You sneaked into my simulation world and started spamming the panel?

In the darkness, the sound of his companion falling to the ground was particularly jarring.

Derek turned around in confusion and found an elf guard lying on the ground behind him, his head rolling into the elf wheat field beside him.

Ok?

"Pfft."

One after another, the sounds of falling to the ground rang out, and a circle of elven guards' corpses lay around Derek.

He stood there, stunned, completely unaware of who had done it.

Realizing something was wrong, Derek tried to escape back to Ridilla, but he suddenly felt a cold wind blowing behind him.

He slowly turned around and, in the pale moonlight, saw a white-haired girl with blood still smeared on her face standing behind him.

The girl's cloak and long hair billowed to one side in the wind, and her icy blue eyes, like two sharp blades, pierced Derek's chest.

Her face was extremely gloomy, as if covered with a layer of frost.

Isolde!

Derek didn't dare to breathe. He stood there, stunned, unable to believe that Isolde would appear in this place.

Who was fighting Sionsto?

"Derek."

In the deathly silence, the sound of Isolde's boots hitting the ground slowly began, each sound pounding into Derek's heart.

"I'm glad about something right now."

Derek secretly cast a spell, using a mind control spell to try and distract Isolde, giving him time to escape.

Isolde tilted her head slightly. Possessing the talent of [Magic Stagnation], she sensed the presence of mental control and used her Lv.5 Purification spell to directly dispel it.

Derek stared wide-eyed, unable to believe that Isolde hadn't been disturbed.

He could no longer stay calm and turned to run away.

But Isolde had already appeared in front of him, her longsword already at his neck.

Those utterly cold eyes froze Derek in place. Isolde, her face grim, spoke each word clearly:

"Fortunately, you weren't so easy to kill."

Derek's healing ability became his instrument of torture at this moment.

Chapter 76 Two People Under the Same Starry Sky

Under the same starry sky, two battles are raging simultaneously.

Derek was struck in the shoulder by Isolde's sword. The powerful blow was too much for him to bear, and he fell to one knee.

He opened his mouth, trying to vent his pain, but Isolde spun around and kicked him in the chin, forcibly silencing him.

Kicked into the air, he was met with Isolde's second strike, the sword slicing into his abdomen and tearing him in two at the waist.

With only half his body remaining, Derek rolled several times on the ground before stopping. Unable to express his pain, he could only let the tears of fear flow from the corners of his eyes.

He lay on the ground, dragging half his body, crawling towards the city of Ridria.

Dark green magic enveloped his lower body, and the powerful regenerative force allowed him to regrow his lower body. He quickly stood up, preparing to escape, and turned back to cast a spell at Isolde, attempting to disrupt her pursuit.

But just as his right hand drew a magic circle in the air, a white light flashed, and the sword's edge severed his finger.

If it grows longer, cut it down again; if it grows longer, cut it down again.

Derek didn't even have time to cast the spell.

"Isolde! If you're so capable, make me cast a spell!"

Isolde didn't waste any words with him, and directly plunged her longsword into his mouth, piercing through his skull.

Blood splattered onto Isolde's face, and she used her left hand to shield herself from the filth.

Derek's lips moved, and a blinding light shone from beneath his feet.

This was his explosive magic; he was trying to create distance between them using a method similar to self-destruction. Only by creating distance could he fight back.

But Isolde did not retreat at all.

She reached out her right hand, grabbed Derek by the neck, pressed him to the ground, and finally stomped on his chest, sending his body into the blast of magic from the ground.

"Boom—!"

The explosion ripped Derek's body to pieces, and his head was blown into the air.

Derek was overjoyed, finally escaping Isolde's control.

As long as he has enough magic, he will not be killed, and he can be fully restored even if only his head remains.

Before he could even feel happy, Isolde grabbed his head and slammed him to the ground.

"Isolde! I didn't do anything, why did you try to kill me right away!"

Derek raised his eyes and looked down at Isolde, whose face was gloomy.

“I told you,” Isolde said, pointing her sword at Derek’s head, “I will cut off your head with my own hands and hear your screams. I will make you regret ever being born.”

Derek was stunned; he didn't understand why Isolde was so angry.

But the cruel reality was right in front of him: this mighty elven calamity was reduced to nothing but a head in front of Isolde, unable to even use magic, and could only be beaten one-sidedly.

“Isolde, stop, stop! Listen to me carefully. I can give you the location and information of all the Elven Scourges. Don’t you want to kill them? Don’t you want to devour the Scourges step by step and eventually challenge the dragon Callistos?”

Derek's body began to regenerate uncontrollably, and Isolde would immediately cut it off as soon as it grew back.

"what--!!!"

The pain contorted Derek's face. He reached out his newly grown hand and grabbed Isolde's hair. "Don't cut it anymore, please... I'll tell you anything you want to know. I can be your mole..."

Isolde swung her sword and severed Derek's hand. She then picked up a strand of hair that Derek had just grabbed and cut it off with her sword.

As strands of white hair fell one by one, Derek heard words of despair.

"Derek, I want you dead. For Lott's sake, I want you dead too."

Derek's expression was one of utter astonishment; it took him several seconds to accept his impending death.

His resentment turned into anger, which contorted his face.

"Isolde, you madman! The Vicaris family will never let you get away with this! They will find you and kill you!"

“Vicaris?” Isolde scoffed. “After you die, I will kill your whole family.”

"Do not--!!!"

Isolde lowered her right shoulder and activated Valgard Sword Technique.

【Starting the Charge】

As the first move of Valgard swordsmanship, [Starting Edge] can continuously increase speed and power with each strike, and is the foundation of the following five moves.

Derek's remaining body was relentlessly subjected to a barrage of blows.

When the enemy faces the whirlwind of the "sharp attack," they will reveal their weaknesses.

This weakness will appear as a small red dot in the eyes of a swordsman. As long as this red dot is hit, the enemy will be severely injured or even knocked to the ground. This is called "breaking the weakness".

Derek was lying on the ground, his body covered in wounds and red spots.

Isolde relentlessly stabbed at the red dot, each strike greatly reducing Derek's magical power, making him feel his life rapidly slipping away.

On the other side, Lotte and Isolde moved in perfect unison, both using Valgard swordsmanship at the same time.

Facing the tree spirit Sionstow, Lotte wielded the Blade of Isolde and slashed relentlessly. The dense onslaught from the Rising Edge finally overwhelmed Sionstow, and a huge red dot appeared on his torso.

Lotte gripped the sword hilt tightly with both hands, simultaneously releasing [Oath Keeper] and [Enhancement], and thrusting with all his might towards Sionstow's weak point.

As the greatsword pierced the dryad's rough trunk, several shocking cracks spread outwards from the wound, pushing Sionston's body to the brink of disintegration.

Sinstow could no longer howl; it used every branch it could muster to wrap around Lotte's body—neck, limbs, joints—it tightly bound all of Lotte's vital parts.

But it did not wrap itself around the dragon's mouth.

Lott used his weight to pin Sinstow to the ground, opened his mouth, aimed at Sinstow's torso, and spewed out a gigantic fire breath.

This is the magic [Flame Breath] that the dragon possesses after transforming into a dragon.

Flames burst from Lot's mouth, forming a blazing pillar of fire.

At such close range, Sinster had no way to dodge; every part of its body was being scorched by the high temperature.

The smell of burning began to appear, and the crackling sounds of burning grew louder and more frequent. Under the continued scorching of Lotte's fierce flames, the liquid inside its body was gradually evaporated.

Tonight, Isolde's relentless fighting style has already eroded most of Sionstow's vitality, even destroying its self-regeneration ability. Then, it was relentlessly attacked by the dragon Loth, leaving it in dire straits.

In its dying moments, it used all its strength to keep hitting Lotte with tree branches, trying to put up a futile resistance.

On the other hand, Derek also hoped for the same, but he simply couldn't do it.

Once his limbs grow back, Isolde will immediately cut them off.

As his magic power dwindled, he realized he was truly going to die, and driven by the instinct to survive, he arched his body, trying to escape.

At the same time, both Derek and Sionsto had their last red dot.

Isolde and Lotte simultaneously raised their swords, pulled back to gather strength, and stared intently at their enemy.

The moonlight poured down, and the figures of a man and a dragon overlapped in the night.

They simultaneously thrust their final blows at the enemy's weak points.

Chapter 77 Unexpected Turn of Events

Beneath the giant sword, the tree spirit Sionstor's body shattered into countless pieces.

After being repeatedly beaten by Isolde and the dragon Loth, Sionstow finally couldn't hold on any longer.

It didn't even have time to say goodbye to this world; its charred body turned into countless dust particles with a gust of wind.

The ground is covered with a thick layer of black soil, which will continue to nourish this land for decades or even centuries to come.

The small tree spirits beside him also relied on Sionstow's root system to survive. When it fell, the small tree spirits also stopped all activity and collapsed to the ground.

Lotte, panting, looked around at the clearing in the woods.

The ground had been plowed through several times by the war plow, and the tree trunks on the hillside were all snapped in half, leaving a scene of utter devastation.

"If this were in reality, Sensto would need adventurers from the entire empire to besiege him."

Lotte didn't think he was strong enough to kill Sionsto in a few minutes. He was able to succeed so quickly largely thanks to Isolde's desperate attack.

So the question is, just how strong is Isolde?

Lotte looked at his dragon claws and suddenly wondered if he could fight her with this dragon body one day.

It wouldn't feel bad if the arrogant Lord Isolde could be defeated by me.

With the death of Senesto, its talents were also taken away by Lotte.

[Gained Talent: Demonic Stagnation]

[Talent Effect: When magic invades the body, the resulting damage, control effects, etc., will gradually take effect over 2 seconds.]

Unallocated attribute points: 36

Lotte's [Gigantification] and [Enhancement] abilities both reached Lv.3 after defeating Sionsto.

With so many attribute points, Lot can increase the value of a single attribute to its maximum after returning to the real world.

If we only look at the attributes, although Lotte in reality is only a novice mage, he can still hold his own against intermediate or even advanced mages.

In addition, the newly acquired talent [Magic Stagnation], combined with [Mist Silk] which targets physical damage, the second life from [I'm Not Dead], and the physical and magical resistance provided by [The World's Gift], makes the mage Lot very difficult to kill.

The only thing that Lotte felt was a little regretful about was that there was no priest in the team.

If there were a priest who could restore Lotte's life force before the damage from [Stun] and [Mist Silk] took effect, and even help Lotte purify the control, then Lotte would be really hard to kill.

A new pastor girl has arrived in Maple Town, but...

But is she really alright?

Lotte walked to the "Tears of Alfheim" necklace and regained her human form.
