Chapter 342 - 319: If You Don’t Go to Hell, Who Will?
Amberser always considered himself a scholar.
Even when he was an adventurer, he would never confront powerful enemies head-on.
One must have self-awareness; after faring so poorly for so long, it was clear he wasn’t meant for a protagonist’s life—no point in charging in recklessly.
Although Amberser now had the support of the Golden Throne and his personal combat strength could be considered at the peak of legend, given the chance, he still preferred to let others do the fighting.
When Melina charged, she knocked the stone giant off balance, causing it to topple to the ground, but that hardly did any damage.
The Knight Lance in Melina’s hands wasn’t ordinary either, but it only managed to scrape a bit of skin off the giant, with the chipped-off stone pieces not even as big as a fist.
The stone giant wasn’t stupid either; instead of getting up, it just rolled over.
This altar area wasn’t very large to begin with, and the stone giant’s roll covered most of it.
Amberser had wisely cleared the battlefield and promptly stood next to Zariel, expecting the stone giant probably wouldn’t attack its own master. Now, as expected, the stone giant ignored Amberser and rolled toward Melina.
Zariel glanced at Amberser and said mockingly, "It seems I was wrong; you are no warrior."
