◈ Episode 307 The Dark Magician (2)
Casey’s attacks were raging without a break.
The cascades of rainwater falling in the air seemed like watching rain in the rainy season with no end in sight.
“Awesome.”
Even Pasius marveled at Casey’s dominance.
The reputation of a single element element user different from a normal wizard was not in vain.
However, what was most impressive was Casey’s mental strength and mana control, which handled a large amount of water freely.
Ruifault tried to resist by using multi-attribute magic several times, but he couldn’t stand it against Casey, who was continuously supplied with water through the underground water.
As if he didn’t want to continue like this, Ruifault made a shield resembling a tortoise’s shell wrapped around his black magic power.
Whenever the weapons of water hit the black shell, ‘Dangdang!’ A clear sound rang out.
“Do you think you can stop it with something like that?”
Casey laughed at Ruifault and immediately changed his attack method.
Ordnance weapons of normal size began to gather in one place.
Eventually, a huge sword that a giant could wield was completed.
A water yam possessing enormous mass and enormous magical power.
Even the water on the blade was flowing at a tremendous speed.
Upon seeing this, Ruifault’s eyes widened slightly.
Immediately after, the yamdo fell as if breaking the shell.
Kagagakak!
The yam-do could not completely break the shell and flowed down along the grain.
However, part of the shell was torn apart, clearly proving its power.
It was the result of sharp cutting power using a huge mass and high-pressure water flow.
Believing that he would be able to block it perfectly, Ruifault’s expression hardened.
It was because there were several more giant yam swords like the one before.
How many swords of that mass can you wield?
Ruifault admired Casey’s strength in his heart, but thought that if he ate her, he might be able to handle water.
Thoughts turned into hunger and greed, and immediately led to action.
After releasing the black magic shell, Ruifault charged at Casey.
The output fight through magic from a distance is pushed, so I chose a different method.
Ruifault’s body, which had transcended humans through experiments, moved as if leaving an afterimage.
Ruifault’s actions were also based on some kind of calculation.
He couldn’t have thought that he would suddenly engage in close combat, and he was planning to take advantage of that careless moment.
Ruifault jumped over the stream of water blocking his way or ducked down to avoid it, getting close to Casey.
But I soon realized that something was wrong with Casey’s unwavering eyes staring this way.
“Do you think I’ve been through this once or twice?”
What is the experience of fighting an enemy who tries to engage in close combat with a wizard-like movement?
There have already been enough.
Rather, Casey waited for Ruifault to approach.
The space between Casey and Louis Fault shuddered, and the thin water curtain was lifted.
The soldiers made up of the water hidden in it surrounded Ruifold with spears and shields and put him in bondage.
Ruifault tried to resist with force, but no matter how powerful his body was, he could not do anything in front of the quantity.
Being caught in a loophole also played a role.
Louis Fault, whose limbs were tied, glared at Casey.
A gaze full of hostility shook with greed for Casey’s ability.
Casey forced water into Ruifault’s mouth as if he didn’t want to see it.
“Keugh! Wow! Aagh!”
After swallowing the water, Ruifault let out a scream for the first time.
The water entering the body started to boil.
Even synchronized with the blood flowing in his body, he experienced the blood boiling throughout his body.
“Ouch! Khehehe!”
However, Louis Fault’s screams gradually died away, and laughter escaped from his lips.
Casey clicked her tongue in an annoyed look at the sight.
Ruifault did not die even after using the most extreme methods.
Rather, he was resisting this pain and even developing his tolerance.
Casey decided to change his ways.
The soldiers who bound Ruifault’s body collapsed as if they were melting.
It devoured Ruifault and soon transformed into a giant.
oh oh oh!
The giant grabbed the Louis Fault in his hand and pinned it to the ground.
He didn’t stop there, grabbed Ruifault, broke the wall, and drove it into the base of the world tree.
Ruifault couldn’t come to his senses as his vision kept changing and his whole body was throbbing and crushing.
The water giant grabbed Ruifault with both hands and opened his mouth to swallow it.
The giant’s form crumbled and turned into a giant sphere of water.
It looked like an ordinary sphere from the outside, but on the inside, a vortex reminiscent of a huge vortex was swirling around.
It’s like a child putting worms in a small barrel and shaking it mercilessly.
Ruifault repeated being swept back and forth in the water prison.
Casey didn’t let go of his expression even in the middle of it.
Even in a situation where he should have died a hundred times already, Ruifault was alive and well.
On the contrary, I was getting stronger and stronger.
Even Ruifault did not drown.
He has become a being that does not even need oxygen, which is necessary for life activities.
It was none other than Ludger who gave the answer to Casey, who was wondering what to do.
An immense amount of cold air radiated from Ludgar and began to surround the water prison.
Blasphemy!
The water that came in contact with the cold air quickly froze and turned white.
However, the volume of the sphere was so large that Rudger alone was beyond his strength.
Then other people came out.
Roteron, Chris, and the War Wizard joined.
The three of them used cold magic, and Bellaluna also threw reagents filled with cooling fluid.
Veronica also raised her aura and focused the cold on the water sphere.
Eventually, a huge ice prison with a diameter of over 50m was created.
Ruifault’s body was trapped inside, unable to move, like a stuffed insect.
But no one was relieved.
Casey continued to pump up groundwater and put it on top of the ice prison, while others froze it in real time, increasing the size of the ice.
If he couldn’t kill him, he intended to keep Ruifault locked up in this state.
It was then that Ruifault’s voice rang through the ice.
“It was quite.”
Even though there was no way he could hear anything he said inside, his voice resonated in everyone’s mind as if it engulfed the entire space.
“But it’s over for me to watch your jokes.”
At the same time, a black wave emanated from the huge sphere of ice.
The wave-like attack that Andrei used when he borrowed the devil’s power.
There, the party responded as if they had been waiting.
He tried to resist that power as much as possible by raising his magic power and aura.
However, Ruifold’s mental attack was much stronger than Andrei’s.
The black wavelength seeped into the cracks in people’s minds and penetrated deeper inside.
And, in contact with the negative touch they had been hiding, they explosively maximized it.
“what?”
Casey was taken aback by the sudden blackness of the landscape.
What about Louis Fault? Where have all the rest gone?
At that moment, a person appeared in front of Casey’s eyes.
Casey, who thought it was an enemy, got ready for battle, but after recognizing the opponent, he released his strength.
“grandfather?”
The person Casey had admired since childhood.
The decisive moment that made him act as a detective despite his outstanding talent was right in front of his eyes.
However, Casey’s grandfather, without his usual benevolence, was looking at Casey with disgust.
“I am disappointed in you. Casey.”
“yes? uh why… ….”
“Why are you asking? Casey I asked you to make this world more just.”
“Yes, you did. So I did my best… ….”
“Did you really do your best?”
“….”
Casey didn’t respond to that.
Grandpa’s gaze turned to the side, and Casey naturally looked there as well.
The man was there.
Ludgar, who couldn’t even shed tears of sorrow while holding the child’s corpse in his arms.
Casey defined Rudger as evil and pursued him.
And when all the cases are over.
People only chanted the name of detective Casey Selmore.
“Did you really fight for justice?”
“ah.”
Casey dropped to his knees.
She looked up at her grandfather with trembling eyes.
The cold eyes staring this way were not the grandfather she knew.
“disappointed. Casey. I’m so disappointed in you. After all, you were nothing compared to your sister.”
“Oh no. I am…!”
As Casey was about to shout something, Grandpa’s skin melted like mud.
Soon, the exposed white bones burst into flames and burst into madness at Casey.
Casey turned and ran away with unfocused eyes.
“Are you running away? Are you trying to avert your eyes from the truth like back then!”
A shout erupted from behind.
Casey ran and ran through the darkness as if he couldn’t hear him.
how far did you run? As I stopped in my seat with my heart bursting with breath, a new person appeared in front of Casey.
It was a little brother and sister.
The slum siblings were happy to see Casey when everyone cheered after defeating James Moriarty.
“liar.”
“fraud.”
The two children spat out coldly, as if they felt betrayed by Casey’s true self.
“Oh no. I am….”
Casey tried to make an excuse, but the two siblings were gone.
The words to be conveyed were swallowed up in the darkness, losing their destination.
“I am….”
With her head down, Casey could see the hem of her shoes.
When I lifted my lowered head, I could see the man’s figure in front of me.
He was once James Moriarty, now a man called Ludgar Celish.
He stared at Casey with his usual emotionless gaze.
No, in fact, it was an illusion on this side that there were no emotions.
This man was, in fact, a person who, more than anyone else, felt intense compassion for the suffering of others.
When he changed his mind, Ludger’s eyes looked completely different.
The inorganic eyes, previously thought to be emotionless, were dotted with sadness and disappointment.
“After all, you couldn’t save anyone.”
The moment he heard that, Casey’s mind collapsed.
* * *
BAD! Kwajik!
Soon after, the ice sphere shattered and Ruifold, whose whole body was covered in black magic, appeared.
“It really doesn’t matter.”
Ruifault muttered as he looked at the people who had collapsed and passed out.
Even Casey Selmore, who had been accusing her, fainted as if asleep.
It was the same for the two sword masters, Pasius and Terina.
Even a person called a transcendental person had weaknesses.
Although the body may be strong, the human spirit is too weak.
Demon Power excelled in that area.
Rather, it was poisonous enough to go beyond that and befit the name of a devil.
An attack that shakes the opponent’s mind and causes all sorts of negative confusion.
Even a 6th tier wizard with solid mental power couldn’t be safe.
“Is it because even those who are so praised as strong cannot handle their weak minds?”
Enormous magical power, vast knowledge, and transcendent physical abilities.
Those who possessed all of them collapsed helplessly in front of the devil’s power.
Ruifault was saddened by the sight and felt joy at the same time.
If it was my old self, even if there was only one of those people, I would have had to fight fiercely.
But look at this now.
He triumphed and all others fell to their knees.
However, Ruifault was not satisfied with this.
It was just the beginning.
Ruifault will become stronger. He intended to become stronger, destroy the empire, and establish the new order he desired in the world.
“To do that, I must first absorb your power.”
Ruifault’s gaze turned to Andrei.
Andrei did not faint even after being covered by the waves.
It was because the same demonic power was injected into the body.
But Andrei wasn’t all right either.
In front of a stronger force, he was also affected by the wavelength.
As if to prove it, Andrei’s complexion was haggard and his eyes were darkly tired.
Ruifault could feel the uneasy feeling flowing from Andrei.
“It is sad and pitiful. The feeling of a father who had to watch his lovely daughter suffer from an incurable disease and die.”
At the same time, I could even scan his traumatic memories.
“If I had known the disease, if there was a cure, if I had worked harder in medicine. Even if that regret is trampled on in the eyes, the dead daughter will not come back alive.”
“Shut up!”
“So, in the hope that no one will suffer more in the future, I decided to walk the path people hate. Because no matter how much you curse yourself, there is nothing more important than saving people. Of course, to be honest, that method wasn’t quite right for us.”
Ruifault came up to Andrei’s nose, grabbed him by the neck, and lifted him up.
“But now it is over. After completely absorbing even the power you possess, I will devour the people in this place and destroy all the people up there. I’m glad the road I’m going on isn’t a bad one.”
Andrei’s expression was stained with despair.
Ruifault tried to absorb Andrei’s power with all his might.
At that moment, Ruifault’s expression hardened coldly.
“….”
Ruifault narrowed his eyes and looked back.
In a situation where even the sword master fainted from the power of the devil, a man stood still.
“Amazing. To endure this situation without collapsing.”
And especially if that man was the one who bothered you the most.
“Is it you? The guy who somehow tried to kill me before I opened my eyes.”
Rudger didn’t answer.
Instead, he looked around at the fainting people around him and pulled something out of the inside pocket of his coat.
It was pipe tobacco.
Ludger lit a small spark from his index finger and lit the mouth of his pipe.
Write. Whoa.
Ludger, who sucked in the smoke from the poisonous herb, exhaled white smoke.
Ruifault watched the scene with interest.
When I suddenly wondered why he was smoking, it wasn’t an ordinary cigarette.
The pure white smoke that came out of his mouth was also a toxin containing enormous energy.
“Are you going to make a last resort before you die? The subject that couldn’t kill me even if everyone worked together?”
Ruifault laughed at Ludger and raised his magic power.
The human faces clinging to all parts of the body also laughed at Rudger.
“I have finally become the ultimate wizard. You’re going to attack me, who swallowed many wizards and became able to handle all kinds of elements? Are you just a sorceress?”
Rudger took another sip from his pipe and exhaled the smoke.
“It was the wrong choice to stun the people in this position. It’s because they took care of the number of witnesses and reduced them.”
“what?”
“I am a teacher at Seorn Academy. And as a teacher, your job is to teach someone.”
A stylized blue mist began to rise around Ludgar.
At the same time, his eyes turned red.
Even knowing the change, Ruifault did not feel the seriousness.
“under. Was he even a teacher who only taught kids?”
“okay. So, let me teach you here today.”
Ruifault sneered at Ludger.
“okay? I’m very curious about what you’re teaching. Do you think you can teach me at your level?”
“Don’t worry.”
Ludger’s eyes shone coldly.
“You will soon see what real magic is.”
