I have to hypnotize you, Aura!

As Fingel thought this, he felt an increasing sense of unease.

Now that Aura has been seen by Mahat, if he were to use illusion magic to hide her, he could—but the next second would definitely be a fatal attack, and he himself would be exposed.

...

Gaa-gaa-gaa!!

Dozens of black bird-like monsters finally arrived, swooping down like madmen to attack Mahat—but Mahat paid no attention, simply waving his large, leisurely hand.

crackling and popping...

The attacking monster immediately turned into a golden sculpture and fell straight to the ground, thus thwarting the attack.

But those magical beasts still retained their appearance from when they were alive.

"Don't come any closer!!!"

Aura roared through gritted teeth, her heart pounding at its limit, like a young female beast that had been provoked.

'Magic to turn things into gold? No...it's something even more powerful!'

She knew her stuff; this was definitely not simple gold magic, it was far more terrifying—it could actually turn living beings directly into gold? Incredible!

Ha ha.

Mahat chuckled twice, his indifferent voice seemingly carrying a hint of mockery, yet also seemingly none at all.

He looked around, somewhat puzzled.

"Oh right, there should be another human next to you, right? His presence seems to have disappeared... Even I couldn't lock onto him, he doesn't even have a trace of him!"

Mahat was quite surprised; it wasn't magical at all, and it was somewhat beyond his comprehension.

'Invisibility magic? No, it can't be.'

Any use of magic will inevitably produce magical fluctuations. Even if the opponent uses magic to hide their body, they should not be able to make their aura disappear—for example, Solitaire right now, even though she is hidden in the shadows, all the mages present can still know that she is there.

This made Mahat even more concerned, especially when he thought of a certain prophecy about the demon race, which was extremely important to him.

'The human who changed the demon race, the human who walked alongside the demon race... is that him?'

We must catch him!

Mahat made up his mind to capture Aura and all the 'invisible' humans—as long as he captured them, he would do it in any form, even if they were turned into gold by him.

His "All Things Turn to Gold" technique can turn living beings into gold and then back into gold, thus preserving the state of the 'deceased' to some extent.

"where is he?"

"Hand him over, and I might spare your life."

Mahathir questioned, his calm tone carrying a subtle threat, as he considered it a very easy question.

"This is none of your business!"

Aura's face darkened further. Was this guy's target not just him?

"Huh...?"

Upon hearing this, Mahat's expression turned serious, and he gave Awula a deep look.

"You're really special..."

Mahat's tone was unusually surprised; he had never seen anything like it before. For demons, their own lives should be more important.

"You don't want to expose him? Why? I don't understand."

...

?

"What are you talking about? Why should I take orders from you?"

Aura frowned. Protect? What a joke! How could I do something so foolish!

"We're both demons, do you really think I'd believe you?"

.....

This statement was so convincing that Mahat was at a loss for words—never trust the words of the demons, not even those of their own kind.

"Let me put it this way—if you don't hand it over, I'll kill you right now."

Mahathir said this.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Author's Note: I almost...missed the perfect update deadline by a minute! That scared me to death! By the way, brothers, we're about to enter the next world. May this wonderful world be blessed! (By the way, I recommend this hilarious and very good isekai fantasy anime.)

Chapter 128; How do you plan to rape me?

'Mahat...I think I've heard that name before. He seems very strong.'

'It seems to be called... something like "Beng Xian"?'

Aura's face suddenly turned cold and hard, her eyes surging with suppressed anger. Proud by nature, she was unwilling to be provoked like this. This was a matter of confidence in her own magic. So what if it was Mahat?

Even when faced with an attack from the Demon King, knowing that they might not be able to win, no demon would foolishly surrender. They would simply respect the power and fear being killed, rather than being cowardly enough to not dare to resist.

Being afraid of death and being cowardly are two different things.

Seemingly sensing something, Aura's lips curled up slightly as she coldly looked at Mahat.

"If you can do it, then come on!"

A deafening rumble shook the earth. In the distance, at least dozens of magical beasts appeared to rush out of the nearby forest, and the startled birds hinted at the approach of even more magical beasts.

"Looks like we're going to have to fight."

Mahat spoke expressionlessly, also entering battle mode.

'Is this the ability to control magic? The quantity is a bit excessive... but that's all.'

He tried to make a final attempt to persuade her.

"You really don't want to hand it over? It won't do you any harm, will it?"

"You don't need to fight a demon stronger than you for the sake of a human, do you?"

Mahat scrutinized Awula's expression intently.

Are they after Fingel? What's so noteworthy about that guy? He's just a bit older... and knows some rather strange magic!

[You're really going to cause me trouble.]

"Huh? That kind of guy is good no matter what."

Aura held up his scales, a cruel smile playing on his lips.

"There's only one reason: you've angered me... damn it."

?

kindness?

Mahat frowned slightly; what a confident member of his clan.

"hehe."

A battle was inevitable.

Can't we blame him? Who told the target not to obediently give up resistance and surrender? What a bunch of stupid guys.

'Put a little...force in.'

Mahat's hanging sleeves shimmered with a faint golden light.

"Stronger than me? That's shameless! You can say anything!"

As Aura spoke fiercely, he raised his right hand—a dark mass of monsters surged down from the forest and the sky.

The magical beasts that inhabited Frisch were all capable of easily tearing apart steel, and some of the more powerful ones could even pose a threat to dragons, which filled her with confidence.

"My control magic is the strongest! Your boring magic...golden magic? It's incredibly boring!"

"go to hell!"

Aura was now full of confidence in himself!

At that moment, a huge griffin suddenly slammed down from the sky, its ferocious eyes seeming to tear Mahat apart.

Will it win?

We will win!!

......................

five minutes later.

"Aura is going to lose!"

At this moment, Fingel, who was hiding outside the battlefield, offered a sharp critique.

The battle raged on, with Aura's monsters launching a frenzied attack on Mahat. Griffins and bird monsters flew in the sky, while giant black wolves and brown bears roamed the ground... a total of four figures of various monsters were desperately trying to kill Mahat.

Unfortunately, there was no way to cause any damage.

Mahat could often turn monsters into dead gold with just a light touch, and monsters of this level posed no threat to him—although their sheer number still caused him some trouble.

Mahat's terrifying magical power was something these magical beasts couldn't touch, and several attacks nearly killed Aura.

'A very powerful ability... He can turn enemies directly into gold, and can also use gold magic for attack or defense; he's incredibly versatile.'

Fingel frowned deeply, a bad feeling creeping into his heart.

The opponent's magic power is virtually inexhaustible. They have killed at least three-digit numbers of magical beasts, yet their total magic power has not changed significantly. However, Aura's number of magical beasts is limited.

At this moment, he was standing less than 30 meters away from the battlefield, but he had not yet joined the battle. He was hiding by relying on his invisibility ability, and he dared not show himself.

why?

Because there is more than one enemy.

Why isn't the other one making a move?

Fingel looked up at the sky with some apprehension. The black and red longsword hanging in the sky stood still, but Fingel believed that as long as he appeared, he would definitely encounter the most terrifying attack.

He could only resist that level of attack for a short time; after a few minutes, his body would be unable to withstand the load of the high-speed reduction field.

'...Is he trying to lure me out?'

'Why are you arresting me? It's because what I'm doing is completely unnoticed. Aside from me and Flame, nobody else knows how influential my actions are.'

Fingel pondered deeply. Aside from someone having the ability to cheat and know exactly what to do in the future, he truly didn't understand why the Demon Clan would send a limited number of Greater Demons to annihilate him.

The only one who can directly command the Great Demon Clan is the Demon King, which means the Demon King has his eye on me?

Considering that even time magic exists, the demon race might also possess some outrageous magic.

'So... you really did see the future? You fucking opened it, huh?'

Fingel gritted his teeth, unsure of what to do.

Large beads of sweat dripped from Fingel's forehead. A major crisis! The biggest crisis in history!

Two powerful demons! How can I possibly win? No matter how I think about it, I should only flee in panic, right?

Nothing is more important than life!

'Calm down! Calm down, Fingel, you better calm down!'

'This time is different from the one with Flame... Flame might spare my life, but with these demons, it's hard to say!'

Fingel never expected any mercy from the demons. These guys kill without blinking an eye, treating humans and livestock as the same species. Expecting them to show him any mercy? Forget it!

So should I...?

[Escape?]

This is beyond my control, I should have run away a long time ago, okay?

The thought startled Fingel; he shouldn't have said that!

"How could I abandon Aula and run away? That would be so inhuman! What could be more important than criticism?"

"Right...is that right?"

As he spoke, Fingel fell silent.
