Wizard Ston was only a business partner to the deity of Gosford. If Wizard Ston could not save himself during the battle, there would be a big chance that the deity of Gosford would find a chance to kill them both.
Wizard Morton looked at Wizard Ston with a pair of sharp eyes and said, "no matter who you called, you must die today."
Despite Wizard Morton being only a rank 11, and Wizard Ston being a rank 12 wizard, Wizard Morton was much more powerful than Wizard Ston in terms of spells. Wizard Ston did not know Wizard Morton's age. If he did, he would definitely not want to pick a fight with a wizard who was about to reach the end of his lifespan. These type of wizards had spent their entire life practicing spells, and they wouldn't leave their enemies behind. They were going to die soon anyway, so they might as well give it all they got and drag their enemy to hell along with them.
