"First, 'I' will definitely focus most of my attention on myself."
Frieren seriously drew a small figure on the ground with special stones.
This was the Frieren clone.
And opposite the small figure, another identical small figure was drawn at the same time.
On the side of this newly drawn small figure, two circles were drawn.
These represented Fern and Edel.
"At this time, you can take the opportunity to hide."
"Look for 'my' weaknesses."
"The moment I engage 'me' in combat!"
"This is when the Magic detection will be interrupted!"
"You must seize this opportunity to find a new place to hide yourselves..." Frieren drew a wavy line between the two small figures.
"The battle will definitely be very intense!"
"Because 'I' am very aware of how terrifying I am!"
"Once you find a new place to hide, you just need to wait for the next opportunity to attack that 'me'."
"Our plan will be successful."
She said a lot of things, one after another.
Frieren looked at the white battle sketch on the ground with a satisfied expression.
"As expected of Mistress Frieren!"
Fern nodded in agreement, praising with a smile on her face.
Only Edel's eyes were wide.
Looking as if she was saying, "Are you serious?"
"What's wrong?"
"Is there a problem?"
Frieren noticed Edel's expression.
She immediately tilted her head in confusion.
Isn't this plan perfect?
"No..." Edel hesitated, but for her own safety.
She decided to suggest something again.
After all, relying on this rough plan to decide her own life and death...
Edel felt it was a bit too rough...
"I think we might need to improve this plan."
Edel poked with her little finger.
Mature for her age, this was the first time in so many years she had shown such a girlish demeanor.
"Fern, what do you think?"
Frieren looked at Fern.
Naturally, it was because she felt there was absolutely no problem.
"Hmm..."
Fern pondered for a moment. She clapped her hands and said.
"I do understand Miss Edel's feelings."
"After all, the opponent is your clone, Mistress Frieren."
Seeing Fern say this.
Edel was practically moved.
Exactly!
You don't even look at who the opponent is!
Such a rough plan is perhaps too... disrespectful to yourself...
Edel was on the verge of tears.
She eagerly awaited Fern's next words.
"However..."
"I also think the plan is perfect."
Fern smiled awkwardly.
At this point, Edel's hanging heart finally died...
She was a non-combatant!
Do you understand what a non-combatant is!
"If you think there are any other problems, Edel..."
"You can add to it."
"No problem."
Frieren smiled at Fern with satisfaction.
As expected of her good Fern mother.
Even her thoughts were surprisingly consistent with her own.
"Let's add two points."
Edel finally understood.
She couldn't rely on these two at all.
Starting the fight earlier and escaping earlier was what she should be considering!
"Frieren..." Edel sighed before asking Frieren.
"If you see an unknown Mage, like me, for example."
"Would you make eye contact with me first or attack directly?"
The answer to this question is very important!
"Make eye contact."
Frieren didn't hesitate at all.
Information is always the most crucial aspect of a Mage's battle!
Attacking rashly without information is undoubtedly extremely foolish!
"Make eye contact, huh."
Edel's lips curved up.
"Then it seems stable."
"Hmm?"
It's stable just like that?
Fern blinked a few times.
Why does it feel like this master of mental Magic, seems...?
Her mind might indeed have some... issues?
"Second point."
"Can you be immune to my mental control Magic?"
Edel suddenly met Frieren's gaze.
Her lips moved slightly, as if issuing an order!
"Sit."
"Crash!"
Frieren obediently sat down.
However, the second after she sat down, Frieren casually dusted herself off again.
And stood up.
"Looks like you can't."
Frieren frowned, a little unhappy about being sneak attacked without a sound.
Although it was for the sake of the bigger picture.
"So, this second is your chance."
Edel's lips curved up.
Unlike Frieren's displeasure.
She was now flamboyant and proud.
"So, allow me to correct my entrance plan now..."
In the last tomb chamber, the stone door was slowly pushed open.
The three of them formed a triangle.
Edel took the lead and walked in.
Fern hid behind a stone pillar the moment she entered.
She cautiously observed the battle situation.
[New Mage?]
As expected!
The Frieren clone concentrated, seriously observing Edel.
In an instant!
The two of them were already looking directly at each other!
Indeed!
The stronger the Mage, the more seriously they observe their opponent before the battle begins!
Edel trembled with excitement!
This is the moment!
Mental control Magic - Activate!
"Kneel!"
With an excited tremor in her voice, Edel issued the command to the Frieren clone!
"Boom!"
It happened in an instant!
A normal attack Magic fiercely pierced Edel's shoulder!
It was originally aimed at her chest!
But Frieren noticed something was wrong and saved her in the nick of time!
Completely...
Useless...
She was handed over to Fern, who was hiding behind the stone pillar, by Frieren.
Looking at the figures of the two Frierens facing off.
Edel endured the pain in her shoulder.
She thought to herself: It seems I can only implement Plan B!
"Escape golem, activate!"
"Play dead!"
The sound of a glass bottle shattering rang out!
The escape golem, originally sealed inside the bottle, instantly appeared beside Edel.
After gently taking Edel from Fern's hands, it revealed its strong muscles!
It fiercely crashed into the wall behind the few of them!
"Rumble!"
A huge sound rang out!
It was the escape golem crashing fiercely into the wall with Edel in its arms!
It didn't go through!
There was a Magic barrier set up here by the Frieren clone!
But it doesn't matter!
Looking at the dying Edel in its arms from the impact, the escape Magic's eyes were firm!
Healing Magic activate!
As a soft green light shone on Edel!
The escape golem's steps didn't stop!
This time it honestly opened the stone door and rushed out towards the Royal Tomb!
"This is... amusing..."
Yulian's mouth twitched.
Then he waved his hand.
The Frieren clone that was confronting Frieren thus dissipated into the air.
The door to the treasury also opened at this moment.
After Yulian slightly tidied his disordered robe.
He slowly walked out and opened his arms to Frieren.
"Long time no see, Frieren."
"Mr. Yulian!"
Fern stared dumbfounded at Yulian walking out from inside the treasury door.
This... Holy cow!
Cheating to this extent!
"Yes, and you too, Fern, long time no see."
Yulian smiled slightly.
Counting the time, the second round of the First-Class Mage test should be over by now.
All the avatars had been converted into energy by Yulian and recycled into the water mirror demon's main body for storage.
And those who had previously decided to intercept the avatars, upon discovering that the avatars they were fighting had disappeared.
They would surely rush here soon.
"I can only say..." "As expected of the person chosen by Lady Serie?"
Sense walked out from behind the stone door.
Looking at this scene, the expression on her face was slightly complicated.
"I hope you can keep my Demon identity a secret, Sense?"
Yulian winked at Sense and said.
"Frieren and Fern, who eliminated the water mirror demon, are the rightful conquerors of the Ruins of the King's Tomb."
"This is the script I've prepared for you."
