Chapter 155 How to Deal with Wizards (3)
Roman’s remarks.
When I first heard it, I was angry.
‘It’s clearly ignoring me.’
ten thousand gold.
That’s enough money to feed 40,000 people for a year.
In fact, it seemed to mean that he would not allow defeat, and above all, he told him to call the wizards of the Mage Tower because his power alone would not be enough.
Roman’s intentions might not have meant that.
However, the continuous remarks were bound to sound negative, and that day, Pelex could not sleep all night.
Felix.
5th circle mage.
In terms of an aura swordsman, it was a 4-star level, but the magician’s special ability showed power beyond that of an ordinary castle.
Even if Roman Dmitri is a 5 star aura swordsman. It didn’t make sense to put yourself down so easily.
He grinded it to pieces.
I constantly looked back at the two days of Dalian in the bubbling heat.
‘From now on, it’s a matter of pride. I will definitely kneel down and rob Dmitri’s safe.’
early week.
It was a series of defeats.
There was no way to attack Roman Dmitri’s evasion ability with normal magic, and he learned Roman’s patterns by deliberately piling up memorize magic.
With a heart full of pride. Using the defeat as a foundation, he conceived various plans to defeat Roman Dmitri.
8th match.
I used the magic that restricts movement.
I tied Roman’s feet with compulsive magic such as slow, but the effect of the magic disappeared after not being able to endure it for long.
It was an incomprehensible scene.
In the first confrontation, Roman Dmitri shook off the effect of the hold, but I didn’t know that he would react casually to continuous magic.
According to magic science.
I heard that the effect can be eliminated by removing the mana that penetrates the body.
However, it was a very difficult method, and Roman Dmitri’s reaction speed exceeded normal speed.
First operation failed.
5 days later.
Started the second operation.
This time, he hid himself with mist-like magic. Roman Dmitri managed to find Felix’s location like a ghost, even though visual information was blocked.
The positions of the sky and the earth were reversed in a foolish attempt.
The strong impact shook his head and Felix fell terribly to the ground.
a week later
The third operation was systematic.
Incited Roman’s attack.
The magic trap had been set the day beforehand, and as soon as Roman Dmitri came running, he activated the magic trap and attempted simultaneous attacks.
however. When Roman stepped on the ground, there was a powerful shock and the magic trap was destroyed.
It was great to have grasped the existence of magic traps, but I had never heard of destroying magic traps with physical impact anywhere in the world.
Mental went out.
third operation.
It was a rather crude method.
It wasn’t an impromptu match, but it was prepared the day before, but it didn’t touch Roman Dmitri’s hair.
Roman was a monster.
A being that wizards cannot touch.
Apart from the difference in skill level, Roman knew how to deal with wizards.
‘Roman Dmitri’s ability is an area that can’t be understood even with the thesis of magic academia. Where the hell did this monster come from? If Roman Dmitri harbors a malicious mind towards mages, it will be difficult for him to survive except for mages of 6th circle or higher.’
I got goosebumps.
Just the thought of meeting Roman Dmitri on the battlefield made it impossible for him to accept a series of defeats with a smile.
A confrontation that repeats every day.
It was really outrageous.
I did not choose any means and methods, and in the last 30 days, I gave up my pride.
last resort.
I took advantage of the chance of being a pioneer.
Taking advantage of the time Roman Dmitri arrogantly gives, he tried to finish with a powerful attack from the start.
As a result.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Aura’s shield.
The attack with all his might was blocked in vain.
Felix, who was looking at it with a vague look, gritted his teeth at the shock that was about to come.
puck!
The world spinning around.
Felix, pinned to the ground, raised a white flag after a month.
* * *
30 days.
30 fights.
30 defeats.
now admitted
Roman Dmitri could not win alone, and Felix took the matter the other way.
‘Let’s not cling to my personal pride. If you lead the Phoenix Magic Tower and encounter a monster like Roman Dmitri on the battlefield. We cannot guarantee victory.’
I contacted the magic tower.
Phoenix’s sorcerers arrived at Dmitri, and when Felix explained his purpose, they frowned.
“… Are you saying we should fight one-on-one now?”
“Felix. Anyway, that’s not it. Mages are generally not oriented towards ‘fighting’. Magic is an area where it is difficult to control the power of swordsmen, such as swordsmanship sparring, so if you do something wrong, it may lead to a life-threatening accident. But it’s a one-on-one battle. What are you going to do with the aftermath of hurting Dmitri’s eldest son?”
Their reaction was negative.
one to many.
It was an unusual confrontation.
And above all, there was something they didn’t like.
“To be honest, isn’t it a bit like losing 30 times out of 30 fights? Felix-sama is now the Acting Mage Master of the Phoenix Mage Tower. If so, I have to show the dignity and skills that match it, but I don’t think it’s a shame to come to a faraway place and show this kind of humiliation.”
It was a wizard named Nox.
Immediately after the disappearance of the Master of the Magic Tower.
Phoenix’s power system has completely collapsed.
Felix acted as the Mage Tower master, but in a situation where he was constantly ignored in the magic academy, the wizards including Nox could not accept the change in the Mage Tower.
It was a total mess. Even if they join forces, there is no way to improve the bleak future, but they decided that the incompetent Mage Tower owner also had a problem.
Unless you can excel in magic.
Shouldn’t he be good at politics?
Felix, who had a more single-minded temperament than he thought, might be a wizard, but he was not enough as a mage lord.
said Felix.
“You guys are right. 30 defeats in 30 fights is a result that cannot be understood by any excuse. However, for this confrontation, Roman Dmitri bet a whopping ‘10,000 gold’ as a reward. If we work together and take down Roman Dmitri. You may use half of them for your own personal use.”
“… Is it really?”
Moment.
The mages’ expressions changed.
Half of 10,000 gold.
Even if you divide 5000 gold by the number of people, it was a huge amount of money.
met each other’s gaze.
As we checked each other’s eyes stained with greed, Knox spoke as the representative again.
“Is it okay to win just once?”
“It is not an easy matter to think about. Roman Dmitri is the same person as the magician’s natural enemy, and if we are vigilant, there is a high probability of defeat even with the superiority in numbers. So, have enough strategy meetings and… … .”
“it’s okay.”
I cut off my words.
Knox.
He was also a 5th circle wizard.
He was dissatisfied with giving Felix the position of Master of the Mage at the age of mid-fifties, so he didn’t listen to Felix very much.
In the first place, he thought he was a better wizard than Felix.
Even if it was an opponent Felix couldn’t defeat, it was a different story if a number of wizards including himself came forward.
he asserted.
“Don’t worry Felix. We’ll clean it up.”
* * *
A few days later.
The sparring proceeded in a different way than before.
Felix and Nox and the three wizards.
It was a 5 to 1 match.
Even though it was an overwhelmingly unfavorable situation, Roman’s reaction was no different from any other day.
“I will yield the first attack.”
“under.”
food.
Knox laughed.
Even if they just stick together, it is a fight in which they have an advantage.
But to concede the seon-gong?
What do you mean by confidence?
“Don’t regret saying that.”
Glance.
gave me a glance
It’s a battle for 10,000 gold.
There was no reason not to take advantage of the opponent’s carelessness.
Raised mana.
This confrontation began with Nox’s magic.
“Fire Lance.”
Roaring.
The moment the strong flame formed the shape of the spear, other wizards simultaneously used magic.
“Fire Wave.”
“Fire Burst.”
Flames exploded.
There was no clear strategy.
Knox intended to simply press down with firepower, and the flames burning from all sides attacked Roman Dmitri as it was.
Fire magic becomes stronger as firepower accumulates.
Since the simultaneous use of magic blocked all escape routes, Roman was convinced that there was no way for him to survive.
however.
sure-
“… !”
through the flames
Roman Dmitri rushed forward.
Felix hurriedly shouted because it was a pattern that used the ‘aura shield’ that had broken Felix so far.
“be careful! Fire Wall.”
Roaring.
Created a wall of fire.
An ulterior motive to buy some time.
Before the flames could spread quickly, Roman Dmitri seized the moment and attacked one of the wizards.
Pak-
“Keuuk.”
A scream was heard.
One mage knelt in vain, and while trying to attack with a puzzled face, another mage was attacked by Roman.
Even if it was fast, it was too fast.
Even though he wasn’t using Blink, Roman quickly closed the distance with the wizards, and in return for one attack, two wizards were killed.
“This crazy.”
Knox was taken aback.
As expected.
It should have ended on the first attack.
He drew in the flames with clenched fists and used his secret weapon.
“Fire Field.”
Roaring.
5 circle fire magic.
Controlled the surrounding flames.
I tried to limit the opponent’s movement by quickly attacking Roman, but Roman Dmitri’s movement did not slow down at all no matter which direction he attacked.
It was a disconcerting scene.
In a situation where the flames were overflowing, Roman quickly evaded the attack and attacked another wizard, as if he didn’t feel the heat.
they didn’t know
The realm of invulnerability to cold and cold.
That tolerable heat does not work for Roman.
puck!
The third wizard was struck.
Two wizards left.
Knox gritted his teeth and drew up mana, but before he could do anything he found Roman appearing in front of him.
“omg?!”
Speed beyond common sense.
then
Felix’s warning came to mind.
Felix told him to be careful countless times, but there was no way to know Roman’s true identity unless he faced him directly.
at last.
Bah-
Knox staggered.
The powerful shock rolled over his eyes, and he fell backwards as it was.
overwhelming victory.
Felix opened his mouth.
The match was not over yet, but he did not dare to attack.
“… no way.”
The truth I had been ignoring.
That was revealed in this confrontation.
Roman Dmitry.
It was clear that he had never shown his strength against himself before.
* * *
Wizards of Phoenix.
My mentality was completely shattered.
They came to their senses with swollen faces and looked up at the sky with stunned faces like Felix on the first day.
“They say there is a sky above the sky.”
“What the hell happened?”
“This was a fight I couldn’t win in the first place.”
crushing defeat.
It felt like my mind would fly away.
Those who were born with the talent of magicians were always in the position of the strong in their lives, but they experienced such a helpless sense of defeat for the first time in their lives.
Felix was right.
Having defeated 30 times out of 30 battles, Roman Dmitri was a monster beyond common sense and I couldn’t come up with a way to defeat him.
“… Mr Felix. What the hell have you been fighting all this time?”
It was Knox.
Is it the heart of sympathy?
When I faced a wall that I couldn’t overcome, I felt emotional just because I belonged to the same company.
one to many.
Even the last possibility is gone.
Thinking that there was no way to defeat Roman anymore, Felix left the mages and jumped up from his seat.
“Wait. I will come after talking with Roman.”
I was curious.
Roman Dmitry.
How the hell does he deal with them?
Starting with the evasion action, the aura’s defense.
I wanted to look into Roman Dmitri’s thoughts from one to ten.
I went to see Roman.
Seeing him spending a leisurely time in his room, Felix was moved to tears.
“I will ask straight forward. Honestly, I don’t have the confidence to beat Roman Dmitri anymore. So can you explain at least how you defeated us so we can analyze the damage? In the world I’ve lived in, there is no one who avoids magic and breaks through head-on like Roman Dmitri. I know that this is a difficult request, but please think about the future… … .”
“All right.”
“yes?”
“I can’t tell you exactly, but I will tell you at least how we prepared for the match.”
Roman’s answer.
It was unexpected.
I thought he wouldn’t tell me because he was worried about leaking his secret, but Roman readily stood up.
“Follow me.”
moved to place
got into resistance
After a long walk, we arrived at a neat two-story building.
“This is it.”
“… This?”
let’s go inside
A familiar environment appeared.
Inside the building, which was surrounded by bookshelves like a magic tower, there were numerous books on display.
Roman said.
“The books in here are all related to magic. It’s safe to say that Cairo has all the tolerable magic books on the market. From popular books to non-mainstream books. I lived here for a while and spent time analyzing what a mage was like.”
At first glance, thousands of books.
I opened my mouth wide.
I knew that Roman Dmitri’s victory was not luck at the sight of books pouring into my eyes.
“From now on, I will explain how I dealt with Felix. Do not simply take it as a favor. When you have heard all I have explained, I hope that Felix will have some additional advice.”
Roman walked away.
widely.
one book.
It was a book titled Understanding Magic.
Even at that time, Felix showed an expression full of questions in a very basic magic book.
