Episode 26

『On the continent… The strongest?』
One of Mephisto’s eyebrows twitched.
Demons are a world of strength and self-respect.
The expression ‘strong’ probably tapped into his desire to win.
“joy! Even so, it’s just a human standard… .』
“no. “At one time, I competed with my grandfather, who was said to be one of the strongest men in the family’s history.”
『That’s a bit interesting.』
Mephisto lightly moistened his dry lips with his red tongue.
It was as if they had decided to place a delicious delicacy before their eyes.
『Is there any chance to see him?』
“Not yet. “I have a difficult relationship with the Magic Tower.”
『Then I guess I should make it.』
Elric had no idea what Mephisto was thinking.
But one thing was certain.
For the first time since Mephisto was released from the seal, he had a goal.
Elric was about to add that the Golden Lion is a veteran who has lived for over a hundred years, and that there are eight other lions under him who protect him, forming the ‘Lion Family’, but stopped.
From what I’ve said so far, this demon lord is already on fire.
“Anyway, the criminals came to chase someone, and it seems that in the process, all the passengers and even the yetis were eliminated. “I don’t want to leave any witnesses.”
『Who were you chasing?』
“I’m not sure, but there are a group of passengers who haven’t been found yet.”
Elric recalled the passengers wearing robes.
They consisted of a woman and four knights. They tried not to expose their faces as much as possible.
“They probably didn’t last long, so we’ll have to find them first.”
『To save me? Why?』
Mephisto asked as if he didn’t understand.
For demons, the concept of ‘helping’ is not that strong. Rather than individualistic tendencies, this was due to the notion that it was natural for the weak to be left behind.
“I’m not trying to save you.”
“then?”
“Just like that.”
“just?”
“yes. I just feel bad. Do you need any other reason?”
Elric asked that with calm eyes.
“no. No way.”
Stopping is a very good answer.
Mephisto smiled and answered like that.

Cham-chan-
There was no way for Chen, who was already lacking in numbers and stamina, to take on the 6 groups of Blue Lang at once.
The armor was broken, and there were deep wounds all over the body. Although he was covered in blood in an instant, they never inflicted serious wounds.
Hanul glanced around and shouted loudly.
“Miss, I know you are nearby. “If this continues, your loyalty will end up dead, so wouldn’t it be better for you to come out quickly?”
“Miss, can’t you… “Ugh!”
Chen tried his best to hold on, but the wound running through the back of his knee eventually forced his body to collapse.
“miss! Are you really okay with this person dying?”
Isabel couldn’t see this and tried to go out.
“It’s not possible.”
Ed held her firmly.
“But if this continues, Chen… !”
“It’s not just Chen. Isaac, Jad, Kun… Do you intend to make their deaths all in vain?”
“but… !”
“miss!”
Hanul’s voice rang again.
An eerie feeling, completely different from before.
Isabel and Ed’s eyes turned equally towards that direction.
Cheongrang’s sword was falling on Chen’s head, who was kneeling.
“stop!”
In the end, Isabel had to overcome Ed’s dissuasion and emerge from the rock.
Cheongrang’s sword stopped as if it were a lie, and a big smile appeared on Hanul’s lips. On the other hand, Chen and Ed’s faces turned white.
“miss… Why not… “Wow!”
Chen tried to shout something, but a kick to his head forced him to bury his face in the snow.
Hanul did not even look at Chen, who was inferior to him, but looked at Isabelle and sneered.
“If you were so obedient, you all wouldn’t have to suffer like this for over a month, right?”
Isabel bit her lower lip.
“Anyway, your goal is me, right? I’m done with just one. “Free them all.”
but.
Eat!

Hanul’s cynicism became deeper.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t think that will work.”
“… what?”
“It is the order of our superiors to kill all those involved in this matter and those who witnessed it and destroy any evidence of our involvement.”
“Then you guys, no way… ?”
“Weren’t you the Yetis the whole time you were running away and barely encountered any people?”
“… !”
“We’ve taken care of all the slash-and-burn villages around here, so no one knows we’re here. “If you hadn’t run away, wouldn’t these things have happened?”
“… .”
Isabelle’s fists trembled. The fact that innocent civilians were massacred because of him made his mind go blank.
“however… this! I guess there’s one more victim because of the young lady, huh? “You’re pitiful.”
Isabel quickly turned her head in the other direction.
Another shadow was shining this way.
I wanted to tell them to hurry and run away from here, but the owner of the shadow had already reached us through the blizzard.
however.
“It was here.”
Isabel’s eyes widened at the completely unexpected reaction.
Shouldn’t the average person be scared when they come across a scene of a stabbing?
But it looked as if it had been looking for this place… !
Faaah!
Isabelle’s thoughts did not last long.
Because the three blue rangers were already moving in that direction.
“Avoid!”
Isabel suddenly came to her senses and shouted in a startled voice.
“You bastards, you don’t even give me a chance to say anything. [Blow]!”
Shadow Elric laughed and lightly waved his hand in the air.
Although it was hard to see because it was obscured by the snowstorm, the seal of cruelty on the back of Elric’s hand was shining colder than ever.
and.
Whiiing!
I wondered if the snowstorm blowing in front of the Blue Rangers had suddenly become stronger.
So so so so-
I froze in the same position I was running.
They looked like they had no idea how they died.
“… !”
“… !”
“What is this…?” !”
Hanul’s eyes widen at this completely unexpected situation, and the remaining blue rangers all prepare to move in this direction.
but.
“【Pour out】.”
Elric was moving ahead of him.
Above their heads, a magic field was spread very widely and a new magic was activated.
The sight of hundreds of ice arrows raining down in the sky was enough to make Cheongrang disgusted.
“Stop it!”
Hanul managed to scream, but before Cheongrang could react, ice arrows rained down.
Kwakwakwak!
“Kaaak!”
“Ahhhh! my arm! My paaal!”
“No way… !”
Frozen limbs bounced into the air along with broken pieces of ice. Those who moved quickly tried to avoid them by quickly rolling on the floor, but the ice arrows changed direction as if they had eyes and rushed at those people as well.
A truly overwhelming power difference.
Isabelle, Chen, and others could only stare blankly, wondering if they were dreaming.
The sight of manipulating a blizzard while freely playing with magic seemed too unrealistic.
“This guy doesn’t care who you are? So, let’s bury it quietly without anyone knowing?”
“… !”
Isabel could tell that Elric’s words were a sarcastic remark about Hanul’s taunts to her a little while ago.
‘for a moment. That face… ?’
Then Isabel realized that Elric’s face was somehow familiar.
Why is the person who went missing when they first encountered the yetis here?
“Miss, you must avoid it!”
At that time, Ed seemed to think this was an opportunity, and he grabbed Isabelle’s arm and quickly tried to leave the place.
“Now, wait a minute… !”
The moment Isabel was about to say something.
At the place where countless ice chambers had fallen, Hanul was running towards Elric with his face distorted.
“I will kill you!”
Agile movements, as befits the leader of Cheongnang.
I was very angry because I was suddenly faced with an unexpected variable in a situation where I had achieved my goal.
Jiying-
The two auror chains created in the auror hole rotated furiously.
Whoops!
The sword he was holding in his hand made a clear sound as it was filled with the magic power welling up from the Auror chain.
Sword Howling.
The sword was shot out quickly along with a phenomenon symbolizing the ‘Advanced’ of the 2nd chain.
“【Open Arms】, 【Soar】!”
Elric leaned back and used a double spell to erect a ‘wall of ice.’
As the ground shook, a wall of ice rose several layers in front of Hanul.
Each time, Hanul’s movements became slower, and as ice arrows were aimed at blind spots from the sky, the wounds continued to increase.
A blizzard with a melting rate of 10% was beyond what he could handle.
In addition, the range of the magic field was narrowed and concentrated on Hanul.
When he finally reached where Elric was.
“Pray… Indian ink… second… !”
Hanul was covered in blood, breathing heavily, and fell on one knee.
Pow!
The remaining ice arrow shattered the back of the head, causing the headless body to fall helplessly into the snow.
“… !”
“… !”
“… !”
Isabel, Ed, and Chen opened their eyes wide at the reality, which they could not believe even after seeing it with their own eyes.
These guys, who had been struggling so hard, were wiped out so easily that they could not even hurt a single wizard.
Moreover, Ed and Chen, like Isabel, had already figured out who Elric was.
Before that, I didn’t know what to say because I thought Elric was running away from the yeti.
Should I say thank you? Or even some other greeting… ?
On the one hand, I couldn’t help but feel nervous because I couldn’t figure out Elric’s intentions. Perhaps this too could have been Paul Weil’s trick to deceive them.
at that time.
Elric looked at the corpses of the blue langur with an evil look, and his face became perplexed when he saw where Isabel and others were.
“Um, uh… .”
He too only thought about going after Hanul and others, and had no idea what to do after helping them.
I was scratching the back of my head, wondering what to say.
“It’s been a while… is?”
That’s how I greeted him.
* * *
From the moment I saw Elric.
Isabelle had only one thought.
‘That person… ‘It’s on a different level from us.’
There was a saying that usually referred to a person like that.
Wizards who gradually realized the laws of mutual understanding and gained the right to access the mana stream flowing into the natural world.
They break away from the existing magic system and begin to walk their own path.
Therefore, the magic they perform has a slightly different name.
The magic path.
It’s called ‘the magic road.’
The person who had reached the threshold where so many wizards had reached the point where they ended up collapsing was right in front of their eyes!
‘Mage… !’
Isabel’s astonishment became a silent echo and rang in her heart.
Wizard who swallowed talent
