Chapter 402 - Chapter 402: Mithril Rank

And now, it was time to use this precious prop.

Although using this extremely precious prop would inevitably lead to a lower rating, if he didn't use it, he might not even be able to save his own life.

Seemingly afraid that Roa didn't know the importance of this prop, Nigun suppressed the fear in his heart and tried his best to maintain his previous calm expression. Nigun tried to intimidate him with words: "Do you know what is sealed inside?"

Without giving Roa time to answer, Nigun said to himself: "Sealed inside is the seventh-tier Summon Angel magic!"

Magic-sealing crystal, as the name suggests, is a crystal that seals magic.

This kind of crystal is not a product of this world, but a prop from "YGGDRASIL". The effect is very simple, which is to pre-seal a kind of magic in it. The user only needs to pay a little magic power to release the magic sealed inside, allowing people who cannot use the magic to obtain the power of this magic.

This crystal can only be used once and cannot be used again after being used once.

Apart from the above shortcomings, it has one advantage, that is, it can seal any tier magic other than super-tier magic, and even tenth-tier magic can be sealed inside.

Of course, the caster himself must be able to cast tenth-tier magic, otherwise he will not be able to seal the magic inside.

The prop in Nigun's hand was left over from hundreds of years ago, so it can be said that it will be used less and less. After all, in this era, no one masters magic above the seventh tier.

Such a prop is more than worthy of being called a treasure.

Seventh-tier Summon Angel. If this magic is released from the magic-sealing crystal, then Nigun will be able to summon an angel with a level equivalent to around level 37 to 42 in "YGGDRASIL".

In this world where even level 29 is considered a hero, an angel of this level is definitely an invincible existence.

However, Roa was indifferent to Nigun's words. Roa's expression was very calm. The young man just said lightly: "You can try it."

Nigun's expression froze. The expression of panic that he expected did not appear. Nigun was already a little flustered.

Indeed, if it was an ordinary person, they should be afraid and fearful of a prop that could summon a seventh-tier angel, but if the opponent was a high-level mage who could cast seventh-tier magic, the effect of the power would be greatly reduced.

After thinking through the causes and consequences, Nigun gritted his teeth. At this moment, he also knew that he could not save this prop. This time, he put aside his lucky thoughts and looked at Roa with a gloomy gaze.

"You forced me to do this."

He reached out and crushed this extremely precious prop. This could be said to be Nigun's last trump card.

The next moment, magic power began to boil, and Nigun's face also suddenly turned pale, losing all the color on his face.

The sacred aura was wanton, and a powerful energy fluctuation came from the void. It was an aura that almost made Nigun tremble.

A seventh-tier angel, what a terrifying existence that was. Even in the angel world, they would be an archangel.

"That's right, that's how it is. Come out quickly, my lord, tear the little trash who dares to offend you to pieces!"

Nigun began to roar hoarsely, venting all the fear in his heart.

However, contrary to his expectations, the young man in front of him was still with that calm attitude. This made Nigun feel a little unacceptable.

He thought of many possibilities. The other party would be afraid, would be fearful, would show a cautious expression, but should never be so calm.

What was this?

Roa didn't speak, but a mocking look appeared on his face. Roa stretched out his finger and aimed at Nigun. Under Nigun's fearful gaze, Roa gently uttered two words.

"Disturb Magic."

Instantly, a powerful energy fluctuation enveloped Nigun, and an invisible domain unfolded.

The effect of Disturb Magic was triggered, and the area in front of him instantly turned into a magic-forbidden domain.

The magic power was disrupted at this moment, and the archangel who was about to appear from the void also paused.

"You, what did you do?"

Nigun looked at Roa with a horrified expression, and a bad thought rose in his heart.

The archangel roared angrily at Roa. Half of its body had not yet appeared, but the supplied magic power had a problem at this moment.

Most of the magic power to summon the archangel did not come from Nigun, but from the sealing crystal. But at this moment, the sealing crystal seemed to have lost contact, and the magic power could not be provided to the archangel at all.

Looking at the archangel who was constantly waving his hands in the air but unable to break free, Nigun's heart was completely dead.

His expression became hideous, and Nigun roared at Roa: "Damn monster, Holy Light! Die!"

Holy Light, a third-tier magic, is a sacred attribute magic that can project strong light to damage evil enemies. This magic is specifically used to deal with creatures such as the undead, but at this moment Nigun even tried to use it to deal with Roa.

But it was useless. At this moment, this space was included in the magic-forbidden domain by Roa. Whether it was people or props, there had been varying degrees of disruption. How could Nigun cast magic?

Of course, his proficiency in Disturb Magic was not very high. If the opponent was a mage like Ainz, all he could do was cause a momentary disruption in the other party's magic power.

But the guy in front of him was not Ainz. For a mere fourth-tier mage, Roa's Disturb Magic was like a quagmire, and he couldn't break free at all.

He didn't know what happened, but at this moment, he was like a traveler about to drown. He stretched out his two pale fingers and shouted at Roa: "Magic Arrow! Electric Ball! Lightning Strike!"

But there was nothing. Nigun just pitifully raised his hands and roared at Roa like a madman.

The archangel was already beginning to gradually disappear. The remaining half of his body was slowly fading at a strange speed.

Roa slowly descended from the air and landed in front of Nigun. He looked at the middle-aged man who was kneeling on the ground, looking desperate.

"What should I do? Do you have any trump cards now?"

The young man stood in front of him, looking down at him with condescending eyes. This feeling made Nigun feel very uncomfortable. He was the captain of the Sunlight Scripture, and he had only ever looked down on others before. Where had he ever received such treatment?

But the current situation was pressing. Nigun bit his teeth. He hugged Roa's leg with both hands and began to beg: "Spare... spare me..."

Roa's original smiling expression quickly disappeared.

Looking at Nigun, who was crawling on the ground, Roa felt a little bored.

"I thought you would say something interesting, but I didn't expect you to be a boring person too."

Roa put his hand on Nigun's head. At this moment, Nigun's expression froze. He opened his mouth, wanting to say some words of begging for mercy.

But the next moment, Nigun's crown chakra was directly shattered by Roa.

Nigun's head tilted, and his whole body fell to the ground, never to get up again.

Carne Village Plain. This originally empty and silent grassland was now a mess.

The once lush green grass was now full of potholes, with flying grass and trees everywhere. Broken stones, dirt, and potholes buried the charred corpses.

This battle was like a small fight for Roa. There was no fun in fighting at all.

However, if he looked at this world too simply because of this, he would suffer a big loss.

Roa's mind subconsciously thought of those dragon races lurking in the corners of this world, and a different thought arose in his heart.

Ainz and his group, and those dragon races who mastered origin magic, were really something Roa was looking forward to.

Let's raise the adventurer rank first.

Roa didn't stay any longer. His figure flickered, turning into a brilliant blue light, and flew directly into the sky, flying towards the distance.

…Three days later…

E-Rantel. In the city center of this fortress city, a well-known big event occurred.

"Have you heard? Recently, a mithril-rank adventurer seems to have appeared here."

"I heard that he directly rose from the lowest-rank adventurer to mithril-rank in one breath. This is simply unheard of."

"It is said that he also accepted the request of the kingdom's warrior-captain, Gazef Stronoff, thwarted the enemy country's conspiracy outside, and saved the warrior-captain's life. That's why he was able to rise to mithril-rank in one fell swoop."

"What? He actually accepted the request of the warrior-captain called [The Strongest Warrior]? And saved his life?"

"You don't know. Three days ago, the kingdom's warrior-captain came to the adventurer's guild with a large army, and it caused such a sensation at that time!"

"A figure in the hero domain. Even the highest-ranked adamantite-rank adventurers have few that can be compared with him, right?"

"No wonder. Presumably that mission must have been quite dangerous?"

"It is said that the opponent was the Sunlight Scripture in the Six Scriptures."

The topic ended abruptly here. The Sunlight Scripture in the Six Scriptures was a taboo-like existence in the folk. Everyone talked about it with fear, for fear of avoiding it.

The Sunlight Scripture in the Six Scriptures has a very bad reputation here. After all, doing such dirty things, no one is willing to say a few more words.

But even so, conversations like this are now being staged in the streets and alleys of this country.

Even ordinary residents have heard a little about it, especially those adventurers in the guild, who know more details and can even talk eloquently about the scenes that happened that day.

As for others asking him why he knows so clearly, these adventurers patted their chests, with a confident look on their faces that they were there at the time. In fact, these adventurers were purely listening to it, and then slightly processing it, and it became this look.

The plot became more and more outrageous, but the core revolved around these two things.

Regarding Roa rising to mithril-rank in one breath, adventurers were envious, admired, and jealous.

The level of adventurers is linked to many aspects.

Even with enough strength, you need enough achievements, otherwise you can't increase the level of adventurers.

Achievements refer to the number of completed requests and the contribution of participating in major events.

These can be hunting monsters, accepting requests from important figures, or making outstanding contributions to the country. After these events are over, they will add a stroke to the adventurer's resume.

Although Roa later borrowed a few tasks when he was bored, his main achievement was actually only one, saving Warrior-Captain Gazef.

In other words, Roa only relied on this one request to directly rise to the mithril-level adventurer. How could this not make those adventurers envious and jealous?

It should be known that they have experienced countless near-death experiences, suffered countless injuries, and taken countless risks before they have finally accumulated these achievements, allowing them to increase the level of adventurers.

And the guy in front of them only relied on one task to rise to a stage that they can only hope to reach in their lifetime. How could this not make them feel uncomfortable.

Even though the other party was the one who rescued the Warrior Captain, they still felt somewhat unconvinced.

You should know that in the fortress city of E-Rantel, the highest-ranked adventurers are Mithril-ranked.

Adventurers of Orichalcum and Adamantite ranks are rare and operate over a wide area, so they generally don't stay in one city.

In this country where Orichalcum and Adamantite ranks are practically nonexistent, Roa's actions can only be described as an overnight success.

Naturally, being too conspicuous has attracted the envy of many.

Among them, many adventurers came to cause trouble for Roa, using various pretexts to challenge him or simply provoke him arbitrarily, only to be subdued after being beaten up by Roa.

As usual, two young adventurers were sitting in the Adventurers Guild, discussing current hot topics.

"Oh, by the way, what was that Mithril-ranked adventurer's name again?"

"I think it was something like Roa Greyrat?"

As soon as the words fell, a figure in black armor appeared beside them.

"What did you say that person's name was? Roa Greyrat?"

A deep voice suddenly rang out, and the two looked over in surprise, only to see a burly warrior clad in pitch-black full body armor, completely covering his head, hands, and feet, making it impossible to discern his appearance.

Not only that, but the warrior also had a very flamboyant red cloak hanging behind his full body armor, and two exaggerated greatswords could be seen beneath the cloak, intimidating the two adventurers at a glance.

This warrior was naturally Ainz Ooal Gown, formerly known as Momonga.

Of course, Ainz wasn't alone on this trip. Behind him was a girl who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. She had a ponytail, thick black hair, and brown eyes. Her features were delicate, but her attitude was very cold, giving people a sense of aloofness.
