Forest

Link stood steadily on the ground. Blue haze wrapped around him, covering his body.

His Dragon Power limit had reached 17000 points. One point was equal to five Mana points for humans. This meant he had 85000 Mana points in total.

The magnitude of this was unbelievable. Only five people in all of Firuman had power of a larger scale than Link—the Red Dragon Queen, Bryant, Dark Magician Eugene, Light Magician Halino, and Shadow Walker Morpheus.

The three High Elves before him had only broken past Level-10. Their power wasn’t even one-fourth of Link’s. If converted to Dragon Power, they had 4000 points at most. They couldn’t even be compared.

Regardless of power, Link’s knowledge of magic was on a completely different scale too.

The High Elves lived on the Isle of Dawn, the home of magic. They’d practiced magic for more than 30 years too. From this, they should be masters, but this wasn’t so.

Life on the Isle of Dawn was too peaceful. There was no pressure and obviously, no motivation either. The High Elves mostly studied due to their own interests.

It was different for Link though. He was putting in his all every second of the day.

Link had only studied magic for two years, but he’d received tips from various strong figures—the Red Dragon Queen, the exiled god, Bryant’s Revelations Scroll, the God of Light’s rewards, and more. He even learned martial arts and was at the point of starting his own school.

Right now, Link was skilled in every aspect. His abilities were immeasurable.

As for the magic equipment, it went without saying too. As the lord of Ferde, he was rich and didn’t lack any materials. Combining the ones he’d made and received by chance, he had at least six Legendary pieces of equipment. The High Elves were geniuses of their race. Though they had more than enough equipment, they couldn’t be compared to a territory’s lord. If this was a physical distance, the High Elves probably had to use a telescope to see Link.

He had the absolute advantage in every aspect.

Even if Evelina came down from the tree and joined the battle, fighting four against one, Link still had no fear. He was confident in ending the battle within two seconds.

On the other hand, the three High Elves thought they could win this gamble too.

It was like a joke. Link would stand there without moving and let them attack. They also had the advantage of attacking first. And instead of defeating him, they only had to make him move his feet. If they couldn’t even do that, they’d be humiliated.

“Lord, we will start now. Get ready,” Elovan reminded before starting. He thought it was too easy for them this time. He had to be polite.

Link wanted to shake his head. These High Elves were too young and hadn’t experienced the cruelty of the world. If he was in their place, he would find a chance for a surprise attack instead of saying this.

He just stood in place without using any defense spells. “Stop wasting time and do it.”

As soon as he spoke, Elovan, Sonya, and Milose moved at once. They used the Black-Gold Thorn, their most powerful and handiest trick.

Boom, boom, boom. Three poisonous black vines, thick as one’s fist and gleaming gold, broke through the ground. Like pythons, they came for Link from different directions.

The spell was similar to what they did to Evelina, but the force was different.

Against Evelina, they’d still held back, thus letting Evelina escape. But against Link, they didn’t dare go easy on him. They used all their power at once.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. The three vines attacked together with extreme speed. The air cracked with wind and thunder. Poisonous thorns sprouted from the vines. The vines waved at the same time, and the thorns swarmed towards Link like wasps.

The three vines and clouds of thorns blocked all of Link’s escape routes.

Every thorn flashed with emerald light. This was the toxin. Once inside Link’s body, he would be affected no matter how powerful he was unless he had the High Elves’ antidote. Even if he didn’t die, his combat abilities would be decimated.

Seeing this, Evelina clapped her hand over her mouth and cried softly, “It’s over.”

The Black-Gold Thorn was the High Elves’ best trick. The seeds of the vines were from the Level-18 World Tree and nurtured by Natural magic. Their attributes were very special. Other than Natural magic, practically no other magic could equalize them. They were also extremely sturdy, with an excellent resistance to magic. To them, iron was as fragile as paper. Shields below Level-11 practically didn’t exist before them.

Faced with an attack like this, even the most powerful Warrior would commit suicide. Magicians only had one solution: use a spell to escape.
