Upon hearing those words, Robert suddenly felt an uneasy feeling.
"What did you do?" He asked in an anxious tone.
"Are you an idiot? Why would I tell about my spell effect to the enemy?" Lydia said in disdain.
Before Robert could ask further, Lydia smiled widely and spoke in a cold voice.
"Space Bind."
In a second, the space bend at a weird angle, formed into invisible chains, and started restricting his movement.
But Robert didn't get anxious, though. Instead, he let out a deep sigh and started to laugh.
But that laughter gave a chill to both Lydia and Charles.
It was a burst of laughter, filled with pure evil and wickedness!
Robert's face suddenly started to even paler and appeared more like a dead body's one!
'He must be one of those four chaotic churches' members!' Charles's face turned cold as he hid his body behind the debris and started to think.
'What is the name of the chaotic church organization that specialized in necromancy? Hmm, I think it's called Grim Verdicts. They are specialized in soul capturing, curses, and undead summoning. I also read in a book that they have some relation with the Destiny Conquerors, but it hasn't been confirmed.' Charles recalled the information about the Grim Verdicts and soon turned his gaze towards the battle.
"Kill her." At that moment, a bone-chilling voice emerged from Robert's face as he turned around and smiled wickedly.
Simultaneously, the black-hooded skeleton suddenly raised its scythe and slashed it towards Lydia's head at a fast speed.
'Danger!'
Lydia hurriedly cast her teleportation spell on herself with an alarmed look on her face as she disappeared from there and soon appeared twenty feet away from Robert.
In the meantime, the scythe's tip made a whooshing noise, split the space itself, and soon appeared behind Lydia.
Before she could understand the situation, a sharp pain appeared behind her back, followed by a flesh-ripping sound!
Slash!
The scythe made a clean horizontal cut above her waist. Although it was just a superficial cut, that wound was more than enough for the scythe to corrode her flesh!
"Argh." She let out a muffling noise and then stared fiercely at Robert.
"Very good, Charles." She said in an icy tone, raised her hand, pointed her forefinger at the black-cloaked skeleton, and then cast her attack spell.

This time, the space around her began to bend before forming into an invisible knife and soon moved towards the cloaked skeleton's skull.
In a blink, the invisible knife's tip appeared in front of the skeleton's forehead area and directly collided with it!
A moment later, only the headless skeleton stood beside Robert and started to trip.
Then, the headless skeleton fell on the ground and disappeared from there.
But there was no happiness on Lydia's face at all.
'I'm starting to feel numbness from my backside.' She touched her back in a hurry and felt no sensation at all.
Not only that, but some black energy also entered her bloodstream through the wound and started to weaken her movement!
'How did he become a Rank-3 Black Wizard in such a short amount of time? Moreover, where is the Series-A Artifact? Why isn't he using his fire magic?' Questions whirled in her mind.
Soon, Lydia dismissed those thoughts as she saw more skeletons started to pop out from the surrounding debris like worms and were gathering around Robert.
'This is troublesome.' A grim look appeared on her face as she took out a small white pebble from her personal storage space and was about to throw it at Robert but stopped!
No, she suddenly forgot how to throw the pebble!
At that moment, a purplish fire appeared inside her Inner World and started to devour her current thought!
On the other hand, Robert also noticed the sudden anomaly and acted.
First, he took out a grey-colored gem embedded bone staff from his space ring and pointed it towards Lydia.
A moment later, a bang sound echoed as a black ray of light came out from the bony staff and directly appeared in front of Lydia's forehead.
But before the black ray pierces through her head, she regained her sense and moved her left-hand's forefinger in a hurry.
The next instant, the space in front of her forehead began to bend in a curve-like angle and deflected the black ray towards the nearby debris!
It was also the place where Charles was currently hiding!
'F*ck!' He cursed at his damned luck and instantly rolled away from there.
At that moment, Robert and Lydia froze for a second and turned their heads towards the crimson-masked figure in confusion and puzzlement.
'Who is this guy? Why is he hiding here?' Lydia frowned a bit and soon noticed that her thinking ability started to degrade.
At that moment, a thought appeared in her mind.

'Could it be him? Is he the real Charles?'
But before she could think further, another purple flame appeared in her Inner World and erased her current thinking!
In the meantime, Charles stood up from the ground, raised his hand, and cast [Incinerate] spell on Lydia.
In a moment, a crimson ray appeared from Charles's forefinger and moved towards her chest at a fast speed.
At that exact moment, Lydia regained her thinking ability and used her spatial spell to deflect the attack!
Due to her interference, Charles's [Incinerate] spell suddenly made a U-turn and flew towards Robert!
Seeing this, both Charles and Robert became dumbfounded!
Thankfully, Robert's skeletons appeared in front of him and blocked the fire spell.
Once the incinerate spell disintegrated the skeletons, silence appeared in the area!
"She is using Space Deflection spell." Charles hurriedly warned Robert and then stared at Lydia warily.
'She is so strong. When I cast my [Fire Seed] spell on her, she managed to erase it from her Inner World. How did she do that?' He got confused.
'Did she already enter her Inner World?' He soon nodded his head as he thought of such a possibility.
'No wonder my mind spell didn't work on her. No, my [Burning Thought] spell is still working properly. Yes, when I cast the [Burning Thought] spell, it directly entered her mind and burned her current thought. But when I cast the [Fire Seed] spell on her, it did burn her current thought. But the [Fire Seed] spell suddenly disappeared.' A solemn look appeared on Charles's face as he fell into deep thoughts.
On the other hand, Robert controlled his undead skeletons and let them move near her.
At that moment, Lydia suddenly turned her gaze towards Charles and soon squinted her eyes.
She suddenly felt that this guy might be the real Charles!
'Moreover, that purple fire attacked my Inner World is not a normal one.' She instantly made up her mind and turned her full attention towards Charles.
Upon noticing her gaze, an ominous feeling appeared in his heart.
Without any hesitation, Charles activated his [Vision] skill and saw the future images of the next ten seconds.
Within a second, he completely grasped the future and directly took out the arcane card from his space ring.
'If I didn't act now, I will die!' Determination appeared on his face. At that moment, he also dismissed his crimson mask and stared at her coldly.
"You are the real Charles!" Lydia's voice turned eerie as she stared at in intensely and disappeared from there.

The next second, she directly appeared in front of him, raised her hand, and was about to cast her spatial spell.
But to her astonishment, hundreds of strong vines popped out from the ground and completely bound her body!
At that moment, Charles had already pulled out his Ember Pistol, turned the hammer, and squeezed the trigger.
BANG!
A crimson bullet appeared from the muzzle and instantly destroyed her head like a watermelon.
"What a terrifying enemy," Charles muttered in a grave tone and soon froze.
At that moment, an unimaginable miracle appeared in front of his eyes!
He saw Lydia's left hand suddenly rose upward and gave him a thumbs-up!
'What the hell-? Why did the vision skill show me different images?' His whole body stiffened upon watching this strange creepy scene.
'No, I think I missed something important. If I'm not wrong, those future vision images might come from the same timeline. Wait… Could it be I changed the timeline when I killed her using the Ember Pistol and created a new future in a short amount of time?'
Charles got goosebumps as he thought of such a possibility!
While he was in muse, he heard another gun sound from his right side!
With a wary look on his face, Charles turned his head and soon widened his eyes.
Shock appeared on his face!
Because what he saw was not a living Robert, but his headless corpse.
The headless Robert made an awkward dance and then fell on the ground with a loud thud!
A chill crept up to his spine as he took two more steps backward and turned his gaze towards the headless Lydia.
At that moment, the whole surroundings went silent.
The next instant, Lydia's splattered brain matters, bones, flesh, blood, eyes, teeth, ripped tongue started to move back from the debris and soon attached above her headless body!
Then, new flesh began to grow and soon formed into a familiar feminine face.
She opened her hazel eyes and soon looked at Charles with a twisted smile on her face.
"Nice to meet you, Charles," She said in a cold tone and touched those green vines.

At that moment, those green vines started to move on their own and started slithering towards Charles at an unimaginable speed!
'I lost control of those vines!' Charles turned his face solemn, cast the [Crimson Steps] spell on himself, and backed away.
Upon hearing those words, Robert suddenly felt an uneasy feeling.
"What did you do?" He asked in an anxious tone.
"Are you an idiot? Why would I tell about my spell effect to the enemy?" Lydia said in disdain.
