Without warning, the riotous blogger leaped into the air a few meters away from Sean, delivering a powerful punch with wide eyes revealing hysteria.

Sean instantly activated his magic, braced himself, and used Earth Blessing to strengthen his body, allowing him to stand firm against the impact and bounce back, causing both of them to retreat.

"Hmph, so you really do know magic... You're quite the liar, you bastard! You were quite the actor when you cheated and beat me with magic before! Why are you putting on such a sour face now! You love to gossip, don't you? Open your stinking mouth and see my magic!"

The blogger, who was in a daze, stared intently at Sean, his eyes filled with resentment as he watched the magical fluctuations emanating from Sean.

It's the guild's mage again! They're always bullying people in town, taking advantage of their superior abilities to demand special privileges, and using the interests of ordinary people as a means to curry favor with their superiors. They're all a bunch of bastards!

"Sean, are you alright?!" "Don't come any closer, Haruki. This guy is coming for me, and the magic he's using is very strange. Don't make any rash moves."

The sudden conflict caught Yao Hui off guard, and just as he was about to step forward to help, he was stopped by Sean.

“If this person was instructed by someone, then that guy is likely keeping watch around here. You can’t act rashly before the real culprit shows up. Haruki, conserve your strength. You are our trump card in the fight against the real culprit!”

The head-to-head battle did not throw Sean into a panic. He remained fully alert and kept his mind rational, telling Haruki to be wary of potential dangers around them.

It's a small matter if I get injured by the rioting bloggers, but if Haruki gets hurt, the situation will be much more critical. The more critical the moment, the more we must protect everyone's guardian at all costs.

"Pretending, pretending! All you do is pretend! You're just like those bastards in the guild, all you do is feign humility! You put a mask of kindness on your face and then cheat everyone out of their trust and money, ugh! After I beat you down, I'll tear the guild apart!"

The blogger's mind was filled with self-righteous righteousness, causing him to forget the cause and effect of everything and only seek his own pleasure.

I am destined for greatness, blessed with extraordinary power! Eliminating those hypocrites is my first mission after gaining this power!

The rioter charged forward, fists swung, but Sean, equally enraged, kicked out first, disrupting his opponent's attack. The blow knocked him back but didn't inflict pain; the blogger, his senses partially blocked, charged forward again.

He tried to overpower Sean with wild, flailing arm swings, but such chaotic movements only created openings for his opponent. Seizing the opportunity, he deflected Sean's arm and delivered a precise blow to the liver, stunning him and forcing him to calm down.

But this attack did not stop the rioter's movements; instead, it intensified the black energy emanating from him. Injured, he advanced instead of retreating, swinging his fists left and right as he lunged forward, chasing Sean with the sound of his own body tearing apart, a testament to his furious roar of revenge.

The more Sean looked at the rioter, the stranger he found it. Realizing the danger was escalating, he quickly grabbed the rioter's arm and threw him over his shoulder, taking the riding position. Sean then pressed down on the rioter, holding his wrists down and using the Earth Blessing to temporarily restrict his hand movements.

"What's with the power you have? Have you seen some strange guy? If so, tell me quickly, that kind of guy is extremely dangerous! He was making you hurt yourself!"

Sean was so agitated that he became frenzied. He suppressed the magic emanating from the rioter with all his might and unleashed his maximum magical output, hoping to awaken the last vestiges of reason in the rioter and ask about the whereabouts of the real culprit.

Previously able to contend with the small beast's power, he was now entangled by this black fluctuation. This unknown magic was extremely aggressive. If the opponent hadn't been unskilled in magic, Sean would likely have been the one defeated.

"Hey, hey, hey, talking badly about others behind their backs is really rude!"

The voice coming from the shadows was very clear but revealed madness. Once Sean's brain picked it up, it immediately sent a chill down his spine, who had been agitated just moments before.

Turning his head to look behind him, he saw a shadow sword being fired at him at such a speed that Sean had no time to react.

A burst of color caused the light slash to cut through the shadow sword. Haruki appeared just in time, wearing the Courage Crystal to protect Sean behind him, and activated the Alpha Armor's ability to break through the enemy's sneak attack.

The hidden force finally revealed itself, and its manipulation tactics to harm people infuriated Haruki. The sneak attack from behind made Haruki grit his teeth in disgust.

"You despicable bastard, you're the one who caused the monster riot, aren't you! Who are you? Why did you attack Sean!"

Haruki's anger made the light blades on Yuugi's Pure Crystal even sharper, but it also made the person hiding in the shadows laugh even more contentedly.

"You really are a champion of justice, hero. But you seem to have misunderstood something. That arrow of mine wasn't aimed at Sean."

"What? Oh no... Sean, get out of here!"

The previously severed shadow arrows flew again, piercing the rioters' bodies from both sides, completely unleashing the magic within them. They then grabbed Sean's wrists in the opposite direction, binding him in place, and completely devoured the earth's blessing magic from below, triggering a gas explosion that knocked the unsuspecting Haruki to the ground.

Finally, the shadow magic and earth blessing magic combined to form a giant beam of light that shot into the distance. Upon landing, it transformed into an unknown giant monster, stomping on the surrounding ground and emitting black mist as it roared towards the sky...

The enormous legs landed on the street, sharp protrusions twitching on the dark skin, and scarlet spots scattered all over its body were particularly conspicuous. The claw blades on its head and arms reflected light...

The colossal earth shadow slammed into and destroyed surrounding buildings. The mixed magic within its body tore at each other, causing the earth shadow to become extremely violent. Born from chaos, it only intended to amplify the chaos further.

The magically created monster obeyed the summoner's initial instructions, found the Tsuchikage and killed him. With only this purpose in mind, the Tsuchikage headed towards the town, kicking down the signs blocking his way and rampaging through the streets.

"Damn it, there are so many innocent people in this town!"

Knocked back and falling to the ground, Haruki disregarded his injuries. Seeing the monster advancing towards the town, he knew he had to stop it immediately, or more people would be harmed. The Crystal of Courage shone brightly in the forest, its surface already gathering iridescent particles. In just one second, Haruki could transform into Zeta and launch his attack.

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave, Hero. Have you forgotten to bring your friend Sean along?"

The malicious snort rang out again. The stranger, carrying the unconscious Sean and the blogger, threw them to his feet, then brought two fingers together to form a shadow sword, which seemed ready to strike Sean's throat at any moment.

"You dare! Let them go! Come at me if you have a problem!"

"Oh my, what a brilliant speech! But it's a pity you're not the main character this time. To keep the story from getting disturbed, would you please stay here, Hero? Let's see how the Earth Master performs!"

Overwhelmed with grief and indignation, Haruki clenched his fists, staring intently at the stranger opposite him as he desperately suppressed Yuugi Junsei's power.

Zeta, who witnessed all of this, was equally enraged. She felt utterly disgusted by the inexplicable madman in front of her, who used only despicable methods and uttered endless vile and shameless words.

The stranger was not swayed by his opponent's hostility in the slightest, because it was exactly what he had expected. It would be strange if Haruki hadn't been furious.

He concealed his shadowy form, revealing his face as a sign of respect to the hero he was meeting for the first time; with his arm charging up a shadow arrow and a cheerful smile, the stranger began his self-introduction in this moment of crisis.

"That's what being a hero is like, my hero. You can't be so oblivious to that, can you? That won't do! If there are only powerful heroes who can roam the world, but no dark magic humans to fight against them, wouldn't that be too boring?"

So, please allow me, Luo Yi, to be your nemesis, Haruki and Zeta? Let's create a legend of heroes together!
