Chapter 19: That year, I put my hands in my pockets.

Chapter 19: That year, I put my hands in my pockets.

At this time, Victor was at the lowest level of the volcano, in the sealed different space.

He put his hands in his pockets. His windbreaker fluttered under the heat wave.

A sentence automatically flashed through his mind.

That year, I put my hands in my pockets. Didn't know what an opponent was.

An astonishing fire pillar struck at him. Victor looked at it calmly. The magic array under his feet instantly rose up a curtain and easily withstood this attack.

With the blessing of countless magic arrays, he teleported and dodged. Waves spread everywhere.

In his eyes, the huge boss was just like a larger and very playable toy.

Guledon's body gradually rose. There was actually a small mountain on its back.

Lava gushed out from its body. And sand and stones were swept up along with it.

The sand and stones penetrated his body. But it seemed to hit a water curtain.

As a stream of water fell, the original Victor disappeared.

[Second-level magic: Water Phantom]

In the next second, the real Victor appeared behind the monster. In his hand, a tidal spear made of water condensed and stabbed at Guledon's butt.

Because of the elemental restraint relationship, Guledon felt very strong pain from the damage of the water gun.

In pain, it was extremely angry. Lava sprayed at Victor again.

Seeing Guledon's output becoming more and more intense, Victor easily dodged those fatal attacks with his invincible dodging.

As long as Guledon raised its hand, Victor would know what it was going to do.

Guledon thrust its palms into the ground. A soaring fire pillar erupted under Victor's feet.

Victor subconsciously waved his hand.

[Second-level magic: Water Curtain]

The instantly generated water-blue film withstood the offensive of the fire pillar.

Guledon narrowed its eyes as it looked at Victor who was dealing with it easily. Feeling extremely aggrieved in its heart, it let out a long roar and exhaled its unwillingness.

After a long battle, Victor was still as relaxed as at the beginning.

But Guledon's health bar had only dropped by about one-tenth.

Seeing that Victor could deal with it so easily, Vega immediately fell into self-reflection.

Being able to fight evenly with a calamity. Is this guy really a human?

Unable to figure it out, it simply gave up thinking and shouted at Victor:

"Hey, it's been several hours! Are you still going to continue fighting!?"

Hearing Vega say this, Victor thought for a moment.

When he first saw Guledon in the game, he and the player coalition fought with it for three days and three nights.

So...

"Then let's fight for another three days."

Victor rubbed his hands. He was looking forward to this hearty battle.

...

[Second-level magic: Galevis's Ice Storm]

[Second-level magic: Death Ritual]

[Second-level magic: Still Water]

...

Countless moves were used at Victor's fingertips. One magic array after another shone in the air like stars under dark clouds.

Looking at Victor who was pouring out spells, Vega was completely shocked in the air.

"Asshole. This guy is really abnormal."

"This is not the strength of a third-level mage."

Countless colorful shock waves continuously wore down the soaring monster.

The surrounding mountain rocks were also crushed and disappeared by the strong momentum.

Attacked by so many spells, Guledon felt like being hit by sharp thorns one by one. Although not fatal, it was very painful.

It swung its tail hard. The relatively narrow crater was suddenly cut off by half by it.

It fell into the magma with a loud rumble and splashed tens of thousands of feet high.

Victor stepped on the black formation. Instantly disappearing into the black fog.

Appearing on the intact crater on the other side again. Seizing the gap in the attack and continuing to output.

Guledon opened its fangs. A fireball like the sun was brewing in its throat.

Boom!

The fireball burst out suddenly and hit the mountain on one side.

The rocks cracked and smoke billowed into the sky.

Victor pinched the magic array and exchanged positions with the ice body buried not far away.

The ice body took the blow of this sudden magic ball instead of him. Turning into steam and disappearing into the air.

[Second-level magic, Ice Doppelganger]

All his remaining long-distance teleportations were on cooldown. Victor accurately grasped the maximum evasion distance of the ice doppelganger.

The flying sand and stones gently brushed past his clothes.

He didn't suffer any damage. The boss's skills just grazed him.

Victor put his hands together. A huge white door emitting white light appeared behind him.

[Third-level summoning: Malicious Whispers of the White Spirit]

As Victor gave the order, the huge white marble door behind slowly opened.

The gushing mist instantly swept across the entire volcano.

Vega's eyes were instantly covered by white mist. He shouted loudly: "Victor! Victor! I'm still here! Don't let what you summoned attack me!"

With Vega's knowledge, it certainly knew what Victor had summoned.

Malicious Whispers of the White Spirit. Attacking both enemies and allies.

Guledon was covered by this white mist. Constantly waving its huge claws trying to push aside the mist.

But the white mist was like a spider web bind around it. No matter how hard it was torn, it couldn't be torn apart.

A pair of slender and pale arms like withered branches slowly stretched out and grabbed at Guledon.

Guledon's head was grabbed by both hands and was firmly pulled towards the door.

But because the weight of the lava demon god was really too heavy, no matter how hard the white spirit pulled, it was in vain.

So the white door began to sway.

What first came out of the white spirit's body was a head. Or something like a head.

Seven eyes covered a circle around the head. Each glance made Guledon feel a strong dizziness.

Its body was still being pulled out. The lower body was like three sky-blocking pythons intertwined. Covering the lava at the bottom of the volcano.

It split open the skin at the back of its head. Forcibly a third arm appeared.

Pulling out the spine of the body and turning it into a sharp blade. It split open Guledon's rock armor.

Seeing the white door collapse, Victor could only put his hand on his forehead and sigh.

"This guy is still so reckless."

The strength of the summoned creature was not as good as his. The only advantage was that it was tougher than him.

With the entanglement of the white spirit, Victor freed himself. Cast dozens of weakening magics on the monster again and continued to prepare for the next round of magic.

Victor took out some materials from his backpack. Made some magic items on the spot and casually threw them at the boss.

The effect was minimal.

"It's better than nothing."

Vega looked at him and comforted himself.

Soon, after about ten percent of Guledon's health bar was emptied.

The flames in Guledon's eyes became brighter. The lava on its body also flowed rapidly.

Between its hands was tightly wrapped by an extremely fierce flame. Rock spikes were also gradually generated at its tail.

Victor's eyes lit up. A sense of restlessness arose in his heart.

He regained the feeling of fighting before.

That excitement made his brain be extremely excited.

In this form, Guledon's defense was greatly increased. At the same time, its skills were also strengthened a lot.

This was the real reason why it was called the furnace monster.

The flames turned into magma. The magma all over the ground made it impossible for Victor to find a place to stand.

The white spirit also screamed in pain from the stinging enhanced environment.

"Since there is no place for me to stand, then I will make it myself."

After Victor said that, he drew a regular square in the air.

With a snap of his fingers, a piece of water vapor turned into a block of ice with extremely high density and suspended in the air.

The battle was still going on. Victor stood on the ice block and continued to cast spells.

But Mount Vesuvius outside was in an astonishing state.

All the knights had long gone to the town at the foot of the mountain to evacuate the crowd. Only Gwen and a few knights were left and retreated to the mountainside. Keeping an eye on whether there would be any special abnormalities in the volcano.

As Gwen's intuition had expected, it really appeared.

They raised their heads and stared at the gradually reddening surface of the volcano. Streams of water vapor rose from the crater. It was like revealing the real color inside after the shell fell off.

"Knight Captain, this crater is already as hot as an iron plate!"

A knight following her reminded.

Gwen's eyes were solemn. She turned and notified several knights:

"Quick! Report to the capital immediately! Request reinforcements!"

The knights nodded and ran towards the town and used the magic crystal to contact the capital.

...

In the duke's mansion.

Erica was in her room. Holding a bottle of blue potion. Sitting on the bed. Looking dazed.

She felt that all the knowledge she had learned in her life was in vain.

If it was before, she would think that spending so much money to buy just a few bottles of potion must be a loss.

"Just this bottle of potion can sell for a thousand gios?"

But now all she could think was:

"This thing is only sold for a thousand gios?"

She stared at the potion in her hand in a daze. Her mind was in a mess.

The duke had gone out on business and hadn't returned home yet. But she couldn't wait to tell her father about this discovery.

"Your Grace, do I need to inform the young lady that you have returned?"

Hearing the servant's voice outside the door, she was like an excited fawn and rushed out in a flash.

But the answer from Duke Levi made her a bit at a loss.

"No need. Tell her that I have to go on a long trip and won't be back for several days."

Erica, who was standing at the door, heard the whole process and stopped.

Duke Levi saw that his beloved daughter had heard it. Showing a wry smile.

"Erica, the emperor has issued a task and needs urgent support."

She was very confused and couldn't help asking the duke:

"Father, you are clearly a duke. Why do you have to go in person?"

Duke Levi beckoned her to come forward. Erica obediently walked over.

He touched Erica's head and gently explained:

"Good daughter. This is not a small matter. All third-level mages in the capital must go. Second-level mages are naturally also in the queue."

"Because you are relatively young. So you won't be summoned by the royal family."

Erica suddenly remembered Victor who went on a mission a few days ago.

He was also a third-level mage.

Now her father has also been summoned. Could they be going to the same place?

"What exactly happened there? Why do so many mages are needed?"

Erica asked the doubts in her heart. Before the duke could continue to explain, she said eagerly:

"I want to go too!"

Hearing Erica say this, Duke Levi became a lot more serious and immediately refused.

"No. You are still young. And you still have to go to school."

"I'm not young anymore. I am now a second-level mage. If all second-level and third-level mages in the capital have to leave. The college is naturally no exception. Do I have to ask the dean to teach me personally?"

She knew that the dean would not leave the capital easily. Because he was the only fourth-level holy mage in the capital. He needed to personally sit in the capital to deter those illegal elements hidden in the dark.

As for others, Erica was conceited and confident that except for Victor, no one in the college could teach her anymore.

"Even if you say so..."

The duke thought carefully for a while. Hesitated for a while.

Just as Erica said, she was already not young.

At seventeen years old, she would be an adult next year.

He couldn't always protect Erica in his hands. Otherwise, she would always be a fledgling.

Erica had her own dreams. So when necessary, he had to let go of Erica.

He couldn't let his excessive fatherly love damage his daughter's proud wings.

"Okay, Erica. I allow you to accompany me."

"The place we are going is Mount Vesuvius. The Royal Knights have sent out a rescue signal."

"To be precise, Mount Vesuvius may erupt."
