Angele sat on the floor of the spell room. Weeks of meditation had reduced him to skin and bones.

There was a silver glint on his pale skin and his lips were gray, but his eyes were still as bright as the daylight.

He glanced around the room.

The white runes on the black stone floor were covered with a thin layer of dust.

The thick stone walls prevented Angele’s energy waves from leaking outside and, at the same time, the runes stabilized the energy flow inside the room.

"That took me a while…" Angele sighed in relief.

Zero’s mechanical voice echoed in his ears.

‘Body scan completed. Unknown changes detected. Analysis available.’

‘Show me.’

Blue light dots flashed in front of his eyes and they brightened up the dark room.

‘Analysis completed. New ability acquired: Bewitching.’

‘Bewitching? What’s that?’ Angele was surprised. He had never seen anyone acquire an ability like that after reaching the next stage.

According to the books, most wizards had their attributes increased after reaching the Liquid stage.

‘Bewitching. Your words, behaviors, and energy waves will affect others around you. They’re now more likely to agree with the points you make."

‘Ah, so it’s like a hypnotic spell.’ Angele raised his arms.

Suddenly, countless black flowery patterns climbed up the back of his hands, which looked like black vines twisting around his body.

Some of them had the shape of a vortex and some looked like straight strings. Angele felt uncomfortable by just staring at those patterns.

The black patterns stayed away from his face, but they spread to all his other body parts.

Angele stared at the back of his right hand. There was a glowing snake-shaped black pattern.

‘No energy waves and it doesn’t require mentality to activate. So, it’s just a byproduct of becoming a Liquid stage wizard?’ Angele wondered.

Angele tried to control the black patterns using his mind.

Quickly, the black patterns vanished into his skin and everything returned to normal.

‘Zero, show me the information on Bewitching. There’s something I need to know.’

‘Transferring information.’

Rows of data about the Bewitching ability were transferred into Angele’s brain.

The data was acquired from the memory of the great harpy’s ancient bloodline.

The legend said that the great harpies were expelled by the elders because of their ability called the Bewitching, causing them to find another place to live.

When they had the intention to kill, these black patterns would appear on their body and the living beings that saw the patterns would be seduced. The patterns were invisible to others most of the time, but whoever saw them would be trapped in the illusions. People with strong resistance to the illusion would find the harpies charming, but they could turn the ones with weak resistances into their slaves.

This was their most terrifying ability besides the ability to enter the Nightmare Realm.

Although Angele only inherited a small amount of the ancient blood, this talent ability still awakened after he advanced to the next stage.
