Chapter 88: Vessel Of Corruption (Part 4)
The next day, Azrael left the inn early. It was still 6 o’clock— two hours left before his scheduled meeting with Alex.
The first thing he did after leaving the inn was retrieve some scouting balls he had planted around the Magic Tower and Alex’s mansion.
He checked the recordings, and after thoroughly reviewing them, he confirmed that Alex had not gone to meet Claudia regarding the footage he had shown him the previous day.
If Alex had confronted Claudia, Azrael would have been forced to alter his plan, as there was a high chance that Alex would no longer come to meet him.
However, after confirming that Alex hadn’t met with Claudia and would most likely appear at the appointed time, Azrael turned his attention to another location—Harris’s mansion.
He planned to complete his trial today, and in case Alex also turned out not to be a vessel of corruption, only Harris would remain as a suspect.
Last night, he had spent hours devising multiple strategies to complete the trial smoothly, as with his current power, killing a Class-level warrior would be incredibly difficult.
After reaching Class level, not only does one gain a Class and powerful skills, but even the quality of their cosmic energy advances to the next level.
The difference in the quality of cosmic energy between an apprentice warrior and a Class-level warrior was immense, to the point that an apprentice would struggle to even penetrate the base-level defense of a Class warrior’s energy.
With his current stat points, if Azrael had his Wind powers activated, he would have been confident enough to face Class-level warriors of Harris or other Tower Masters’ caliber.
But with his current strength, killing them and completing the trial was a steep challenge.
After much contemplation, Azrael had finally devised a plan that he believed would allow him to complete the trial today if he succeeded in finding the vessel of corruption among the three Tower Masters.
