Though the two kept greeting them full of smiles. Cade still could feel a chill run down his back.

"..You two.. Are you sure about this?"

Cade tried asking once again, gaining time for Elizabeth's phoenix to finish her evolution.

However, the answer was the same. Gran calmly nodded, gripping his greatsword. Glenn also grinned as he held up his double-edged ax.

"Blame yourself for making us your enemy, kiddo."

The moment Gran muttered, the surroundings changed. A tide of darkness shot up from the right side, engulfing Cade.historical

It was one of Lich's skills that had been passed to Glenn.

By using this veil, he could keep Cade away from the outside world, relieving him of the chance of getting help.

Miss Elizabeth's figure disappeared into the darkness, and Cade was left alone with Glenn and Gran.

"..Haha, now we will not be afraid of harming the girl. Don't worry though. We will treat her well after we are done with you."

Glenn smiled menacingly. But unknown to him, what he had done was just helping Cade.

Cade's biggest concern was harming Elizabeth while battling them. But since the two use this isolation barrier, there's no need for him to be concerned about that anymore.

And as for losing? Cade had never had any thought about losing.

After all, if things came to worst, he still had another eye to be used.

Cade's hand glowed and rapidly summoned Spectre Dullahan in front of him!

"You and your Arcane Card will become an inhabitant here!" Glenn pointed, roared and immediately went at Spectre Dullahan, diving with his dual axes at full force.

Glenn was already strong before. Adding to the fact that its body had been enhanced with the Lich's power. It now had a strange dark aura around him that looked very menacing.

Spectre Dullahan, with sturdy outside armor, didn't have any fear when facing Glenn's ax. He unexpectedly went after Glenn's axes!!

"Keng!!"

Spectre Dullahan's sword fell against the Axes causing sparks to fly. One could see how sharp both the Sword and axes were!

Nonetheless, Cade was far from finished.

The first confrontation was equal. But Spectre DUllahan still had a lot of means at his hand. His body glowed, and blue fire began to appear from his sword.

Sword Thrust!

Using his superior technique, Spectre Dullahan deflected the axes before thrusting his sword at Glenn's shoulder, trying to nullify its ability to hold axes.

But one must not forget that it was not a one-on-one battle.

"Bah Glenn, don't be too rash. Even if you are stronger, your technique is still far from a real Arcane Card!" Gran immediately ordered.

The moment Spectre Dullahan was about to strike Glenn's shoulder, it came and blocked the sword for Glenn.

When it came to fighting with physical bodies, Humans didn't have the slightest of advantages. Therefore, Gran used their numerical advantage to restrict Spectre Dullahan!

And the result was pretty obvious.

Klang!!! Klang!!!! Klang!!!!

After a few rounds of clashing, and Cade could see Spectre Dullahan began to get oppressed by the two.

Yet Cade was far from being panicked.

Since their strength came from their combination attack, then all he needed to do was to break their combination.

" Spectre Dullahan, Phantom Force!!" Cade commanded.

Spectre Dullahan heard this command and immediately maintained a distance.

Glenn and Gran hadn't finished yet when the Spectre Dullahan quickly jumped away.

Utilizing the unpreparedness of the two, Spectre Dullahan controlled the debris surrounding him and launched them in the direction of the two.

Though the first few attacks could be blocked, the number of Debris sent flying by Spectre Dullahan kept increasing, eventually overwhelming the two.

"Bastard!" Glenn coldly yelled.

Who would have thought that even after like this, they still couldn't get a definite advantage over Cade and Spectre Dullahan?

" You.. it seems it is time for us to stop playing around."

The cold look in Gran's eyes grew stronger, and Glenn could only nod at the words of his partner.

Gran suddenly opened its mouth, where its jaw seemed to be widening and swallowed Glenn whole.

But the next thing that happened completely shocked Cade.

Gran's body started to shine, and soon a twenty-meter-long Undead Snake monster appeared.

" Have you really forsaken your humanity.."

" Bah, I don't care anymore as long as I could kill you!"

Spatting something from his mouth, the venomous liquid seemed to corrode the air as it flew in an arc towards Spectre Dullahan!

"Pupu"

The venomous liquid splashed onto Spectre DUllahan's armor. A black smoke emerged from his armor as it had caught on fire. Moreover, a small corroded wound quickly appeared!

Cade felt a burst of fear. The Venom of Gran, who had fully turned into a mosnter, was extremely strong. Even with Spectre Dullahan's strong armor, it didn't fully negate the damage.

If before the two did only have the strength of Rank (V) Monster, now Cade could somehow feel despair as the enemy rose into Rank (VI) in the midst of battle.

' Damn it.. do I have no other choice.'

"Xia!!" Gran, who had now turned into an undead snake monster, obviously wouldn't give Cadee any opportunity to catch his breath as another Splashing Venom immediately flew towards Spectre Dullahan!

"Beng!!"

Dirt flew everywhere as the ground was smashed. The Undead Snake's body full of scales had an incredibly terrifying pouncing strength. If it hit Spectre Dullahan and followed up with a Coiling Snake, it would signify the end of this fight.

Spectre Dullahan consecutively Dashed away from Gran's attacks. His two bluish eyes rigidly stared at the undead snake's every move. Occasionally, he would launch his own attack.

Still, it was a bit hard to break through the scale's hard defense.

" Hahahah, what a laughable effort! Now dance, we will dance throughout the moonlight!" Gran mocked.

Despite that, Gran also didn't have that much of an easy time. He still had a hard time controlling his new power, and it was hard to finish Spectre Dullahan in a few moves.

Cade stared at Gran and thought about what best solution he could do. But then, suddenly, a ruthless grin appeared on his face.

Because he heard the sound of Grigory ringing in his ear:

' Cade, the evolution process had been finished.'
