Chapter 320 Kicking Down A Door



The area outside the cell's molten walls wasn't quite what Toz expected. But when he thought more deeply about it, he realized that it made more sense than keeping armed guards at the ready. With the security of the cell, it was pretty unlikely for anyone to break out, so having guards constantly on standby would only be a waste of resources. Instead, it would be a lot more efficient to increase the cell's defenses to prevent the prisoner from breaking out by themselves or with help from the outside.

The cell Toz was in when accompanied by the seal on his mana pool, would prevent the prisoner from escaping by themselves. And the area outside the cell prevented or slowed down anyone else from helping Toz break out.

The cell floated in the middle of a large empty space, only connected to the next layer of walls with a single stone bridge.

The stone walls and floor of his cell were continuously melting and dripping down to the bottom of the large space, even after he stopped channeling his magic. Toz jumped over to the bridge right as a feeling of fatigue overcame his body and mind.

Since he wasn't under immediate threat, despite breaking out of his cell, Toz spent a few moments figuring out why and recovering from the burst of fatigue. Because the fatigue also affected his mind, Toz naturally began by looking inside it, where he found a faint clone.

Piecing together what happened after noticing the clone's look and the quickly retreating remnants of fire mana inside his mind, Toz realized that the clone was the reason why he had managed to increase the temperature of his flames, seemingly without limit. He had been dedicating all his concentration toward his fire magic, so he couldn't be sure what happened in detail, but Toz began thinking that the clone was probably one of the best things to happen to him during his path of magic.

After he rested up and recovered slightly, Toz stood up and began crossing the bridge. As he walked, he looked around at the large room that housed his cell. There wasn't originally any source of light inside the room, but the molten rock from Toz's cell helped him see the room.

Not that there was a lot to see, even with the red light from the molten rock. It was a large, dark cube that stretched ten meters beyond his cell in every direction. The only exception to the dark grey, almost black, walls was the light grey door at the end of the bridge.

Toz tried attacking the walls with a lightning bolt and a javelin of metal, but neither of them left even a hint of a scratch on the wall. It seemed like the dark grey walls focused on absolute defense while the cell walls prioritized suppressing mana and magic.

It was an extravagant and laborious design. Toz got a little curious as to why he had been put in such a maximum security prison when it seemed like Yill wanted him for something. Did she think it was necessary to go to such lengths in order to suppress his spirit and make him more willing to submit? And did she think so highly of his abilities that security measures at this level were necessary?

Toz shrugged since he couldn't figure out an answer, and he would either find out sooner or later, so it didn't matter, especially when he had more pressing concerns. If the cats were trapped in similar cells, he would naturally have to get them out of there. And while he was on it, he would also have to find Brunswick, all the while hoping not to stumble on Yill.

Toz didn't rush across the bridge since he hoped to recover as much as possible of his mind's energy before he left the room. But he also couldn't take it too slow in case reinforcements were already on their way. He eventually reached the door.

The single stone door was large enough to be misunderstood as a double door.

Toz didn't immediately reach out to open it. There hadn't been traps or any other defensive measures along the bridge, but that didn't mean that the door wouldn't be different. Toz blinked, activating the mana vision as he looked at the door.

Although his clone was still slightly weak, it seemed like it became easier to use mana vision each time he activated it.

Toz looked at the door with his mana vision and was slightly surprised, not because it didn't have any mana or enchantments. But because all of them were on the other side of the door.

His mana vision couldn't see through objects if they were too thick or dense, but the door was just thin enough that the mana pervading it on the other side leaked through, showing Toz how heavily enchanted it was.

But if the enchantments were concentrated on the other side, it was evident they were meant to defend against attacks or intrusions from outside, not an escapee from within. Considering the cell's structure and the design of the imprisonment, Toz realized it was pretty reasonable.

The cell to contain the prisoner, the dark grey walls, and the door to keep out intruders aiming to break the prisoner out. Considering Toz ruled Pirate Haven, it wasn't completely unexpected for Yill, or whoever it was, to expect someone to come and help him. Unfortunately, they didn't count on Toz surpassing their expectations and breaking out on his own.

Since the door was only meant to keep people out, It wouldn't be able to stop Toz.

Toz held up his hand to the door and used the spell he was coming to like more and more, Dissolution.

The enchantments probably would have been able to block the spell if he had tried to use it against the door from the other side, but now that his hand was already behind the enchantments, they weren't able to defend against the attack coming from the wrong direction.

Dissolution's effects quickly spread through the enchantments, tearing them apart by dissolving the mana and the door's surface. Unfortunately, the door was too sturdy and filled with mana for Toz to dissolve it completely with his spell.

As soon as enough enchantments were destroyed, Toz lifted a leg and kicked the door that was twice as tall as him and as wide as three men off its hinges.
