The Returned Sword King Decided to Become a Tyrant Chapter 219
I will burn and set my soul ablaze (3)
“… … .”
Ss …
The magical power fired to summon the Magic Tower disappeared into thin air like melting snow.
It was as if the waves suddenly stopped transmitting, almost like a communication failure.
One of the Marquis Locagos’ eyebrows rose in displeasure.
‘… … Could it be that he was trying to sabotage?’
There are two cases where this situation occurs.
For example, it was limited to cases where the target of the call avoided magic power or blocked magic power in the middle.
However, if the opponent is a magician, there is no way for the inspector to block magic power in this space.
If I had noticed that from the beginning, I would have stepped forward.
“What’s going on? Weren’t you trying to show me something?”
“… … Tsk.”
‘I see. Then the Lord of the Tower must have participated in the battle.’
They were so absorbed in dealing with the incoming enemy forces that they probably didn’t notice the call.
The Marquis concluded as such and moved his magical power again. It was a magical power that contained a signal so strong that it could not be missed in a panic.
Woohoo!
Pot!
“… … !”
Ss …
But this time too, there was no return.
It was only then that the Marquis realized that this series of events was not normal.
‘Why on earth… … Even in the middle of a battle, there’s no way I wouldn’t notice this level of intensity!’
At that moment, the Marquis, who was flustered, suddenly saw a man who seemed to be holding back laughter.
“… … you.”
“Oh, I’m sorry. You seemed so flustered.”
“Could it be that you were the one who tricked the Lord of the Tower?”
The Marquis of Locagos’s face hardened.
The other person seemed to have anticipated this situation. It was because there was no other way to think about it.
But the other person gave an answer that was the exact opposite of what he expected.
“You’re talking nonsense? That’s ridiculous. In the first place, I’ve never even met that guy called the Magic Tower.”
“Then what the heck… … !”
“Isn’t this something that can be easily thought of?”
The man gave an endlessly bitter laugh.
“It wasn’t ‘me’ who did the talking, it was him.”
“What… … .”
“It’s not that he didn’t respond to the call, it’s that he didn’t do it. It was of his own free will.”
“How dare you!”
The Marquis’ eyes showed clear anger as he understood the meaning of those words.
……betrayal!
What he’s trying to say is no different from saying that Matapju betrayed his country!
“… … Oh yeah, you seem to really want to die since you keep talking about having a pierced mouth.”
Yes, it was not only an insult to my death sentence, it was an insult to the Federal Empire.
The Marquis raised his hands, trembling with anger, and began to gather his magical power.
“If that’s your wish, I’ll grant it! You can go see the Lord of the Tower after that!”
Quagwagwa!
Soon, the Marquis’ magical power swept through the space as if taking control of it.
‘Move!’
At the same time, the fingers are shaking.
ping!
“Ugh… …! Enemy! The enemy blocking the Empire’s path!”
Then, a thread of magical power stretched out from his fingers and moved the Knight Commander’s body.
The target is the enemy imprinted in our instincts… …!
“Kill me!”
Swish!
Kwakwang!
A leap unfolded that could not even be followed by human vision, and finally, two swords filled with life force clashed fiercely.
Buck! Buck!
Kwakwakwang!
In an instant, clouds of dust swirled everywhere.
It was only a clash of swords, but at first glance it looked like a bomb had exploded.
However, due to the continuous attacks and defenses even in the blurry vision, even the dust clouds are often pushed away.
The direct confrontation between the two knights began like that. Now, it was the wizard’s time.
“Ugh!”
Woohoo!
Shushu shuk!
The Marquis’ body joined the feast of constantly flashing aura blades.

Chijichijijik!
Kwakwakwang!
Lightning strikes in all directions!
The area around the Marquis’ right arm distorted, creating a chain of shock waves in the space it touched.
This was because intense electromagnetic waves distorted and destroyed the elements that made up the atmosphere.
All that immense influence was concentrated in one person.
Crackle! Crackle!
“Is that the power of the battle magician that the Federation Empire is proud of?”
Allen Esteban, who barely managed to pass the current, looked surprised.
While the two knights were engaging in an invisible exchange of attacks and defenses, I was amazed at the control of the magical power that was poured only on the enemy forces without affecting the allies at all.
But that wasn’t all.
Dismissed-!
This time, the staff on the Marquis’ left arm began to glow and emit magical power.
Chorrrrrrrr!
“Oh my.”
Then, magical power began to connect along the path that the right arm containing the brain had moved.
And then a magic circle appears!
The previous attack was just a decoy to hide the magic circle created by the right arm.
The real attack starts now!
“Haha! I let my guard down!”
Kwakwakwakwang!
Crackle! Crackle!
A huge thunderbolt struck the entire space that was thus cut off.
A deafening noise followed, followed by a cloud of dust greater than any before.
It was so powerful that the aftermath alone left elements still swirling in the atmosphere.
The essence of his honed brain magic, Giga Storm.
The Marquis was confident of victory the moment he saw that it had hit the bastard head-on.
‘At this rate, even you, the Sword Master, won’t be able to move properly!’
A force so powerful that it can even change the natural environment in an instant.
The only place safe from that blow was where his allies were standing, and he too would be lying on the ground, paralyzed from head to toe.
Phew!
“… … !”
But the sight that was soon revealed made the Marquis doubt his eyes.
“… … I see.”
“Yes, you. How on earth… …!”
Two healthy legs standing on the ground.
A sound armor that is said to have suffered no damage from the effects of the thunderbolt.
And finally, his body, without a single hair on it being damaged.
“Is this what it feels like when you experience it directly?”
The condition of the guy who was making fun of me was no different from the beginning!
The Marquis’s eyes began to waver.
‘That can’t be! Boo, I clearly confirmed that the magic worked!’
Swish!
The bewildered Marquis snapped his fingers again, and a cloudy black aura shot out behind the bastard.
In a situation where it was not known what the bastard was doing, it was a move to maximize the advantage of a one-on-many battle.
However.
Kwajik!
“Ugh, ugh… … !”
Phew!
dump-!
“… … !”
The king, who easily dodged the exploding aura, grabbed the knight commander by the neck.
Then, like a painting, he leisurely inserts a blood-red aura aimed at the heart.
As if to say that the previous fight was a joke.
The series of movements was so natural that the Marquis didn’t even realize the situation until the Knight Commander’s body fell to the ground.
“What, what are you… … .”
“You were a battle wizard, right? Using your superior magical powers to engage in close combat was quite an interesting method.”
Although confronting a knight head-on would have been tantamount to suicide for a wizard, he was a battle wizard who enjoyed close combat.
Thanks to his unique fighting style, he is capable of being just as powerful as a Sword Master in close combat…
but.
“I guess that means it’s comparable to being a knight.”
The king’s lips form a curve.
Yes, it is just at the same level. It doesn’t go beyond that.
Also, it did not go beyond the expected category or common sense.
Well then, the words were simple.
“Their power is no different from that of ants anyway. The result was already decided from the beginning.”
“… … !”
Swish!
visor!
“Ugh!”
The moment I realized that the thing had moved, I heard the sound of the ground being kicked.
He instinctively raised his staff to block it, but unlike his appearance of having swung it lightly, the Marquis’ body flew dozens of meters.
Alarm bells began to ring in his head as he straightened his posture.
‘Wow, he took my life before the Knight Commander could even react! He wasn’t just a simple Sword Master… … !’
Even if I was of sound mind, it was a sight that made no sense.
In addition, the defensive magic that had just been deployed in multiple directions was destroyed in an instant. The power was incredible. He quickly came to a conclusion.
‘We must join forces.’
Woohoo!
The movement of magical power reached its peak and instantly created a magic circle.
A magic circle of space travel.
That was the only way to get my body out of the bastard quickly.
‘We must retreat for now and join the Tower Lord… … .’
But the moment I threw myself into the magic circle that appeared, the bastard raised his right arm that was holding the sword.
“Huh!”
Could it be that he’s trying to throw a sword?!
The Marquis moved his right hand to create a shield to block the bastard’s attack.
… … No. I tried to create it.
“… … !”
If it weren’t for the left half of my body falling to the floor in vain, and my right arm remaining blankly beyond the disappeared magic circle.
“The teleportation… was cancelled?”
In the midst of a series of incomprehensible situations, the Marquis muttered blankly.
All I could tell from the fragmentary information was that an unknown power flowing from the bastard’s right arm had consumed his magic, and his spirit window had disappeared.
In this situation, there was no way to use magic anymore.
‘Oh, I’m dying!’
Ugh.
Blood gushed out from between the half-remaining flesh.
A revolving lantern-like image flashes before my eyes, suggesting death.
But there was still hope.
‘The teleportation has been installed to the place where the magic power of the Lord of the Tower is located!’
Was it because I instinctively followed the familiar magic?
Because the situation was so urgent, he didn’t notice it, but his executioner, Matapju, was definitely there.
So, soon He will notice the change and appear here!
Jerk- Jerk-
“… … .”
“Did you think you could run away?”
But even as the bastard approached with his sword drawn, the figure of the magician showed no sign of appearing.
No, rather, it seemed as if he had even thrown away the aftermath without any regrets. He had completely erased even the traces of himself that had appeared in the moment.
… … deliberately.
Also, systematically.
It meant one thing.
“Oh, why on earth… … .”
betrayal.
He really betrayed himself and his country and disappeared.
with a splash-
Meanwhile, the man’s footsteps approached the Marquis, whose left half was still standing.
The footsteps that stepped on the bloody water were very light.
“Well, thanks to you, Roel. Now I can teach that guy a new way of training.”
“Oh, Lord Matap… … Why… … .”
“Well, I don’t know.”
Phew!
“You don’t need to know because you’re going to die.”
“… … Keuk!”
The sensation of my head being pierced was, unfortunately, transmitted directly to my brain.
Even as he lay dying, the last sensation he felt was excruciating pain.
“Maybe he judged that there was no hope anyway.”
“… … .”
And the man laughed.
The meaning behind that cold gaze was clearly a mockery.
* * *
Woohoo!
Bam-!
“… … .”
A moment of time and space opened up, and parts of the body fell out. Then the magic circle of spatial movement disappeared.
The Federal Empire’s Matopju looked at it with indifferent eyes.
“Don’t you have to go help me?”
“… … .”
Matopju shakes his head excitedly at someone’s question.
It may have felt like a cold-hearted idea, but it was actually a reasonable thought.
“I can’t risk my safety on a life that’s as fleeting as that.”
“… … .”
“Even so, I am a very rational person. At least I know how to preserve my life.”
“I see.”
As Matapju turned his head, the Marquis’ magical power that had been dividing the space had disappeared.
The Marquis is dead. And there is no way to stop ‘the bastard’ anymore.
Perhaps even if he had been there, the flow would not have been different.
“So I am grateful to you, Sage of Magia.”
The old man standing across from the tower spoke. Lord Heimdall responded with an eyebrow raised.
“What does that mean?”
“If I hadn’t sensed your magical powers, which were my rival’s, long ago, I would have died there with you.”
To him, words like the safety of the empire or the lives of priests held no emotion.
No, even he himself was the same in the first place. To him, the word life itself was meaningless.
There is only one thing that matters.
The great truth and the end of magic. Nothing else mattered.
That’s why Matapju had no intention of participating in this meaningless fight from the beginning.
“If Magia’s magical power joins the enemy camp while we haven’t gathered enough troops, then this empire’s fate will surely be like a candle in the wind.”
“How conceited of you to say such a thing. You have received enormous support from the Empire so far, and yet you say such a thing?”
“Please tell me rationally. It’s a waste of time to get involved in something that has nothing to do with magic.”
The eyes of the towering monk who responded like that became cold.
“Well, if the Archmage of Esteban were to come here, I would be willing to risk my life to deal with him… … Unfortunately, it seems they are clearing out the west.”
Swish-
Within, the top master created a magic circle for teleportation with an emotionless expression.
“Ah, I’ll tell you in advance that all of the research materials from the Magic Tower have already been stolen. It was quite a lot, so it was difficult. It’s not a lie that we lack magical power.”
“I’m just trying to run away.”
“Running away? That’s ridiculous.”
Woohoo!
And the body of the Matapju was enveloped in a halo of light.
“I simply chose to survive until I saw the ultimate evil of the devil. Even if it meant rotting my flesh with the help of dark magic.”
“… … .”
That was the last message he left.
Pot!
“… … .”
The archmage, left alone, looked at the place where he had disappeared.
Since he was a prominent figure among the great magicians, it was difficult to hinder his spatial movement.
Moreover, even he, who was called a wise man, was not a match for him in terms of magical power rather than knowledge.
however.
-I will trample and defile everything. Until there is no more trace of them left here.
“… … Even though you disappeared, I don’t think things will go your way.”
Lord Heimdall took out an object hidden in the hem of his robe.
Was it called ancient detecting magic?
Unfortunately, it was pointing in the direction where the man was, carrying the magic power of the man who had disappeared before my eyes.
And it will not be your place to condemn it in the distant future.
“Allen Esteban.”
Soon, Lord Heimdall’s gaze turned towards the direction of the palace. To be exact, he looked at the back of a man walking towards it.
