His forward Flight stopped. As the dazzling light dissipated, there was no longer any sign of Quin Essey in front.
In the empty, vast sky, there was nothing, except for the strong wind that blew from time to time; there wasn't even a sound.
Lyle hovered in mid-air, observing his surroundings with sharp eyes. He did not possess detection magic, so he could not determine Quin Essey's location after he turned invisible. Even if he did possess such magic, Lyle guessed that Quin Essey would have countermeasures.
Which direction did he escape to?
No!
A sharp glint flashed in Lyle's eyes. Based on Quin Essey's performance just now, it certainly looked like he was fleeing, but the other party's third class was [Hunter].
Facing the pursuit of a Magic Chanter, increasing distance was not the right choice. If Lyle were Quin Essey, then the real thing to do after turning invisible was not to run away, but—
"Minds Eye!" Lyle whispered inwardly.
Invisible perception spread from himself as the center to the surroundings, forming a perception space with a diameter of about five meters.
Silently! Quin Essey's invisible figure had already circled behind Lyle, a purple, venom-coated dagger appearing in his hand.
"Marsh Crocodile's Powerful Jaw Strike!" Quin Essey's gaze was cold as he stabbed heavily towards the center of Lyle's back.
Die!
Bang. White points of light condensed, and a Third Tier Flame Archangel appeared behind Lyle.
Crack! The purple dagger easily tore through the silver-white armor on the Flame Archangel and pierced through it, causing the Flame Archangel to dissipate into points of light.
And Lyle, with the help of the Flame Archangel's brief obstruction, used the methods of a Magic Chanter to re-establish distance.
[Orb of Death: 50 → 25 / 280]
"Dragon Lightning!" Lyle raised both hands, and dazzling blue lightning gathered between his arms, condensing into a Dragon-shaped thunderbolt that blasted fiercely.
"Petrification Lizard's Protection!" Quin Essey's crimson eyes widened as he retreated from his invisible state and roared.
A layer of Rock-like scales appeared all over his body. Boom!
"Ah!!" Blinding electric light enveloped Quin Essey, who let out a painful grunt as the petrified scales on his skin turned scorched black.
"You are really persistent, Goldilocks." Seeing the other party forcibly withstand this magic attack, Lyle's eyelids twitched as he spoke loudly.
The stored mana in the "Orb of Death" was down to only 25 points, enough to use one more Fifth Tier spell. This was the first time he had encountered a situation where all the mana in the "Orb of Death" was exhausted in a single battle.
"Who on earth are you!" Quin Essey's petrified scales disappeared, revealing large areas of burn marks. His expression was twisted in pain as he growled: "There is absolutely no existence with your level of strength in any of the countries."
Click—a ring on Quin Essey's right hand made a soft sound and shattered between his fingers.
"Crimson Owl's Flash Strike!" Quin Essey, holding the purple dagger, ignored his injuries and spoke viciously.
Swish! Quin Essey's figure disappeared again, but this time it wasn't Invisibility; he appeared out of thin air behind Lyle in a bizarre way. This time, he appeared closer and faster!
But, under the ability of "Minds Eye," Lyle immediately sensed Quin Essey appearing out of thin air behind him and condensed a translucent wind-attribute spear in mid-air.
"Hurricane Knight Spear!" Lyle didn't need to turn around; the Hurricane Knight Spear in front of him had already been thrown.
Whoosh! The Hurricane Knight Spear kicked up a violent airflow shockwave and instantly collided with Quin Essey, who had appeared behind Lyle.
At such close range, with the speed erupted by the Hurricane Knight Spear, even if Quin Essey had a ring in his hand that could deflect magic attacks, he simply couldn't dodge in time.
Boom! The Hurricane Knight Spear pierced through Quin Essey's chest, the powerful destructive force almost tearing his body in two. Blood and flesh splattered in the air!
"Ah!!!" Quin Essey let out a scream and smashed heavily into the ground. Facing the arrival of death, his deep red pupils, which were beginning to dilate, struggled to look at the blurry figure hovering above.
"Things can't be hidden anymore, perhaps I can muddle through." This thought flashed through Quin Essey's mind, and then a vicious smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Heh, you will soon understand... exactly what you have provoked."
Boom! A loud noise came from the jungle, and a deep pit appeared on the ground. Lyle was briefly stunned because Quin Essey had offered absolutely no resistance to the final Hurricane Knight Spear attack.
"Damn it!" Lyle reacted and quickly descended. He found Quin Essey lying in the deep pit; his chest had been completely torn apart by the Hurricane Knight Spear, with only the skin on both sides barely connecting, not having completely dismembered him.
At this moment! The other party's aura was already so weak it was barely detectable. Without a moment's hesitation, he took out bottle after bottle of Regeneration Potion and poured them onto him as if they were worthless.
If Quin Essey died, the Slane Theocracy would definitely know, especially the God-kin Captain of the [Black Scripture], who was responsible for the resurrection matters of the entire team. And there was the most troublesome "Thousand Mile Astrologer"!
That detection-type Magic Chanter who wore a uniform similar to a high school student's. There were no high school uniforms in this other world; that outfit on her was very likely equipment or an item left behind by the six great gods.
In the anime, she was able to lock onto and observe the battlefield of the Kingdom from a long distance, so she naturally also had the ability to lock onto the Great Wetlands.
