Victor had barely finished speaking through the communicator before his vision blurred violently for a brief mont. A powerful wave of exhaustion crashed through his body with increasing intensity, causing every muscle to ache as though it had been torn apart repeatedly from the inside.
The mana pathways throughout his body burned with unbearable pain, as though molten tal had been forced directly through them. Even breathing carried a faint stinging sensation now.
The soldiers surrounding him imdiately noticed the change in his condition. Their previously relieved expressions quickly transford into anxiety after seeing the unnatural paleness spreading across his face. Several officers instinctively stepped closer while ergency personnel nearby hurried to prepare recovery equipnt.
"dical team is already on the way."
"Commander, please remain conscious."
"Should we prepare ergency stabilization dicine imdiately?"
Victor slowly raised one hand and weakly gestured for them to stop speaking. Although exhaustion was overwhelming his body, his expression remained relatively calm despite the damage he had clearly suffered.
"There is no need."
However, before anyone could continue the conversation further, the atmosphere across the battlefield suddenly changed.
A deep explosion echoed throughout the sky.
Terrifying pressure descended upon the military base without warning. The clouds above the battlefield violently split apart as though so invisible force had torn open the heavens themselves. A streak of darkness shot downward from the sky like a falling teor, carrying imnse magical fluctuations powerful enough to distort the surrounding atmosphere.
Every soldier instinctively raised their head toward the sky.
Then countless expressions froze simultaneously.
A woman slowly descended from the heavens while surrounded by rotating dark mana circles that continuously pulsed around her body. Her long ocean blue hair fluttered behind her beautifully while dense magical power radiated outward in waves capable of making the air itself tremble. The surrounding mana fluctuations beca unstable under her presence alone.
Even the remnants of corrupted energy left behind after the chira’s destruction instantly dispersed the mont she appeared.
Luke unconsciously swallowed hard.
"Sage Rank..."
Nobody dared continue speaking loudly afterward.
The pressure radiating from the woman was not intentionally oppressive. However, her existence alone naturally forced weaker beings into silence. Every soldier present could instinctively feel the overwhelming difference between themselves and soone who stood at the peak of human magic.
Diana slowly landed beside Victor with graceful movents. The mont her ocean blue eyes settled upon his exhausted appearance, her beautiful brows imdiately furrowed deeply with visible concern.
Without wasting even a second, she directly opened her spatial storage and removed a small golden potion bottle.
Gasps imdiately erupted throughout the surrounding area.
Golden Healing Elixir.
The highest grade recovery dicines available within the Federation. Even high ranking military officials rarely possessed access to treasures of that level because of their terrifying value and rarity.
Yet Diana uncorked the bottle without hesitation.
She supported Victor carefully before holding the potion toward him.
"Drink this imdiately."
Victor obediently accepted the potion without arguing. The mont the liquid entered his body, warm golden energy exploded throughout his mana circuits like a flood of healing light. The unbearable pain wracking his body rapidly faded while damaged muscles, torn tissues, and cracked mana pathways healed themselves at astonishing speed.
Several nearby soldiers stared blankly at the scene before them.
Others slowly revealed complicated expressions afterward.
An existence like Diana personally rushing across an active battlefield for Victor alone already carried terrifying implications. More importantly, she had casually used a treasure valuable enough to make powerful nobles fight desperately over ownership.
anwhile, Victor finally exhaled softly after enough strength returned to his body for him to stand properly again. Although so lingering exhaustion still remained, his condition had stabilized significantly compared to before.
He awkwardly rubbed the back of his neck afterward.
"Hello, Princess."
Diana imdiately narrowed her eyes at him.
"You dummy."
Her voice was not loud.
However, every soldier nearby instinctively lowered their heads even further after hearing her tone. Nobody dared interfere with the conversation between two individuals standing at such terrifying heights.
"How many tis are you planning to make worried?"
Victor coughed lightly before giving her a helpless smile.
"I am sorry about that."
His expression softened slightly afterward.
"I simply beca excited after finally being able to test my full power properly."
Then the amusent gradually disappeared from his face.
His eyes slowly beca serious again.
"However, we currently have sothing more important to discuss."
Diana imdiately noticed the change in his tone. The playful atmosphere surrounding them disappeared almost instantly as her own expression beca calr and more focused.
Victor quietly turned toward the command building.
"Please follow ."
Without waiting for a response, he began walking toward the building while Diana calmly followed beside him. The battlefield remained eerily silent during the entire walk. Not a single soldier dared utter another word while watching the two figures disappear toward the command headquarters.
anwhile, William had already returned from his investigation within the wilderness.
The massive swordsman stood near the ruined defensive wall while silently holding his greatsword over one shoulder. His expression remained unusually grim.
He had found absolutely nothing.
No traces.
No mana signatures.
No hidden enemies.
Nothing at all.
Which only made the entire situation even more disturbing.
William slowly shifted his gaze toward Victor’s retreating figure. Earlier, he had personally witnessed the aftermath of Victor’s attack against the chira. An A Rank monster had not rely been killed. It had been erased so completely that even residual mana contamination no longer existed afterward.
William had fought countless powerful enemies throughout his long life.
Yet for the first ti in decades, he genuinely felt unable to understand another human being.
Inside the command office, Victor quietly closed the door behind them. The isolated room imdiately beca silent as outside noise faded completely away. Diana remained standing nearby while carefully observing him with thoughtful eyes.
Victor slowly turned around afterward.
Their gazes t directly.
Deep purple eyes faced ocean blue eyes within the quiet office.
For several monts, neither of them spoke.
Then Victor finally broke the silence.
"Diana."
His voice carried unusual seriousness now.
"Can you create a spell for ?"
Diana blinked once in surprise.
"A spell?"
Victor slowly stepped closer toward her while maintaining calm composure.
"I want a spell capable of creating an elental avatar."
His purple eyes remained completely focused on hers as he continued speaking.
"I need complete movent control over the construct. The avatar should possess Sage Rank combat capability and remain active as long as my mana reserves and physical condition can sustain it."
The mont those words left his mouth, Diana’s expression completely changed.
Her heartbeat unconsciously accelerated.
A mythical spell.
This was no longer ordinary advanced magic.
Victor was requesting the creation of a true mythical class construct.
Such spells carried terrifying complexity, impossible requirents, and extrely dangerous consequences for the caster. Worse still, Victor himself possessed the terrible habit of completely ignoring common sense whenever experinting with powerful magic.
For a brief mont, Diana almost lost focus while staring into his deep purple eyes.
Then she quickly coughed lightly and forced herself to regain composure.
"No."
Her voice imdiately beca firm and cold.
"I will not allow it."
