Chapter 322
There was a long silence.
Sophia was doing her best to treat Shin Ha-yul, so she couldn’t afford to speak out.
Se-in was busy keeping the black mage king in check, so he had no time to talk.
“How long are you going to stare at me like that?”
The Dark Mage King crossed his legs and asked Sein.
“I would have said. I have no intention of fighting you until Shin Ha-yul’s life is cut off or he is properly attached. There is no point in being so vigilant.”
The darkness that rolls around the Dark Mage King.
A mythical heritage that has the same aura as Shin Ha-yul’s Ignis.
It changes shape here and there according to the will of the Dark Mage King.
“Ask me one.”
Sein asked, observing the mass of darkness.
“What kind of person is Shin Ha-yul to you?”
The Dark Mage King put his chin on his chin and stared down at the people.
“I must have said it many times. Shin Ha-yul is my hope.”
The Dark Mage King squeezed the mass of darkness in his hand.
“Ray Bell bitenor. Only the orthodox successor of the bi-tenor style, which is symmetrical with black magic, can kill the man with the veil stall.”
Puss-!
Darkness seeps out like crumbs from the tight grip.
The Dark Mage King’s anger shattered the darkness.
“So, please save me. No matter what.”
The Dark Mage King glared at Sophia.
If you can’t save it, then you’ll have to be prepared. It was a lifelike look full of such meaning.
“No need to worry. Even if you don’t threaten me that much, even if it means giving my all, I will definitely save you.”
Sweat poured down Sophia’s body like rain.
The work of sinking the mana in Shin Ha-yul’s body was quite arduous, so if he let go of his mind for a while, he seemed like he would fall asleep.
“May I ask one question too?”
“If you can afford to talk, focus on therapy or… … .””
“It’s because I think I’ll lose my mind if I don’t say anything.”
The Dark Mage King clicked his tongue.
Certainly, Sofia Anechevri’s condition right now is not in a good state, even in empty words.
If you miss it, your concentration will be disturbed, and if that happens, you will lose your mind.
Certainly, it would be better to hold on to the strings of the mind a little by talking about questions or something.
“good night. Allow me to ask questions.”
Sophia glanced at the Dark Mage King with trembling eyes.
“What’s the real reason you don’t kill me?”
Eyes full of tiredness.
It was a precarious look, as if he would fall asleep right now.
“The only one you think of as Bale Stoll’s opponent is Ha Yul, the official successor to Bytenor. I have no idea that anyone else can beat Bale Stall.”
“… … .”
The Dark Mage King was silent.
“That means. The reason why I didn’t move to dominate this world even though I had the power to rule the world was not to create a force to oppose the veil stall, but because I was worried about the growth of Ha-yul.”
What would have happened if the Dark Mage King had moved in earnest?
First of all, the world would have lost its current structure and become a post-apocalyptic world.
Laws and regulations would have lost their power, and it would have become a lawless zone where power speaks everything.
Educational institutions are collapsing, and helpless children die.
It would have become a terrible world with no room for the seed of talent to germinate.
Shin Ha-yul’s talent must have bloomed much later.
At least, growth would have been slower than it is now.
The Dark Mage King was worried about that.
I was worried about that, so I didn’t dare to try to rule the world.
He built a black mage tower and kept it in check at an appropriate level.
“Can I take that silence as an affirmation?”
The Dark Mage King fell silent again.
It was still an unknown expression, but it was clear that the inner meaning of that expression was ‘positive’.
“As expected.”
Sophia’s lips formed a smile.
The expression that finally solved the question.
It was an expression that showed that the ten years of congestion had gone down to some extent.
“As expected, you didn’t keep me alive as a counter horse to Bale Stall.”
But that smile was short-lived.
Sophia’s expression soon turned sharp again like a blade.
“I will ask again.”
“… … .”
“Why are you trying to keep me alive?”
Even in the Atlantic wormhole incident.
Even in the case of American air raids.
Even in this raid.

If the Dark Mage King wanted to kill Sophia, he could have killed him as much as he wanted.
“Why do you bother to just put a curse on it and watch it?”
However, the Dark Mage King did not kill Sophia.
Like I can’t kill you.
Like you can’t kill it.
“What do you want from me?”
“… … hmm.”
The Dark Mage King untied his legs.
“Did you think that far?”
I lowered the hand that was resting on my chin and stood up.
“Looks like you gave too many hints.”
One step, one step.
Approach Sophia.
“You are right. There is another reason why I do not kill you.”
He knelt down and made eye contact with Sophia, who was putting her hand on Shin Ha-yul’s chest.
Slowly, he raised his right hand and caressed Sofia’s cheek.
“You are my hope in a different way from Shin Ha-yul.”
“… … What do you mean?”
With the other hand, hold the center of Sophia’s chest.
I touched the center of the curse.
“As you know, I entered the 10th circle. Transcend the 9th circle, called human limitations. You have reached the realm of the gods.”
A hand full of love.
As if stroking her own body, she gently stroked Sophia’s cheek.
“But it literally just arrived. He has not fully stepped into that territory.”
The eyes of the Dark Mage King were stained with hatred.
“Even though I’ve definitely built up enough strength to enter the 10th circle. Even though he has reached a level where he can touch the realm of God. I couldn’t go any further.”
hatred towards someone.
It was a primary resentment toward the man who took away her dreams.
“What do you think the reason is?”
“I do not know.”
Sophia shook her head.
It was an area that was difficult to imagine for Sophia, who had not seen the end of the 9th circle, let alone the 10th circle.
“Because I am a warlock.”
“Being a black magician… … because?”
“It is true.”
The Dark Mage King’s expression became even more savage.
“Precisely, it should be said that it is the power that sold the future.”
“What do you mean by the power that sold the future?”
“I mean literally.”
The wrath of the Black Mage King began to be revealed more and more.
It was slowly beginning to become clear where that anger was headed.
“Bail stall. The beginning of black magic made the choice to gain power by selling the future. I bet everything in the present, saying that I would definitely deal with the hateful enemy of Ray Bell Bytenor.”
bale stall.
The Dark Mage King’s anger was directed at him.
“That’s why I didn’t get into the 10th circle. Because there was no future, I couldn’t advance to a new level.”
The Dark Mage King removed his hand from Sofia and looked at his own palm.
“My talent was a talent that would surely enter the realm of the gods, but the magic I chose was not a vessel to contain my talent.”
Aww-!
Clench your fists and explode your anger.
“Bail stall. That stupid man stole my future.”
The Dark Mage King’s expression suddenly turned cold.
“I think it was from then. It made me hate Bale Stall and contemplate killing him.”
It was natural for the Dark Mage King to resent the foolish ancestors who blocked his path.
“and… … .”
The Dark Mage King glared at Sophia with cold eyes.
“I made up my mind to give up black magic.”
“Black magic… … Are you throwing it away?”
“Yes.”
The Dark Mage King stood up again and took three steps back.
“They say that extremes go hand in hand. That’s what it says. Magic invented by Ray Bell Bytenor, and black magic invented by Bale Stoll. The two magic chests coincide to some extent.”
Black magic has no future.
Even if you have the talent to reach the 10th circle, and even if you have the talent to go beyond that.
As long as he is wearing the shackles of black magic, it is impossible to go any further.
The only way to go beyond this is to abandon the black magic.
“Even if I abandon black magic, the results of my training so far will not disappear. I can reach the 10th circle through white magic.”
Discard black magic and learn white magic.
And after that, step into the realm of gods again.
This was the new purpose of the Dark Mage King.
“but.”
The Dark Mage King sat on the throne again.
A black throne painted entirely in pitch black.
“Black magic wasn’t something you could throw away just because you wanted to.”
It was as if the throne were fetters.
“The curse of black magic coiled around my body. It has long been rooted deep in my body. I can never erase it until my life is over.”
no. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that they were actually shackles.
Like the modifier ‘black’ in the King of Black Mage. The Dark Mage King could not abandon the black color.
“so.”
I couldn’t let go of the black magic.
If this is not shackles, what is?
“I decided to give up my life.”
The Dark Mage King pointed at Sophia.
“Leave my life. throw away my body Abandon black magic.”
To be precise, it was referring to the curse that had settled in Sophia’s body.
“I decided to be you.”
Sophia’s eyes widened.
“that… … what… … .”
The Dark Mage King rested his chin again.
“The curse planted on you is not simply a curse that takes your life. It is a curse that annihilates only your soul from your body.”
“Soul… … .”
“I intend to lose my soul and claim your empty body.”
This is why the Dark Mage King did not kill Sophia.
Sophia must not die.
In the not-so-distant future, the body that will become your own body.
can’t hurt
“By doing so, I free myself from the entanglement of black magic that has settled in my body. You can reach the 10th circle with white magic through your body. You get that possibility.”
The Dark Mage King’s eyes burned.
“And after that. As long as Shin Ha-yul kills the veil stall and removes the veil stall’s spell that is imprinted in my soul… … .”
Black eyes burning with ambition and desire.
“Only then can I exist as myself. Not as the Dark Mage King, but only as me. As an individual, I will be able to stand at the pinnacle of this world.”
This is the purpose of the Dark Mage King.
“so… … me… … .”
“okay. I am keeping it alive.”
Sophia bit her trembling lips.
At the shocking remark that his body would be taken away, I felt like I was going crazy.
“Are all your questions resolved now?”
Looking at Sophia, the Dark Mage King smiled.
“… … .”
Sophia was silent.
I was silent, thinking to myself.
‘I can’t give my body to the Dark Mage King.’
I couldn’t give myself up to the Dark Mage King.
According to the Black Mage King’s words, the moment he loses his body, the Black Mage King rises to a higher level.
It has to be blocked somehow.
‘After saving Ha Yul. I will commit suicide.’
Fortunately, blocking is not that difficult.
You just have to commit suicide.
All you have to do is erase this body without a trace.
“Will it really go your way?”
At that time, the Dark Mage King moved.
The surrounding darkness expanded, and the world suddenly became pitch black.
“this… … case… … .”
At that moment, Sophia’s mind went blank.
The curse that was eating away at the body was activated at once, and the mind began to blur.
“Why do you think I told you the truth? Knowing this, it’s clear that your character will choose suicide. Why do you think I told you the truth?”
Beyond my blurry vision, I could see the smiling face of the Dark Mage King.
“Originally, after the curse ripened a little more. I was thinking of transferring my soul after making your body more accustomed to my mana.”
The black mage king looked down at his servant Ha-yul’s face.
The complexion is much better than before.
After Sofia’s ceaseless efforts, Shin Ha-yul passed the death penalty.
Even if the treatment ends here, there will be no death of the servant.
“Thanks to that variable mass and Shin Ha-yul’s unreasonable behavior, I had quite a lot of aftereffects on my body.”
Sophia’s body staggered, then collapsed.
“I decided to take your body now.”
The Dark Mage King looked at Sophia and smiled brightly.
When I thought of the new world that would unfold in the future, I burst out laughing.
“Then go well. Sofia Annechefrey. my nemesis.”
It was when the Dark Mage King tried to forcibly activate the curse on Sophia’s body.
Slow-!
Suddenly, the black mage king’s mana was cut off.
“It’s getting a little familiar now.”
Sein’s sword cut off the black mage king’s mana.
“… … I’m sure you couldn’t cut it.”
“It did.”
Sein didn’t lead the sword, and swung it again as it was.
Then, the darkness surrounding the Dark Mage King was cut off.
“Until a little while.”
Even though he swung his sword twice, Sein’s sword did not go to the scabbard.
“But now it is different.”
As if the cooldown through the lead sword didn’t matter anymore.
As if he had overcome that weakness a long time ago.
Sein fired the third slash.
“You shouldn’t have given me time. You shouldn’t have given me time to observe the darkness. You shouldn’t have given me time to contemplate myself.”
Situated in front of the fallen Sophia and the breathless servant Ha-yul.
Cut off the approaching darkness.
“… … indeed.”
The Dark Mage King frowned.
“Since a while ago, I was wondering why you were staring at me so intently. Were you observing my strength?”
Looking at the black mage king, Sein raised his sword.
“Your darkness is familiar. Now your darkness does not work on me.”
that instant
During that short time while Sophia was healing Shin Ha Yul.
“What a monstrous talent indeed.”
Sein Binoche stood on a higher level.
