“This......it’s impossible. How can you instantly cast such high level magic?”
Greed marveled.
“It would take a lich at least half a minute to store up enough energy for this sort of high level spell and you just needed to wave your hand......how the hell is this possible?”
“Well......”
I shrugged.
“A normal person wouldn’t be able to do it, but do you thing that normal person would walk into the Abyss and chat with the Demon King?”
“......”
Greed stared blankly. After some time she replied.
“I think I understand why the Demon King wanted me to bring you in from the back. I thought it was because you were on good terms with the Demon King and she wanted you to have some successes fighting. But I didn’t think......the Demon King wanted to set their backline on fire.”
“That’s good to know. Don’t we need to hurry then?”
“Yes.”
It seems that the cave filled with spiders had been completely frozen over. The earthen cave had been completely covered by ice.
It was a spell with the ability to seal an entire legion in ice. When you cast it inside of a cave like this, the already powerful spell is compressed further and instantly fills the cave.
While I don’t know how large the cave is, it’s become fit for polar bears.
“We should go this way.”
The cave was completely refurbished by the spiders, the inside had been hollowed out with the center of the cave supported with countless pillars. As we walked towards the exit I was able to see a way up.
“Looks like it goes up here. Maybe an upwards passage was built before this became a spider cave, it seems like it leads upwards towards this. Come on now, we’re almost at the enemy’s camp.”
Just as we said this, Oyado and Tai Shixi became alerted.
“Careful, someone’s there!”
As soon as they said that we quickly hid behind nearby icicles.
After a while several names and titles appeared at the exit. Looking up, they appeared to be the enemy’s soldiers.
They probably discovered that the spider hole had changed so they sent someone down?
I smiled. Replacing the water magic crystal in the Guide Book, I hung it by my waist.
I took out the Blasphemer since I had gotten it back from Blazing Horn. While the dagger on it is a little damaged, it is easier for me to use than a staff.
“To be honest.”
Bai Yueguang said, looking at the weapon I was holding.
“???????????????????????E??”
“That looks more like a lance than a wand, do you know about the Lancer with E-ranked luck?”
“How can you see a magic wand as a spear? It rod isn’t even as long as your sword, aren’t you seeing things?”
“It’s because......your wand is a long rod with a knife at the end.”
“......”
While I was giving Bai Yueguang a blank look, the enemy reached the entrance to the cave. In an instant the ice at the entrance was smashed and a werewolf with a sledgehammer jumped in.
“Oh my god, how did the spider hole become filled with ice?”
The werewolf exclaimed.
“Jeff, go and report to the commander. This place’s occupants have changed. It’s probably a high level ice monster. The spiders in here......most of them didn’t have any time to react. Tell the commander to seal this passage or we’re going to be in danger.”
“Absolutely don’t let them do that!”
I quietly whispered to the others.
“Who!?”
The werewolf’s hearing ability was really strong. It was able to hear me even though I was whispering.”
“Go!”
I had just shouted out when several figures darted out. Oyado appeared behind the werewolf with a dagger in her hand. The werewolf’s body came to a sudden stop as he was decapitated.
Bai Yueguang rushed into the entrance, there was a flash of light, and after a moment the name in the tunnel vanished.
After a moment Bai Yueguang came out of the tunnel and Greed reappeared next to us with a werewolf’s head in her hands.
“Don’t bring that over here, it’s disgusting.”
“Oh, old habit. Sorry.”
Greed threw it aside and turned back to us
“What should we do now?”
“Keep going forward. What else can we do?”
“I checked the passage out just now and there are quite a few soldiers outside. We wouldn’t be able to sneak out of here and would have to fight them head on.”
“Isn’t it normal to sneak in like that with Dynasty Warriors? Well, I do know a way.”
“What is it?”
“Didn’t they say that there was a high level magic beast?”
“Yes.”
“Then we will give them one.”
“......”
Greed stared blankly at me again.
“What what sort of bastard are you, being able to do anything?”
I smiled at her
“Only an idiot.”

Two minutes later, Rebel Army Outpost.
A team of werewolf soldiers had surrounded the small hole.
One of the soldiers turned to a higher ranked werewolf and asked.
“Boss, Jeff’s been down there for a while, while there was a voice just now I wasn’t able to make it out. Could there be danger?”
“Impossible......”
The oldest looking werewolf said.
“They’re the oldest fighters in our group, wouldn’t they have sent a signal?”
“Makes sense......eh?”
Suddenly, the earth beneath them started to shake.
“Boss! This......”
“Full alert! Fall back!”
Just as he was saying that, a loud roar came from the hole, countless ice snakes came out and attacked the surrounding werewolves.
“Defend, retreat!”
The werewolves’ boss shouted as he fought an ice snake.
But......
10 meters underground, I was holding a wand and facing the hole.
“Dark magic summoning, I can still use it.”
“Seriously......”
Greed said.
“You’re definitely a monster.”
