An Extra’s POV

Asher didn't have any Active Skills—Magic or otherwise.

That was because he simply didn't need one.

As someone who had extensive knowledge of Magic, as well as a very fast growth in terms of Levels—and by extension, Stats—there was no need for them.

He knew the Spells, and so his offensive and defensive abilities were high anyway.

With [Quick Casting], he could cast a Spell in a second, and with [Basic Elemental Affinity], he could utilize any of the basic elements.

His [Magic Knowledge] Skill allowed him to analyze his opponent's Magic Spells or Skills to a particular extent.

It also boosted the abilities of his own Spells.

With all these factors combined, Asher had always been confident in any fight he wound up in.

He had enough power and intelligence to emerge victorious.

Well… none of that confidence could be seen here.

Breathing raggedly, he clenched both of his fists and concentrated his Mana, his eyes turning a bright green.

"With this Sacred Word, I summon…" He muttered, causing more Mana to gather around him like a whirlwind.

Utilizing all the cards on his side, and also thinking of how best to survive longer when fighting his opponent, this was the best Asher could come up with.

"… Elemental Guardians!"

That very instant, four entities emerged from the excess Mana that swirled around Asher's body.

There was one who was bright red and orange, with traces of yellow. It was made completely out of flames, and it looked like a warrior with a flaming sword and burning armor.
