Loser System and Berserker Me Chapter 182: Do You Recognize Me

“Grandson…” The sudden emergence of the black-cloaked figure raised Miazova’s wariness to the max. “That fellow is a high shaman, a tough nut to crack.”

Similar to archmages, high shamans were extremely powerful mages. Where the Tibetan Empire had three powerful archmages, the Transoxania area only had a single high shaman.

All the countries and tribes here revered the high shaman, not daring to offend him lest he vanquish them from the face of the world. It didn’t help that most nations here comprised a single city, so the saying ‘an individual rivaling a nation’ was not an exaggeration here.

The high shaman may be powerful, but he’ll need time to kill the specters. That should buy us enough time to escape. Once we’re safe, we can slowly wear the high shaman down just like in the Iron Gate Pass…”
