Lis watched the four people in front of him. Although he felt somewhat panicked the instant he sensed their legendary presence, he quickly got his emotions under control and calmed down.
Although the extremely dangerous aura kept assaulting his nerves, Lis forced himself to carefully size up the few people in front of him.
The situation had become clear by now. As the person in charge of the All Beast Church in Bright City, Duke House had secretly made some plan that now involved two legendary strongmen.
Although he did not know Duke House's plan, these several assistants were probably staying somewhere outside Bright City to avoid being discovered by "Judgment Flame" rather than directly entering the city.
After receiving a message from Duke House, these people would have headed straight for Bright City.
And then, along the way, they happened to run into the two people who had been forcibly teleported out of Bright City.
Lis grimaced, finding it somewhat hard to accept.
Could my 7 points of Luck Value be fake?
After a self-deprecating thought, Lis focused and observed the situation in front of him.
The legendary strongman standing next to Duke House looked like an extremely robust male, with cold and cruel lights flickering in his eyes, his arms crossed in front of his broad, muscular chest that was bare and well-defined, as if containing destructive infinite strength.
The legendary Druid of the All Beast Church, [Thirsty Blood Beast] Kvedo Alvwin!
And the legendary strongman standing beside him, referred to by the duke as Lady Garcia, was concealed in a long black robe, with only the right hand exposed outside the robe, displaying a strange paleness and long green nails that flickered with corrupt and fallen light, her stature slight but the aura she exuded no less powerful than that of Alvwin beside her.
Her name is Garcia, still looking like that...
The legendary Plague Mage of the Plague Sect, [mourning bird] Gladys Garcia!
Lis's face grew ugly. If it really was her, then they were truly in trouble.
Suddenly, Lis felt his luck might not be so bad after all.
If this person were to appear within Bright City, the entire Royal Capital might well be lost, and the fearsome Black Death plague would kill off most ordinary people and Extraordinary Professionals. Even Gold-level professionals might not be able to resist for long.
In the midst of [mourning bird]'s wailing, the death knell that summons Death would ring!
This was also why the Plague Sect was so notoriously infamous; the death and terror they brought left countless people chilled to the bone, and this invisible, intangible threat was the most frightening.
It was uncertain whether his teacher had a good way of dealing with such an enemy.
It was unexpected that the Plague Sect, where the [mourning bird] belonged, would join forces with the All Beast Church and appear outside Bright City.
Although he had disrupted their plan, the current situation was quite dangerous for Lis.

As Lis observed the others, they were also casting their gazes this way.
Alvwin looked at Lis with a trace of disdainful smile at the corner of his mouth.
Was this the Lis Kain who killed his disciple? Just so-so looking?
With the aura of having just breaching the Gold Rank, Patrick actually died at his hands. It seems that over the years, he's grown complacent.
Alvwin said nothing, standing silently as though waiting for something.
Although the All Beast Church's target this time was Lis, and they were creating chaos in Bright City, that wasn't his purpose. He couldn't bother to take action against Lis himself.
Lis was all alert, but he found it somewhat strange that the others had not attacked directly.
What were they waiting for?
Just then, he heard Alvwin across from him lower his arms and rub his wrists, saying:
"Stephens, now that everyone's here, what are we waiting for?"
"Do you really want your disciple to start a fight with me?"
As the words were spoken, the figure of Stephens slowly emerged before Lis, looking at the two men before him with interest.
"Alvwin of the All Beast Church?"
"Hmm, you're Garcia of the Plague Sect?"
"Seeing the two of you , seems you've come looking for me?"
Lis noticed the arrival of his teacher and quietly let out a sigh of relief.
Honestly, he felt confident in dealing with Duke House, but those two legendary strongmen were not someone he could contend with at the moment.
As Stephens appeared, Alvwin and Garcia opposite became tensed, although the two of them were there precisely to confront Stephens. But only upon seeing Stephens did they realize that the legend standing at the pinnacle of the world's strength had no hint of falsehood.
At that moment, Stephens was dressed in a simple black Mage Robe, seemingly as casual as if he were wandering in his own backyard, taking an interested look at the two before him.
The [mourning bird] Garcia, unlike a disgruntled Alvwin, spoke with a respectful tone in her sweet, bird-like voice and even bowed slightly:
"I have long heard of your power. My abrupt appearance today, please forgive me."
Though she spoke graciously, Garcia's intent was quite clear. She had come today to confront Stephens.
Stephens shook his head, saying dismissively:
"You coming to seek death on your own accord isn't something I can comment on."
"Still so young and willing to risk everything for the Path to Divinity."
Before Lis could react, a violent spatial fluctuation enveloped the area, and fierce winds blew rampantly in all directions.
