"No... Impossible... Absolutely impossible. I can't accept this. Absolutely impossible!"
Sid was brought back to his senses by Gerald's voice. He shook his head slightly and muttered softly, as if he was having an epileptic seizure. If Rocky had not been holding Sid from behind, Sid would have rushed out of the protection of the "Earth Shield" in the next second and ran to the ice sculpture to start studying it.
Having regained some of his spirit, Gerard took a deep breath, carefully looked at the motionless ice sculpture again, and walked a few steps to Sid.
"Sid, what on earth did you find?"
“Impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible—ow!”
In order to make West come back to his senses, Gerrard slapped West on the side of his face. After just a moment, West's left face was swollen to an unbearable extent.
But Sid didn't care about it at all. With a look of fear, he stretched out his trembling right hand and pointed at the huge icy waves that covered most of the sky.
"That...that must be tenth-level magic, tenth-level magic!"
"what?!"
For a moment, Gerard felt the sky darken and grabbed Sid's clothes.
"What's going on? Sid, tell me clearly!"
"It seems I have some abilities, you know. I'm sorry I couldn't give you a grand gift. As the Holy Spirit that controls fire, I couldn't help but feel a little angry when I saw you using it just now. I hope you don't mind me."
Before Sith could answer, the gray-black human figure transformed by the Seal of Greed appeared in everyone's sight.
Chapter 62: The most powerful magic of a pure-blooded vampire!
Looking at the Seal of Greed suspended in the air, Gerard couldn't help but mutter.
"Th-that is?"
"That's the seal of greed."
Mitis folded her wings and landed next to Gerard to answer.
From what Greedy Seal had just said, he now understood why the unscripted magic of Firestorm had appeared. As the Holy Spirit in charge of fire, Greedy Seal was dissatisfied with the fireballs used by the Magic Chanter Corps, so he retaliated with an even more powerful magic.
If it weren't for the unknown tenth-order magic, the magic chanter corps would have lost at least hundreds of people.
Thinking of this, Mitis couldn't help but feel angry.
[No, now is not the time to worry about these things... If the Mark of Greed finds out, it will be over.]
Mitis clenched her fists tightly, completely ignoring Gerard who was still standing there, took out an umbrella from the storage magic, and stepped forward as a representative.
"May I ask what your purpose is in coming here, sir?"
This was, of course, a dialogue according to the script, in which the purpose of the Seal of Greed was told to others without any concealment, creating a situation in which they had to fight. Although the appearance of tenth-order magic might not go so smoothly—the worst case scenario was that Greed would flee out of fear—but for now, the Seal of Greed was still acting according to procedure.
"I don't know how you managed to stop my magic, but since you came prepared, it's understandable that you were able to do it."
Although it was clearly just the shape of condensed black mist, the Seal of Greed was very human. He reached out and touched his chin and continued to supplement.
"As for my purpose... you should all know it, right? I am the organizer of Laplace's Demon, the one who controls the Greedy Seal of Fire, and the one who brings destruction to the world."
"What? You're the Seal of Greed?!"
Finally coming to his senses, Gerard's face was filled with shock. Most people might only regard the Mark of Original Sin as a legend, but Gerard definitely would not. As an earl, he was very clear about the power of the Mark of Original Sin. You know, in the past few hundred years, the empire had been ravaged by the Mark of Jealousy once.
But what Mitis cared about was the first half of the sentence of the Seal of Greed.
"This guy, didn't he notice the tenth-order magic at all? He said he came prepared, but did he think I was prepared in advance?"
Mitis couldn't help but start to doubt whether the Seal of Greed was the organizer of Laplace's Demon. This worrying wisdom really made people sweat.
[No, this is a good thing for me. Not realizing it was a tenth-tier magic means Greed won't run away. As for who cast the tenth-tier magic, we'll figure it out after the battle is over.]
Now is not the time to investigate the cause. Since the other party has no intention of showing up, as a user of tenth-level magic, there is no way for me to find him even if I want to. Moreover, judging from the action of freezing the "Fire Storm" just now, the other party may be here to help me. Maybe even the poachers and captives were captured by that mysterious man.
"What's wrong? Are you scared?"
Seeing that Mitis didn't move, the Seal of Greed urged.
"Tsk, in that case, 'Scarlet Nova'."
Without giving any room for negotiation, Mitis condensed attack magic in her hand, and a six-meter-long spear emitting a red light suddenly appeared in her field of vision.
Unlike the divine spear "Gungnir", "Vermillion Nova" is a third-level magic that focuses on range. After the spear is thrown, once it hits the target, it will create an explosion effect within a range of at least ten meters. It is an offensive magic that is very suitable for use on the battlefield.
Under the sunlight, the originally dazzling red color was covered by gold. The spear condensed by magic power passed over the Shield of the Earth and rushed straight towards the Seal of Greed.
however--
"Too weak!"
Without using any magic to resist, the originally gray-black body of the Seal of Greed instantly turned red. It opened its arms and allowed the "Scarlet Nova" to pierce its body.
Like rain falling into the sea, the six-meter-long spear that an ordinary soldier needed both hands to lift disappeared into the body of the Seal of Greed, as if it had never appeared, without any reaction.
"Lie... lie..."
Countless voices could be heard murmuring. The magic casters present simply refused to believe that the Seal of Greed hadn't been damaged. They certainly understood the destructive power of the Vermillion Nova. A strike focused on explosive power could even tear apart a dragon's scales, so how could it possibly disappear silently from the body? If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would have used all their strength to mock the person who said this.
The Seal of Greed slowly retracted its arms, and this action attracted the attention of countless magic casters. At this moment, they all hoped that the Seal of Greed would scream out in pain in the next second, but unfortunately, all they gained was disappointment and the fear that followed.
"It's delicious. I forgot to tell you one thing. Fire has no effect on me."
As if savoring the blow just now, the Seal of Greed smacked its lips and sneered at the people below.
"Isn't it my turn to attack?"
"Oh no, Cid! Quickly take your men and leave! Inform His Majesty that the Seal of Greed has appeared!"
"What about you, Gerald?"
"I'll delay him."
"You're the only one—"
"And me."
Shaking the parasol vigorously, Mitis shouted to the three leaders below.
After hesitating for a moment, Sid grabbed Gerrard's shoulders with his backhand, squeezed them hard, and then let out a long breath.
"I'll leave it to you."
"I will fulfill my duty as a noble—no, as a human being."
Now was not the time to be fussy. After handing over the task, Cid exchanged a glance with another magic caster legion leader and quickly raised his staff.
"Fly, speed up."
"Yes, yes, that's it. Tremble before the disaster I bring!"
Without hindering the two's escape, the Seal of Greed laughed loudly and gathered a dazzling fireball in his hand - no doubt, this was a symbol of the imminent release of high-level magic.
"How can I let you succeed!"
Pulling the heavy sword out of the mud, Gerard pushed the ground hard and jumped towards the Seal of Greed in mid-air.
"Hahaha, that's exactly what I want!"
As if he was tired of this magical bombardment, the Seal of Greed released the huge fireball held above his head and transformed it into a giant fiery red axe, which he swung hard at Gerard who was flying diagonally downwards.
Keng——
Although it was a giant axe formed of flames, it made a sharp sound of metal clashing when it came into contact with the heavy sword. Then Gerard flew in the opposite direction at a speed even faster than when he came.
boom--
Like a meteor hitting the ground, Gerrard even caused the ground to sink a foot deep.
"Ahem."
There is an overwhelming disadvantage in terms of strength.
Feeling the numbness in his palms and back, Gerard's heart sank as he climbed out of the shallow pit.
Of course, the battle did not end there.
"Vampire Kiss."
Mixed with the golden light of "One Hit Kill" - enhancing the power of the next attack by 10% - Mitis, flying in the air, swung her parasol directly above the Seal of Greed. The red that had been gathered on the umbrella blade instantly flew out, turning into a thin wind blade and heading straight for the Seal of Greed.
"Wall of Fire."
But to everyone's surprise, Mitis's attack tore through the defense of the Seal of Greed. The slender thin blade passed over the wall of fire and hit the Seal of Greed, causing its fiery red body to sway continuously.
"Tsk, so you're the main attacker!"
"so what?"
"I'll send you to death first! 『Fire Direct』."
"It's not over yet, 'Glorious Armguards'!"
"Gerald?"
With his arms crossed in front of him, Gerard used flying magic to appear in front of Mitis and used the third-level defensive magic to easily block the attack of the Seal of Greed.
"Huh? I heard from my subordinates that Count Gerard of the Empire hates demihumans. Now it seems that was false information."
"Hmph, I'm just putting aside my personal feelings temporarily in the face of external enemies."
"I see."
Facing the unexpected intruder, the Seal of Greed turned his head somewhat unnaturally. According to the plan, he should have made Gerard lose his combat effectiveness with the first strike.
Mitis also felt it was a difficult situation. The reason why her previous attack was able to penetrate the defense of the Mark of Greed was entirely because the Mark of Greed was letting her win. Not only that, according to the plan, the Mark of Greed would expose its weaknesses in close combat, making it easier for her to deliver the final blow. At that time, she would quietly use the most powerful magic to make the Mark of Greed disappear - if there was no chance, she would use the javelin given by Ella, and the most crucial point was that Gerard could not be present.
The seventh-level magic will undoubtedly include Gerard. Being able to erase the Mark of Greed is certainly a good thing, but he also doesn't want to see unnecessary casualties. For a moment, Mitis couldn't help but feel at a loss.
Seeing the Seal of Greed stop moving, Gerard slowly lowered his crossed arms.
"how?"
"As expected, you humans are all despicable creatures."
The Seal of Greed nodded his chin at Gerard, hinting at the two-on-one battle.
But Gerrard was completely unmoved.
“It’s just a way to win.”
"A formation of ice spears."
"A mere first-level magic, too simple."
He waved his hand to make the group of ice spears created by the magic casters below disappear, and the Seal of Greed swung the giant axe with one hand in a somewhat anxious manner.
"Anyway, just disappear!"
"Gerald, go!"
"Don't be distracted!"
Without listening to Mitis's advice, Gerard once again took the attack of the Seal of Greed head-on, and then, just like before, he was smashed down from the sky.
Now, Mitis was only two meters away from the Seal of Greed, and Mitis could even feel the heat from the Seal of Greed's burning body.
Swinging the giant axe at Mitis at an extremely slow speed, the Seal of Greed spoke first.
"What should we do with that guy?"
The sound was so quiet that one had to concentrate all his attention to hear it. If Mitis hadn't known that the Seal of Greed hadn't figured out his true intentions, he would have thought it was a trap set by the Seal of Greed to lower his guard.
Since there was a magic caster watching from below, Mitis could only pretend to be in battle, slowly swinging her parasol to block the giant axe.
"How should I know?"
"Isn't that your man?"
"Didn't I tell you to send him off with the first strike?"
"How could I have imagined that he was so resistant to fighting?"
Although the Seal of Greed had no facial features, making it impossible to obtain information from its expression, Mitis could still hear the anger in its tone.
"You don't have control skills?"
"You're more aware of this jealousy than I am, right? And after all, it doesn't matter if he joins, as long as you're the one who delivers the final blow."
The words of the Seal of Greed made Mitis nervous. It was not a problem for the Seal of Greed, but it greatly restricted her own abilities, and the biggest guarantee was that the javelin would not be usable.
