Defeating the Grand Mage

After the end of a suffocating conversation, a battle to defeat Astroa had begun

It was one versusspells! Stop hiic!"

"Archer squad! Ordinary arroon’t work! Bring souards frohts and priests froic! Always look at hisaround hiain!"

"Step forward if you can use the Aura Blade technique! Cut downat us!"

Considering the fact that there was Ian with his sword drawn, Priesia using her holy powers, and even Nainiae launching arrays of sic attacks, an ordinary man would have died several times over by now in face of their combined firepower

"Injured! Priest sir, we have an injured here!"

"Hey! Fire, fire! Your back’s on fire you rascal!"

"Ugh! My arm! My arm won’t move!"

If one was to point out a proble against a grand e that represented a city

He wasn’t an ordinary level ic specialist

"Huh! Staring at iving a blank stare towards hislike Three CirclesAstroa’s arm movement, several dozens of flame and ice arroere created behind hi to recite the spells"

The sky was dark because it was night-tiic attacks Astroa generated

"Ugh…"

Solia Castle’s royal guards and the people froic attacks that were about to be poured down on them like rain They opened and closed theirto realize whoainst

"When you are in Hell, blarave"

As if he was done with the preparation for his bombardment, Astroa murmured as he lowered his arm

"Here they coic arroere launched towards the ground, Priesia took a step forward and raised her arht surrounded her, and soon, a protective layer wide enough to surround everyone within Astroa’s boe appeared

Unlike the blue-colored barriers that olden and contained holy power

"Oh!"

Fire and ice arrows rained down on theic arrows

The expression on the priestess’ face was as strong and enduring as always

"…"

"Tsk"

Having confiric attacks were blocked, Astroa clicked his tongue

She was annoying the hell out of hih she would not be able to inflict serious har at his eyes

"Archer squad! What are you doing? Stop sitting on your asses! Take ai vacant stares and watching the priestess’ , they fumbled, placed arrows in their bows and took ai in the air, was their target

"Ihtly drastrings, Astroa directed his gaze toward the archers He prepared his mana, pointed his hand at the direction where the arroould be launched from, and recited a spell

"…Shoot!"

All arroere launched with ferocity Although they were launched

"Wind Wave!"

None of the arroere able to hit the target The arroere either swept away by the wind and fell to the ground or were cut in half by invisible blades

It was because Astroa used the windthe atteuards clicked his tongue It was because they had noin the air other than with arrows

‘Froy blade attack, but there is a li a short-distance teleportation spell, the situation will turn for worse for us I can’t afford to be reckless’

It was not like the captain had no otherin the air

He could launch an energy blade to a et It was a technique that could be considered his most powerful attack There was a drawback, which was a severe drain of mana Because of this, there was a liy blade attacks

‘God damn it! If only we had just one of the bow masters…’

Because of a situation, Solia Castle’s bow master was on a ht about the bow ritted his teeth

‘If this keeps up, there will be no end to this’

With an anxious look on his face, the captain looked toward the direction where the people fro at where Nainiae was

‘It looks like it will be also difficult to count on our little friend there’

Unlike the tough looking scars on her face, still, the best way to describe her would have been ‘frail’

Although she was standing still, expression on her face looked like she could collapse out of exhaustion at anynoticed this, the captain’s face darkened

At theTeleport, which he tried occasionally

‘God damn it, there is no end to this’

Just like the Solia Castle’s royal guard captain, Astora was also scrunching his face as he thought about the sa

Because of the priestess’ Barrier and constant healing by the temple priests, there have not been any lethal casualties

Astroa could not be certain if he would run out of mana first or if the priestess would run out of her holy power first

Astroa cracked his neck left and right and said,

"In that case, I think I had enough of getting warmed up"

"…"

Priesia’s face crumpled Astroa said,

"It’s about ti one"

Astroa pulled his upper body back and raised both of his hands above his head

It appeared like he was preparing for a h the ho mana, even they could see distortions in the air around Astroa

"Inferno Ball"

The object was beyond red-hot A lump of flame, which appeared to be like lava out of a volcano, appeared above Astora’s palht sky all of sudden

Because of its blinding brightness, Priesia squinted, and at the sa his hands wide

"Kuk…"

As she opened her hand and raised it to generate a barrier once again, Priesia cringed It was because the heat was extraordinary

The flame had not even touched the barrier yet, but she was already furrowing her eyebrows due to its intense heat Looking at her reaction, others could guess just hoerful the ic Why don’t you try taking one?"

Priesia had not had a ceremony for her adulthood yet It alsoand she was not a full-fledged priestess yet

Of course, her barrier had a lirunted as she took a step back

Fortunately, the barrier was being maintained, but it looked critical

"…How about I send you another one?"

Astroa pulled his hands toward his chest and started to recite a spell again

Pazizizik!

Blue lightning sparks forrow

It looked like Astroa was intending to launch Six Circles ic attacks continuously

"…Shoot!"

As if they were trying to say that they weren’t just going to sit and watch, Solia Castle’s archers went around to a side, tightly pulled the bowstrings with all of their strength, and launched the arrows upon the signal
