Two minutes earlier.
From the summit, Marvin coldly watched those three people surrounding Wayne. The snowy wind was biting cold, so they might have been able to see Marvin, but the line of sight wasn’t that great.
But Marvin, towering above them, was still more or less able to see them clearly.
He had made Wayne choose that kind of spell setup. If they really fought now, Wayne would definitely not be their opponent!
Because Marvin’s setup was too extreme!
Thus, Wayne could only run.
‘Wayne has so much faith in me, I can’t disappoint him.’
‘Whatever, let’s gamble! In any case, I have good balance. I don’t believe my luck will keep being bad!’
A decisive expression flashed through Marvin’s eyes.
Most of the things that happened since he transmigrated could be considered as being dealt with through meticulous plans, steadily carrying them out. He had the experience after all.
But today he had no choice but to take a risk.
Because Wayne fell into such a dangerous situation after trusting him. In any case, Wayne was the one that needed protecting!
”Let’s go!”
Marvin took a deep breath and suddenly ran to that shield on the ground!
Indeed, the shield!
The two meter tall shield was still there after the Guardian’s death!
That shield wasn’t too heavy. It was because the Guardian didn’t expect to meet people with great physical power in the Battle of the Holy Grail. At the same time, there would be three Wizards, so he chose a shield with relatively good Magic Resistance.
Thus Marvin’s strength was barely enough to raise it!
But doing any quick maneuvers with it would be totally impossible. After all, his strength was too low.
He pushed the shield to the edge of the snowy slope and adjusted the orientation.
He then suddenly gave it one last shove and jumped on it!
That’s right, Marvin was using the shield as a sledge, wildly sliding down the steep slope!
That was a crazy gamble.
Marvin’s balance was very good and his dexterity was also very high, but sledding wasn’t that simple.
If there was a broken tree stump hidden in the slope… The consequences would be disastrous!
...
And when Kate saw Marvin jumping from the summit, she almost cried out!
”Too dangerous!” She couldn’t help but mutter.
”What happened?” Lohart looked at Kate, somewhat surprised.
Kate realized she had lost her composure and slightly shook her head.
Lohart was puzzled. But when he turned to look back at the other screen, he froze on the spot!
Because on the magic screen, a shadow was rushing down the mountain as fast as lightning. He arrived near those three in less than a minute!
That was too fast!
”What happened?” Lohart leapt up from his seat in an instant, alarmed!
His eyes widened, his reaction even more extreme than Kate’s!
...
Marvin was riding the shield, trying to keep his balance.
Snow kept splashing on his face on his way down, along with some bits of ice!
”Woosh!” ”Woosh!”
His face had a few deep cuts.
The shield was sliding faster and faster!
Marvin firmly opened his eyes, letting the snow blow against his eyelashes. He tenaciously locked onto Wayne’s position!
He struggled to keep the shield steady, crazily sliding toward the people below.
In an instant, he reached the edge of the slope, approaching that ledge they were on!
”Wayne!” He roared!
The loud voice instantly startled the three people. But Marvin came too fast, and they were caught unprepared.
Before they could react, the shield carried Marvin right past them!
At the last moment, Marvin displayed his Rope Master abilities.
The Wishful Rope in his hand was simply omnipotent.
A simple tug and Wayne was pulled to the ”sledge”!
The two brothers immediately disappeared down the slope over the end of the ledge.
Three people were left behind, totally dumbstruck!
...
The audience watching the magic screen was frantic.
They didn’t think this year’s Battle of the Holy Grail would actually start in such a wonderful way.
”Heavens! I was actually able to see such a crazy move…”
”He actually made it! He made it! Damn… Is that Baron Marvin a sledding expert?”
”His rope skills are also amazing! I have to ask him for some advice later!”
”Too smart! You see those three competitors’ faces, they have no expression at all, as if they met a ghost!”
A few young nobles couldn’t help but cheer for Marvin’s move!
The others were watching, excited!
Though it had been less than two minutes, everyone’s eyes were focused on Marvin’s body.
It felt as if the other competitors turned into supporting characters in that moment.
The audience carefully watched Marvin, wanting to see what else that shocking guy could do!
...
”Very creative.” Hathaway’s eyes shone.
Marvin’s move was definitely beyond her expectations. No one thought that the Guardian’s shield could actually be used like that!
