The robed individual who was giving off the aura of a rank 10 powerhouse turned toward Shin and his friends. Immediately his identity became clear. It was a lich and probably the one who was formerly the magus who had created this place.
But during his life, he was just a rank 9 magus and according to the available information, he died while he was trying to reach the rank of 10 and had failed in the process.
But now, it looked like he was actually sucessful but not in the way he had hoped for.
This was actually a massive problem for Ren and his party. Even though he and Shuzu both were rank 9 and quite strong for this realm, they had reached this level very very recently.
And the gap between a rank 9 and a rank 10 was much wider compared to any other rank. So even if this lich here was the weakest existence of rank 10 and Shin was a hero with combat power to defeat people stronger than him, this battle was still not going to be easy.
