Talent-Swallowing Magician Chapter 205

Episode 205

word or spirit

Faaah!

Elric quickly activated his magic and closed the gap between him and Leda.

Then he quickly asked Mephisto.

[how?]

He didn’t hide his surprise.

That’s because the more I competed with Leda, the more I felt that it was too much to deal with.

A little while ago, I thought about completely releasing the North Wind.

I also thought that if we pulled out all the Guardians and pushed them with the quantity, something might work out.

But in the end it didn’t work out.

‘The North Wind consumes more magic power than the cold snow. If it is deployed incorrectly, even Nahatram’s possession can be broken.’

But there was a bigger problem.

‘curse… ‘The mental interference is too severe.’

Leda was different from Judas.

He was using the seal given to him very well.

While using the famous seal on the right wing to push Elric to an overwhelming power gap.

The frantic seal on his left wing continued to touch Elric’s mental barrier.

curse.

They keep trying to manipulate Elric’s mind.

They tried to distract him by making him too excited, and sometimes he tried to break his motivation by transforming his uncertainty about Leda into fear.

Fortunately, Elric had strong willpower, and had unconsciously strengthened his mental power through Otto Han’s arrangements several times. Otherwise, something really big could have happened.

Couldn’t he have already lost half of his sense of self and been swayed by Leda?

It didn’t seem like he could beat Leda in any way.

I thought several times about summoning other ghosts during Chapter 6 of Winter.

Because they all have different organs and specialties.

If it was difficult for Nahatram to deal with Leda because he was skilled in martial arts rather than magic, I couldn’t help but think that there might also be a ghost who could be said to be a natural enemy of Leda.

But none of them answered Elric’s call.

I’m still just sitting somewhere deep in the unconscious world.

He knew that their magical abilities had grown stronger and that they were not asleep and were quietly watching him, but… It only made Elric frustrated.

I would have said something if they had said something, but there was nothing like that.

So, I thought about calling Hermann and Sailor as another option, but Leda didn’t give me the chance to do that at all.

however.

Suddenly Mephisto is acting like he has a way to fight back?

Even though questions naturally arise, it is inevitable that they will be tempted.

『Have you never thought about that? Your magic activation system is inferior.』

[What is that… ?]

Elric was about to ask what he was talking about, but stopped without realizing it.

One side of Mephisto’s lip curled up further.

『Still, I guess you can’t guess anything, right?』

[…] Please explain in detail. Because I don’t have time to sort things out in my head right now.]

Where Elric turned his gaze again.

Leda was looking away from the dragon again.

A tremendous amount of pressure pressed down on Elric’s shoulders again.

Exciting! Exciting!

As if Nahatram was not happy, his heart was pounding violently and his blood was flowing rapidly.

Whihwihwi!

Crrr-

The shadow surrounding Elric had suddenly risen up to his waist and was trembling violently.

It almost looked as if the animal living inside was crying because it was so feverish.

I really don’t like it. I feel like I have to tear it apart somehow to relieve my anger… .

『I can’t believe I have to teach a lesson to the descendants of our archenemy who is trying to harass our demons like this. Ah, indeed, the King’s heart was as wide as the rivers and the seas… !』

[Stop whining and speak properly!]

Elric finally couldn’t bear it anymore and started yelling, and only then did Mephisto give a proper answer. Although she was still having fun, the corner of her mouth twitched as if she was dying.

『Change the activation system.』

[Activation system… ? ah!]

With just that one word, Elric was able to understand Mephisto’s words in an instant.

『The seal of the winter world you have. It can be said to be one of the few sums of human beings that even the King himself recognizes. But you say something like that ‘at best’?』

Now that I think about it, Mephisto has made comments several times.

While the rank of the seals that can be used continues to increase, there is still very little development in the actual expressions used to deploy magic.

For example, it was like this.

Let’s say that after a long period of research, we have developed a very high quality and effective gunpowder. But what if the percussion device of the artillery that uses this is outdated?

There were two outcomes at this time.

Efficiency drops rapidly depending on the artillery.

Or, the canvas may be damaged after being used a few times because it cannot handle the heat for a long time.

This meant that there was a limit to properly bringing out the power of the winter seal with the word magic currently used by Elric.

『It won’t matter if you just use the seal you have to use ice magic. But if you want to use power-level magic, will that be enough? Do you believe that proper implementation will be possible?』

Power is far superior to magic.

If so, you need to have a proper trigger device to handle it properly.

Right now at this moment.

Elric felt like he had been hit hard in the back of the head.

『Then what should we do?』

[…] I have to get it.]

Leda was kicking the ground with her wings spread wide. Now it’s as if she’s going to get rid of Elric once and for all.

“what?”

[That’s right… .]

Elric gritted his teeth as he pulled out the ice spear again from the ice that had condensed at his toes.

[It’s stronger and stronger!]

Elric did not aim the ice spear at Leda.

In any case, even if you start an all-out war, you will only be defeated.

In that case, the fighting method had to be changed now.

‘I need to buy time.’

Fortunately, there was a very good teacher next to Elric who could teach him magic that was higher than the level of magic.

Of course, it wasn’t Mephisto.

Demons and demon lords simply handle their natural seals instinctively, and they are far from being spiritual.

But wouldn’t it be different if it were a dragon that spoke ‘dragon’, which can be said to be the end of words?

Kwaaaaang!

Elric struck the floor hard with his ice spear.

Then, as a winter storm swept through, cracks spread through the heavily frozen cave floor.

As if a spider’s web was spreading, the entire cavity was quickly covered with cracks, with ice fragments and powder flying upward.

“You’re trying to do something stupid again, Mervinger!”

Leda sneered at Elric as he randomly picked up a cloud of ice powder.

It looks like he’s about to unleash another winter storm, but it appears to be an expression of confidence that something like that won’t be able to catch him.

but.

“You can tell if it’s nonsense or not when you see it, right?”

Elric uttered a new command while looking at Leda who had come right in front of him.

“【Explode】.”

『Pahahaha! also! That little hair is amazingly good!』

With Mephisto’s laughter behind us, the ice powder and pieces that had filled the cave exploded all at once.

Powder explosion.

A natural phenomenon in which fine particles are floating in the air, and if a spark accidentally catches them, they immediately result in a huge explosion.

Of course, in order to do this, it had to be dried with as little moisture in the air as possible, but that was easily accomplished.

All I had to do was to place the magic fields one by one according to the results of a quick calculation in my head and pull the trigger device called Eunryeong.

Kwakwakwak!

Crumbling-

The inside of the cave was suddenly swept by an explosion.

Chain explosion. Big and small explosions occurred one after another, blocking the space between Elric and Leda.

“What nonsense… !”

Leda tried to blow away the explosion by scattering demon energy in all directions, as if wondering what she could do with such a trick.

But there was something he hadn’t thought about.

The cave had already been damaged so much that it would not be surprising if it collapsed immediately due to the fierce battle between him and the dragon.

The ceiling collapsed.

No, the cave completely collapsed.

Kwazijic-

Kukukuku… !

Elric quickly looked down at his shadow as he wrapped several layers of barriers around him to prevent the dragon from getting hurt in the process.

“hey.”

what?

Unlike Mephisto, Hyul still has no idea what Elric is trying to do, and only his thoughts are filled with doubts.

Her voice was full of irritation and anger, as if it had been quite humiliating to have been pushed out by Leda.

It was a wild beast that was angry from hunger because it could not eat as much food as it wanted.

As he became the seal of the chest and grew in size, his hunger also increased.

“You don’t like that guy, right?”

What do you want to say?

“Go wild as you want.”

Ho… . Is that okay?

The Demon King named Hyul was the archenemy of Elric’s teacher, Augustine, and the object of his ancestors’ grudges that he tried to overcome.

But what I meant was that I could let myself run wild like that.

“Is there anything you can’t do? “It’s my heart.”

Elric didn’t care at all.

From the beginning, as long as I was holding the reins of the thing in the form of a seal, I was confident that I could take it back as much as I wanted.

At that moment, I saw the ceiling where Elric was collapsing.

“【Be released】.”

The moment when the command was given to release the chains that had been binding Hyul’s thought form.

Clap-

Clap, clap-

I heard a series of sounds as if locks were being unlocked one after another.

I will live up to your expectations, master.

The shadow began to rise higher.

As if a huge beast hidden in the depths of the abyss was about to emerge above the surface, something else was about to rise above the shadows.

and.

Kwakwakwakwa!

As the earthquake became more severe, the cave completely collapsed.

* * *

Kukukuku… !

“Well, well, what is that…” !”

“The cave… It collapses… ?”

“The cave is collapsing!”

“The holy place… !”

“Guardian Dragon… !”

The eyes of those who were engaged in a fierce battle outside the dragon’s nest turned in that direction. Humans, demons, everyone.

The Star Servants were anxious because they knew that Elric had entered the cave, and Grigori stamped his feet because he could not figure out what had happened to Demon King Leda.

In particular, the complexions of the Borfur warriors were all pale and sick of the fact that the tribe’s long-standing sacred site was being destroyed.

Rather, only Sarnai, who cannot see, remains calm.

But instead of concentrating on something, she soon came to her senses and hurriedly raised her head high.

“Appear! “Everyone be careful!”

People couldn’t understand what she was talking about, but they instinctively realized that it meant that another dangerous situation would arise, and they tensed up.

Right at that moment.

Kwaaaaang!

A violent explosion that was incomparable to any explosion that had occurred so far occurred at the edge of the collapsed cave.

Whihwihwihwi!

And as a white winter storm blew right there, ‘something’ was slowly growing in size.

“Well, that… ?”

“how… !”

The people who saw it opened their eyes wide, and the Grigori demons had to hold their breath at the appearance of a new demon energy pressing on their entire bodies.

It was a beast.

It is well over several meters in size… A beast made of shadows.

What appeared to be a wild cat, such as a lion or a tiger, opened its eyes.

Air is… It’s really good. There are so many things I want to eat.

Hul (獝).

It was the moment when the Demon King, who had once driven the Eastern Continent into chaos, opened his eyes for the first time in decades.
