‘Heh heh…’
Marquis Mason laughed inwardly at Russell’s words.
‘It’s a search battle.’
He was only a young man in his mid-twenties or so. How could such a young man say such a thing to himself?
It’s something I’ve never even imagined in my entire life. But even if others didn’t know, the young man in front of him had the right to say such things.
In fact, the young man’s skills were his and Baek’s middle age. It was a dangerous tightrope that even a mistake could lead to defeat.
Marquis Mason nodded, feeling a cold sweat running down his back.
‘Yes, I should stop searching.’
It is a fight that will change the terrain and rewrite the map in one blow.
In the eyes of others, it must have been a fight worthy of astonishment. However, from the standpoint of the two superhumans who reached the stage, he was only warming up lightly.
Didn’t the momentum flowing from Russell change as if to prove that fact?
Whoaaah-!
Dust in the area was pushed away by the engrossing magical energy that arose as the eight circles rotated.
The pressure generated by the excessively high magical power density suppresses the feet and emits a grotesque sound.
Kwadeuk Kwadeuk-!
As if in response, the momentum from Marquis Mason’s body pushed back Russell’s.
Paji Paji Jit-.
The two forces collided and sparks flew.
As the sparks spread in all directions, Marquis Mason, like Russell, activated the magic that he possessed.
Heavenly Palace Boreas was no longer in his hand, but he had several other divine powers besides that.
‘The leather shoes of Hermes.’
As soon as magic power is injected, small green wings sprout along the heels.
These shoes were worn by Hermes, the messenger god of Olympia.
It is said that you can run down the road of a gale just by wearing them, and you can climb through the air like stairs.
As if to prove that fact, the new type of Marquis Mason rose about a span into the air.
Then, a bright halo radiated along his shoulder line, forming a ring of light.
Hwaaak-! What Russell felt in
the ring of light that radiated light like sunlight
was the scorching heat and the familiar divinity.
‘Is this the divinity of Olympia? Among them, if it’s the sun…’
Marquis Mason stretched out his hand as if to show that it was true.
Anger-.
He grabbed some of the rings of light that flowed along his shoulder line.
An action like pulling an arrow out of an electric strap on your back.
Right after that, some of the rings of light stretched out and turned into long arrows.
“It is the arrow of Apollo, the sun god.”
Apollo is also famous for symbolizing archery at the same time as the sun.
Marquis Mason pulled a protest with the eyes of a hunter aiming for prey, showing off the magic of the legend.
“Where can I avoid it?”
The arrow of the god, who boasted of 100 feet, rushed toward Russell in an instant.
Wedge-!

since when
“Don’t get involved!”
“Get your mind right!”
“Don’t get caught up in it and keep the line!”
The aspect of the war started to flow strangely.
“You want to die! stand back!”
“Don’t get too close!”
The fact that the clash of a small number of supermen began to occupy a wider battlefield than the clash of hundreds of thousands of troops.
It was a bizarre phenomenon, but it was natural for people in this world.
Monsters that call storms with magic, rain down lightning, slash mountains with swords, and return rivers.
Literally called superhumans, they have been with them ever since the continent’s civilization began.
Rather than trying to help, maintaining the battle line—.
Everyone present instinctively knew that it was better to use the battlefield more widely than to get caught up in it.
Also the fact that the direction of this fight is determined by their victory or defeat.
“Kyahahahaha!”
“A monstrous bitch….”
“Isn’t this a beast of prey?”
The two sword masters on the imperial side who were dealing with Muyaho made a sound of pain as they were repeatedly pushed back.
Even with as many as two superhuman powers, they could only survive.
What a monstrous force!
Shoot ah!
On the other side, tidal waves erupted non-stop, the ground cracked and boiling groundwater charged high into the sky like a geyser.
The rays of light that fell from the sun split the ground and, as if responding to it, the arrows of the elves hit the rear of the imperial army.
Ferber Bubbuck-!
Respect for life is a series of natural disasters that would be good.
Nonetheless, neither side backed down.
On the contrary, he had poisonous spirits and even rushed at him more and more.
“Kill, kill!”
“Push it—! It’s attaching wires!”
Because it was an all-out war in which both countries gathered the majority of their forces.
He knew that the moment he was pushed back, the victory would go over to the enemy.
If that is not enough, the national fortune will also be greatly shaken.
Koo Woo-.
hours thereafter.
One of the magical powers that had been pressing down on the area was slowly disintegrating.
The magic that was like a burning horse that burned wildly is gone, and what remains is a precarious ember that seems to be extinguished even by a small wind.
Two archmages representing both countries.
It was the moment when the fight between Rodrick and Daria, who had turned into an Arch-Rich, was coming to an end.
.
.
…Gwaaaaa!
The whole body was entangled in a huge tree of flame, and the Arch Lich twisted his body around.
However, the tree roots and branches penetrating his body each time only tightened the body and burned it.
The robe he was wearing had long since turned to rags from the fierce battle.
Every time he wriggled, his black-bone body rattled hideously.
It was, in fact, a last resort.
It won’t be long before the tree vines digging through his body will find and destroy his life force vessel.
No matter how great a lich is, it will not be able to move until the core of magical power that maintained its existence is gone.
Daria let out a long breath as she watched the scene.
“…I’m going to die.”
Uncharacteristically for her, it was a pained voice full of sincerity.
It has to be.
It was a fight that lasted for hours without a break.
Wasn’t that not an ordinary fight, but a fight enough to completely overturn the area of several kilometers around and cause a change in the earth’s crust?
The clouds that had covered the entire sky due to the pouring out heat and shock waves had long since completely evaporated and disappeared.
No matter how much magic she boasted, she couldn’t help but get tired. In addition, as if proving that the opponent was also a strong enemy, Daria’s physical condition was also not perfect.
Not only did her face turn pale from how much blood had been shed, but her right side was horribly ripped off as if it had been attacked.
In my mind, I wanted to forcefully stop the bleeding using flame magic, but…
‘If I do, I’ll lose my mind.’
Even if he was an 8th Circle Archmage, he would be defenseless if he let go of his mind, and the battlefield was a place where he could lose his life even with a blind sword.
What’s more, the biggest wound was not the ripped off side, but the left arm that was almost completely crushed.
There should have been only three joints in her arms, including her shoulders, but her arms were already bent more than twice that.
Broken bones slipped through the fabric, and blood dripped along the ends…
Broken shoes and pools of blood soaking him.
─Goa….
The moment I heard the last words of Rodrick who was dying.
“Ugh.”
With intense dizziness, her body swayed greatly.
It was then.
chuck-.
The skinny forearm that appeared out of nowhere supported her as she fell.
“I wouldn’t have fallen if I hadn’t helped.”
The old man Hemingway, who appeared in Daria’s curt voice, nodded as if he was used to it.
“I know. owner.”
“joy. Not fun.”
Daria snorts at that voice, which is even calm.
Contrary to how he uttered his actions and words, his expression seemed quite comfortable being supported by Hemingway.
After a moment of silence, Hemingway was the first to speak.
“Good job.”
Bubbly-.
Magical power like spring water flowed down the palm of her hand and wrapped around Daria’s wound.
The place where the most bubbles are located is the left arm that has been completely smashed.
It was a healing spring, one of his Originality spells. Of course, it’s not a wound that can be cured with this level of magic, but-.
‘Still, I’ll be able to prevent the deterioration of the condition.’
It was magic that unfolded along with such thoughts.
“What is the trouble?”
“I worked hard, so when I go back, I will treat my owner with tea and snacks. Not too long ago, I heard a story of new members of the tower talking about how delicious the cookies at the new cafe are.”
If it was a new cafe near the window tower…
Daria, who had already taken him up, smiled and shook her head.
“I don’t like sweets anymore. this inspiration.”
At her words that followed, Hemingway’s eyes shook violently.
It was because she was well aware of the meaning of sweets, including sweets, that she had.
“That’s…”
Daria moved her eyes and stared at various places on the battlefield.
From Vermilion Wolsen Hubert and Russell.
She muttered as she looked back at the disciples who were fighting their own battles.
“Haven’t you grown up that much? I should let go now.”
And—
“Because if I don’t let him go, he won’t be able to leave in peace.”
A voice that was not sad but even saddened. While hesitating not knowing what to say, Daria’s voice continued again.
“So, buy a normal meal instead of snacks.”
“…?”
Eyes shaking violently in a different meaning from a moment ago.
Hiding her face behind her hair, Daria changed the subject.
“Rather than that, Roderick. There was something strange about the magic of that inspiration.”
“The inspiration was originally strange.”
“…No, not that, you old man like this burner.”
Slightly annoyed, she lowered her gaze. He said while staring at his own wounds that were dyeing Hemingway’s magic red.
“Because I became an Arch Lich, it’s okay to deal with dark magic, but that strange yet terrible energy…”
“A strange yet terrible energy?”
“That’s right. It was just a little bit of the magic that the inspiration poured out, but it was like an energy that didn’t seem to be of this world.”
“hmm.”
The wizard called the strongest on the continent was Daria.
It can’t be seen that she was mistaken.
“I thought it might not have been a war simply involving cultists…”
“Now I have no idea what lies behind it.”
Saying that, the two archmages stiffened their faces in unison.
And in the next moment, the magic that surrounded Russell exploded in a frenzy.
Russell Raymond.
