Simulation: Starting from Under One Person

"Great!" Fang Rui said. Although he had the power to easily create all kinds of items, the things he created were different from those with historical significance.

This feeling is like receiving a gift from a strong man versus receiving a gift from a beautiful girl—they are completely different experiences.

Lost in thought, Fang Rui stuffed gold coins, gems, and other items into his storage space. He didn't put them all in; he left a pile of gold coins and gems, but he didn't leave any magical artifacts behind, nor did he touch the scroll containing the sleeping wind spirit.

"The mission was completed a bit too quickly, let's go find some fun!"

The villains in the current world are demons, while the villains at this stage are the elves who have not yet fully reincarnated.

So, what role should I play?

To avoid causing trouble for his main body, the clone prepared to put on a disguise. For someone who possessed a wide range of magic, putting on a disguise was an easy task.

"Hmm, let's pretend to be a wandering magic user! And I'll choose lightning magic for the spells I use!"

Knowing that Lark was in the exploration team, Fang Rui decided to demonstrate to him how to use lightning.

"first……"

The grimoire unfolds, and magic is cast...

"The Thunder Emperor's Armor".

Armor made of lightning appeared on Fang Rui's body. The close-fitting light armor made Fang Rui look very majestic.

blah-

The sound of lightning traveling through the air was somewhat jarring. Fang Rui instantly vanished from his original spot, transforming into a blue streak of light that moved rapidly through the passage.

In less than a minute, Fang Rui had already appeared in front of Lak.

"Oh dear~" The seemingly lazy middle-aged man looked at Fang Rui, who had suddenly barged into the battlefield, and said in a slightly serious tone, "This is an unexpected situation."

"When I encountered a magic user of the same type, I thought he would be a relatively strong one."

"Now it seems I was overthinking things, you..."

The Mirror clone, its face disguised, looked down at Lak, its tone slightly cold, "Very weak!"

Lak has an obsessive attachment to words like "weak" and "failure," and hates and fears losing...

"I...am very strong!!!"

Lak, who had been weakened by the smoke magic, suddenly became like a machine that had been injected with energy, regaining his vitality. Lightning surrounded him, giving him a powerful and imposing presence.

Seeing this, the mirror clone raised his right hand, lightly flicked his fingers, and said with a tone full of mockery, "Come on! Let me see your strength!"

"Ha~" Observing the atmosphere between the two, Rotas, who was hiding in the smoke, stroked his beard and said in a strange tone, "Uncle... am I being ignored?"

"That's good, should we take this opportunity to escape?"

Upon closer reflection, both individuals in front of him possessed detection abilities; if he were to flee at this moment, it would alert them.

If the two of them decide to "eliminate any unexpected factors affecting the battle first," then...

"This is bad!" Looking at the soldiers he was protecting, Rotas felt he should be more cautious and wait and see.

"Thunderous Hōgyoku!"

While the battle-hardened Lotas was lost in thought, Lak had already launched his attack.

Using ranged area-of-effect attacks to probe the enemy at the start is a very common tactic.

Instead of taking the hit head-on, Fang Rui moved at high speed to Lak's side and kicked him away.

"The reaction speed is a bit slow!"

"As a user of lightning magic, you are not qualified!"

Listening to Fang Rui's sarcasm, Rotas thought to himself: No, no, no, you're being way too ridiculous!

'I've seen so many users of lightning magic, but none as outrageous as you.'

As a titled mage, and the fact that he was remembered by Julius, the Magic Emperor of the Clover Kingdom, is enough to prove that his strength is not bad.

Despite appearing somewhat disheveled by Lak, the truth is that Lak had no intention of killing him and was actually trying to use smoke magic to render Lak unable to resist.

If the other party had intended to kill from the start, Lak would probably have been dealt with in a short time...

As for Lak, who was being mocked, he launched an attack with even greater speed.

"It's commendable that you seem frantic but haven't lost your composure, but your attack patterns..."

Fang Rui dodged Lark's attack, returned to Lark's side, and kicked him away. "Too straightforward, easy to see through."

"Or rather, you can learn from me how to quickly avoid having your attack patterns detected..."

"Oh, I forgot! Your speed... is very slow!"

With another sarcastic remark, Fang Rui gave Lak no time to react, appearing beside him repeatedly and kicking him into the air for brief moments.

Fang Rui didn't use much force, so he wouldn't inflict much damage on Lak, but the lightning accompanying each attack would paralyze Lak.

Therefore, Lak was unable to resist...

It's interesting that a user of lightning magic was paralyzed by lightning!

Chapter 599 In Practice

Watching the battle between Fang Rui and Lak, Rotas seemed to be deep in thought.

Rather than enemies, they are more like seniors teaching juniors!

Is this person someone who knows them?!

That's terrible! If the other side adds someone with such formidable strength, his plan to make some money is very likely to fail.

'What should we do?'

Lotas thought to himself, his expression slightly serious as he pondered the matter.

A moment later, Fang Rui knocked Lak to the ground again, commenting, "How boring, you're so weak!"

After saying that, Fang Rui turned to look at Rotas and ordered, "Bring your men and come with me."

“No killing intent…” After thinking for a moment and assessing the difference in strength between the two sides, Rotas did not resist but complied, leading a group of people to follow Fang Rui.

Lak lay on the ground, paralyzed and unable to move.

Riding in the smoke-filled vehicle, Fang Rui and the others headed towards the treasure vault. During the quiet journey, he suddenly broke the silence, saying, "You can take half of the treasures in the vault, but whether you can get more depends on whether you can snatch them from the magic knights of the Clover Kingdom."

"You want us to help train them?" Rotas easily saw through Fang Rui's intentions. "You really have a big heart to ask enemy magic knights to help train them..."

At the same time, he had already guessed Fang Rui's identity, and there was no doubt that he was someone related to the Magic Knights.

"To be honest, I'm not worried about their safety."

Lak and Yuno are strong enough that even if they can't defeat the enemy, they can still escape with them.

Even without a chance to escape, Asta can still overcome the predicament; even the weakest demon's power is still formidable...

Not to mention, demons who possess anti-magic powers are the bane of all magic.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about the danger to Asta and the others. If Asta's life is threatened, the demon hidden in the grimoire will take action.

After all, he already had some guesses about Astar's identity, and if you asked why...

It's probably because of his appearance!

In terms of personality, they are also somewhat similar.

"Don't worry..." Rotas covered his head. If you're not worried, then I should be!

It seems that the others exploring the Demon Palace are also quite powerful.

The Clover Kingdom has sent so many powerful magic knights. Does it have some kind of intelligence about the Demon Palace?

In other words, are there special items in the Demon Palace?

Lotas thought about it for a moment and then stopped dwelling on it, after all, he had no chance of stealing anything...

"I can grant your request, but I have one condition."

Rotas was a pragmatic man. "I would like to ask you to guarantee the safety of my men and myself."

"As a sparring partner, this request is reasonable, right?"

“Okay, I will go with you.” Fang Rui did not refuse Rotas’s request.

From the information he had gathered, Rotas had a good personality, and keeping him around would be useful.

“…I hope you can keep your promise.” Rotas said this, but Fang Rui’s promise had no binding force whatsoever.

After a moment of silence, Fang Rui turned his gaze to Lotas, "...Of course I will keep my promise, your first mission has begun~"

After staring into Fang Rui's eyes for a while, Rotas couldn't sense any emotion in him and therefore couldn't confirm what Fang Rui was thinking.

'I absolutely can't believe it!'

'Your expression screams 'You want to kill me!'

Rotas thought to himself, but didn't say it aloud.

On the other side, Fang Rui, Touma Kamijou, and the others were moving slowly forward. They didn't encounter many people along the way, but they frequently ran into traps. Perhaps Touma Kamijou's bad luck was continuing in this other world.

After all, Imagine Breaker still works in this other world, but its power has been weakened...

Whether Touma Kamijou's bad luck has lessened is unknown.

"So tired!"

After climbing up and down repeatedly, Touma Kamijou felt extremely tired. Given his physical abilities, it would take at least a full-speed sprint of several kilometers to make him feel fatigued.

The reason he knew so much was thanks to the delinquent teenager who frequently tested his physical abilities...

"I am indeed a bit tired," Fang Rui agreed, then asked, "Do you want to take transportation?"

"Yes!" Touma Kamijou answered without hesitation.

"Okay, the first training method is no longer effective, it's time to move on to the second training method."

The first training exercise was to develop Touma Kamijou's intuition and his ability to dodge, since there were many traps in the Demon Palace, and Touma Kamijou's bad luck always led him to step into them.

The second training exercise is practical combat. Now everyone in the Demon Palace is converging on the treasure vault, so there will be many opportunities for practical combat.

"I always feel that you... have ill intentions."
