"Your Highness, please be careful. This man is using true teleportation, and..."
[Hawkeye] Triss drew his longsword, cautiously observing the newcomer before him, and whispered to Norren behind him:
"His strength is probably above mine."
【Eagle Eye】Trist possesses the powerful trait passed down through the bloodline of the Organ family, a noble knight family in the Kingdom of Geolar. His powerful far-sightedness is comparable to that of a telescope, and his dynamic vision is so strong that he can see the trajectory of a bullet. His meticulous observation ability can see through the subtle movements of muscles. Combined with his superhuman reflexes, combat experience, and consummate combat skills, he can gain an overwhelming advantage against any enemy, except for those overpowered heroes.
The black-haired boy who came from across space had no intention of hiding his strength. He released his powerful magic and aura without reservation. Not only did this simple strength move Hawkeye Trissard, but his keen observation also revealed that the black-haired boy's natural and flawless stance made him realize that his opponent's combat skills might not be inferior to his own.
[He doesn't show any characteristics of demons or demi-humans; he looks human. So young, yet possessing such strength and that bizarre spatial teleportation technology—why have I never heard anything about this black-haired boy before?]
【Hawkeye】Trist felt both puzzled and uneasy. Facing this strange and unknown enemy, he knew nothing about the opponent's methods and abilities and could only slowly probe. As one of the well-known 【Three Heroes】, the opponent was very likely to know some of his information. In terms of intelligence during the battle, he was already at a natural disadvantage.
"We'd better talk to them first."
【Hawkeye】Trist looked at the black-haired boy in front of him with a solemn expression, and whispered a warning to Princess Norren behind him.
"Eagle Eye, you're not confident either?"
Norren asked in a low voice. While hiding behind Hawkeye Triss, she was also secretly observing the features of the black-haired boy in front of her, searching for information that could help her deduce his identity.
"No, the other party's methods are too bizarre, and I cannot guarantee your safety."
【Hawkeye】Trist responded to Norren’s question in a low voice. At the same time, his nerves were constantly on edge, and his eyes never left the black-haired boy in front of him, guarding against the other party’s strange and sudden attacks. The two methods that the other party had just revealed, whether it was the green light that burst out of thin air and instantly killed a group of knights, or the instantaneous teleportation that appeared out of thin air, both made him feel extremely troubled.
"hateful…"
Noren gritted her teeth and muttered a complaint. She was also feeling troubled. The Eagle Eye Triss and the thousand elite knights beside her could not give her any sense of security. If the other party had mastered true teleportation that could cross space, they could kill her instantly and escape easily. This feeling of not having her life in her own hands was really annoying. Moreover, using this as the basis for negotiation, she was in a natural disadvantage.
His brain was racing, all the known information was being arranged and combined as Noren pondered the true identity of the black-haired boy before him and a way to break the deadlock.
[The staff he held resembled the Vanargand staff of Freya, and the green jewel held in the mouth of the snake coiled around it perfectly matched the characteristics of a divine weapon transformed from divine armor. Was he a hero? Only heroes are qualified to wield divine weapons.]
No wonder Hawkeye Triss wasn't confident he could defeat him; the staff-like divine armor suggests he's a spellcaster. Currently, only the Spellcaster and Healer heroes fit this description.
A sudden burst of green light shone on the knights, and then they died mysteriously, blood gushing from their bodies, their plate armor ignoring the defenses and directly destroying their bodies.
The green light resembles the healing magic of the missing Healer. If my understanding of his concept of using the decomposition and reconstruction properties of healing magic to create destructive power is correct…
The man before me is none other than the missing Healer, Kayal!
[His current appearance is a disguise created using restorative magic; the divine equipment was looted from Freya after he killed her.]
[No, there's another possibility. Freya might not be dead, but rather brainwashed and controlled by him using some unorthodox method he developed with healing magic. This divine weapon was looted after he killed the Sword Hero.]
[Using healing magic to disguise herself as a woman named Alice, she deliberately approached the Sword Hero, Breed, and then used healing magic to kill her when the lesbian pervert lowered her guard. This would explain the Sword Hero's mysterious disappearance.]
[That trace of a sword duel was most likely a smokescreen he deliberately created. Knowing I had arrived in this town, he used this method to confuse me and make me make the wrong judgment. No wonder my fiancé is praised for his intelligence and talent; I almost fell for his trick.]
[Since Freya has been brainwashed and enslaved, then the Sword Saint Kree, who went hunting in the Monster Forest with the Healer and is now also missing, should have been affected as well. Perhaps she was the swordsman who set up the smokescreen.]
Why did he come to the town of Blanik? And why did he want to assassinate the Sword Hero? Was it merely to steal the divine weapon? Didn't Freya have one too? Could it be that he couldn't bear to kill her? That makes sense; if he were a man, there's no reason he wouldn't be lustful towards Freya.
[Although this is just one possibility, if it's true... it means the enemy has the fighting power of two heroes and a sword saint. Who knows where Freya and that stupid woman Kree are hiding right now.]
[Tsk... First, we need to figure out a way to break this deadlock. Why is the Hero of Healing saving these civilians who have nothing to do with him? This approach clearly doesn't benefit him at all.]
Is it because of a sense of justice? Choosing to be an enemy of the Kingdom of Geolar for such a trivial matter?
[Then, let's use the lives of the civilians in Blanico as bargaining chips. Since the goal is to save civilians, we'll naturally be concerned about their lives.]
Although my life is currently in his hands as a bargaining chip, I can use threats to make him hesitate and temporarily ensure my safety. The homeland of the Healer can also be used as leverage.
First... you must use your power to intimidate others.
