Episode 44
EPISODE.22
“You were there.”
Russell, who traced back the flow of magic power and found the location of the cultist, coldly recited.
A cool glow poured into both eyes.
As soon as I hit the floor with my toes, a loud bang came out.
bang!
Movements that are unbelievably fast for an ordinary wizard.
Overlord and Wizard Body.
Russell’s movements, aided by two ancient magics, were comparable to those of a cannonball.
Hahahaha!
The distance between the cultist and Russell is rapidly decreasing.
Meanwhile, the guy shouted in an urgent voice.
I gave the command with magical power.
“Stop it!”
The undead created through necromancy responded to the command.
It rattled its parts and formed a barrier of bone.
Clatter, rattle.
Ta-dad-dad-!
However, Russell had already anticipated that and prepared the next move.
‘Tilt the wall of flame, add mobility, and add a radiation range to it -.’
The form is changed by adding a few more formulas to the existing magic.
What unfolds is a fire wall.
No, it is a wave of flame, so it would be correct to call it a fire wave!
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
A huge wall of fire tilted diagonally and swept down in all directions.
Immediately after, it split into two sides, opening a path leading to Nome.
Crash!
Meanwhile, Russell’s new model ran without hesitation.
Jumped several meters in one leap.
He smashed the head of an undead that was not swept away by the flames with his shoe.
bang!
We used that reaction as a stepping stone to take a leap forward.
I flew towards the place where the cultist was.
Instead of being at the bottom of the cavity, I could see several passages opening higher up.
The height is about 4m from the floor.
My guess is that it’s a corridor connected to the other entrances I saw on the way in.
If not, there may have been another entrance that he didn’t know about.
The guy was hiding in one of the passageways.
“Huh, huh!”
The guy who made eye contact with Russell let out a look of embarrassment.
Then, they tried to escape using the passage extending outside.
I tried to increase the distance.
but.
chin-.
A beat faster than that, Russell put out his hand.
“Gotcha.”
I grabbed the guy’s back with a flash of a hand and immediately threw him outward.
To be precise, towards the cavity where he was standing just moments ago!
bang!
A thick layer of sand and dust rises along with the heavy drinking.
“Cluck, clack.”
If several skeletons had not been smashed and acted as a cushion, the impact would have shattered the pelvic bones into pieces.
“Kuh. Wow.”
Xavier, a cult member, trembled with shock that made his bones tremble.
But there was something that felt even more frightening than that.
Jerk, jerk.
It was the sound of footsteps approaching towards him.
The sound of his footsteps coming from the dust that has not completely settled feels like those of the Shinigami.
Could it be that they are trying to destroy the undead that stand in their way?
The sound of magic being cast and bones being shattered rang out in succession.
Kwa-jeok, Kwa-jeok, Kwa-jeok
Grumbling!
The hot wind created by the red flame instantly pushes away the sand dust.
Meanwhile, a pursuer appeared.
Daria Snowwhite’s disciple, Russell Raymond, scolded her coldly.
“I don’t think there will be any trouble if we just surrender and end it now. how is it?”
Unlike himself, who was rolling around on the floor miserably and even his mana circle was in shambles, he didn’t even seem to be breathing.

No matter how much there is a difference between a necromancer and a war mage, isn’t this really a different level?
At that fact, cult member Xavier let out an odd sound.
“Hehehe, hehehe, hehehehe. Mud. flaw.”
It’s like an animal howling.
He chattered in a voice that was hard to tell whether he was crying or laughing.
“Damn you. That would be nice. I envy you!”
“… … ?”
“I mortgaged my soul to gain this meager power, and if that wasn’t enough, I sold the lives of my younger brother and parents!”
I glared at Russell with the utmost resentment in my eyes.
“But thanks to your natural talent, you have already achieved such skills without having to pay the same price as me!”
Russell responded coldly to the anger of the guy who was talking about the unfairness of the world.
“gibberish.”
Are you born with great talent?
No way.
If he had been born with something like that, his life before returning couldn’t have been so muddy.
Of course, you cannot say that your current skills are entirely the result of your efforts.
However, it was also true that despite this, he worked tirelessly.
“You mortgaged your soul because you lacked talent, and if that wasn’t enough, you sold the lives of your parents and younger brother?”
furthermore.
“Don’t say anything that isn’t funny.”
“… … !”
“Just because they weren’t born with that doesn’t mean everyone makes the same choices you did.”
I am not crazy because I became a cult member.
From the beginning, it was just a crazy person who became a cult member.
Even if it wasn’t black magic, he would have gladly sold his family if there had been another way.
Because that was the cult member in front of me.
“Those are just excuses and rationalizations. Self-justification for walking down a wrong path! No matter how you package it-.”
You were the only human being from the beginning.
That’s what Russell said to the guy.
“nice-.”
The guy’s body swayed greatly on the spot.
“Hehe. Hehehe.”
He slowly stood up and glared at him with eyes full of hatred.
He said, turning the story back to before.
“Surrender?”
There is no country anywhere on the continent that embraces xie jiao.
They were a people who were not welcome anywhere on the continent, making fun of not only their own souls but also the souls of others and mocking death.
Even if you surrender obediently, those words will only lead to one result.
The result is that they are interrogated, tortured, spill all the information they know, and then killed.
so that.
“That’s not even funny!”
He rejected the offer and shouted bitterly.
“Kill me!”
A cry like a scream.
The undead unit, whose movement had slowed down for a moment, rushed towards Russell.
Ta-da-da-da-dak-!!
.
.
What followed was a one-sided war of attrition.
It was also a war of attrition with the clear outcome of Russell’s victory.
Unless the cultists have another way, it will only be a matter of time.
Thinking like that, Russell moved his body.
Blaze Staff.
His shoes were engulfed in flames and his body rotated sharply like a top.
Kwa-Juk, Kwa-Juk, Kwa-Juk!
The three undead heads at the end explode one after another.
It is said that most war mages have methods for dealing with close combat, but Russell was special among them.
The proof of this is the combat method that, at first glance, makes it difficult to tell whether the person is an Auror practitioner or a wizard.
“Ugh!”
With repeated attacks, the wall of undead gradually becomes thinner.
To repair the wall, the cultist Xavier moved his hands at high speed.
He developed necromancy.
Marionette.
The bones were adjusted like puppets, and personnel were replenished in places that had burst.
Clap, clap, clap!
Immediately after, he tried to throw his body backwards.
The destination is one of the passageways in the cavity!
Russell extended his hand.
Quaz, that is, bang bang!
A huge ice pick comes down, blocking the guy’s path.
To be precise, the entrance to the passageway through which he was trying to escape was blocked using a huge ice pick.
“Damn it.”
A situation that has already been repeated several times.
The thought of being chased by rabbits made me curse without realizing it.
Looking at Xavier like that, Russell felt like his stomach was boiling.
‘Putting the lives of others into the abyss of death without even the slightest hesitation…’
I can’t believe he’s so obsessed with his own life.
It was an absolutely disgusting sight.
No, it was beyond disgusting and even ugly.
In fact, most of the people massacred by him were civilians.
Real civilians, not civilians caught up in inevitable interests such as war.
I moved my hand.
Fire Arrow was cast.
Grumble!
The surrounding air heated up in an instant.
A convection phenomenon caused by the heat caused several hairs to rise backwards and robes to flutter loudly.
Grumbling.
The number of fire arrows cast is about fifty.
If you concentrate on one point, the number is enough to break through the few remaining undead walls.
‘good.’
Russell lightly snapped his fingers.
Fifty fire arrows spewed fire all at once.
Bubble bubbling!
Squirt, wow, wow!
Dozens of fire shadows flickered randomly.
The arrow of flame transformed into a red line and collided with the wall of undead.
Beobububebung-.
Gurgling!
Kwagwagwagwagwa!
A loud sound rang out, as if a volcano had erupted.
The remains of the shattered undead, bone fragments, bounced in all directions and stuck on the floor.
Bub bub bub!
“Gagging!”
Several of the pieces became stuck in Xavier’s body, randomly tearing muscles and tendons.
Hwaak-.
The air split.
No, more accurately, the flame split.
There was something crushing in it.
Pababat!
It was Russell with shield magic wrapped all over his body.
Armed only with shield magic, he crossed the exploding flames and falling bone fragments.
Just to catch Javier.
“Crazy guy!”
No matter how confident you are in shield magic, this is something that is usually impossible to do unless you are very brave.
Moreover, when did they block the escape route with a wall of ice again?
“Tsk-!”
It’s already too late to run away!
‘It ended up like this anyway-!!’
That moment.
Awesome!
Something crashed into the cavity.
black whip.
Dozens of fingernails, the tips of which shine green-yellow.
Two magic spells poured in and attacked Russell.
Quagwagwagwang!
* * *
Deflagration filled the hall.
It was a deflagration made of sand powder, bone dust, etc.
Half a beat later, a man and a woman entered the room together.
Although their clothes and appearances were different, the energy flowing through their bodies was clearly the energy of dark magic.
Cultist.
“Beth! Lavigne!”
Xavier shouted in a very relieved voice, and the two men and women.
Beth and Lavigne snorted.
“joy. Since I sent a request for support, I was wondering how great they were doing… … .”
“I never thought I would be having a hard time with just one baby. Even if you are a necromancer, this is true. You too have gone as far as you can. “Xavier.”
Giggling, giggling.
Xavier clenched his fists at the mocking laughter and attitude of the two men and women who completely ignored his skills.
protested against them.
“That’s not it!”
“… … ?
Also warned.
“That guy, that young guy, is the disciple of that bitch who will be burned to death!”
Someone who will rip it to death, someone who will dry it and kill it, someone who will cut its stomach open and take out its intestines and kill it, etc.
Although they were cultists with many enemies, there was only one enemy among them who was called a bitch to be burned.
“Yeomtapju… … .”
The man, Ravin, muttered in a stern voice.
The woman, Beth, asked in disbelief.
“Really, that kid is that bitch’s student!?”
“okay. The youngest student she has just received! “I’m sure you guys have all heard the rumors!”
The man and woman immediately looked away.
I stared at the very center of the binge, where the dust had not yet settled.
Now that I think about it, it seems like the baby’s hair was black.
‘If that kid is really that bitch’s student… … .’
‘There’s no way I could be retired from an attack of that magnitude.’
As if to support their thoughts.
“after-.”
The accumulated dust cleared away.
Russell slowly raised his head from the 1 meter deep collapsed pit.
The letters of light were distorted.
