On the ground lies a corpse gradually growing cold.

Meanwhile, embedded in the cave wall behind is a stone giant being tormented by the "Power of the Sun."

Two casualties right as the battle begins.

This situation was absolutely beyond what the summoned creatures had anticipated.

The summoned beings gathered in this place are the elite, possessing power within their respective groups. Yet, in battle, they appear so feeble...

Who exactly is this man before them?

On the other hand, Ronald's actions are quite simple compared to the summoned creatures whose emotions have reached the point of being unbearable.

He merely keeps his gaze fixed on these summoned creatures, ensuring that none can escape while steadily closing the distance between both sides.

Given the significant gap in strength.

This method of approaching can exert great pressure on the enemy.

In battle, pressure often causes people to become less rational, leading to unwise choices.

— Just like the summoned creatures in front of him.

Oppressed by Ronald's aura, they remain vigilant of the approaching man, yet some begin to sneak glances at the other half of the battlefield in the cave.

Thus.

The figure of Inspector Nun Audrey comes into view.

On the other side, the situation is entirely different from Ronald's side. Audrey lacks the overwhelming strength to crush the enemy with absolute power, but focused on battle, she fears not engaging in a life-and-death struggle.

While Ronald's imposing aura makes the summoned creatures on this side hesitate to act, Audrey has already charged into the enemies on the other side, dragging several summoned creatures into her rhythm of chaotic battle with her extraordinary skills and spells.

In just a few seconds.

Audrey's black robe is already marked with wounds large and small from the battle. Yet, she maintains the fight against her enemies while casting spells to heal her injuries, preventing her from collapsing instantly.

Audrey's combat posture is now like a taut string.

Should any aspect falter.

This nun would break instantly, leading herself to peril.

Expert battle precision, fearless combat awareness, and absolute confidence in her capabilities.

Only warriors who excel in these aspects dare to employ such a fighting style in life-or-death combats.

Audrey.

Is one who meets these criteria.

The results yielded by her daring battle strategies are also significant.

Under such a fierce assault by the nun.

Among the enemies she faces, the summoned creatures killed or incapacitated now number up to five!

If she can continue maintaining such exquisite combat techniques.

Audrey has a great chance to secure the final victory!

"..."

Then, an interesting scene unfolds.

The summoned creatures facing Ronald are in a situation of hopelessness, with almost no glimmer of victory against Ronald; on the other side is Audrey, like a berserker dancing amidst enemies, elevating the art of combat to the utmost, constantly risking her life.

Choosing either of these two.

Clearly, neither is an easy opponent to deal with.

"..."

"I'm done!"

An unexpected situation arose.

Under such immense psychological pressure, two of the summoned creatures on Ronald's side suddenly wailed. A strong surge of magic fluctuation appeared on their bodies, and in the next second, they vanished from the firelight-gleaming underground cave.

...

Did they… run away?

Seeing this, Ronald's expression also became slightly complicated.

Although he meant to pressure these creatures, he hadn't expected it to be so effective.

Compared to the hybrids in the ruins of Shuangxi City who dared to sacrifice their own lives.

This choice to flee without a fight seems somewhat too timid.

On the other side, the face of the summoner leader, with its expression incomprehensible to humans, also harbored immense anger.

Not all of the summoned creatures present have been long-hidden veterans in the human world.

For those venturing into the human realm.

Each individual is a precious force.

Looking to the distant past, only those strong enough, able to evade the caster's control, or hybrids enlightened by bloodline over long years, could join them.

Such members were always rare.

Now, gaining large numbers of companions actually involves these summoned creatures manipulating human casters to summon them one by one.

— Controlled human casters naturally lack high proficiency.

— Thus, the abilities of those summoned are correspondingly low.

Only recently did the successful escapee from Shuangxi City bring them new techniques, allowing stronger companions to be practically summoned and aiding their cause.

But the result…

Just like the two who ran away earlier.

These companions, inexperienced in trials, may even succumb to psychological pressure, choosing to break their summoning contract and flee.

Losing strength aside.

The blow to morale on this side is already a severe impact.

After all, not every summoned creature or hybrid has the same ability to escape amidst crisis.

"..."

"Are you feeling extremely angry now?"

At this moment, Ronald spoke during the summoner leader's most extreme emotional state. After all, Ronald was observing these enemies' every move through his Greed Original Sin.

With someone opting to flee.

Ronald certainly didn't mind pouring salt on the wound, continuing to undermine the enemy's morale.

"When facing a life-and-death crisis, it's natural for life to feel fear, something you should understand."

"I suggest you be understanding toward them—"

"..."

"Human, there's no need for your comment!"

Finally.

Ronald's attitude utterly enraged the summoner leader.

This figure, covered in crystalline scales, tore off the Pride Original Sin with the most ferocious demeanor, simultaneously swelling rapidly in size, doubling in an instant.

Then, a giant woven with golden light, resembling a metallic puppet, appeared in the cave.

"Interesting..."

Ronald, of course, stood ready, preparing to counter the opponent's assault and expecting to utterly crush it with thunderous means.

But the battle-ready summoner leader did not charge directly as he anticipated.

Instead, using his transformed imposing presence.

He turned hastily.

With a massive arm, he lunged forward, reaching directly toward the adjacent bound human casters!
