Steadfast Wizard: From Heart-Swapping Rat to Dimensional Demon God

Chapter 87 Isaac: Mice are more than brothers to me! My dearest friends and family!!!

"Whoosh~ Tap!"

Just as Isaac was standing on the giant eagle, arms outstretched in a show of bravado, his second brother Remington suddenly appeared, raising his longsword and pointing it at Isaac.

"That's enough, Isaac. This is all I can do for you."

Isaac looked at Remington, who had the sword pointed at him, sighed heavily, lowered his hands, and said helplessly, "Second brother, oh second brother—why do you always make the wrong choices?"

"I'm not like you, I had no choice." Remington said calmly, holding up his longsword.

Isaac sighed, raised his hand, and stopped Liuli from rushing forward.

"Second Brother, this is the last time I'll call you Second Brother. We're brothers, after all. If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the last time we see each other. Even though this means you've fallen into Philo's trap, let me, your younger brother, teach you a lesson so you'll die knowing why. Did you have no choice, or were you just stupid!"

Looking at Remington, Isaac said, "Your first foolish choice was to compete with your elder brother for the position of family head. It was like throwing an egg against a rock, overestimating your own abilities! Your second foolish choice was to collude with the Black Orcs and cross the family's bottom line. Given your elder brother's personality, even if you lose to him, it won't have any impact. He has the magnanimity to do so."

The third foolish choice you made was choosing to completely side with the Norns family. The only person in the family with a strong opinion against you is your father, and the old man is about to retire. At that point, your eldest brother will have the final say, and the so-called expulsion will be nothing but empty talk.

You can't even understand this, and your last foolish choice was to stand against me—"

As he spoke, Isaac looked at Remington with a deep gaze, "I'm not like my brother. He loves his family very much, he's very generous, practically perfect, so even if you've done so many terrible things, he'll forgive you. But I'm different."

I will kill you right here!

"Are you done?" Remington raised his sword expressionlessly, a flash of lightning on the blade clearly expressing his thoughts.

"Well, that concludes my lecture." Isaac nodded, then pulled a brass pendant from his pocket and asked with a smile, "You seem very confident because you know all my cards? Do you know why I never hide what I'm capable of?"

"Because you're just as stupid as your older brother."

"Ha~" Isaac laughed helplessly. "So, you're stupid—" The reason I didn't hide it was because there was no need, you idiot!"

"Click click click!"

As he finished speaking, the pendant on Isaac's chest emitted a mechanical creaking sound, and the brass cap on the surface of the pendant contracted section by section, revealing a bright red gem inside, its scarlet brilliance shining brilliantly!

"Show me what a real mad witch looks like!" Isaac covered the gem that shone with red light with both hands, and ripples flashed behind him. A world filled with all kinds of tumors slowly emerged behind him, and between his eyebrows, a blood-red six-pointed star emitted a huge magical fluctuation!

The dimension of flesh and blood, descend!

Infinite magic, connect!

"kill."

Seeing Remington rush up to interrupt him but being stopped by Liuli, Isaac gently waved his hand, and a surge of powerful magic rose into the sky!

Countless pieces of flesh flowed out from the unknown void behind him, making a "sizzling" sound, and corroded everything in its path!

And this is just the beginning!

Remington, who had just been attacked by the invisible hand of the glass, swung his sword to kill a greatsword demon. When he looked up, his pupils suddenly contracted!

He saw it—

Countless monsters poured out of the pulp!

They were all densely packed with gray-haired rats with a single large horn!

"drink!"

With a roar, Remington unleashed a thunderous sword aura that instantly shattered the giant horned rats within a hundred-meter radius!

He also cut Liuli, who was about to attack, in half!

"You think I'm one of those useless—" However, before he could finish his threat, Remington was horrified to discover that, apart from the rats that had been burned to ashes by his thunderous sword energy, the rest of the Great Horned Rats had not only recovered from their injuries in an instant, but had even multiplied several times over!

This is the magic of the Horned Rabbit!

But how is that possible? The horned rabbit is a first-tier monster!

These rats are nothing but...

"Um?"

Shocked by the rat's abilities, Remington's heart skipped a beat. Driven by instinct, he jumped away from his spot, and then a sword and a knife came flying at him in an instant!

Upon closer inspection, Remington discovered that not only the giant horned rat had split apart, but even the glass had become two!

This made Remington's heart skip a beat. Damn it, this guy isn't human either?

Is there anything normal left in Isaac's life?

While Remington was still in shock, an even more outrageous scene unfolded—

Hundreds of greatsword demons struggled and rushed out of the pulp!

In just a few seconds, more than a thousand Greatsword Demons appeared!

Not only did Remington's face turn deathly pale, but even the high knights and archmages who had been observing from the shadows also became serious. A thousand greatsword demons—even high knights wouldn't be a match for them in a head-on confrontation!

What's even more terrifying is that the Greatsword Demons continue to crawl out of the fleshy mess!

Although the speed was significantly slower, it was still only a few seconds per one!

Only now did they finally understand the meaning of Isaac's words, "It's unnecessary."

"Liuli, come back. The rest, kill them."

Just as Liuli was about to continue her attack, she stopped what she was doing, glanced coldly at Remington, and merged her two bodies into one, returning to Isaac's side. Then, more than a dozen greatsword demons pounced on Remington!

Bringing Liuli back doesn't mean Isaac wants to release Remington.

With a heavy sigh, Remington raised his longsword, his eyes resolute as he faced the Greatsword Demons. A moment later, the brilliant lightning gradually faded, and the Greatsword Demons charged toward the town center!

"Why!"

Just then, with a sigh, Isaac's heart skipped a beat, and he became alert. A golden statue more than ten meters tall rose from the town. The statue drew its long sword and swept it lightly, instantly sending dozens of Great Sword Demons flying!

"A High Knight?!" Isaac's pupils constricted slightly as he looked at the enormous golden statue. The worst had happened; he had barely begun his operation when the Empire's forces came to stop him—"""Hmm?"

Isaac paused for a moment, then raised his hand. Hamon emitted an invisible wave that temporarily halted all the monsters.

Because Isaac saw two people on the left hand of the statue: one was the blank-faced Princess Philo, and the other was an old man, Hitz Bart, the high knight who guarded the town of Philis.

"Lord Hitz, what is this—"

"Can you stop?" Hitz asked helplessly from the statue's hand.

Given his personality and style, he usually resorts to direct violence, continuing the fight if they don't listen. But this person is different; facing such terrifying ability, he might not be able to defeat him in a direct confrontation.

What a terrifying young man!

Defeating Isaac was easy—just behead him. But what about the remaining monsters? These aren't the kind of creatures that will stop fighting just because they're without a master...

And most importantly, he couldn't defeat Gaia Solomon.

Not just any high-ranking knight can obtain this title; it's a title from the "Sword Saint" faction. The difference between high-ranking knights is enormous, not to mention the urban legend that Gaia is only one step away from becoming the "Miracle Knight," a title even higher than high-ranking knights.

Therefore, taking action against Isaac is extremely risky.

Unfortunately, he wasn't the only one who understood this principle; Isaac understood it too. So he didn't back down, nor did he ever stop creating Greatsword Demons. There was no other way; the infinite magic power only lasted three minutes, so he had to hurry. Besides, even if he really had to back down this time, the ones he created could return to the Flesh Nest in the Flesh Dimension to wait, so it wouldn't be a complete loss.

"If it were you, would you have stopped so easily?" Isaac retorted.

Hitz paused for a moment. He wanted to say yes, but it was obviously pointless. So after a brief silence, he asked, "No matter what, the eldest princess cannot die. That is our absolute bottom line."

"Us?" Isaac asked, somewhat puzzled.

Immediately, an arcane light flashed beside Hitz, and a young man dressed in a blue wizard's robe stepped out from it. He looked at Isaac with a complicated expression and said, "He's talking about me, a high knight and a great arcane mage. I think I should be able to easily deal with your little guys."

"Grand Archmage Mensa Baros—" Isaac looked at the newcomer with some surprise, then fell silent.

He had anticipated the involvement of high-ranking knights, given his and Philo's sensitive identities; the death of either of them could easily cause chaos within the empire. However, he hadn't expected a grand arcane mage to get involved.

It's still the same one.

Just as there is a great difference between high knights, there is also a great difference between high wizards. For example, the archmage Mensa Baros is a very legendary archmage. In addition to having many writings, he is most famous for his terrifying combat power!

According to the Arcane History - The Chronicles of Terra, about thirty years ago, Archmage Mensa Baros used a single power spell to instantly kill three high knights who were fighting with all their might and a high wizard who was surrounded by defensive sorcerers!

Then, without batting an eye, he used time magic to resurrect the damaged battlefield and the dead. Because of his intervention, the Terra Empire, which had initially suffered heavy losses due to being caught off guard, not only suffered no losses afterward but also gained the heads of four higher beings...

Archmage Mensa Baros became famous because of this battle!

And now, this legendary figure has actually appeared in the midst of their playful antics—

As for?

"It seems you recognize me, which makes things easier. Let's leave it at that—you probably don't want that, right?"

Nonsense! I've already struck my pose for showing off!

Isaac didn't speak, but listened quietly.

"I have a suggestion, a suggestion that will allow you to vent your anger. Little Filo has many alchemical puppets, and those things are a bit different from yours. Destroying them is simply destroying them. I'll have her summon them all, and you can dismantle them all to vent your frustration. Then, I'll spare her life. How about that?"

Upon hearing this, Isaac paused for a moment, then said, "Can we skip the fight? Just give me all her alchemical puppets!"

Hitz, Mensa: ".—"
