As soon as Ethan finished speaking, he dispelled his **Polymorph**, drew a yellow card, and threw it directly at Rythys.
**Ding!**
Rythys barely had a chance to react as the card struck, freezing him in place with a look of shock on his face. Ethan smirked, wasting no time as he activated **Shadow Strike** and dashed toward his stunned target. In a flash of darkness, Rythys's life was brought to zero.
**[Ding! You have slain Fire Mage - Rythys Raia.]**
"All set!"
Ethan dusted off his hands, turning back to look at the Drow guard beside him, who was standing slack-jawed, utterly dumbfounded at the sight before him.
Ethan chuckled, not paying him any mind, and turned his gaze upward. Suspended in mid-air was a magical stone the size of a human head, glowing faintly.
"**Blink!**"
He teleported right beside the stone, reached out, and swiftly stored it in his bag.
