Humail wasn't in a hurry to catch up to Elena. Instead, he smiled faintly and muttered to himself, "And here I thought you had something to rely on, Elena. You actually have the guts to hide here. So it's the old man who gave you the Azure Wings!"
"But if you think you can escape from me with the Azure Light Wings, you're sorely mistaken." As soon as he finished his sentence, he chased after Elena like a bolt of white lightning. His current speed was even faster than Elena's with the Azure Light Wings.
Elena, who had just pulled away from Humail, didn't have time to celebrate when she sensed Humail chasing after her. She cursed in her heart.
"Damn it!"
After thinking for a few seconds, Elena took out three ice blue glass balls the size of a baby's fist from her space ring and threw them at Humail who had already caught up.
Humail didn't know what they were, but he didn't hesitate. With a wave of his hand, several rays of cold light flashed and split the three glass balls in half.
However, to Humail's surprise, after the glass ball was broken, it began to release a large amount of grayish-white gas. In just a few breaths, the grayish-white gas enveloped him and the area he was in.
Upon sensing the suppression of her mind power by the greyish-white gas, Humail, who was trapped in the greyish-white gas, was forced to stay in the gas for the time being.
"Hmph!"
Humail sneered as he looked at the greyish-white gas around him. He then chanted an incantation. "Kloist … Catchtisron … Penstri …"
As soon as he chanted the incantation, the greyish-white gas that trapped Humail melted away like snow under the sun. Although Humail managed to break free from the greyish-white gas, with the help of the Azure Light Wings, Elena had already disappeared without a trace.
Humail didn't seem to be angry at all. He looked around and immediately chased after Elena to the left.
Half an hour later, Elena, who couldn't fly any longer, leaned against a big olive tree to rest. A few minutes after she swallowed the potion, she closed her eyes and began to meditate to digest the potion. Suddenly, a white light rushed straight towards her. It stopped a hundred meters away from Elena's position, revealing Humail inside.
Elena, who was sitting under the olive tree, opened her eyes when she sensed Humail's arrival. She quietly looked at Humail. Her situation seemed to be worse than before, but Elena's expression didn't show the slightest bit of panic. She was as calm as Mount Tai.
Humail wanted to mock Elena, but her expression changed all of a sudden. She looked past Elena and saw the big olive tree behind her.
"Humail, long time no see. How have you been?"
A middle-aged man wearing a white robe and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses walked out from behind the olive tree and stood in front of Humains. He looked like a teacher.
Although Humail was shocked by the appearance of the middle-aged man in front of him, he was the most powerful cardinal in the Church of the Storm after all. He soon recovered from his shock. He looked at Elena, who was sitting under the olive tree, and then looked at the middle-aged man who walked out from behind the olive tree with a smile on his face. He sneered with anger in his heart. "Elena, no wonder you're so confident. It turns out that you're already in cahoots with Reyes."
"Humail, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years since we parted ways in Bernabeu. Why are you so rude to me the moment we meet? If I remember correctly, this isn't your style. "Reyes adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and said nonchalantly," You're not the type to do that.
Humail ignored Reyes's mockery and focused all his attention on Elena. To be honest, he had thought of many possibilities, but he never expected that Elena's last resort would be Reyes, the Secret Society's professor!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Humail would have found it hard to believe what was happening in front of him.
After all, everyone knew that Elena, who had just become a level-2 wizard, was in high spirits. Her happiness had only lasted for a short while before she was defeated by Reyes. The Church of the Storm had also suffered heavy losses. They had lost several official wizards, including the intelligence director of Blake's Organization, Cristante.
Under such circumstances, how could she, Elena, work with Reyes?
Could it be that the Church of the Storm's defeat in Flosinone had been part of Reyes and Elena's plan all along?
Under Hummel's gaze, Elena sighed softly and said, "You said that you liked Emperor Lauer's words the most. 'In this world, there are no eternal friends, nor are there eternal enemies. There are only eternal interests.'"
"If you were willing to let me go just now, Humail, I wouldn't have done this."
When he heard Elena use his own words to mock him, Hummel's expression turned gloomy. Although the situation seemed to be unfavorable for him, he didn't regret his decision. Elena's death was the only thing that could completely eliminate the threat she posed to him!
"Humail, since we've known each other for decades, let me tell you what's going on," Reyes said with a smile.
Upon hearing Reyes's words, Humail shifted his gaze from Elena to Reyes, waiting for Reyes's answer.
"Actually, from the beginning, my target was you, Humail. I thought that your old man would send you to lead everything in Flosinone, so I set up such a big trap for you.
"But the Pope is indeed the Pope. He's really unpredictable. He actually sent Miss Elena here, so I had no choice but to let Miss Elena suffer," Reyes said helplessly. He even sighed at the end.
