No wonder our country keeps promising the people that they will only use Forbidden Curses as a last resort, Mo Fan realized.

It turned out that using the Forbidden Curses could cause such terrifying aftereffects! No wonder Forbidden Mages were nowhere to be seen. The media and countries never mentioned Forbidden Mages or Forbidden Curses either...

Forbidden Curses are too powerful. Theres a hidden rule in the Magic Associations. Every Forbidden Mage must protect the secret of Forbidden Curses. Every Forbidden Mage whose identity is exposed is under the surveillance of the Holy Court Mages and the Magic Associations of the Five Continents. In other words, they have lost their freedom, the Queen of the Netherworld stated.

So becoming a Forbidden Mage is like breaking the law now? Mo Fans eyes widened. He had two important life goals. He had almost achieved the first one, but becoming a Forbidden Mage was his second life goal!

Of course not, but when the Black Vatican first appeared in the early days, some of its members purposely provoked a Forbidden Mage by killing their close family members. The Forbidden Mage ended up losing his calm and used a Forbidden Curse to kill the culprit, resulting in a great tragedy, allowing the Black Vatican to achieve their goal. The Forbidden Curse being invoked was their true intention all along! the Queen of the Netherworld declared.

Why are you so good with history when you are just an empress who was never as reputable as the Tang empress... Mo Fan muttered again.

Stop interrupting, just listen to her. Mu Ningxue rolled her eyes at Mo Fan, and he immediately shut his mouth.

The Queen of the Netherworld grinned proudly, like she could not be bothered arguing with Mo Fan, and continued on with her explanation. Since some scum might abuse Forbidden Curses to reach their goals, the Magic Associations drew up a convention regarding Forbidden Mages. They are not allowed to disclose their identities to the public. Those who go public will be placed under strict surveillance, as will their close relatives and friends. They must report where they are at all times and are not allowed to use Forbidden Curses unless their lives are in danger! the Queen of the Netherworld stated.

Therefore, there are two kinds of Forbidden Mages. The first kind are those who kept their identity a secret. They can still live a normal life and go wherever they want. As for those whose identities are disclosed to the public, they hold important positions in society and are protected by their countries.

Mo Fan fell into deep thought. It would be a nuisance if he was being supervised at all times once he became a Forbidden Mage. He was destined to be at the top of the world, yet there were so many restrictions!

However, on second thought, those restrictions were necessary for a peaceful world. The world would be in ruins if the strong Mages could do whatever they pleased!

Thats the reason why the identities of the other four Angels arent disclosed to the public. They are far more special than normal Forbidden Mages. Not only would the Black Vatican fixate on them, but other countries and organizations might too, regardless of their intentions. As long as their identities remain a secret, they are free to visit every country and place, and their status wont affect their judgment. They can live with normal people and experience what they are going through. They only need to be merciless when its necessary, the Queen of the Netherworld continued.

Strange, why does the life of the four Angels sound like the kind of life I would want? Mo Fan wondered aloud.

Forget it, you are just a troublemaker! You will just throw a Forbidden Curse at anyone who dares to say a bad word about your girlfriends. Theres no way you could become an Angel. You are the last person that fits the role, the Queen of the Netherworld assessed him mercilessly.

So whos responsible for the operation that arrested Sister Qin? Was it one of the three Angels? Mu Ningxue asked intently.

The Queen of the Netherworld shook her head. She glanced at the crowded entrance of the Sacred City and said, Im afraid one of the four Angels is planning to go public.

Mo Fan was unfamiliar with the Sacred City, but the Queen of the Netherworld had been keeping an eye on it. She had yet to reach the Emperor-level, so she believed the Angels of the Sacred City were not interested in her, but her King was different!

The King would easily grab the Seven Angels attention, and one of them had to be behind the series of incidents that had happened.

However, the Angel who was responsible for the plan could no longer hide in the dark. He would have to disclose his identity to convince the Sacred City to take out the Undead King!

Was the Undead King a human or a demon?

If he was a demon, Qin Yuer would only be a nobody to him. The trial would take place and the Angel would not need to disclose their identity.

If he was a human, he would show up to save Qin Yuer. The Angel would be waiting for him in the Sacred City, and would reveal their identity to the public!

Shouldnt these Angels spend more time on better things? Speaking of which, would they also be keeping an eye on me because of my insane potential? Mo Fan had to ask.

The Angels wont waste their time on you even if you use the Demon Element, let alone your strength now. They only focus on Forbidden Mages and Emperor-level demon creatures. You are nowhere close to being a threat, the Queen of the Netherworld answered promptly.

Oh, should I work harder then? Mo Fan wondered aloud.

Its a huge world. There are many beings with strange powers. You can only make it onto the Judicators list for now, the Queen of the Netherworld sniffed at him.

Say, theres something I never told you. Im actually Gabriel, one of the Angels. Ive been watching you for a long time! Mo Fan said with a straight face.

The Queen of the Netherworld and Mu Ningxue both laughed. Gabriel is a woman. You might need to change your gender first, the Queen mocked him in delight.

Ugh...

The Dragon Light is ahead, I should hide for now, the Queen of the Netherworld said suddenly.

A brilliant light suddenly descended from the top of the Sacred City, as if the sun was focusing its attention on them. The whole sky was filled with a golden light emitted by the thing that resembled a huge planet engulfed in golden flames, freezing Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue in place.

What now?

They had thought the Orb on the tower of the Sacred City was something like a decoration. Why did it suddenly unleash such powerful magic? It was like God was examining them to pick up even the slightest amount malicious intent in their hearts!

Its said to be the eye of a golden dragon. Li Yue had regained control of her body. She was unaffected by the light, since she did not harbor any malicious intentions.

Golden dragon? A dragon of the Light Element? Its made from the real eye of a Light Dragon? Mo Fan asked, cold sweat on his forehead.

Mm, Li Yue nodded. She had learned a lot of things during her time at the Alps Institute.

No wonder she says the army of Undead would only kill themselves coming here. Mo Fan sighed heavily.
