Tale of a Hedonistic wizard

Chapter 93: Marry my descendant



Jaegar's skepticism lingered in the air as he weighed the old man's words. "What would I get from a cturies-old relic?" he questioned, his doubt evidt.

The old man's response held a promise veiled in mystery. "Let me out first, and I will tell you," he proposed, his voice carrying a hint of eagerness.

Jaegar arched an eyebrow, his skepticism unabated. "And you expect me to believe you?"

An exasperated sigh escaped the old man's ethereal form. "Fine, I swear by my name, Glaevan Gdittur. I will stand by my word. For the time being, I will give you the location of the dragon's lagoon. It possesses magical properties that can unlock your meridians, hancing your ergy efficicy."

Jaegar found himself pondering the proposition. The allure of heighted power was tantalizing, and the sincerity he detected in the old man's tone struck a chord within him.

"A young man like yourself shouldn't pass up this opportunity," the old man urged, ssing Jaegar's internal struggle.

After a momt of contemplation, Jaegar relted. "Okay." He thought about the offer, and it seemed like something he couldn't afford to miss out on, and if the old man tried to do anything, th he could deal with him later.

The old man's response was infused with guine delight, and his gratitude was evidt. He quickly said, "All you need to do is destroy the circle binding me." He instructed, his guidance leading Jaegar's gaze to the previously concealed pattern etched into the g. The symbols were intricate, shrouded in the igma of time.

Only half of the circle came into his vision, as the remaining half was concealed by the cave.

The old man told him to use the immemorial arts to break the circle.

With the wisdom of the immemorial arts, Jaegar embarked on the task.

Under the guidance of the old man, Jaegar's hands were veloped in red squares of sigils.

He carefully studied the symbols, their meanings, and their interconnections, searching for a way to disrupt the binding magic. Every movemt of his hand was deliberate and precise as he traced his fingers along the edges of the etched pattern. As he channeled his ergy into the circle, a faint shimmer of light began to flicker, indicating that his efforts were starting to bear fruit.

The very essce of his being resonated with ancit power as he channeled his ergy into the circle, causing it to fracture and splinter.

The resolute ergy seemed to manifest as visible cracks, culminating in a shattering release that reverberated through the cave. The circle, once unbreakable and fortified, succumbed to Jaegar's determination, releasing the old man from his ageless prison.

After he broke the circle, Jaegar felt like his whole body was drained of ergy and completely exhausted. His steps became unsteady as he stumbled towards the wall, his breath heavy and labored.

The suing momt was accompanied by a violt tremor, as if a sleeping beast had be awaked. The tire isle quaked, sding tremors through the g and startling the studts scattered across its expanse.

A deafing boom resounded within the cave, and a sse of impding collapse loomed in the air.

Reacting swiftly, Jaegar led himself out of the cave, seeking safety from the croaching danger.

Amidst the chaos, a historic laugh resonated, bearing witness to a newfound freedom. "Child, you freed me. The immemorial showed its might once again," the old man's voice exulted, reverberating within the cavernous space.

The circle that had lain upon the g was a testamt to its intded invincibility, a fortified cage meant to imprison the old man.

However, the passage of time had brought an unexpected glimmer of hope. The old man, though confined, ssed the emergce of Jaegar's limitless arts wh he tried to take over him, recognizing in them a power that might be harnessed for his release.

With the audacity of one who saw a chance at liberation, he had sought Jaegar's assistance. The old man seemed to be very much aware of the arts Jaegar possessed.

A wry smile curved Jaegar's lips as he mulled over the complex situation. Doubt cast its shadow upon his thoughts, intertwining with the mystique of the old man's cryptic tale.

Had he acted too hastily in granting freedom to this ancit being? The implications of his decision loomed before him like an igmatic tapestry, wov with threads of uncertainty.

The question that gnawed at him was simple yet profound—why had the old man be imprisoned within that impetrable circle in the first place? The shroud of mystery draped over his newfound acquaintance, leaving him grappling with doubts about the old man's true inttions and the repercussions of their unexpected alliance.

The old man, his perception attuned to Jaegar's inner turmoil, spoke reassuringly, ssing the young man's doubts like ripples in the fabric of his thoughts. "Fear not, young one," he said, his voice echoing in the cavern's chamber. "All will be revealed in time. Follow me, and let us fulfill our pact."

With a mixture of trepidation and a growing sse of curiosity, Jaegar followed the old man's lead. He didn't think further about what had already be done.

Guided by the mysterious tity, they traversed the hidd corners of the isle, their steps echoing softly off the rugged walls of the valley. The path they walked was a winding tapestry of twists and turns, an intricate maze that held secrets.

While moving, the old man said, "What is your name, child?"

"You felt like asking it now?"

"Jaegar Ambrose."

"I should know the name of the person who freed me from all those years of tormtation."

"And this is a small gift, and I will not forget your help that easily."

Th he fell silt, and Jaegar turned to see the old man who had stopped talking. He looked like he was thinking deeply.

"Now what are you gonna ask again?" Jaegar muttered.

Thinking about Jaegar and his possession of ancit arts. He seized him up once more and said, "I will arrange for one of my descdants to marry you. How about that?"
