Genius Gamer, Reincarnated into a Heroic Family Chapter 285

Demon Noble Brechakin (2)

The Blue Hole magic of the Wilzed Dukes is also famous as one of the most unique and unusual magic in the world.

This magic, also known by the nickname ‘magic that kills wizards’, was a higher-grade mana seal magic that caused a kind of ‘mana burn’ phenomenon, burning all mana in an area.

This immense magic that allows him to absorb and refine all surrounding magic and make it his own was also the biggest reason why Wilzed was able to rise to the position of the second-strongest magician family in the world, after Ainglass.

‘The Blue Hole absorbs all magical power in the area, making it impossible for anyone in the vicinity to use magic or powers.’

However, this was an exceptional story for a knight. Unlike a magician who casts magic from the air by releasing magical power from his heart, a knight immediately transforms the aura of his danjeon into a physical attack.

If you’re near the Blue Hole, you’ll have a hard time maintaining your aura, but that doesn’t mean your combat power will be completely reduced to zero.

in other words.

If the Blue Hole magic is activated even for a brief moment, it can tie up Count Brechakin’s feet.

In the meantime, it wouldn’t have been such a far-fetched story for the two knights of Ailka and Citrine to push him back.

Breaking… … !!

“Ugh!”

The blue hole shattered like a glass window, and Knight Meratina and Melkis fell to the floor.

Ugh! Ailka also fell to her knees on the floor, spitting out blood. Citrine gritted her teeth and used the most powerful golden magic she could wield.

-It’s light.

Kwung! That huge pillar of light that fell from the sky was twisting through space, and it was really easy to dodge.

‘How, this… …!’

Ailka grabbed the floor with trembling hands.

The operation? It was somewhat successful.

To some extent, yes.

When the Blue Hole, which absorbed all of Ailka’s magical power, was activated, Brechakin was visibly flustered.

If you try to avoid Meratina and Melkis’ attacks by distorting space, how can you not be surprised when your power suddenly doesn’t activate?

9 seconds. It was only 9 seconds, but Meratina and Melkis were able to push Brechakin back.

In the meantime, Citrine’s magic ‘Divine Emperor’s Discipline’ was activated and hit Brechakin directly!

In addition, it took 9 seconds for the magic of the expedition wizards to hit multiple targets.

Brechakin must have suffered serious damage. His entire body was scorched, and one of his arms was almost torn off.

But that was it.

After 9 seconds, Ailka was forced to cancel Blue Hole, vomiting blood, and Brechakin, who had regained his powers, pressed forward again, not allowing even a single attack from Meratina and Melkis.

“Oh, Miss. Run away… … .”

Meratina, who had suffered a major wound to her abdomen, lifted her sword with difficulty and squeezing out her words.

Meratina and Melkis, who could be said to be the most powerful forces in this place, were already in bad shape.

Fortunately, Melkis’ injuries were not serious and he was still standing on his two feet, but his breathing was ragged.

Ailka seemed unable to fight any longer, and Citrine, with her magical powers nearly depleted, could do nothing but turn around and run away.

But, we cannot back down here.

‘There has to be a way!’

Citrine gripped her staff and glared at Brechakin.

He too was tattered all over from his wounds, but that didn’t mean he could rest easy. The devil is a being that sucks the life out of humans. Those little wounds could easily be healed.

‘But why doesn’t it absorb life force? Could it be… …it needs time?’

Since Citrine had never seen a demon before, she had to come up with some hypotheses.

‘You can absorb life force to restore your stamina, but it takes time to find a weak spot… … Otherwise, there’s no reason to leave that wound alone.’

Since it is known that all demons can gain power by absorbing human emotions and souls, it can be assumed that this premise is absolutely correct.

‘That’s right.’

Citrine’s eyes shone brightly with gold. Her eyes had inherited the royal trait of being able to see through the truth of others.

Brechakin was exploring the battlefield, trying to dispel the vigilance of Melkis and Meratina, and find a way to restore his stamina.

‘I don’t know how long it takes to absorb a soul. But since you’re not trying to do it rashly, I guess it means that if you give yourself a chance, you could be counterattacked by Meratina. In that case… … .’

Rather, pretend to give them time to absorb your soul, and then attack them when they have the chance!

“Meratina, Melkis. Step aside for a moment.”

“… … !”

The two knights looked into each other’s eyes and then took a few steps back as the princess had said. There was no other way at the moment.

One step, two steps. Citrine, supporting Ailka, opened up some distance, but as expected, Brechakin did not follow. The distance was meaningless anyway, but the fact that he did not chase after her meant that he also wanted to open up some distance.

-Are you running away?

“Hehehe… Should I call this a tactical retreat?”

Brechakin doesn’t follow along even though he asks so.

‘I can’t delay for too long.’

A cold sweat ran down Citrine’s cheek. Unlike humans, demons are naturally resilient. Even if he doesn’t absorb the soul, Brechakin will continue to repair his body as time goes by.

‘Before that, there’s a gap!’

Blame! When Citrine turned her back and ran away, Meratina and Melkis followed her without knowing what was going on.

But Brechakin still did not chase after them. When he judged that there was some distance left, Brechakin sat down on the ground and stretched out his hand.

The corpses of several of the lost expedition members floated into the air and came towards him, emitting what looked like a gray aura.

The soul that was imprinted with the most negative memories and emotions at the moment of death was the best medicine and meal for the devil.

‘After recovering from this, it’s not too late to pursue again.’

That moment when you think like that and try to absorb the soul.

Flash!

A thin golden beam of light passed by Brechakin’s neck. He quickly sensed the magical power and twisted his head to avoid it, but was unable to create a crack in space.

Because I was in the process of absorbing souls, I couldn’t manifest my powers!

‘no way……!’

With anxious thoughts, he hurriedly abandoned his soul and tried to use his power to split space, but before that, a pure white blade fell from the sky.

Crunch-!

-Ugh!

Brechakin steps back with one arm missing. Melkis, who has attacked him, clenches his teeth.

‘Damn, I missed!’

Originally, he had intended to aim for the neck, but Brechakin reacted quickly at the last moment, so the wound was shallow.

He quickly launched a series of attacks, creating a sheath within a 20m radius, but Brechakin deflected all of the attacks.

As a result, the entire ground within a 20m space was covered in sharp knife marks and turned into scorched earth, but the spot where Brechakin was standing was unharmed.

A power that is almost invincible!

‘But if you go along the flow of that distorted space, you can get there!’

But that power is not invincible.

It’s within reach.

Melkis trusted his senses and extended his sword with all his might.

Space was distorted, and my sword and arm were twisted. I would never be able to use my right arm or sword again, but if I could just pierce the bastard’s heart, then this much would be worth it… … !

Phew!

I got it! That was what Melkis thought, but as soon as he saw Brechakin laughing in the distorted space, goosebumps ran through his entire body.

‘this!’

I tried to retrieve my arm in a hurry, but it was too late.

Crunch!

The distorted space twisted neatly, severing Melkis’ right arm.

Thud! As Melkis retreated, blood pouring out on the floor, Brechakin waved her severed arm and placed it on the floor.

-The spirit of humans is still as vicious as it was 500 years ago. What do we live for?

“… …I live for my lord.”

-Oh, you are like me. Indeed, there are many respectable aspects to humans. Although you are weak and foolish, you have aspects that are more vicious and evil than the devil. I respect the loyalty of such humans.

Brechakin, who had dropped Melkis’s arm to the floor, slowly approached her.

-I, too, am a loyal subject to my lord, and I will respect you and grant you an honorable death.

Melkis held the sword in his left arm, but could no longer emit his aura.

Brechakin was also not in good condition, but demons do not fall from wounds of that magnitude. They had no concept of bleeding, and bodies that had disappeared could be easily restored by injecting energy.

“Ah, no… … .”

Citrine raised her trembling hands and gathered her magic power. If she left it like that, Melkis would be defeated.

“Please, anything… … !”

A faint golden glow appeared at the tip of his finger, but it only lasted for a moment and soon evaporated.

Ugh! Blood was pouring out of Citrine’s mouth. She had to force herself out of her body without any magical power left, which caused a great strain on her heart.

Can’t stop it.

‘It was for nothing that I suggested such a strange plan… …!’

Citrine clutched the scepter of her heart. Brechakin stretched out his hand. The moment his arm touched Melkis’s neck, she would meet death.

‘… … If Melkis dies, we’re all finished. In that case, it might be a little more possible to save her.’

My heart is pounding hotly.

If I were to use that magic that is absolutely forbidden even in the imperial court, wouldn’t there be a way? I might lose my life in return, but it would be better than dying here.

Lifespan? Actually, that wasn’t really a problem. I lived my life thinking that it was a half-wasted life anyway.

However, I was reluctant to use this magic because it was created by that terrible guardian of the imperial family.

Now is not the time to be showing off your pride. You have to do something to save people. To do that, you are ready to give up even your soul.

Woof woof! Golden flames shot out and enveloped her body. An explosive burst of magical power emitted, making her hair stand on end.

“I will offer the blood of the royal family of Herael.”

The order is simple. Just ask. That being can hear Herael’s voice anytime, anywhere.

By simply calling his name, you can gain some of his power in exchange for your life.

“Give me strength, Herei… … .”

Herein, just before calling that name.

Kuung!

A blue spear fell from the sky, forcing Brechakin, who was about to lay a hand on Melkis, to retreat.

To be precise, the power to distort space was naturally activated, and the distance between Melkis and Brechakin widened.

“uh?”

As she was reciting the spell, Citrine realized that her magic power had been withdrawn. The spell was canceled.

“Isn’t that a dangerous spell, Your Highness?”

“… … !”

Soon, Citrine felt a tingling sensation as she heard a voice from behind her.

It’s been years since I’ve heard that voice. The boy I haven’t seen since Arniel at the Magic School, but who I always missed.

“Harang Paul Caladan… … .”

The boy who was so small and cute that he was almost as tall as me has now grown into a handsome young man.

It appeared here like a miracle.
