Reborn as a Weak Earthling, I Became the Most Overpowered Mage Alive-Chapter 60: Ch : Match with Ice Queen

"Y-You defeated the guardian...who are you people? W-What are you doing?"

The guard asked in a shocked voice as he watched Andrew, Seraphina, and Clara head toward the temple they had been guarding.

All their lives, the guards had been told that they were the last line of defence against a sealed monster, and they had guarded the temple. But now that the monster had been defeated, there was no longer a reason to head to the temple, right?...

"I found it. This is a relic, right?"

Clara held the wristband up in the air, and the divine air around it made the guard let out a soft sigh in recognition.

"The god’s relic...? Why is it here...no, more importantly...are you all chosen by god to come here and help us?"

The guard asked as he was helped back up onto his feet by his companion. They were all caught off-guard by the relic.

"Ummm...maybe..."

Clara answered in a confused voice, not sure how to take it. But Andrew was much more confident and took over for her.

"We are tasked by the gods to collect her relics and restore the order in this world on their behalf. Please keep it a secret since news of this getting out can cause a lot of problems for us."

The guard immediately nodded. He looked ready to do anything Andrew had asked of him, including helping him out.

"O-Of course. I will make sure no one knows. A-Also, there is a gathering of all the people who want to go against the queen but have no way to. I-If you are interested, please come to the Angel’s Pub tonight. We can discuss what to do there."

The guard told Andrew before he helped others back.

"What are we going to do? Are we going to take those words at face value? What if this is a trap?"

Clara asked as she walked over to Andrew. And usually, he would have been worried as well, but not this time. Mainly because he had a secret weapon.

"No, it’s fine. That guard was telling the truth. He is in a rebellion."

At least, that’s what his information said. And Andrew was willing to believe the system’s information.

Clara did not say anything after that and was willing to trust him.

"Let’s get the last relic. The potion has boosted me a lot. I don’t think we will have a problem at the last site."

He told the pair around him, and they nodded. And just as Andrew expected, the last temple was no match for him.

They were done in under an hour, and it was time for them to start heading back.

"Finally. Do you think Emperor and Lilianna are done on their side? If not, then should we help them out-?"

She paused mid-speech and looked in front of her with a startled face. An equally startled face looked back at her before the owner of the face reacted.

Andrew’s barrier saved Clara’s life as ice collided with it and shattered.

"You...what are you doing here...? Did you get the crown...? Tsk, hand it over to me."

Queen stood in front of them. Her eyes flashed as she looked at the crown in Clara’s hand, and Clara clutched it closer to her chest.

"No way-! Do you have any idea how much we had to suffer for it? I am not handing it over."

Ice began to form around Queen’s form at the rejection. She was not handling it well at all.

"I will not warn you again. That crown is my gift to Park Minso. If you get in my way, then you all will be disposed of as well. Are you still going to not hand it over?"

She asked in a calm voice that barely held back her rage. She looked ready to explode any second.

But Clara only wrapped her arms around the crown before putting it in her inventory.

"Sorry, but we got it first, so it’s ours now. You will not get your hands on it."

Seraphina paused, and her face went blank.

"I see. In that case, I guess I have no choice but to beat you up and get the crown that way. It will not take that long."

She declared before she rushed toward them at a fast speed. Andrew’s eyes immediately went toward her skill window.

’Tsk, she’s level 17 already?’

It was a massive jump in her level compared to his, which barely moved. It was clear that she had been doing nothing but focusing on leveling up.

And yet, the initial difference in their levels was not something she could overcome so easily at this stage.

"Clara, stay back. You are at a disadvantage against her."

Andrew reminded Clara, and she nodded. She rushed back, and Queen’s path was blocked by Seraphina instead.

A blade made of ice clashed with Seraphina’s own before it shattered.

"Tsk, and who is this? Another loser in your party who does not know her place? Fine, you can all die together."

Queen declared before she used all her power in her final attack. However, there was too much of a level difference between her and Seraphina.

Even without skills, Seraphina had her stats and knowledge of combat. She had fought more than her share of ice mages, so she focused on dodging and attacking when the queen’s guard was down.

"Tsk, how does being frozen feel...."

Queen asked, only to be grabbed by her throat and thrown back. Before she could recover, Seraphina had her lying under her feet.

"If you are going to brag, then at least make yourself worthy of it. You lack both power and technique. But I have to admit that you do have potential, at least."

That was high praise coming from Seraphina of all people. But Queen took it the wrong way and gave her an angry glare.

"Do it-! Kill me and be done with it already."
