Chapter 390

【"Teacher, it's probably over there."】

【Flat pointed to the direction of the forest visible from the hill and said, "I see more than ten people. No, now it's twenty—wait, already more than thirty?"】

【Reines: "So many people coming to attack Izelma at this time, it can't be a coincidence, right?"】

【"Yes, of course it's not a coincidence."】

【II said solemnly, "Svin, it's the guys you investigated."】

【Svin: "But Teacher, if it's that, we..."】

【Just then, large dark clouds covered Izelma's land, spreading over everyone's heads at an extremely unnatural speed and scale.】

【"Danger!"】

【Everyone hurriedly scattered to hide. The next moment, lightning fell from the clouds, striking the position where they had just been.】

【Gray: "Master, what was that lightning strike just now?"】

【"Looks like a polite greeting."】

【II analyzed, "Calculating the time to cast weather magecraft at dusk is a standard old-fashioned operation. Is the goal to deprive Izelma of the land's protection?"】

【Soon, the Moon Tower also had magic starting to move; this was a counterattack.】

【"I think we should avoid it for a while to avoid being harmed."】

【II looked around and said helplessly, "Although I'd like to say that, I'm afraid it's not possible anymore."】

【"Hmm? Where's Flat?"】

【Everyone only then discovered that Flat had disappeared.】

【Being able to disappear silently, he must have run off on his own.】

【Svin: "I'll go after him!"】

【"Wait, Svin!"】

【Before Gray could stop him, Svin had already disappeared into the forest.】

【"I can't stand it. That's why I told them not to come."】

【II touched his stomach, and more lines appeared on his forehead.】

Shishigou Kairi: "Hahaha, truly a disciple who doesn't let you rest."

Waver: "I've already started to get a headache."

Conqueror: "But they are all very reliable, aren't they?"

Caules: "I didn't expect the other party to make such a big move."

Extra Feng Xi: "This is what fits the style of Middle Easterners."

【On the other side, in the forest.】

【The person who launched this attack was none other than Atrum.】

【He stood on the hillside, looking at the Twin Towers in the distance through binoculars, very satisfied with the results just now, then sat back in his comfortable recliner, put his arm around his maid, and started joking.】

【"How is it? I'm confident that this is enough to compare to the witch's fire that burned the rival and the city together."】

【He was talking about the legend of Medea burning her rival and her two children to death.】

Extra Feng Xi: "Ptooey, ptooey..."

This might be fate playing tricks; Atrum would pay the price for his foul mouth in the future.

【"A declaration of war?"】

【Inside the Moon Tower, Byron looked down at the water basin and whispered with hatred.】

【He had heard rumors about Galliasta. Although it was an emerging family that had just come out of the Middle East, their behavior was both overbearing and barbaric. He also knew that he had offended the other party at the previous auction.】

【However, to choose this timing to come knocking...】

【"Maio, Islo."】

【Byron walked out of the workshop and ordered the two people outside the door: "You go and accompany Estella."】

【Islo: "What about the fighting?"】

【Byron: "Your magecraft is not suitable."】

【Subsequently, Byron left in a hurry and stopped another servant halfway.】

【"Where is Lord Inorai?"】

【"Lord Valuareta has locked herself in her room and said she doesn't need dinner tonight."】

【"Is that so..."】

【Byron immediately understood Inorai's meaning: she would not participate.】

【"Did Lord Valuareta conspire with Galliasta? Yes, if it were Lord Inorai, she might even accept a nouveau riche."】

【Byron gritted his teeth, listening to the thunder outside, and let out a roar like a demon.】

【"Alright, then I will personally let you see my strength."】

Darnic: "Oh, quite confident, huh."

Shishigou Kairi: "But this guy isn't stupid either; he immediately understood his position."

Fiore: "Truly realistic."

Kayneth: "Hmph, I want to see how many tricks this guy has up his sleeve."

【A moment later, the first wave of attackers had already reached the foot of the Twin Towers.】

【Byron, who was prepared, had been waiting for a long time.】

【He stomped his cane, and dense soap bubbles of various sizes floated up, surrounding the attackers.】

【None of the attackers dared to rashly break these soap bubbles; this was the minimum quality of a magus.】

【"Izelma's Rainbow Balls—what do you think, everyone?"】

【As soon as Byron finished speaking, the soap bubbles began to burst one by one.】

【Instantly, several attackers clutched their throats and fell to the ground in pain.】

【This move was to destroy the surrounding oxygen, hinder the opponent's breathing, and cause them to suffocate.】

"..."

The operation of Byron in the video directly made everyone laugh.

Tohsaka Rin: "... That's it?"】

Fiore: "Is this trying to make me laugh?"】

Gold: "Magecraft that destroys oxygen—to think such a small trick is being shown off."】

Shishigou Kairi: "Looking at the old man's confident appearance before, I thought he was someone with hidden depths, but it's just this."】

Shishigou Kairi: "If it were me, I'd probably try to add smoke or poison gas to the bubbles."】

Kayneth: "Hehehe, Hahaha..."

Kayneth: "I really can't help it. Is Izelma trying to laugh me to death?"】

Waver: "I really don't know how to evaluate this."】

【The remaining attackers immediately launched an attack, and a large amount of lightning struck Byron.】

【Byron used soap bubbles to defend, but 30% was still broken through, hitting his shoulder directly.】

【The attackers who had fallen before also recovered quickly and launched an attack with their companions.】

【Byron endured the pain and summoned more soap bubbles to meet the attack.】

【Just then, Flat and Svin joined the battlefield.】

【Svin had caught up with Flat before and wanted to drag him back, but he was met with strong resistance from the other party and was even bewitched by him, directly standing on the same front.】

【II would probably be pissed to death if he knew.】

【But it must be said that the strength of these two is also truly strong. One uses beast-transformation magecraft, and the other uses interference magecraft. With mutual cooperation, they directly beat the attackers into a sorry state.】

【However, the battle stopped quickly because the main character, Atrum, had arrived.】
