic, Aya could see that there were 2 groups of magic warriors leaving.

With Silas’s condition, he wouldn’t be able to notice that there were other magic warriors nearby.

So let her be the one to clean this up.

Swish!

...

The other magic warriors from Wansu City arrived and saw this scene. Because many of them came from the Black Family, they also recognized Silas’s mother.

Some of them patted Silas’s back and started to check the man’s body.

Silas just stood there.

He took a deep breath and nodded at the other magic warriors, indicating that he was fine.

"I’m sorry to ask this, but we need to know what happened here."

"Yes," Silas answered calmly and described what happened before they arrived. It was a simple and direct fight in which Silas crushed Rafi easily. As a spy and magic warrior, Rafi was relatively weak and didn’t have much ability. He relied more on some magic scrolls and other magic items.

Those things were useful against weaker magic warriors.

But facing magic warriors above rank 4, it was usually not too useful.

Silas is already a rank 4 on the surface, so this kind of explanation was acceptable. Anyway, no one knew Rafi’s real ability but him.

Silas said that his mother chose to side with Rafi, so she had to die.

He didn’t explain how she died and the others also didn’t ask. It would be difficult to ask this question to Silas.

"The scrolls are not with him," one of the magic warriors finally said.
