Chapter 529 My Hands Are Tied Emrys was taken aback, and he cursed under his breath, “D“mn! That old cunning bastard… When did he cast the Enticing Spell…”

Thud!

Emrys collapsed onto the table.

Across from him, Athos, who was supposedly so drunk he was unconscious, suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a sly smile. “Hmph! Brat, trying to compete with me? You’re still too inexperienced!”

After saying that, he hoisted Emrys onto his shoulders and ran off.

If it were a fair and square fight, Emrys felt he could have taken this old pervert down a notch. But when it came to cunning, he really was no match for this guy.

He didn’t even know when Athos had cast an Enticing Spell in the liquor jar.

That was a form of magecraft aimed at the psyche.

Emrys was fully conscious, and all his senses were intact. However, he couldn’t speak, his eyes, or move his body.

open This type of psyche–class magecraft could only be deciphered through Psychokinesis.

Given the current intensity of Emrys‘ thoughts, it would take at least half an hour, maybe even an hour, to break Athos‘ Enticing Spell.

Primarily, Emrys had never anticipated that this old man would actually cast an Enticing Spell on the inner wall of the liquor jar. This proved that wisdom often comes with age.

Obviously, it was a cunning move.

The wind whistled past his ears, and Emrys could sense that he was being carried on the shoulder of this old pervert. As for where he was being taken, and the purpose of such actions, it was still unclear at the moment.

Approximately less than twenty minutes later, Emrys suddenly heard a clear and captivating voice asking, “Mr. Athos, what happened to Rys?”

A very familiar voice, filled with urgency.

The one speaking was indeed Karina.

Karina, this simple and naive girl, had been tirelessly searching for her mentor, Mystique. Despite her efforts, she was unable to find her. In the end, she unexpectedly stumbled upon a large tomb instead.

Just as she was about to crawl in, she was abruptly pulled out by Mystique.

Athos placed Emrys onto a stone bed, his expression grave as he said, “He was poisoned, a very severe case of poisoning.”

“What? Poisoned?” Karina’s face changed abruptly, her eyes filled with worry. She said, “Mr. Lund is so capable. How could he be poisoned?”

Athos shook his head, remaining silent.

From the side, Mystique said to him, “Aren’t you skilled in medicine? After all, it was you who taught Emrys all his medical skills. Could it be that even you can’t save him?”

With a bitter smile, Athos said, “There certainly is a way to save him, but I’m unable to do it!”

“If there’s a way, there’s a way. If there isn’t, there isn’t. What do you mean by saying you have a way but can’t do it? How can it be a solution if it can’t be done? I think you simply don’t want to help!”

Mystique’s face darkened, and she huffed coldly.

Karina was on the verge of tears, pleading earnestly, “Mr. Athos, you must save my Mr. Lund. He must not come to any harm…”

“Calm down.” Athos comforted them, saying, “My hands are tied, but it would be quite easy for all of you to save him.”

“What do you mean?” Mystique furrowed her brows.

Athos hesitated for a moment, cleared his throat, and said, “Actually, the poison in Emrys is quite unique, extremely potent. He could only hold on for about half an hour at most.”

Tears had already begun to well up in Karina’s eyes when she heard those words.

But then, Athos continued, “However, if there was a woman who could be by his side within half an hour…”

Mystique quickly understood what he meant, and her expression changed abruptly. Angrily, she replied, “Why are you looking at me? Let me tell you, you old pervert, it’s impossible, absolutely impossible.

You might as well send your apprentice to his death!”

“Master, what are you saying? How can you just stand by and watch someone die?” Karina said, both anxious and angry.

Mystique’s face immediately showed a troubled expression. She explained, “Rina, it’s not that I’m unwilling to help a dying man, but rather, it’s inappropriate for me to interfere in this matter. It’s just not right.”
