Episode 84
EPISODE.42
“All wizards are a group of people who have a knack for annoying people.”
The moment the voice flows in.
A chill covered the entire area, as if cold water had been poured on it.
Russell and Hubert’s steps were instantly nailed to the spot.
I thought I would be able to create a moment of silence, but I never thought the voice would be this calm.
The sharp wind blowing blows away the smoke that had covered the area in an instant.
Sugaak-!
Eventually it appeared.
It was as if a shield had been spread out, covering the area around it in the shape of a hemisphere.
‘The sword… … ‘What?’
It was a protective wall, a sword curtain, made with a single sword.
Although it was his first time seeing it in person, Russell also knew what a sword curtain was.
A defensive technique of swordsmanship through the lines created by swinging a sword and the planes created by overlapping countless lines.
I never thought I would see a prosecutor actually make it.
Of course, it was not easy to create a dense surface by overlapping countless lines.
‘It would be better to use a shield to do that… … .’
What was surprising was that they were able to block the pouring magic using the sword shield they created.
The heat that cooked your lungs, the thunderbolts that poured down, and the rock storm that raged due to distorted gravity.
Because it meant that nothing could penetrate into the inside of that membrane.
The surface created by a single sword is so dense.
Is that even possible?
A question arose.
Tsutsutsutsu-.
Soon the sword sinks.
Could it be that no matter how much the sword was, it could not completely withstand it?
About half of the sword body had turned into red molten metal and was dripping down.
But that’s it.
That was all that the two war mages achieved by continuously pouring in their magic power.
“decided.”
Clang-!
Throwing away the half-cut sword, he drew a new sword.
“I’ll show you something fun.”
Not the sword he was holding in his hand, but another sword worn at his waist.
Grumble-.
Fire light spreads over the red sword body through the surrounding flames.
The moment I pulled out my sword, I had the illusion that the wind in the area had changed.
A yo-yo energy flowed along the ominous dark red sword body.
What Russell felt inside was an unidentifiable discomfort.
‘what?’
From the moment the sword was drawn, I felt strangely irritated.
The unpleasant feeling of a swarm of bugs crawling up your toes.
A nauseating feeling that makes you feel nauseous.
Uuuuuung-.
The five circles rotated in unison, and the mana within them protested.
He said he didn’t like that sword.
“It is a magic sword made from dragon bone.”
At that time, McRae Hughes, who had adjusted his sword, opened his mouth.
“I heard that it was created by corrupting dragon bones with the blood of a hundred wizards.”
“Dragonborn?”
Perhaps that was the reason for the discomfort he felt.
That’s what I thought.
“The dragon known as the master of magic also has excellent magic defense to match its reputation. In other words… … .”
McRae Hughes says so -.
“This sword can cut through magic itself.”
-I swung my sword.
Bigeom (飛劍), Fuchsia (pink).
Let’s go!
A sword that cuts through magic.
True to its description, the incoming slash cut through seven layers of defensive magic in one go.
It’s completely different from before when the collision occurred.
“Sigh-!!”
Hubert’s face turned blue as he witnessed his magic split like sheets of paper.
It only takes a moment to get there.
The moment to cast the next spell!
Let’s go!
A sharp cutting sound rang out again.

“You listen well.”
“Cough… … .”
The waist was torn open, and the blood that flowed from it soaked the floor.
“execution!”
To protect Hubert, Russell urgently casted a spell.
Before that, pot!
A comb-like seal blocked Russell’s path.
“Even so, I didn’t like the eyes… … .”
He raised his red long sword and gave off a grim look.
“I’ll cut out your eyes first.”
Along with the voice, the world reflected in Russell’s eyes began to slow down little by little.
A strange sensation, as if time had been stretched out.
The moment felt as if it had lasted several minutes. Maybe this is what is called a magic light.
‘but!’
In that sensation, Russell gritted his teeth.
I still had a few tools left that I could use. He couldn’t give up until he tried everything.
‘Yongin (龍人)… … !’
The shadow of death blocked my eyes.
The moment to free the move you had saved in order to escape from that shadow!
“die!”
With the Death God’s sentence, wow!
… … .
It happened.
Whoops-!
* * *
Whoops-!
A noise like a mirror breaking rang in my ears.
At the same time, the sword that was being struck towards Russell bounces away.
no.
It wasn’t just the magic sword that was thrown away. McRae Hughes, who was holding onto the sword, was also thrown away and rolled on the floor.
Coo coo coo coo coo!
The distance is about a hundred meters.
A person who had reached the level of a sword master flew a considerable distance and was thrown into the ground without even being able to properly resist.
However, Russell himself, who had actually done such a thing, had a dazed look on his face.
‘what?’
In a completely incomprehensible situation, Russell covered his face with his palm.
‘It was clear that the sword was crushed…’
I tried to use acceptance to counter him, but before that… … .
‘The guy got thrown out-?’
Was it an illusion that I heard someone’s voice at that moment?
A situation full of questions from beginning to end.
It was McRae Hughes’ scream that brought Russell back to reality.
“Kwaaaaaak!”
What had happened was McRae Hughes screaming in the rising sand dust.
“this! “This damn sword-?!”
I don’t know why, but it was clear that something was wrong with that damn sword.
Taking advantage of that opportunity, Russell approached Hubert and asked.
“Are you okay? execution?”
He then quickly opened the cap and poured the potion towards his waist, where blood was flowing out.
“Keuuuuu-.”
Pure white foam rising over the wound. Hubert opened his mouth with a pale face.
“I don’t know what’s going on… … “Now is your chance.”
One hit and escape.
The opportunity for escape that they had longed for appeared.
If possible, it would be good to take advantage of this opportunity to feed him a bite, but…
‘That can’t be possible.’
I didn’t know if I had enough time to delay, and it was also a gamble.
It’s good if the attack can inflict fatal wounds, but on the other hand, if the attack brings the guy to his senses… … .
‘Tsk.’
Russell clicked his tongue and turned on the new model as the mere thought of the family made him dizzy.
The princess and the count flew towards the direction where they were hiding.
Pabat-!
.
.
A day and a half since then.
It had been raining lightly since night, and the area was completely covered in early morning fog.
It wasn’t that thick, but due to the nature of the forest environment, it was an unrecognizable fog.
A bird can be seen flying above the fog.
Purr-.
It was no ordinary flying animal.
It wasn’t that big, but it had smooth red skin and two pairs of wings.
It was Pepper.
Food duck-.
Pepper, who flapped her wings and made a sharp circle in the sky, directed her thoughts towards Russell below.
The idea is that you cannot see the enemy approaching nearby.
Russell, who was shocked, slowly opened his eyes.
When I opened my eyes, I found myself inside a cave filled with damp moisture.
A cave located in a corner of the Kalyan Mountains.
Sitting around were the princess and the count who looked tired, and…
“Hmm.”
It was Hubert, who was drooling.
The reason they were sitting here taking a break, even though they were in a hurry, was simple.
“How is it? Priests.”
Because Hubert’s wounds were more serious than expected.
He asked after using the flames to heal his wounds and pouring a potion on himself.
“Is there something wrong outside?”
Russell shook his head in response to Hubert’s question.
“I think it’s still okay.”
“is it… … .”
When Russell said that there was no sign of any enemy, the princess and the count who were listening to the story breathed a sigh of relief.
Hubert added.
“But you shouldn’t be complacent. The opponent is the Sword Master. They say he ran away without stopping for a day and a half… … “For him, this distance probably isn’t that big of a distance.”
Russell nodded, as if agreeing with that statement.
Although it is only a part of it, I have personally experienced the strength of the Sword Master.
If it weren’t for the abnormal phenomenon that occurred at the last moment, it wouldn’t have been easy to even create an opportunity to escape.
A strength that seems to have completely thrown off the human race.
‘Maybe I… … I may have been a little relieved.’
Because I overcame the wall of the 5th circle and became a mage.
Because the noble rank has also been restored.
I thought I might have been complacent, thinking that I could have done it at this point.
Through this opportunity, Russell was able to throw away those thoughts.
‘It can’t go on like this.’
To Russell, the empire was like his father’s enemy.
In order to achieve revenge, it was necessary to overcome those monstrous Sword Masters.
‘Of course before that… … .’
There may be a need to clearly reveal who my father’s enemy is and what the inside story was.
Russell clicked his tongue, feeling the words the cultist spoke become as harsh as a thorn in his throat.
‘Tsk.’
As if to change the subject, Russell turned his head.
asked Hubert.
“Anyway, how are your wounds?”
In response to Russell’s question, he looked down at his wound and shook his head.
“I managed to stop the bleeding, but the problem is the energy that has penetrated inside.”
Perhaps because of the unique energy of the magic sword, the flowing energy continued to worsen the internal injuries.
For the same reason, the effect of the potion was also worse than expected.
‘The only thing that can be trusted is that the home country would have noticed signs of abnormalities at this point?’
Ten percent, although it was not certain, Endymion was also a power that would not fall behind the Empire.
If the information hadn’t been delivered yet, it would be ridiculous.
‘I’m sure help will arrive before long.’
The question was whether the two could hold out until then.
‘The burn has closed up, so running isn’t a problem… … .’
If another battle broke out, it would be a different story.
“Priests.”
As if reading Russell’s thoughts, Hubert called Russell.
“Leave me behind.”
“… … ?!”
“I don’t know how much you can do since your body is not mature, but I think you can at least hold it for a little while.”
and.
“If this is a situation where someone has to sacrifice, wouldn’t it be right for me, who is at least a year older, to die rather than a priest who is young and has a bright future?”
It was a determined voice, but Russell had different thoughts.
“That can’t be possible.”
“… … ?”
“If someone has to stay anyway, it would be better for me to be able to hold them back a little longer. and-.”
Russell did not want to say anything further.
‘You want to show me something fun?’
If it was a move I wanted to show, this one was no easy feat either.
