Although he found it amusing, as Isabella's bodyguard, Adolf still stood in front of Isabella dutifully and cast a Magic Net in an attempt to take down Connor Ferguson.
But at this moment, a pitch-black magic sword appeared in Connor's hand at an unknown time. He used all the mana in his body to fiercely slash out. Two demonic dark energy sword slashes, one taking advantage of the time when Jonathan, who had just injured Valga, had yet to react, chopping off Jonathan's head.
The other slash tore through Adolf's magic net effortlessly and went straight for Adolf.
Adolf, who was originally relaxed, suddenly had a change in expression when he felt the enormous power of the sword slash. However, because he had underestimated his opponent, it was already impossible for him to use any means to block it. The only thing he could do now was either dodge or take it head-on! There wasn't a third option.
Adolf sighed in his heart when he realized that Isabella was standing behind him. He prepared himself to face the attack head-on. But at this moment, a gentle wave of mana came from behind him. Adolf didn't expect to be attacked from behind. He was caught off guard and was knocked to the side.
When Adolf came back to his senses, he saw Connor Ferguson, whose face was as pale as a sheet, placing a pitch-black cross sword on Isabella's neck.
At the sight of this, Adolf felt as if the world was spinning. To avoid provoking Connor, he immediately signaled the three Magi from the noble's faction to stop fighting. He then consoled Connor, "Connor, we can talk things over slowly. Don't do anything stupid!"
Connor Ferguson didn't say anything after hearing Adolf's words. He silently glanced at everyone present. When he saw that Varga didn't take the opportunity to escape, Connor's heart sank. He didn't know what to say.
Connor then looked at Bisping and Southgate, who were ready to make a move. He knew that he couldn't let the situation get out of control again. He looked at Varga and said coldly, "Why aren't you leaving? Why are you still here? Do you want me to die in front of you? "
Although Connor's words were very cold, Varga could naturally understand the deep affection and self-sacrifice in Connor's words. Although he was still very reluctant, Varga bit his lips when he saw the urgency in Connor's eyes. He immediately made a decision and turned to fly away without looking back.
Seeing that Varga was finally willing to leave, Connor finally felt relieved. However, he still said vigilantly, "Everyone, please don't act rashly. I don't want to make a big deal out of this, but don't force me either!"
After saying that, Connor's gaze went past Adolf, Hilbia, and the bald Puich brothers to land on Bisping and Southgate. Adolf and the others also looked at them after hearing Connor's words.
Southgate and Bisping, who were about to take the opportunity to escape, smiled wryly under everyone's gazes. They didn't dare to act rashly.
Although Connor had the Draza Magic Sword on her neck, Isabella, who was being held hostage, remained very calm from the beginning to the end. There was no change in her expression at all, as if her life wasn't in the hands of others …
Bisping, Connor, Adolf, and the others just stood there and waited for more than an hour. Connor watched the people around him become more and more agitated, and his body gradually couldn't hold on any longer. He was full of bitterness. He never thought that he would die here in the end.
Although he was full of helplessness, Connor felt a little comforted when he thought about how Varga might have escaped with his life in the one hour that he had fought for.
At this moment, Bisping and Southgate finally couldn't hold back anymore. The two of them took advantage of the moment when Adolf and the others' attention was on Connor and Isabella to escape into the distance.
Seeing Bisping and Southgate leaving, Adolf and the others immediately wanted to chase after them, but Isabella was still being held hostage by Connor. For the sake of Isabella's safety, they didn't dare to act rashly. They could only watch Bisping and Southgate escape …
However, at this moment, Connor, who had been struggling and feeling dizzy, couldn't hold on any longer. The Derossa Demon Sword in his hand fell to the ground, and his body swayed. He fell to the ground and fainted.
Adolf's eyes immediately lit up when he saw Connor fall to the ground. He wanted to capture Connor, but before he could do anything, Isabella, who hadn't spoken since she was held hostage, said coldly, "I will deal with Connor Ferguson. You guys go after Bisping and Southgate. You must capture them and cripple Reyes's right-hand men!"
In response to Isabella's order, Adolf glanced regretfully at the unconscious Connor Ferguson on the ground. However, he still nodded and led the remaining Pulic brothers and Hilbia to carry out the order. They split into two groups and chased after the fleeing Bisping and Southgate.
After Adolf and the others left, only Connor and Isabella were left. Isabella took a deep look at Adolf who had fainted on the ground, then sighed with self-reproach. She took out a light purple pill from her space ring and fed it to Connor.
After taking the purple pill, Connor soon regained consciousness as the effects of the pill took effect in his body. When he opened his eyes and saw Isabella standing beside him, he ignored the pain in his body and thanked Isabella sincerely, "Thank you!"
After using the Derossa Demon Sword's Evil Spirit Slash to kill Varga and breaking Adolf's magic net, Connor was already at the end of his rope. If Isabella hadn't given in and pushed Adolf away, Connor wouldn't have been able to capture her, let alone buy an hour for Varga to escape.
