"Ah, you think my attitude is a bit arrogant right now."
Gwendolin completely dominated the conversation.
After directly revealing Ronald's current mood, she continued:
"But in reality, what I'm saying is the truth."
"So whether you agree or not, you have to play this delightful ga with ."
"..."
Ronald was silent for a few seconds, then asked:
"Gwendolin, what 'ga' do you want to play?"
Gwendolin was very satisfied with Ronald's directness, so she also quite frankly said:
"Ronald, you can rest assured, this ti I'm making it a very fair ga."
"Using the original of your picture book maze as the foundation."
As soon as Gwendolin finished speaking, she actively raised Ronald's right hand, which hosted the original, and rubbed it against her face.
"Co, take it out."
"..."
The ability that he had never ntioned, nor even demonstrated, was just revealed by Gwendolin.
Faced with such a situation, Ronald's expression naturally did not look good.
But facing Gwendolin's invitation, he still summoned the original of the maze picture book.
Pa——
The imprint flashed, and the original imdiately appeared in the banquet hall.
Considering Gwendolin's attitude, none of the cult magicians dared to speak; their choice was to completely comply with Gwendolin's will.
The only one still contemplating other issues.
Perhaps it's just Bapulor, still pondering the details of his work as the Governor.
This is an unavoidable reality.
After all, one of the forr pursuits of this group of cult magicians was to summon great existences to the present world.
When this was in the planning stage, perhaps there were other explanations.
But now that Gwendolin has personally appeared here, they have no reason, or rather no possibility of arousing the will to resist!
Clang——!
However, the next second, a silver sword light appeared in the banquet hall.
Patricia made her move.
Through Ronald and Gwendolin's conversation, Patricia had fully understood the current situation.
She knew she was definitely no match for Gwendolin.
But when facing this fellow, she would never retreat just because of such a reason.
"Huh!"
So, accompanied by an exclamation, Patricia cut Gwendolin down to the ground with one sword.
This fellow wasn't cut by the sword blade imbued with extre cold magic power, but under such strong defensive capability, she was bizarrely knocked down to the ground by Patricia's strength.
And more unluckily, this fellow was sitting in Ronald's lap earlier.
As she fell back, her calf was caught right between Ronald's knees and the dining table, presenting a rather awkward posture.
"Ah ah ah! My leg, my leg!"
"..."
Screaming, Gwendolin's actual performance baffled everyone present.
Crying out like this, she extracted her calf, then stood up on one leg:
"Young lady, why are you like this?"
"Don't you know it's dangerous to not give a heads-up before attacking soone!"
"..."
It was the first ti Patricia encountered such an enemy.
The swordswoman furrowed her brow slightly, but soon stopped dwelling on these trivial matters. She directly raised her longsword beside her, pointing its tip at the newly stood Gwendolin, and imdiately thrust it forward.
Hiss——
Accompanied by Patricia's movent, a harsh sound rang out from her hand.
Just like that.
Patricia's attack abruptly stopped.
Gwendolin didn't make any moves, but as Patricia thrust her sword, the blade of her longsword started lting into liquid from the tip.
Between Patricia and Gwendolin, it was as if there was an invisible barrier. Any object crossing this boundary would directly change its state!
"..."
Patricia looked at her longsword.
Since she was attacking the enemy, of course, she had no plans of holding back.
So, under Patricia's extrely fast sword speed, the blade which was originally protected and reinforced by magic power, now remained only one-fifth of its original length.
Such a longsword...
Forget using it to attack the enemy, it couldn't even et the requirents for Patricia's swordsmanship!
"Why, are you not coming over for another try?"
At this mont, Gwendolin looked over with a provocative face, her face still showing the twisted pain, but now also filled with authoritative scrutiny:
"A warrior slaying a high entity must not hesitate when striking!"
"..."
No, I can't let things develop like this any longer!
Seeing the atmosphere in the banquet hall growing tenser.
Ronald knew he couldn't remain indifferent.
If this goes on, once Patricia suffers a genuine attack from Gwendolin...
By that ti, the only choice left for him might just be [Precession].
So Ronald also rose from his seat.
Then he picked up Gwendolin, interrupting the confrontation between the two, and activated a spell, directly taking Gwendolin high into the sky.
"..."
"Ronald, you really like that little girl, huh?"
Gwendolin didn't resist Ronald's action.
After being taken high up into the sky, she teased Ronald:
"But honestly, even if you take further away—even if I want to do sothing to her, it's aningless."
"Why talk about such nonsense?" Ronald didn't fall into Gwendolin's topic, he directly placed the maze picture book in front of them, "Since you're here for fun, why not just be straightforward."
Gwendolin stared directly into Ronald's eyes.
After the two exchanged looks, she spoke again:
"I don't dislike this straightforward personality either."
"But before the ga officially begins, I have an additional condition."
Ronald frowned:
"Go ahead."
Gwendolin smiled, as she shook her finger in front of Ronald and explained her words:
"I want to add a ti limit to this ga."
"The sooner you clear it—even before sunrise tomorrow—I will leave without another word, never to set foot in this world again."
"On the other hand, if you complete it after sunrise tomorrow but before sunset, I will leave so 'gifts' or matters based on the ti you spent."
Ronald's face darkened, and he quickly asked:
"What if I don't clear it before sunset?"
Gwendolin's face displayed a wild expression, her mouth almost touching Ronald's ear, speaking in an ambiguous and subtle voice:
"In that case, it naturally ans you failed the challenge."
"By that ti, I will take away everything you cherish, leaving behind empty ti, accompanied by endless void, to adorn your future~~"
