Talent-Swallowing Magician Chapter 258

Episode 258

decisive battle

“ha… ha… !”

Batu knelt down on one knee and let out a sigh.

Every time he did that, a lot of white breath came out. On the contrary, the demonic energy surrounding him became more vivid and was now reaching up to the high sky.

“f*ck, eat.”

Batu’s face suddenly became completely pale, and his blue veins were clearly visible.

Even though scales covered almost its entire body, it had an appearance that made it look like it could no longer be considered human.

Their eyes were still as cruel as ever.

Kwaaaaang!

Batu tightened his legs again and kicked the ground.

The snowflakes covering his body broke one by one and scattered on the floor, leaving traces of broken ice where he stepped.

Elric could sense that it was his last resistance.

“Now I’ll step in.”

At that time, Damir’s voice rang out instead of Chepeshu.

The 6th Chapter of Winter and the commander of Mervinger, who was called the ‘Iron Commander’.

“It’s all over, but you’re trying to put a spoon on it.”

“Hey, as long as you enjoy it, that’s it? “I think I need to get some outside air, too.”

When Chepeş acted as if he couldn’t get out of the way, Damir screamed. It was quite unfair.

Eat!

Chepeshu laughed lightly, as if his friend’s reaction was amusing, and calmed down quietly.

And then Damir appeared and attempted to possess him.

At that moment, Elric felt as if his body had become very strong.

Although it was clearly the same body, the senses became much more detailed and every muscle movement felt vivid.

“I don’t think you have anything to learn since you have already surpassed my magic skills, so there is only one thing I can show you.”

[What is it?]

“strength.”

Damir laughed cheerfully.

“Immense power can crush any resistance.”

Elric overlapped the dual swords he held in both hands into one. Then the sword body became one and its size increased significantly.

Two-handed bastard sword. Like Batu, it took the form of a great sword.

Although it was quite heavy, Elric held it with one hand and lifted it from bottom to top.

The operation of horsepower was different from usual.

It flowed not to the weapon, but to the main joints, skeleton, and muscles that wield the weapon.

The magical energy that went into each cell and each capillary was enough to amplify the existing power by more than twice.

This is ‘Iron Transform’. This was the reason why Damir was able to stand on par with the other Winter Chapters even with his limited magic skills when he was young.

Chaaaaang!

As Batu’s sword strike collided violently, shock waves once again swept everywhere.

Batu’s body swayed greatly.

This was because he had already lost a significant amount of his stamina, and Elric’s strength after completing his Iron Man transformation was definitely not something to be taken lightly.

Paaaa-

In addition, Elric had already solved <Boramae’s Spirit> based on Gangseojutsu.

Chop clap!

Elric’s movements were too fast, and too harsh.

“and! They’re already applying it… ? “I think I know why Nahatram and Mia reacted that way.”

Just like with Chepeshu, Damir muttered in awe when he saw Elric like that.

Iron Man Shoes are very useful in combat, but they require detailed control skills.

Since I hadn’t taught Elric how to become an Iron Man yet, I tried to take over this part myself.

Elric was fully aware of the sensation he felt when he swung his sword a moment ago.

All the essentials were stolen!

In a way, it was as if Damir had taken away the achievement that he had spent his entire life making, so he couldn’t help but feel a sense of disappointment.

At the same time, I was curious about how to handle this.

It seems that this is the child we have been waiting for for a long time.

That thought crossed my mind.

bang!

Elric struck down his sword sharply.

Batu stumbled again and was pushed back a couple of steps. Broken ice pieces flew into the air.

“not… !”

Wedge-

Next, I aimed for the lower body by drawing diagonally.

Batu tried to use all his strength to push it away with his great sword, but was pushed back again. Tsk tsk. Unable to withstand the accumulated damage, eventually cracks were seen spreading across the body of the great sword.

“Okay… !”

This time, ice powder flew out. It was a trace left by Seoljungmae.

Bang, bang, bang-

Elric attacked Batuu repeatedly, and each time, Batuu continued to bounce off the attacks while fluttering around like a paper doll swaying in the wind.

“I am… !”

Meanwhile, the snowflakes repeatedly covered Batuu and then broke apart. Before they knew it, pieces of ice were constantly moving around the two people.

“Somehow… Must protect… !”

In it.

Elric was able to catch a glimpse of the various illusions created by the ice shards.

It was a fantasy that leaked out from Batu… It was a piece of thought.

-Batu was there.

In the form of a very young child.

Jerk. Jerk. For some reason, I don’t know why, but young Batu was walking aimlessly through the white snowy field. A place where snow flurries fiercely and there is not a single house to be found nearby.

It’s a dangerous situation where if you leave it like that, you could just freeze under the snow.

The child kept walking and walking. Long footprints were left behind where he left, then he disappeared again, buried in the snow.

Then.

dump!

Young Batu must have been unable to hold back his hunger and collapsed, unable to move any further.

As if trying to quietly cover him, the snow turned into a blanket and covered the child.

-Another Batu was there.

A face that looks like one is about seventeen years old. Unlike his childhood, when he seemed innocent, his face was full of defiance back then.

He was already an orphan from the beginning of his memory, had no friends or family, and had no choice but to embrace his venom in order to survive in the rugged mountains.

Of course, the kids his age who thought he was a ‘warrior’ and were already putting strength on his shoulders didn’t like Batu like that.

A man who had not properly learned the fighting methods of great warriors was already a thorn in their eyes as he was already defeating them.

So the children decided to break Batu’s spirit.

If you make them realize their subject, there will be no more creeping.

Deciding so, he grabbed the blade, trapped Batu, and began trampling on it.

At first, Batu rushed at him tenaciously and knocked down one or two guys… There were bound to be limitations to a body that could not yet handle breathing properly.

In the end, I fall to the floor.

The children got very angry and started trampling on it with their feet.

Batu crouched down and protected his head with both arms, but his eyes did not break.

-The scenes depicted in the other fragments all had a similar atmosphere.

Batu was alone, and there were no people around him.

nevertheless.

He didn’t break down.

He just silently swung his sword again and again.

It seemed like he was a person firmly entrenched in something evil.

so that.

Elric felt one thing as he quickly looked through all the fragments.

Lonely and lonely.

and… It’s desolate.

It was Batu who lived in a place that could truly be called ‘winter’.

but.

Batu never thought of himself as being trapped in ‘winter’.

This was because I firmly believed that ‘spring’ would come someday.

Warm sunlight always hovered around him.

―“Hey, are you okay?”

There was a voice heard for the first time from the child who had fallen in the snow. A voice heard from a child who was thinking about whether she was going to die like this or whether she was going to go back to her mother’s arms.

At first I thought it was an auditory hallucination, but when I forced myself to look up. I could see the owner of the voice.

It was a blind girl who seemed to be about the same age as herself.

―“You got hurt again. “Don’t fight.”

There was a child who handed a handkerchief to Batu, who was covered in wounds and was trying to get up after being trampled by other children, while scolding him instead of scolding him.

Batu took the handkerchief as if snatching it from him and brushed the sand off his face little by little.

At the same time, I grumbled here and there at the thought of being caught by the person I least wanted to see my embarrassing side.

I boasted as much as I could, saying that I had looked after them, that if I had made up my mind to rush in, they would have been the ones who got hurt, and that I held back because I thought it would make a fuss for no reason.

The owner of the handkerchief simply nodded and agreed that you were right.

“So, don’t fight? Understand?”

And the answer that came back was always the same.

―It was a world where everything was bleak, but Batu was able to find his own happiness even in it.

In addition to the blind girl who always looked after her, Mr. Haute who shared meat with her when she asked if she was hungry, Ms. Sarn who smiled warmly and told her to come play when she was bored, and Amra who became her close friend… .

Even though he was an orphan, there were people who supported him, and because there were like-minded people, Batu was eventually able to reach the position he wanted.

And then. Even the friends who bullied him. Even the tribe members who tried to abandon themselves. Everyone bowed their heads and asked for forgiveness.

Batu forgave them all and hugged them deeply.

If Batu had been the only poison left in ‘winter’, he would have taken revenge on them somehow.

Because Batu was waiting for ‘spring’ to come, I did not want to give them the same winter.

And now.

Batu was trying to somehow bring ‘spring’ to the tribe trapped in ‘winter’.

but.

result-.

Whoa whoa!

All of the ice shards that Batu was spitting out exploded at once. This was because Elric’s sword had suddenly become lodged in Batu’s right chest.

Damn it. As the ice poison spread at a rapid rate, it even froze the demonic energy that had made him a mystery.

“why… !”

Batuu glared at Elric as blood poured out.

Although he couldn’t continue his conversation properly, Elric seemed to know what he wanted to say.

Why can it be you and not me?

Batuu also knew that Elric lived in ‘winter’. A descendant of a prestigious family that collapsed. He was criticized as a shame, but in the end, he rose up on his own.

Batuu and Elric. The two had many similarities.

But Batuu fell here, and Elric stood.

What is the reason?

“What is the reason? “There is no such thing.”

But Elric only responded indifferently.

Batuu’s trembling gaze was fixed on Elric.

“It’s just that I was a little better, and you were a little less good. “I’m much better than you think.”

A playful answer.

But his serious face was just funny to Batu.

“Something like that… “It was.”

Eat!

Batu laughed lightly.

perhaps.

If only we hadn’t met enemies like this. If only we had met a little earlier. It occurred to me that we might have become good friends.

and.

“… .”

Batu’s face fell limply as he smiled slightly.

Tap!

A single piece of snow fell lightly from the sky onto the tip of Batu’s nose.

Real eyes, not ones made by Elric.

It was the first snow.
