[Ophelia's POV]
Ophelia stretched out her hand, already preparing to invoke [Warp]. She only needed to appear before Scholar Ruvian and cast [Spatial Displacement], just as she had done before. But before the spell could fully manifest, something abruptly shot into her path.
Mamveth materialized squarely in front of her. His clawed hand lunged toward her face with blistering speed, forcing Ophelia to dismiss [Warp] and wrench her head aside. His claws tore through the air only inches from her cheek.
Ophelia immediately spun along her axis and drove a kick into his chest. Mamveth raised one arm to block it, yet the sheer force still sent him skidding backward through the air. Before she could unleash another spell, however, his laughter reached her ears.
"Kukuku… surprised?" Mamveth steadied himself in the air, a vicious grin spreading across Julian's face. "I am no fool, Chancellor. It took me a while, but I have already found your real body."
Ophelia's eyes narrowed.
