When the Humans who destroyed their reliquary headed for the abandoned temple where Senichigua was located, the Lich was honestly relieved.
Senichigua is dubious, not weak. From the point of view of the lich who experienced the vast amount of magic, the human choice was no different from suicide.
“Like a stupid mortal, you crawled into your own death.”
That’s the reason why he overcame the wizard who stood in his way and didn’t chase after him. If he ran to find the remaining reliquary, he wouldn’t have had time to struggle with a mage like this.
The lich laughed heartily for the first time in a while, feeling deeply relieved that the presence threatening the reliquary had disappeared on its own.
“Now you guys will follow suit soon. Kekekekeke...keck!”
In the meantime, if Emmet hadn’t stabbed the gap that had arisen in the lich, he would have been able to laugh longer, but the old wizard didn’t allow an inch of error and destroyed the lich’s spell and reversed it, inflicting a blow.
“Don’t laugh. They say you can’t spit on a smiling face, but you don’t look that good.”
“If only your mouth is alive...!”
“What do you mean by becoming a rich and being able to do only that?”
In fact, the condition of Emmet, who is saying that, is not very good. He got used to breaking the magic and spells of the rich, but there was no way he could do anything about his mental strength, concentration, and stamina, which were being cut in real time.
“And I don’t know who crawled into death. Was he dreaming?”
Nevertheless, unlike the first time, the reason for mixing provocation is simple. Now, it’s not a problem that can be solved simply by Emmet’s enduring, but it’s because it’s reached the point where the confrontation can only be maintained when Rich loses his composure.
It can be regarded as a cheap provocation, but it is not a reckless attempt at a predicament.
The lich’s pride, which had never been able to complete proper magic due to his efforts, was on the verge of being shattered. it was number
“Ha! It’s only natural that I’m your comrade who ran to the place where the devil is! Could it be that a mere human race that has not reached transcendence can deal with the devil? And a devil who brought out all his abilities?”
Sure enough, as Emmet expected, Richie couldn’t hide his anger and raised his voice even more.
“It is said that it is amazing that the creatures created by the devil were identified and slaughtered! But that’s it! Now that you’ve touched the devil’s planting, all you have left is painful death and regret!”
Kereukkereukkereuk. It was a lich who rattled his chin and smiled really badly and showed a gap, but Emmet’s counterattack did not follow this time.
It was easier to pass the time by leaving the third-rate, which was originally unable to use its hands properly, but gained momentum and began to gain the upper hand and become conceited.
Understanding that silence is worth more than gold now, instead of getting on Richie’s nerves for nothing, Emmet paused and gave a short hand signal to Carl Kansi, who met his eyes.
It was a hand signal that adventurers almost used in common, so even though nothing had been said beforehand, Carl Kansi could understand it at once.
At the signal, run.
It happened so quickly and covertly that he didn’t notice it and took Emmet’s silence as just the frustration of someone who found out too late.
“Yes, despair! Desperate! You will slowly wither to death here! And be the cornerstone for my transcendence!”
As much as he was driven into an unexpected predicament, his magic was blocked by mortals and he was denied more than half of his years. In Rich’s head, who believed that he had gained the upper hand, although belatedly, the option to end it carefully and swiftly did not already exist.
And the lich mentally gnashed his teeth as he watched the scene from the frozen ice.
[[How dare you!!!]]
Emmet’s magic was obviously close to perfect.
However, as soon as black flames swirled around the lich, red light began to sway in the black eye sockets again, it melted in an instant. Beyond simply melting, the moisture evaporated without a chance for humidity to rise, creating a sound like water droplets falling on a heated iron plate.
Thanks to that, Karl Kansi, who habitually turned his head and looked at Richie, faced that chilling reaction and had to feel his heart sink for the first time in a long time.
“Mr. Emmet! He’s completely blind!”
So I informed Emmett, who was concentrating on flying without even turning his head, but the answer that came back was very vague.
“If you know, run faster! We have to join Eldmia!”
It was synonymous with the saying that we have no answer. In the end, Carl Kansi had no choice but to put aside the respect he had shown before and ask in a panic.
“Are you going to run away in the end after treating it like a half-penny, making your head angry?!”
“Isn’t it obvious! Even if you’re a half-penny who sold your soul to the devil, a lich is a lich! Destroy the reliquary or die!”
Yeah, it was definitely true.
It was a rather unfamiliar answer, probably because I was so used to Eldmia and Emmet’s activities. However, there was no time to feel sorry for the unsatisfactory answer.
[[I’ll burn them all down!!]]
The lich, who had completely escaped Emmet’s interference, was chasing after him with all the magic he hadn’t cast before.

I posted it as a notice, but the webcomic was turned over.
Maybe it’s because I’ve had experience working in the animation industry before. I vaguely know that webtoon production teams and companies these days are not very different, so I thought it was a predicted result from the moment the serialization was delayed... but I can’t hide my disappointment. It’s hard.
Still, I don’t really care.
Works like Dragon Raja also became comic books, but this is about it...
