Chapter 295
After that.
The battle ran parallel lines for a while.
Shin In-hyeok continued to break Levi’s body.
Levi just keeps repairing his body.
There had to be cases where the offense and defense were reversed, but in most cases, the picture of Shin In-hyeok overwhelming them continued.
The situation is going in favor of Shin In-hyeok.
However, Shin In-hyeok’s expression was not so bright.
‘It feels like I’m bragging about my strength in front of the endless expanse of the sea.’
It is Shin In-hyeok who is definitely overwhelming.
But this is just an empty overwhelm that means nothing.
‘How long will it last? It’s possible that the mana to be restored will run out.’
What will you do if you attack?
Because of the regenerative power that goes beyond common sense, it can’t even deal proper damage.
In fact, there is not much difference between the damages of the two sides.
It just seems to be overpowering.
In reality, a tense battle is going on.
So Shin In-hyeok’s expression had to be hardened.
‘A war of attrition. Is it a stamina game?’
Shin In-hyeok has no way to reliably deal with Levy.
Levi also has no way to damage Shin In-hyeok.
There is no means for either side to drive a wedge.
If this pattern continues, in the end, the side whose mental strength is exhausted first will be defeated.
‘Should I spread first? Will it spread first?’
Just as Shin In-hyeok’s magic, ‘All Elemental’, consumes a lot of mental power, Levy’s magic metamorphosis’ physical recovery also consumes a lot of mental power.
It wouldn’t be strange if either of them spread first.
The odds of winning are 5:5.
‘Half and half.’
From the point of view of Shin In-hyeok, who has the upper hand in matchmaking, it was a win rate that he did not like.
If it was Shin In-hyeok as usual, he would have changed his strategy at this moment.
He would have devised a new strategy to increase his odds even by five pennies.
but.
‘Not bad.’
You don’t have to do that this time.
Even if the odds are half and half, it is only the odds of a 1:1 match between Shin In-hyeok and Levy.
If you join the people waiting outside, the story is different.
‘It doesn’t matter if my mental power runs out first. At that time, all you have to do is swap with one of the three tower owners waiting outside.’
This is a tag match, not a 1:1 match.
It doesn’t matter if the odds of a 1:1 match are half and half.
There are still three more archmages left here.
No matter how much mana and mental power he possesses, it is impossible to deal with four people.
‘There is a 50% chance that I will win, but a 100% chance that he will lose.’
Shin In-hyeok just needs to maintain his current state and consume his mental power as much as possible.
Once you do that, victory will follow naturally.
‘There is no need to forcefully change the strategy here.’
Pajijijijik-!
Shin In-hyeok used his magic again and turned Levy’s body into ashes.
The fusion magic of fire attribute and brain attribute magic double burned Levi’s body.
The flame burns the skin from the outside.
The electric shock ignites the body from within.
Levy’s body turned to coal and fell to the ground.
cooong!
Levi’s body slammed into the ground with an unsightly sound.
Immediately after the crash, Levy’s body began to recover to its original form.
Shin In-hyeok looked at Levy and narrowed his eyes.
‘The playback speed has slowed down.’
Playback ended before falling.
Now, it is only after the fall that the body begins to regenerate.
It was proof that Levi’s consumption was not small.
Again, there is no need to change your strategy.
Just keep going like this.
Shin In-hyeok gained confidence again.
Roaring!
An overwhelming offensive that didn’t feel the slightest hesitation.
Shin In-hyeok burned Levy’s body with all his might and crushed it.
In proportion to the speed at which Shin In-hyeok’s mental power is depleted.
Levy’s regeneration rate also became slower and slower.
At this rate, it seems that it will end before the next person replaces it.

During the battle, Shin In-hyeok slightly turned his gaze to see Shin Ha-yul waiting in the distance.
‘I don’t think there’s any way for you to step out.’
Shin Ha-yul is currently in charge of connecting the inside and outside of the barrier.
Report the internal situation to the outside of the barrier, and exchange Shin In-hyeok’s location with someone outside when a problem arises with Shin In-hyeok.
That’s Shin Ha-yul’s current mission.
… … only.
I don’t think there’s anything I can do to fulfill that role.
Levy’s playback speed noticeably slows down.
It seems clear to anyone that the limit has been reached.
On the other hand, Shin In-hyeok’s mental strength is still intact.
It’s close to the limit, but not yet the limit.
More than 70% of the victory has already passed this way.
Shin In-hyeok turned his gaze back to look at Levy.
Levi’s body just in time to recover.
Before Levi could even come to his senses, he cast a new spell.
Levi’s body turned to ashes again.
‘Come to think of it… … .’
Looking at Levi like that, I suddenly remembered what Shin Ha-yul had said.
‘father. If Levy targets me in a completely unexpected way… … .’
10 minutes before the start of the operation.
He said this with a strangely serious expression, although he seemed to be half-confident.
‘At that time, rather than trying to save me. Please focus on making sure you deal with Levy right in front of your father.’
Thinking back on it, it was something I couldn’t understand.
If you think about it easily, it sounds like you are just saying that you should not care about your own life and do your best to deal with Levy.
but it’s weird
‘Levy in front of me… … . in front of me… … .’
To think so simply, it takes the modifier ‘Levy in front of his father’.
At the time, I thought so, but the more I think about it, the more strange it is.
Why did you put such a modifier on it?
If you were going to talk about it in terms of self-sacrifice, it would have been over if you hadn’t attached such modifiers and said, ‘Please focus on dealing with Levy.’
Why did you put such a strange rhetoric?
‘And why such a staff… … .’
Why is it that he is holding such a huge staff?
The connection between the outside and the inside is not necessary to carry out the mission.
why?
Such trivial, if trivial, questions passed through Shin In-hyeok’s head.
‘This is over. I’ll have to ask.’
By the time Shin In-hyeok finished his thoughts without thinking about it.
Woo woo woo woo woo-!
Suddenly, a bloody mana resonance sounded from Levi’s body.
Sounds like air being injected into a huge balloon.
Sure enough, Levy’s body began to inflate like a balloon.
‘Are you planning on committing suicide?’
It looks like it’s about to self-destruct.
“Everybody die!”
A desperate voice.
Did you give up everything and choose Donggweon?
‘You fool… … .’
Shin In-hyeok frowned and prepared the next magic.
‘Take care of it before it explodes.’
What I use is ‘Black Core’.
Before it even explodes, I will annihilate it from this world.
That’s when I was working on concentrating and compressing the four major attributes into one point.
Kugoong!
The ground trembled.
A very slight tremor, the level one can feel when an object is dropped on the floor.
It was passed on softly behind Shin In-hyeok’s back.
Shin In-hyeok ignored the vibration.
It was just a trivial level of trembling that I didn’t have to worry about.
I didn’t have time to worry about any of those things.
The priority now is to stop him from self-destructing.
Shin In-hyeok spurred on to prepare for the black core.
A very reasonable choice.
Anyone other than Shin In-hyuk would have made that choice in this situation.
but.
“You lost to me! Shin In-hyeok!”
that was a mistake
“… … !”
Levi’s voice suddenly came from behind.
Just like before, I wondered if he was using his voice to fake it.
Something felt strange.
I had a feeling that I shouldn’t ignore it like this.
Shin In-hyeok turned his gaze and looked at the place where the voice came from.
And as soon as I confirmed the owner of the voice, my eyes widened.
“You guys… … !”
Levy is flying towards Shin Ha-yul with his back turned to Shin In-hyeok.
As if to turn Shin Ha-yul into a honeycomb, he rushes in with his whole body changed like a hedgehog.
‘fake? Did I completely miss him? no. No way. There’s no way I missed his presence.’
Shin In-hyeok’s brain spun like a top.
I desperately tried to organize the current situation by acquiring and organizing all visible information.
The conclusion came quickly.
‘I don’t know how he moved, but Levy, who is aiming for Hayul right now, is real.’
That body change speed. that amount of mana. that presence.
It is certainly.
That’s not a fake, it’s a real Levi.
If you don’t move right now, the sinha rate is dangerous.
‘Then self-destruct is fake!’
Disguised as a self-destruction, it destabilizes mana. It’s clear that it’s fake.
Shin In-hyeok immediately turned around and threw himself at Shin Ha-yul.
No, I was going to blow it up.
“… … !”
It would have been so if I hadn’t accidentally met Shin Ha-yul before turning my body completely.
‘Those eyes… … .’
Confident eyes that can’t find the slightest embarrassment.
Looking into those eyes, I remembered what the former servant Ha-yul said earlier.
‘At that time, rather than trying to save me. Please focus on making sure you deal with Levy right in front of your father.’
Levi in front of me.
A rhetoric that was questionable until just now.
I slowly began to understand the meaning of the modifier, which I thought was unnecessary.
‘my… Levi in front of me.’
There are two levies now.
Levi behind your back and Levi in front of you.
Modifiers that were considered unnecessary became necessary modifiers starting at this moment.
Shin In-hyeok’s eyes trembled.
no way.
no way… … .
Did Shin Ha-yul anticipate this situation and say that?
Did he warn you in advance, knowing that Levy was going to target him like this?
‘if so… … !’
Shin In-hyeok tried to turn away, but turned his gaze back to Levy, who was about to explode.
The black core, which was on the verge of cancellation, is re-implemented.
‘The real one is this guy!’
A black core completed in an instant.
It completely swallowed Levy’s body, which was inflating like a bomb.
Levi’s body completely annihilated without leaving a speck of dust behind.
Shin In-hyeok urgently looked back.
‘Real removed. If that’s the case, the fakes behind it too!’
As Shin Ha-yul said, he removed the Levi in front of him. Then the fakes should have disappeared together.
however.
‘… … Aren’t they gone?’
Levy behind his back did not disappear.
As if it didn’t matter that the other Levi died, he glared at the minister with joy.
‘Hayul’s prediction was wrong! The real one is him!’
It is true that Shin Ha-yul is stronger than his achievements, but his opponent is a body transformation magician who cannot even pierce the skin with moderate firepower.
It’s dangerous that way.
It was when Shin In-hyeok hit the ground like that and focused his body’s center of gravity on his lower body.
‘Kaylum.’
Mana surged from Caylum like an explosion.
‘The Great Memorize.’
Shin Ha-yul smiled leisurely and recited the start language.
“Ignis.”
and that moment.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
Suddenly, Levi’s body burned.
“This fire… … .”
A firework that even Shin In-hyeok had seen before.
It was so shocking that I couldn’t forget it even if I tried to forget it.
“Ig… … niece?”
The primordial flame, Ignis, was burning Levi’s body.
‘Without a spear… … how… … ?’
Shin In-hyeok looked at Shin Ha-yul with a shocked expression.
Could it be that he has already reached the stage of a shadowless window?
no. No way.
Shin Ha-yul said that it would take a long time to study for Muyoung-chang.
There’s no way he’d already reached the shadowless window.
It is not a no-young window.
‘So what?’
What the hell is that Ignis? How the hell did he activate Ignis without a chant?
I don’t know. I can’t understand.
“You guys… … know… … was there That I can split my body in two… … girl… … .”
A new question was added to Shin In-hyeok’s already complicated head.
“… … what?”
Can you split your body in two?
Shin In-hyeok’s eyes widened even more.
Shin Ha-yul looked at Levy and spoke slowly.
“I knew that if I perfected metamorphosis to the limit, I could completely separate my body and mind into two. Of course I didn’t know you had reached that level.”
In the information delivered to Shadow, there was no information that Levy could divide the body.
“I bought some insurance just in case you didn’t know. I didn’t know that you really reached the final stage.”
Since it was not clear information, I didn’t tell anyone.
Telling uncertain information would only hinder the battle.
“It’s good that you got insurance.”
That’s why he said such a meaningful thing to Shin In-hyeok right before the start of the operation.
Don’t let it remain in your head right now, but later when the situation shuts up, it will come to mind.
“Thank you father too. Thank you for believing in me there and focusing on dealing with Levy in front of you. Thanks to you, I was able to take care of this guy for sure.”
“… … Were they both real?”
“yes. Both were fake and real at the same time. It is impossible to kill it unless both entities are destroyed at the same time.”
If Shin In-hyeok had moved there to block Levi from behind, it wouldn’t have ended so easily.
Reaching the point where the body can be divided means that simply regenerating the body does not consume much mental power.
If I missed this opportunity, I would have had to grapple for at least three hours.
If anything, it could have done a lot of damage.
I’m really glad I got insurance.
“… … Kww. okay. I mean, I knew all of that. Does this feel like Son Goku playing on the Buddha’s palm?”
Levi laughed like he was having fun. Rather, she has a clear expression on her face.
“Thank you. for clearing my doubts You wouldn’t even have to answer.”
“It was my last gift. I’m glad you were satisfied.”
“The last gift. it’s a gift is it.”
Less than half of Levy’s body was left.
“Then I will have to repay you.”
Levi’s right eye turned to dust and flew away.
“Ah, did you say this? The extreme of metamorphosis is the division of the body and mind.”
The remaining left eye shone with a bloody light.
“That is wrong. The extreme of metamorphosis is not the separation of the body and mind… … . It is to embody 100% of the body and mind of another person.”
Levi’s body, which had been disappearing, suddenly began to change.
It was a body transformation that squeezed out the last strength.
“Desperate. Admire it. And get down on your knees.”
A body that changes slowly.
The broken parts were still broken.
The transformed body was no longer broken.
“It is the king’s palace!”
That moment.
the air has changed
Based on the point at which Levi’s body undergoes complete transformation.
everything has changed
“… … Whoa.”
Someone half broken grinned.
“Gwangwang banjo. Did you succeed in embodying yourself at the cost of everything you had? It’s not bad. Quite interesting.”
black.
A man whose only color comes to mind.
“The Dark Mage King!”
The Dark Mage King looked at me and smiled slowly.
