Watching Kenneth come charging at him, Ian lowered his stance. He acted as though he had already lost, but the light in his eyes was far from one who had given up on life.

At best, it was to lure Kenneth into lowering his guard.

But that went the same for Ian. He had no intention of dragging out this fight from the start.

Crackle crackle.

An ice barrier sprouted up before Ian.

?!

Crash!

Kenneth swung his weapon straight into the barrier.

But he couldnt smash through it in one hit.

Instead, the ice spikes protruding from the surface stabbed into his armor.

The frost shield summoned with chaos power could block even a dragons breath once.

As shock spread across Kenneths face.

Boom! The barrier exploded, sweeping shards across his whole body. Wounds like they were sliced with a knife appeared on the face exposed under the helmet.

Seizing that opening, Ian pounced forth with magic power raging in his eyes.

Just as Kenneth gritted his teeth to activate the magic carved into his armor.

Swish-!

A wave of magic power burst from Ians grip.

Pachichit-

The forming spell scattered, and the magic stones embedded in the armor began blinking erratically.

Bewilderment rose on Kenneths face. What is this?!

Its a magic flow reversal. Having silently answered, Ian prepared the next spell as he rushed ahead.

Magic flow reversal, as the name suggests, reversed the flow of magic power to temporarily neutralize magic tools, artifacts, or spells being cast.

Despite looking like a useful ability, it had short range, required precise timing, and couldnt neutralize relic and boss-named skills.

But it was extremely effective at striking vulnerabilities because of that.

Ian stretched out his hand toward Kenneth, who still hadnt grasped the situation.

Crackle crackle crack-!

Honeycomb-like ice spikes sprouted up around Kenneth.

Blue magic, ice prison.

How on earth? Kenneth paused breathing.

Ians eyes, which were looking down at him, were once again swirling red.

Crack! Crackjangchang-!

Belatedly grabbing his spear, he began to wildly strike at the ice prison.

Crackleracklerackle-

But the golden flames that swallowed him up were faster.

The flames engulfed not only Kenneth and the ice prison, but the entire surrounding area.

Intermediate red magic, flame barrier.

It was one of the new skills he had recently learned.

I suppose so. Coming this far, they will certainly know that were headed north. Ian turned to look at her as he replied. Stop paying attention to things like this and lie down. Dont keep getting interested in stuff like this.

Im used to corpses. Its no big deal. And its not like this is my first or second time seeing them.

Ha.Ian heaved a deep sigh.

A twelve-year-old being used to corpses was as horrifying as him becoming a ruthless killer.

Can you guys come help get this stuff off him? Its weirdly hard to take off for some reason. Meanwhile, Miguel had grabbed Kyles corpse and was grunting as he tried to undress it. Even in this situation, his eyes had turned to the guards magical armaments.

Clicking his tongue, Ian spat out. To take that off, youll have to chop the corpse to pieces.

Huh? Why?

I think it has some kind of binding magic on it. The reason Ian knew this was, of course, because he too had tried to undress their armor. With these weapons too, anyone other than their owner probably cant draw out their full capabilities.

The Celestial Dragon Sword and the Celestial Fish Spear.

To properly exhibit the abilities of these weapons, which allowed checking information, the inscription process had to be gone through again.

To do that, an artisan capable of handling magical armaments was also necessary.

It was clearly a system made in the game to prevent things from becoming too easy, but it looked to still be operating the same way now that it had become reality.

Oh, but this stone bow looks pretty usable. A bit burnt, but still. Miguels eyes lit up as he picked up the composite crossbow from Kenneths waist. A small crossbow with a double string.Um so, this is

Use it. Dont hesitate.

Really? Is it okay? Miguels complexion reddened as he held the crossbow in his arms.

Ian added bluntly. We might get chased desperately soon, so anything we can use should be used.

Is that why?

There will be more trackers above us. Plus Belrondes mercenaries will likely catch up soon. The trackers above will stand out. As he spoke, Ian checked the weapons and magic stones he had looted from Kyle and Kenneths belongings.

He couldnt take off the armor, but he could easily detach the magic stones by sticking a blade in and twisting.

While not as much as an Essence, they would still likely prove handy in an emergency.

Having stored the dragon sword and fish spear in his inventory, and strapped the standard imperial dagger Kyle had used to his waist, Ian headed to the carriage with Kenneths dagger last.

?! Lucis eyes grew wide as he held the dagger out to her. Its mine?!

Im not showing it to you for fun and games. Only draw it in truly perilous situations. Otherwise, Ill just take it back.

Yes! Luci nodded and received the dagger.

Im already feeling anxious.

As Ian licked his lips, Miguels voice seeped into his ear.

If you look closely, it seems you nag more than you appear to. Lucis not a little kid or anything anymore, she knows stuff instinctively Ahem.

Miguel let out an awkward cough as he met Ians gaze.

He quickly walked over to the carriage and continued.

So what are you planning to do now?

We need to move faster.

How?Ians eyes turned sideways.

! Meeting his gaze, Miguels eyes soon widened as well.

It was because two armored warhorses, reins still attached, had finally entered their vision.

The magic stones embedded in the armor were still glinting.
