After retiring, I became Loli’s magic mentor

Facing the deadly bone knife, Ryan quickly drew out Octavia's sword with his left hand to intercept it.

There was a teeth-grinding friction sound, and the attacking bone knife was deflected by Ryan's sword, but one of the bone knives still hit Ryan's right shoulder.

There was a sound of "swooshing" as the knife easily cut through the flesh on Ryan's shoulder, with the blade even embedded in the shoulder bone!

The piercing pain made Ryan couldn't help but let out a muffled groan. He kicked the dwarf off the blade of his magic sword with all his strength, and then immediately released healing magic on his wound.

——Don’t underestimate the enemy. If I’m not mistaken, this should be one of the five demon generals under the Demon King, the living dead Sarulant.

The Five Demon Generals...

Ryan's face twitched slightly. If it were the Five Demon Generals, then this combat power would be understandable.

I don't think this can be a small fry from the demon clan, otherwise the demon clan would have defeated Hedley long ago.

But... the living dead?

"Hey...hehe..."

The demon general Sarulant laughed strangely again, then raised the bone knife in his hand and wiped the blood on the bandage on his mouth:

"The blood of the Black Knight is really... really delicious... hehehe..."

Ryan felt a chill in his heart and raised his hand to summon a gust of cold wind. The biting cold wind instantly formed a layer of ice under Salulant's feet.

"Hey?"

Sarulant was stunned for a moment, and just when he was about to raise his feet to break free, he suddenly felt an extremely hot feeling on his face.

When he looked up, he saw a huge fire phoenix approaching his face.

"boom!!"

The fire phoenix angrily hit Salulant's body, and then exploded, with scorching heat waves spreading in all directions, accompanied by a piercing scream.

The thing that the living dead fear most is fire.

Ryan shook off the remaining flames on his palms and pulled out the black sword again. With a thought, the two long swords in his left and right hands burst into flames at the same time.

He moved his right shoulder slightly. Although it was still a little painful, the dual recovery effects of the healing technique and the Eternal Tree did not affect his movements much.

The flames dissipated, but flames were still hanging on Sarulant's black cloak, and his aura was obviously much weaker.

This cloak is obviously a treasure bestowed by the Demon King to Sarulanant. Perhaps considering Sarulanant's fear of fire, the cloak on Sarulanant has extremely strong fire resistance.

Ordinary fire could not hurt him, but his opponent was Ryan!

Seeing the right opportunity, Ryan suddenly rushed towards Sarulant like an arrow, and attacked left and right with two long swords wrapped in phoenix flames.

With no time to dodge, Sarulant could only hastily resist with the bone knife, but once the bone knife touched Ryan's blade, the phoenix fire would spread through the bone knife to Sarulant's arm, causing Sarulant to scream continuously.

In the end, Ryan, who had been suppressing and beating Sarulanant, turned around and kicked Sarulanant against the rock wall. He quickly pressed forward, with two swords against Sarulanant's neck and one against his abdomen, pressing him against the wall.

The phoenix flame on the sword had not yet dissipated, burning Salulant so much that he had spasms.

Ryan actually wanted to ask what was going on with the monster below and why this demon general appeared here, but he thought that he would not be able to get anything out of this madman who was one of the five demon generals.

Kill it directly to prevent any further complications.

Thinking of this, the Phoenix flame on Ryan's sword burned more fiercely, trying to burn Salulant to ashes.

Cutting off the head is of no use to the living dead.

Sarulant's screams became sharper and sharper, but in this sharp scream, Ryan also faintly heard a hint of... laughter?

An inexplicable feeling of uneasiness emerged in his heart, and at this moment, Ryan suddenly felt pain in both his feet.

Looking down, he saw two hand-shaped rocks appearing under his feet, tightly grasping his ankles.

not good!

The uneasiness in his heart suddenly erupted, and Ryan immediately let go of Sarulant and tried to escape, but the enemy's sneak attack had already taken effect.

"Pfft-"

A sharp rock spike suddenly protruded from the rock wall in front of Ryan, and pierced Ryan's abdomen in an instant. The sharp part even penetrated Ryan's back!

Ryan felt a sweetness in his throat and spat out a mouthful of blood. He immediately backed away desperately and pulled himself off the rock spike.

After taking two steps back, Ryan half-knelt on the ground, raised his hand to cover the bright transparent hole in his abdomen, and cast healing magic.

Was that... object control magic? Why didn't I sense any magic power at all?

Feeling his vision gradually blurry, Ryan bit the tip of his tongue hard to force himself to wake up.

—— Ryan!!

Alice's urgent and anxious voice sounded in my mind.

Another healing magic that Ryan was familiar with fell on him. This was the healing magic belonging to Alice.

But, facing such a powerful enemy at an unknown distance, this was all Alice could do.

Looking up, he saw a white-haired demon in a black noble dress emerging from the rock wall and bowing elegantly to Ryan:

"I have long heard of your great name, Lord Black Knight. I am one of the five demon generals under the command of the Demon King, the Fate Master, Booth."

Ryan looked around at the two demon generals and forced a smile on his face: "Come specifically... for me?"

Otherwise, there would be nothing worth the two demon generals' trouble to guard here.

"That's right~"

Booth smiled and said, "From provoking Duke Fina, to luring you to Border City, to letting you deal with the Heart of Chaos, all of this was planned by the Demon King."

"Could it be that... you guys have been trying to use this damn Chaos Heart to plot against me since ten years ago?"

Ryan felt a chill in his heart.

Booth shook his head and said, "That's not the case. The Heart of Chaos is a plan we have prepared long ago, and you are just a variable in the middle.

By the way, Lord Black Knight, I have good news for you. In fact, not only the border city, but most of the cities in Hedley close to the demon territory actually have the Chaos Heart that we secretly raise underground. "

Hearing this, Ryan felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. He struggled to stand up: "Cerberus!"

"Roar!!"

Cerberus, who had been unable to contain himself any longer, shrank his body and blocked Ryan behind him.

Seeing this, Booth smiled again: “It’s useless, you can’t escape, Lord Black Knight, since I told you the matter, I must be 100% prepared to keep you here.

Lord Black Knight, please die!"
