"Easy!"
Valtos's voice was full of confidence, and the magic power in his hand condensed into a dark purple magic bullet.
At the same time, two dark, oval-shaped spatial passages silently opened in front of him and behind Lorne and Asta.
Valtos sneered and shot the magic bullet in his hand into the spatial passage in front of him.
The next moment, the magic bullet emerged from the passage behind Lorne and Asta, heading straight for their backs!
However, this time Yami did not move, still staring intently at Patry.
And Lorne, facing this sneak attack from behind, didn't even turn his head.
Crack!
A clear ice crystal instantly condensed and formed behind him.
Bang!
The dark purple magic bullet collided with the ice crystal, and without even a ripple, it was frozen, shattered, and dissipated into harmless magic particles in the air.
"..."
Lorne felt a surge of speechlessness.
Was this Valtos guy a bit too arrogant?
A typical case of not learning from mistakes.
He actually dared to openly open a spatial passage in front of the enemy, as if the opponents were all fools and couldn't figure out what he was trying to do.
This kind of trick, wasn't he afraid it would be used against him?
"What?!"
Valtos, seeing his attack easily neutralized, immediately wanted to close the two spatial passages.
However, it was already too late.
Just as he was about to act, at the moment the spatial passages were about to close!
Lorne's movements were as fast as lightning, even faster than Valtos's thoughts!
"Eternal Silence Ice Thorn."
Whoosh—!
An ice thorn, more condensed and sharper than any previous one, shot out from Lorne's hand, carrying an bone-chilling cold!
Its target was not Patry in front, nor Valtos beside him.
But... the spatial passage behind him, which was about to close!
The ice thorn's speed was extreme, turning into an almost invisible white line, accurately and precisely entering that dark, distorted space.
On the other side, Valtos, who was about to close the passage, suddenly felt an extreme danger coming from the spatial passage in front of him!
He suddenly widened his eyes!
What was that?!
He only saw a flash of white light pass through the passage!
He didn't even have time to react, his body's instincts hadn't even transmitted a command to dodge.
"Pfft!"
A dull thud of a sharp blade entering flesh.
Valtos's body suddenly stiffened, and he lowered his head in disbelief.
A glinting ice thorn had passed through the spatial passage in front of him and also pierced his abdomen.
The icy chill instantly invaded his limbs and bones, freezing his magic power and life force simultaneously.
"Ugh..."
Valtos opened his mouth, and blood mixed with ice shards gushed out.
The confidence on his face froze, replaced by endless shock and confusion.
His magic was used... to defeat himself in return?
Thud!
His body fell straight backward, hitting the ground with a heavy thud.
Silence.
Deathly silence.
"..."
Patry looked at Valtos, who had instantly fallen to the ground, his life unknown, and was completely stunned.
The eyes that had always maintained indifference showed violent fluctuations.
He slowly turned his head, his gaze like two sharp swords piercing Lorne.
"You..."
His voice trembled.
"You actually dared to... Valtos..."
It was an emotion mixed with shock, fury, and disbelief.
Valtos was one of his important companions!
And now he was... fallen in front of him?
In such a humiliating way!
"I will never!"
Patry's voice suddenly rose, no longer calm in the slightest, only a hysterical roar remained.
"I will never let you harm any more of my brethren!!"
Boom—!!!
Brilliant golden magic power erupted from his body, the four-leaf grimoire flipped wildly, and the light was so dazzling it was impossible to look directly at it!
