Episode 493 Corrupted Magic Beast (1)
“What are you?”
Calotto broke out in a cold sweat without realizing it.
I didn’t try to show that I was agitated, but I felt a sense of tension from the new and rare appearance of the opponent in front of me.
‘What is it? Was a guy like that in the Magic Information Department?’
Even though it was a surprise attack, the bottom 3 out of 5 of his students were killed.
The guys who were good at fighting in their own way died without being able to respond properly.
‘No, even I didn’t notice it for a moment.’
When you work in this kind of back world, your senses are bound to become overly sharp.
Wasn’t he the one who recognized the secret wizard right away?
Even so, I didn’t notice until the opponent in front of me attacked.
This secrecy is absolutely not something an ordinary human can have.
“You are not affiliated with the Ministry of Magical Intelligence.”
It smells.
Unlike the shameless sorcerers who pretend to be righteous, it smells too harsh and pragmatic.
this guy.
are of the same kind as yourself.
“I don’t know what this is all of a sudden, but you dared to ambush us and kill my pupil, so you’re prepared to pay the price, right?”
Carloto felt uncomfortable right now.
I was thinking of overcoming the biggest obstacle to take over the kingdom of Seville right away, but suddenly Aman intervenes and interferes.
I don’t remember ever doing anything to hold a grudge against someone with that level of skill.
Perhaps it was a secret weapon secretly prepared by the Ministry of Magical Intelligence.
‘No matter what it is, I will pay a heavy price for daring to touch me.’
Since three of his disciples died, he had already crossed the irreversible river.
The weight of that blood must be washed away with that guy and the other wizards to make ends meet.
That’s several times more fatigue.
‘Still, I can’t be careless.’
Carloto calmly analyzed his opponent.
It was partly because he didn’t feel the presence until he was attacked, but it was mainly because the opponent’s magic was so bizarre.
‘I must have just moved in the shadows.’
shadow magic? Is there such a thing?
It’s not black magic. If there was a school like that, rumors of knowledge would have spread in the underworld.
If it is not, it means that it is a normal magician, not a black magician.
‘Shadow. Is it dark attribute derived magic? not good. The dark attribute is also a very rare case, so there’s not much information about it.’
Carloto rolled his head, then shook his head.
What are you stocking up on now?
“Everyone, focus on your work. I’ll take care of him.”
“Ha, but Master.”
“Do you all want to die?”
As Carloto opened his eyes and glared at him, the remaining two disciples hurriedly created magic and prepared a magic circle.
Carlotto did not neglect to look after Ludger even while watching him.
‘I thought there would be some way to get in the way, but they’re not impatient at all.’
The opponent had room.
You will find out if that composure really comes from conceit or if it really comes from your skills.
Kurur.
Magical power rose around Carloto’s body.
It sounded like steam boiling in a turbine.
This is unusual considering that normal magical energy discharges happen quietly.
It was because the excessive destructive power of hell magic was about to run out of control beyond the will of the caster.
If you were a normal Fel Magic Warlock, you would not be able to control this power and would rather be swayed by it.
But Carloto was different.
As befits the pillar that supports the Fel Magic School, he perfectly controlled the flow of this enormous power.
What happened around Carloto was green magic.
The origin of the name Hell Magic was modeled after the flames of hell that burned forever.
Hwaaak!
Green flames lit up the inside of the warehouse, which was filled with all sorts of goods.
In the light of the flames, the darkness receded as if washed away.
The same was true of the shadow Rudger was hiding in.
When Ludger, who showed only blue eyes in the dark, was revealed, Carloto twisted his lips as if he was surprised.
‘I thought a senile serpent came from somewhere just by looking at his skills.’
Blue eyes and pure white skin that do not lose their luster even in the green light.
Even his appearance as if he was carved out of pieces and his long black hair.
Aren’t you young enough to look like you’ve never been through a rough experience?
‘However, from the eyes and facial expression, the composure is fully revealed.’
Carloto didn’t like that look.
Ludgar’s cold stare was subtly stimulating rebellion against him, who had a sense of qualification toward wizards from before.
“How dare you look at me like that?!”
In response to Carloto’s will, the infernal magic surged as if it had been hit by the wind.
It then spread like a tidal wave in all directions and swallowed everything.
There was nothing to protect around him, so there was no hesitation in using magic.
‘This is…’
Rudger had to make a choice after seeing the tidal wave of fel magic coming in.
‘It’s impossible to block from the front.’
The power is too strong.
The magic Carloto used was probably only at the beginning of the 4th tier in his own school.
However, the actual destructive power had already reached the middle of the 5th rank.
‘With the speed of implementing the 4th tier spell, it produces 5th tier power. I can’t help but understand that there are many wizards who fall for hell magic.’
Magic is a path that must be climbed through constant effort and repeated trial and error.
However, not everyone walks the same path.
Depending on one’s talent, someone walks the faster and more comfortable path.
Those who fail to do so have no choice but to shed blood and sweat and watch others go well from a distance.
It was natural for a person in endless despair to find a shortcut or a slightly more convenient way.
Because that’s human nature.
‘Nevertheless, Carloto’s magic has reached a state of maturity. I’m not a mage representing the school for nothing.’
Rudger quickly backed away.
The interior of the warehouse touched by the green flames was oxidized without leaving ashes.
In an instant, his vision turned green.
Rudgar saw the green embers swirling right in front of him and disappearing like a mirage.
And I looked down at my feet.
As if a line had been drawn, traces of the flames remained.
Considering the momentum it showed, the range wasn’t that great.
Rudger understood the reason at once.
“Your control is limited.”
“…!”
Calotto’s expression contorted for a moment at the words that pierced his heart.
As Ludger said, the power of the magic Carloto uses is strong, but the moment he loosens the reins even a little, it grows out of control.
A dog that loses its leash never comes back.
No, I’d rather not come.
On the contrary, the infernal magic was someone who would bite the master’s neck.
“Did you mean to try to rule the kingdom’s underworld with magical powers that you couldn’t handle properly? I didn’t even know my subject and only dreamed big.”
“Shut up!”
Carloto used magic at Ludger.
Three snakes of green fire were aimed at Ludgar and shot.
Ludger seemed to hide himself in the shadow of the remaining wreckage, then disappeared.
Carloto’s magic only burned the place of love.
‘Damn it. It’s like using a rat-like tactic that moves in the shadows.’
Carloto rolled his eyes.
Although it is true that Ludger’s remarks hurt his pride. But it wasn’t to the extent that he couldn’t make up his mind and ran amok.
His real purpose is Marias Selmore, not that dark-haired young man who suddenly intrudes.
However, since the opponent also understood the situation on this side, they were persistently aiming for that part.
“You damn rat! A guy who wouldn’t even be my opponent if we fought head-on, he’s just so good at running away!”
While calling out, Carlotto rolled his eyes and looked at the students’ condition.
Originally, the work should have already been completed, but because Rudger removed the three in a surprise attack, the goal was still not reached.
A situation that does not count at all.
Carloto felt irritation and stress creeping in.
Feeling the will of such a master, the hell magic was about to rise like magma.
you are angry too just let it all out Then you will be comfortable too?
“Keugh.”
Carloto had to grit his teeth and resist the temptations of the fel magic.
This magical power was such a problem.
If the planting is slightly disturbed, it will immediately try to wield the owner as it pleases.
The higher the hierarchy, the less temptations are inflicted, but sometimes a really hard blow comes.
Now was that moment.
Carloto had to grit his teeth and suppress his mana.
And Rudger had no intention of letting go of that gap.
Arrows of sharp magical power aimed at the temple between the eyebrows and the pit of the stomach.
When Carloto couldn’t react, green flames rose up around his body and burned him because he couldn’t counterbalance Ludger’s magical power.
‘Does magic come naturally?’
Rudger laughed at the absurdity.
okay. It’s not just a downside, is it?
‘If this happens, it’ll be a waste of time to hit and run outside.’
Having made up his mind, Ludger appeared in sight of Carloto.
Calotto, who had regained his reason just in time, glared at Ludger with open eyes.
“dare. A guy who can’t even fight me properly from the front…”
“I’ll try.”
“what?”
“I mean to fight from the front. Let’s do our best without measure.”
Carloto didn’t understand what Rudger was talking about.
Could this be some kind of trap?
“why. Are you scared?”
The moment he heard that remark, Carloto erased the possibility of a trap from his mind.
“okay. Since you say you want it, I’ll make sure to show you very well.”
okay. I had a chance to break the cheeky wizard’s nose, but could I turn it down?
Carloto mastered his magical powers.
There lies your prey ahead. There is a guy who ignored us and looked down on us. So devour him with all your might.
The green flames weaved up like that swayed like tentacles.
It was not an illusion.
A huge octopus made of green flames appeared behind Carloto’s back.
“That pride instigated the four! Wizard!”
Carloto shot his magic at Ludger.
The green bridge surrounded Ludger from all sides.
Even if you run away with that proud shadow magic, it’s huge enough to swallow the entire area.
Even then, Rudgar hadn’t prepared much for magic.
‘what?’
Carloto was sure of victory, but was puzzled by Ludger’s actions.
I didn’t fight for a long time, but I could clearly feel it in that short time.
Ludger’s fighting method was terribly rational and thorough.
I thought that even if I showed my face like this, there must be something there.
But even though his life was at stake, Ludger stood still.
‘Are you out of your mind?’
Carlotto called out for joy inwardly.
okay. This side seemed easy enough, so I bravely tried a head-to-head match, but I was scared by this magic.
It was an absurdly disappointing mistake for a guy who seemed like a veteran.
But practice is always like that.
A place where even veterans of war lose their lives due to minor mistakes.
Carloto had no doubt that Ludger was the same.
Until he suddenly took out a red jewel from his bosom.
“Swallow. paschal.”
Pasca, who was only looking for an opportunity, reacted.
The direction of the tentacles of the green flames, which were aiming at Ludger from all sides, changed.
It’s like water being sucked into a drain hole.
The red jewel gobbled up the green flame.
“What is it?”
Carloto was stunned at the sight of his own mana and the most powerful magic being absorbed by a single red jewel.
“What the hell is that!”
Moreover, what puzzled him was the presence that slowly appeared while eating the green flame.
The huge dragon’s head rose behind Ludger’s back and absorbed all the remaining flames, then sniffed and snorted.
what. I thought it was a rather delicious flame, but it wasn’t a big deal, right?
The dragon’s expression clearly seemed to say so.
As if it had nothing to do with it, the dragon’s head returned to the jewel.
Rudger naturally put the jewel into his bosom.
“Hell’s flames. Contrary to the grandiose name, there was nothing to see.”
“what?”
“I said this because this guy didn’t like it as much as I expected.”
I also understand Paschal’s reaction.
It was the dragon’s flame that had the biggest impact on him.
To the fire eater, there was no black magician’s flame in the castle.
In addition, hell magic is not a pure element, but a mixture of all kinds of flames.
Perhaps, from Pasca’s point of view, it felt like eating junk food full of stimulating seasonings.
Being a picky eater, I didn’t like it very much.
“That’s that…”
Carlotto was half stunned.
It wasn’t enough that the flames of hell he was proud of were absorbed so vainly, and he was treated cheaply, so his mentality suffered quite a bit.
Because of that, his mana, which he had suppressed with his composure and reason, began to flow over his skin.
By the time Carloto belatedly recognized it, it was already too late.
“Kuaaa!”
Roaring!
Carloto’s body was engulfed in green flames.
The green flame engulfed Calotto’s whole body in an instant and burned roaringly.
Carloto’s skin cracked as hard as stone.
Sparks leaked out of the gap and scattered the embers.
His clothes were burned and even the staff he held in his hand turned to ashes and disappeared.
“…this is unexpected.”
Rudger saw.
The figure of Carloto, whose flesh gradually disappeared in the green flames, leaving only bones.
Eventually, what was left was not a nicely dressed warlock, but a charred skull spewing green flames.
He turned his head and stared at Ludger.
