……
Sik Town, located in the southeast of the kingdom, is an inconspicuous little town.
The small town, usually quiet with few outsiders, was unusually lively today, as it was the town's annual festival.
Not only residents of the town, but also many people from surrounding towns came.
Vendors set up stalls in the town square, and the streets and alleys were filled with cheerful sounds and festive decorations, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Nora, emerging from the dimly lit alley, blinked as she looked at the scene before her. "Are you sure that person would be here?"
“Of course, his hometown is in Sik Town, and he always returns here to participate in the festivals every year.” Elise’s tone was full of confidence.
As a veteran player, she knew every single character's habits inside and out.
Everyone was used to Elise's seemingly omniscient actions, but Nora still couldn't help but say, "If a fight breaks out here, won't it affect many people?"
"Don't worry, the battle won't affect these people."
"So, where should we look for him now?" Rumia looked around curiously. Although the town wasn't big, it was crowded with people, making it no easy task to find her target here.
"Of course we'll go to his house. He shouldn't be out yet. If things are resolved quickly, maybe we can even come back to participate in the festival."
As Elise spoke, she led the group toward the edge of town.
Because he often needs to conduct magical experiments, the protagonist's home is not in the town, but somewhere outside of it.
That place was sparsely populated, making it a very suitable battlefield and also a suitable place to build a tomb.
Volume 1: Chapter 725 Can Reconciliation Be Reached?
Keane felt uneasy when he woke up this morning.
Although it was just a feeling, every time this feeling arose, it meant that something big was about to happen.
Moreover, they all involve his own affairs.
He has relied on this feeling to escape several deadly threats.
I was originally planning to enjoy the festive atmosphere of my hometown, but now it looks like I'll have to make a run for it.
As a space-type mage, his greatest skill is running away.
As the feeling grew stronger, Keane opened the portal without hesitation. Just as he was about to step into the void, Keane seemed to sense something and quickly withdrew his left leg that had just stepped out.
There's something wrong with the void!
Without hesitation, he used short-range teleportation to leave the spot.
Just as Keane teleported away, a sharp sword aura swept across, severing the entire house in half.
Nora, hundreds of meters away, curled her lip, not expecting the other party's perception to be so sharp, dodging the attack the instant she drew her sword.
However, she didn't care. Instead, she transformed her weapon into the Storm Sword, with strong winds swirling around it. Nora seemed to transform into a shooting star as she rushed towards her target.
Seeing Nora enveloped in the gale, Keane finally realized that this was the crazy woman who had been chasing and attacking him earlier.
I never expected they would follow us all the way here.
How exactly did I expose my location?
There was no time for him to consider the problem. Keane simply reached out and made a grasping motion, and the space in front of him completely collapsed, revealing a deep void.
Anyone who has not mastered the power of space and is caught in it, even an eighth-order being, will perish.
However, Nora did not slow down and rushed straight into the void.
Just as Keane revealed a mocking expression, the space in front of him suddenly collapsed, and Nora, who was entangled in the gale, slashed out with her sword with all her might.
Keane instinctively tried to teleport away, but at that moment he discovered that his control over space was delayed.
Someone is interfering with him!
This reminded Keane of the little mouse that kept interfering with him during the battle to assassinate Elise.
Just as the greatsword was about to cleave Keane in two, a massive rock spear rose from the ground, interrupting Nora's attack.
Keane gave his opponent no chance to react. As countless rock spears rose from the ground, the gale transformed into wings, carrying Keane into the sky.
Seeing this from a distance, Elise raised an eyebrow. Based on her understanding of Keane, although he was a genius in spatial magic, he was completely ignorant of elemental magic.
However, at this moment, Keane displayed superb elemental magic skills.
Keane snapped his fingers as he flew high into the sky, and huge meteorites appeared and fell rapidly, covering Nora and the surrounding space.
After doing all this, Keane did not hesitate and immediately began long-distance teleportation.
Although he was distracted, given just a little time, he could easily escape the battlefield.
If the other side comes prepared, only a fool would stay here and fight head-on.
However, Keane then discovered that the surrounding space seemed to have frozen. This situation was not unfamiliar to him; someone had activated a space confinement device.
Just then, a fierce sword aura soared into the sky, sweeping away the meteorites, while several other sword auras flew towards him, directly blocking his space to dodge.
Without the slightest hesitation, Keane immediately entered wind elemental form, narrowly dodging the gaps in the sword energy.
He looked at the sword energy with some apprehension. Even if he were in his elemental form and were hit by these sword energies, he would probably lose half his life.
This crazy woman is even more terrifying than before.
But before Keane could even catch his breath, Rumia, in the distance, had already thrown the God-Slaying Spear.
The golden spear transformed into a meteor, piercing Keane with overwhelming force.
Pierced by the God-Slaying Spear, Keane was transformed into a bizarre doll, while he himself appeared not far away.
Seeing the doll being completely corroded in the blink of an eye, Keane didn't hesitate this time and used his trump card directly.
The ring on his hand emitted a dazzling light, and the previously stagnant space resumed its flow. A spatial rift was torn open, and Keane stepped into it without hesitation.
However, instead of teleporting away, Keane teleported himself in front of Nora.
He was greeted by a giant sword dance.
"You don't really think I'm the same as before, do you? I was just trying to lower your guard."
Sally didn't miss the chance to mock her opponent. After making the mockery, she ran away immediately. She dared not use her wheelchair tactic in front of someone who also possessed spatial power.
They were afraid that once the message was sent, it would never be sent back.
At this moment, Keane was fully focused on dealing with Nora's attack and had no time to distract Sally.
Having been tricked and thoroughly mocked, Keane's face turned visibly red.
The surrounding temperature suddenly began to rise, and a blazing ring of flames spread out from Keane's center.
However, Nora didn't care and didn't stop her sword dance even though she was burned.
Watching the increasingly rapid sword dance, Keane had no doubt that if he were caught in it, he would be instantly sliced into mincemeat.
To avoid that from happening, he had no choice but to activate the ring on his hand again and perform a short-distance teleportation.
Short-distance transmission is very fast and virtually impossible to interfere with.
Seeing that her opponent had created some distance, Nora did not hesitate to transform her twin swords into a spear and then hurled it at Keane.
At the same time, Elise's Arrow of Life also struck Nora, and her wounds healed at a visible speed as the life force flowed.
In addition, there were all sorts of blessings from Rumia, falling on him as if they were free.
Having barely managed to deflect the javelin attack, Keane looked at Nora, who had once again returned to full strength, and gave a smile that was more like a grimace: "Excuse me, can we reconcile?"
"From the moment you attacked Elise, you had no chance."
Nora's expression was cold. Her experience on the deserted island had made her even more determined about one thing... anything that threatened Elise must be eliminated!
A morbid madness flashed in Nora's eyes.
The god-slaying weapon, now back in Nora's hands, transforms into a knight's greatsword, its blade wreathed in brilliant golden light, exuding both holiness and destructive power.
Sensing the threat, Keane attempted to create a spatial collapse at Nora's location, but the spatial rift was repaired by Sally as soon as it appeared, giving him no chance at all.
Keane gritted his teeth, then took out a dagger from his spatial ring and slashed open the space around him.
At the same time, Nora swung her golden greatsword down with all her might, and a dazzling light surged and roared, engulfing everything in front of her.
Volume 1: Chapter 726 Aren't you sworn enemies?
Nora possesses great magic, but she rarely uses it.
She used to be able to use the Magic Impact Ring to accelerate, but since she got the God-Slaying Weapon, she has more ways to accelerate, so she uses the Magic Impact Ring less often.
Nora always felt that it was a waste to leave such a large amount of magic power unused.
So she went to Elise and asked the all-knowing Elise to think of a solution.
As a battle maniac, he naturally wants to utilize everything he can, including his own magic.
Although Elise always told her that learning a light spell would be enough, she still helped her find Flora and had Flora create a special sword-shaped magical artifact.
The effect of the magic device is very simple: it condenses and amplifies magic power in a very crude way, and then releases it instantly.
The more magic power is infused, the greater the power.
For archmages or magicians, it's not very useful, because magic or other magical artifacts are obviously more cost-effective.
But Nora is different; her magic doesn't have much of an effect, so it can all be poured into her.
Just like it is now.
When the light faded, the land in front of Nora was devastated. Keane's house was in ruins, and not even a trace remained after being swept away by the terrifying magical light beam.
Hiding behind the spatial rift, Keane observed everything around him, a flicker of fear crossing his eyes. y~four! 3. ×‖
If he hadn't used the ancient artifacts to create a spatial rift that enveloped him, he might be reduced to ashes by now.
However, he didn't have many uses left, and he had to find a way to escape before he ran out of uses.
Although that's what he thought, he noticed that there were two other people watching the show in the distance, who didn't really make a move.
There are two people in the open, but who knows how many more are secretly involved.
Faced with this situation, Keane was starting to despair.
However, he is not someone who gives up easily, and this was not the first time he had experienced such a desperate situation.
As if he had thought of something, a hint of hesitation flashed in Keane's eyes, but he still reached into his chest and took out a colored gemstone embedded in his chest.
When Elise saw what Keane was holding from a distance, she had a look of sudden realization: "I knew it! He suddenly had such superb elemental skills. It turns out he got the Heart of the Elements from somewhere."
The Heart of the Elements, when implanted into oneself through a secret method, can grant a person without magical talent the power to use the magic of the four elements, and give those who already possess talent even greater elemental affinity.
This thing was originally supposed to go to Harrison, the elemental mage who was tricked to death by Elise, but now it's in Keane's hands.
Elise had considered getting her hands on the Heart of the Elements, but the whole process was too complicated and there were no shortcuts, so she gave up.
It seems that some things will eventually end up in the protagonist's hands, even if they are not a good match.
Elise even suspected that even if she took the Heart of Elements in advance, Keane would still be able to obtain other fortuitous encounters to enhance himself.
The opponent's current strength is clearly much greater than before.
Just as Elise was deep in thought, Keane had already activated the Elemental Heart in his hand, and an incredibly terrifying wave of destruction began to spread from him.
He wanted to detonate the Elemental Heart to find a chance to escape.
Sally hid in the shadows, trying to steal the Elemental Heart from the other party, but just as she interfered with Keane, Keane could also interfere with her.
After several unsuccessful attempts, Sally glanced at Nora silently and found that Nora remained calm, as if she had no sense of danger at all.
Sensing Sally's gaze, Nora's lips curled up slightly: "Don't worry, someone will take care of it."
As Nora finished speaking, the Elemental Heart, which had been filled with an aura of destruction, suddenly dimmed.
Keane discovered that the earth element within the Heart of Elements had gone out of control, and the fusion and self-destruction of the four elements was forcibly stopped.
Elise, who had been floating in the air in the distance, had somehow landed on the ground, and the blessing of the Earth Goddess on her ankles was now shining brightly.
It was as if she had become the master of this land, and even her clear blue eyes seemed to have gained a divine radiance.
Having stolen a portion of the Earth Goddess's authority, she can temporarily control the earth element in this region, including the Elemental Heart.
As if she had anticipated Elise's move, Nora rushed to Keane's side the instant the self-destruction was stopped.
Although Keane was trying his best to resist, he was, after all, just a delicate mage, and could only be ravaged by a powerful swordsman like Nora.
In the blink of an eye, Keane had more than a dozen wounds on his body, and he eventually paid the price of losing an arm before he was able to distance himself from Nora again.
