Chapter 302: Escape, Noah and the first elder?
Boom!
The mental space seemed to be collapsing with the power of the black ball that appeared to be capable of engulfing everything.
William was instantly horrified. However, the more horrifying thing was that the Golden Words were being forcefully moved with no resistance.
"What is happening?" William could only utter these words with an incredulous expression on his face.
Right before his eyes, the Golden Words, the only hope he had, were slipping away.
"Stop, Golden Words!" William shouted at the top of his lungs, but no matter what, he couldn't control the Golden Words.
These things seemed to have a will of their own and never listened to any of William's words when he wanted them to.
Only when William was dying or when there were some changes in his mental space did it activate.
However, now, even though it was clearly being taken away, the Golden Words didn't react at all, remaining motionless, which brought him true despair.
"Asmodeus, Lily, help me."
William shouted again; however, Lily was also stunned by the development. As the prisoner of the Golden Words, she couldn't do anything except for some meagre power she had recovered, allowing her to.
As for Asmodeus, it was exactly what he wanted. Whether he has the method to stop it or not, why would he stop it?
Just like that, the Golden Words were sucked into the black ball and taken out of his mental space, under the despair-filled eyes of William.

He couldn't mutter or say anything that stopped the Golden Words; despair clouded William's mind.
"I can't die here."
Aur in the outside world looked at the black ball that was appearing in front of him with a surprised expression.
He didn't expect that the black ball could suck away the Golden Words so easily.
Although almost all the mana in his mental space was draining, his focus was no longer on there, instead at the Golden Words that was suspended in mid-air with a trace of avarice in his eyes.
However Aur didn't immediately move.
He still didn't trust these old monsters who had given him all these methods out of nowhere. If he could betray William so easily then he could also betray Aur as well.
Aur was sure of it that there was a back hand to it.
Just at this moment he sensed two beings who were rapidly converging towards him at a terrifying speed.
"Hmm, who is it?" Aur's expression changed.
There was a faint sense of danger lingering around the presence of these two individuals so he knew at least one thing: they both had the power of tier three wizards, otherwise there is no way that they are any threat to him at least in these villages.
Under his fist, an ordinary tier two wizard was like bugs all crushed.
And one particular presence was very strong that made Aur feel a sense of danger to his life.
"Who are they?"
Aur captured the Golden Words in a jar and looked towards the ashes; there was still a trace of vitality in it.
This vitality was still tenaciously growing even after William had turned into ashes.
If he didn't make a move, then this vitality could grow and complete William's body again.
When he was about to wave his hand to remove the vitality.
His crimson pupils widened as his figure suddenly vanished from the place.
Boom!
The temperature of the surroundings started to diminish, and a huge ice lance shot toward Aur's position. The void trembled under the might of the ice lance freezing even the very air.
"Hmm, that bastard escaped?" Noah spoke in a gloomy tone.
Another man appeared before him, and when he saw this, he couldn't help but snicker.
"I thought the mighty village leader was strong, but now he can't even catch a brat?"
"You don't have the right to lecture me, you slow bastard."
The man was unfazed by Noah's comment; instead, he had a mocking smile on his face.
"I am just the first elder, so of course I am not as good as the village leader himself. A small character like me cannot possibly be faster than the village leader, right?"
Naturally, the man beside Noah was the first elder.
Noah's expression was weird because something felt off about the first elder's words; however, he soon shook his head.
"Hahaha." The first elder laughed again with a smug smile. However, he didn't forget the most important reason they were here. "Should we chase him?"
"That brat's speed is terrifying, already reaching the power of a tier three wizard. Even if we gave chase, it would be difficult to catch up to him. Besides, I left a little surprise for him. How dare he try to disrupt the plan of the lord?" Noah's expression turned stern. "And don't forget, capturing William is our current priority."
He looked around the place.
The first elder just snickered, which made Noah a little aggrieved.
But his expression abruptly froze when his eyes fell on the ashes left in the jar.
"What are you looking at?" The first elder frowned, following Noah's gaze.
"This is—"
"William." Noah said in a calm tone.
"These but what..." The first elder's face twisted. "It's over now, you bastard. Why are you so calm?"
Noah remained calm, looking at the first elder who was pinching his own hair.
"Look carefully."
"Hmm?" The first elder looked again, and with just a glance, he could sense the ever-growing vitality. There seemed to be a faint reconstruction of even flesh and blood.
"This, how is this possible?"
"I don't know." Noah shook his head. He went and directly picked up the ashes of William.
"Let's go now and return to Lord Sky immediately, otherwise the consequences will be..."
The first elder felt a chill down his back when he heard this, and he hurriedly nodded his head.
"Yes, yes, we should return immediately," the first elder said, with some fear in his eyes that reflected deep horror.
