EPISODE.136
The time when Russell and the Emperor were fighting fiercely.
Strange things were happening in the Empire’s ecliptic.
Goo Goo Goo Goo-.
A strange wave that flowed out from the imperial palace swept the ecliptic, and people collapsed each time.
“Uh huh?”
“Hey, wake up!”
“My daughter, my daughter!”
First, children, the elderly, pregnant women, and people with weak bodies.
After a few more waves, the sturdy men also collapsed.
“Four people are down!”
“Someone please help. Someone… groan!”
The survivors also clutched their necks and collapsed one after another on the spot.
There was no difference between a knight and a wizard who had learned magic and aura.
I survived a little longer than the others, but that’s it.
As if something had sucked out the vitality of his whole body, he collapsed, drying up like a mummy.
Dooung-.
At the center of the wave, Thanatos slowly lowered his head.
“Come. Come here.”
He knelt down on one knee and prayed in a reverent posture.
“The disaster outside the world, the one who will be recorded as an evil god. Come here.”
A pious act more befitting a priest than a cultist.
Wasn’t the reason why he stayed here without participating in the war, despite being the owner of the Black Tower, to proceed with this ceremony?
Citizens of the Ecliptic. In addition to that, if you add all the subjects who died as undead and those who were sacrificed in the war, it would be enough to sacrifice tens of millions of lives.
human sacrifice.
A being who coveted the sacrifice was flowing toward this material world from outside the world.
Squeeze-.
slowly but clearly.
* * *
Kwagwagwagwa-!
Magic power collides with magic power, and colorful magic power colors the sky with an explosion.
Gray, black, greyish white, etc. Achromatic mana was scattered in all directions.
As if it were about to devour him, red and blue—all natural colors of mana roared without ceasing.
Magical power, like an aurora of aurora or a curtain of various colors, painted over the heavens and tore the curtain apart, and Russell swung the spear of flame in his hand.
『Russell Raymond’s decisive battle.』
『Fire spear.
』
high-temperature and high-pressure flames.
The clouds in its path evaporate all at once, turning the sky red.
As if to respond to it, a jet-black sword suddenly emerged from the air and rushed toward Russell, drawing a strange trajectory.
Whee ae ae ae-!
A fight that only lasted about ten minutes. However, in the meantime, the number of workshops between the two has easily exceeded the sum of several hundred.
Gaebolg, Hell Fire, Keraunos, Mana, Bomb, etc….
Several magics are completed in the moment of not even half breathing, and they attack the emperor all at once and bang!
The emperor, who blocked the attacks by inflating his alien black magic as large as a cloak, stretched out his finger toward Russell.
They flicked their five fingers at once and fired a yellow arrow.
Follow me-!
Every time his fingertips struck the air, a steel-thumping sound echoed, and black lines rushed toward Russell.
‘Is it a way to increase the number rather than power!’
Instead of concentrating the power into one, split it into several pieces and scatter them!
Gurlureung-!
The Netherslayer’s magical energy passed by Russell and collided with the ground, creating a high dust cloud.
Along with him, poisonous smoke that stings his nose and eyes surged up from the ground.
The Netherslayer was a magical arrow that shot out all kinds of grudges and cursed diseases.
There was no way the land that had been hit directly by such an arrow would be fine.
I don’t know, but it won’t be easy to even grow a single blade of grass in that land for decades from now.
Thinking so, Russell changed the shape of the spear.
Guryong Mythical Bird. A cage made of flames surrounds the emperor, and within it, nine fire dragons start rampaging wildly.
Krrrrrr-!
The fight between the two wizards that followed lasted only a few minutes. However, the truth was that it was good.
Russell and the Emperor.
The two archmages were spewing out magic, splitting the passing time into dozens and hundreds.
A fight aiming at each other between instants and instants.
Quite a few sword masters and tower owners can’t even interfere, let alone intervene in the fight between the two!
As if proving that fact, the tail of a dragon that appeared out of nowhere struck the emperor from top to bottom.
bang!
A blow that uses partial dragon transformation. However, the emperor also did not let himself be stunned.
“Not once, not twice. Do you think you will be beaten three times!”
It seems that his pride was hurt because he was hit by a tail that was whipped like a whip for the first time and a flesh-and-blood charge that changed into the shape of a complete dragon.
Dozens of awls of despair emerged from the cracked dark sound dimension and dug into Russell’s abdomen like a beehive.
Enduring the pain of turning his eyes white, the stab he fired pierced the emperor’s right shoulder.
In addition to the fire spear, an attack that added La Mancha’s spear technique, killing the giant!
Pooh-!
No blood came out. The moment the spear was stabbed, the heat from the firepoint evaporated all the blood around the penetrating part.
If he hadn’t blocked the heat with magical powers, not only would the blood in his body evaporated, but his entire body would have been engulfed in flames and he would have died.
“A worthless mortal in an age of weakness!”
Even though he inherited the lineage of the Dragon Lord and possesses transcendent level magic, Russell is still a mortal.
Grinding his teeth and moving his arms, he grabbed the pyrotechnic spear that had pierced his shoulder with his blackened arm.
Kwadeuk-!
Ominous magic rushed along the spearhead like a raging wave. He tried to stain Russell’s mind by staining the hand holding the spear.
‘Kuh…’
A battle of skills and skills.
I don’t know if it’s in terms of horsepower and firepower.
The quality part… As a magician, he did not have the ability to overcome the emperor yet.
That’s why Russell turned off the pyrotechnic spear first. Because he knew that if he continued like this, it would be an unfavorable fight for him.
The dark magic that flowed along the spearhead also quickly dispersed in the air and purred.
spurt.
The two wizards glared at each other and began to clash again.
Kwurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring!
.
.
It was a fierce battle, a close battle, and a bloody battle.
The clothes she was wearing had already become rags and had been torn for a long time, and the spilled blood evaporated from the heat and dried all over her body.
“Haha. Mandible.”
In the midst of that, Russell let out a rough breath.
It was because the body, which had become tattered due to the accumulation of fatigue and wounds after the continuous skirmishes, a huge magical power continued to rage inside the body.
A power that is so powerful that it cannot be controlled is like poison even to the person himself.
I wonder if there is another situation where that phrase fits so well.
Nonetheless, Russell continued to tease himself.
He rotated the circle, swung magic, and poured out magic along with casting.
It seemed that if I stopped my hand even for a moment, the emperor’s magical hand would dig into that gap.
Was it because of that effort?
The winner of a battle that never seemed to end was Russell.
bang-!
The magical power of the fire spear tore through the emperor’s defenses.
pierce his stomach
Next, Russell’s fist, which had been transformed into a dragon, struck the emperor’s temple.
jump-!
The sound of the blow hitting his temple pierced his ears clearly, and Russell reached out his hand again.
He swung the dragon’s claws, which were revealed when he cut them with the spear pointed in his stomach.
He bit off the emperor’s neck with his dragon’s teeth.
Kwadeuk!
Fuhuaak-!
At the same time as the blood coming out of the corner of the mouth, the blood rose high along the nape of the emperor’s neck.
Using the heat, not only melted all the organs, but also smashed the skull by hitting the temple, and cut off all the blood vessels leading to the heart using the fingernails.
Even that was not enough, so I tore off about a third (1/3) of the nape of my neck.
No matter how emperor he is, as long as he has human skin, he will not be able to survive with such a wound.
“I won… I won.”
Russell barely declared victory and the Emperor vomited blood.
“Cool…”
The emperor opened his mouth while floating in the air.
“Kuh. Hehehehahahaha!”
As if he had lost his mind, he vomited blood in succession and burst into a frenzy.
“What…wehehe.”
Russell, about to say something to the madman, vomited up a handful of dead blood.
As if it had suffered an internal injury, it is possible to see fragments of internal organs interspersed with the blood that was spit out.
Swoop-.
Russell continued, wiping away the flowing blood.
“What…so funny?”
“How cool. How could it not be funny?”
“…?”
“Because you are so blinded by the victory right in front of you that you don’t even know what kind of despair is coming. He is a monkey-like joker who said that he gained the magic of a transcendent, but did not get the level.”
Having said that all at once, he raised his head with difficulty, with a much paler face than before.
He looked up at the sky and said.
“purple. A calamity…the evil spirit has descended upon the material world!”
Beyond the cracked sky, something was peering into this world.
One-dimensional beings cannot perceive two-dimensional beings, and two-dimensional beings cannot recognize three-dimensional beings?
Assuming that the sentences recorded in the old book are true, they did not belong to this dimension.
The unknown that can exist only in the concept of looking down on the lower dimension from a higher dimension!
All Russell could distinguish was an indescribably powerful thought wave and a huge pupil between them.
One eye was looking down at the entire torn sky, how huge it was.
No, this was not the place to look down.
The place he looks down on is the imperial ecliptic.
Nevertheless, because of its enormous size, it only entered its territory even here.
A presence that can cover a vast distance with just one pupil of hundreds of kilometers!
‘How…that!’
You mean you didn’t notice? Because the mana of the aurora light colored the sky?
Or was it because he was wasting all his energy in the encounter with the emperor?
That kind of thing was good.
Because he had already reached close enough to look into this material world, and the scale was far greater than the foreign god he had encountered in the spirit world the day before.
If we can’t stop him, the world is over!
Thinking so, the moment Russell clenched his teeth, his heart was pounding!
My heart was beating loudly.
“Kuh-!”
The physical body finally reached its limit due to the mana that ran amok at random with the time limit.
If left as it is, not only will the circle explode, but the heart will also stop.
‘still!’
I gritted my teeth and tried to use a dragon, but nothing changed. Rather, only the heartbeat and pain grew stronger.
“Khehehe!”
Even in the midst of dying at that figure, the emperor laughed. Despite the moment when the winners and losers were clearly divided, he spoke triumphantly.
“That’s not a word. Dragon Lord of this age!”
As if he had a second chance…
“If it’s just this one small win, I’ll give it to you. Starting today, I will be reborn as a completely different being!”
He looked up at the sky and stretched his wild arms wide.
“You evil spirit! Your apostle is right here!”
With that cry, the purple light turned into a pillar of light and fell from the sky in a straight line.
A huge light emitting an ominous light swallowed the emperor.
Kwagwagwagwa!
At the same time, the same light fell over the imperial ecliptic.
A pillar of light that was huge and thick enough to cover the ecliptic exactly as it covered the emperor.
The emperor snared at Russell, whose consciousness was dimmed in a purple column with two pillars supporting the wide open sky.
“Material world! It’s time to meet the end!”
A storm of immeasurably far-off magical power swept through all directions at random.
───────── Kwagwagwagwa!
dragon-swallowed wizard
