The Dark Mage was now in a state of panic. He didn't know who had shot the arrows at him.

The pain began to radiate throughout his body from that back. It's getting more and more intolerable.

But he still had to concentrate on his current target which was the Dragon. He couldn't allow his concentration to waver which would let what he had gambled on go to waste.

By now the black-robed being had almost reached Dragon-Erend. His hands that which pale bones stretched out towards Dragon-Erend in a slow motion that added to his impression of horror.

Dragon-Erend kept moving his whole body trying to rebel. But the chains tightly bound his body.

The chains seemed to have a consciousness of their own. And they couldn't possibly let the Dragon-Erend escape their snare.

Dragon-Erend still doesn't realize that a new problem has come to the Dark Mage. Finally, the Dark Mage saw the true figure that had shot arrows at him.

He had shot from behind him so the Dark Mage couldn't see him. But now it seemed that the figure was trying to find a more deadly shot. So he moved to aim for the front of the Dark Mage's body.

Because of that, the Dark Mage was finally able to see him. The figure was wearing a dark green robe that camouflaged his body behind the tree leaves.

He was hiding behind one of the thick branches of a tree. But the Dark Mage's eyes could see him.

It's just that right now the Dark Mage can't do anything. It was all because he had to concentrate on the magic circle to take the Dragon's soul.

When he turned his head towards the monster. The three-headed monster was fighting the Dragon made of Slime.

The Dark Mage regretted his actions. His act of summoning the three-headed monster proved useless due to the presence of the Slime. He was just wasting his Magic energy.

The Dark Mage gritted his teeth fiercely. In this situation, he had no other choice but to defend his life but to cancel the cast of the magic circle and take care of the archer.

The archer had already drawn his bow and aimed at the Dark Mage's head. The Dark Mage realized that. Knowing that his life was now in great danger, the Dark Mage canceled the cast from the magic circle.

The black-robed skull figure that came out of the magic circle stopped halfway to Dragon-Erend. Then it faded into black flakes followed by a magic circle from which he came out.

The magic circle split into green and black flakes and then disappeared.

'What happened?' Erend was surprised at the disappearance of the magic circle.

'Has the Dark Mage run out of energy?' When the magic circle had disappeared, Dragon-Erend finally saw that the Dark Mage was stretching his arms to the side.

A layer of green and black Magic surrounded the Dark Mage's body like a protective sphere.

Erend wondered what the Dark Mage was actually doing. Why did he suddenly create a shield?

But Erend's question was immediately answered after something shot towards the Dark Mage.

Something like an arrow shrouded in flames shot out from beneath the trees and shot toward the Dark Mage. But because the Dark Mage had already created protective magic, the fire arrow just hit the shield and bounced off.

'Who is that?' Erend wondered in his mind.

When he turned his head, the Dragon-Slime was receiving blows and attacks from the three-headed monster.

Turns out, the three-headed monster can shoot three different attacks from its three heads.

Erend saw him spitting fire, ice, and a thick liquid that was most likely poison or acid. Either way is equally dangerous.

But at least the Slime could withstand those attacks. Erend was sure that he could last a little longer.

'Oh, Mighty Dragon.' Suddenly a voice sounded inside Erend's head.

The voice of a woman he didn't know where it came from was heard. After that, the sound of explosions followed.

Dragon-Erend looked up and saw that the Dark Mage was being surrounded by attacks from Magic missiles and fire arrows.

Erend immediately noticed that another party was there. And for some reason he didn't know, they were fighting the Dark Mage and helping him.

The Dark Mage seemed to have a hard time keeping his protective sphere amid the attacks.

'Who are you?' Erend asked the female voice inside his head.

'My name is Annette. We are a group of human adventurers,' the voice replied.

'Adventurers?' Erend was surprised.

What he heard was like something that seemed to come from a game or some fantasy story he had heard before. Then Erend remembered that he was in fact, living in a fantasy world right now.

Erend forgot the existence of these adventurers because he was only always in the Elves' palace.

But it is undeniable that 'adventurers' are a very thick element in a fantasy story.

'Yes, Mighty Dragon. We saw how you fought that Dark Mage. We know that the Dark Mage is a great threat to this world. But his strength is too great for us to fight,' Annette said.

'Oh, that's why you waited until I weakened him and you just attacked?' Erend asked.

There was a slight pause before Annette answered. 'Yes, Mighty Dragon. We didn't mean to take advantage of you.'

'It's fine. Don't worry about it. Now the important thing is that you must break the chains that bind me.' Erend said.

'Yes, Mighty Dragon.'

After that, a blue and orange glow shot out from behind the Dragon-Erend's body.

Dragon-Erend turned his head and saw a woman with long black hair standing with her arms stretched out towards him.

She was standing on a large tree branch. The blue and orange light began to stretch out and surround the chains that bound Dragon-Erend's body. A moment later...

'PRANGG!'

'PRANGG!'

'PRANGG!'

...

One by one the chains broke and fell to the ground. Dragon-Erend's arms, legs, and body were freed from the chains.

'Thank you. Annette. Now I can fight again!' Erend said.

But Annette was too stunned to reply.
