TL: Woah been a long time since I made a TL note at the start of the chapter :P. Anyways, here's your third chapter of the day! I know there's a cliff hanger at the end but you'll have to wait for tmrw to get the next chapter :(

Anyways, many thanks to all of the translators and editors involved!

"Don't worry, Fan Shu City's number one Mage definitely won't let you down!"

Dong Cheng Yue was exuding self-confidence.

I grasped my Frost Rain Sword tightly since after Matcha, the next target to be attacked would be me. Preparing to bear the brunt of the assault, I took a defensive stance while holding my sword horizontally in front of my chest. Bring it on punks!

......

"Shua, shua, shua......"

One after another, chilly shadows swept past me. The charging Hun Tribe Horsemen no longer targeted the flying Matcha since I had attracted all their aggro; thereby becoming the primary target of the enemy assault. More than ten horsemen jostled each other as they rammed against me. Luckily, my strength stat was high enough to hold them back... especially since I couldn't retreat even if I wanted to. Gritting my teeth, I faced their continuous assault all by myself and due to [Charge], I was stunned for 1.7 seconds. However, Yuzi Chengshuo and Darling Duck didn't use [Therapy] to cure my stun status. After all, they were very smart and knew that main danger wasn't right now but later!

[Arc Moon Slash] and [Flame Blade] were unleashed on me!

"Keng, keng, keng......"

Sparks and damage numbers flew in every direction as my Nebula Armor took hits repeatedly.... It was truly heart-stopping....

764!
901!
774!

......

At this time, Darling Duck and Yuzi Chengshuo both started to use their healing skills to bring my health back up to a reasonable level. If they hadn't, [Arc Moon Slash] and [Rapid Flame Scorch] together would have probably insta-killed me!

"They fired the big guns~" Lin Wan Er joked.

I held my Frost Rain sword tightly and started attacking with my [Combo] followed by [Strength of a Thousand Men]. Since the plan required me to take the brunt of the assault, I might as well attack as much as possible. Plus, even though it was not much, I was still wearing Man Luo's Ring which provided me 1% lifesteal. As I attacked, slivers of green light fell on me, showing the particle effects of lifesteal—

+11!
+7!
+12!
+9!

Something was better than nothing... Although, one can imagine that if a player managed to stack 10% or maybe even 20% lifesteal, that would be pretty unbelievable. If that player's attack was high enough and their defense was strong enough, they would be able to tank bosses without needing potions.

Behind me, Dong Cheng Yue raised her staff and cast [Pillar of Fire and Ice], enveloping a 5×5 area with it. Line after line of damage numbers flew out. The amount of damage magic attacks could do to heavy armor type monsters was truly frightening—-

1337!
1426!
1481!

......

Following up quickly, Dong Cheng Yue raised her left hand and bolts of electricity appeared, twisting between her slender fingers with a crackling sound. A moment later, she shot a bolt of electricity at the first horseman in front of me. The skill immediately found a second target, then bounced to a third, and so on. Again, line after line of numbers flew out—-
