Starting with One Piece, a Multiverse Simulation

The key point is that Rudy is not Wood. He is a traditional mage with high attack but low defense, and does not have Wood's almost abnormal physical strength.

He could use a spell to take Razan and the others away, but if Razan and his men's swords were to cut his neck or pierce his heart, even if he could use the most powerful Emperor-level magic, he would still only face death.

"What an amazing brat! To be honest, you're probably the strongest mage I've ever encountered so far."

I have never encountered a mage as formidable as you, who has managed to remain undefeated against a melee siege by a sword saint, two high-ranking swordsmen, and an archer.

But even if you are incredibly strong, your fate is already sealed. Perhaps you can fight us relentlessly, but I wonder if your other companions possess the same abilities?

Unable to defeat Rudy for a long time, the experienced and shrewd Razan started to resort to psychological warfare, also known as using trash talk to influence the opponent's mentality.

Magicians need to be exceptionally focused during battle, a requirement even stricter than that for warriors. Distractions that lead to incorrect spellcasting or loss of magical energy can directly result in the failure of a spell.

At this moment, Razan was trying to influence Rudy in this way and make him reveal a weakness.

However, despite being trash talk that affected his mindset, Rudy had to admit that what the other person said was true.

Actually, during the battle, he had been distracted by the situation on Sylphie's side, and the situation he saw could only be described as terrible.

Hilfi's opponents aren't very strong. Relying on her technique of using magic without chanting, she's currently fighting seven opponents alone. Although she's at a disadvantage, she's not in any immediate danger.

But Luke and Ariel were in a much worse situation, even in a precarious state.

Luke is a high-level swordsman. To be fair, considering his age, his strength is already quite outstanding among ordinary people.

However, those who assassinated them were previously knights of a certain kingdom, and their combat experience and strength were also outstanding.

At this moment, Luke was fighting five opponents alone. Not to mention that they were evenly matched, he was already struggling to even defend himself. In just a few minutes, he had already sustained quite a few injuries.

As the second princess of the Kingdom of Asura, Ariel, who is able to become the student council president of the Lanoa Magic Academy, is certainly not just a pretty face.

But no matter how outstanding her abilities are, she is still just a student, and having never experienced truly brutal combat, she is, strictly speaking, a flower raised in a greenhouse.

Although Ariel faces the fewest enemies among everyone present and can fight three against one, she is now in the most dangerous situation on the field.

Finally, taking advantage of an opening, Ariel's wand was knocked away, and the assassin opposite her charged towards her with a ferocious expression. Sylphie and Rudy both looked anxious.

Rudy gritted his teeth, determined to risk injury to save Ariel this time.

Putting aside the fact that Ariel became bait because of them, the fact that his wife Sylphie would be heartbroken if Ariel died made it impossible for Rudy to stand idly by.

Just as Rudy was about to make a move, his "precognitive eye" suddenly flashed, revealing his future self a few seconds later. At that moment, he decisively chose to abandon the rescue and instead focused on fighting Razan and the others in front of him.

Ariel, having lost her wand, fell to the ground, now powerless to resist. Luke and Hilfi were both locked in a fierce battle.

Seeing the assassin rushing towards her with a wicked grin, Ariel instead wore a relieved yet bitter smile. She had indeed underestimated the situation.

She thought she had reached a cooperation agreement with Wood and the Dragon God, but she didn't expect that they didn't take her seriously at all.

Perhaps to powerful figures like them, they were merely bait.

If Wood and the Dragon God were truly lurking in the shadows, with their strength, saving him now would be a piece of cake.

However, they did not make a move because their prey, Lyda Lya, a believer in God and Man, had not yet appeared.

"howl------!"

Just as Ariel was lamenting her own foolishness and closing her eyes to await death, a loud wolf howl suddenly echoed in her ears.

Then, as a warm liquid splashed onto her body, Ariel opened her eyes in confusion and was shocked to find a giant demon wolf, over five meters tall, standing beside her.

The other party was currently biting off half of the body of the assassin who had pounced on him earlier. Because of the close proximity, a large amount of blood spurted out and splashed onto him.

"Human girl, you need not be afraid. I am Lord Wood's magical beast attendant, the loyal wolf king of the Grerat family. I have come at Lord Wood's summons to help you defeat the enemy before you."

With its massive wolf body and the menacing wolf head still biting a piece of a corpse, the suddenly appearing Demon Wolf King was a very dangerous presence from any perspective. Ariel, who was nearby, was naturally too intimidated by the Demon Wolf King's astonishing aura to move.

"Is this telepathic ability? You are Mr. Wood's familiar, here to assist us in this battle!"

Seeing the giant monster suddenly appear, Ariel initially thought that she would be its next target. Rather than dying in the beast's jaws, she would have preferred to die at the hands of the assassin she had just met, at least that way she could die more gracefully.

Just as she was lost in thought, a voice like that of a child suddenly appeared in her mind. And when she realized that the giant wolf in front of her was staring at her, Ariel was shocked to find that the words she had just heard were spoken by the giant wolf!

What level of monster is it that not only possesses such high intelligence but can even communicate with humans using telepathy?

Just as the Wolf King was talking to Ariel, two other mages from the three who had previously attacked Ariel also used fire magic on the suddenly appearing Wolf King.

A massive fireball, a full meter in diameter, struck the Wolf King's body directly, causing Ariel to cover her mouth in worry.

However, the flames were torn apart by a pair of sharp claws in the next second. The wolf king charged in front of the two mages and with a single swipe of its claws, it tore the two thin-skinned mages to pieces in an instant!

As for the spot where the meter-sized fireball hit the Demon Wolf King, there isn't even a trace left now.

The wolf king's fur naturally provides resistance to both magic and physical attacks, and it is absolutely immune to fire. Even Wood's fire magic might not be able to do anything to the wolf king. For these two mages to use fire magic, isn't that just suicide?

"howl------!"

The Demon Wolf King, who has been on the scene for less than a minute, has instantly killed three powerful opponents and is now letting out a victorious roar at the silver moon in the sky.

In Ariel's eyes, the Wolf King was now a powerful, reliable, and divine being. His previously ferocious and savage appearance and behavior, filtered through the lens of being saved, had transformed into something extraordinary and divine...

The Demon Wolf King only used its telepathic ability on Ariel. Although it instantly killed the three assassins who were attacking Ariel, the sudden appearance of such a huge monster in front of Ariel still made Sylphie and Luke on the other side look anxious and want to rush over.

Unlike Rudy, Sylphie and Luke did not know the Demon Wolf King. Upon seeing such a huge and powerful monster, their first instinct was naturally to regard it as a dangerous being.

Just as Sylphie and Luke were taking advantage of their opponent's still-stunned state to break free as quickly as possible and rush towards Ariel and the Wolf King, the massive Wolf King also reacted immediately.

It immediately opened its blood-red maw, revealing sharp, gleaming teeth, and a massive amount of magical power began to gather in its mouth.

A fiery red magic circle was quickly drawn in front of the wolf king's mouth. The next second, as the temperature in the air suddenly surged, a huge tongue of fire suddenly shot out from the wolf king's mouth!

Huge tongues of fire shot out in a vortex, instantly illuminating the night as bright as day, turning the ground into scorched earth, and turning all the trees in its path into black charcoal in an instant!

"Crimson Lotus Vortex!"

Some individual magical beasts can also use magic, and unlike humans, magical beasts' magic comes more from their innate abilities, so they do not need to chant.

The Demon Wolf King's technique, "Crimson Lotus Vortex," was absolutely comparable to a "King-level" magic in terms of power. Just as the massive vortex of fire swept towards Luke and Sylphie, Rudy and Ariel simultaneously cried out in alarm.

"Your Excellency Wolf King, they are my guards, they are our own people!"

"Wolf King, that handsome guy and the elf hybrid are our allies, don't do anything reckless."

Seeing the enormous flames that almost engulfed half the forest sweeping towards Sylphie and Luke, Rudy also showed a look of anxiety.

Just as Luke and Hilfi didn't know the Wolf King, the Wolf King naturally didn't know Luke and Hilfi either. So at this moment, Rudy was very worried that the Wolf King would kill his future wife and cousin with a single burst of fire!

Rudy was well aware of the Wolf King's strength; with Hilfi's "Water Saint" level magic, there was no way she could withstand the Wolf King's attack.

However, Rudy's worries were clearly unnecessary. Since Wood had summoned the Wolf King from his home and made it fight alongside him, he naturally wouldn't make such a basic mistake.

The raging flames grazed past Hilfi and his companion, instantly making the air around them unbearably hot, before finally roaring past and completely engulfing the assassins chasing them!

The assassins, engulfed by the massive pillar of fire, didn't even have a chance to cry out before being reduced to charred remains in the blink of an eye.

After doing all this, the Demon Wolf King seemed unsatisfied and snorted loudly, spitting out a lot of sparks.

"What the hell is this wolf-like monster? Isn't it wild? Why is it targeting us so fiercely?"

Moreover, I've never heard of this type of magical beast before. Not only is it so enormous, but it also wields such powerful magic!

"Fool, haven't you realized yet? That boy and the princess both called out the name of that magical beast. They're obviously in cahoots!"

"These magical beasts of this level are actually domesticated! Just who are these guys?"

Why didn't the information our employer gave us mention such a monster at all?!

The Demon Wolf King first tore apart three assassins with its claws, then used its fiery breath to turn the five assassins who had fought Luke earlier into charcoal. Its enormous size and powerful strength instantly shook the confidence of the assassins present.

Compared to humans, massive magical beasts often exert greater psychological pressure on their opponents. Moreover, the Demon Wolf King not only uses magic but also possesses such high intelligence, making it clear that it is no ordinary magical beast. It might even be the legendary Demon Wolf Fenrir.

"Human brats and half-elf, you guys just stand aside and watch. I'll take care of these guys."

"It's been a long time since I've been summoned to battle by my master. I've been itching for a fight. Today is a good day to stretch my muscles and show off in front of my master."

The voice of the Demon Wolf King appeared in the minds of Hilfi and Luke at the same time. Only then did Hilfi and Luke realize with astonishment that this huge, exceptionally strong and ferocious wolf-like magical beast was actually their ally!

The five-meter-tall wolf king, with its astonishing running speed, covered hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye, and the assassin's magic and weapons struck its steel-like fur, causing sparks to fly.

Chapter 538 The Old Woman Known as the "Water Goddess"

Compared to the fragile bodies of humans, magical beasts are naturally much stronger, especially the wolf king, whose fur is as tough as steel. After consuming a large amount of high-purity magic crystals from the underground labyrinth, it underwent a further mutation.

The current Demon Wolf King, even without doing anything, has a body that can withstand magic of level 1 to 2. If it is fire magic, it can even be immune to it.

As for physical weapons like swords, even if they can get close, it would be difficult to break through the Demon Wolf King's defenses unless one reaches the "Saint-level" level.

The Demon Wolf King was genuinely enthusiastic about this battle. Although his opponent wasn't particularly strong, the long-awaited fight still excited him greatly.

During the two years that Wood was "dead," the Wolf King practically became a full-time nanny, secretly protecting Wood's two younger sisters, Norren and Aisha, as they grew up.

The area where the Demon Wolf King roamed was always near the Grerat family's house. In the two years that followed, the magical beasts around it were lucky if they didn't wet themselves in fear after sensing its powerful aura, let alone fight it.

In addition, his master's two younger sisters, Norren and Aisha, were very attached to him, so much so that the Demon Wolf King could not fight with other magical beasts whenever he wanted.

The reason was simple: his master, Wood, had once said that he was not allowed to do anything too bloody in front of his two younger sisters, because they were still children.

Heaven have mercy! The Demon Wolf King is a magical beast, and the top one among magical beasts. In addition, it is a ferocious wolf-type magical beast, not a pure dog. Does it expect it to be vegetarian?

Despite its many complaints, the Wolf King always adhered to this rule even during the two years that Wood was "dead," never committing any bloody acts in front of Norren and Aisha.

Even when they wanted to hunt for food, the Demon Wolf King would often send his underlings to hunt, while he would be responsible for taking care of the two little ones.

The Wolf King's meticulous care allowed Noren and Aisha to grow up in a completely safe environment, and their trust in him was comparable to that of their father, Paul, second only to their older brother, Wood.

"Damn it, what's going on with this wolf-like magical beast? Not only can it use magic and possesses extremely high intelligence, but its physical strength and resistance are also so high?"
