Chapitre 185: Facing Off the Light Shrine Elder

James wasn't exaggerating, as in the next few moments Phoerinho appeared to come, holding a large oval shaped strange shield and a long sword that looked like a spear!

The moment he approached James he didn't hold back, as he waved his sword trying to kill him.

"Stefanie!" James muttered before the rod moved on her own to stand between him and the incoming attack. The next moment a shield appeared around James, preventing the attack from landing on him.

The sword moved back to the hand of Phoerinho, who stood in his place watching the rod going back to James' hand. "Tsk, such a gem wasted in the hands of some foolish weak kid," he then glanced at James as he added, with his voice appearing directly in James' mind:

"Listen kid, as long as I'm here you can't move an inch forward. To be honest, they hired me to kill you but I like your artifacts. I want them both! In exchange I will let you leave here with your life."
