When Ria, Emola, and Nirkad activated their Beyond, the silhouettes of various creatures appeared above them. They were fire elementals.

Ria had The most powerful Beyond. Her body emanated white flames, and she looked like a small star capable of burning anything. Earlier she didn't want to use this technique because she was afraid of accidentally killing Wain, but now the situation was drastically different.

They were about to attack, but suddenly Wain's aura changed. Ria and the others felt an indescribable pressure. It was as if they encountered an invincible creature that was setting the boundaries of its own reality.

As Wain slowly plummeted downward, a massive amount of Soul Essence appeared beside him. This energy swept over him like a hurricane and penetrated his glabella.

Then his appearance began to change.

Wain's hair turned gray, and an impenetrable black patch appeared over his eyes. It was impossible to remove or see anything through this blindfold. A massive gray robe and sparse symbols on it seemed next. Simple boots appeared on his feet as if he were a hermit mage. 

The final change was the two seals on the backs of his hands. One of the seals bore the mark of a broken clock face, and the other showed a shattered mirror.

"What is that?" Emola asked cautiously.

She was shocked by what was happening. At this moment, Wain's aura was much more powerful even than when he used the Cursed Swordsman. Emola and Nirkad began to tremble with fear. They were facing an opponent that was powerless to defeat.

"I don't know. But we have not the right to retreat! Calm down and stand in the rearguard. I'll attack, and you cover me." Ria said excitedly.

Emola and Nirkad nodded.

"What a strange feeling..." Wain muttered.

Whoooosh.

Suddenly Ria turned into a fiery flash and instantly got to Wain. She was moving at her best because she expected Wain could react to any of her attacks.

Bam.

Wain, however, was unable to do so. Ria's fiery fist slammed into his stomach like a hammer and threw him more than thirty meters away.

Wain didn't want to get hit, but he had no other choice. The reason was that he was blind. Wain didn't understand how to fight when he couldn't see his enemy. Moreover, he wasn't yet used to his new powers.

'When I first used the Cursed Swordsman, it was much easier. I was originally proficient in swordsmanship at a certain level, so I was able to fight right away. However, now I'm blind and don't fully understand the power I got...' Wain pondered as he flew away.

Even though Ria's blow was much more powerful than before, Wain was not seriously injured. The cloak had considerable defensive properties, but in fact, this cloak was ordinary.

It was all about the symbols on it. When Ria hit Wain, several of the signs disappeared. It was like a protective barrier that had a certain charge. When Ria hit Wain a certain number of times, his defense would drop significantly.

However, despite the protective symbols, Ria's blow made Wain squirm in pain.

"Attack him!" Ria shouted loudly, and many fireballs appeared next to Emola.

She waved her hand, and they flew at Wain like projectiles. The fireballs were enhanced by Emola's Beyond and could burn most First Chronicle creatures.

Nirkad's arsenal didn't include long-range attacks, but once he activated Beyond, he could pass his flames to someone else. Nirkad thus greatly enhanced Emola's attacks and constantly replenished her energy supply.

Wain heard the sounds of fireballs flying at him, and so he stepped aside but was immediately hit in the chest by Ria. Wain's face contorted in pain, and he flew aside again.

"I thought you were much stronger, but I guess that was a false feeling. You're even weaker now than before. It looks pathetic." Ria said coldly and put her hands together.

The next moment it hit the ground, and there was a fiery explosion around her. Wain was within striking range, and his body was engulfed in white flames as hot as the sun.

'Damn, do I really have to fight relying on my servants, touch, and other senses? No, this is some kind of nonsense. The description of this form said that a blind mage could see the true essence of magic, so I should be able to do something similar.' Wain thought.

He bounced to the side and concentrated.

In a few seconds, three white dots appeared in pitch blackness. One of them was much closer than the other two.

Wain smiled. He knew he'd done the right thing.

The big dot was Ria, while Emola and Nirkad were small dots. However, this was not enough for Wain. He thought it was the minimum he was capable of.

'I can't see the world around me in its usual form, but I can see energy fluctuations and Soul Essence.' Wain pondered, and suddenly the white dots began to proliferate.

Wain looked at Ria, Emola, and Nirkad as if through an X-ray, but it was slightly different. He couldn't see their bones, but he could see the energy in their bodies. It was like thousands of white threads that pulsed constantly.

Moreover, Wain also saw energy emanating from the white flames and the outlines of their bodies, and even the clouds beneath them.

'I see, so I'm not completely blind, though no, I can see the energy and nothing more. That's enough, though. Energy is everywhere.' Wain thought.

Whoooosh.

Ria approached Wain, but this time he easily dodged her blow. Wain turned around and struck Ria in the stomach with the palm of his hand at lightning speed. Strange gray-blue energy came away from that blow.

Ria threw up a mouthful of blood and flew aside like a projectile. She lost her balance, so her body flipped from one side to the other until the momentum weakened.

This blow was powerful enough to cause her a hell of a lot of pain.

Wain looked at his hands, and just as he did, he saw a multitude of white threads.

'That's my power right there. At least it is part of it. But, using it for hand-to-hand combat is foolish. After all, this form is called Blind Sorcerer.' Wain thought and put his hands out in front of him.

The next moment a magical circle appeared in front of him, from which one massive gray arrow flew out. It instantly reached Emola and pierced her head.

Ria and Nirkad were shocked. They hadn't expected that the situation could change dramatically in one second.

Emola's body fell down, and blood slowly trickled down from the hole in her head. She could not be saved. Emola died the moment the arrow flew out of the magic circle.

Wain also saw the energy inside Emola go out.

He smiled and muttered, "Great, I've solved one problem. I didn't expect the arrow to be so powerful."

Like the palm strike, the arrow had no attribute despite having a lot of energy. It was unique energy that Wain could use while the third form was active.

'I have yet to learn how to fight with this form. I have a huge arsenal that I cannot use all of yet.' Thought Wain and waved his hand.

Behind him appeared three small magical circles from which flew blue beams. They were aimed at Nirkad.

"No! Run!" Shouted Ria, but nothing could be changed. Nirkad's fate was sealed.

Three beams pierced Nirkad's body in three places: his stomach, chest, and head. He did not have time to react, and just like Emola, with empty eyes, he fell.

"You are strong. However, I was right. It is a disappointment. I expected to fight a worthy opponent again. But, each and every one of you is nothing more than nothing. It was a great mistake to come here and hinder me!" Proclaimed Wain and spread his arms out to his sides.

A menacing aura began to emanate from him the next moment, and a huge amount of energy appeared beside him.

The energy gradually transformed into two triangular-shaped prisms. Their tips glowed brightly, and two thick and massive beams headed toward Ria.

She frowned, and the flames at her feet intensified. Ria became faster and attacked Wain furiously. She didn't expect the situation to take such a terrible turn.

Ria was furious that Wain had killed Emola and Nirkad. These two were very dear to her.

However, when she was about to attack Wain, she saw his evil smirk. At that moment, the rage that clouded her mind was replaced by a boundless fear that bound her heart.

Wain waved his hand, and dozens of energy swords appeared around Ria. Then he clenched his hand into a fist, and the swords moved.

They pierced Ria's body many times, leaving no chance for her to survive. Blood gushed from her mouth, and her eyes gradually became empty.

Whooosh.

The next moment two blue and one pink soul flew toward Wain's body. They hovered in the air in front of Wain and exploded. A large amount of Soul Essence entered his body.

Wain smiled contentedly and canceled the form.

As he fought Ria, he thought he might even die. For the sake of victory, he used everything he had, but in a way, he was lucky that suddenly the books flew up.

Wain wasn't sure that he could have killed every one of his enemies without the third form so easily.

As the cloak and eye patch disappeared, Wain suddenly felt a burning pain all over his body.
