Episode 146. The starting point of the waves.
As soon as I heard Hagen’s request, I woke up from my dream and returned to reality.
I just blinked once, and a huge chain made of mana was flying in front of me.
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-.
“… “You’re making me do troublesome things.”
In fact, once this incident was over, both Kangrada and Gangret were planning to break off their relationship.
That’s what I went through with this war with in mind, but you suddenly ask me to take them to a safe place?
Kaang!
I blocked Hagen’s chains with my sword.
The force pressing me down was so heavy that it could be compared to the monsters I faced in the upper levels of the tower in my previous life.
This is considered to be on a similar level to an apostle, or at best, stronger than the guys I faced.
This means that the power of the forbidden 10-circle magic is strong.
‘You damn bastard.’
Whenever I tell you to take Gangret and run away.
Are you trying to kill me now?
‘Or at least don’t ask for it.’
Moreover, its attacks are not only powerful but also very wide-ranging. If I don’t properly receive the attack, Strange’s knights in the castle could also suffer damage.
‘Can not be done.’
If things go that way, the damage to the troops will be too great.
We haven’t even finished off Glazer’s main force yet, and if they are defeated by just one Hagen, this operation will be tantamount to defeat.
‘no.’
Not only the failure of the operation, but also the situation where this war could lead to their victory.
“Whoa-”
And, what happened while I was momentarily unconscious, Gangret and Gangrad were with Hagen on the castle.
Their appearance is like a caterpillar preparing for metamorphosis, with their entire body made into a cocoon of mana thread.
I expected that he might have been captured by Hagen and ended up looking like that.
Quang!
Eight spider legs flew towards me in sequence.
I dodged his attacks as much as possible, looked for gaps, and parried the unavoidable attacks to see his reaction.
‘Right.’
The chain on the right is heavier than the chain flying from the left.
If so, it means that the center of mana is tilted to one side.
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Mana chains flew out again.
The left chain was lighter than the right chain. This could be blocked with aura without using a sword.
bang!
“… also.”
After grabbing Hagen’s mana chain with my palm, I swung the mana-filled sword towards the middle of the chain and tried to cut it.
Kaang!
However, the results went in a different direction than I expected.
It is said that when mana collides with mana, there is no characteristic reaction, and the game is fought based solely on the durability of the object.
Let alone the chain being broken, it doesn’t even have a scratch on it.
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Before I could find out the answer to the question yet, the next chain flew by at breakneck speed.
Quang!
If a rock fell from a cliff, it would have had this much force.
It was simply swung, but the ground was deeply carved and a chain mark was left behind.
‘damn.’
I wanted to approach Hagen, but there were too many of them to knock off all the chains, and they flew at unpredictable angles and at different speeds, so I couldn’t attack them carelessly.
‘What should I do?’
I thought about it for a long time to solve this question.
The answer came surprisingly close and quite easily.
“Kirurururuk!”
Greedor, who was waiting in the sky, let out a loud cry.
It flew towards Hagen as if it had been waiting for this moment.
Grumble!
The sound of it folding its wings and falling through the wind sounded like thunder.
Hagen noticed his presence and sent four of the eight chains to stop him.
Kaga River!
Gridori grabbed the chain with its sharp claws and tore it off with its beak.
Kang!
“You are amazing too.”
Gryphon, a creature called one of the weapons that can fight against the gods of this world.
“Kiruruk!”
Like a bird of prey eating a snake, it began to suppress the mana chains.
Thanks to this, the path for me to approach Hagen has begun to open.
Of the eight legs, only four were left to deal with me.
Then, now we can fight without worrying about those guys.

I turned my gaze and saw Kaipa and the knights under his command.
Everyone is so scared that they can’t move, so I raise my hand and give them a signal to retreat.
Only then did Kaipa come to his senses and carefully raise Strange’s flag above his head and quietly began to slip out of the castle.
‘good.’
Once they are all gone, I can also do my best to deal with him.
If I use the power of Siegfried that is boiling inside my body and the new level I have reached in this life, I will definitely be able to defeat Hagen.
‘No, I can definitely win.’
With that thought in mind, I waited until the knights left.
To put an end to Hagen, the leader of the Glazers and the only Circle 10 wizard on the continent.
* * *
Deep within the high waves, a calm ocean current flows.
This does not simply mean the sea, but to understand my spirit by combining human language.
“Guardian of the East, I have come to the world to keep my promise to you.”
Hagen bowed his head towards the darkness in a polite tone.
As soon as he finished speaking, the space split and the green dragon showed its face.
Seuuuuu-.
[Good job, now your body is mine according to the contract.]
“I will take your word for it.”
[This world will return to the beginning because of your power.]
“I also thought that to see the end of knowledge, I had to go back to the beginning. “I hope that your will will be fulfilled according to your wishes.”
[Become the father of chaos that will devour this continent and bring down the tower.]
“Yes, Lord of Night.”
Lord of Night.
A being that has ruled the night since the beginning of this world.
In the past, some people called it ‘good’, while others called it ‘evil’. Those who disagreed with them simply referred to it with the generic word ‘God’ without defining its identity.
‘however.’
Everything they knew about the Lord of Knight was not true.
He was a being who could not be expressed through the words good, evil, and god.
Intellectuals of this era created the word dragon to describe a being that cannot be done with human power.
Buuung-Kaang!
A strong metal sound pierced Hagen’s ears.
When he turned his head and looked into space, he saw himself and Verdin fighting in another dimension.
“Why did you save the author?”
[His honorific name was not my choice.]
“It wasn’t your choice?”
[Yes, someone higher than me. The one who can set the flow of this world changed its fate.]
“… “Who is that?”
The green dragon did not answer.
I was just watching Verdin fighting with Hagen.
[Kill him. And destroy the world.]
Hagen shook his head slightly and whispered.
“That’s how it should be, because that’s what we decided to do. But Lord of Knight. “I know it’s rude, but can I ask you a question?”
[You are the one who will become the master of chaos in the future. No matter what questions you ask, it will be meaningless in the future.]
“Yes, but there is something I really want to know.”
[You can do it if you want, but just because you ask doesn’t mean you will get an answer.]
As Hagen rubbed his face with his palm, his middle-aged face suddenly returned to its youthful appearance and he smiled.
“All right. Well, it’s a simple question, so the Lord of Knight will be able to answer it without difficulty.”
The Lord of Night said, his black eyes focused on Hagen.
[Speak.]
“… What would happen if I, in the other world, were defeated by that knight named Verdin?”
[That cannot happen. You are already using the power of chaos and are at a level that cannot even be compared to an apostle.]
[No matter who comes from that world, no one can stop you.]
“That’s why I asked what happens if something like that happens. After all, isn’t the causality of the world beyond decided by the Tower, not by you? “If that’s the case, I don’t know what will happen to this either-”
[The owner of the tower also cannot be involved in the time we create.]
[Right now, there is only one person who can change the outcome of this fight. The Lord of Chaos, the master of chaos. There is no one else but you-]
Hagen reached out his hand and interrupted the Lord of Knight.
“Oh, is that so? So, if I lose this fight on purpose, the world will not be destroyed. Phew – you’re welcome! “I can’t believe I found a way to stop it like this.”
As the Lord of Night blinked, thunder boomed through the darkness.
Rumbling!
[No way.]
“I’m sorry, but I suddenly changed my mind.”
[Change your mind?]
“… Don’t many humans say that wizards are fickle? “Maybe I am the one who said that.”
Hagen looked at Gangrette next to him in the distorted space with a smile on his face, and stretched out his hands towards the Lord of Knight’s face, gathering intense mana and manifesting it.
“Please take care of Gangrette, Verdin.”
Quang!
* * *
[Please take care of Gangrette, Verdin.]
Suddenly, Hagen’s voice reached my ear.
He is clearly trying to kill me at the top of the castle.
Why am I hearing this voice again?
At the same time I was wondering, Siegfried, who had entered my body, spoke to me.
“Verdin, I don’t think that guy is human.”
“You’re not human?”
“Yes, it smells like the same world as me.”
“It’s the smell of the world.”
No, wait a minute.
The bounded world refers to a space where souls wander.
So does that mean Hagen is already dead?
I looked at him with aura in my eyes.
And now I was able to infer the identity of the scent of the world that Master spoke of.
His body is now being controlled by someone, or his mind may have gone wild and his soul has left his body.
‘and.’
If not this, then they are the closest thing to God that I know.
There is a high probability that such things are being done by those who are called apostles.
“It doesn’t matter.”
Whatever he is, I just have to kill Hagen anyway.
After confirming that all the knights had left the castle, I put buns in both hands.
Sssssss.
He then opened the sparkling artifact on his neck, the Talisman Dark Star, and poured out all his power at once.
‘I’ll send Gangret to a safe place, Hagen.’
So make sure you also keep what you said to me.
This is not simply a promise between you and me, but the future of Glazer and Strange.
“Burn-blade.”
Because it will become a new history of this continent.
“… Let’s go, Master.”
Pot!
