I Want You Dead!

He recognized this young man.

When the poisoning incident at the Qingxin Tavern occurred, he had been watching from a corner.

Therefore, he had personally witnessed this mysterious young man ruin the old Pope’s plan with just a few words.

Afterward, this person had inexplicably become a Dragon-Slaying Guard.

Alvin didn’t know how this person had gotten involved with his own daughter.

Or how he had even managed to convince her to change her arrangements.

‘It seems it’s necessary to keep an eye on him.’

…

On the other side!

“It’s not over!”

After repelling Ivo, Black shouted in a low voice.

“Summoning! Hammerhead Sea Dragon! Sea Lion Dragon!”

A dazzling blue light blossomed on the ground, and two pillars of water shot into the sky. The massive bodies of the Sea Lion Dragon and the Hammerhead Sea Dragon gradually solidified.

The two sea dragons roared and pounced at Ivo.

“Summoning? You know Summoner skills too?!”

Ivo’s black pupils trembled.

He had to admit, Black was far more difficult to deal with than he had anticipated.

“Ghost Blade!”

He swung his scythe, sending out waves of shadow blades, and became entangled in a fight with the two sea dragons.

Black controlled the two sea dragons with precision from the rear.

After a few rounds, the two sea dragons had sustained many wounds, and their momentum had weakened considerably.

In contrast, Ivo was still fighting with ease.

‘I really did underestimate him.’

Black frowned slightly. Ivo was different from any opponent he had faced before.

The weapon in his hand was a six-star weapon, and the boost it provided to his combat power was significant.

The Overlord Spear was also a six-star weapon, and Black had relied on it to fight above his level before.

Facing Ivo, who was also equipped with a six-star weapon, his advantage was completely gone.

“In that case…”

“Spirit Touch!”

Black formed hand seals, his mental energy highly focused as he chanted an obscure incantation.

Golden runes appeared out of thin air, winding around the two struggling sea dragons like living things.

A blinding blue light erupted. The two sea dragons suddenly began to twist and merge, and a more powerful, more ancient aura filled the air.

A moment later, the light dissipated, and the Azure Sea Dragon revealed its form.

Its level had impressively reached 45, the same as Ivo’s!

“Magic-Spirit Saint Body? Impossible!”

Ivo’s expression changed drastically. Being able to use a Summoner’s oracle meant that Black could convert spiritual power into magical power!

Before Ivo could recover, the Azure Sea Dragon had already launched its attack.

Its massive dragon tail swept over, and the gale it created made Ivo’s skin tingle.

He hurriedly dodged and attacked with his scythe, only to find that the Azure Sea Dragon’s defense was far superior to the previous sea dragons, and the effect of his attacks was greatly diminished.

Black planned to end the fight quickly and immediately activated the Azure Sea Dragon’s strongest skill!

“Deep Sea Vortex!”

The Azure Sea Dragon flapped its massive wings, stirring up a powerful hurricane.

At the same time, it opened its mouth and spewed a huge column of water into the hurricane!

The raging hurricane, combined with the high-pressure water column, transformed into a destructive vortex dozens of meters in diameter!

Wherever it passed, giant trees were torn to shreds, and deep trenches were plowed into the ground.

This was a powerful C-tier skill!

“Hiss!”

Before the vortex even arrived, Ivo’s hands were already cut by the water droplets, drawing blood.

“Bleeding… I’m bleeding…”

“Ahhh! You dare to make me bleed!!!”

Ivo’s expression was incredibly savage, as if he was about to go insane!

He wanted to tear Black to shreds right now!

But… this vortex was too terrifying!

His face hardened, and without hesitation, he tore open a magic scroll.

“Demon-Sealing Art!”

A high-tier magic shield!

A hemispherical shield shimmering with blue runes instantly enveloped him.

This type of shield was specifically designed to defend against magic-type attacks and had an extremely high magic resistance!

An ordinary high-tier spell would be completely unable to break it.

Of course, the price was also ridiculously expensive, something only the great noble houses could afford.

However, this move by Ivo was exactly what Black had been waiting for.

He was waiting for the moment Ivo used a defensive scroll!

The destructive torrent of energy from the Deep Sea Vortex crashed against the magic shield, causing intense ripples, but it couldn’t shake the shield in the slightest.

“Heh, is that all you’ve got?”

Ivo sneered, but his expression quickly froze.

Because Black’s figure had disappeared.

The water mist kicked up by the Deep Sea Vortex had concealed him.

Just as Ivo was starting to panic, Black moved!

He was already poised to strike. The speed boost from his Flow state allowed him to rapidly approach Ivo from the flank!

While a high-tier magic shield could effectively defend against magical attacks.

Its effectiveness against purely physical attacks was greatly reduced!

And as it happened, Black was not just a Summoner.

In the next second, Black had already appeared in front of Ivo!

“Not good!”

Only then did Ivo catch sight of Black, his pupils constricting.

He realized he had made a fatal mistake!

He wanted to raise his scythe to block, but in his haste, it was already too late!

Black’s eyes were icy cold. The blood-colored light on his spear surged once again.

He concentrated all his strength into the tip of the spear and, like a bolt of lightning, thrust at the weakest point of the magic shield!

Oracle: Blood Prison Spear!

“Crack!”

A sound like shattering glass rang out, and the magic shield broke!

The Overlord Spear continued its momentum. Although most of its power had been consumed by the shield, the shaft still slammed viciously into Ivo’s chest!

“Pfft!”

Ivo was hit as if by a heavy blow. He spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward like a broken kite.

He crashed heavily to the ground and rolled several times before stopping.

Humiliation! Unprecedented humiliation!

Ivo struggled to get up, his chest aching, his clothes torn, and his face covered in dirt and blood, a truly pathetic sight.

He stared at Black, the venom and madness in his eyes almost overflowing.

“Ahhhhhh! I want you dead! I want you dead!!!”

He let out an inhuman roar and fell into a complete frenzy.

Holding nothing back, the spiritual power in his body erupted without reserve.

Waves of spiritual power burned around him like boiling black flames!

He charged at Black, no longer dodging, trading injury for injury, his scythe slashing wildly!

‘Just like in the game, the crazier he gets, the stronger his combat power becomes.’

Knowing this person’s characteristics well, Black chose to avoid the brunt of his attack and retreated behind the Azure Sea Dragon.

“Shadow Frenzy!”

Having fallen into a frenzy, Ivo’s combat power soared once again!

His attacks became chaotic and even more deadly.

Each one was filled with a suicidal determination.

Although the Azure Sea Dragon had a lot of health, under this life-or-death assault, wounds began to appear on its massive body.

Azure-blue blood dripped continuously.

Finally, with a piercing dragon roar, Ivo took a heavy blow from the Azure Sea Dragon’s claw.

He poured the maximum amount of spiritual power into his scythe and slammed it viciously into the Azure Sea Dragon’s head!

“Reaper’s Scythe!”

The Azure Sea Dragon’s massive body froze, then collapsed with a roar, dissipating into a sky full of blue light particles.
