Part 2 Episode 54
evil spirit
“Is this really all there is?”
Before we knew it, the battle had become much more intense than before.
When Augustine shouted, throwing up one of his legs, Hyl frowned in annoyance.
Crrrrr… !
Normally, I would have been able to recover right away, but I had already lost my strength and recovery was not easy.
He just barely managed to block Augustine’s attack.
Kwaaaaang-
Kurrrrr!
In the subsequent blow, about half of Hyl’s body exploded.
Shadows fluttered in all directions like blood.
Sassy liquid.
Sassy liquid.
Hyul was already breathing heavily.
Just maintaining existence seemed quite difficult.
“This will be the second time.”
Augustine raised his hand high to deliver the final blow. White eyes opened wide on his palm, and his magic swirled.
The tightly condensed magic sphere blazed as if it would explode at any moment.
Wow!
Hyul also seemed to sense danger and roared at the sky, but the midnight sun had already encroached on the entire world.
Hyul’s actions were nothing more than a desperate struggle.
It was just when it seemed like Hyul was going to fall apart.
Tsutsutsutsu-
Suddenly, all the shadows around him, including Hul, started moving in the other direction.
“What happened… !”
Augustine narrowed his brows, turned his head in the direction the shadow was moving, and ended up laughing.
her!
This was because the place where the shadows gathered was on Elric’s side.
Sigh.
Elric was looking this way and smiling strangely.
But that wasn’t the only thing that surprised Augustine.
Not only was magic flowing from Elric’s body, but also magic energy that had never been seen before.
Although he didn’t show it much on the outside, Augustine was quite impressed on the inside.
‘Of course, I am a bastard. Whose disciple are you, hehehe!’
A place to fight like this was created to check personal grudges and newly researched magic fighting skills.
But the main reason was that I wanted Elric to gain enlightenment.
But it seems that he got something much bigger than he had hoped for.
‘It’s not like I was hoping for it. ‘You’re so smart.’
At that moment, Elric’s shadow swayed greatly.
Paaaaat!
A shadow climbed over Elric and covered his whole body, taking on the shape of a beast.
It was as if another being was with him.
Demonic energy and magical power collide unstablely.
It seemed like something mysterious was happening.
Elric looked directly at Augustine and said.
“Master. From now on, I will join you.”
Unexpected words.
But nothing could have been more agreeable to Augustine.
“Ha ha ha ha ha! That’s good. “Let’s give it a try.”
“thank you.”
As soon as I finish speaking.
Paaaat!
Augustine’s new form seemed to have disappeared, but then suddenly appeared behind Elric.
The thin hand blade was aimed sharply at Elric’s back.
Blink! Blink!
At that moment, all the seals covering Elric’s body glowed brilliantly and transformed into the shape of a beast.
and.
Quaaaaaaaaaaa!
A tremendous roar shook the canyon.
Rumble-
The aftershocks seemed like they would never end.
* * *
“Oh go… .”
Elric groaned while lying on the bed.
It’s hard to stay still in the same position, so I just moved slightly to change my position.
Immediately, the pain that throbbed throughout my body felt like death.
In the end, Elric had no choice but to return to his original posture and stretch out again.

Mephisto, who was watching the scene right next to him, clicked his tongue in disapproval.
『Tsk tsk, you idiot. Trying to use the power of a demon lord without any preparation.』
It was talking about the battle with Augustine.
After Elric gained enlightenment, he immediately tested his strength.
From the newly learned magic and how to use seals to the new magic arts that I learned by seeing with my own eyes.
He used his newly acquired abilities to the best of his ability.
And the result was defeat.
No matter how many new abilities I awakened, it was impossible to defeat Augustine right away.
However, this did not mean that there were no results at all.
It was a bit of a stretch, but thanks to that, I started to get a sense of how to use both magic and magic fighting skills.
However, the reward for using that much power was clear.
『You act so proud and it’s so ugly. I can’t even move a finger. Giggling.』
I haven’t been able to move at all since the battle ended.
“please… .”
“why? Is there anything you want to say?』
“Doc… Hit it… .”
“Nope? I don’t like it. I don’t like it? What should I do if I hate it? Do you want to keep teasing me? “I’m dying to keep making fun of you like this, right?”
“… .”
flag!
Elric wanted to make Mephisto shut his mouth right away with his words.
If I tried to force my magic, the pain would come again, so I couldn’t do that.
Thanks to Shina’s seal, physical recovery was quick, but there was nothing that could be done about mental fatigue and exhaustion.
Mephisto did not stop standing next to him, as if he would never miss the first opportunity(?) he had in a long time.
For Elric, it was truly uncomfortable.
Looking at him like that, who on earth would think he was the Great Demon King who defeated the last great Dragon King? .
When I was alone and making resolutions for the future and letting go of my anger.
It wasn’t just Mephisto who was scolding from the sidelines.
Winter Chapter 6 was also nagging me tirelessly.
“Aren’t you really crazy? I wasn’t crazy because I wanted to die. For the first time in a while, that devil said the right thing. “It looks good.”
“No matter how much I think about it, I think the current matriarch is crazy.”
“sympathy. Not at all behind. I don’t think so. Super simple.”
After that, my head was pounding because of the nagging noises that kept coming and going.
It’s even better than the Golden Lion.
Elric closed his eyes as if he was bothered.
Of course, there was a reason they did this.
It was used by amplifying the magic power and the power of the seal.
Even though Shin-Ah’s seal was working, it was an impossible thing to do.
“I’m telling you, next time, at least say something.”
“Wouldn’t that be the only way we could help?”
“Ah, nyeye nyeye.”
All Elric could do was pout his lips and respond.
This is ridiculous. How can I think that I can completely contain myself with a mere human vessel?
Hul peeked out from the shadows and nodded. It was not the face of an animal we often see, but an appearance similar to the anglerfish I had seen in my memory.
It was to the point where I wondered if this was really the man who had been so maddened and half-dead before.
If you, the host, die, I die too, so I hope you’ll be careful.
Elric could only laugh.
“At least you don’t do that, right?”
I saved the life of someone who was almost dead, and they fought back.
What will be the difference if I take a little more of your side?
Hehehe. Hul, perhaps feeling a little embarrassed himself, smiled sheepishly and slowly entered the shadow.
Then, he just opened his eyes and asked.
by the way. Why did you really save me?
If he had stayed still, he would have been killed by Augustine, but there was no need to save him.
As Augustine said, demons are just a kind of ‘phenomenon’. Strictly speaking, if Jinmyeong was not damaged, he was not completely dead.
Nevertheless, Elric deliberately called in Hyul and Shadow to stop the battle.
Hyul had been thinking about this for a while, but he couldn’t understand it at all, so he asked.
There was no way Mervinger, who was eliminating demons, would have helped him.
“Oh, that?”
Elric answered Hul’s question indifferently.
“There’s no particular reason. “I didn’t save you.”
then?
“Wouldn’t we need at least one more power to deal with monsters like the Golden Lion?”
The enemies Elric will face in the future are beings that go beyond common sense.
That was the case with the Golden Lion, which was the first thing that came to mind.
Even using the eponymous vision and triple casting, it was only possible to move it one step.
Even now that I had mastered the magic and new magic fighting techniques, it was still unclear whether I would be able to properly deal with him.
That’s why it was necessary.
Just a little more power.
Even if it is the power of a demon.
“The level of the seal has been raised, but you can’t reset it again, right?”
Of course, it wasn’t just for that reason.
The woman I saw in my memory.
This was because I still remembered the last look in her eyes that showed her warmth to Hul for the first time.
‘Maybe the reason why Hyul kept following that person’s will… .’
Elric thought for a long time and swallowed it halfway.
This is just Hyul’s impression.
Because it wasn’t something that could be determined carelessly.
However, thanks to this, I gained an understanding of Hyul and was able to unlock the power of the Demon King.
It was clear that it would come in handy in the future.
In the future, in addition to the Golden Lion, one day you will also be able to directly deal with great demon kings like Lilith.
‘Maybe even Mephie… !’
Elric thought so and turned his attention to Mephisto next to him.
He glared at Elric as if asking what he was looking at.
“What?”
“no. nothing.”
“why? Have you been pouting at the king all this while?』
“It’s not like that.”
『You’re right you’re upset.』
“It’s not really like that, is it?”
『Jeung-mul-g-reung-g-ne-ig-etc.?』
“… “Do you keep doing this?”
『Are you yelling like that?』
“Oh, kinda!”
『Okay!』
“Oh, really!”
Elric had to vent his anger for a long time while scratching his head.
* * *
Late at night.
Giliti headed to a cliff carrying a gourd filled with alcohol.
Augustine was sitting there alone, looking at the moon.
And right behind it, traces of the fierce battle that had taken place before were clearly visible.
“Looking at it again, it’s so… .”
Giliti clicked her tongue as she looked at the completely messed up ground.
dump!
Then he sat down right next to Augustine and handed him a gourd.
“How are you feeling?”
“I’m always in bad shape. “My stomach hurts every day.”
Augustine curled the corners of his mouth, took the gourd and drank it.
Big!
He frowned and wiped the corners of his mouth.
“It tastes good. “Where did you get it?”
“Well, I soaked it myself. “Isn’t that good?”
“I like it.”
Giliti looked proud of Augustine’s praise.
Augustine took another drink and returned the gourd.
Gility also took a sip and opened his mouth.
“Anyway, would you like Elric to achieve something?”
“then.”
When the story about Elric came up, Augustine’s expression brightened.
I never thought it would grow that much in just one day. Even thinking about it now, it was a speed that left me amazed.
‘I was just going to show you a little bit of my new research. Does this mean that all of our funds have been lost again?’
Because of this, it was an added bonus that they had a hard time avoiding the stones thrown by the elders and guests.
“Certainly a genius is a genius.”
“I’m not even an ordinary genius. Have you ever seen a guy like that before?”
“Nothing.”
Even though I have lived for quite a long time, I have never seen a wizard like Elric.
Augustine suddenly felt fortunate that Elric was his student.
“by the way. “I think we’ve had some trouble.”
“Hanpuri?”
Augustine stopped drinking and threw the gourd at Giliti as if he was in a bad mood.
“Is it okay? “Don’t even mention that guy.”
Just killing him once or twice won’t go away the anger he’s built up.
If it weren’t for Elric, I wanted to go back right away and tear Hyul apart a thousand times, ten thousand times.
Still, the resentment that remained in my heart could never be relieved.
Giliti smiled bitterly and picked up the gourd.
“Now let go of that friend too.”
His eyes were fixed on Augustine’s left arm, which was tightly wrapped in bandages.
set.
The original owner of the left arm.
He was also the reason Giliti, who was a wild man in his youth, joined the Free Revolutionary Army and was also the reason he came out.
Also, it was thanks to Set that he and Augustine became blood brothers.
The three of them were once idiots who walked around together, thinking the world was small.
Although we can’t be together now.
Thinking about old times, Gility poured a drink into her mouth.
Is it because the scenery is nice? It tasted good as it went down my throat.
It was a time when we exchanged drinks several times while thinking about old times.
Augustine opened his mouth with a somewhat serious expression.
“… That guy. “They said he came.”
At those words, Giliti’s hand that was bringing the gourd to his mouth stopped.
That guy.
There was only one guy mentioned here.
The head of the Free Revolutionary Army, known to have been kept under wraps.
At one time, Giliti was also a member of the revolutionary army, so he had a connection with him.
“I heard it’s creeping up to the ecliptic. What are you going to do?”
“Well, let’s come.”
Giliti made a strange expression and muttered softly.
Wizard who swallowed talent
