The Undead Couple, Venari and Kelton.
In his previous life, Gepmazoshegigat had thoroughly studied strategies for dealing with these notoriously challenging bosses from Little Rogue Adventures.@@novelbin@@
Not only did he need to face Venari and Kelton, but also the lich Oberus, who had summoned them to the academy.
While the location of the battle had changed, the bossesâ behavior likely hadnât. Thus, the Heroâs Party had divided into physical and magical attack squads, as per the strategy. Gepmazoshegigat had even prepared by giving Agnes a signaling device, ensuring she would join the magical attack squad when the time came.
Signals were prearranged: the left arm was signal one for Agnes, and the right arm was signal one for him.
Furthermore, he hadnât overlooked the presence of the lich Oberus. Gepmazoshegigat had discreetly informed Delond Prime, the headmaster of Luminar Academy, of the infiltration. To minimize student panic, Delond was likely conducting a covert search.
Lore indicated that Delond had connections with Harold during the war, so if luck held, they might join forces against Oberus. At the very least, Delond could buy time in case the lich appeared unexpectedly. While a magic-versus-magic fight with Oberus might endanger Delond, Gepmazoshegigat intended to finish his own battle swiftly and assist.
âKyaaah!!â
âMy lady, watch out!â
BOOM!
âUgh, I really hate this! Why am I, neither a graduate nor part of the Heroâs Party, risking my life against a giant monster?!â
âSister-in-law, shall I escort you outside the frontlinesâ¦?â
âNo need! Take this to Lord Blackwood and Mr. Thomas instead! If I leave now, itâll only make things harder for everyone! Do I look like the type to abandon ship?!â
