The magic circle that the Horseman of Death is creating spanned to a diameter of fifty meters. Levin Cloud is carefully observing as the Horseman of Death does not want to get bothered. Any being that is considered living will suddenly die when it touches the area of the magic circle as their life force is sucked away immediately.
"I cannot see it perfectly. I must send the image to Adrian." Levin Cloud stated as he needed to find a way to get a full view of the magic circle since he cannot read runes like Adrian.
In order to see the whole magic circle, he needed to slowly transfer from dead tree to dead tree until he is about ten meters away from the magic circle. Once he became close, it was still blurry which is why he needed to carefully stretch his body from the dead tree in order for the Horseman of Death to not notice.
"There! I can see all of the things. Sending the picture to the group chat for them to see." Levin Cloud stated as he slowly retracted back to the dead tree, but it was too late.
Levin Cloud made sure to pick the dead tree that the Horseman of Death is looking away from to minimize his presence, but it seems that the horseman has eyes on the back of his head. The moment that Levin Cloud is about to return back inside of the dead tree, the Horseman of Death suddenly slowly rotated its head to its back and looked directly at Levin Cloud.
Levin Cloud tried playing it off like he is just an extension of the dead tree, but the Horseman of Death finally saw that he had a soul. The moment the Horseman of Death could see the powerful soul that is brimming with great holy brilliance, it suddenly spoke just one world but sent chills down Levin Cloud's spine.
"Sa..cri..fice!" The Horseman of Death stated with a terrifying tone.
Levin Cloud immediately knew of the danger and immediately retracted away from the dead tree to transfer to another one but the trunk of the dead tree he is fused to suddenly got sliced cleanly. Thankfully, his body is still intact as it is not affected unless the whole tree is obliterated.
"Nice try, skull face!" Levin Cloud stated as he escaped to the other dead trees. When the Horseman of Death realized that the brilliant soul it wanted to reap cannot be killed by slicing, the Horseman of Death resorted to a more brute approach. The next tree that Levin Cloud entered suddenly exploded into splinters as the Horseman of Death used its magic power to make it turn to dust.
Levin Cloud's body suddenly materialized out of thin air as he managed to safely exit the dead tree in time but that also means he got injured in the process. He did not know what to do as he suddenly felt a great power locking onto him and is trying to pull him towards the Horseman of Death that is not moving from its location.
Luckily, Levin Cloud managed to touch another dead tree along the way and hide inside it. He wanted to transfer to another one but the current one he is latched on also exploded into splinters. This time, Levin Cloud did not detach himself as he knew that he would just repeat the same cycle. He fully accepted the damage this time, but he did not expect that it would be fatal.
Due to the fatal damage, his passive skill got activated and he exploded into vines as well and seeped into the ground. When he managed to collect all parts of his body, he did not resurface immediately but buried towards the raid party. He needed to inform them of one crucial thing.
Levin Cloud managed to find out that the Horseman of Death wanted a sacrifice and is not even leaving the vicinity of the magic circle it created. He wanted to know if it is planning something somehow, but he needs the help of others to see. He slowly recovered his health along the way to the raid party.
"The magic circle is not familiar to me as it is not using runes affiliated with spirit magic." Faust stated.
"It is also not using the elven language." Anastacia added.
"It is a language used in the far north and can only be read by those that have special blood." Adrian stated as he suddenly appeared along with three women NPCs that is more powerful than the guild masters of the three guilds.
Adrian then explained to them the origin of the Three War Mothers. He then explained to them that the Three War Mothers will be joining them for this raid and some reinforcements from the north as well. When the guild masters heard of this, they are surprised but delighted as warriors from the northern continent are very powerful.
"The magic circle is basically some sort of sacrificial magic circle to bring forth something to the world. What the Horseman of Death wants to bring forth? Even the three War Mothers do not know as their tribe is not really into summoning gods and whatever." Adrian explained.
"I also saw that the Horseman of Death did not want to leave the magic circle despite wanting me greatly as a sacrifice. It seems that the magic circle that it created will lose effect once it leaves but I am not sure on that part." Levin Cloud stated.
"Well, we can test the waters now on that theory. So, who has knockback skills that can make a raid boss fly away by at least ten meters?" Adrian asked as Levin Cloud's observations are also on point.
A few people raised their hands while they suddenly needed to think of a plan as they shared the effects of the knockback skills. They needed to buy time for the Northern Alliance to come and make sure that the Horseman of Death does not leave.
