Emery had his reasons for not leaving this place with Klea and the others. Even though it related mostly to Silva, it wasn't for the reason that Klea thought of.

Just like what the supreme magus had warned him about the drawbacks of his actions and Emery knew he was on borrowed time. Because of that, he had to make sure that he did as much as he could while he still could before eventually facing the serious repercussions – whatever they are – after.
Emery exhaled a relieved sigh when he saw the portal closing in front of him.
Now that the acolytes had been secured, the next thing he should do was to save Silva, someone who had done so much for him, and then hopefully he can also find Eshoo, one he felt responsible for leaving behind.
Spreading his now-enhanced spirit reading, he could clearly see how the giant serpent in the firmament roared loudly after being bombarded with attacks by several dark elf magus. His heart ached as he heard the agony that was evident in her roar.
"Hang in there, Silva! I'm on my way!"
However, just as he was about to teleport to where she was, he was stopped by a sudden deafening sound that came from nearby. Turning his head quickly, Emery was in time to catch the remnants of the explosion inside the dark smoke where Delbrand was fighting the dark elf grand magus.
To his surprise, he could see splatters of blood and numerous body parts scattered around the area, most likely blown off by the explosion.
Even though he was worried about the white-haired girl, Emery couldn't help but to check about the headmaster's situation. That said, he blinked himself inside the dissipating smoke.
Fortunately, it was Delbrand who won the fight. However, the victory did not come cheaply as the powerful figure seemed to be seriously wounded.

"Urghh.. I got him… Emery… the others" The words were interrupted by a cough of blood, but his face turned to smile realizing the situation "They are out already… Good.. Very good…"
There was a faint smile on Delbrand's face as he glanced at what Emery had become. The man's expression quickly turned serious once more though as he said, "Emery, you can help me…, no, help us all.. We can't afford to have that ship take off!!"
The explanation that the headmaster gave was a brief one, but it was enough to make Emery extremely anxious. As it turned out, the former had just found out from the dark elf grand magus just before the latter's death that the elves had discovered the transport ship, and now the Battlestar ship was heading towards it.
"Get me as close to the ship as possible!! I will destroy it, or at least make sure it won't be able to fly!!"
What the headmaster said to him was certainly an urgent situation. Immediately, he quickly confirmed said elven ship that was three hundred miles away from them was indeed not moving towards them, but instead ascending up to the atmosphere.
For a split second, he couldn't help but hesitate when he heard the shrieking sound of the giant serpent once again. His heart screamed out to help Silva; but in the end logic won as his actions followed the will of the headmaster.
Grabbing the man, Emery mustered his spirit energy and quickly cast a long teleportation, instantly transporting the two of them to an area just several miles away from the ascending elven ship.
However, it seemed the task would not be as smooth as he had originally thought. Aside from the several dozen triangular-shaped elven ships hovering around the ship as escorts, there were also at least 40 dark elves magus, half down on the compound, the other hovering in between them and the huge space ships. And of course, they were all quickly alarmed by the arrival of the two of them.
Even though his condition was still covered with wounds, Delbrand quickly dashed towards the ship while casting his powerful spell.

With the huge plumes of dark smoke as his vessel, Delbrand took flight and proceeded to destroy all the elven fighter ships and magus that came in between him and the elven battleship. Not a single trace of hesitation was felt from the man's actions as he continued to kill the elves.
However, just a mile away from reaching his target, a grand magus level dark elf stepped out of the battleship and shot towards Delbrand. A figure much stronger than all the others Emery had seen before.
The dark elf grand magus created similar constructs as Delbrand, except one was made of dark flames instead. Two different clouds swiftly collided, producing a powerful explosion that sent out violent winds, shook the space around the area, and most importantly, created a crack into the ship's shield barrier.
Just before the clash happened, Emery was startled by a familiar voice in his mind. It was of Delbrand's where he said, "You are our last hope. I'll leave it to you."
Hearing those words, Emery could see that a path was open for him. Recalling what they had sacrificed to get to this point, he shot forward without the slightest hesitation, onto the same path had paved and cleared. An opening below the ship, one that was targeted by the headmaster.
A brilliant pair of glowing wings of light emerged splendidly on his back, gravitational force swirling around his body to further increase his speed; he streaked across the sky towards the elven battleship at breakneck speed.
As for his selection of offensive spell, Emery opted for the one that would deal the most damage possible; he chose [Dao Matter]. Two distinct orbs materialized in his hand before converging and becoming one in harmony.
He flowed the power of his new powerful two cores; the green crystalized magus core and the Primal core into each of his arms, and quickly channeled it to form one dazzling yet powerful ball of energy that he unhesitatingly threw right into the target.

The resulting explosion the spell made was one at a scale that Emery had personally never done before – one worthy of the level of grand magus.
A smile crept its way to Emery's face when he saw the blast. However, after everything subsided, he could tell that the destruction he created was not enough. Flame and smoke burned some parts of the ship, but it still didn't stop it from leaving. To Emery's dismay, the ship continued to ascend into the sky, moving at an even faster pace.
"No! No!!"
Knowing the havoc that would befall if the warships were allowed to escape, Emery became extremely solemn. He now only had one last spell he could cast before they went out of his range.
As if that wasn't bad enough, it also needed to be stronger than his [Dao Matter].

Then, something within told him about a certain spell, one he had only seen before, but somehow he knew that he could cast it. A strange phenomenon appeared around him as terrifying energy gathered within him and this brought him the determination to once again rushed toward the ascending ship.
Multiple dark elves magus closing in, and dozens of triangular elven ships attempted to shoot him down. But with his space ability he managed to dodge them all until he entered the little gap he created from the previous blast and finally released the power within.

Dear readers, with this chapter, the month of January is over.
I thank you for your support in purchasing the privileged chapters. Please let me say one more time how grateful I am and that only with your support can this story continue.
Firstly, I would like to apologize for a much lower update than I expected. 40 chapters from the usual 60 per month.
It started with a little break and then my offline post covid activity kept me busy.
On the bright side, I got to spend more time with my family and get some better sleep, for that I am grateful. I also get to have more time to really think about the story, especially the next arc after this one which will be a huge turning point in the story.
And yes, I still owe you all two times mass-released and commissioned art, which I will definitely do this February. Plus for compensation, this February I will do a 25% privilege discount for tier 4 and 5 privilege chapters.
I hope you will join me again for the February chapters. Don't forget to drop by our discord channel for the end of month's event for coins giveaway, quizz, and a chance to win access to the highest privilege chapter for free.
