After Nimophila appeared, she looked at Liens, then at the tragic state of the ground, and finally sighed, saying to the few surviving students: "You should leave here first. The situation here will be handled by me and the Dean."

"Teacher Nimophila…"

Several students called out to Nimophila.

Then they looked at Liens again, and seeing that Liens didn't care about them, they forced their somewhat weak legs to move and quickly ran away from the bloody scene.

"Do you know what your actions represent, young Knight?"

"Publicly violating a prohibition cannot be brushed aside just because you're an Extraordinary One."

Nimophila still had a smile on her face, but her tone had completely turned cold.

"Have they all arrived…?"

Liens ignored Nimophila's words, looked up to see that the Dean had stopped in the air above this place, and said softly.

"How should we handle this?"

The Dean's voice came from the air.

Although he didn't specify, everyone present knew who the question was directed at.

"First, capture him and send him to the Holy Light Church Church for trial; if he cannot be captured alive, kill him on the spot."

Nimophila responded calmly.

"Will you go, or will I, or shall we go together?"

The Dean asked again.

"Together… Facing a Knight who has mastered 'Element Blessing,' I alone don't have much confidence in taking him down."

Nimophila continued her response.

"Are you done discussing? If you're done, then I'll begin."

Liens stood silently to the side, waiting for Nimophila and their conversation to finish, and then he spoke.

After speaking, Liens directly boosted his speed, turned, and ran towards the outside of the town.

Nimophila and the Dean, who had thought Liens was about to make a move, were momentarily stunned.

They hadn't expected Liens's so-called "beginning" to be an escape!

The main reason was that the fighting spirit in Liens's eyes was too misleading.

With such sharp eyes, Nimophila even thought Liens would draw his sword and attack in the next second.

Who would have thought that Liens would just run away, without even a probing process?

"Sigh… Chase him!"

Nimophila showed a helpless expression, but in an instant, she became serious and called out to the Dean.

Then she pursued him at a speed not much inferior to Liens's.

Upon hearing this, the Dean immediately cast a buffing spell on Nimophila, and then, relying on "Floating Art," pursued Liens from the air.

However, although the Dean could fly, his flying speed wasn't very fast.

So, very quickly, he was left so far behind by Liens and Nimophila that he couldn't even see their shadows.

Furthermore, Liens and Nimophila had already rushed out of the town, and his main task was to maintain the operation of the ritual.

Therefore, after a moment of thought… the Dean decided to stay in the town to avoid falling for a diversion and causing the ritual to be destroyed.

At this moment, Liens was heading towards the Monster Forest.

And Nimophila, with the added benefit of the buffing spell, was slowly closing the distance with him.

It seemed that with just a little more time, she could stop Liens.

But Liens's next action directly interrupted her thoughts.

Liens was seen jumping directly into mid-air, then repeatedly using leverage in the air.

Like pulling a green onion from dry ground, he rapidly ascended to a height she couldn't reach.

"You!" Cоntеnt first rеlеаsеd оn

Seeing this, Nimophila was furious.

Just a little, just that little bit… she could have punched that person.

But she hadn't expected this person to be able to fly.

And seeing Liens still lingering in the air, Nimophila thought he was making fun of her.

So, she directly activated a divine spell and attacked Liens, who was suspended in the air.

Liens waited in the air for a while, but instead of Nimophila's flying method, he was met with a swarm of water arrows.

Liens swung his sword, raising a "Wind Wall" to block the incoming water arrows. After confirming that Nimophila was just in a fit of impotent rage, he immediately flew deeper into the Monster Forest, stepping on air.

Due to the issue of condensing aerial stairs, Liens's speed in the air was not fast, perhaps even slower than the Dean's "Floating Art."

But, who told the Dean that he had been left far behind by the two of them, and Nimophila, on the other hand, couldn't fly?

Coupled with the forest's terrain and various tall trees that remained evergreen even in the frost season, obscuring vision.

Liens quickly disappeared from Nimophila's sight.

Nimophila continued her pursuit in the forest for some time.

Finally, unable to find any trace of Liens, she could only return to the town the way she came.

For her, this pursuit operation ultimately ended in failure.

As for Liens…

He walked in the air for a while, and after shaking off Nimophila, he descended from the air.

Firstly, flying in this manner consumed too much physical strength and elemental energy within his body.

Secondly, it was dangerous.

The flying monsters in the Monster Forest were fierce.

Relying on his half-baked flying method, in front of those monsters… he would essentially be a fat pigeon delivered to an eagle's mouth—fat meat delivered to their doorstep.

After landing, Liens found a seemingly more secluded corner in the forest and hid.

This was to confirm whether Nimophila and her group had any special tracking methods.

He had already thoroughly checked his body and surface.

Confirming that there were no special elemental structures or abnormal elements on him.

After some time, even after the instance time had ended, Liens still didn't wait for Nimophila.

This also confirmed that he had successfully escaped.

…

White space.

"Very good, the test was very successful."

"Currently, it seems that as long as I shake off that Magic Master Dean, then ground-dwelling creatures like Nimophila, who can't fly, can only be in a fit of impotent rage."

"Next is the matter of applying."

Liens said with a happy smile.

Subsequently, he opened another instance. In this instance, he didn't do anything unusual.

He didn't kill anyone, didn't attack the Dean, and didn't even say anything strange.

He just calmly completed the entire interview process.

It wasn't until the Dean arranged a dormitory for him and introduced him to the other teachers, including Nimophila, that Liens left the instance.

The entire process was calm and uneventful.

It seemed that as long as Liens didn't actively cause trouble, no one would be in danger, and the town could always remain peaceful and quiet.

Liens opened his eyes and got out of bed.

He looked out the window; it was almost sunset.

The few rounds of tests he did in the instance took too long, dragging from noon to afternoon, almost evening.

"I wonder if they will still receive interviewees at this time?"

Liens thought to himself.

Then he packed his belongings and headed towards the Knight Academy.

He wasn't a normal interviewee, but rather an "exempted applicant" who entered through the back door.

No matter what time he went, the Dean would ensure his successful application.

As long as he didn't speak out of turn, then Liens, in the Dean's eyes, would be a "special envoy" sent from above.
