In short, this item is better than nothing, at least for Roa at this stage.
If it were just for the sake of it being a World-Class Item, it wouldn't be necessary.
Conversely, if he lets things develop, the profits Roa could gain from it would be considerable.
Firstly, information. Roa can blackmail Ainz for information, trying to raise the price to see if he can exchange it for a second Tenth-Tier Magic. Even if he can't get a Tenth-Tier Magic, he can still trade for good items.
After figuring all this out, Roa's eyes brightened, and he quickly made a decision.
He will sit back and watch the situation develop, profiting from it. After it's done, he will use a tiger to devour a wolf, further reducing Clementine's power.
When he adapts to this world, he will strike Clementine with a thunderous blow, directly forcing her to fight him, and then learn from her.
If possible, Roa wouldn't mind kicking someone when they're down and making a big profit.
As Roa was thinking, a servant knocked on the door.
Opening the door, the servant smiled and said to Roa, "Guest, please come down for breakfast."
Roa nodded slightly, tidied up his clothes in front of the mirror, and prepared to walk out.
Roa had long replaced his apprentice mage robes. Now, he was wearing a dark blue robe, a green shirt, with a handsome face and a high nose bridge. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. The young man had fair skin, and the green shirt made him look somewhat slender.
Roa's temperament is usually more gentle. If Roa were to wear a jade pendant at his waist, it would correspond to the ancient Chinese saying: "A modest gentleman, as gentle as jade."
Although he doesn't usually say it, Roa pays attention to his appearance.
The servant followed behind Roa, and after Roa finished breakfast, he said, "Yesterday's events were significant. The Adventurers' Guild has some questions they would like to ask you. If possible, please don't refuse."
Roa nodded slightly, wiping his mouth. He wasn't too surprised by this outcome.
There wasn't much to say about it; he could just deal with it casually.
However, when he was actually called over, Roa keenly felt the seriousness on their faces.
Adventurers' Guild, Guild Master's Office.
On the ground lay a well-preserved Eight-Edge Assassin Bug. The Guild Master's face was filled with a friendly smile when he saw Roa.
However, Roa found the smile somewhat forced.
The Guild Master paced back and forth, saying with some worry, "This is a monster we've never seen before. Just looking at this strange shape makes one feel uneasy."
At this point, the Guild Master looked at Roa again and said, "So, could you tell me the whole story from beginning to end?"
Roa shrugged. He didn't really want to tell the Guild Master anything, as there were many things he shouldn't know. Even if the Guild Master knew, what could he do? Even if he revealed all the information about the Eight-Edge Assassin Bug, could they defend against it?
The difference in strength was too great; it was beyond what the simple natives of this world could contend with.
Seeing Roa's perfunctory attitude, the Guild Master's bitter smile deepened.
Unable to get any useful information from Roa, he sighed and asked the question he was most concerned about: "Um, will something like this happen at the Shining Golden Pavilion again in the future?"
The Shining Golden Pavilion is the most important landmark in this city, so it can't afford to be damaged. This time, the Shining Golden Pavilion commissioned the Adventurers' Guild to investigate the cause and see if they could eliminate the source to prevent such things from happening again in the future.
Roa knew exactly what the Guild Master was thinking, but he just smiled faintly and said, "Well, I can't give you a definite guarantee. But, I don't think this will happen again in the future, so please rest assured."
The Guild Master's expression eased slightly. He looked at the body on the ground, then at Roa, and suddenly reached out and shook Roa's hand solemnly, "We're counting on you from now on, Lord Roa."
"Yes, it's nothing." Roa responded casually. After talking for a while, Roa left the Adventurers' Guild.
Roa wasn't in a hurry to act. It would be too conspicuous to act during the day.
At night, the sky was completely dark. Roa floated in mid-air, and magic began to turn into waves, sweeping in all directions from Roa's center.
This was just a reconnaissance method. Soon, Roa got the result he wanted.
Roa's lips curled up, and his figure turned into an arrow, flying into the distance.
Deep in the cemetery stood a tall building. Roa didn't hide his figure, floating openly in mid-air.
His green shirt looked so conspicuous under the moonlight, and his pale golden pupils were like fireflies in the night. Roa's eyes were like torches, and he instantly noticed the person hiding in the hall, the blonde woman who was standing outside looking up.
She hadn't left. To be precise, she planned to act alone in a day or two, but she didn't expect someone to fly so blatantly in mid-air, especially at this time.
Clementine licked her slightly dry lips, and her somewhat morbid eyes became crazy. She began to look at Roa, and Clementine said, "Oh, little brother, wandering around here so late, aren't you afraid of running into bad people?"
Roa ignored Clementine and shouted below, "The person hiding in the hall, aren't you coming out yet?"
However, the next moment, a stream of green liquid shot towards Roa like an arrow.
"[Acid Javelin]"
Khajiit, whose identity had been exposed by Roa, walked out from behind the hall with a sinister expression. He held a black magic staff in his hand, with a black light blooming at the top, covered with a viscous green liquid. There was no doubt that the person who attacked Roa was the guy in front of him.
Naturally, Roa wouldn't let this guy hit him. He just tilted his head slightly, and the green beam was easily dodged by Roa.
Khajiit wasn't too surprised by his failed sneak attack. After all, the other party had called out his hiding place, indicating that he had already been wary. It was normal for him to be able to dodge.
Roa was still floating in mid-air, with a troubled look on his face. The young man said with some difficulty, "This isn't good. If my clothes get dirty, I'll be quite troubled, because these are clothes I made myself."
Khajiit's mouth twitched. He didn't expect Roa to say such a thing, but it didn't matter. He stood behind Clementine and said to Roa in the air with a sinister expression, "Since you've been discovered, there's no way around it. I can only leave you here. Blame it on your bad luck."
However, before he could finish speaking, he saw Clementine rushing towards Roa's location with a grin.
"Damn it." Khajiit cursed. He had originally planned to cooperate with Clementine to leave Roa here.
Honestly, Khajiit was also somewhat wary of Roa.
The fact that he could use flight skills meant that he was at least a second-tier caster, and his posture clearly indicated that he was coming for them.
This made Khajiit feel a sense of "Could my plan have been exposed?" If possible, he wanted to capture this guy alive and interrogate him.
But Clementine's reckless behavior completely disrupted his plan. Now, he could only follow Clementine's pace.
Khajiit cursed in his heart, but the staff in his hand was raised high again, aiming at Roa, who was floating in mid-air and unmoved, and chanted, "[Acid Javelin]!"
Three more green beams turned into streams of light, attacking Roa. This time, the attack was even faster.
These three [Acid Javelins] were specially cast to prevent Roa from escaping.
However, Roa had come here to cause trouble for the two of them, so naturally he wouldn't run away.
Roa's eyelids drooped. At this moment, Clementine had rushed to Roa's side. She opened her mouth, revealing sharp teeth, and grinned at Roa, "Little brother, let sister play with you. Hmm, your face is so handsome. Can sister study it carefully? Let's start by tearing off your face."
Clementine is a warrior, someone who has entered the realm of heroes. Her combat power is naturally good, and her close combat skills are also quite good. Of course, it depends on who her opponent is.
Roa's speed was very fast. In almost two or three breaths, she had rushed to Roa's face, crossing this considerable distance. As the distance got closer, the smile on her face became thicker, as if she could see herself tearing the other party's flesh and blood in the next moment.
The feeling made Clementine feel her blood boil and her spirit excited just thinking about it.
But the next moment, her original smile froze.
Because a strong and powerful hand had grabbed her neck, the powerful force almost made her unable to breathe.
A look of horror flashed in Clementine's eyes. She didn't even notice Roa's movements.
You must know that her five senses are far stronger than others, and she is very good at sensing danger, so even the experts of the Windflower Scripture who are specially responsible for espionage operations can't approach her without her noticing.
But at this moment, the young man in front of her disappeared in front of her, without giving her any time to react.
Being grabbed by the neck with one hand is undoubtedly a very embarrassing thing, but this is not the time to think about these things. After the horror, she did not retreat but advanced, and her hands grabbed fiercely towards Roa's face.
Clementine's ten fingers were wrapped in steel. With her own strength, she could penetrate and shatter a thick rock. Even heroes would not dare to take such an attack.
The grin reappeared on her face. Although she didn't know how the other party approached her, it didn't prevent her from tearing him apart.
"Oh, little girl, you're very irritable."
Roa's pale golden pupils stared at the somewhat neurotic girl in front of him. Looking into those golden eyes, Clementine instantly felt a sense of oppression.
The hideous smile also stopped at this moment, but the movements in her hands did not stop at all.
"Alas."
The young man sighed, and with a sudden force, the powerful force pulled her body all the way into the air. The original action of clawing at Roa also seemed to have suffered some kind of heavy blow, and her arms were bent in an extremely strange posture. A piercing pain stimulated Clementine's nerves.
"Damn it, what did you do?" Clementine shouted, but her eyes were already filled with some panic.
It was not until this time that she realized that she seemed to have provoked someone who was not easy to provoke.
Flying magic is not really about soaring in the sky without restraint. The faster the flying speed and the higher the altitude, the more magic power is consumed.
However, in the blink of an eye, Roa took Roa across hundreds of meters in the air. Looking down from the air, he could already see the entire city.
The height did not stop, and Roa did not stop until he reached a height of nearly a thousand meters.
Roa let go, and the distance between the two was separated by an invisible airflow.
This height is already a very terrifying height.
You must know that the world's first iron tower, the Eiffel Tower, is only 330 meters high, which is equivalent to 108 floors of ordinary buildings.
At this moment, Roa had already taken Clementine to a distance of nearly a thousand meters.
If Roa let go at this moment, the other party would experience the thrill of free-falling from a thousand meters in the air.
However, at the moment when Clementine's body came into contact with the ground, the impact of the terrifying speed would instantly shatter the bones of Clementine's whole body, and the flesh and blood would be crushed into minced meat. Even the hardest skull on her body would be like a watermelon smashed by a hammer, torn apart.
No one can withstand such an impact.
Even Roa, who has not entered the dragon form, would be injured if Roa suddenly did this.
Clementine also has the skill [Flight], but with her magic power, she can't afford this kind of consumption at all. At this moment, Clementine is being supported by an invisible airflow, so she is spared from falling down. Looking at the unreachable ground under her feet, she just wanted to say something, but when she raised her eyes, she saw Roa's handsome face with interest.
Roa slowly said, "What will happen if I throw you down from here?"
