Malespera attacked first. She immediately cast the Doomsday Flame. Malespera wanted to wound Roland quickly, seriously.

The purple flame appeared next to Roland and turned into a sphere, but Roland quickly bounced aside. Malespera didn't expect Roland to be able to get away from her attack so easily. Roland didn't use any spells. He jerked to the girl and struck her.

Malespera managed to react and blocked the blow at the last moment. She tried to retreat, but Roland wouldn't let her. He threw fast and accurate punches, and Malespera barely had time to defend herself.

Whooosh.

Malespera's

"Warp

" swirled, and gradually vibrations appeared around her palms. She was using an Amplification Magic spell,

"Sonic Edge.

" This spell was difficult to learn, but its power was also outstanding.

Malespera's palms were now like two sharp blades. If it hit Roland, it would definitely leave a deep cut on his body.

Bam.

She blocked another blow and quickly counterattacked, but Roland didn't even dodge. He grabbed the girl by the wrist and dropped her to the ground in one motion.

Crackling.

Malespera quickly got to her feet, but Roland had already cast one of his spells. He hadn't used it in a long time since it was a zero-level spell. Roland would not cast a first-level spell in this battle. That would not be fair.

Blue lightning struck Malespera. The girl bounced aside, but she was wounded. There was a terrible burn on her left leg, and she needed immediate medical attention.

"You know Evan. I'm a little disappointed. Your sister is nowhere near as strong as you are.

" Calmly Roland said and cast another zero level spell.

Droplets of water appeared around Malespera, which quickly turned into a giant bubble. It engulfed Malespera there was no way the girl could get out of her confinement.

Evan grinned,

"Wait, this isn't over.

"

Immediately after his words, Malespera cast two spells in a row. The first was Magic Missile, which got her out of the trap. The second was a Magic Invocation spell. Several iron chains appeared from the ground and immobilized Roland.

Malespera rushed to Roland and hit him with all her might, but the young man just crouched down, and the girl's blow passed him by.

Snap.

Roland snapped his finger, and several deadly drops flew toward Malespera. Two of them pierced through the girl. The girl spat out a mouthful of blood and held her side, glaring furiously at Roland. There was nothing she could do against him, and after all, Roland wasn't even trying. He was just playing with Malespera, and it really pissed her off.

"That's it. I'm fed up. She's too weak, and she needs still growing and growing.

" Calmly said Roland freeing himself from his chains.

Malespera was enraged, but she could not attack Roland. If she held on to her wounds, she would bleed out very quickly.

"Hell, if I hadn't fallen for your last attack, I could have easily overpowered you!

" Malespera shouted. She definitely didn't want to give up so easily.

"Malespera, you're a genius, but place as the most arrogant person on the planet is already taken. You're still lucky that Roland shot in a way that didn't hit your internal organs.

"

"But, if he hadn't hit, I would have been in one piece! And then I would have dealt him many blows at once!

" Malespera said loudly.

"Ah, never mind. Anyway, you didn't even have a chance to win. Remember this fight and strive to get even better. There are always stronger than you.

" Calmly Evan said.

Evan looked at Roland and said:

"By the way, you never said why you came to see me? Was it just to say hello?

"

Naturally, Evan didn't believe that Roland had come for no reason.

Roland smiled and calmly replied,

"Not here. I don't want anyone else to hear our conversation.

"

Evan nodded, and his spatial ring glowed. A green potion appeared in his hands, which he tossed to Malespera.

"Drink it. Your wounds will heal in about an hour.

"

Evan then headed to his office. There he would be able to talk to Roland face to face.

...

"Talk,

" Evan said slowly.

Roland smirked and said calmly:

"I was planning a robbery. Originally I wanted to do it alone. But, when I found out that you were also in Inlas, I decided to suggest that you join. I think it would be really exciting.

"

Evan hadn't expected Roland to suggest something like that. But, he already wanted to support the idea. This kind of thing was Evan's business.

"I'm extremely interested in your proposal, but I have a question. Why would you want it?

"

Roland was the son of one of the strongest mages in Mossy Vulture. His father was obviously rich and very influential moreover, Roland himself could achieve much if he wanted to. Evan knew better than most that robbery was a significant risk.

"Well, I'm bored, and so I decided to rob someone. That way, I'll entertain myself and get a huge amount of money and resources. That sounds like a great option to me.

" Roland calmly replied.

.

"Okay, who are we robbing, and when do we start?

" Evan asked.

Roland smiled and calmly replied,

"Paper Hydrangea and if there's still time, let's rob someone else. I have a plan to do it all.

"

Evan was wary. He hadn't expected that Roland would want to act so boldly.

"Paper Hydrangea was one of the five strongest organizations in all of Inlas. The head of this organization was at the stage -

"Two-Pointed Star

" with three flames. Such a magician could kill them with one finger if he wished.

"Are you sure? You and I will be killed as soon as they figure out what we're up to.

" Evan muttered cautiously. He was all for the idea, but he wasn't suicidal.

"Well, since I often do assignments from Paper Hydrangea, I know where their warehouse is and how to get there. All that's left to do is to make sure there are either no or very few guards.

"

Evan grinned. A very daring and excellent idea he thought came to him, and he knew how they could rob Paper Hydrangea.

"Roland, we need to make war, and I know how to do it.

"
