"Swish!"
In the room as spacious as a hall, the uninvited young girl first waved the jade branch in her hand, and then chanted the incantations at an astonishing speed.
The chanting speed could completely rival that of the Polluted Immortal Spirit, Aleye’s ultra-high-speed chanting.
During the chanting process, the mysterious treasure in the girl’s hand continuously emitted a peculiar glow, surprisingly accelerating her chant.
Thus, in a matter of seconds, Reiger witnessed the girl effortlessly unfolding several spells.
The first was a shield bursting with lightning, enveloping the girl completely.
Then, countless magic missiles emitting a ghostly glow appeared out of thin air, each bursting with lightning.
Afterward, a light mist similarly appeared from nowhere, surrounding the girl completely.
"Go!"
After completing these, the girl raised the jade branch in her hand, suddenly pointing in Reiger’s direction.
In the next mont, the countless magic missiles suddenly shot out.
They weren’t ordinary shots.
Perhaps the girl used another spell for acceleration, as the lightning crazily surged along the magic missiles, granting them lightning-like speed, each turning into indistinct electrical light, shooting toward Reiger with astonishing speed.
"————"
Seeing this, Yuloli beside him tensed up, instinctively ready to rush out and intercept all those lightning missiles.
But before that could happen, Reiger stopped her.
"It’s alright, I’ll handle it myself."
Intrigued by the girl’s performance, Reiger stopped Yuloli while extending his hand.
"[Magic Disassembly]."
An invisible wave of magic power surged out, enveloping the incoming barrage, intending to dismantle them.
"Don’t even think about it!"
The girl recognized Reiger’s intention, waving the jade branch in her hand.
"Boom!"
Just like the previous ti magic, Reiger’s [Magic Disassembly] was shattered, the invisible wave of magic power breaking like glass, disappearing without a trace.
"Can’t use magic?"
Reiger raised an eyebrow, clenched his palm, and the Hermit instantly fell into his hand with its scabbard from the Dinsional Magic Cube Storage Space.
The lightning missiles finally reached Reiger in no ti, defiantly crashing towards him.
However, just as the barrage of lightning missiles was about to hit Reiger, a vortex-like blade wind appeared.
"Moon Breathing·Five Forms·Moon Essence Disaster Vortex!"
No need to draw his sword, Reiger rotated his body on the spot, creating a massive vortex-like blade wind around him, confronting the incoming barrage.
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom...!"
Imdiately, the countless incoming lightning missiles all struck the suddenly erupting vortex-like blade wind, first being repelled and then shredded by the nurous crescent moon blades within, exploding one by one.
anwhile, Reiger switched breathing techniques, his entire body bursting with electrical light, shooting out with extre speed, rushing towards the girl.
"Thunder Breathing·Fourth Form·Distant Thunder!"
This technique unleashed a burst of lightning from the body, advancing towards the enemy at extre speed, followed by wielding the blade for a lightning-fast slash.
With Reiger’s current level, using such a high-speed assault technique would make it impossible even for a veteran Sword Saint to react promptly.
Although the girl might be a powerful magician, her reaction skills could never surpass a veteran Sword Saint’s, and she naturally couldn’t respond to Reiger’s assault.
Of course, there’s no need for her to react.
"Hiss..."
As Reiger rushed into the light mist surrounding the girl, the mist began to stir, seemingly like a toxic substance corrosively affecting the human body, causing Reiger’s skin to smoke as if burned.
"Huh?"
Reiger was slightly surprised, subconsciously halting his assault, gently leaping out of the mist’s range.
"Here, is it...?!"
At that mont, the girl finally caught sight of Reiger’s figure, seeing him leap out of the mist. Without hesitation, she unleashed her magic.
"Bang!"
In an instant, a burst of air appeared around Reiger, engulfing him.
This sudden explosive blast was quite powerful, far stronger than the magic the girl had used before pulling out the jade branch.
If Reiger were still Lv.7 now, without using a magic shield, he might indeed have been hurt.
Fortunately, Reiger was now Lv.8, with an "Endurance" parater astoundingly high, surpassing even Ota and Grace probably. Combined with the magic resistance garnt comparable to second-level armor, he withstood the powerfully stunning explosive blast.
"Thunder Breathing·Five Forms·Hot Realm Thunder!"
Erging from the explosion, Reiger directly drew his blade and decisively slashed, unleashing a blazing lightning-like slash towards the girl.
Yet, this strike was fruitless as well.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by a roar, the lightning-like slash hit the girl but was blocked by the lightning shield on her, shattering on the spot, dissipating into thin air.
"Not bad."
This ti, Reiger looked at the young girl with newfound respect.
In his view, the girl’s series of responses could be described as perfect to the extre.
The lightning shield she deployed was likely a type of magic dedicated to countering physical attacks, with formidable defensive capabilities. Even those stronger than the girl couldn’t easily penetrate that layer of physical protection to harm her beyond the shield.
The mist of light was ant to prevent enemies from getting close, probably an interference-type magic capable of causing corrosive damage to the body.
Adding to that was the jade branch treasure that could nullify all of an enemy’s magic power, placing the girl in an unassailable position.
Unable to get close, and ranged physical attacks would be blocked by the lightning shield.
While magic attacks were entirely ineffective, utterly useless.
Wasn’t this just completely helpless?
"It seems that half-hearted attacks are utterly useless against you."
Reiger, facing such a tricky situation, remained utterly composed, causing the girl’s face to darken.
"I’ll give you a chance. Cancel the contract between you and the princess and release my companion. If you do that, I’ll stop."
The girl spoke coldly.
In response, Reiger also casually tossed out a sentence.
"I’ll give you a chance too. Surrender now, and you’ll suffer less."
Upon hearing this, the girl’s brows raised sharply as she imdiately started chanting magic again, conjuring missile after missile and adding lightning, creating a screen full of lightning missiles.
This woman was undoubtedly a magician specialized in both transformation and interference magic, even extending sowhat into manipulation and construction types.
Though magicians on the continent typically had aptitude for all four major systems of magic, they usually specialized or beca proficient in only the one for which they had the highest aptitude, perhaps dabbling in a second system. But this girl was different. Even with systems for which she had lower aptitude, she appeared to have studied them, using them to support her primary magic system, making her spells stronger and more powerful.
From these magic application thods, it was evident that this girl ca from a different path than the mainstream magicians of the current continent, possessing a more complete, comprehensive, and fuller magical heritage.
One could say that if other magicians witnessed the thods by which she cast spells, they would be stunned and a huge sensation would arise in the magical world.
Facing such a magician with advanced magic application thods, anyone else would likely feel at a loss, powerless, and be firmly suppressed by her.
Even soone like Flon would feel the sa.
Unfortunately, the girl encountered the most unconventional person in this world.
"[Self-Ti Acceleration]."
Before the opponent released those screen-filling lightning missiles, Reiger activated his magic first.
Imdiately, the world around beca viscous, and Reiger seed to enter another world, his own ti beginning to accelerate.
In the current mont, everything outside appeared as if it had been slowed down to Reiger, the flow of ti becoming incredibly slow.
"......!"
The girl seed to realize sothing, anxiously wanting to wave that jade branch to break Reiger’s magic.
But her actions appeared excruciatingly slow in Reiger’s eyes.
So, Reiger first took a step and rushed into the mist of light.
The mist of light tried to erode him, but its speed had also slowed to an extre and it hadn’t yet taken full effect before Reiger broke through, arriving before the girl.
"[Distort Old Truth, Create New Life — Lost Truth]."
Reiger activated his transformation magic, causing the transparent magic array to shatter into countless shards, floating around him.
"[Maximum Enhance·Instant Decision]."
The next second, Reiger unleashed magic infused with void attributes.
[Instant Decision], a tenth-tier magic, belongs to those with top-tier destructive power among all tiered magic, rendering any defense useless in the face of this attack.
Faced with power capable of cutting through space, even the girl’s strong lightning shield couldn’t withstand it, not to ntion [Instant Decision] was magic, not a physical attack.
Of course, the [Instant Decision] Reiger cast currently had also been altered under the influence of the void attribute.
It was no longer released in the form of magic but was attached like augntation magic, adhering to Reiger’s sword, causing the black blade Inertia’s blade to display a space-distorting ripple.
In the world of the Overlord, Reiger once thought of researching the prototype of [Instant Decision] to develop a skill — [Dinsional Slash].
That was a super-tier final special skill only players with the warrior class’s strongest profession "World Champion" could learn at level 100 in the ga "YGGDRASIL".
The tenth-tier magic [Instant Decision] is a deteriorated version of [Dinsional Slash].
And under the condition of activating [Lost Truth], the [Instant Decision] with void attributes acquired the nature of augntation magic, capable of adhering to weapons for slashing.
In other words, after activating [Lost Truth], [Instant Decision] restored to [Dinsional Slash], the warrior class’s ultimate skill, not only possessing unbeatable magical attack power but also acquiring an unbreakable physical attack capability.
"Clang!"
Along with the bright sound of a sword, a slash capable of cutting through space blossod in Reiger’s hand.
The flow of ti returned to normal.
The girl’s movents also quickened, about to swing down the jade branch in her hand.
But before that, the space-severing slash descended, cutting through the lightning-flashing shield and the girl’s seemingly defensive clothing, finally landing on her with a look of shock in her eyes.
"Splat!"
The instant the sound of fabric tearing echoed, blood sprayed into the air.
"Bang!"
The light mist surrounding the area exploded in an instant, transforming into a gust of air, enveloping the entire room, lingering for a long ti.
