Ivan had no intention of standing around waiting to be killed, and upon locating the position of the assassinator, he signaled to the swamp ant and the flame scorpion, assigning each their own attack targets.
On the left was the swamp ant, on the right was the flame scorpion.
He himself struck out with a palm, and the Black Magic Hand coalesced in an instant. The Grey-green palm, entwined with grey-green flames, pressed forward.
This palm strike was tremendously forceful.
Facing such an enormous palm, the assailant ahead seemed completely unaware, continuing to charge forward rapidly. Soon, they clashed with the fiery giant palm, his figure shifting as he stabbed a short spear into the flaming palm.
Where the spear's tip struck, a gap appeared.
"Kolebas, Dark Elf, it turns out to be you. You must have been waiting for a long time."
