Chapter 472 One Move
Outside the carriage, a mini snowstorm vortex suddenly appeared. It came abruptly, but soon, a
snowman manifested amidst it. The snowman was the size of an average human, and she looked
realistic. Even her eyes, nose, and mouth were extremely detailed.
Jayron quickly put a cloak on the snowman and greeted her with respect. “Your Holiness!”
The snowman merely nodded lightly before walking into the ck market. Seeing that, Jayron
immediately followed behind.
They entered the ck market, which was teeming with people from all walks of life as usual.
Although the appearance of a snowman was quite peculiar, the people there were all used to unusual
characters. Thus, it didn''t spark a great sensation.
However, due to the snowman and Jayron''s imposing aura, no one dared to approach them to sell
anything.
The snowman went straight to a pawnshop with Jayron, where Jonathan had sold his magic gem.
The shop owner waspletely engrossed and tapping away on his calctor. After noticing someone
entering the shop, he looked up and froze in surprise at the sight of the snowman and Jayron.
A momentter, he shed a smile and asked, “Wee. What do you wish to pawn?”
The snowman looked at the shop owner and questioned, “Did you receive a magic gem yesterday?”
The shop owner grew wary instantly. “Yes, I did. But I''ve already bought the magic gem. It doesn''t
matter to me where it came from, since it''s already mine. If you want it, that''s fine as well. Just pay me
thirty thousand gold coins.”
The snowman shot the shop owner an indifferent nce. Suddenly, shemanded, “Come here!”
The sentence overflowed with captivating magic. As soon as the shop owner heard the words, he was
stunned momentarily before walking toward the snowman in a daze.
At the same time, a man in white came out from inside. He was in his forties, and his mannerisms were
filled with elegance. After ncing at the snowman, he spoke. “Every ce has its own set of rules;
Norwal City is no exception. There are rules to be followed in my pawnshop as well. I believe you have
broken our rules with your actions!” At that, he eximed to the shop owner, “Come back!”
The shop owner shuddered and sobered up instantly. At the same time, he nced at the snowman
fearfully before apologizing to the man in white with shame. “Master, I''m sorry for my uselessness!”
“This is not your fault. You can''t handle these people. You should step aside,” the man in white
instructed faintly.
“Yes, Master!” Hearing that, the shop owner retreated to the side instantly.
Since tyrants were the main customers of businesses in Norwal City, those who could survive and
establish a shop in Norwal City must be skilled and formidable. The man in white was Zephyr Tobar, a
hidden Archmage.
Not all people in Moranta had the Epean bloodline. Many had the Aplothian bloodline as well, such as
Zephyr, who was a typical Aplothian.
Zephyr had been staying in Norwal City for a long time. However, he didn''t know the identity of the
snowman before him. Nheless, he wasn''t too interested to find out. All he knew was that no one
was allowed to cause trouble in his shop.
Zephyr and the snowman stared at each other icily.
Jayron stood aside, remaining motionless. Once he received an order from Theos, he would begin
killing.
“If there''s nothing else, please leave,” Zephyr said calmly.
The snowman responded, “Were you telling me Norwal City''s rules just now?”
Hearing that, Zephyr grinned coldly and asked in return, “Why? Can''t I tell you the rules?”
“To me, there are no rules I must abide by.”
“Such arrogance!” Zephyr snapped. He then sneered, “It seems like you''re not nning to resolve this
matter peacefully today.”
“You''re no match for me.”
“Oh, is that so? I don''t believe it!”
“I''ll kill you if you make a move. I advise you not to attack.”
Zephyrughed out loud in response. “Very well, then. This is the first time I''ve met such an insolent
person like you. I''d like to find out how powerful you are.” With that, he put his hands together and
created a hand seal. While his hands moved rapidly, he chanted a spell quickly. Then, Zephyr pointed
at the snowman and yelled, “Infinite Abyss, exterminate!”
Zephyr''s attacking speed was swift and instantaneous.
As soon as he finished speaking, something began stirring around the ground where the snowman was
standing. Earth elements surged on the surface, and a small ck hole appeared. The earth elements
stirred up vigorously and surrounded the snowman like a tornado.
Zephyr would use that move to capture his enemies in the ck hole before tearing them into pieces
using tornado-like knives made from earth elements.
This was an attack that could catch enemies off guard, and it was extremely vicious and powerful.
The next moment, Zephyr attacked once again. After making a few hand gestures, he shouted, “Earth
Explosion! Explode!”
At that instant, the earth elements changed and began exploding like bombs.
The two moves were unleashed consecutively, and the speed was astounding. One could just tell how
strong and skilled an Archmage was.
However, the snowman stood motionless even after these attacks.
Be it Infinite Abyss or Earth Explosion, the snowman remained unscathed after the two spells were cast
on her.
Seeing that, Zephyr turned pale in shock.
The snowman uttered indifferently, “I told you I''ll kill you if you make a move.” She abruptly extended
her finger, and Zephyr''s surrounding shifted instantaneously.
A tornado swirled around him. When the small yet powerful tornado vanished a brief momentter,
Zephyr had be an ice sculpture.
Next, the snowman blew at the ice sculpture, which began to crack.
With a loud bang, crushed ice scattered everywhere across the ground. However, Zephyr''s figure was
nowhere to be seen anymore.
With just one move from the snowman, the Archmage got in and disappeared into thin air.
After witnessing the situation, the shop owner was too stunned to speak.
He knew very well how powerful Zephyr was, and witnessing thetter getting destroyed by the strange
snowman with just one move instilled a deep fear within him.
“Come here!” the snowman ordered the shop owner again.
The sentence still had the same captivating ability, trancing the shop owner to walk toward the
snowman. Then, the snowman reached out and touched the top of the shop owner''s head.
At that instant, she read all the memories in his mind—his recollections of meeting with Jonathan and
the others, the deal they struck, and the clothes he gave them.
After that, the snowman withdrew her hand, then turned around and left. Jayron followed closely behind
her.
The snowman said to Jayron, “Torrence and his group asked for three sets of clothes from here. I
predict that the thief named Jonathan is a scheming man; he sold a magic gem and abandoned
another one. I''m afraid the act of getting clothes is also a trick used to confuse us!”
“Your Holiness, you''re impressive!” Jayron eximed in awe.
The snowman ignored Jayron and continued, “Let''s head to Heavenly Questions Pavilion and take a
look.”
“Your Holiness, could it be that you''ve already seen the track and know where the rebels are heading?”
asked Jayron curiously.
“We won''t have to go through all these troubles if I know. It''s just that the magic gem had appeared
here before, and the scent still lingers in the air. I''m just making my judgment based on the magic
gem''s scent.”
“Your Holiness, you have far-reaching powers, and you can utilize The Void Manifestation with your
divine spirit. Since the rebels were here yesterday, they shouldn''t be too far ahead of us. Why aren''t
you using The Void Manifestation to track them down?”
“Currently, there are no scents on them that I''m familiar with. A fifty-kilometer radius is a vast range.
Even if I use The Void Manifestation, everyone will be presented on The Void as a ck dot only. I can''t
tell who they are unless they are within five kilometers.”
Realization dawned on Jayron.
Following that, the snowman and Jayron came to Heavenly Questions Pavilion and entered the gates
directly.
Thirteen and the other employee were still waiting at the counter for new customers to arrive.
“Ask your master toe out and see us,” Jayronmanded.
As a sensible man, Thirteen immediately noticed that the snowman and Jayron were far from ordinary.
He hummed a quick acknowledgment and went to carry out Jayron''s order promptly.
A whileter, Thirteen returned and said, “This way, please.”
He led the snowman and Jayron to a hidden room. where a screen was set up. An aged voice
resounded behind the screen. “I''m surprised that you visited us personally, Your Holiness. Heavenly
Questions Pavilion is truly honored to be blessed with your presence!”
The snowman responded in a nonchnt tone, “Since you already know my identity, I''m sure you know
why I''m here. You''ve already met the three rebels, right?”
“That''s right,” said the old man.
The snowman continued, “And they asked you to ry fake news to me. Am I right?”
“You are wise, Your Holiness. No one can hide anything from you,” the old man answered.
Hearing that, the snowman asked again, “Then are you still nning to deceive me?”
“Your Holiness, I''m afraid I won''t be able to deceive you even if I want to.”
“Great. Now tell me. Where were they heading to?”
The old man couldn''t help but let out a burst of bitterughter. “Your Holiness, the rebels are smart.
Why would they tell me where they are going? But naturally, they must be heading to Pollerton this
time.”
“Then what else did they get from you? Disguising gadgets?” the snowman inquired.
“That''s right!”
“Very well. Heavenly Questions Pavilion always does things wlessly and knows how to avoid risks. I
believe you have already tampered with the disguising gadgets, right?” asked the snowman.
“It seems like no one can keep a secret from you, Your Holiness,” responded the old man with a
helpless chuckle.
“In that case, hand over everything, and I will spare your lives.”

“Yes, Your Holiness.”
Thereafter, the snowman and Jayron left Heavenly Questions Pavilion.
“I can''t believe the respected Heavenly Questions Pavilion would be so pathetic when facing you, Your
Holiness. They went against all their agreements with others,” Jayron couldn''t help remarking.
