Castorice moved extremely fast. To prevent Derick from already being caught up in the fierce battle, she ran towards the center of Castrum Kremnos without turning her head.
Mydei and Trianne followed closely behind.
"Little Mydei, you go ahead first, I can't keep up. I'll rest for a bit then catch up." Trianne started running out of breath and waved for Mydei to go on ahead.
"Lady Trianne, Castrum Kremnos is very dangerous. It's very risky for you to fall behind alone."
After thinking for a moment, Mydei reached out, grabbed the back of Trianne's clothes, and lifted her up like a handbag.
"Little Mydei!"
"Lady Trianne, please endure it for a moment."
Mydei started sprinting.
If Derick saw this way of holding Trianne, he would definitely complain about how Cipher carried him.
Look at Mydei, no physical contact at all, so appropriate. Now look at you, just picking me up without saying anything.
...
The battle between Nikador and the Flame Reaver continued.
The Flame Reaver flicked Nikador's spear aside in an instant, the black blade pierced His body, then stirred lightly, cutting off Nikador's head and shoulders.
After doing this, the Flame Reaver floated in mid-air, waiting.
Unlike when facing Derick's avatar, the Flame Reaver was prepared for Nikador's resurrection.
Nikador quickly recovered his body and vitality, roared at the Flame Reaver, leaped up, swung his spear, and attacked again.
The Flame Reaver dodged sideways, gripped his blade, and went straight for Nikador's body.
After a few attacks, Nikador's body was split apart again.
...
Derick and Cipher watched the situation here.
"This cloaked weirdo is actually so strong. The key is, he's not a Titan either. Where on earth did this guy come from?" Cipher pondered.
Then, thinking of a possibility, her expression changed slightly.
"This guy, could he be from the Black Tide? If that's the case, Amphoreus might be in even greater danger."
No, actually, this Flame Reaver's origin might be more complicated.
Derick thought to himself on the side.
But when he transmigrated, the game hadn't explicitly stated the Flame Reaver's specific origin.
Moreover, this was the real world, and the plot might differ from the game. At least in the game's plot, there was no record of the Flame Reaver and Nikador fighting.
Now these two guys were fighting, and the scene was quite intense.
Derick and Cipher continued watching the battle.
Watching the Flame Reaver and Nikador fight increasingly fiercely, Cipher and Derick gradually calmed down from their initial tension.
"Fight, fight, it's best if these two guys kill each other." Cipher muttered softly. At the same time, she took out a bag of snacks and handed it to Derick beside her.
"Derick, here, have some nuts."
"Okay."
Derick took them.
"This cloaked weirdo is so fast, look, Nikador almost got tripped."
"Yeah. Wait, where is Nikador attacking from? Is that guy aiming to... castrate that pitch-black fellow?"
Derick chatted casually, almost saying the name 'Flame Reaver'.
"They're both monsters, how can you talk about descendants? Whether they even have that function is another matter. Hey, I finished my snacks, Derick, do you have any more? Give me half."
Derick poured some snacks into Cipher's hand.
Cipher picked up the snacks, ready to eat, but just as she brought them to her mouth, she paused.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Cipher's action, Derick asked puzzledly.
"Someone else is here. Your Miss Castorice has come looking for you," Cipher said to Derick.
"Castorice is here!"
Derick jumped up in pleasant surprise, but Cipher pushed him back down.
"Hey, the Flame Reaver and Nikador are still over here. Exposing yourself would be dangerous."
Castorice quickly approached. Derick could feel the strong aura of death. When she appeared in the arena of Castrum Kremnos, both Nikador and the Flame Reaver noticed her.
"She came just in time."
The Flame Reaver thought, quickly moving behind Nikador. Pushing off hard with both feet, he kicked Nikador heavily in the back.
Taking the heavy blow, Nikador's entire body flew towards Castorice.
Nikador landed heavily beside Castorice. Lifting his body and seeing Castorice, He attacked her without a second thought.
Castorice hadn't expected to encounter this situation right after arriving in Castrum Kremnos without even finding Derick. However, facing Nikador's attack, Castorice didn't dare be careless, swinging her scythe cautiously to deal with it.
The Flame Reaver watched their battle, also raising his weapon, preparing to launch indiscriminate attacks against both Castorice and Nikador. But just then, a huge stone slab flew towards him.
The Flame Reaver dodged it, then saw Mydei charging towards him.
"Your opponent is me."
Attacking with his fists, Mydei shouted.
Seeing Mydei charge over, the Flame Reaver couldn't help but feel a headache.
How unlucky was he today? The guys he encountered weren't particularly strong, but these weak guys were all immortal, making them extremely troublesome to fight.
Thinking this, his hands didn't slow down, swinging both weapons to attack Mydei.
...
"Hey, Derick, does that idiot Nikador even know His opponent is the cloaked weirdo? Why attack Castorice for no reason?"
The battle situation changed instantly. Seeing Nikador like this, Cipher put her hands on her hips, very angry.
She glanced back at Derick, wanting to stop him from doing anything rash.
That woman Castorice wasn't weak; facing Nikador, even if she couldn't win, she could escape. But Derick, with his small arms and legs, had no ability to fight back against Nikador.
"Cipher, can you help me get Castorice out of the battlefield?" Derick asked Cipher at this moment.
He hadn't forgotten the game's plot. While Nikador and Castorice fought, although he was anxious, he still glanced at the Blade of Condemnation in the sky. Seeing the energy in the Blade of Condemnation increasing, Derick knew what Nikador planned to do.
He just wanted to fight, regardless of who He fought.
So, quickly pull Castorice out, and He would naturally go back to fight the Flame Reaver.
"Oh? Asking me for help? Fine, but you'll have to pay extra later." Cipher narrowed her eyes into cat pupils, smiling sweetly at Derick.
No money? Then pay with your body!
Just right, this guy can't tell that Castorice actually has no problem escaping, so I'll properly trick you.
Cipher thought smugly to herself.
