“I… I did it…!”
Elise, having successfully snatched The Book of Plunder from Danas, revealed a joyful expression.
No one knew that Elise hadn’t actually entered the temple. After arriving, she chose to climb onto the roof, sneak over, and observe the situation inside through the skylight.
Since evil beings were constantly roaring and rushing out of the temple, even though Elise could observe their movements through prayer, she didn’t dare to enter through the main gate.
Shien and the others thought Elise had already entered the temple, but they forgot that this saintess was actually a scaredy-cat. How could she brazenly enter the temple knowing there were so many evil beings inside?
That would be like delivering herself to their doorstep.
Impossible.
Therefore, this timid saintess had a brilliant idea. She climbed onto the temple roof and waited for the right moment to strike.
And it had to be said that the timing Elise chose was perfect.
Thanks to this, Danas’s The Book of Plunder fell into Elise’s hands, the dark light on the book dimming instantly, losing its effect.
Seeing this, Danas’s eyes flashed with a sharp glint. He reached out and placed his hand on the small Warfighter’s shoulder.
A faint magic power fluctuation emanated from the small Warfighter, and several dark figures swooped down from above.
“Look out!”
“Saintess Elise!”
Oz and Maeve, who had been overjoyed, were now shocked and enraged upon seeing the situation.
“Ah!”
Elise exclaimed.
The dark figures swooping down from the sky were flying monsters.
With ferocious roars, they lunged at Elise.
Panicked, Elise tried to use magic against them.
Unfortunately, Elise’s level wasn’t high, only forty. She was no match for these monsters, whose levels ranged from fifty to sixty.
“Bang!”
Soon, with a crashing sound, Elise was knocked off the ceiling by a monster and fell into the temple.
“Saintess Elise!”
“Get away!”
Maeve and Oz’s eyes were bloodshot as they yelled, pushing through the surrounding evil beings, trying to reach Elise.
“Gaaaah…!”
“Uwaaaah…!”
However, the evil beings surrounding them seemed to have received instructions. Not only did their numbers increase, but they also became more ferocious, blocking the two beastmen priests, making their expressions even more furious. ꭆã₦ÒꞖĘs
Elise fell into the temple, crashing onto the floor, covered in dust.
Intense pain surged through her body.
“It hurts…”
Elise sobbed, tears welling up in her eyes, but she clutched the magic book tightly in her arms.
Then…
“I didn’t expect us to meet like this, Saintess Elise.”
A figure came to Elise, looking down at her as she lay on the ground, causing her body to stiffen.
“Excuse me, could you please return what belongs to me?”
Danas said calmly, still looking gentle and refined, but Elise felt a chill. Not only did she not comply, but she hugged the magic book even tighter.
Seeing this, Danas’s eyes turned cold. He raised his hand towards the small Warfighter beside him, and roaring evil beings slowly surrounded Elise.
“Don’t… don’t come any closer…!”
Elise, unable to suppress her fear, hugged the magic book and cried out.
“Stop!”
“Bastard!”
Maeve and Oz desperately tried to rush over, but they were repeatedly blocked by the evil beings, their faces filled with anxiety.
“Attack!”
Danas ordered emotionlessly, causing the evil beings to roar and pounce on Elise.
Elise was engulfed by the countless evil beings.
“Saintess Elise!”
“Aaaaaah!”
Maeve and Oz’s eyes turned red, their faces showing a hint of madness as they roared hysterically.
