บท 46: Confrontation With The Elder Lich

When it comes to fighting, which Elder Lich would be the easiest to defeat?

I have a bit of an aversion to the Wind Elder Lich, so I'll exclude that one.

Next... could the Earth Elder Lich possibly absorb my lightning magic through the ground? 

Well, in that case, the Water Elder Lich might have a similar issue.

That leaves... Darkness or Fire. Considering the magic I can use, is Darkness the weakest? 

But since it's a monster, there might be some kind of affinity with Darkness magic... Ugh, thinking too much won't help. 

For now, I'll try challenging either the Fire or Darkness Elder Lich!

After walking for about ten minutes... I successfully encountered the Elder Lich I was hoping to find.

(The gem is red... The Fire Elder Lich.)

The Elder Lich moved slowly forward. I watched its movements from within the shadow of a rock, using Shadow Dive to stay out of its perception.
