Emery's figure appeared atop one of the tallest buildings located several miles below the elven battleship. Raising his head, he watched as the massive spaceship plunged from the sky, crashing into the ground and destroying buildings in its path. The crash was not enough to destroy a ship of its caliber, but he could see from afar the flames turning the dark night bright with hundreds of the elven warriors coming out trying to put out the fires. As for the black hole spell, Emery could sense that although it was weakening, it had done its job. It should be more than enough to ground the massive ship for a while. He swiftly spread his spirit reading to its maximum reach once again. First, he determined that the few seconds he was on the ship had carried him 300 miles away from his previous location. As for the Headmaster Dellbrand, although miles away, he could sense that he was still fighting against the one dark elf grand magus. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮 With that, Emery should have been able to take care of his next order of business. However before he was about to move, he was shocked to find that someone was staring back at him from a distance. He didn't see the figure's physical form, but he could clearly 'see' a pair of bright silver eyes staring as if they looked through his soul. Most importantly, he could feel palpable emotions a�" burning rage a�" from that unknown figure, so much so it exerted strong pressure that weakened his knees. "You dare to destroy my ship, Who are you, young magus?"A deep voice entered his mind, resounding like thunder rumbling. Feeling the formless pressure imposed upon his body, Emery was certain that the other party was a grand magus-level individual. One that possessed a spirit reading powerful enough to be able to affect his magus core from afar. Against such an individual, Emery would certainly not stay around and fight, especially in a battle of spirit reading. Hence he quickly cast [Blink] and disappeared from where he was. His destination was Silva's current location. With his spirit pool mostly drained, coupled by the pressure exerted by the unknown grand magus, Emery was only able to teleport at a limited distance. But it was still enough to avoid the group of elf magus that were hunting him. Alas, it didn't take long for them to finally follow his tracks as it seemed that they knew what his destination was. The location where a fight with a certain giant snake occurs. Even though it was dangerous to continue heading towards her, Emery still carried on. As difficult as it was, he just had to make sure he reached her faster than those people, and got her out as quickly as possible. Noticing that the fight at his destination was already settled, Emery could feel his chest beating hard as he worried about Silva's situation. "Hang in there Silva!" When he finally arrived, just as he expected, the girl had already returned to her human form. The sight of her caused a large scowl to appear on Emery's face. She swayed in a semi-conscious state and various wounds were visible on her body as she knelt on the ground. "Silva!!" Seeing the state she was in, Emery could feel a bubbling anger well up within him. However, he quickly calmed himself down as there were already three dark elf magus waiting for him. The female one, in particular, had the spear in her hand resting on Silva's shoulder. "You really did come for this girl, huh... you humans, your emotions always get the best of your logic. That's why you will never win this war." Emery had neither the time nor the patience to deal with the other party. Seeing Silva's condition once again, he took a deep breath before saying, "You have won, leave her alone and fight me instead!!" His mouth was saying such words but his palm was ready to cast a spell a spell which would push all three away from her" However, as if the female dark elf realized what he was doing, she intentionally created a deep scratch on Silva's neck with her spear. With a snicker, the female dark elf magus said, "Don't try anything foolish, we will wait until my superior arrived" Fortunately or unfortunately, Emery didn't need to wait long as ten dark elf magus swiftly arrived from behind him and there were still more on the way. However, Emery didn't care about any of them. What worried him the most was the grand magus figure who arrived, which apparently was not a dark elf as his long golden hair and shiny skin gave up his identity. The other party was a high elf grand magus. His silver eyes, however, told Emery that the man was the powerful spirit reader from before. Spirit reader was probably the type of enemy that Emery was most afraid of, as they could hinder his ability. As if that wasn't bad enough, the one who appeared here was a grand magus level. Without much option, Emery came up with a desperate solution. He turned and looked upon the said superior and said. "Let her go. Take me instead." It went without saying that Emery's words made the high elf grand magus chuckle, as well as the other magus around him. The former showed a wicked smile before saying, "And why would we do that?" "It's I that destroyed your ship! You don't need her, take my life instead!" Unexpectedly, those words elicited a response from the semi-conscious girl as she slowly opened her eyes and said weakly, "Fool.. Why... you here.. run... while you can..." Emery's heart beat hard once again hearing her weakened voice. He quickly came out with another solution. Pointing at Silva, he said "This girl, she is a princess of the powerful Ouroboros clan, don't kill her... the clan would very much pay for her ransom" However the wicked smile on the high elf grand magus' face widened as he said. "That's a better offer indeed, unfortunately there are too many human princes and princesses to go around, we have one already and right now I just want to relieve my rage for you destroying my ship" As soon as those words were spoken, Emery quickly reacted, putting his all into a quick movement to remove Silva from swordpoint. Unfortunately the grand magus was prepared with a spirit attack that would stop his movement. "No!!.. dont!!" He saw how the high elf gave a slight gesture and the female dark elf magus swung her spear. "NO!!!" The serpent girl's eyes were staring at him, there was a slight smile and few words spoken in whisper, before a cold sharp spear pierced out her chest from behind. Silva's lifeless body fell to the ground.
