-1537- Really think you're somebody?

At this moment, the Sky Wizards surrounding Rozen's group all gathered their magic, activating their alchemical magic weapons and charging toward Rozen's location.

Rozen was immediately met with countless attacks from all directions, leaving him no choice but to remain in place.

"Stop!"

Seeing this, River and Cris were both shocked and furious, about to step forward to intervene, but were stopped by Emilie.

"That level of attack won't do anything to him."

Emilie was watching with great interest.

The Sky Wizards raised their magic weapons high and launched a ferocious attack at Rozen without hesitation.

The magic swordsmen swung their blades, slicing through the air.

The magic spearmen thrust their sharp tips forward.

The magic axemen brought their axes down on Rozen's head.

Even the middle and rear-ranked magic gunners and magic archers launched attacks, with magic bullets and arrows tearing through the air toward Rozen.

The onslaught was nothing short of a torrential storm.

Despite their thuggish nature, these people were all Sky Wizards from the floating fortress city on the frontlines, and they were in no way inferior to the A-class Sky Wizards in ordinary academy floating cities.

Faced with the full-force assault from such a group of Sky Wizards, Rozen stood still, unmoving.

Seeing this, the Sky Wizards sneered, and even Jamira Dambelcrew looked satisfied.

However, what happened next completely shook them to the core.

"Clang!"

One of the rogue Sky Wizards' magic swords struck Rozen's body, but it produced the sound of metal clashing against metal, sending sparks flying.

"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang...!"

The following attacks from the rogue Sky Wizards all landed on Rozen's body, yet they all sounded like they were striking steel. Amid the crisp sounds, sparks flew, and a forceful wind blew, before all the attacks were repelled.

Even the magic bullets and arrows from the outer circle of magic gunners and archers were deflected like they had hit solid iron, bouncing off Rozen the moment they made contact.

"What…!?"

The unbelievable sight left everyone, including Jamira Dambelcrew, in shock.

Only then did Rozen move.

"Whoosh!"

Rozen flipped his palm, and a gold talisman appeared in his hand.

"Order!"

With a brief incantation, the gold talisman glowed and transformed into a golden sword.

"Buzz!"

In the next moment, as magic surged, an invisible blade of psychic power burst forth, covering the sword's edge.

This was the seventh stage of the Eight Tier of Magus, a technique that pushed psychic power to its limits—Magic Resilience.

Using this technique, Rozen raised the sword of Magic Resilience and swept it around him.

"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang————!"

The sound was of all the rogue Sky Wizards' alchemical magic weapons being shattered by the sword.

"Boom————!"

The sweeping sword's psychic energy unleashed a shockwave and an explosion.

With just one sweep, Rozen shattered all of the rogue Sky Wizards' magic weapons, and they were caught in the resulting shockwave.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh...!"

Amid the screams, the Sky Wizards were all blasted away as if they had been hit by a bomb, landing on the ground like discarded trash. After twitching a few times, they stopped moving.

Against these Sky Wizards from the frontline fortress city, Rozen defeated them all with a single blow.

"Impossible!"

Jamira Dambelcrew screamed in disbelief, unwilling to accept the reality.

However, if he truly knew of Rozen's exploits, he should have known this wasn't an impossible feat.

More than a year ago, while still a third-year preparatory student, Rozen had already knocked down all the Sky Wizards in the frontline fortress city, earning their submission to his command.

These Sky Wizards, despite knowing Rozen's identity, ignored this story and believed they could take him down. What a ridiculous joke.

And Jamira Dambelcrew, who was shouting "impossible," was the biggest joke of them all.

The conclusion was that these guys were nothing but clowns.

However, even if they were clowns, that didn't mean Rozen wasn't going to hold a grudge.

With that, Rozen lifted his gaze and stared at Jamira Dambelcrew.

"Eek...!"

Jamira immediately let out a pathetic cry, collapsing to the ground.

This was because Rozen's gaze carried no trace of mercy, only sheer, chilling coldness.

"You... what are you trying to do? Don't come any closer!"

Jamira shouted at Rozen in a trembling voice, his bravado gone.

But by then, Rozen had already flashed forward, appearing right in front of Jamira.

"Wait… wait…!"

Sensing the danger, River and Cris quickly called out to stop him.

But it was already too late.

"You said you'd break my arms and legs, right?"

Rozen's voice was calm.

"Crack!"

In the next instant, Rozen lifted his foot and stomped down. In a terrifying sound, he crushed one of Jamira's legs.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh…!"

Jamira let out a heart-wrenching scream.

"You said you'd smash my mouth, right?"

Rozen showed no mercy, kicking out with his other foot, striking Jamira's mouth with a heavy blow.

"Pffft!"

Jamira immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, his teeth shattered entirely, and his face caved in from the impact, sending him rolling across the ground like a discarded doll. He finally came to a stop after rolling some distance, lying there, barely clinging to life.

The scene fell into sudden silence.

"You…"

Seeing Rozen mercilessly unleash such violence, River and Cris were both terrified.

"This ..."

Even Emilie was stunned, not expecting Rozen to go to such lengths.

Rozen, on the other hand, remained indifferent, dispersing the Magic Resilience sword in his hand.

"Even the Pope and Zeth didn't dare threaten me. You really think you're somebody, huh?"

Rozen glanced at the half-dead Jamira Dambelcrew, his lips curling in disdain.

Watching Rozen, Emilie aside, River and Cris couldn't help but come to one conclusion.

"This is bad..."

Both of them had the same thought.

On the very first day after arriving in the underground city, Rozen had not only rejected the recruitment of humanity's highest authority but also had a violent confrontation with the only Collapse Force user in the human faction. And now, he had mercilessly beaten the former councilman, leaving him half-dead.

From the direction of the Aries Palace, the presence of an approaching group signaled that the Pope had already dispatched people to investigate the situation.

River and Cris gazed at Rozen, who stood there, unfazed.

In their hearts, they both let out a silent sigh.
