American Comics: Borrowed Magic By Skill, Why Should I Return It?

"Boss, why did you actually come?" Chu Xiu said helplessly when he saw the Ancient One.

Mephisto must have set a trap for you, waiting so confidently for you to come.

Why did you actually come?

"Elder, you should go back quickly. I can handle things here," Chu Xiu said, taking out a demon-expelling card.

Using the same reasoning, he tried to persuade the Ancient One to leave this place.

There are only a few Hell Lords here. Even if I can't defeat them, I can drive them away at any time.

"Somebody has provoked the people of my Kamar-Taj."

"I definitely have to step in."

Facing Chu Xiu's persuasion, the Ancient One shook her head.

She had no intention of leaving.

"Ancient One!?" On the other side, Satannish was shocked when he saw the Ancient One.

He immediately turned to look at Mephisto.

"I will inform..." Satannish's words were cut off.

Mephisto immediately shook his head.

"No!"

"It's not the right time!"

"We must first take that card!"

"Otherwise, it will all be in vain!"

Mephisto conveyed his thoughts to Satannish.

Although this Dark Lord of Hell had been his enemy for a long time.

But now, Mephisto had no choice but to rely on Satannish's help.

Because Satannish was different from the other Hell Lords.

Besides being a demon king of Hell.

He also had another identity!

For a long time...

He had secretly served the Lord of the Dark Dimension!

- Dormammu.

This was a trap specifically set up for the Ancient One.

It was a deadly trap set up by Mephisto and his old rival Satannish!

On Earth, there were three Supreme Holy Places left by the first Sorcerer Supreme, Agamotto.

Dormammu couldn't go to Earth.

But it could respond to Satannish's call and come to any Hell.

Originally, this plan had been flawlessly arranged.

But no matter how you calculate...

You still missed the demon-warding card in Chu Xiu's hand.

"Satanish, Ancient One, leave it to me. I can delay her for a while."

"You, go and snatch that card."

"Will the plan succeed?"

"It depends on you."

Mephisto finished speaking.

Like a towering giant, he raised his arm and crushed towards the Ancient One.

"Come on! Ancient One!"

"Let me see the power of the Sorcerer Supreme!"

Mephisto's arm was enveloped in raging flames.

It came crashing down like Mount Tai.

"Chu Xiu, see how I use magic."

The Ancient One remained calm.

She even had time to say a few words to Chu Xiu.

Until the moment Mephisto's attack was about to land.

She released the Rings of Raggador.

This is the most basic secret magic of Kamar-Taj, and also the starting move for many spells.

Its shape is a circular magic shield.

Both offensive and defensive.

The color is usually orange or yellow-orange.

But the Rings of Raggador in the hands of the Ancient One were crimson, like a round shield blade.

Boom!

Mephisto's fist came down.

With the support of his massive body, like Mount Tai pressing down.

One punch.

Directly covering the Ancient One's figure.

The energy produced, rippling through space, like a wave, stirring up countless fragments of space.

But the next second...

A dazzling red light flashed.

Mephisto's fist was lifted by a force.

The Ancient One had one hand behind her back, holding up the magic shield with just one hand, resisting Mephisto's attack.

Then.

The Ancient One's wrist turned over.

The magic shield became like a fan.

It turned a circle, and the sharp edge slashed upwards.

Buzz!

The red light of the magic shield flashed.

Mephisto's hand was directly severed from his wrist.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

Everything happened too quickly.

So much so that Mephisto himself didn't react in time.

He stood there stunned for a second before realizing the pain.

"Ancient One! I swear I'll kill you!"

Mephisto, with one hand severed, roared.

His other hand shot out a massive energy beam filled with a strong aura of death.

Wherever the beam passed,

The mirrored space shattered one after another.

Like shattered mirrors, they formed countless pieces evenly.

But with a casual wave of her hand,

The Ancient One instantly shifted Mephisto's beam with a basic spatial magic.

"This is the secret magic.

"Our magic from Kamar-Taj."

"Remember, Chu Xiu."

"No matter what the future holds, you come from Kamar-Taj."

"That will always be your home."

After the Ancient One finished speaking,

She turned around and retaliated with a magical lightning bolt towards Mephisto.

The lightning exploded in the air several times, with the final explosion occurring after hitting Mephisto.

Advanced magic!

Bolts of Balthazar!

The chest of the struck Mephisto exploded, leaving behind a huge hole filled with blood.

RE

His enlarged form finally couldn't hold on and quickly shrank,

Returning to his normal form.

"Satanish!"

"Attack quickly!"

After being casually struck twice by the Ancient One,

Mephisto finally realized the gap in power between him and the Ancient One.

He saw the ghost of Satan!

Is this old woman really a Level God Father!?

Mephisto was shaken in his heart, as both of them were heavenly fathers and were considered top heavenly fathers in the eyes of others.

Is the gap between him and the Ancient One really that big?

Her!

Is she really a heavenly father!?

"Satanish!"

"Hurry!"

Feeling the immense threat from the Ancient One.

Mephisto, helpless, could only urge Satanish again.

"I know! I know!"

Satanish impatiently responded.

His massive green body displayed an agility that was completely disproportionate to its size.

In almost an instant, he arrived in front of Chu Xiu.

His palm, like a fan.

Reaching out to grab Chu Xiu.

Boom!

Just as Chu Xiu was about to take action.

A familiar lightning bolt of energy struck Satanish.

Interrupting its attack and sending it flying.

"Pass through me first, Satanish."

The Ancient One took out his left hand from behind his back.

Preparing to face the two of them alone.

"Boss, leave one for me."

Chu Xiu felt somewhat helpless.

He had originally wanted to have a good fight.

Otherwise, he would have sent Mephisto and the others back home with the Exorcism System long ago.

But now the boss is coming at me 1v2...

What's the point of me playing?

"No."

"Both of them are mine."

In response to Chu Xiu's request.

The Ancient One refused for the first time, so decisively.

After saying that, he engaged in battle with Mephisto and Satanish, the two top-tier Heavenly Fathers.

In an instant, a dazzling magical radiance filled the entire Mirror Dimension.

"What's wrong with her today?"

Chu Xiu frowned, sensing the difference in the Ancient One.

But there was no time to think about it in detail.

Boom!

As a destructive energy wave swept through.

Even Chu Xiu had to create distance.

The battles of the Heavenly Fathers were capable of destroying planets, and the battles of top-tier Heavenly Fathers like the Ancient One were even more terrifying.

Those destructive energies were enough to disrupt space and create countless unstable wormholes.

No one knew where passing through these wormholes would teleport them to.

It could be somewhere in the universe.

Or it could be the void...
