Their expressions changed so quickly that no one except Erica noticed.
Just as Erica was pondering their intentions, Haim Horn suddenly shouted:
"That wretched dark mage! He's hurt so many of our mages!"
"Are you trying to fool us, the Mage Council, by saying we have no one to rely on?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, powerful magic surged from his arms, wrapping around his body.
Streams of magical energy swirled around him, forming intricate patterns that resembled a radiant digital network, growing ever stronger.
Sensing Heim Horn gathering magic beside him, Rachel remained silent.
They simply leaned on their canes and silently gathered magic as well.
Erica: "..."
No? Didn't you two know that Professor Victor was in Parliament?
Why are you treating me like an enemy too?
Erica found it hard to imagine the mental state of these two highly respected members of parliament.
But she couldn't just stand by and watch herself get beaten up.
If all else fails, use a weaker spell to stop them.
"Echoing..."
...O free wind over the open hills, please blow, please come.
As it turned out, he hadn't finished speaking.
As soon as she uttered the first two words, the dark magic power around her surged and swirled out.
In an instant, a heavy darkness engulfed everything, and a pitch-black substance filled with the aura of death shattered the surrounding forest.
It encroached upon space and crashed violently onto the earth.
A violent shockwave surged up instantly, as oppressive and terrifying as a wave caused by a giant whale, sweeping across the bodies of Rachel and Heim Horn.
"ah!"
Heim Horn feigned pain, let out a scream, and jumped back, falling to the ground.
With a thud, his seemingly mechanical head hit the ground, and he fainted.
Rachel, standing to the side, remained silent in the face of this magic.
He glanced at the fallen Heim Horn, his lips twitching slightly.
At his age, he obviously cannot move like Heim.
So he silently dropped his cane, slowly bent down, and lay down on the ground.
This scene left Erica speechless, and even the mages around her were speechless.
They stared wide-eyed at the two men lying on the ground, their eyes filled with despair.
"A congressman... even a congressman isn't a match for him?"
"Is this the dark archmage prophesied... someone capable of destroying the world?"
If even the councilors on whom they placed their hopes could not resist, who else could stop this dark sorcerer?
But just when they were sinking into despair,
A star pattern appeared out of thin air, interrupting the dark magic surrounding the Dark Archmage.
In an instant, the light flashed.
Under the astonished gazes of countless mages, everyone saw a crown gleaming with golden light.
It appeared before everyone like a golden sun full of hope.
Then, under the silent gaze of Erica and all the mages,
Aurelion, who had just appeared, slowly brought her hands together, and the magic around her surged out like a storm, condensing into a chaotic vortex.
Stellar magic flowed under her guidance, and mysterious totems shimmered in her pupils.
For a moment, the forest, swallowed by darkness, seemed to freeze.
Magic surged, the darkness receded swiftly, leaving stars floating in the pitch-black void.
Under the watchful eyes of countless people, Aurelion glanced at Erica lying on the ground and sighed helplessly.
She silently used magic to create a curved protective shell that tightly wrapped around Erica's body.
Then, Erica's body floated gently and was gently placed behind her by Aurelione.
"Protect her well."
After bringing Erica back safely, Aurelion's gaze turned coldly ahead.
He looked directly at the dark archmage before him and said:
“Those are people from my country.”
"You have no right to touch it."
