Costate was still engaged in close combat with the enemy behind him, the sound waves of battle frequently reaching him.

But at this moment, Ronald encountered a very practical problem.

—He must reduce his pursuit speed.

Because of the island's hidden properties, as long as Ronald moved quickly, he would lose track of the enemy the moment his feet left the ground.

If he blindly pursued speed, the opponent would seize the opportunity to make a few turns, turning the advantage of speed into a disadvantage. As for using the Flying Spell, that was out of the question!

"What a hassle..."

He muttered, while straightforwardly pulling out the original text, chanting a spell as he continued the chase: "Starting from the relationship between the entire Earth and the sky, we will begin to construct our cognition."

The Astronomy Master's spell instantly locked onto the enemy.

The Caster of the [Nine Commandments Meeting] who chose to avoid the impact indeed couldn't resist the powerful magic and was directly dragged back by Ronald.

Clang—

The black sword blade flashed.

The moment he confirmed the spell was effective, the Saint Catherine sword in Ronald's hand was already swinging forward, slashing straight towards the enemy affected by Star Traction, who was recoiling backward in black.

Dealing with the enemies of the [Nine Commandments Meeting].

Especially such dangerous beings who have mastered the original text.

Ronald had no intention, nor could he afford, to show mercy, only striving to kill them as swiftly as possible.

Splash—

However, this sword strike passed with a very subtle sensation in his hand.

This swift and accurate strike from Ronald did not achieve the deserved outcome. The Caster of the [Nine Commandments Meeting] wasn't harmed at all, merely knocked to the ground by the spell, then staggered to stand up again.

"So slick... Is it seawater?"

With a grave expression, Ronald looked at the blade in his hand.

After swinging the sword, he felt a peculiar texture from the sword's surface, and now he saw that the previously clean blade had become moist, with the scent of seawater lingering on it.

Ronald swung the sword to fling away the seawater and looked up, immediately understanding what had transpired a moment ago.

The enemy he had pulled back with magic indeed couldn't resist this power.

But this guy simultaneously transformed part of his body into seawater, using elemental-like methods to avoid being slain by a sword.

"Ronald, Ronald Adler, right?"

At this time, the [Nine Commandments Meeting] Caster staggered to his feet, abandoning his escape, his eyes fixed intently on Ronald across from him.

"I don't know why you're here."

"But the current [Nine Commandments Meeting] is not..."

The [Nine Commandments Meeting] Caster's words abruptly ceased.

Because, at that instant, the Ronald who had been across from him suddenly vanished. When the man's eyes could once again catch Ronald's movement, he had already appeared right in front of him.

How fast must one be to surpass the observational limits of the human eye?

This was the first thought of the [Nine Commandments Meeting], and the only thought that emerged before the Firelight ignited.

Ronald, who arrived before him at a speed beyond common sense, was wielding the swinging blade. But unlike the previous strike, this time the pitch-black blade lit up with a sanctified aura of Firelight.

—The Power of Solar Day!

Ronald then unleashed the spell of chaotic incantations.

Since the enemy before him could transform his body into seawater, he would simply use the sun's fire to evaporate it.

Thus, the originally protective transformational ability instead became his fatal weakness!

"Being able to turn into water doesn't necessarily mean you're safe."

Sizzle—

Bang!

If he had reacted in time, this Caster would surely have acted accordingly.

But he wasn't quick enough.

While still pondering Ronald's terrifying speed, without realizing the situational shift, he was directly struck by this sword, his body transforming into seawater under automatic spell activation.

The high-temperature flame and seawater collided, and the heat immediately started to transfer.

The body of the enemy transformed into seawater was instantly evaporated, a large amount of steam erupting from the Caster, the excessively rapid release process even causing a violent impact.

Ronald neither dodged nor evaded, standing motionless amidst the steam.

Such an extent of influence posed no threat to him, so after executing one sword strike, Ronald once again activated a spell, blowing away the vapor immediately, restoring his advantage in the field of vision.

"Huh? Is this possible too?"

Seeing the change before him clearly, Ronald couldn't help but speak.

Because in the direction away from him, the Caster of the [Nine Commandments Meeting] was running away.

This original text holder hadn't perished on the spot.

But compared to before, his physique had shrunk by about a third, now resembling an underdeveloped teenager, fleeing towards the sea.

This water elemental capability eliminated his physiological fatal points.

Although Ronald's sword caused him significant loss, it didn't affect his life essence much.

In fact, due to his reduced size, this guy even ran a bit faster now. And because of Ronald's previous impression, this guy kept looking back frequently while fleeing, appearing quite pitiable at the thought of being caught again.

It was truly unspeakable.

"..."

"Starting from the relationship between the entire Earth and the sky, we will begin to construct our cognition."

Ronald shook his head while walking in the direction of his escape.

At the same time, the [Measure Length] of the Astronomy Master was activated, reducing the distance between him and the enemy to the shortest.

The enemy wasn't in his options for pity.

Especially now in the territory of the [Nine Commandments Meeting], solving the enemy quickly was the rightful course.

In the next second, Ronald raised his sword again.

The Power of Solar Day burned fiercely on the blade, erupting with an even more terrifying temperature than before.

At this time, the fleeing Caster of the [Nine Commandments Meeting] glanced back.

He noticed Ronald's actions, a hint of confusion in his eyes, but soon realized the imminent danger.

—There was no reason for Ronald to make such meaningless moves.

The instant the sense of crisis arose, the original text holder of the [Nine Commandments Meeting] leaped forward, ready to drop on the ground, avoiding possible slashing from the void.

But he guessed wrong.

[Measure Length] wasn't a spell capable of swinging a giant blade, but an ability to redefine the distance between him and Ronald.

Such dodging moves had no practical significance.

Enhancing defense before the sword strike fell would have been the right answer.

—Boom!

This time, Ronald's blade descended once more, the terrifying heat simultaneously landing on him.

The exaggerated white steam exploded instantly this time.

Covering the surrounding area equivalent to a house, the impact even plowed through the ground once over.

Watching the scene before his eyes.

Ronald's expression didn't relax.

The reconnaissance magic told him that the enemy still had psychological activity—this guy was still alive!
