Chapter 475: Is she a True Magic Mage?

~15 min read 2,850 words

If you think a Demon Monarch is simple and silly, the only possibility is—you've been deceived, just like you believe a profiteer will do a loss-making business. If he does a loss-making business, he will definitely earn it back in a place you can't see.

The lava giant, which looked like it was dying, spraying ashes messily, as if it would go out at any time, suddenly straightened up, immediately rose by one-third, and its body became scorching, with heat waves rolling.

Even a fool could see it was pretending to be silly. Thinking of someone approaching quickly, the mage immediately shouted: "Full strength, chop it to pieces, don't hurt the demon heart."

By this time, the mage still didn't want to give up a demon heart, and then he saw a scene that made him dumbfounded.

"Fear, you stupid humans, let you see the true terror!"

The lava giant raised its hands high, and what poured out with its hands raised was the sand and stone on the ground, but when it sprayed into the air, it had already melted into scorching magma.

Accompanied by the whispers that seemed to come from the depths of the abyss, the lava giant clapped its hands down. Boom, the whole earth jumped, and with the place where the hands clapped as the center, a huge crack spread, extending like a spider web.

The range of the crack included the positions where the swordmasters stood, surging with magma. Swish, a lava ground thorn pierced out, penetrating the bodies of the swordmasters and piercing them into the air.

Those who were pierced in vital parts died on the spot. Those who were not pierced in vital parts were screaming in pain. The lava ground thorn carried high temperature, scalding the wounds, and even blood couldn't flow out.

More than a dozen swordmasters besieging the lava giant were all pierced through in one move.

The mage was dumbfounded, trembling all over. From the moment the lava giant clapped its hands, he felt an explosion of aura. That was definitely not the aura of an ordinary lava giant, not even the aura of an ordinary Great Demon.

The swordmaster holding the sword with both hands beside him was dumbfounded, the sword slipped from his arms, smashed onto his feet, and he jumped up and down holding his feet in pain.

More than a dozen swordmasters who were slashing at it were killed in one move. It had such strong strength, but it hid it and didn't release it, playing with everyone, and only showed its power until someone approached from a distance.

"Why... why? Why do you want to do this? You could have killed us yourself, why do you want to play with us like this?!" The mage asked sharply, unable to accept it.

"Ouch, I'm afraid you'll run away. There are good things on your car, I can sense it. Since there are good things, I must let the master open the box, otherwise how would the master know my efforts and credit?" The lava giant laughed and said unhurriedly.

"Ma... Master? You still have a master?" The mage's voice was trembling. Such a cunning and powerful demon, it actually has a master?

"Of course I have." The lava giant had a tone of being surprised: "Without a master, who would protect me? It's inexplicable."

Protect you? How strong must the person who can protect you be?

The mage trembled and crushed a ring on his hand. The energy fluctuation of the flying car under his feet increased rapidly. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the mage asked: "Demon, what is your job? Why are you in this desert?"

The lava giant said embarrassedly: "I fertilize the field."

"Fertilize the field? You cunning demon, there is not a single true word in your mouth. Chopping you up and burying you in the soil will only pollute the earth, and you still fertilize the field? Goodbye, cunning demon," the mage scolded.

"Heh..." The lava giant laughed, and didn't react.

On the contrary, the swordmasters who hadn't died yet shouted miserably: "My lord, my lord, don't leave us behind! Don't leave us behind!"

Pfft—the flying car, whose energy fluctuation had been raised to the extreme, made a sound similar to air leakage, and the energy fluctuation weakened rapidly.

The mage was stunned, stomped his feet on the flying car, and said anxiously: "What's going on? Move, why don't you move? Why is the teleportation scroll useless?"

"Don't waste your efforts. I can slap you to death, but I still have to call the master over, isn't it because I'm afraid you'll run away? Heh, leave the good things in the car, and then run. I promise not to chase you," the lava giant's voice was full of temptation.

The mage's heart tightened, a bit hesitant. There is a defensive array on the flying car. If he doesn't run, he can rely on the defensive array to hold on for a while, but can he hold on? Looking at the power of the lava giant killing those swordmasters, the defensive array on the flying car definitely couldn't hold on for a few hits.

But run... can he run away? Just as he was hesitating, it was quiet behind him. Turning his head, he saw the swordmaster behind him jump off the flying car and run wildly into the distance.

The mage cursed inwardly and jumped off the flying car, slapped two acceleration spells on himself, and swept into the distance.

Just as he swept out a few steps, a lava fireball flew over.

"Despicable! You are faithless and don't keep your promises!" The mage roared, dodged to the side, and let the lava fireball pass.

The lava fireball landed in front of him and exploded with a bang. Sparks and magma splashed everywhere, and many of them splashed onto him, making his shield crackle.

Where the lava fireball exploded, a smaller lava giant slowly emerged, stunned and said: "Don't keep promises? Do you have evidence? Did we sign a contract? Take it out and see. No proof, don't talk nonsense."

While speaking, it shot out a smaller lava fireball.

The mage was so angry that his face turned green. He waved his staff, and two ice cones shot out. The first ice cone shattered the lava fireball, and the other ice cone hit the smaller lava giant.

The smaller lava giant shattered, but the mage couldn't be happy at all, because he sensed another large lava fireball thrown from behind him.

This demon didn't want to kill him at all, just dragging him, preparing to capture him alive.

Can't be like this, can't be captured alive, the mage gritted his teeth and turned around to fight for his life, but just as he turned around, he saw several figures rushing up.

The big cat, coiled on the little zombie's head like a furry hat, opened its big mouth: "Ah—"

Space fluctuated in a state that ordinary people couldn't perceive. In this unstable state, no teleportation scroll could be used.

Lu Se waved his big sword and shouted while running: "Where is the enemy? Where is the enemy? Look at the power of my Dragon-patterned Steel Core Mithril Wire-inlaid Magic Pattern Covered Earth Forged Gem Gain Puncture Enchanted Banishment Sword!"

Negris couldn't help but scold: "What are you shouting about? That's the Sword of Judgment and Banishment, what kind of messy stuff."

"The Sword of Judgment and Banishment is too short, not majestic enough," Lu Se said.

Rushed over, looked left and right: "Eh, where are the people? Volcanic Ash, are you the one calling the lord for help? Where are the people?"

The Lord of Terror said muffledly: "Don't call me Volcanic Ash, I am the Lord of Terror!"

"Okay, got it, Volcanic Ash, where is the enemy?" Lu Se asked urgently.

The Lord of Terror sighed: "Don't call me Volcanic Ash, you can call me Black Smoke Ring, there's only

Lu Se took a look and said in astonishment, "A Great Mage? You're calling for help over a Great Mage? A guy who could be blown away by a fart, and you called us over?"

"Hey, hey, hey!" The mage was displeased. What 'blown away by a fart'? Are Great Mages worthless?

The Lord of Terror spread his hands, "He has good things on his flying carriage. I was afraid he would run away, so I called you over."

"Good things?" Lu Se's eyes lit up.

The little angel also arrived, looked left and right, and asked in confusion, "Ao!?"

The Lord of Terror hurriedly said, "There's only one left. He has good things in his team, and I was afraid he would run, so I called you."

As soon as the little angel heard this, it got anxious. Without a word, it pushed its hands forward.

"Hey, hey, hey..." The mage realized no one was paying attention to him, and an anger at being ignored welled up inside. He was a dignified Great Mage!

But before he could finish his 'hey', someone did pay attention to him. The little angel swished open two pairs of light wings, pushed its hands forward, and a beam of light swallowed him. This way of 'paying attention' was too enthusiastic...

After the attack, the little angel hopped and gave a happy 'Ao'.

Ang ran over carrying his scythe, looking blank.

The Lord of Terror quickly explained again, "He has good things on his flying carriage. I was afraid he would run away, so I called you over."

After understanding the specific situation, Negris said somewhat reluctantly, "If we don't find good things on the flying carriage, I'll throw you into the sea."

Everyone returned to the side of the flying carriage. Because the Lord of Terror had scared people and frightened them away, even the protective shield of the flying carriage was intact.

The protective shield was one-way; one could jump out from the inside, but couldn't get in from the outside. They had to break it by force.

Lu Se hurriedly said, "I'll do it, I'll do it."

He raised his battle aura and hammered the protective shield. After more than twenty consecutive punches, he forcibly smashed the protective shield of the flying carriage.

Being able to withstand more than twenty punches from a High-Rank Sword Saint, this flying carriage's defense was quite good. This meant that without seven or eight High-Rank Sword Saints attacking together with full force, it would be difficult to break the carriage's defense, especially with a Great Mage inside casting spells while maneuvering the carriage to fly around.

"High-end goods, oh." Lu Se panted slightly, said in surprise, and was the first to step onto the flying carriage, pulling open the door of the front cabin.

The shape of this flying carriage was very similar to a sea ship without sails, with a deck around it and a bulge in the middle, and a semi-submerged cabin door. This style of flying carriage was very common in this plane.

This was mainly because alchemy was advanced and magic crystals were cheap, so everyone could afford to drive a carriage.

However, flying carriages also had different levels. Like the ones driven by the gnomes of the Warlock Alliance, although the level was very high and they carried weapons, the main costs were concentrated on combat.

But the flying carriage in front of them was different; it was completely a luxury flying carriage, and the materials and workmanship were very exquisite. Pulling open the cabin door, the decoration inside was even more luxurious, and...

"Wow! Spatial folding expansion, just like that someone's carriage," Lu Se shouted immediately. After seeing the situation inside the cabin clearly, he asked again, "Who are you!?"

Negris squeezed in. It had grown up now and was no longer that little yellow dragon, half a meter long from head to tail, that it used to be. It was a bit crowded to enter a cabin door designed for humans.

As soon as it entered the cabin, it saw four maids kneeling in the cabin, and a woman lying half-reclined on a lounge chair, covered with a thin blanket, staring at the direction of the cabin door with indifference.

Negris also noticed at the same time that where the hands and feet should have been under the thin blanket, there was nothing at this moment.

Ang and the others also came in. The interior of the folded and expanded flying carriage could almost be partitioned into a three-bedroom, one-living-room space. Except for the Lord of Terror who couldn't get in, there was no problem for everyone else to enter.

Seeing that there were even a little girl and a big cat in Ang's group, the indifferent woman's expression relaxed a little, but it was still very cold.

After some interrogation, the four maids said everything they knew. They were servants of the Great Mage Aolaroluokesite, responsible for taking care of the woman behind them, and were heading to the Magic Star City to attend the Mage Assembly.

"Then who are you? What is your relationship with Aolaroluokesite? Eh? Soul Prohibition Ring?" Negris noticed a ring on the woman's neck and recognized at a glance that this was an Adams Prohibition Ring, right?

However, there shouldn't be anyone named Adams in this world, so it was better to call it by its common name—Soul Prohibition Ring.

Seeing the Prohibition Ring, Negris immediately lifted the blanket covering the woman, revealing a mutilated body. The woman's right hand was broken off at the root, her left hand was broken off at the elbow, and both legs were gone below the knees.

Thinking of the fact that she hadn't said a word, Negris pried open her mouth and found that her tongue was also gone.

"Damn it, who is so vicious?" Lu Se said angrily.

The maid replied, "It was done by the Great Mage Aolaroluokesite."

"Where is Aolaroluokesite? I'll go kill him. It's too hateful, how could he be so cruel to a girl!" Lu Se asked angrily.

The maids looked at each other, "Isn't... isn't he killed by you?"

"Oh, is that the one sprayed into charcoal outside?" Lu Se was immediately discouraged. So the villain was already dead; it was too easy for him.

Negris asked in confusion, "What did this girl do, why did that guy treat her like this?"

The maid replied, "The Great Mage said that if he didn't do this, he couldn't control her."

"She's not a dragon, why couldn't he control her? Wouldn't it be enough to tie her up?" Negris said inexplicably, turning to the woman and asking, "What is your name?"

The woman seemed not to have heard, her indifferent gaze sweeping over Ang and the others.

A bad premonition arose in Negris's heart. It turned the woman's head and looked into her ears.

Sure enough, the woman's eardrums had also been pierced, and it was that kind of destructive piercing. If it were just a small hole, the ears would be able to hear a little bit.

"What kind of hatred and resentment is this? It's really too vicious. Dying like this is too easy for him. I'll search his remnant soul and throw it into the Soul Prison later, damn it." Negris was also angry and turned to Ang, saying, "Ang, can you remove the Soul Prohibition Ring?"

Ang came over to take a look, used a Stain-Removal Technique to sizzle it, and pried open the Soul Prohibition Ring.

The woman was stunned for a moment, looked at Ang's hand, and then looked at the Soul Prohibition Ring that had fallen to the ground, unable to believe it.

She couldn't believe what her eyes saw, but the mana surging in her body wouldn't lie to her. After the Soul Prohibition Ring was removed, her mana returned.

The woman's eyes turned red, and she grinned hideously. Having lost her eardrums, tongue, hands, and feet, and even being sealed by the Soul Prohibition Ring, she had long hated this world. Having regained her power, the thing she wanted to do most was to destroy everything in front of her!!

"Such strong mana, so strong, damn it, could she be a Truth Mage? Oh no, she seems to be going crazy," Negris said in shock.

Mana erupted from the woman's body, first propping up a shield, and then lifting her up.

But before she could float up, Ang's hand inserted, bursting her shield. Dispel!

A steady stream of Level 1 spells—Dispel—hit the woman's body, and to her astonishment, forcibly dispersed the mana all over her body.

The woman was dumbfounded. What's going on? I am a Truth Mage, how could my mana be dispelled by a Level 1 spell?

Ang pinched her neck, twisted her head over, exposed her ear canals, dripped a drop of insect ash liquid, and treated them. He did the same for the other ear. Finally, he pried open her mouth and dripped insect ash liquid on the root of her tongue to treat it.
