The Final Confrontation: Wizard Of Shadows After four intense weeks of unyielding learning, Albert's determination grew, fueled by a thirst for vengeance against those who had taken his parents from him. He began tracing the origins of the dark spell that had claimed his family, and it led him to a startling revelation. The mastermind behind it all was none other than his old teacher, Valken.
Valken had always been fiercely opposed to Thomas's decision to assist the magical creatures. He had long harbored a desire to kill them, considering them a threat to the wizarding world. It was Valken who had arranged the attack on the tower when Albert had dared there.
Years ago Valken came into Albert’s life
aiming to establish a connection with Albert, to gain his trust, and ultimately make him his unwitting servant. Albert came from a lineage of powerful wizards, a lineage that had produced some of the most influential and formidable magic wielders the world had ever seen. But when Albert left Wizardiake at a young age, Volken’s sinister plans were prevented, leaving him to bide his time, waiting for the right moment to enact his dark ambitions.
As Albert stood there, his newfound dark spells at the ready, a surge of determination coursed through his veins. He believed he could confront Valken, the servant of the dark wizard who had taken his father from him. With a heart pounding in his chest, he rushed towards Valken's house, intent on exacting revenge for the pain that had haunted him for years.
But what Albert didn't realize was how powerful Valken had become during the past years. When he finally laid eyes on Valken, his emotions were a noisy mix of anger, fear, and determination. In the heat of the moment, Albert cast a basic dark spell, "Vulnus Inflictus (basic spell of wounds)" aiming his wand at Valken, and wounds appeared on Valken's body.
Valken responded swiftly, unleashing a potent spell, 14
The Final Confrontation: Wizard Of Shadows
"Vulnera Cruorosum (strong dark spell of wounds)" causing immense wounds. Albert attempted to dodge, but the spell struck his right arm, inflicting a painful wound.
Then Valken again cast a spell “Mors Ultima (dark spell for death)”, but Albert missed the spell.
Hopeless and in pain, Albert managed to cast "Tortura Obscura (spell for torture)" a spell designed for torture. Electricity surged towards Valken, momentarily torturing him. Albert believed he had the upper hand, but he had underestimated his adversary.
Valken, in an instant, jumped back to his feet and cast
"Manus Vincula (spell used to forcefully remove wand)" is a dark spell that forcibly disarmed Albert. The young wizard's wand was torn from his grasp.
Now defenseless, Albert watched as Valken summoned
"Radix Morsus (spell to cast sinister roots)" sinister roots emerging from the earth and capturing him. The roots began to tighten their grip, slowly suffocating him.
Valken taunted, "Your death will be swift and painful, as was your father's."
With a flick of his wand, Valken unleashed the roots' deadly embrace, and Albert's vision blurred as the sinister roots continued their continuous assault.
Suddenly, the weather took a dark turn. Clear skies turned noisy, and out of thin air, the Witch appeared, the same Witch, who kept Albert with him for these years and taught him spells. She swiftly cast "Mortisomnium (spell to make someone blind for some time)" to blind Valken briefly and 15

As Albert, injured and confused, stumbled away, the Witch urged him to flee to the Dark Forest for some time. In the midst of her own fierce struggle against Valken, the Witch was struck by a devastating
"Mors Ultima (spell of death)" Blood spilled from her mouth as death claimed her. There was no way to save her, but she fought valiantly until her last breath, determined to shield Albert from harm.
In a Hopeless bid to protect Albert, she cast a spell to shield him and another to give him some memories.
Injured Albert runs toward Dark Forest and continuously ponders back and watches how the Witch is fighting for her.
Then suddenly, the sound of casting a
spell stopped, while running to the Dark Forest, Albert saw the Witch, thinking she must killed Valken, but it was not the same, as what Albert was expecting.
Valken had killed Witch. The face of the Witch was toward Albert, seeing him when death was here to collect her, the last movements of her lips were like she was saying, “Albert, I am always with You, No one can hurt You. Albert I am always with You!” and then…
Now Valken started casting spells toward Albert, but he was almost near the Dark Forest, so Valken’s spell didn’t hit Albert.
Albert reached the Dark Forest, burdened with the guilt that the Witch had sacrificed herself because of him. He shouldn't have confronted Valken, and she should not have followed him. The echoes of her final words,
"Albert, I am with you. No one can hurt you," haunted his every step as he entered the forbidden haven of the Dark Forest…
