085

Arcane magic that the Red Mage Tower boasts.

Superheated Hell.

Magic that deals with flames with a higher temperature than normal flames.

Those who have mastered that magic can freely manipulate blue flames estimated to be 1500℃.

“How long are you going to wait?”

Dahlia threw a blue fireball at me and asked.

A high-temperature fireball that burns the surrounding air and flies.

Thanks to the mysticism of the Red Magic Tower, a blue sphere whose proper name has not yet been revealed.

I flew to a position about 10 meters out of its hit range.

Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-!

Hit exactly where I was standing, a burning blue sphere.

Upon being hit, the surrounding area of ​​10 meters turns into a hell of flames.

It was truly enormous power.

‘… … You mean this hasn’t exhausted itself yet?’

The problem is that this is not Dahlia Salentia’s power.

If this woman puts her full effort, it will not be the level of a single small sphere flying, but the whole blue flames swirling behind her will attack me.

“Isn’t it enough to see the liver twice? I will go seriously next time.”

The blue flames surrounding Dahlia pulsated again.

It seemed to beat in sync with Dahlia’s heartbeat.

“I wish I could lighten up a little.”

“It’s tough.”

The blue sphere has flown a total of two times so far.

In other words, I had the opportunity to observe Dahlia’s arcane magic, superheat hell twice.

But unfortunately, I couldn’t observe Dahlia’s magic ceremony.

The reason is simple.

The condition for me to observe the magic ceremony is to ‘see with my own eyes the center of the magic ceremony within 4 meters’.

With this act, you can check the fragmentary magic formula of the magic formula.

The actions overlap, and when the structure of all magic formulas is explained, I can use the magic or interfere.

The problem is that the shooting range of Superheat Hell easily exceeds 10 meters.

Even such a small sphere burned a 10 meter radius. How could he observe that magic with his own eyes from within 4 meters?

It’s something you can’t do unless you’re a suicidal person.

‘It’s tricky in a different way than Kyle.’

Like magical observation, interference can only be used with a certain degree of proximity.

It was difficult to interfere with such a wide range of high-powered magic.

‘The best thing is to block magic directly through the shield, and observe Dahlia’s magic ceremony through the shield… … .’

Unfortunately, that magic is not a level of magic that can be blocked with a shield.

In terms of power, fire attribute magic, which was originally the top, is a more evolved magic, so my shield will melt in an instant.

“Are you really going to run away? That’s too sad.”

Dahlia fired blue spheres at me one after another.

three in total.

It flew in like it surrounded me.

‘Is the sky the only way to escape?’

I quickly covered my lower body with mana and jumped high into the sky.

At the same time, I hit Dahlia with the Tempest Cutter.

A blade of wind with mana slightly less than c 5.

It flew at Dahlia at breakneck speed.

“Hmm.”

Dahlia let out a nasal sigh, her eyes shining.

At the same time, the blue flames that swirled around Dahlia focused on the front.

flame barrier.

At first glance, it was a barrier of density and output that my Tempest Cutter could not penetrate.

If so, just don’t drill it.

‘refraction.’

Broke the Tempest Cutter’s trajectory.

The free magic operation that the Bytenor style boasts.

The wind that embraced my will broke twice at right angles, evaded the flame shield, and flew into Dahlia’s side.

“Not through.”

Did I expect my Tempest Cutter to change its trajectory?

Dahlia moved the flame barrier.

Fire, fire, fire!

A blade of wind collided with a barrier of flame.

The blade of the wind could not pierce the flames and turned into air currents and disappeared.

“That anomalous magic doesn’t work on me.”

“know. I was just testing it.”

Dahlia Salentia’s superheated hell is a magic that moves the blue flames made in advance according to one’s own taste.

In other words, Dahlia can use magic at the same level as me as long as it is blue flame.

‘Still, I thought I might be able to break through at this speed of trajectory change.’

It gets blocked so easily

“But are you really going to come out so sad?”

Dahlia frowned and pursed her lips.

“When are you going to show the magic you used against the Italian team, or the 6th circle magic that goes beyond that magic?”

“I will use it if necessary.”

“… … Hehe. Against me now, can you win even if you don’t use it?”

“What if now?”

“Is that, too hurt your pride?”

Dahlia’s expression hardened.

It was an insignificant provocation, but I thought this would work.

Just like the magic she possesses, her temper is like a flame.

“Then I’ll make it so you can’t help but use it.”

The blue flames swaying behind Dahlia increased in strength.

It almost doubled in size.

Sooner or later, those flames will come flying at me all at once.

‘It can’t be helped.’

If possible, I wanted to fight without resonance and win.

The situation is unfavorable.

Now is the time to use resonance and do everything in your power, even if it means exposing some information.

‘Resonance.’

I accelerated the circle while watching the dahlia’s blue flames gradually take shape.

Mongle, Mongle.

Water droplets began to swirl around me.

* * *

Dahlia Salentia was currently rejoicing in real time.

“Ahaha!”

Dahlia’s laughter rang through the steam that rolled everywhere.

“It is said that fire is water, but this is the first time anyone has responded to me this perfectly!”

The water-attribute magic used by Shin Ha-yul and the fire-attribute magic used by Dahlia continued to clash.

The resulting vast amount of water vapor now covers the entire field.

“furthermore… … Do you still have some spare energy left?”

Dahlia’s eyes blazed.

eyes burning with will.

As if responding to those eyes, Dahlia’s blue flames spread out in all directions.

As if the blocking of the field of vision by steam didn’t work for him, he spread out with the momentum to burn the entire field.

Push, push, push!

I heard the sound of water evaporating again from one direction.

There must be a divine law there.

“There you are!”

Dahlia immediately heard a sound and shot her magic in the direction it came from.

A flame that blows away while erasing water vapor at an extremely high temperature.

It flew towards Shin Ha-yul, who was standing at the end of that steam fog.

however.

“… … doesn’t exist?”

There was no one beyond the steam fog.

It must have sounded from that direction.

Pajijijijijik-!

At that moment, a loud thunderclap was heard from behind.

A sound unique to brain attribute magic.

‘It was behind me!’

Dahlia immediately moved the flames back.

No matter what type of magic it is, it cannot pierce Dahlia’s blue flame.

That was when all the flames were concentrated behind.

“That, right?”

“… … !”

Shin Ha-yul put his face in front of Dahlia’s eyes.

‘When until here… … !’

beyond 3 cm.

Golden eyes pierce Dahlia’s pupils.

An unpleasant sensation as if looking into one’s own abyss.

Before he had time to dwell on that displeasure, an alarm went off in his head.

Shin Ha-yul aimed at Dahlia’s face and swung his fist.

“Oops!”

A very simple and quick swing.

Dahlia also did not neglect her taijutsu, so she never got a clean hit.

But it wasn’t completely avoided either.

Shin Ha-yul’s fist grazed Dahlia’s cheek and hit her earlobe.

“Fists in a woman’s face… … no manners… … yes!”

Feeling tingling pains in her cheeks and ears, Dahlia exploded the flames around her.

Shin Ha-yul stepped back and disappeared into the steam again.

quiet field.

Dahlia’s tension was indescribable as her vision was blocked by thick steam.

‘fun.’

this kind of tension. I don’t like it.

Rather, I want to continue to feel it.

some more, some more, some more.

The corner of Dahlia’s mouth rose slowly.

Shin Ha-yul’s fist tingled his cheek.

I didn’t even like that feeling.

‘… … uh?’

In the meantime, I felt a strange sense of incongruity.

Feeling like something is missing.

Dahlia immediately grasped the identity of the sense of incongruity.

Dahlia caressed her right ear.

‘There are no in-ears.’

A radio-integrated in-ear distributed for siege warfare.

When I brushed my earlobe a little while ago, I wonder if it was smashed. When I noticed, the in-ears were gone from her ears.

I was taken aback for a moment, but soon realized that there was no meaning even if the in-ear disappeared.

‘Anyway, this match is split 1:1. I don’t need in-ears.’

Even if an incident should occur, the main unit will handle it well. Dahlia’s trust was firm.

‘Rather than that, it’s this way now.’

Shinha rate.

A genius that surpasses that nasty Kyle Ventia.

For now, we just need to focus on defeating him.

Dahlia erased all her thoughts and focused all her nerves on the battle.

1 min.

2 minutes.

Time passed.

Magic collided with magic, and the sound of people clashing echoed one after another.

‘It’s strong.’

It was Dahlia who was being pushed back.

‘The magic’s output doesn’t make that much of a difference. I’m completely behind in my ability to use magic and strategy.’

Shin Ha-yul is using only the level of magic that single-handedly crushed the Italian team in the past.

Although the output exceeds the 5th circle, the output is lower than the 6th circle.

Exactly the same level of output as Dahlia’s superheated hell.

Nevertheless, Dahlia has not been able to counterattack properly. They are overwhelmed in terms of utilization, strategy, and combat skills.

‘It’s fun.’

Even in that overwhelming inferiority, Dahlia was smiling.

There are reasons why this battle is enjoyable, but that reason is not all.

‘As expected Shin Ha-yul wasn’t the 6th circle.’

The joy was greater by knowing the accurate information about the achievements of Shin Ha-yul, which had been a question for a long time.

‘If Shin Ha-yul was really a Circle 6, there’s no way he wouldn’t have used Circle 6 magic until now.’

There’s a possibility that he’s hiding something about Circle 6 until the end for strategic reasons, but it’s highly unlikely.

‘If Shin Ha-yul was really a member of the 6th circle, he would have had to press down with overwhelming force, even if he didn’t have to do such a troublesome thing.’

Therefore, Shin Ha-ryul is not the 6th circle. Even if it is a 6th circle, there is a reason why the power of the 6th circle cannot be used freely.

‘Or there are some restrictions on using the 6th circle magic.’

This conclusion follows.

Even if he loses in this battle, it will not be a loss as long as he knows this information.

This is why Dahlia is happy now.

“if… … .”

At that time, Shin Ha-yul’s voice was heard.

“I may not be in the 6th circle. Are you thinking like this?”

It was a cold voice, like pouring cold water on Dahlia’s joy.

“How can you not use the 6th circle magic in this situation? Shin Ha-yul is also not a 6th circle. You seem to be thinking something like this.”

“… … .”

Shin Ha-yul appeared among the steam.

“That, you’re thinking about it wrong.”

“Are you thinking wrong?”

“uh. As I said before, I don’t need to use even the 6th circle magic now, so I’m just not using it.”

Shin Ha-yul smiled leisurely.

“My purpose is to collect your information, the information of Superheat Hell. The longer we fight, the more information there will be. Why do I use circle 6 magic to finish the battle quickly.”

“… … gibberish. If you are really from the 6th circle, there is no need to gather information about my magic.”

Like I said, you just have to press down with force.

The fact that he is collecting information without doing that is proof that Shin Ha-yul is not a member of the 6th circle.

“If this was an individual exhibition, it wouldn’t have been necessary.”

A bright light flowed from Shin Ha-yul’s eyes.

“But this is a team fight, right? I need to gather information in advance in case my team fights against you without me.”

Dahlia’s expression frowned.

“So, the Korean team can beat me without you?”

“If only there was information?”

“… … If you go to that level of nonsense, it is the state of art.”

Dahlia snorted.

All of Shin Ha-yul’s words are sophistry.

As I said, if Shin Ha-yul is really a member of the 6th circle, there is no reason to do such a troublesome thing.

“If you really want to prove that you are in the 6th circle. Try using the 6th circle magic right now.”

“I don’t really want to.”

Shin Ha-yul shrugged.

“There is no need for that. From my point of view, just having you worry like that is a benefit in itself.”

“… … .”

Dahlia’s brow furrowed.

I wasted my time collecting information about Superheat Hell.

It’s close to sophistry, but it’s not at all far-fetched.

Dahlia’s mind immediately became complicated.

“Do you often hear that you have a bad personality?”

“no. Do you only hear that you are like an angel?”

“… … Bullshit all the way.”

Dahlia shook her head.

Shin Ha-yul made my head complicated again.

Looking at Dahlia with a complicated expression, Shin Ha-yul sang joy inwardly.

‘good.’

Shin Ha-yul’s purpose of planting a shadow of suspicion in Dahlia’s head was safely achieved.

The only thing left now is to finish the story so that the suspicion that has settled in Dahlia’s head can sprout.

“Well, I’ll know if I fight more… … .”

It was time for Dahlia to try to use her magic again.

– Beep, beep, beep!

Suddenly a whistle sounded.

“… … The final whistle?”

Dahlia’s eyes widened.

―The match is over! The winner, the Korean Obelisk Academy team! The loser of the siege is the Korean team!

A notice from the referee announcing the end of the match.

“Defeat? we? why… … .”

Looking at Dahlia, who was taken aback by the sudden declaration of defeat, Shin Ha-yul tapped his right ear with his index finger.

“Let me give you one piece of advice. In a group event like this, in-ears are valued like their own lives.”

Shin Ha-yul smiled.

“For a huge force like you and me, loss of contact can lead to defeat.”

“You, you can’t believe this was my in-ear… … .”

Dahlia caressed her cheeks and earlobes, which were still hot, with a puzzled look on her face.
