The great mage who transcends by regression Episode 12
Wizard Liol.
He was a member of the famous Mage Tower on the continent.
Of course, he was not an elder or a disciple of the tower owner, but he was still a promising wizard who belonged to the tower.
Yes, it was promising.
The past tense is because the circle was broken in the process of attempting an unreasonable experiment a long time ago.
After that day, Liol, a promising magician from the 5th circle, disappeared.
The one who filled the spot was Riol, a half-punch who was judged to be terminally ill as a ‘wizard’ who wouldn’t be strange even if the circle was destroyed at any time.
– Heh haha… ….
After being judged unable to recover the circle, he looked at the sky in a daze.
What to do.
Having lost even his future as a wizard, what is left for him… ….
While he was so worried, he soon
“Okay, let’s become a warrior.”
So concluded.
He said that even losing his future as a wizard would burn his life as a meaningful act.
* * *
“…That’s how it happened.”
Hesitantly, the warrior, or the wizard, Leol said.
I heard the situation.
And after hearing the circumstances, what was my impression?
“No, why are you a warrior?”
No matter how much you think about it, there’s no reason to pretend to be a hero. How the hell did you end up impersonating a warrior, really?
“If you want to save someone, you can just put your name on it.”
“No that…I’ve tried it, but I don’t believe in half-penny wizards… …Because they said so.”
“But do you believe the hero?”
“Yes that…It happened.”
“….”
To be honest, it was a bit awkward.
I, the culprit, may not know it, but from the point of view of others, impersonating a hero is considered a serious crime.
If he had been caught, he might not have been in good shape.
“You made a fool of yourself. If you got it wrong, you could have just died.”
“know…there is.”
The boy spoke weakly and his shoulders drooped.
“But as I left the tower, all kinds of thoughts came to my mind. Anyway, my future as a wizard has passed, and I have to think about everything anew… ….”
“I guess I wanted to move towards helping others.”
“Yes that…I wondered if I could do something with my mediocre ability if it was a periphery… ….”
“her.”
Should I say this is just, or should I call it unnecessarily far-fetched… ….
I think it’s both, though.
If he had a careless attitude in the first place, he would have run away immediately when he faced the bandits.
If this guy is a wizard, he’s half penny and nabal, and he could have somehow managed to get his body out.
But this guy didn’t. Didn’t I desperately hold on to the position to protect those behind me somehow?
“Hmm, so that’s it.”
Weiss nodded in understanding and looked at Liall.
To be precise, it would be more correct to say that Riol’s ‘Circle’ was confirmed.
After a while, Wise nodded as if he understood.
“Certainly the circle was a bit smashed. At a glance, then… …Your apprentice, Viscount Nostra? It seems to be a bit similar to that time.”
“It’s similar, but this one is much better.”
Viscount Nostra was in a situation where the Circle was fundamentally destroyed. So it was useless without absorbing mana and destroying the circle itself.
But here at Riall, it wasn’t like that.
In the course of the ‘experiment’, cracks were formed in the circle, and as a result, the experiment failed and the circle itself was not distorted.
‘Certainly, if you look at common sense, most of the perception is that the moment the circle is broken, it is impossible to recover.’
It’s not wrong.
In order to restore the circle, at least a great mage with the ability of the 9th circle must intervene.
It’s not difficult from a 9th circle position, but how many 9th circles are there in the world?
Probably no one but me.
If you think that way, you can see that it was reasonable enough for Liol to despair and leave the tower. I would have thought that the ‘future’ was cut off.
“Now you don’t have to stand on your hands like that.”
“Ah yes…thank you Even so, the blood doesn’t go through… ….”
Liall crouched down and straightened her posture. Respectfully kneel down and await my verdict.
There was no sign of making useless excuses.
Just an attitude of willing to pay for the crime of impersonation. It’s not even a fake, it’s a face full of sincerity.
“…hmm.”
The trouble didn’t last long.
I don’t know if my impersonation was for the purpose of my profit, but if it was done ‘to protect’, I don’t want to punish it.
but.
“If the circle recovers, what will you do? Do you intend to return to the tower and study magic?”
“What if it recovers?”
The guy who was lost in thought for a while staring blankly at my words opened his mouth.
“I don’t think it’s particularly likely.”
“The 5th circle. At that age, being in the 5th circle is not a bad achievement. Even if you study steadily again, you will easily become a good wizard.”
“That would be it.”
Lyall did not deny it.
Yes, I know my talent best.
It’s definitely not a bad talent, so it won’t be difficult to get a place in the top if you polish it a little more.
“But now I’m not so attracted to it.”
“why?”
“Ironically, I feel more alive now than when I was in the tower. Should I say I like saving people in trouble?”
Having said that, Riol’s complexion seemed quite comfortable.
However, it also slumped again for a moment and hit its head on the ground.
“Sorry! An impersonator dares to say this at will… ….”
“No, that’s okay.”
I asked the guy.
“So the reason you pretended to be a ‘hero’ was because you thought that side would be effective in saving people?”
“…Yes that’s right.”
I asked the guy who nodded.
“By the way, what is Purvalgis? Even if you impersonate, you will do it properly. What is that crappy impersonation?”
“Oh that…!”
He carefully began to explain why.
“I was trudging out of the tower, but I was caught by bad bandits.”
“hmm.”
“I was really close to dying. Did you see a kaleidoscope back then? But then… ….”
The boy suddenly spoke with a reverent expression.
“He is here.”
“…him?”
“Yes, he suddenly rose from the ground and in an instant destroyed the group of bandits who were trying to do something for me.”
It seems that he was quite capable. I’m very concerned about how it rose from the ground… ….
“so?”
understood.
That I was blessed by something that popped out of nowhere. But what does that have to do with impersonating a warrior?
“uh…Is that sweet?”
“hmm…?”
“I was just saved, and when I told them about the situation, they told me to change just one letter and get active…. The woman next to him said so.”
“…female?”
A mysterious man suddenly pops out of the ground and a woman next to him.
I think I’ll remember something.
“Did he reveal his name?”
“That little…It was unusual, but the name must have been… ….”
“The name?”
He hesitated at my words for a long time before opening his mouth.
“Dirge said…Are you saying?”
“….”
“….”
[…] ….]
There was nothing for anyone to say.
Not only Riall, but the three of us who had been quietly listening to it, were silent, no matter who said it first.
No, my brain just stopped.
After a while, he struggled to open his mouth.
“Wait more…what?”
“More.”
At that, I thought for a moment.
Why did the name ‘Dirge’ come out?
And if it is true that Dirge spoke of being a hero to Liol, then why did Dirge say that?
‘The name of the warrior is spreading.’
And if that happened, I would have intervened in it, thinking that I had been impersonated.
What then?
Of course, I can pinpoint my location. And that means that maybe Lyole is here… …
“ah.”
And the moment I realized that fact.
Kugoong!
– Ohhhhh!
The ground started to rumble like crazy.
It swayed as if something huge was seething from below.
Quaaaaaa!
Soon something popped out.
It landed with eyes shining bright red in the boiling dust.
– Jooeeeein!
Roared.
How much resentment he had, the roar made the entire space tremble.
At the same time, my body also trembled.
Is this what horror is?
The ‘something’ shouted again with the ugly line that a bald warrior somewhere would do.
– Your spirit is back! You must destroy your master!
With those words, the twin swords that were terrifying to the point of dizziness spewed out flames in both hands.
“….”
…Do you have any more?
* * *
The whole area was literally shocked and terrified.
Whatever it was, the assailant glared at me vigorously.
To have been fighting in a cold sweat for so long… ….
“Yes, I am back!”
A girl suddenly raised her hand and jumped out from behind.
Holding the pillow, the girl stood next to something and looked at me.
I sneakily asked Riol, who was dumbfounded next to me.
“Is that more?”
“I heard that it is…?”
“….”
Again, his gaze shifted to the muscular, massive warrior. Then I recalled the little Dirge in my memory.
Zuin!
When I raise my head, a gigantic spirit that doesn’t match the impression I had at that time is glaring at me.
– He will cut his master’s throat.
Unknowingly, I stuttered.
“Is it more? Why did you suddenly appear in front of me with such a ferocious figure? Were we good… ….”
– How good people leave the spirits unattended for 3 years.
“….”
I know. Thinking so, I must have been the one to kill a lot.
I had nothing to say, so I glanced at the girl standing next to Dirge.
“Ammut.”
“Yes, Mikhail! I am back with my partner!”
“Did you do something?”
Just looking at cancer, this is not a change that will happen after 3 years.
This is the level where Dirge became Dirge Beros.
The paper just changed.
At that, Ammut confidently asked back.
“I did it and it’s Nabal and you didn’t find it for three more years.”
“….”
“A person must have a conscience.”
I couldn’t think of anything to refute.
Again Ammut shouted.
“Of course I did sip some Berserker Potion that Dirge stumbled upon while digging some tunnels the other day! But it doesn’t seem like it’s my fault!”
“….”
“I know! This is the skin wavelength error! Right now, Mikhail, you’re building a build-up to obscure the point and blame me!”
“hmm.”
Damn did you hear
Breaking out in a cold sweat, I looked back at Dirge.
After I annihilated the Demon God, I really didn’t feel a threat to my life.
‘…If I do this really wrong, I’ll die?’
Overpowered, Dudge breaks Mikhail’s bones and flesh.
…maybe.
