Episode 71
– This is not my true intention.
With those words, the first hero stretched out his hand.
To be precise, it would be more accurate to say that the eyes of the demon god did that.
The first hero is the one who blocks it.
I was trying to somehow suppress the sudden action of the demon god’s eyes.
Even that seemed unreasonable.
“Nice to meet you, sir.”
He said, cutting off the magic bullets flying towards me.
-senior?
“Because I am the candidate for the hero this time. I came here to say hello as a courtesy.”
– Hoo.
“It’s an honor to meet you like this, but it’s not a situation where we’ll be seeing each other for that long.”
-That’s what it looks like.
The first hero said that and his arms trembled.
Although there is not much left, it must be that he is trying to resist the demon’s eyes somehow.
“How did you end up like that?”
-It’s just a common story.
While trembling, he tried to suppress the demon’s eyes somehow, and continued talking.
– It happened without me knowing. They hid, but when it was time to die, they began to act. By the time you noticed, it was already too late.
In the meantime, the first hero’s hand formed magic on its own.
Quaang!
I expected that much, so I deployed a shield to block the first hero’s attack.
– It’s an ugly story.
My fingertips are tingling.
No matter how much he did not move according to his own will, the strength of the first warrior was not to be underestimated.
‘This is the result of weakening as soon as it weakens, right?’
20% of your life?
Should it be considered that much?
The power of the whole body has almost evaporated, and even the muscles are gone. The state of being in motion is miraculous.
It must be said that the demon’s eyes forcefully move the hero.
“Did the demon directly intervene?”
-That’s not it.
After the first hero said that, he forcibly broke his hand.
-First of all, I’ve been awake like this to prevent that from happening.
He said that and looked over my shoulder.
Then he lowered his head slightly.
– Meet the Old Ones.
[…] …Can you see me?]
The first hero nodded quietly.
I tried to keep my body still, but it seemed like it was impossible.
he moved
While moving, he did not stop talking.
– I see. An old being close to him. I didn’t listen closely, but he would talk from time to time.
[Huh.]
Set smiled slightly, as if he was happy to see the being who realized something about him after a long time.
“no.”
Quaang! Kwaaang!
“Right now, this side is blocking attacks, so is it nice to have a casual conversation like that?”
[What are you talking about when the storm is automatically blocking all attacks… ….]
Set looked at me with a bewildered expression.
“You lack emotion.”
Originally, I had this feeling.
I clicked my tongue as I watched the spells neutralized by the storm.
Should I really call it the invited hero?
Even if it was simple magic, its proficiency was not normal.
It is surprising that this is the result of suppressing it as much as possible.
but.
“Come to think of it, you haven’t been using Aura since a while ago. Are you holding back on purpose?”
– Oh, that’s not it.
Then the first warrior raised his hand.
At that moment, a clear magic circle formed on his hand.
-I was a wizard.
“…yes?”
No, this is a bit of a surprise.
Electricity was fired straight from the first hero’s magic circle.
I snapped my finger and instantly cast a circle 2 magic fire bolt and it exploded.
-That’s the literal meaning. In the world, there are many eyes that see me as a paladin… ….
Quaang!
-I was a wizard.
“No, the Holy Sword…-
His Holiness at the time gave me the Holy Sword because it was out of shape. It’s a somewhat holy sword in appearance. It was supposed to serve as a holy sword, but it was made quite well.
“her.”
no what is this
I opened my mouth to a secret story I had never heard of before returning.
It was such a truth that even I, who was not agitated at all, felt perplexed.
-So, the holy sword is more for decoration, and if I had to choose one that was close to my real symbol, it would be a ‘saint’s robe’. It’s a holy relic that is imbued with all kinds of blessings.
“I’d love to have some of that.”
If the holy sword was merely an object made for a simple pretext, then the saint’s robe was said to be the real warrior’s sacred object.
I have a craving for it.
I was a bit dissatisfied with the clothes I wore these days.
-I’m already dead, so it doesn’t matter who takes it. one before… …If you’re a warrior… …there must be work to be done
“I know.”
– To be honest, now I’m thinking that I’ve really endured to the limit. I guess… …now…
Little by little, the words of the first hero were cut off.
It’s probably hard to hold on any longer.
-rest of it…take… …chaff…
With those words, the movement that had somehow been restrained stopped.
The hero’s corpse stood with its head bowed helplessly… ….
– Kigeek.
The right eye smiled.
Then, with a bizarre movement, the eyes of the demon god, not the first hero, moved.
[What I endured until now is melting. On the surface, I tried to keep my composure, but maybe….]
“I must have already been completely mentally worn out. know.”
I don’t know how long the first hero endured.
However, it must have been long enough to mentally drive even the first hero with a strong spirit.
“Let’s solve it.”
[Yes.]
Let’s at least give the great hero a clean finish.
Like a legend, so that there will be no regrets.
“< Circle Expansion >.”
The circle spun rapidly and two more loops were woven.
‘Shall we go?’
At the same time, the eyes of the demon god on the other side also moved.
* * *
A lot has changed since he reached the 6th circle.
Considering that the criterion that is actually called ‘high circle’ is the 6th circle, it’s natural, but it was even more special to me.
‘Circle 8.’
It is under the premise that Circle Expansion is used, but you can use the magic of the 8th circle anyway.
Of course, there is a limit to the 8th circle magic that can be used with Circle Expansion.
At around 8th circle, isn’t it a level where you can cover everything with a temporary circle?
but.
‘Anyway, being able to use the magic of the 8th circle is important.’
even if it’s only part of it.
Whether that is possible or not makes a big difference. Does the quality of magic itself change from the 8th circle?
Right now, even now.
‘Let’s go out strong.’
I immediately cast the prepared magic.
“< Frozen throne.” The white crystals that bloomed from her fingertips spread out to the surroundings in an instant. Freezing freezes the entire basement filled with demonic remnants. Circle 8 magic ice throne. A powerful magic that transforms the surroundings into a frozen zone at the same time as the chanting. But the scale was different. The entire cavity, which could never be considered narrow, froze. -Key geek? It tilted its head as if it couldn't understand. Then he slowly stretched out his hand. Kwak Kwa Kwak! At that moment, the completely frozen remnants began to boil and exploded all at once. Laughter echoed in the cavity. Circle 8 can be said to be the highest level of magic at this point, but is it easy to block this as well? [It won't be easy to deal with this much remnant.] "It's okay." If I hadn't expected this much, I wouldn't have come down like this. “I already have a sense of how to deal with them.” At that moment, the foot he was standing on began to fall. “Tsk < Blink >.”
I used the magic as it was to move into the air and used the next magic again.
multicasting.
“< Fire Lane >.”
An orb of bright red flame rose from the air. And dozens of hundreds of embers rose from the sphere.
“Pour it out.”
Kwagwagwa!
It just started pouring in all directions.
The remnants that tried to stretch their tentacles towards me also hesitated.
at that time.
The demon’s eyes, which had been watching the situation quietly and motionless, suddenly moved.
Around him, dozens of magic circles suddenly appeared.
‘Did you look at the memory of the invitation?’
According to the words of the first hero, there is nothing to grow for some of the demons.
i.e. simply instinctively.
It reads the memory of the first hero and reproduces it.
“no.”
The problem is that the magic he recreated isn’t all ordinary.
“…6 circles?”
All of the magic circles that are filling up around him right now are Circle 6.
The 6th circle itself isn’t surprising, but it’s different when there are dozens of them.
Besides, perfection isn’t usually skillful.
The saying that the first hero was a wizard must have been true.
[Mikhail!]
“I know.”
If all of them are circle 6, you can’t defend everything with storm alone.
It won’t be difficult to block if you use absolute defense.
‘It’s a waste to consume it now.’
With that thought in mind, I stretched my hand upwards.
Besides, if I dragged out time in this state, I would be at a disadvantage.
It ends with a quick conclusion.
First of all, all kinds of strengthening magic were applied to the body using multi-casting.
Haste Strength Shedding Armor… ….
As soon as I cast all of the strengthening magics, his magics were pouring towards me.
‘Sometimes ancient magic is also mixed in.’
Perhaps even if the first hero’s body had been a little more normal, he wouldn’t have been able to relax like this.
But thankfully.
“I mean, it’s not normal.”
A body so weakened that it would not be strange if it collapsed at any time.
thud!
The staff was raised high.
A storm on the set began to rage on the staff.
But that alone couldn’t withstand the pile of magic from the 6th circle.
Unless it’s absolute defense.
There are certainly limits to the attacks that the storm can defend against.
then how about this
“< Mana Condensation >.”
It condenses mana to the fullest.
Even if you can’t do it, it’s a level 7 mana.
Mana turned into a blue ball and hovered over my head.
And when the magic of the 6th circle came right in front of me.
“< Liberation >.”
As it is, the concentrated mana was released.
The released mana rode the staff and mixed with the storm.
The storm raged furiously and began to scratch the surroundings with the released mana.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
The magic of the 6th circle directly hit by the storm exploded and disappeared.
between the thick dust.
take the gap
“< blink >.”
I closed my distance with him.
But he wasn’t standing still either.
Only instincts remained, and even if it was an insignificant part, a demon was a demon.
Immediately after confirming the memory of the first hero, he quickly concludes the magic of the 7th circle.
momentary gap.
It was a moment that could be reversed if it was delayed even a little.
Keying.
A bright red beam of light shot towards me from his side.
He must be thinking of buying a little time before the magic of the 7th circle is concluded.
but.
“< Cancel >.”
You’re not the only one who thought that.
I, too, used the nullification magic I had prepared to make his magic disappear.
The demon’s eyes showed a bewildered expression.
It made me feel so refreshed that I smiled unconsciously.
and.
– Kikek?!
I grabbed the head of the guy who was trying to do something more. A ferocious smile naturally formed on his lips.
“I finally caught the baby.”
I smirked as I grabbed the face of the man who flinched.
“Then < Divine Fist >.”
A bright light burst out.
Divine fist (Divine fist)
Normal magic cannot completely annihilate some of the demons, so this divine magic has been prepared.
most special magic.
Yes, it is my own magic.
He even clenched his fists, which had been strengthened to the max even in terms of muscular strength.
The old sage said
Highly developed fists become indistinguishable from magic.
‘I’ll borrow the Beast King.’
Fellow beast king of the same expedition.
He was the world’s strongest martial artist and a superhuman born with a body close to perfection.
I am not a proper martial artist, so there is no way I can completely imitate his transcendent state.
However, that ‘imperfect imitation’ was enough to put an end to it.
just one blow.
A deadly blow that combines all kinds of strengthening magic, divine spells, and three kinds of divine power.
“Excuse me, sir.”
Hwaaak!
Brilliant light that hurt both eyes was reflected on my fist.
As it was, he took a posture while recalling the motion of the Beast King.
and….
Pooh!
Thanks to the light, my fist pierced his stomach.
The holy white light embraced the hero’s body.
Great mage who transcends by regression
