There must be other collaborators, Russell believes.

(It seems I underestimated them.)

At the same time, he was filled with excitement. Russell didn't understand what this meant. But one thing was certain -

"Okay. If you want to beat me, go ahead!"

As he said the last words, a dark magic blew from Russell's side. Victory or death. There was no other choice.

Xu Zhen and the others also felt this, although unconsciously. They had already plunged into a battle that they could not recover from.

“Hoohoohoohoo!!”

Foreo, who had transformed into a giant quadruped, roared loudly, almost blowing away the surrounding bushes and leaves, but Russell just smiled mockingly and remained unmoved.

Russell's eyes widened. His red gaze locked onto Foreo, as if an interesting prey had jumped into his field of vision.

At this time, Lati also immediately absorbed the magic power and activated the conversion ability. Perhaps because he was more devoted, the breath of magic was stronger than usual.

"I want to remind you that this time will not be like before..."

Letty muttered as she prepared—

“There will be different results!”

She stomped the ground hard and rushed towards Russell. A huge explosion sounded in the forest. Ridley moved along the trees and immediately landed on a tree trunk when he heard the sound.

Although it was dark, he could still see what was happening in that direction from a distance. He frowned slightly and then started to move again.

(Be careful, Xu Zhen!)

Ridley prayed for him heartily as he moved between the trees.

"bring it on!!"

With a shout, the flaming sword swung down, and the forest bear was engulfed in flames. The slashing and the explosion intertwined, and the forest bear was killed instantly.

Greg wiped the sweat from his forehead and sheathed his sword. At this time, Ceci and a young swordsman came over.

"Well done Greg! We just finished the battle too." The young swordsman raised his right thumb with a big smile on his face.

"Oh, I didn't expect the young lady to be so outstanding. I really didn't expect it." The young swordsman turned to Ceci, who instantly blushed like a red lotus and shook her head vigorously: "That's not the case!"

“No, no, it’s true. Thanks to you, I saved a lot of effort. I even think you should officially join our team.”

Hearing this, Ceci became flustered again: "Oh, really! You always joke..."

"What if this isn't a joke?" Greg's calm voice broke Ceci's barely maintained smile. Then he slowly raised his head and looked at Ceci with a serious look.

"I agree. Ceci, as the captain, I invite you again. I hope you can officially become our partner." Ceci was stunned by Greg's invitation. She felt confused. She never expected to be invited to such a place.

"Your strength is real. And you have great potential. Are you willing to join us as an adventurer?"

In other words, she was recognized. Cece understood this, but she was still confused. Then the young swordsman spoke.

"If it's someone of the same sex, it's okay, right? Because the girls who help with cooking in the village are waiting. There's also a boy who's injured and resting in bed, but he'll recover soon."

While making his own comments, the young swordsman turned his gaze to Greg. “Will Greg communicate with the companions waiting in the village?”

"Of course. As a leader, that's what I should do."

The young swordsman also agreed, and Greg nodded firmly. The rest depended on Ceci's answer. But Ceci didn't answer immediately, she was just a little overwhelmed.

Greg, who couldn't bear to watch, smiled bitterly and said to Ceci: "Forget it. Ceci, you should also think about it for a while. After all, after this battle, we don't have to set off immediately."

“…I understand. I’ll think about it carefully.”

"what!"

Ceci answered reluctantly, and Greg nodded happily. Just then, a huge explosion was heard nearby.

"What, what happened!" The young swordsman held the hilt tightly and stood up alertly. At this time, the voices of the adventurers passing by could be heard.

"It's best not to go over there. That monster user is fighting Russell!"

"Hey, that's not good. Is he going to die?"

"If you don't want to die, we don't care. Just leave now."

"……Too."

As they said that, the adventurers hurriedly ran towards the village. After listening to everything they said, Greg shook his chin and said, "The boy who is the monster user... is he the guy we talked about at that time?"

“Is that guy fighting Russell right now?”

"Seems to be."

In response to the young swordsman's question, Greg's answer was a little vague and he seemed a little anxious.

"That, that! Mr. Greg!" Ceci suddenly shouted with a determined expression.

"You want to help too? That's what I was going to say." Greg said while scratching his head.

"If it's the boy's situation, I've heard some of it. After all, I was the one who gave him the opportunity to go out yesterday."

“Then let’s go. If we delay too long, it will be too late and it won’t be fun.”

"……OK."

The moment Greg nodded, another explosion was heard. The three of them calmed down again and ran at full speed towards the direction of the explosion.

------------

The battle between Xu Zhen and others continued. They were clearly at a disadvantage last time, but this time they showed more tenacity. This was all thanks to Fuleo. Although he was hit by all of Russell's magic attacks, he was hardly hurt.

Now, Fouleo has gathered a lot of magic power, causing his form to change drastically. If you imagine it as clay made of magic power, it will be easy to understand.

In other words, his magic acted as a powerful armor. Foreo was invulnerable to Russell's magic precisely because he had gathered such a powerful magic.

However, Lati's transformation ability is different. He directly absorbs magic power into his body as energy.

In other words, she only temporarily changed her body, so she was not in a state of being equipped with armor. Once she was attacked by Russell's magic, she would be hit hard.

Until now, the importance of defense has been limited to Loppel's abilities. Now, both attack and defense roles have been added so that Lati can also find opportunities to counter powerful attacks.
