With the first wave, the non-human Steel Body unleashed the purest destructive force, instantly piercing through the body of the Nightmare Sage, blasting out several holes, which then imdiately reford in an instant.
With the second wave, the thief gave it no ti to catch its breath, and before the Nightmare Sage could even react, its not fully solidified form was split into two again.
Under the threat of death, this magic creature of the fantasy species instinctively tried to retreat, but the prosthetic body operating under overload emitted the most piercing buzzing sound yet,
The high heat from the magic power flowing within caused the sheets to spontaneously ignite.
With the activation of magic power, the thief’s five fingers split and elongated like tendrils turning into an impenetrable silver mist, completely enveloping the Nightmare Sage.
With the third wave, the Fog Silver Hand precisely drove the disintegrating magic power into the Nightmare Sage’s body, tearing it to pieces inch by inch.
[Nightmare Sage initiates skill: Dream Awakening (Excess damage *3)]
[Due to transformation form, each excess damage will deduct one round of action, Nightmare’s transformation remaining ti: 1 round]
Just at the first encounter, this sudden assault pushed the Nightmare Sage’s transformation to the brink of dissipation.
Just a mont ago, it was envisioning a grand future, yet in the blink of an eye, it was thrust to the brink of life and death; such extre highs and lows, even with the Sage’s wisdom, caused a montary blank in its mind.
But death so near offers no leniency, nor will the deranged Avenger show any rcy.
However, the overloaded prosthetic body isn’t driven by obsession and hatred, and after the first round of extre output, the thief’s movents inevitably slowed, giving the Nightmare Sage ti to take its next action.

♛: Begging
‘Must return to the main body first——’
Knowing there wasn’t much ti to hesitate, the Nightmare Sage’s etheric body, so phantom-like that it was nearly transparent, dispersed into countless threads of mist, escaping from the silver mist’s enclosure, and surged back into that frail human body through the girl’s facial orifices.
This transformation was condensed with nearly all the magic power she painstakingly gathered during this ti and bore her consciousness. If it were directly dispersed, her main body would be left as a lamb for the slaughter.
Even though using this frail girl’s flesh to confront this overly modified legendary ntal illness was not a good strategy, she had no other choice now.
The girl on the hospital bed suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes slightly red, tears shimring, as she let out a cry tinged with sobs:
“Wait, don’t kill !”
[Nightmare Girl’s Begging (Attribute Suppression 30, 120 Check, 240 Success)]
D174=(94) 30=124
Hearing the girl’s weak plea for rcy, the Avenger’s actions slowed slightly, a trace of hesitation flickering in his blood-red eyes.
But that hesitation was fleeting, as he fiercely leaped onto the bed, unhesitatingly reaching out with both hands, gripping the girl’s slender neck tightly.
“Ugh, ack——”
The Nightmare Girl wanted to continue pleading, but her breath was rcilessly cut off, leaving only painful whimpers from the depths of her throat.
Her hands trembled, instinctively trying to pry away the hands gripping her neck.
Just at that mont, a brilliant light flashed in her eyes.
——Touched it!
The next mont, the Nightmare’s spiritual power, having once transcended life and death, discreetly probed into the depths of the other’s soul along the touch to the skin.
From that fragnted spiritual body, she saw it.
The ancient ruins.
The trustworthy companions, with whom he could entrust his back.
And the beloved girl, smiling like a flower.
Fras of scenes flashed by.
In the gentle night, the thief sat by the flickering campfire, quietly watching over the sleeping companions with a gentle gaze.
However, the next mont, countless nightmares surged forth from the dark void.
The Nightmare King, having long set a trap, led the swarm out from their nest, instantly swallowing the sleeping adventurers.
The legendary thief, unable even to utter a warning, lost consciousness under the collective hypnotism of the nightmares.
Yet before falling asleep, instinct honed by a thousand hamring and refining, allowed him in the last mont to activate Shadow Jump, stealthily entering the sub-plane of shadows.
Then, it was an endless nightmare.
When he finally awoke from slumber and escaped from the shadow plane, he was confronted with a scene he had witnessed countless tis in his dreams: his companions, his beloved, tortured to death by the nightmare.
Nightmares turned into reality, reality turned into nightmares, and there was never a day when he could wake up again.
Although the thief ultimately survived, he was left with deep wounds, his realm falling from legendary, never able to stealth into the shadows again.
——What a fragile soul!
If so, with a little guidance based on this mory, hypnotism could easily succeed!
[Nightmare Girl initiates skill: Dream Traveler (138 Success, can remove resistance to Cyber ntal Illness and initiate hypnotism)]
D215=52
Catching the human’s riddled mind, the Nightmare Girl elatedly prepared to proceed to the next step, completely manipulating the other’s consciousness.
