Although Ainz took a strike made with all of Roberdyck’s strength, he did not react with pain as expected. Roberdyck followed up his attack, reaching out with his bare hand.
“「Cure Moderate Wounds」!”
The healing spell was targeted at Ainz. When exposed to healing-type magic, undead would take damage instead. However, like the attack spell Arche cast earlier, it vanished uselessly against an invisible wall.
“Ahhhhh!”
Imina tensed her bowstring as she cried out. Then—she loosed. Although Roberdyck was next to Ainz, she was not nearly bad enough to actually hit him. Rather, at this range, there was no way she could miss.
Yet—the arrows struck Ainz, and fell to the ground without doing any damage whatsoever.
Ainz vanished.
It was the same tactic as earlier.
“Teleportation!”
“Not quite.”
As expected, the voice came from behind.
“I—”
Before Roberdyck could finish, Ainz’s hand gently settled on Imina’s shoulder. There was no hint of enmity in that gesture.
However, it had a telling effect. All the strength in her body vanished, and she slumped to the ground. Although her mind was fully functional and conscious, her body felt like a puddle of immobile, insensate slime.
“What did you do to her?”
Roberdyck asked his question in a trembling voice, as his eyes went from Imina to Ainz, who stood by her side.
“Was that a surprise? It’s nothing special.”
Ainz proceeded to explain in such a way as to break Roberdyck’s spirit.
“It was almost the same as just now. After casting a silent ‘Time Stop’ I moved over here and cast the same spell I used on that man, ‘Touch of Undeath’. And then, I just touched her.”
The silence felt as though the space between them had been frozen. The sound of Roberdyck swallowing was exceptionally loud in comparison,
