Kazumo seemed confused and took a while to react to my words.

Perhaps he was startled by accidentally killing so many people.

"Um..."

I was about to explain when he interrupted me.

"Wow, that was amazing!"

Kazumo's eyes were filled with excited little stars.

"How did you freeze them all? That was incredible, taking them all out at once!"

"Oh? It's ice magic."

"Oh, I see! I heard that mages from the West are more powerful than Onmyoji here, but I never thought they could defeat so many people at once!"

"Um..."

Is Onmyoji not allowed?

Oh well, it seems like it would be complicated to explain to her.

"Anyway, the city is quite dangerous right now. Let me take you back to the academy first."

"Oh, by the way, what happened? People on the streets have been acting weird since a while ago. Po Tian City has always been chaotic, but this is the first time I've seen something like this."

"Just think of it as battling monsters... No, I mean a gang fight."

"Gang fight!? Wow, I can't believe the gangs have become so audacious lately. Anyway, let's go."

"Alright, hold my hand tightly."

"Um... about that."

"..."

It seems she misunderstood something. In this situation, I could only sigh and reach out to grab her hand, teleporting both of us to a location near the entrance of their academy.

"Wow! Was that a teleportation skill? What was it called? I think my master said that mages who can use teleportation skills are very powerful mages! Is it called the Oath Mage?"

"Oh, really?"

Since I can directly see the opponent's level, I didn't pay attention to the level of the mage.

And, for example, someone like me, who is just a novice mage, has no problem fighting against an intelligent mage.

"Anyway, let's hurry back to the school. Otherwise, your brother will go crazy again."

"What about you?"

"Me? I'm going to level up... no, I mean, I'm going to punish the evildoers and eliminate those troublemaking enemies on the streets."

"I want to go too!"

"No!"

I decisively stopped her.

No way, if I go to level up, I can respawn if I die, but Kazumo is a person in this world. If she gets killed, I can only... turn her into a zombie and revive her.

That is unacceptable.

I'm not like some perverted male protagonist who likes zombie girls.

And I already know Blanche, who is a half-zombie, among the people I know. I don't want to know too many zombies.

Of course, if she was a zombie from the beginning, then there's nothing I can do.

Snap out of it, but I saw Kazumo looking at me reluctantly.

"Uh..."

Helplessly, I sighed and took out an ice magic skill book from my backpack and handed it to her.

"Here, since you're interested in magic, I'll give you this magic book. But promise me, you can't leave the academy, okay?"

"Oh, okay!"

Seeing her happily accept the book, I felt relieved.

"Alright, then I'll go first."

"Okay, bye."

This guy sat down next to me and started reading.

Should I say this guy is a very serious and studious good kid?

Well...

While thinking, I quickly activated all the acceleration skills and ran towards the city in a hurry.

There's no other way, my magic is not fully recovered, so I can't use Flash.

After a moment, I had already rushed into the battlefield.

Surrounded by three types of names - teammates' names in green, ordinary people's names in white, and enemies' names in red - constantly moving around, it was dazzling to look at.

"What a terrible situation..."

And now, since the battles are only settled after they end, I have no idea about the current battle situation.

"What are you guys doing?"

Freezing the lower half of an enemy rushing towards me, I walked towards a few green names.

"Fight the boss."

Aliyah responded simply.

"Where is it?"

"Look to the east, at that building with a very sharp top."

"Huh?"

I looked up in the direction she indicated, and there was a building that resembled a sharp tower.

And after a while, I don't know what kind of attack it was, but it sliced the entire building into halves as if it were cutting through paper!

However, since its structure didn't seem to be that solid, the whole building collapsed into several sections with a loud noise.

"Are you guys here for demolition?"

"I didn't do this, you should ask the guy Bai."

"Don't call me that, you guys are too skilled at talking, don't you feel tired to use skills and type at the same time?"

After several seconds, Bai Yueguang finally responded.

"We're used to it."

Not only me and Aliyah, even Ms. Mary and Taishi Xi answered this way.

"But I'm just too lazy to type."

I could imagine the expression on Taishi Xi's face when he said this - a look of disdain.

As I finished saying these words, I had already rushed to the collapsing tower. Although it was still collapsing, it seemed like it was going to become a complete ruin.

Just as I landed, an attack alarm came from behind me! I pressed on the floor and the ice totem lifted me into the air!

Before I could rise much higher, a sword shadow cut through my ice totem. If I hadn't reacted quickly, it could have been me who got cut.

I urgently flipped over and landed on the side, while looking in the direction of the attack.

Huh?

No one?

No, in my perception, anyone who uses sword skills or knife skills to attack me should be within the range of my sight. Even if there are people farther away, they shouldn't be able to attack like this...

Just as I was contemplating this, the attack warning sounded again, this time the target was directly in front!

Invisibility? Long-range?

Just as I was still hesitating, a beam of light came straight towards me from a distance! I quickly summoned the Palace of Ice, and right when the ice wall stood up, the opponent's strike landed directly on the ice castle! The entire ice castle split into two at the center!

Damn it! What kind of strange technique is this? How can it cut through my defensive magic from such a distance?

And less than three seconds later, another attack alarm sounded from behind me. This time, before I could even turn around, I heard the sound of swords clashing behind me.

"Hey, hey, hey, stop daydreaming!"

As I turned around, I was surprised to see Bai Yueguang holding the opponent back with a knife attack!

The opponent was wearing a black wanderer's hat, and his name...wait, wasn't he just far away from me on the opposite side?
