Wizard System: Dissecting a Mutated Monster From the Start - Chapter 23
Within the forest of the Feylan Family’s territory, everyone knew that Edward, who had the power of a god, was cultivating here. Duke Ják was being paranoid all day as a result.
However, they still arranged for a pair of knights who were willing to stay behind to guard the entrance.
Edward’s spiritual power spread out, and black shadows started growing out from under the tree. As his spiritual power was depleted, a huge black tentacle appeared before him.
Following his command, he wrapped his fingers around a thick tree trunk, and with a slight push, the entire tree trunk shattered.
It was the spell Edward had learned, Shadow Control.
[Prompt: Shadow Control: Cast Time: 1 second. Power: 10.4. Range: 10 meters.]
After dispelling the tentacles, a scorching fireball appeared out of thin air. Under his spiritual guidance, it became bigger and bigger. The heat even distorted the air.

The next moment, the fireball shot forward like a bullet, bringing sparks in the air.
Boom!
An explosion rang out in the forest, alarming all the birds and beasts in the forest. The dust dispersed, leaving only a scorched pit burning with sparks on the ground. The power was extremely shocking.
But at the same time, Edward had consumed a lot of spiritual power.
The immense power brought about Edward’s exhausted body.
[Prompt: Blazing Fireball: Cast Time: 1 second. Power: 24.1, Range: 5 meters.]
With Edward’s current spiritual power, he could only release six Blazing Fireballs.
At this point, Edward’s spell modeling ended. After seven hours of practice every day, Edward had grasped the essence of all his spells.
He was only a few milliseconds away from instantaneous casting.
He reached out and condensed a fireball in the air. The blazing sensation in his hand was very familiar to him.
With a thought, the fireball turned into sparks and fell to the ground.
There was nothing left to practice.
Under the respectful gazes of the knights, Edward walked out of the forest and returned to his room.
He picked up a bone on the table that contained the curse power in his body.
This bone came from the body of the monster he had hunted back then. It could withstand his curse power and be used as a medium.
This bone was not to be underestimated, if it were to be spread out, this barren island would almost be wiped out.
Edward, who could fully control the power of the curse, was confident in saying this.
As a Curse Wizard, he had already placed a curse on his bones.
There was a curse for the Royal Family.
This was also his gift to them!
The other huge object on the table was the stone giant in the Land of Fog that could be manipulated using the alchemy core.
This was the backup plan he had left for his family!
This puppet’s core could support the stone statue for about a month. There was no other way. The resources he found could only last this long.
“After all, it’s just a random barren island in the Endless Sea. There are too few things related to the mysterious power!”
Edward’s eyes showed his yearning for the Wizard World, but there was something he had yet to do about his family.
After more than a month of waiting, there was still no sign of any movement from the Royal Family. Even Duke Golin, who was related to Edward’s grandmother, sensed some unrest from the Empire.
There was no time to wait any longer.
Edward pulled out a transparent bottle. Inside, a cloud of white mist was thrashing about. It was the spirit of the dead Duke Will. He was about to disappear without any supplement of negative energy.
“Don’t be in such a hurry, Duke Will. I’ll let you test the Archbishop of the Royal Cathedral and turn the dead you into a soul before meeting him. That scene will be very interesting!”
“I’ll just take it as recycling trash.” Edward sneered upon saying that.
He opened the bottle and released the ghost, connecting his spiritual power to the ghost’s consciousness.
Instantly, Edward’s mind was filled with all sorts of negative emotions. It was the hatred and killing intent Duke Will had towards them when he was alive.
After Edward’s modification, the ghost’s dull eyes glowed with a faint blue light, and its expression turned ferocious as though it was filled with malice towards everything in the world.
This was Edward’s ability as a Curse Wizard!
He added the power of the curse into the ghost!
Edward looked at his test subject tiredly and smiled. He had used up all his spiritual power to channel the power of the curse into a ghost’s body.
The next morning, Edward knocked on Duke Ják’s door. As his mother had been sent back to the Golin territory by Duke Ják, she had yet to return.
So there was nothing uncomfortable about going to their room.
As soon as Duke Ják opened the door, he was stunned by Edward’s words.
“Father, do you want to become the ruler of the Levi Empire?”
Seeing Edward’s unrestrained manner, Duke Ják carefully gestured for him to keep quiet.
“Although the Royal Family and our family are at odds now, we still can’t say such things!”
“Otherwise, our family will be executed!”
“After this, there will only be one person who survives. That person will be me!”
Duke Ják looked at Edward sternly and said, “Edward, don’t say this anymore. Do you know that this is treason?”
Edward interrupted Duke Ják before he could finish.
“Treason? If we don’t rebel, how are we going to survive?” Edward sneered.
“The current situation is to strike first to gain the upper hand. Since they are unwilling to strike now, then I will strike first!”
“Next, go to the Golin territory to discuss with their ruler. You must take control of most of the knights. I’ll deal with the Royal Family,” Edward said calmly.
Duke Ják looked at his son in a daze, having a sense of unfamiliarity.
He naturally knew about the special power his son had.
But he never expected this…
“Edward, my dear son, I’ll listen to you!”
Looking at his confident son, Duke Ják ultimately chose to compromise.
If he succeeded, he, Ják, would definitely become famous in history.
A founder of a new empire!
What a great honor!
If he failed, the price would naturally be death!
Edward chuckled, “As the genius of my family, a dazzling star of the future, I naturally shoulder the responsibility of bringing honor to my family!”
