Inside the temporary camp.

Tacro stared solemnly at the crystal ball before him.

He stepped out of the tent, seeking out Ilya and Phil: “I’ve performed a divination.

Destiny tells me that we are to face a challenge!”

“Is it dangerous?”

Phil narrowed his eyes: “I can’t wait to test my spell.”

“Not too severe, but it’s linked to an unknown terror!” Tacro shook his head.

“I hate it when you aren’t clear…” Phil rolled his eyes.

“Actually, combined with speculation and information, it is apparent… we have no enemies in the North Territory.

The only possibility is the Empire…

their spies have discovered us!”

Ilya sneered.

“So, what should we do?”

Tacro analyzed calmly: “The nobility of the North Territory is our protective umbrella, but they are unreliable, so we must show strength!

Obliterate this probing attempt!

This will buy us a lot of time!”

“And when the Mage Tower is built, we will have the power to oppose legends!

Then, we can set up an academy directly to recruit students!”

Ilya looked at the Mage Tower which had started the construction of the first floor, her face full of confidence.

If the Empire thought they were at the level they were when they seized the Acute Angle Monument, they would inevitably pay a blood price for it.

…

Several days later.

An army advanced on the path.

As a General, Bakker is very proficient in marching.

He had sent people to scout the path before choosing it.

Furthermore, scouts were always scattered around, reporting news at any given time.

However, in the face of an unfathomable enemy, these measures were useless!

Whoosh!

The strong wind ruffled.

Three black-robed figures emerged from the clouds.

A magnified voice echoed back and forth over the troops: “…

unknown army, entering the Duke’s territory without the Duke’s permission can be considered as war or thievery!”

“It’s them!”

Although he had never seen their real faces, Bakker instantly recognized them, they were the Empire’s wanted criminals!

“They can actually fly!”

Even for a Super String Warrior, there was no flying ability, even at Level 4.

Just the mere fact that they could fly left him dumbfounded.

As long as you could fly, no matter how you were surrounded, you could always fly out, unless lured into a closed trap.

Just by this simple magic alone, all of Bakker’s previous plans were ruined, as if he had suffered a ‘Dimensional Strike’ blow.

The presence of magicians would certainly bring profound changes to the form of war on this continent.

The upheaval had just begun!

“Now that the declaration is over, we can begin!”

Ilya exhaled, with a hint of reluctance: “This is a sacrifice that must be made for magic power!”

“I can’t wait any longer.”

Phil chuckled and dove down.

“Shoot arrows!”

The soldiers on the ground were startled, immediately drawing bows and arrows.

But the dense volley of arrows only flew upward for a bit before helplessly falling back down, still a significant distance away from Phil.

“Unless the Super String Warrior cooperates with the special crossbow, they can’t hurt me…

and even if they do, a ‘Shift Field’ can protect me…”

Phil laughed loudly: “Magicians…

are just that powerful!”

An enormous fireball formed in his hand, hurtling downward fiercely.

Boom!

The ground exploded, the orange flame tongues swallowed everything around.

Just this one explosion took away dozens of lives.

“This is the fight of a magician, reaping lives effortlessly…”

Ilya and Tacro also descended, casting spells relentlessly, slaughtering the soldiers below.

This was essentially an unfair war!

“No!”

Bakker roared angrily.

He could never have imagined that these three mysterious people, after only a few years of absence, had become so powerful!

“That’s right, and you too!

Hero of the Empire!”

A red flame bird was conjured at the end of Phil’s Magic Wand, its tail fluttered with tassels, swooping down.

— Firebird Skill!

Boom!

A tremendous explosion ensued.

Bakker was protected by the Hero Anomaly, but the terrifying shock wave caused his chest to fracture, and he was flung far away like a meteorite.

“So strong…

this power is enough to harm a hero!”

He turned around and began to flee.

Feeling the presence of an enemy in the sky that had the ability to kill him, even heroes would feel threatened.

Seeing the commander flee, the original army immediately disbanded.

“Others can go, but he can’t!”

The speed of flight was much faster than running.

Ilya flew down, scattering waves of seeds.

Thump!

Thump!

A large quantity of black iron-colored thorny vines grew out from the soil, wrapping around Bakker like pythons.

No matter how much Bakker roared, he was unable to break free.

“Farewell!”

Phil laughed loudly and landed.

A clump of raging flames started to burn ferociously.

Boom!

After the ferocious explosion, a crater was left on the ground, many sections of the vine were burning, and there was no trace of Bakker in the center.

…

On a distant hill.

Duke Markus watched this scene in silence.

“So, this is…

the power of the magicians?”

“Truly…

it’s a power that shouldn’t appear in this world!”

He lowered his head, his face flickering between relief and gloom.

“Duke!”

At this moment, Ilya landed: “Are you troubled by this?”

“No, indeed, your honor, you’re right.

They entered noble territory without permission and violated the law.

Any noble can destroy them…”

Markus, a political animal, possessed wisdom: “Even the Legendary Emperor would have to recognize this…

after this battle, the magicians will be famous across the continent.”

With the ability to fly, and the ability to kill a hero, this power is almost unchallenged.

This caused the old duke’s heart to worry a bit.

“We are just a group of people committed to pursuing the truth, with little interest in worldly affairs…

The Mage Tower will soon be built.”

Ilya suddenly changed the topic: “We are preparing to recruit a batch of apprentices, we need your help, Duke.”

“Oh?

What are the requirements?”

Duke Markus’ eyes lit up.

“Under fifteen, literate, knows manners.

No need for many at the start, but they must be selected.

We need to check if they have ‘Talent’!”

Ilya laughed softly.

In reality, these were standards for nobles, commoners didn’t have the conditions for such education.

There was no choice.

If they didn’t do this, they couldn’t tie the nobles to the chariot of war.

Besides, teaching a group of people with basic knowledge is always easier than teaching a group of illiterates.

Ilya simply wanted to quickly develop the group of magicians, she didn’t have much requirement for their composition.

“This is very simple, I will definitely be able to do it for you!”

Duke Markus raised his head, his eyes filled with ambition: “You will earn the friendship of the Northland nobility, Honorable Mage!”
