Faced with the furious onslaught of Airel, Amberser subconsciously wanted to open his personal space and let Aige out to fight unrivaled.
But hearing her words, Amberser realized that his identity had not been exposed, and if he acted now, he would enter a state of war, which would make searching for the Divine Artifact troublesome.
Seeing Airel's hammer about to strike down, Amberser quickly wrapped himself in a Mage Shield, a spell known by all spellcasters, so he wasn't worried about giving himself away.
Lightning burst forth, crackling his Mage Shield with a web of fractures.
Amberser was startled. Was this girl really that fierce? Even without the blessings of the Golden Throne, she shouldn't be able to shatter his Mage Shield with a casual strike, right?
Airel was even more surprised than Amberser. In her mind, Monger Greyriver would have been dead or severely injured after taking such a blow; such was the ferocity of a follower of the Lord of the Storm.
