Is the person you sculpt as cute as me?

It burst out with all its strength, galloping among all the giants, cutting them as much as it wanted.

But there is one strange thing - even without the master's orders, they are... a little too fragile.

Until only a few are left, they are no longer a threat.

But the magician's control—has yet to come.

The giants remained standing still, showing no intention of moving to fight.

"Have you given up, stranger?" The werewolf panted, feeling increasingly vacant. "Your army is completely destroyed."

"Really?" Yu Man's response was so frivolous.

"...Next, I'm going to chop off your head." The werewolf raised the sword, but felt unable to move forward.

However, this is just a classic trick.

Just sculpt a bunch of ice sculptures and pretend they are ice warriors that can rush forward, but in reality they won't move at all.

Then pretend to have consumed a lot of magic power to make the enemy misjudge the battle situation.

But it worked - the werewolf was hit hard.

After spending a lot of magic power and physical strength, he thought that his sword had cleared the ice magician's trump card and could finally reach the enemy's throat.

But in fact, it arrived at the next battlefield prepared by Yu Man.

"Shaping from Ice and Snow."

The broken ice all over the ground created her home court.

While the other party was chopping the ice sculpture, she completed a long spell.

“Welcome to my winter.”

126 Gulp, Gulp

In a one-on-one situation, such an environment rarely exists.

Covered in water vapor and ice, the enemy focused on other things and ignored the magician.

The magician himself has plenty of time and magic power to prepare a very detailed and grand magic.

With a seventh-tier weapon in her possession and her expertise nearly maxed out, she can now do more and more terrifying things.

"This move has no name. How about you choose one? I'll bury it with you."

Yu Man is infused with magic power and begins to subvert reality.

The broken ice scattered on the deck suddenly broke apart.

Not only that—

All the moisture around him condensed into tiny, icy sharp needles according to Yu Man's thoughts.

It is much smaller than a sewing needle, but sharper and stronger.

They danced and rolled in the air, forming an extremely terrifying dance of ice needles and snow.

"Give it to him and keep him company."

Yu Man did not let his guard down and used the power of a sixth-level enchanter.

At this point, I can already enchant the concept of "magic", not just a single entity.

Also, the intensity is much higher.

"Give it—sharpness. Give it—extreme strength."

Her right hand took out a handful of wood chips from her bag, but they were all fifth-level mediums.

Use them to pay mana and enhance enchantments.

Three kinds of gains immediately enhanced magic.

The pervasive sea fog of ice needles suddenly shrank in size, only following the werewolf.

“…What is this?!”

Every enchanted ice needle that had been carefully prepared for a long time now became a weapon.

As long as the werewolf remains in the fog, the flowing needle will pierce it.

And it was pierced from beginning to end with almost no gap.

But they were too small and everywhere, and the two swords seemed powerless in the face of all this.

The werewolf was silent for a while.

Because it has discovered that if it opens its mouth, the ice needles will rush into its mouth, and if it breathes, they will pierce its nose.

Yu Man judged that it could only continue to burn magic power and maintain a layer of fighting spirit that barely wrapped around its body to block these ice needles.

But soon, the opponent's magic power and physical strength will be exhausted.

Yu Man drank a bottle of magic potion to replenish the previous loss and began to prepare for the next magic.

This is a real battle where your fortune is at stake. There must always be a next move. You can never engage in rough confrontation, but instead you must use all your tricks to create huge results.

"……Um?"

A seventh-level swordsman has something after all.

Even though he had been exhausted by Yu Man, the opponent still threw out a sword.

Loud noise——

Magic surges——

Then, a hole was blown open in the ice fog, and the werewolf covered in blood quickly escaped from it.

Yu Man raised his brows in surprise. This guy's sword might have some self-destructing ability.

Now there was only one left - the other one turned into a magic bomb and blew through the ice magic.

Yu Man, who had made a prediction, had dispersed the remaining ice mist between the two of them in order to guard against the opponent's sudden attack.

This blocks the opponent's vision, and at the same time, it is a layer of field magic that will cause blood loss if stepped into.

"Stranger...stranger—you pissed me off!" The werewolf realized that he had lost the opportunity to attack, and cursed fiercely.

"Wild dog." Yu Man just responded indifferently.

"Good! Very... very good." It gasped, exhaling a fishy breath. "I want to show you."

Yu Man sniffed the animal-like stench in the air: "Oh, you're turning into a wolf."

The werewolf swallowed his words angrily, as he was hit by the tongue again.

But it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t affect anything.

It slashed the sky with a sword - at the same time, all the blood that flowed out of its body was stained onto the sky with this sword.

They symbolically converge where they hang above the werewolf's head.

"A simulated blood moon..." Yu Man nodded, thinking that he was right.

The werewolf has completely lost its rationality, with unprecedented magical power rising, and it has entered a ritual.

A self-ritual of transformation into a blood wolf.

The magic power and blood created a magic circle around it, trying to protect the ritual.

Yu Man had no intention of interrupting, but just raised the magic book and brewed the final magic.

I also took a few screenshots to record the moment when it turned into a blood wolf.

"Ouch——!!!"

It worked.

The scarlet eyes, filled with endless anger, stared at Yu Man.

The blood moon was torn down from the sky by the wolf and swallowed into its stomach.

All its wounds are thus healed.

Not only that, he also gained unprecedented power.

This was the enemy's racial strength, its trump card. While it came at a significant cost and had a limited duration, it was enough to challenge powerful foes across levels. In its view, a fragile ice mage would likely be easily ripped apart.

"My pain, my price... my shame! Everything will be part of the bargain, taken from you."

The blood wolf looked down upon the world, including Yu Man.

It speaks rational words, forming sentences of resentment.

"Your death will not be easy. I will start with your eyes—"

but.

Yu Man interrupted its speech——

“Retaining time.”

It also interrupted its victory.

Paying half of his magic power, Yu Man activated the skill contained in his "Soul Weapon".

Since the other party is also risking his entire fortune, Yu Man must show off his skills as well.

In the dark, there is power coming from the past and power returning from the future.

And then—they coalesce into the present.

They grabbed the blood wolf's soul from nothingness.

Gently place it on the previous step of the river of time.

“…It hurts—what?! Huh?!”

The blood wolf screamed in pain, but what was more serious than the wounds on its body was its inability to understand all this.

Absurd, nightmarish things happened.

"How could I... turn into a werewolf again?" It muttered to itself in a daze.

The Blood Wolf Ritual costs one's life and consumes a huge amount of magic power.

Now, it seems as if it never happened.

Not to mention the healing of the body, the tremendous power gained.

The wounds never healed, and blood stained his entire body.

But, the lifespan and magic power that I paid for! Now... they are gone.

"I simply adjusted your time—taking you back to a time a little while ago...a time when you were just one step away from death."

As a parting gift, Yu Man solved its confusion.

The werewolf stood there in a daze, unable to even understand what Yu Man said.

However, the beast's instincts ultimately overrode all rationality.

It struggled in its last moments: "No—death is too late!"

On this ship, the branded magic circle was activated by the blood and spells it dripped.

"...Resurrection? No—is this magical fluctuation a teleportation array? Eh, it's trying to escape—"

Yu Man was a little anxious and read out the effect of the magic circle.

This was probably the escape card given by the Ghost World Chamber to these powerful captains. After all, a seventh-level werewolf was indeed a very valuable combat force.

Yu Man immediately prepared the next magic.

She also has a move called "Ice Coffin" that can be used, which can forcibly freeze the werewolf for two seconds.

As long as you can read the timing of the magic circle's effectiveness correctly, you can make it immune to teleportation and render its escape ineffective.
