Hades released the effect of the Time Stop magic. All the preludes so far had been completed, and the magic delayed magic spells couldn't be delayed any longer.
It was about time to send Momonga on his way. After the flow of time returned to normal, Hades' entire body was instantly wrapped in a substance like black rock, and even his head was completely covered. The black substance reflected light, showing a metallic luster.
For a time, it was impossible to tell with the naked eye whether it was rock or metal. And this black, metal-like rock-like thing wasn't satisfied with just wrapping Hades. Instead, it began to evolve its form.
A row of sharp barbs protruded from his forearm, and the back and chest formed an armor shape like muscle lines. The head armor became streamlined head armor.
Although it covered Hades' entire body, it didn't make people feel a trace of discomfort. On the contrary, it was unusually capable.
This was one of the magic spells activated by magic delay - "Armor."
This magic was an exclusive magic for the Earth element specialization of Elemental Mages. Only by upgrading the earth element specialization to the high-level class Shaper could one learn this magic.
Although it wasn't a hidden class skill, it was just an exclusive skill of a high-level class, and it could only be used on oneself, not on others.
But it was this restrictive magic that Hades ultimately chose after combining dozens of class combinations.
There was naturally a reason for him to make such a choice.
First of all, there was the effect of "Armor." This magic could provide the caster with a layer of armor, providing them with warrior attack stats of about level 65 and defense stats of level 75.
And this value could be stacked with the caster's own values. Unlike the power armor used by novices, power armor would cover the user's own values. It was completely a burden for level 100 players to wear power armor.
But this magic was different. It could instantly turn a magic caster into a warrior of about level 70, and the upper limit depended on their own values.
According to the values of ordinary magic caster players, the final value after stacking would be about level 85.
But compared to the magic "Perfect Warrior," it couldn't allow magic casters to equip warrior weapons.
However, it could maintain the state without continuously consuming MP, and it could still use some magic. Compared to the state of Perfect Warrior, where magic couldn't be used, it was much better.
But the operator couldn't plan a perfect magic to destroy the game balance.
They couldn't use warrior weapons, and they couldn't use warrior skills. This meant that they were just a blank warrior with only stats.
Being unable to use some magic meant that the combat ability of the magic caster was reduced.
So the role of this magic was limited to saving lives, using it to resist the enemy's fatal attacks.
And the restriction that it couldn't be used on others also made this magic lose the possibility of powerful support.
But this setting was like seeing a new continent for Hades, who possessed the "Seed of the World Tree."
To be able to explore the potential of this World Item, he constantly upgraded and downgraded, switching various class combinations, and finally discovered the wonderful use of this magic.
With the 100-level warrior attributes, plus the stacking of "Armor," he could almost reach 170-level warrior attributes. And with the attributes given by the equipment, he could probably approach 190-level.
The only shortcoming was that the official competition restricted the use of World Items. Otherwise, Hades believed that it wouldn't be difficult for him to win the world championship in this profession.
His body was already covered by "Armor," and Hades had also activated the "Seed of the World Tree" long ago, transforming into a human warrior.
Before he had time to carefully feel this unparalleled power, Hades kicked out and directly kicked Albedo in the lower back.
If you asked how terrible the power of a warrior close to level 190 was, Albedo couldn't answer.
She was admiring Ainz-sama's fighting posture with worshipful eyes when she suddenly felt that there seemed to be movement behind her.
As a qualified defense-type warrior, her perception was extremely sensitive. Through the flow of the wind, she sensed that there was an abnormality behind her. But just as she was about to turn around, an irresistible force came from her waist.
That force pushed her forward a step. As a defense-type warrior, being shaken was a great humiliation.
Furious, she was about to turn around and resist when she suddenly found that she was in a strange place.
"Ainz-sama! Ainz-sama!"
Albedo called out to Momonga in horror, but the surrounding forest was quiet without a sound. She tried to contact Momonga using "Message," but there was no response.
"Damn it! Where is this! Ainz-sama!"
Albedo, wielding a giant axe, was like a headless fly. She wasn't a magic caster. Although her race provided some magic skills, she didn't have teleportation magic.
The sudden change made her uneasy. She suddenly opened her black wings and flew into the sky. She looked around and saw a vast forest.
"Damn it! Damn it! Where exactly is this! Ainz-sama, where are you!"
Albedo's eyes were red, and the aura released from her body made the originally quiet forest instantly become noisy.
Just as she was about to rush in one direction regardless of everything, a voice suddenly came from behind her. Albedo, who was in a rage, didn't even think about it and swung the long axe in her hand.
"Ah! It's me~ Albedo-sama!"
Mare's terrified and high-pitched voice resounded in this area. The long axe in Albedo's hand stopped one centimeter above Mare's head. If it went any further, Mare would probably be decapitated.
"Oh, it's you, and Aura." Albedo retracted the long axe and looked coldly at Mare and Aura, who were floating in the air. Her voice was icy. "Do you want to betray Ainz-sama? Mare!"
"Eh?" Mare's heart tightened, and his legs involuntarily clamped together. He trembled and said, "I...I...I never thought about that. How could I betray Ainz-sama?"
"If that's the case," Albedo narrowed her eyes, revealing a terrifying killing intent. "Why don't you open a teleportation gate and return to Ainz-sama's side!"
Among the three people present, only Mare was a full magic caster class. Only he could use teleportation magic.
Albedo believed that Mare didn't have the guts to leave his post without permission. Since they had appeared here, they should have realized the problem.
What Mare had to do wasn't to chat with her, but to return to Ainz-sama's side.
"No...no...it's not like that..." Tears were about to come out of Mare's eyes. "I...I've already tried, but the teleportation magic doesn't work. I can't even contact Ainz-sama."
"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
