Chapter 494: Underestimated

Victor soon entered the road enclosed by the woods and continued to run deeply even in the heavy rain. The wind howled loudly as the leaves scattered from the branches and fell.

At that mont, the rain also started going more fiercely and splattered on his face while blocking his sight.

'Damn it; I didn't expect that soone would dare to sneak into the Holy See to steal the Holy Book! Which organization did she belong to?! Deceivers? Or, Druid's Guild?' He felt that only those two would dare to do sothing reckless like this.

He wiped the splashing rainwater on his face and continued to run.

But just as he moved one kiloter away from the Holy See, he suddenly halted his footsteps and squinted his eyes.

At that mont, he saw a silhouette standing in the middle of the road and blocking his path.

The silhouette was the woman with long black hair and dressed in a black-covered poncho!

"Who are you?" He asked in a deep tone.

Simultaneously, he gripped the wooden staff in his hand and pointed the tip at her.

In the anti, Irzoch panted heavily and showed a forced smile on her face.

"My identity didn't matter, Mister. As long as I can stall you-"

Before she could finish her words, the whole surroundings started to turn chilly all of a sudden. At that mont, she saw an uncontrollable amount of ice-elental energy coming out of Victor's two unique rings and even started freezing the rainwaters!

Before she could back away, Bishop Victor made a cold smirk and muttered.

"Cold Burst!"

The next instant, the surrounding ice elental energies gathered at the wooden staff's tip and ford into a ball of snow.

Although Irzoch wasn't impressed by that snowball, she didn't dare to let her guard down and tried to move towards the left side.

At that mont, a bang sound ca from the front, followed by a sharp pain.

Before Irzoch could understand the situation, she was already flying in mid-air!

Moreover, a tearing pain ca from her left-side shoulder and caused her to shriek in pain.

She crashed on the ice-layer-covered dirt road the next second and felt a suffocative feeling inside. She tried to open her mouth to scream but couldn't!

Only then did she realize that her left side arm was nowhere to be seen!

No, she saw that her severed arm appeared five ters away from her and seed to have turned into pure crystalline ice.

'Even my flesh and bones turned into pure ice?! What the hell is that?' She was horrified inside.

While she was staring at the crystalline hand in shock, it started to make creaking noise and soon broke into multiple pieces before dissolving into the small powders!

'Wait... Why do my arms feel so numb?' She subconsciously turned towards her side and soon stiffened up.

At that mont, she saw that whitish foam-like snow froze the severed area, and that strange ice was even spreading towards her shoulder!

'I'm going to die!' A deep sense of dread appeared in her eyes for the first ti.

It all happened in re two seconds, which caused her face to go pale in fright!

anwhile, Bishop Victor adjusted his trench coat, looked in her direction, and asked in a calm tone.

"Any last words?"

Even though his voice appeared more like a calm one, a strange sense of chilling sensation invaded her heart, sending a shiver down her spine!

"You don't want to say any last words? Then, die peacefully then." His mocking voice echoed in her ears.

Irzoch wanted to stand up and run, but not a single muscle moved from her body. It was as if her body had already accepted its fate.

As Victor was about to cast another spell to finish her off, the whole ground started to rumble all of a sudden, and soon tens of eerie black vines popped out of the dirt road. They then slithered here and there like real snakes and even released so strange spores in the air.

Not only that, so vines suddenly sprouted reddish flowers and shot acid-like balls at Victor.

anwhile, Bishop Victor retracted the wooden stick, evaded the acid balls, and backed away hurriedly.

Although he had powerful divine artifacts under his sleeves, he was not all that powerful at all!

He was just a Saint Knight!

In truth, even that kind of achievent in just two years was almost an impossible task.

Thankfully, his previous life experience gave him a big boost.

'It seems I have no choice but to go all out.' He would never give up the Holy Book that changed his life forever.

At that mont, an erald-haired woman in her twenties walked out of the woods and arrived beside Irzoch.

"Why did you confront him head-on? Didn't 'His Majesty' warn us not to underestimate him?" lody asked while glaring at her.

anwhile, Irzoch bit her lips in frustration and shook her head.

"L-Leave. He is too strong even for you."

In truth, lody wasn't sure about her current strength. But what she did know was that she could at least hold against him for more than a minute or two.

"Don't worry-"

Before lody could respond, thousands of flashes of bluish lightning arcs appeared in the cloudy sky all of a sudden and caused the whole world to brighten.

Even Bishop Victor was stunned by the lightning flashes and got confused inside.

"What are they?" He asked with a frown and shifted his gaze towards the Holy See.

At that mont, he saw an enormous blackish fireball that appeared above the Holy See and started to expand at an unimaginable rate!

"Black Sun!" A low mutter ca out of Victor's mouth.

The next instant, an image of a fla demon appeared in the deepest part of his mind.

He thought of turning around and moving towards the Holy See but stopped.

He knew that his enemy was not the Fla Demon but these two people.

'Moreover, Holy Book is more important than killing that Fla Demon!' He thought.

On the other hand, lody took a deep breath and muttered in a gloomy voice.

"Nature Domain Expansion!"

Just as she muttered, the whole surrounding shook violently as an invisible ripple spread out from her body and started breaking everything like glasses.

The dark sky also turned brighter the next second, and it soon appeared as clear as a greenish-blue one. Instead of the sun, only a rainbow appeared in the center sky and brightened the surrounding in different colors.

The entire scenery got much clearer as lody's Domain spell caused her vision to beco clearer. What appeared before her eyes was a large forest that seed to be covered with many dark blue vines. Moreover, those vines were extrely thick, and they seed to be growing from the cracks of the ground!

lody felt that her body had grown more powerful. Even the air around her felt so light, and she could hold it in her palms. Also, her arms felt even heavier than before, making her legs stiffen!

'Is this the advantage of creating a perfect domain?' She felt like her power had grown tenfolds now!

Alas, she didn't dare to take the enemy lightly and stared at Bishop Victor with wary eyes.

In the anti, Bishop Victor was also much surprised by the sudden change in environnt and soon realized his situation.

'She is a Rank-5 Druid!'

The earlier carefree attitude was now replaced with a deadly serious one. In Victor's eyes, Rank-5 Sorcerers and Druids were just a step below the level of Pope!

'They are equally or more powerful than Awakens! But there are only a few of them in the whole mainland, right? Why haven't I heard of this Rank-5 Druid in the past?' He felt puzzled inside.

On the other hand, lody squatted down a little, placed her hand on Irzoch's wounded arm, and cast an advanced nature spell to stop the whitish snow from spreading further.

Then, he manipulated the vines, covered all over Irzoch, and hid inside her domain.

After that, she shifted her attention towards Bishop Victor and got ready for the battle.
