302. Black magic (2)
Black magic.
A demon’s secret technique that is allowed only to geniuses and assists by twisting everything.
Surprisingly, despite learning this, I didn’t think much had changed.
‘I feel the same way as when I used my sword skills on my own for the first time.’
It was worth it.
So far, all I’ve spent learning black magic is time and mental strength.
At best, he had only considered and realized what black magic essentially meant.
Like Alkaid said, he didn’t feel that black magic was the exclusive property of geniuses.
‘Does this have room for real talent to play a big role?’
But…
―…Are you crazy?
There was no time to continue worrying, as the Blood Heaven Demon Sword trembled and Damcheonwoo’s voice was heard.
―How is it that you, a mere human, are using the secret arts of the demons? And don’t you think that’s a talent in itself?
[He’s not a human, he’s a god…]
―…Even so, Magi is a different kind of power from divinity. Control ability to handle it freely and intuition to see the essence. Those two are bound to be in the realm of talent.
[ …. ]
There is nothing to say if you insist on that.
In a way, controlling demons wouldn’t be that easy.
Perhaps being able to control demons like this is part of the application of talent.
―Without thinking too complicatedly, your talent is outside the norm.
Thinking so, Dam Chun-wu continued with a confident tone.
―So, isn’t that goblin over there also angry?
It’s nothing else…
“Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha…!!”
alkyd.
A goblin who took the place of 62 of the 72 lords of the Pandemonium.
All of a sudden, he let out a foreign laugh that was steeped in madness.
It looks like she’s crying, but at the same time she’s laughing like crazy, and at the same time, she’s deeply despairing.
“Until now… until now, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!”
Alkaid’s yellow eyes flashed wide and shed tears of blood as he shouted.
“What on earth did you mean everything I’ve done up until now?!”
The dwarf goblin in front of me didn’t deny anything.
Until now, enemies vomited negativity in any form when they saw a power they could not comprehend.
Whether it was skill, divinity, or talent, there was no difference.
Perhaps it was some kind of self-protection mechanism, and he fell into the swamp of death, throwing up endless feelings of denial without acknowledging his flaws.
“If that’s the true meaning of black magic you’re talking about…”
But Alkaid is different.
“I, I… I just did an asshole, didn’t I…? And that’s an outrageous asshole…”
Not denying anything was not enough, so he accepted the true nature of black magic.
That’s why Alcaid’s madness and despair were unmatchable.
Laughter follows, followed by crying.
Seeing the mere little goblin sobbing in madness made me feel sad.
However, Alkaid’s sobs were short-lived.
“Then… let’s challenge…”
Suddenly, Alkaid’s goblin’s unique yellow eyes were filled with feelings close to obsession.
“I will prove that my dark magic is correct by defeating you here…!!”
Alkaid howled bitterly and expressed his feelings stained with hatred.
“Then it won’t be possible for all of my useless outbursts!!”
and.
“Distort aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Soon, the moment when Alkaid shouted with all his body in the black magic starter.
“The shadow of a thunderbolt hiding in the darkness.”
As it was, Alkaid’s incantation continued so plainly that it gave goosebumps.
Kkwajijijijijijikjik—!!
In an instant, the fortress of the monarchy was destroyed by Magi.
Before I knew it, black lightning pierced the ceiling of the fort, piercing everywhere, and at once, the purple sky of the devil world was revealed.
And…
“The supreme black magic comes from attack, not support…!!”
Magi’s thunderbolt, dyed in black, rises to the heavens like an Imoogi attempting to ascend.
“I will prove it!!”
As if going against the set answer, the black thunderbolt of Alkaid continues the ascension.
“This is the black magic I have built up, and this will be the true black magic!”
Alkaid said that as if he had even forgotten that he had assumed the position of monarch before he knew it.
However, Alkaid’s black magic was definitely different from before.
It was because the black lightning that soared into the heavens drew a circle and raised its power.
At least a direct hit would shatter the divine armor.
It was enough for Alkaid himself to declare that he would establish a new definition of black magic.
But I wasn’t too worried.
[Well. ]
That would be the case…
[Didn’t I tell you? ]
Unlike before, now I can handle black magic.
[Now I think I can handle black magic better than you. ]
And.
Wheein-!
In an instant, the black halo rotated fiercely on his back, creating a black light.
At first glance, it looks like a Halo with only black color.
The ability of the black halo created through black magic was simple.
Right away…
‘I can easily mix black magic with divinity with a black halo.’
The black halo dyed in the armor of the divine is close to a kind of black magic auxiliary system.
Just as the evil god mixed the divinity with black magic in the trial of the earnest desire before….
Through the black halo, I can also mix the divine authority with black magic.
That too is very natural.
[Now I can check it once. ]
So…
[What happens when black magic is mixed with divinity. ]
Now it’s time to see the newly acquired combination of powers with your own two eyes.
「Using Divine < Death >」
「Can control the death of everything eroded by Divine < Death >.」
「Divine < Death > can be strengthened with black magic by [Black Halo].」
Black The essence of the magic was simple.
To supplement the concept of what is originally by twisting it in part.
If so, there was definitely room for this to be used for divine authority.
「Divine < Death > is [Black Halo], and the target is twisted and enlarged.」
That’s how it is.
“Thunderbolt of distorted shadows!!”
Right after Alkaid shed bloody tears and screamed in rage.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh-!!
As it was, the dark clouds that dyed the purple sky black concentrated all at once in one place, and lightning flashed.
Then, the crashed torpedo became a spear that pierced the ground.
…Or, to be more precise, is it correct to say that I was trying to penetrate?
Kkwajijijijijik—!
Suddenly, the black thunderbolt shook as it was at the same time as the distortion of the space continued.
It looks like a beast on the brink of dying.
However, even so, the incident did not happen, and the black thunderbolt disappeared as if it were facing death.
Seeing the black lightning dissipate like that, I smiled.
[It really goes as I thought. ]
It’s nothing else….
[Did you succeed in annihilating the space itself with Divine < Death >? ]
Divine < Death > annihilated the black thunderbolt into space.
***
Why can the divinity < death >, which is originally applicable only to living things, be applied to abstract concepts such as space?
[Hmm….]
It was simple.
[I never thought black magic could expand the range of application of divine < death >. ]
The creature application category of divine < death > is twisted so that it can be applied to the concept of space.
By using the power of black magic [Black Halo].
At most, it was possible to use more practical than I thought for the black magic I had just created in the battle with Alkaid.
Being able to strengthen the power of the Divine by connecting it to the Divine itself in the form of a supplement to the Divine Armor… It was
really useful.
Then, as the black thunderbolt dissipated in the sky, Alkaid’s panicked voice was heard.
“What…”
It was just like that.
“What the hell is this…”
He probably didn’t know that space would be annihilated with divine < death >.
Actually, I wasn’t sure until I tried it myself.
However, after twisting the application range of divine < Death > with the black magic [Black Halo], my thoughts hardened.
Now, the conviction that the divine < death > does not have to be applied only to life is firm.
“How could this be…”
And enjoying the newly acquired state, Alkaid muttered.
“Are you saying that the shadow of the thunderbolt hiding in the darkness was completely annihilated by merging it into space…?”
Perhaps this time, he noticed that the black thunderbolt was annihilated in space with the divine < death >…
Anyway, that didn’t change anything.
As it was, I looked at Alkaid and said.
[Are we done showing black magic now? ]
“……Ah.”
[Otherwise-. ]
“……Shut up!!”
Kwa-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-chachang─!!
Alkaid then fired a black bullet while shedding tears of blood as if in a half-attack.
In the twinkling of an eye, dozens of black magic unfolded, staining the air with demonic energy.
The spell floated as if blinding, and the chant whispered in his ear as if disturbing.
But that’s it.
‘Now I’ve completely lost my temper.’
Alkaid lost the cool-headedness he had before and just used black magic at random.
No more goblins reached their pinnacle solely with their talent for dark magic.
There are only losers half-desperate for failing to prove themselves.
And I dealt with Alkaid for a few more minutes, trying to get something out of him.
Is there still a remnant of cool-headed reason left?
‘…It’s not like before, but it’s definitely sharp.’
Alkaid combined dozens of black magic and developed different strategies.
The spells that unfolded without stopping even for a moment didn’t give me a chance to breathe…
but now there was no such interesting black magic, and Alkaid was reaching its limit.
Perhaps Alkaid also noticed that it was difficult to run away anymore, so he suddenly summoned more strength and attacked like a hwangwangbanjo.
However, after dealing with it a few times, I got tired of it.
‘I want to roughly end the battle now.’
It was a battle that would end in about an hour at most.
There was no reason to fight if there were no more skills to gain and no enemies to gain experience anyway.
And while I was thinking about how to finish it, suddenly a very good idea popped into my head.
[Come to think of it, was the black magic you showed me like this? ]
Exactly….
【An unexpected haven. 】
It is to follow Alkaid’s black magic that interfered with the authority skill before.
However, the effect of the black magic [Unwanted Sanctuary] was completely different from that of Alkaid.
At most, Alkaid only converted one power skill to cooldown….
This time, the black magic I used [Unwanted Sanctuary] was able to seal the enemy’s magic itself.
‘Originally, it wouldn’t have been possible to do this even with the dark magic [Unwanted Sanctuary].’
It was worth it.
「The Transcendence Myth < Spirit Tuning > is activated.」
「From now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon’s Divine operation will have the Divine effect of < Spirit Unbreakable >.
」 You can become equal with your opponent.”
“※ If you cannot withstand the accumulated burden from the rise in rank, the power of < Spirit Indomitability > may stop.
” .」
「※It becomes possible to freely adjust and handle the spiritual attack you possess.」 「
※You can tune the formless power with the spiritual attack and apply the effect of the spiritual attack to that power.
」 A state imbued with magic.
So, the effect of the black magic [Unwanted Sanctuary] had no choice but to increase as well.
That’s why it was possible to use non-standard spells that temporarily sealed all of Alkaid’s black magic.
…well, at least it’s just a sealed seal that will be released in about a minute at the longest anyway.
“this is…!”
Still, this was enough.
“Are you insulting me until the very end!!”
At least to bring death to Alkaid.
[ no. ]
And.
[I have no idea. ]
next moment.
[After all, you’re nothing more than someone to learn black magic from. ]
Slowly—!
As he cut Alkaid’s head, system messages appeared in front of him.
「Absorbed the command of the demon lord ‘Alkaid’.」
「Challenger Han Seong-yoon won 8.7% closer to the 2nd ascension by winning against the monarch.
」 A+)”
「From now on, the level of talent related to black magic of challenger Han Seong-
yoon will increase significantly
. 」
