Buzz!
Astonishing magical power rippled from the grey-robed mage, and a two-meter-long silver spear rapidly materialized in mid-air.
"Silver Knight Lance," the grey-robed mage said indifferently.
The silver spear transformed into a silver lightning bolt, instantly hurtling forward.
The Surveillance Angel immediately raised the shield in its hand, blocking it in front, colliding with the Silver Knight Lance.
Rumble!
A piercing explosive sound erupted.
The tip of the Silver Knight Lance and the point of contact with the shield burst into intense sparks, but it only stalemated for less than a second.
Crack—
The shield in the Surveillance Angel's hand shattered, and the Silver Knight Lance pierced through the Surveillance Angel's body, blasting into the dense forest behind before disappearing.
Bang!
The Surveillance Angel was shattered by the blow, turning into white light particles and dissipating.
A strong wind swept through.
Causing Minori's priest's white robe to flutter loudly.
The Surveillance Angel, known for its defense among the fourth-tier angel summons, was actually defeated by the opponent's magic with a single strike.
Minori subconsciously narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Silver Knight Lance" is a fourth-tier magic-type spell that can inflict physical damage with silver properties, and also comes with the special effect of "penetration".
Even among fourth-tier spells, it is considered a relatively powerful attack spell.
But the opponent easily broke through the Surveillance Angel's defense with a spell of the same tier, either possessing some enhancement to this type of magic or possessing some ability to restrain it.
Also!
His initial guess was indeed correct, the grey-robed mage before him must be a powerhouse who has stepped into the Heroic Domain.
"Forgot to tell you, kid, I'm especially good at dealing with magic casters like you who specialize in summoning, especially when it comes to dealing with the holy attribute."
The grey-robed mage's cold and mocking voice sounded: "If your methods are only this much, then please go die."
"Don't worry, these two witches will go with you."
The magic power on the grey-robed mage surged again.
A serious expression had already appeared on Minori's face, this was his first time facing a powerhouse in the Heroic Domain.
And he was particularly unlucky, encountering the type that countered his current methods.
The opponents he had encountered before were not strong, so relying solely on "Angel Summoning" had been enough to cope, but when truly encountering this type of powerhouse.
The shortcoming of lacking methods after summoning an angel was exposed.
He had to summon a fifth-tier angel!
Without intending to expose his close-quarters combat abilities, Minori could only display summoning magic that had also reached the Heroic Domain.
Anyway, he was confident that he could kill the opponent, so it wouldn't count as an exposure.
Since he hadn't created a fifth-tier magic scroll yet, just as he was planning to expend his own magic power to summon, he suddenly reacted.
Wait!
Minori's pupils shrank, the opponent just said they would kill the Twin Witches?
He clearly remembered that four years later, when the Great Tomb of Nazarick descended, in this great swamp ruled by Ainz Ooal Gown, the Twin Witches were among the rulers, they didn't die.
What was going on!
Given the personality displayed by this grey-robed mage, it was absolutely impossible for him to let the Twin Witches go, so who saved the Twin Witches?
Minori subconsciously recalled the magical power fluctuation that flashed across the sky when he was fighting the Lizardmen.
That wasn't magic!
So it wasn't the means of the grey-robed mage before him, if there really was such a person, then they had been hiding in the shadows all along.
"Silver Knight Lance," the grey-robed mage's indifferent voice continued to come.
The silver spear materialized in the air!
The grey-robed mage saw Minori sitting blankly on Kuro, without any reaction, and sneered: "Were you frightened by having your strongest means easily defeated? Just another genius idiot living in the praises of others."
"Then die!"
Whoosh!
The Silver Knight Lance transformed into a silver lightning bolt, hurtling forward.
Only then did Minori raise his head, as if he had regained his senses, appearing to be too late to resist.
In the shadows reflected by the dense forest trees.
A mass of shadow suddenly wriggled, and then, this black afterimage burst out from the shadows, rushing towards Minori's direction at an extremely fast speed.
The speed was so fast!
That it actually reached Minori's front at the same time as the Silver Knight Lance that was shot over.
This black afterimage slammed fiercely into the Silver Knight Lance, causing the Silver Knight Lance that was originally blasting towards Minori to deviate from its original course.
Rumble!
The Silver Knight Lance grazed past the right side of Minori's ear and flew behind him, blasting a deep pit into the ground.
And this black afterimage also stood in front of Minori, fiercely looking at the grey-robed mage opposite.
At this time, Minori also clearly saw what the black shadow that had helped him block this attack was.
The opponent was a jet-black panther demon, even larger than Kuro, with four tails.
Seeing this suddenly appearing four-tailed black panther, the grey-robed mage's pupils suddenly shrank: "Magic Shield!"
A layer of magic protection invisible to the naked eye quickly enveloped the opponent's entire body.
At the same moment!
This magic shield seemed to have suffered some kind of attack, and the transparent magic barrier emitted a blue defensive luster on the left side of the grey-robed mage.
This was both a display of being attacked and also helping the caster confirm the direction of the attack!
The grey-robed mage quickly moved backwards to the right, raising his hand and aiming it in the left direction: "Fear!"
The originally empty left direction suddenly rippled with an invisible layer, and a huge lizard appeared in the forest.
It looked very similar to a Petrifying Lizard, but this lizard was deep blue all over.
"Magic Detection!"
The grey-robed mage saw this blue giant lizard, his cold face both surprised and angry, the situation before him indicated that this demon had been here for a long time.
He hadn't noticed it all along!
The light of detection magic flickered, but there was no feedback at all.
"Get out here! Stop hiding" The grey-robed mage once again placed a layer of magic shield on his body, and shouted coldly.
The air became quiet again at this moment.
The Verdant Witch and the Mist Witch had quietly crawled up from the ground, with frightened expressions on their faces, cautiously moving backwards into the distance.
Whether it was Minori or the grey-robed mage, they naturally noticed the little movements of the Twin Witches in the first instance, but both of them were already unable to attend to these witch sisters at this moment.
Minori's expression was also faintly unsightly at this moment.
Someone had been hiding in the shadows all along, but he hadn't noticed it at all.
Rustle rustle ~
Just then.
A footstep came from a position not far from Minori, as if it had appeared out of thin air.
Minori immediately turned his head and looked in this direction.
Only to see!
A man with golden hair all over, deep red pupils, draped in a simple black cloak, and a face full of gentle smiles walked out of the forest.
The most eye-catching!
Was the owl with deep red pupils on this man's shoulder, the animal pupils of which were faintly emitting a dark red light.
This blond man—
The first instant Minori saw the other party, his pupils suddenly contracted, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
Why was the other party here!
