Another World: The Failed Magician

In the instant Lu Xuan was slashed, he caught a glimpse of Will out of the corner of his eye.

Before he knew it, the red-haired boy had gotten close to him.

Will used his longsword to stab Lu Xuan directly in the throat.

The fate of a mage who is caught in close combat by a martial artist is predictable.

But at this moment, Will felt no joy of victory; instead, a strong sense of unease welled up within him. From the moment he approached Lu Xuan, he had been observing him.

The other person did not show any panic or fear on their face immediately upon seeing him.

Lu Xuan's face remained calm as still water, as if the other party had known about everything he had done beforehand.

At this moment, the black and white wings on the back of the Chaos Gate statue suddenly unfolded, and black and white flames appeared on its hands respectively.

Will felt the longsword in his hand begin to go out of control. The longsword, which was originally aimed at Lu Xuan, suddenly changed direction and slashed at the Chaos Gate statue.

The Chaos Gate slammed into Will like a clenched fist.

Will tried to escape but found that his body was out of his control.

Fell into a trap!

The other party deliberately created a weakness for us.

"transposition!"

The girl holding the giant shield suddenly shouted.

As the sound faded, it became clear that she and Will had switched places.

The girl gripped the giant shield tightly with both hands and took the punch from the Chaos Gate statue.

"boom!"

After a violent impact, the girl was blasted to the ground, leaving a huge crater. But the Chaos Gate statue did not let the girl go.

It reached out and grabbed at the girl on the ground.

The girl tried to dodge but found herself paralyzed and unable to move.

Just as the giant hand was about to grab the girl, a dark shadow flashed by and carried the girl with the giant shield away from the pit.

At that moment, a dark rain of arrows swept towards Lu Xuan.

But just as the rain of arrows was about to touch him, the arrows suddenly went out of control and all turned to attack the Chaos Gate statue.

The rain of arrows fell on the heavy armor, causing no real damage other than making a series of impact sounds.

The girl holding a bow and arrow had a furrowed brow.

It seems that unless the Chaos Sect is dealt with, they won't be able to harm Lu Xuan.

The girl dressed in black night clothes has now brought back the girl who was holding the giant shield.

The girl was covered in wounds, but she still stumbled to her feet.

Will stared at the enormous monster, and his hand, which had been gripping the longsword tightly, began to tremble.

The Chaos Gate statue, something he thought only existed in rumors, turned out to be incredibly terrifying.

Is this monster truly defeatable? Just one encounter has pushed me to this point.

Just as his resolve began to waver, the girl, who was originally covered in wounds, slowly walked to his side and grasped Will's sword-wielding right hand with her own scarred right hand.

Will turned to look at the girl.

The girl didn't speak, but looked at him with a determined gaze.

"Well, I see."

Will gripped his longsword tightly again, and the blade now emitted a faint red glow, as if in response to Will's determination.

Will looked up at the Chaos Gate statue again, and this time, there was no fear in his eyes.

Seeing the fist of Chaos Gate coming at him, he did not choose to dodge. A red flame ignited around him, and the flame spread from his body to his longsword.

Faced with a fist larger than his own body, Will gripped his crimson longsword, leaped up, and slashed at it.

The fiery red sword light collided with the fist of the Chaos Gate.

Will staggered back several steps, but he did manage to block the attack from the Chaos Gate statue.

The fist of the Chaos Gate statue turned bright red, as if it had been burned by a blazing flame.

Before Will could even rejoice at the success of his attack, white flames suddenly erupted from the right hand of the Chaos Gate statue.

The right hand, which had turned bright red, returned to normal in an instant.

Upon seeing this, Will quickly looked at the girl behind him holding a longbow.

The girl's eyes always shimmered with a pale blue light.

The girl's forehead was covered in sweat.

"I can't see its weakness. This monster has no magic or fighting spirit at all!"

The girl's tone was somewhat desperate.

Based on their past experience in fighting monsters, they would have Will and Carly distract the monsters first, while Carly would harass them and use her special talent to observe the fluctuations in the monsters' magic power and fighting spirit to discover their weaknesses.

But the monster before them was beyond reason; it had no magic or fighting spirit at all.

"It seems we have no choice but to confront them head-on."

"But…"

Before the girl could finish speaking, Will raised his longsword and charged toward the Chaos Gate statue.

"Believe him."

After saying something to the girl, Carly, who was holding a giant shield, rushed towards the Chaos Gate statue with Will.

"What a mess."

Despite saying this, the girl still drew her longbow to its fullest extent and aimed it at the Chaos Gate statue.

Will quickly ascended into the air, his longsword transforming into a crimson flame, and slashed towards the head of the Chaos Gate statue.

Chaos Gate seemed about to raise its fist to meet the attack.

"Mocking isn't your exclusive right."

Carly planted the giant shield on the ground, and then something like a chain connected her to the Chaos Gate.

The fist of the Chaos Gate statue changed direction and smashed towards Carly instead.

Will seized the opportunity and poured all his fighting spirit into his longsword.

The originally crimson flames transformed into a phantom in mid-air.

The phantom figure gripped a sword with both hands, striking the same pose as Will.

As Will swung his sword at the Chaos Gate statue, the phantom in mid-air also slashed at the Chaos Gate statue.

The two crimson sword lights merged into one, transforming into a scalding giant wave that surged straight towards the head of the Chaos Gate statue.

Lu Xuan felt a deadly threat and placed his hands, which were covered in black and white gloves, on the ground.

The magic in the air surged toward the Chaos Gate like a tidal wave.

Just as the magic was about to make contact with the Chaos Gate statue, a blue arrow pierced the sky and appeared between the two.

Then, a turquoise barrier appeared out of thin air, blocking all the magic power that was originally surging towards the Chaos Gate statue.

"Hmph, I don't believe you have no flaws."

The girl behind her was trembling as she held the longbow, which eventually fell to the ground.

It seems that the attack just now exhausted all her strength.

The girl stared intently at the air in mid-air.

A crimson shockwave struck the head of the Chaos Gate statue.

Fine cracks appeared on the black and white face.

The Chaos Gate statue was also slammed to the ground by the impact.

Will seized the opportunity and plunged his longsword deep into the head of the Chaos Gate statue.

As crimson sword energy continued to flow into the head of the Chaos Gate statue, the originally minute cracks continued to widen.

Suddenly, a deep red light emanated from the head of the Chaos Gate statue.

"Come on!"

Will drew his sword and quickly retreated.

Upon hearing this, Carly also quickly retreated.

The deep red light that started from the head of the Chaos Gate statue quickly spread to its entire body, and the black and white armor began to peel off piece by piece.

As the red light spread across its entire body, a deafening roar resounded.

The Chaos Gate, resembling a gigantic body, suddenly exploded violently.

The explosion generated a terrifying shockwave.

Carly quickly stepped in front of the group, raised her giant shield, and blocked the shockwave.
