SUPREME ARCH-MAGUS

Chapter 204: The Phoenix Curse

Following the princess, Kent reached the yin-yang phoenix gate, where the queen is waiting patiently for him. Seeing her son come back safely made her eyes turn moist.

After reaching the gate, the princess turned towards Kent and stared at him for a long time before taking out a bow from her storage ring.

"This divine rank bow has been resting on my beast abode for a thousand years. I hope you won't bring shame to this." The princess spoke while passing a fiery, crimson-red bow with golden string.

The entire bow has a scaled appearance, with a fiery blue glow cracking out of each gap. As he held the bow in the center, a warm breath circulated through his aura channels.

"THE PHOENIX CURSE"

Kent read the letter written on the head of the bow with a phoenix feather while observing every inch of the bow with curious eyes.

"Such a beautiful bow... But why did they call it the phoenix curse?" Kent asked while lifting his head from the bow.

The princess phoenix's face turned serious after hearing Kent's question. An image of a beautiful lady with a curvy body like a bow appeared in her thoughts. "Do you see that golden bow string?" The princess asked with a serious look.

"Of course, it's magnificent. It is adding life to this physical bow." Kent replied while caressing the bow string.

"That string is the heart vein of the first ancestor lady of the phoenix race. Among the 49 ancestors of my race, she is the first and last woman. When her partner died after making this bow, she left her physical body and entered this heart vein as a spirit.

My father said she would show up in spirit form if the wielder of this bow is worthy of her legacy. The bow was named the Phoenix curse because it took the life of my ancestor." The phoenix princess replied in a sad tone.

After hearing the story behind the bow, I felt more attached to it. Lifting the bow emotionally, Kent aimed at the sky and drew the bow string. Fiery wings formed on both sides of the bow, giving it a phoenix appearance.

After hearing his requirement, Soya ran away like a little girl, and Kent moved towards the central, large cauldron, which is at the height of two humans.

"What is Prince Eric doing here?"

"I never saw him practicing alchemy."

"I heard the Vermillion Bird clan is coming to attack our palace. But what is the prince doing here instead of preparing for us...?"

Several women who were working inside the alchemy room began gathering in a circle to see what the prince is doing. They never saw Prince Eric inside the alchemy room, and Eric didn't even know herb names. Everyone is curious to see what Eric is doing in the alchemy room.

Ignoring the onlookers, Kent used a levitating spell and rose to the side of the cauldron in the top position. The large alchemy plate, which has several herbs lined up, hovered beside him at arm's length.

Closing his eyes, Kent spelled the mantra and ignited the cauldron with phoenix flames. The onlooking ladies took a step back in horror as the cauldron blazed with flames, which appeared to touch the top.

While the cauldron began heating up, Kent closed his eyes and began reciting the brewing process of 'Nava Pashana' i.e., the nine poisons mentioned in the 'Tome of Destruction and Recreation' given by the poison sect princess.

As he was preparing for a large war with thousands of mages, Kent decided to prepare the poison arrows for the backup.
