Talent-Swallowing Magician Chapter 65

Episode 65

to the north

“Ma, ma, stop!”

The demons, who were as stiff as ice, tried to open their demonic energy at the sound of someone urgently shouting.

but.

“It’s late, bastards. 【Sit down】.”

The snowstorm that had surrounded the lobby on the first floor landed heavily along the collapsed floor.

The ice sheet spread, and ice thorns suddenly rose up in various places. In no time, the third basement level became a hell covered in ice.

The chaos grew uncontrollable due to the screams of the demons who were unlucky enough to be pierced by ice thorns.

Elric flew straight towards him.

“die!”

The demon with a vicious look raised its claws and swung roughly at Elric.

“【Opening of arms】.”

As the magical arts began to work in earnest, the ghost feeling arose spontaneously and mingled with the mind’s eye.

‘Right diagonal!’

Elric twisted his body in the air in the direction pointed by the anglerfish.

Then, the demon’s claws passed over Elric’s face just in the nick of time.

“Guys like you extras.”

As soon as Elric landed, he swept the floor with his right leg.

“Why is there nothing special about all of them?”

As expected, this is the direction Agwigam taught me.

And it was mixed with the martial arts movements that I had trained while learning Gangchejutsu.

Wow!

“Aaaah!”

The demon fell backwards due to Elric’s agile movements, which were reminiscent of the beastmen.

Also, why was my leg strength so strong? It felt like my shin bone below my knee had been completely shattered, and it hurt terribly.

But his suffering did not last long.

Because I lost consciousness before that.

“It’s noisy, so why don’t you just shut up and shut up?”

Pow!

Elric laughed coldly as he thrust an ice arrow straight into the snout of the creature that had fallen to the ground.

The guy trembled once.

Passu-

It was broken into pieces like a sand castle swept away by waves.

Tsutsutsu!

And all at once, the powder was sucked into the shadow raised by the seal of ferocity.

I felt that the thoughts inside the seal of ferocity were okay.

This time too, the guy came forward and swallowed it.

‘But I absorbed quite a bit of the seal earlier, so why is it still the same?’

For a moment, Elric had that thought for just a moment.

Even though they had killed quite a few demons since they invaded here, no other seals were engraved on the backs of their hands and forearms.

Although the seal of ferocity absorbed most of the seal and demon energy, it did not swallow all of it.

I wonder if there are different types of ferocious seals needed to grow, and it felt like I was becoming more and more picky.

In that case, the seal that he didn’t eat should be engraved as is… Because that won’t happen.

‘I’ll have to check it separately later.’

Elric quickly scanned his surroundings, thinking that it might have something to do with the arrangement.

Because the battle wasn’t over yet.

However, the demons on the second basement floor were unable to attack.

Everyone had a clear look of fear.

Some people were peeking at the spot where the guy who had just died was.

‘Was the guy who died earlier an executive?’

Somehow, he was a lot stronger than the others.

‘Of course, it wasn’t enough to do anything to me.’

Elric was completely self-absorbed by the anger(?) welling up in his heart.

“Aren’t you coming? then.”

Therefore, Elric was able to once again explode the seal of cruelty to a larger extent.

“I’ll go.”

bang!

Damn it!

It hit the ground hard and jumped forward.

“Uh, huh? “It’s tilting!”

“Ugh!”

Cracks spread along the ice like a spider web in no time. The demons who were barely able to maintain their posture all lost their balance and began to flounder.

The moment when you feel a significant hindrance to your movement, such as slipping on the ice or falling into a crack.

Puff puff puff!

The ice arrow was sure to land squarely in the uvula of those guys.

The heads of the demons were smashed one after another, blood and brain drain pouring out. The once white and transparent ice field was covered with red flowers.

“He, he, he, protect the safe!”

“Even if you lose, stop him, you bastards!”

“Is that there?”

And Elric was able to find the place where the totem was stored as he wanted while watching the demons struggling.

Because there is nothing more accurate than their tearful (?) efforts to somehow protect the treasure even in the midst of chaos.

In the end, Elric was able to reach the safe in one go by cutting down the guys in his way one by one.

“【Explode】.”

The safe door, which was closed tightly, was frozen and then broken with all my force, so I was able to open it very easily.

Inside were about 30 totems, a considerable amount of documents, and a small amount of gold and silver treasures.

“bingo.”

The corner of Elric’s mouth caught in his ear.

From the looks of it, the totem was so full of life that it even contained a piece of the seal, as if it was intended as a gift to the upper management.

The pile of documents looked like instructions they had received, and the gold and silver treasures were given as activity expenses.

Perfect evidence that would make the Inspector General roll their eyes when they saw it.

‘Did I get hit in the head with an arrow? ‘Why am I giving you this?’

What Patran and others were doing was unlucky, but to Elric in the first place, the imperial family was a group he could never like.

They only praised themselves when they were needed, saying they were famous magicians and heroes of the Great Demon War, but in reality, they were the ones who neglected them in normal times and even encouraged their downfall.

‘I use what I need, and sell what I don’t need at a very high price.’

Elric is trying to reach into the safe.

『Keep your promise! Otherwise, I don’t think there will be any business in the future!』

Mephisto shouted in an urgent tone.

Looking at the wide-open eyes, it seemed like if I threw all the totems to the seal of ferocity this time, it would be a really big problem.

‘The seal of ferocity has grown considerably. If I feed it a little more, I think it might be possible to achieve ‘evolution’ or something… hmm! ‘It’s unfortunate, but I guess there’s nothing we can do about it.’

In fact, a part of Elric wanted to pretend it was a mistake and increase his ferocity seal even more.

Thinking that it would probably have to be postponed to a later date, I made the announcement.

“【Be contained】. And be absorbed.”

Before leaving, Elric opened the magic tool ‘Subspace Pouch’ that Augustine had specially given him and swept out all the documents and gold and silver treasures.

The right hand spread wide and began to absorb the totem’s magic energy and seal pieces.

Hwaaah-

Then, as if it had been waiting, the shadow burrowed into the safe.

Wow!

The shadow bounced around the entrance as if it had hit an invisible wall.

this… What are you doing?

As the shadow spread wide apart, the jagged teeth were clearly revealed. Demon King Hyul’s thoughts turned hostile towards Elric.

but.

“Shut up and go in, right?”

Elric growled as if he would not lose to such a guy.

In fact, he was not happy with the way the seal of ferocity was acting as it pleased without his control.

Still, it was a seal he had acquired, and he was growing rapidly, so he just left it alone.

If the seal was nothing more than a parasite that went against its owner’s will and did whatever it wanted, he had the intention of just removing it.

Of course, if that happens, Augustine, who wants to compete with the Demon King Hul, will go on a rampage.

However, as an Elric, no matter how sharp a weapon he could have, he would never have it next to him if that weapon could threaten him.

And on the other hand, wasn’t he the head of the Mervinger family at the time, who was even called the natural enemy of humans?

What if you can’t control thoughts that will make you no more than a ghost, let alone a demon lord?

‘That is truly embarrassing. Even Mephie can’t treat me carelessly. Where do you get the baby that falls for a long time even if it falls off?

If Mephisto read Elric’s thoughts, he would go on a rampage, asking when he did that, but Elric really thought that way.

And after reading Elric’s thoughts, Hyul’s thoughts remained still for a long time.

There’s nothing I can do about it yet.

Soon it calmly sank into the shadows and disappeared.

There was still a calm laughter mixed in the tone of voice.

From that alone, Elric could tell that the guy would no longer run wild.

Tsutsutsu-

Thanks to this, the magic energy and seal pieces in the totem were sucked into my fingertips one by one.

“ha ha ha! Magi, Magi is coming in! Finally, I can take a peek at that heinous Azazel’s seal… ! hmm?”

Mephisto burst into laughter, but stopped mid-sentence and frowned.

Clearly, he is absorbing the totem at a fast and steady rate… Strangely still, nothing came through with the seal of original sin.

Then, Mephisto belatedly realized that Elric was staring at him and smiling evilly.

It was the same smile he showed when he said he was going to completely destroy the Inspection Bureau and the remnants of the demons.

『Yes, you guy! What on earth are you going to do again?』

[Give it to me.]

“what!”

[Give me information about the trigger first. Otherwise, I can’t give it to you.]

『Didn’t I tell you! You have to give it first so that the king can give it to you… !』

[That was then, and this is now.]

『Are you going to say it like a man?』

[Either you don’t like it or not.]

『Shit!』

Mephisto had to curse again.

As always.

He was Elric’s favorite.

“What? “Inspector Bureau agents found an underground safe?”

Suen Garot was shocked by the report that his subordinate suddenly posted.

“How on earth do they know that place… !”

The underground vault had been hidden in a very clever way.

Security is also very thorough.

Those who qualified for entry were either close associates whom he particularly cared for or a few high-ranking figures sent by the organization.

So, even if I actually handed over the mansion to the inspection bureau, I was planning on secretly visiting it later.

But that place is being robbed!

“There is no time! “You must avoid it as quickly as possible!”

Suen Garot thought he should run to the third basement floor where the safe was located right away, but he had to grit his teeth as his subordinate desperately tried to dissuade him.

“Spy! There was a spy within the organization! Otherwise, there’s no way I could have been caught in such a vain… !”

“The Inspection Bureau will soon be surrounding the entire mansion! “Hurry up!”

“Shit!”

If only the driver who was said to have left from headquarters had left as soon as possible… !

If that had been the case, this tragedy would not have occurred.

But no matter how much you regret it, the situation will not change.

Even if I had to face disciplinary action in the future, I planned to get rid of myself first.

Once you survive, shouldn’t you be able to hope for the future?

“Inspection Bureau, Inspector General! I hate you guys so much! It’s hateful! No matter what you do, you just want to kill us. I’m so disgusted that I just want to kill you all! someday! “One day, I will tear you all apart with my own hands and kill you!”

Suen Garot became angry and tried to leave.

but.

Kwaaaaang!

An explosion much more violent than any other occurred, and the entire wall of the room he was in exploded.

From the sky, five agents very nimbly attempted to break into the interior.

Like shadows swimming in the darkness, the agents quickly eliminated the demons who were confused by the explosion and reached their target, Suen Garot.

Qarring-

However, they had to widen the gap again due to the sudden burst of demon energy ripples.

Only one person was able to casually cut it apart and collide with Suen Garot, who had already completed his transformation into a demon.

Chaeaeang!

The agent’s sword was blocked by sharp claws.

After seeing who the opponent was, Suen Garot distorted his face viciously.

“… Patran!”

“I heard someone said Suen Garot. Was it you, Kaya?”

Underneath the black mask, the corners of Patran’s eyes twitched greatly.

“Good. “Now I can finally catch what used to run away like a rat.”

“It’s not enough that they planted a spy in the organization, but they even tampered with the safe. Who on earth are the rats?”

safe?

Patran tilted his head at the words whose meaning he could not understand.

“Well, if you cut off all your hands and feet and interrogate him, he’ll blow up on his own, so it probably doesn’t matter.”

Soon, I didn’t think it was a big deal and increased my magic power. An aura was clearly visible on the tip of the sword she was holding.

“Eusa Patran, from now on, I will carry out the execution of the traitor Kaya on behalf of the empire, the imperial family, and His Majesty the Emperor.”

“gibberish! “I will kill you right here!”

Suen Garot, or rather, the demon Kaya, lashed out at Patran, who was treating her as if she were prey, and activated the seal.

Cuckoo… !

The mansion shook violently as if it was about to collapse due to the clash of magical power and demonic energy.
