Concept Grasping Magic Genius Episode 168
It is a magic that splits convection into small pieces and creates dozens of narrow paths that spread out like tree roots.
It protrudes sharp stalactites that can be placed exactly under the feet of the enemies and kill them instantly. For those who cannot see Mana, it is like being suddenly hit by a giant dagger protruding from the groin.
The result was the annihilation of Soldato.
The hostages who were suddenly freed were momentarily confused, but soon scattered here and there, looking for new ways to survive.
Nostra’s consigliere did not respond.
I left him alone, but judging from his expression, he seemed to have no time to spare.
It was probably because Roan, who had actually been there, was stronger than expected, but it was also because of the two magic tower masters who soon appeared behind Roan.
Even he would find it difficult to be confident of victory against three wizards.
“I saw the situation on my way here.”
“Wasn’t it overwhelming to be alone?”
Ingrid, the Tower Master of Senses, and Reinhold, the Tower Master of Ideas, continued to speak from behind Rowan, expressing their regrets and concerns.
Rowan shook his head without looking away.
“It’s still possible. You two, head to the magic tower first. I’ll catch the author and follow you.”
There is something I have felt through my combat experience so far.
Cases where you cannot commit yourself.
It often happens when someone is taken hostage or is concerned about others.
There was also a judgment that it would be better for those who had not worked together before to immerse themselves in the game on their own rather than clumsily working together.
If you know each other’s personality or tendencies well, or understand each other’s abilities well, or – if all of that is meaningless – you have the intelligence to understand and judge the situation and the ability to apply it immediately.
“Umm… … .”
At Loan’s suggestion, Reinhold let out a faint sigh and tapped Ingrid’s shoulder, who was hesitating.
“Don’t do that.”
He has a bit more experience with Loan than the other magicians.
He ran to the side of the road first so as not to catch his junior’s ankle.
He was followed by Ingrid.
She couldn’t take her eyes off Rowan until the very end, and Rowan reassured her with a smile.
The consigliere left the situation alone, which was fortunate from his point of view and his common sense.
Now two again.
Rowan asked.
“If you’re the consigliere, then you’re the number two in Nostra, right?”
“Have you heard? You have good ears.”
The man continued speaking with a sly smile.
“It’s Mario. He’s called the Consigliere of Nostra. His title and rank are grand, but he’s just an advisor to the boss.”
He was the one who had been talking big to Rowan until just a moment ago. Both his content and attitude were contradictory.
“Why are you suddenly pretending to be humble?”
“As needed, depending on the opponent.”
“Does it change?”
“These are the qualities required for this title. Those who cannot be the best forever must live with humility. And another thing is that they must be relaxed. A hasty person cannot be an advisor.”
“Leisure? Poetry is no longer with you. As you can see, the five great magic towers have all escaped, and unions are gathering from all over.”
“That seems to be true, but it doesn’t matter. If it doesn’t work out after trying it once, we can just withdraw. Anyway, I was skeptical about the distribution of benefits of the alliance.”
“I don’t mind either. Even if you turn away now, I have no intention of letting you go.”
Mario smiled and nodded slowly.
Then he began to untie the tie he had finally wrapped around his hand.
However, it is not completely solved.
He said, initially tying the knot a little tighter and holding it in place, lengthening the tie.
“The position of a consigliere is to be faithful to the role of advisor to the boss. But there is something more important. Once the boss decides on the direction of the business, the role is to make it happen. You refine the plan, assign personnel, and check the progress of the work.”
“I thought you would be careful because it was such an important position.”
“It’s important. But to make things happen, you have to show overwhelming power so that those in charge can’t talk back. There’s always a final moment when the person in charge has to resolve things himself. But the best thing to do is not to create a fight you think you’ll lose. And you have to be smart enough not to get into that fight.”
“You’re not going to fight? Are you feeling a little out of your mind today?”
Rowan asked curiously.
It was a purely curious question that occurred to me because the other person didn’t seem very clear-headed.
Mario thought it was a simple provocation and said with a smirk.
“It seems that I was harsh in my evaluation of you. I admit that.”
Then he tilted his head slightly, glanced at his drooping tie, and then began to use his magic.
The tie stood up straight, emitting the subtle light I had seen earlier.
At first glance, it looked like a sword wrapped in an aura. No, it was more than just an ordinary sword.
Rowan wasn’t intimidated at all.
“If you were going to say something like that, you should have taken on Matapju as well. Then you would have seemed a little stronger, and your words would have been more credible.”
Swish-
As soon as Loan finished speaking, Mario pushed one foot forward.
It felt like the transition from a fighter to a swordsman was complete with just a few movements.
The murderous intent that had been surging from his entire body seemed to reach its peak at the end of his tie, which was standing straight up.
Although he was provocative, Roan did not underestimate his opponent.
I know Mario hasn’t used up his full power yet. His magical power is still as strong as it was at the beginning.
According to the records obtained by the Faith Committee, there are many experts or higher in Nostra.
By Loan standards, he is a captain.
‘Probably the same goes for interest.’
I thought he was a good enough opponent to test my skills and advance to the next level.

The path of circulation is often paved faster and wider through practice.
It takes a lot of determination to create a ring-shaped circulating magical force when the path is wide open.
A strong opponent met at a good time.
So, we can’t deal with it lightly.
I gave it my all from the start.
Choaaaaaa-
After circling in the sky for a while, Shevil slammed into him like a shower of meteors.
At the same time, the convection lines scattered haphazardly and shot out in front and to the sides of Mario.
An attack that takes up a significant portion of the defense.
Kwaaang!
A very dense attack is destroyed by a single blast.
Even though I just swung my tie quickly and loudly to create a barrier with the afterimage of an aura, it was still like that.
Truly outstanding strength and skill.
Rowan was somewhat impressed and wrapped himself in a thick layer of convection to prepare for Mario’s attack.
Two circles of the heart spin furiously.
The flow of mana that was swirling around the entire body. Among them, the path that was about to open up anew. The magical power that started from the inner ankle bone, swirled around both eyes, and flowed to the tip of the opposite foot was quite effective.
Even when not in full power, the speed of the thing that rushed right up to my nose was portrayed in a familiar way.
Since you can estimate, you can activate the area at a more precise moment.
The range and power were much greater than before.
Kuuuung-
For a moment, Mario’s brow furrows.
The reason the law was broken was because the tie could not reach the distance.
Without missing a single moment, Rowan takes control of the area.
I wasn’t planning on giving it any more distance with the momentary load pressure, but it seemed like it was already expected.
Choaaaah-
Something that overcomes the heaviness of the atmosphere and stabs at Rowan’s heart.
The neat tie stretched out like a whip, its aura spreading out.
Roan felt the squeaking of the circle once more and laid back down. It was a precarious position, but thanks to the thicker path of the circle, he was able to hold on quite stably.
Immediately, a heavy sword strike grazed the spot where Rowan’s torso had been.
The gap between them has narrowed further.
Rowan spun around backwards, supporting himself with both arms, and kicked his legs up in reaction.
bang-!
The sound of a tie wrapped in aura and legs stacked on top of each other touching.
At the same time, Rowan raises [Spine] and aims for Mario’s center line.
“Nonsense!”
Perhaps because it was a condition that he had once seen, Mario retreated a sufficient distance and neutralized the sharp stone pillar.
Then he wraps his tie around the stone pillar again, closes the distance between them, and destroys it.
Kwaaaaang – This time, Roan stretches out a narrow path through the flying dust.
[Magic Bullets] that are fired in a bunch while closing the distance with the guy.
Too close to spread out a curtain with a tie.
At that moment, Mario lifts the front of his suit jacket to cover his body.
Kwakwakwa-bang!
Just as Roan protected his body with convection, Mario’s suit, which resonated with his magical power, acted as a powerful shield, neutralizing Roan’s attacks.
However, the visual gap created by pulling up the clothes is something that cannot be helped.
Even if it was just for a moment, there was no problem in Rowan generating thoughts.
Soon, ice forms around Mario’s ankles and a fireball surges toward his chest.
Mario twisted his body and shattered the ice with a slam, cutting through the pursuing fireball as he dodged it once more.
Soft and soft again.
“profit!”
It was very urgent, but Rowan did not give in to the situation.
There was a need to use the horsepower more quickly.
It felt like it was not long before a new path of circulation would be completely opened.
Shu-shu-shu-shu
A hand extended towards Mario.
From all sides, Shevil and Convection pour in, trying to find a gap. The ground where he is about to step is already covered in bright red flames.
With that reckless arrangement and rush.
Mario seemed to be unable to bear it any longer.
“Yes, Inooom!”
He screamed and unleashed his magical power.
The convection current of Roan, shattered by the blast of magical power, and Sheville, stretching out into an uncontrollable realm.
After estimating the distance flown and memorizing the location, Roan gave up on retrieving Sheville and stood there blankly, staring beyond the dust and smoke.
After the explosion.
It wasn’t clearly visible yet, but it was because the atmosphere had changed.
It’s clear that Mario will be there, but the quality of mana feels completely different.
‘what.’
Rowan looks puzzled.
After a while, the blurriness cleared and Mario appeared.
“… … .”
What can I say about this strangeness?
Should we say that the suit Mario was wearing turned into skin?
The folds of the clothes, the collar of the shirt, the hem of the sleeves, etc., were stuck to the skin while maintaining their shape, shining with a strange sheen.
The tie wrapped around his hand flutters in a much longer form, connected to the clothes that have become his skin. It looks like a thin tentacle.
It seemed as if the densely condensed magical power exploded in an instant.
The visual impact was so great that it seemed like all of it was used solely to change the bastard’s appearance.
Rowan felt familiar with his horn-like, pointed shoulders, his large eyes and nose on his torso, and his multiple mouths.
Just then, Mario said:
“To bring about this appearance. It seems that the evaluation was still harsh. I admit that.”
“Are you a devil?”
“Isn’t that so? That’s why I couldn’t reject the Eastern Alliance. Well, since we’ve already gotten the results, it doesn’t really matter what happens.”
The bastard’s breathing and expression were quite shaky due to the relentless attacks, but now it was not like that at all.
He is quite relaxed despite his ugly appearance.
It felt completely different from any demon I’d ever encountered before.
If you are possessed by a demon, you will most likely end up handing over control to the demon.
“Are you Mario?”
“Then I will come out… … .”
“Are you wearing the devil’s clothes?”
“As you see.”
“It’s strange. It’s ugly, but I guess that kind of possession or combination is possible. Can it fall? Is it like a transformation that comes and goes? What are the demons’ names? How did they coordinate with each other?”
As I keep asking questions, I feel like I’m getting more and more curious.
Mario’s mouths smiled simultaneously.
“I see you have a lot of questions. Well, it’s the time of the year. But there’s no time for that. We have to start over.”
“Right, there’s no time for that. Anyway, you… … .”
Rowan nodded slightly.
It looks like he’s thought about something on his own, found the answer, and agreed.
I expected a fierce battle, but I wasn’t afraid.
The path of circulation for the third circle.
The opening is just around the corner.
“It’s a very useful sample.”
It seemed like it would be helpful in many ways.
