Wizard: I brought the wrong system.

Chapter 533 Foolish! If I keep you, aren't you all mine?

Yaro only just realized it.

Finding Heri and the other woman won't be difficult.

It's not difficult to get close to them.

The real challenge lies in how to get them out of there.

—This is really tricky!

"Actually, we don't need to fight to the death, right?"

As Yaro spoke, a large amount of gold dust burned, transforming into abyssal magic, which continuously poured into the body of the Black Flame Phoenix. The Black Flame Phoenix's aura surged, and flames shot straight into the sky.

Although it was not even as tall as the giant's knee, its imposing presence was in no way inferior.

"We've already faced off twice, and we have a general understanding of each other's strengths."

"Your witchcraft does indeed generate an astonishing level of magical power, but the intensity is insufficient... Have you not mastered formal wizard-level witchcraft?"

The giant squinted slightly, and a gentle breeze blew, filling the air with a moist scent.

However, this damp wind was also blocked by the Black Flame Phoenix, and Yaro and the others did not even notice it.

Arro assumed he was still silent and continued to persuade him:
"You may have other tricks up your sleeve, but do you think I don't?"

"If you can't keep me here, there's no point in continuing to fight."

"Why don't we take advantage of the fact that neither of our core interests has been damaged and the hatred isn't deep enough to just shake hands and make peace to cut our losses in time? Wouldn't that be a win-win situation?"

If they use 'Starry Surge' or fully activate the fourth level of magic, these powerful area-of-effect attacks would definitely overwhelm Bevin and Heri.

However, other methods are far too limited in their effectiveness against a giant nearly twenty stories tall.

Yaro could only try again to see if he could negotiate a peace with the giants.

"Ha! A win-win situation?" The giant sneered. "You broke into my house, trampled my guards, killed my servants, and ransacked my home! And then you tell me that if I don't retaliate, it's a win-win situation?"

The giant's voice boomed like thunder, "Don't you find this ridiculous!"

Um... now that he says it, it does sound kind of funny?

Still dazed, Heri fearlessly cast an indignant glance after hearing the giant's 'slander'.

She thought she was dreaming... Even monsters in dreams are not allowed to speak ill of Lord Yaro!

Bevan, who was standing nearby, knew the reason for the incident and quickly spoke up to defend himself:
"Sir, you've misunderstood. My teacher didn't intentionally enter your room. We accidentally wandered in here, and my teacher was looking for us..."

"Teacher? Hahaha!"

The giant's laughter was deafening, completely drowning out Bevin's voice.

A moment later, his smile vanished, and his face, covered with countless eyes, stared intently at the fire phoenix.

"You're just a mid-level apprentice who's not even a formal wizard, taking a mortal as your student? Is this your excuse? To dump your ridiculous student in my house and then follow this path to probe the defenses of this space?"

Bevan said anxiously, "No, sir..."

"Alright, that's enough."

Yaro waved his hand to interrupt.

"……teacher?"

Bevan stared in astonishment at the strange flames, at the figure that resembled a demon god.

Yaro offered no explanation.

Because he is very familiar with and understands the thought process of giants.

If aspiring wizards are like crops or seedlings, then they are worth putting in some effort. But ordinary people who haven't even entered the door are just ordinary wheat—not even worthy of being called seeds.

Just like when the Owl Academy used to recruit students, those who failed the death test would be sent to the academy by horse-drawn carriage.

The students who had just arrived on this continent had their mental energy stimulated by the void energy, making them easily able to perceive strange spaces.

Once the 'fishing' is successful, the academy's official wizards will intervene and pull those eerie spaces back to the academy. Using these 'useless wheat' to 'fish' not only clears out dangerous eerie spaces and maintains the stability of the surrounding kingdoms, but also allows the academy to 'reap a harvest'—isn't that a 'win-win' situation?
—Doesn't this sound a lot like the current situation?
This is exactly what the giants are worried about.

At the same time, he held similar views on ordinary people and believed that others were the same.

It could be said that they objectified ordinary people, or it could be said that they never regarded ordinary people as their own kind.

Therefore, no matter how much Bevin explains, it's useless.

He wouldn't care, because what could a mere mortal know, and he wouldn't believe that Yaro truly considered Bevin a student.

“This is indeed a misunderstanding,” Yaro said, looking at the giant, “but I am willing to offer reasonable compensation for this misunderstanding!”

"This knowledge, worth 1,500 magic stones, should be enough to compensate, right?"

As he spoke, Yaro once again took out a book titled "Blood Frenzy" from his spatial ring.

There are many people who need to learn "Qi and Blood Frenzy", so Ya Luo has naturally prepared quite a few books.

"Not enough!" the giant said coldly.

not enough?

So there's room for negotiation?

Yaro thought for a moment and then said, "I can add another hundred magic stones... That's quite a lot. The spider I killed before was only worth that much."

The living female Golden Crown Python, whose entire body is valuable, also possesses the strength of a high-level apprentice, yet it is only worth a few hundred magic stones.

The Spider Woman is definitely not as good as a live Golden Crown Python, so one hundred magic stones is a reasonable price.

Furthermore, Yaro had reserved two hundred magic stones as a reserve—Yaro would readily agree to anything the giant asked for.

The giant remained silent for a moment.

……

……

"Foolish! If I keep you, aren't you all mine?"

Yaro: "?!"

Before he could react, the world changed color instantly.

The wind howled, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and torrential rain poured down!

Rumble!
The temperature plummeted, and the torrential rain turned into a barrage of icy blades, relentlessly bombarding the fire phoenix on the ground.

The sky was trembling, the earth was shaking, mountains were collapsing, and mud and rocks were rolling!
The turbid torrent swept in, carrying a large number of giant logs, like a giant meat grinder, and swept in rapidly!

At this moment, Yaro felt utterly despised and rejected by heaven and earth!

"hateful!"

Yaro was so angry that his face turned pale.

That was something I should have said!
"fire!"

With a roar, the Black Flame Phoenix, which had already burned more than eight hundred gold coins, expanded to three times its original size!
This is all the gold coins that Yarrow has, including the box of gold coins that the countess's daughter gave him that he has never used!
The phoenix spread its wings high, and everything that swept in—rain, ice blades, torrents—was transformed into fuel for the magic of the abyss!

"Your witchcraft—is very effective!"

We can't let this go unpunished; we have to respond with a counter-attack!

"Chirp—!"

The Black Flame Phoenix raised its head and cried out, and rolling black flames instantly spread, quickly igniting the entire world!

呲呲!

From the edge, sharp, piercing sounds kept coming, like a red-hot iron block being put into cold water!
"kill!"

With Yaro's angry roar, the Black Flame Phoenix spurted a giant, viscous fireball, over thirty meters in size, at the giant!
