At midnight, a silver hook hangs high in the dome.

In the main hall of the Heavenly Dome Palace, there was a dead silence.

The two people standing opposite each other looked at each other and did not move.

"Why, a close confidant of the Emperor of the Empire, knows how to speak cruelly to the enemy?" the elven assassin, the chief of the Overseer, Eugen, sneered, the long knife in his right hand still dripping blood:

"Didn't you say you're going to kill me, or are you... Just talking?"

Standing opposite, Ruth Infinit seemed to have lost his mind, completely unmoved.

"Hmm. ”

After a full five seconds, he focused his gaze on the elven assassin as if he had just heard clearly, and said calmly:

"On that note... Don't get me wrong, I just don't have the habit of doing it first. ”

At that moment, the elven assassin's face became extremely ugly.

"What a big breath, let me draw the knife first......" Tie blushed, and the long knife in the chief of the Overseer's hand flicked away, and the viscous plasma left seven delicate six-petal flowers on the floor:

"Rutte Infinit... As an assassin, you're arrogant!"

"Even an assassin, a lowly thing, dares to provoke me!"

"The arrogant must be ravaged, crushed, torn to shreds... Together with the soul, it will be wiped out!"

What's going on?

Looking at the elven assassin who suddenly became irritable, the leader of the Night's Watch narrowed his eyes vigilantly, and the spellcaster in his right hand had quietly prepared for a "Force Impact".

"Dare to provoke my Imperial Court Chief, it's good, it's very good!"

The elven assassin's body trembled violently, the blue tendons on his forehead were exposed, his hideous eyes were instantly covered with bloodshots, and his suddenly constricted eyes stared at the leader of the Night's Watch:

"You're going to be angry about this... Pay the price!"

Well?!

The moment Rut Infinit was stunned, Eugen's figure was already approaching, raising his knife in his right hand and swinging it down suddenly.

Blazing flames poured out from the tip of the sword, like a torrent of Benten, toward the leader of the Night's Watch, and the dark hall was as bright as day with the golden-red glow!

At that moment, some extremely familiar memory suddenly flooded into his mind.

"Boom ——!"

The flames had gone, and the scorched floor was no longer the leader of the Night's Watch.

Gone?

The angry Eugen's face changed suddenly, and at the moment when he suddenly looked back, a cold murderous aura had already hit his neck!

In the blink of an eye, the Hidden Blade is already close to the throat!

"Boom ——!"

The flames exploded.

Root, who had been completely hit, flew into the air like a burnt rag bag, and rolled on the ground several times before stopping, and almost nothing was intact from top to bottom.

"Do you think there's only a flame on the tip of a knife, scum?"

Looking at the leader of the Night's Watch who was embarrassed and reluctantly stood up, Eugen's face was full of anger and cruelty.

There was a wound on his neck, the mark of Root's best efforts.

"Let me tell you, I'm completely enraged right now, from head to toe, every bone, every drop of blood......"

“...... It's all burning desperately!"

Really......

The leader of the Night's Watch struggled to his feet, expressionless, coldly shaking off the blood from his face, his festering skin rapidly returning to its original state under the burnt armor.

Once injured, the body's recovery function becomes extremely rapid... It can be regarded as a small reward for taking the Holy Blood Elixir by mistake.

"Then I'll help you cool down, Your Excellency the Overseer. "Rut Infinit rarely tells a bad joke:

"Lest you burn yourself out of this big candle before I can do it!"

Eugen, who heard this, laughed instead of being angry, and shook it violently, and the long knife in his right hand ignited a fire again:

"Try ——?!"

At that moment, the leader of the Night's Watch, who had just been scarred and staggering, suddenly burst out!

The icy murderous aura was like thousands of arrows, striking the elven assassin again.

"Boom ——!"

The flames erupted, but the figure of Ruth Infinit had already exploded and dodged, and the swift figure did not stop for a moment, and the moment it took off into the air, the dagger in his hand was already aimed at the back of Eugen's neck.

"Boom ——!"

Another explosion!

The golden-red fire reflected the faces of the two people very clearly at the same time, and the angry eyes and murderous eyes briefly met in the air.

In the next second, the two shot at the same time.

"Bell ——!"

The long knife and dagger played fierce notes.

The leader of the Night's Watch who misses the blow disappears from the Elven Assassin again, lurking in the shadows.

"Stupid and arrogant!" Eugen roared, the long knife in his right hand swinging fire again in the direction of the night watchman's leader's flight:

"Didn't I tell you everything, scum, chops?!"

"Think you can beat me before the flames explode with speed?!"

"My anger is fire—and now I'm furious from head to toe!"

"If you dare to touch me and provoke me, you will be burned by my anger and be wiped out!"

Falsehood......

In the moment of evasion, feeling the heat of the flames around him, the indifferent leader of the Night's Watch remained calm.

The wound on the other person's neck is a perfect proof of this... If he really turned into flames all over his body, why did he have wounds?

Two raids, one fast and one slow, are to confirm the opponent's ability.

The opponent's blade can indeed swing a flame that is not inferior to a certain wizard's "Turin Fire", and it is powerful and has a wide range, judging from the fact that the opponent can constantly swing the flame to chase him, this move is not much of a load on him.

Secondly, there should be a circle of "armor" similar abilities around the opponent's body, and once the target is detected, it will automatically trigger an explosion... That's the trickiest part.

He had to be stripped of his armor and let him appear naked in front of him for the battle to turn around.

"Boom ——!"

Another blaze, gushing with a wave of heat.

Rut Infinit dodged quickly, and the embers of the explosion swept past him, grabbing his sleeve slightly.

The leader of the Night's Watch who never looked back, dodging the explosion, kept being by the side of the elven assassin again and again, frantically probing.

Flames, bursting around the leader of the Night's Watch again and again, roaring, roaring!

"Come on, miscellaneous!" the enraged elven assassin's voice was hoarse, and the flames had spread from his blade to his body:

"Didn't you say you were going to kill me, come on, try it!"

Phew——!

With a swing of a long knife, two flames, one left and one right, struck at the leader of the Night's Watch.

Ruth Infinit's eyes changed suddenly, and his figure suddenly soared into the air, almost close to his body through the center of the two flames, and the dagger in his right hand suddenly fell, and he threw it violently, not giving the other party the slightest respite.

Bang!

As expected... Moments before it touched Eugen's body, the flames of the explosion flicked the dagger away.

The pitch-black dagger rolled in the air, and the expressionless Night Watch Assassin did not dodge, calmly waiting for the falling dagger to return to his hand "automatically".

And with the dagger came a dazzling golden red!

"Boom ——!"

Burning flames, torn apart from the center!

Furious, Eugen's face changed suddenly, and his eyes widened.

Dragging his body burned by the flames, the leader of the Night's Watch rushed out of the middle of the flames, the dagger in his hand stabbing straight into the elven assassin's face.

"Bell ——!"

The long, slashing knife barely jammed the stabbing dagger, holding the deadly tip less than five inches in front of the nose.

"Huh... Ha... Ha ......" gasped for breath, and the stunned elven assassin shuddered at first, and then became even more angry: "Crazy, crazy... Didn't I tell you that this weapon is useless to me?!"

"It's useless?" Root Infinit sneered: "If it's useless, why are you parrying?"

"...... you?!"

"You know, the wizard I mentioned to you... He's also a guy who likes to use flames. The voice of the leader of the Night's Watch was as cold as ever:

"Because of the battle with him, I learned a very useful little trick......"

"The arrogant power of the flame, the more powerful it is on the outside, but it is not so strong on the inside;"

"It's a... It's only what it seems. ”

Eugen's face twitched incessantly.

"Speaking of rage, that little bastard wizard once mentioned to me a very interesting theory. Gasping slightly, Rut Infinit's right hand holding the dagger kept pressing:

"He said... Anger is the result of fear reaching its extreme. ”

"In other words, you, who are so angry with me now... The Chief of the Overseer, Lord Eugen... The same fear of me reached its peak. ”

"I want to take advantage of this opportunity... Can you confirm it?"

"The Megalomaniacal——!!!!"

The enraged Eugen's expression was distorted to the extreme, and the long knife that stuck the dagger ignited again:

"No matter what moves you have, they won't work for me——!!!!"

Within three steps, the flames had struck.

There is no way to avoid it......

But I don't need to hide anymore.

Holding the handle of the knife tightly, Rut Infinit used a little force in his right hand to raise the tip of the blade slightly, and changed the direction of the aim from the tip of the nose to the forehead.

High-level spells, Force Impact.

"Boom ————!!!!"

The leader of the Night's Watch was blown away again, and the stench and charred smoke filled his body.

But in the next second, his figure rushed into the smoke and dust from the explosion again, and the dagger in his right hand was thrown straight at the figure in the center of the explosion.

"Bell ——!"

The dagger was flicked off by the long knife and firmly stuck in a pillar next to the main hall.

The leader of the Night's Watch, who was quick to dodge, let go of the falling knife and aimed the fingers of his right hand at Eugen's chest.

High-level spells, Force Impact.

Bang——!

There was another collision, and the gushing air wave was calmly dissolved at the moment of the explosion.

"Ridiculous——!"

The roaring elven assassin raised his long knife, and the moment the two figures of the two figures met with the bright blades, they fell again:

"You think ......"

"It's just a trick ......"

"Can you kill me——?!"

"Bell ——!"

The blade struck the arm armor of Ruth Infinit's right hand, mixing it with the steel plate forged by Mithril to create an additional crack.

But it also jammed his blade!

"I don't think it's ......"

Rut Infinit's cold, emotionless tone rang in the ears of the Overseer, Eugen.

"It's that I'm pretty sure ......"

"You... I'm going to die!"

Clang!

With a snapping sound, the Mithril Hidden Blade under his left arm and wrist slammed out.

The elven assassin's face changed suddenly!

At that moment, the leader of the Night's Watch in front of him went from being a fierce beast that suddenly opened its eyes to revealing its minions.

The blade is stuck, so there is nothing to be done with the blade that can spew flames......

The explosion that had just ended, so that the armor that was able to shelter him at the last time was also temporarily useless.

With a glance, Rut Infinit stabbed out the Hidden Blade in his left hand.

Well?!

At that moment, he suddenly felt a cold hair stand on end from head to toe.

His movements also slowed down.

Is it due to the murderous aura of the other party, or is it a trap that the enemy has prepared for a long time?!

No.

This is......

A stunned Rout Infinit's eyes widened, and with the help of "transcendent perception", his eyes saw things that he shouldn't have seen.

The Hidden Blade in his left hand, actually... Icing?

And the closer you get to the elven assassin's body, the thicker the ice becomes!

"Bang ——!"

The long knife drawn from the armor fell head-on, and the slab in front of Eugen's feet turned into rubble, and at the last second, Rut Infinit flashed five steps away.

"I'm not very good, but I run very fast......

The sneering Eugen raised his head, and his hoarse voice carried undisguised mockery: "It is worthy of being a secret agent hidden in the dark, only the ability to escape is more powerful." ”

The blue-faced leader of the Night's Watch fell to one knee, his body still in a last-minute attacking stance.

The prosthetic leg of his left hand and the armor of his right arm fell to the ground, turning into ice crystal shards, and were completely scrapped.

There was still a little frost left on the shards......

Rut Infinit frowned tightly.

"Looking at your expression, it seems to have come to your senses?" The corners of his mouth hung with an arc of joy, and the chief of the Overseer... Eugen raised the frost-covered blade, the chilling tip of the blade aimed at the night watchman's face:

"That's right, this is my 'way of the samurai'... It's not very popular. ”

"When I am angry, it turns into a fire and burns everything;"

"When my heart is full of joy, it turns into frost and robs me of temperature. ”

"I'm so happy today... Of all the opponents I've ever met, I've been able to show both abilities at the same time — and I'm not usually happy to meet a provocative scum like you. ”

Eugen approached step by step, and with his footsteps, the entire hall began to fill with ice mist:

"But for a split second, I... There really is an illusion that you were almost killed. ”

"Amazing!

"Then, to reward you, I will tell you the name of my way of the samurai......" But seeing the long knife in the elven assassin's hand, in the blink of an eye, the pillar five steps away had been frozen in ice:

"Thank you very much... can die under the knife of this inheritance of 400 years, 'idealistic celestial phenomena'. ”

"Usually I like to call it another name;"

"Fire and Ice!"
