Comprehensive Manga: The Master is not here today.

Looking at the people in front of him who were in a daze, Fujimaru Ritsuka showed a satisfied expression, but it was not over yet.

She slowly raised her arm, and as the ground shook slightly, the huge stick that was half embedded in the ground also floated up. The behemoth, which was nearly ten meters wide and hundreds of meters long, just hovered in the low air above everyone's heads, making everyone hold their breath.

Then, she swung the stick in the air, and the stick above her head swung horizontally following her movement. In an instant, the entire space seemed to be compressed and then completely torn apart, producing a terrifying loud explosion, and leaving a large amount of water mist in the path of the stick, as if it were a cloud formed out of thin air.

"—!"

The next moment, a strong air pressure rushed towards everyone, like a passing hurricane, uprooting everything on the path, and even they were about to be carried into the air uncontrollably. Countless building debris were swept by the wind at any time, mixed with sand and dust, and shot towards them like cannonballs!

Seeing this, Mashu's face changed slightly, and the round table cross shield immediately appeared in her hand, and she shouted:

"Everyone, hide now!"

At the same time, she immediately rushed in front of Ju Lang and raised her shield for defense. The next moment after completing the defensive action, countless pieces of gravel blown up by the wind hit the shield like a rainstorm, and continuously made a terrifying crackling sound like frying beans!

Fortunately, the hurricane quickly passed through the area, and everything returned to calm.

“Are you alright…?”

The people who had been hiding carefully poked their heads out of the houses, only to see that the street had become a mess. The exterior walls of the houses on both sides of the street were all pitted and pockmarked by the rubble that swept in. Some even had their entire walls collapsed. The exterior wall of the house they were in was also in tatters, which made everyone shudder with fear.

Then, everyone looked at the huge stick still hovering in the sky like a sword of Damocles with some fear. They were speechless and the shock in their hearts was indescribable.

"…Isn't it just an illusion magic?"

As the situation before them was too challenging to their worldview, Mike Bell swallowed hard and couldn't help but have some doubts. Lin Xia bent down to pick up a piece of gravel on the ground, then looked at the ruins not far away and shook his head:

"Unfortunately, it is not. But..."

——Is this really a power that humans can master?

"Although it is said to shock Kikuro, isn't this a bit too exaggerated...?"

Chilchak muttered in disbelief.

Even though they had seen how Ritsuka Fujimaru performed when he fought the mad magician, the terrifying power displayed by the other party now was still far beyond their imagination.

At the same time, he recalled the scene near Yanlong's body, and he seemed to suddenly understand how Yanlong was killed by Fujimaru Ritsuka.

All I can say is that Yanlong’s death was not at all unjust.

At this time, Kabul came towards them and said to them with a serious expression:

"Mr. Laos, I want to ask, is the crazy magician who fought against Ms. Ritsuka so powerful?"

confrontation?

"This……"

Laos and others looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Although they didn't know how much power the crazy magician still had hidden, but now thinking back to the battle, they only felt that it was fortunate that the other party ran fast enough, otherwise they would probably have been beaten into a paste.

So, Laos shook his head and said:

"From what we've seen, the Mad Magician isn't that powerful, but we're not sure if he has other powers that haven't been revealed yet."

"That's it."

Hearing Laos's answer, Kabul's expression became thoughtful.

"Mr. Julang, are you okay?"

"...Yes, thank you..."

On the other side, after hearing Mash's concerned question, Kikuro gradually came back to his senses. Looking at the building debris all over the ground in front of him, he suddenly felt relieved that he had survived the disaster.

If there hadn't been someone standing in front of him, he would have probably been beaten into a sieve, right?

"That's good."

Hearing this, Mashu also breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka helplessly and said:

"senior……"

"Sorry sorry..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched her cheek in embarrassment. She had not expected that the two attacks would produce a chain reaction. She said to Kikuro apologetically:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kikuro."

"……It doesn't matter."

Ju Lang shook his head with difficulty, looking at the ruins not far away, and then looked with some fear at the huge stick that was still hovering in the sky, like a sword of Damocles, with very complicated feelings.

In the final analysis, what happened just now was just an unintentional aftermath of the opponent's real attack, and even so, the effect it had on them was still like an irresistible natural disaster. And if the opponent really aimed that attack at them...

Just imagining such a scene made him shudder. At the same time, he also completely understood why Fujimaru Ritsuka said that they were a "burden" in the battle.

Indeed, in the face of this level of power, they could only try their best to protect themselves, let alone intervene.

After thinking this through, he finally figured it out, so he looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka again and said frankly:

"I understand. I will take Maizuru and the others away."

Then he bowed deeply and said:

"Please make sure you defeat the Lord of the Labyrinth and free Falin from his control!"

"Well, I will."

……

...

A battle that everyone thought was of a high level ended just as it began, but no one criticized Ju Lang.

Because let alone Julang, even if all of them came together, the ending would not change at all.

Fujimaru Ritsuka put the stick back and when she came in front of the crowd again, the way they looked at her had subtly changed.

In short, Kikuro accepted defeat and prepared to leave with Maizuru and others, and the Kabul team also planned to return to the ground with them.

"Maizuru, prepare to return to the city."

"Yes!"

Maizuru happily agreed, then gave Fujimaru Ritsuka a grateful look and began to prepare to cast the spell.

But at this moment, she suddenly discovered another problem——

"Master, Ma Zui Mu is missing."

"Don't worry about her. She must have defected."

"Yes."

Ju Lang didn't care too much and seemed not surprised by the other party's disappearance.

Although Fujimaru Ritsuka and others were somewhat curious about the inside story, seeing that the other party didn't care, they didn't say much.

At the same time, before leaving, Kabul found Ritsuka Fujimaru again and wanted to talk to her.

Kabul smiled and asked:

"Regarding the question from last time, Ms. Ritsuka, do you have any thoughts now?"

What are your plans after defeating the mad magician and becoming the master of the maze?

"Um……"

Fujimaru Ritsuka thought about it and shook his head again:

"I'm sorry, I may not be able to answer you right now. However, I want to try to talk to the Lord of the Labyrinth first. I want to know why he did all this."

"After I learn more about the maze, perhaps I can answer your question."

"I understand."

A hint of surprise flashed across Kabul's eyes, and then he smiled and sincerely wished:

"I will cheer for you. I hope you can successfully defeat the Lord of the Labyrinth."

There is no doubt that Fujimaru Ritsuka is the person known to be most likely to defeat the Lord of the Labyrinth and become the next Lord of the Labyrinth, so the other party's thoughts are particularly important to him.

And her remarks just now, although seemingly without giving a clear answer, were an unexpected answer to him.

In this situation, the other party did not regard the Lord of the Maze as evil, but wanted to get to know him better. This was something he did not expect.

However, what is more important to him is that he understands that a person like Fujimaru Ritsuka would definitely not be an evil person.
