– Volume 7, Chapter 24

174. The God of Magic. Zervand (1)

[Starting the 37th floor quest.]

[Defeat the boss on the 37th floor and pass.]

[Reward: Ankle brace submerged in the abyss]

[Secret reward: ???]

A familiar system window will appear.

Pass the shopkeeper and arrive at the area where the monsters are. Instead of moving right away, Taesan

began to check his newly acquired skill.

Taesan put his hand on the ground.

[You activated Lerazie’s area detection.]

Ugh.

A thick, black aura hit the ground and swept the entire floor.

At the same time, Taesan took on a different color from the numerous information of the labyrinth that came into his head.

The distance between passages connecting rooms.

size of each room.

And the number of monsters nestled in the room

.

I was able to get all that information.

“This is fine.”

[Beginner Black Magic: Detect Lellajie’s Area]

[Mana Consumption: 18]

[Basic Magic Consumption: 10]

[Proficiency Level: 1%]

[Sends a wave that reads all things in the demon Lellajie. You can know a lot of information within a certain range.]

If Perception allows you to know what is within your field of view, this skill

made it possible to grasp things within a certain range even if they are not within the field of view. It didn’t seem to be able to find out in detail like foresight, but if it was limited to reconnaissance, it was an excellent enough performance.

Taesan entered the room following the information provided by area detection.

Inside the room, a knight with two black swords was waiting for Taesan.

The knight who discovered Taesan immediately rushed at it, and Taesan also responded with a skill.

[You have activated Vital Point Designation.]

After designating the knight’s wrist as a vital point, avoid the swinging sword and stab the sword in the vital point.

Kaaang!

[2450 damage to a black knight holding twin swords.]

The knight’s body staggered greatly.

Drive the sword into the vital part in succession. The knight collapsed without even being able to resist.

“Good.”

I already knew it because I had experience using it in my previous life, but

it was also a very useful skill. Being able to designate vital points where you want in itself put pressure on your opponent.

Taishan continued to advance.

Soon after, I found a monster in the next room. Taesan waved his hand at the running knight.

[You activated Dekaravia’s Distorted Vegetation.]

Kugoo Goo!

The roots came out and began to engulf the room. The color was darker than before and the thickness was much thicker.

Because the mastery of black magic rose, the skill itself was strengthened.

The knight bound by the root struggled, but the root did not even budge.

Taesan smiled at the power beyond imagination.

With only 30% proficiency, if it was this much power, I was very curious about how strong it would become if I raised the proficiency even further.

Taesan dealt with the struggling knight and moved to the next room. This time, it was his turn to experiment with the newly learned offensive black magic.

[You activated Seir’s Black Wind.]

A black storm arose at that moment.

It was so large that it couldn’t even fill a room, but the power contained in it was not to be underestimated. The knight hit by the storm was blown away and crashed into the wall.

Taesan activated the black wind a few more times to the knight who staggered to his feet. Depending on how Taishan was used, the wind took the form of a blade or a storm.

“Not bad.”

[Basic magic: Seir’s black wind]

[Mana consumption: 1

[Basic magic consumption: 5]

[Proficiency level: 1%] [

Summons the black wind that the demon Seir handled.]

I didn’t have a sense of whether I should use it as a tool, but it seemed that I could handle it the way I wanted.

It could blow the wind in the form of a spear or use it as a defense.

Or, it was possible to make it like a storm and blow away all the projectiles.

Although not very powerful, it was a versatile skill that could be used in a variety of ways.

‘I wonder if it can be used like a deer walking on a windy road.’

Both were wind-related skills. I don’t know how it will work because it’s a different type of skill, but if possible, it seemed quite useful.

And last skill.

It was also the skill Taesan was most looking forward to.

[Beginner magic: Marvas’ seven waves]

[Mana consumption: 5]

[Basic magic consumption: 45]

[Proficiency level: 1%]

[Summons a jet-black wave that protects the realm of the demon Marvas. The waves of deep, dark darkness that devours everything have deteriorated so much that even an insignificant barrier seems to block them.] The

most powerful black magic that Taesan has acquired so far is Mephisto’s black lightning.

It was an attack that could never be avoided by an opponent weaker than Mephisto, but there was even a stiffening effect when hit. It was a very useful skill, but instead, the consumption of mana and magic was very high.

However, jet-black waves had a higher consumption value than that.

Taesan headed to the next room with high expectations. Then, he cast his magic at the monster.

[You activated Marvas’ Seven Waves.]

At that moment, the space next to Mount Tai split apart.

Jet-black waves rushed from the cracks connected to the deep dimension.

Wow.

Waves raged through the room. As if they had an ego, they started to run towards the knights who were attacking them.

Knight

Kuung stepped on the floor as if trying to withstand the attack and slammed his sword down.

However, the wave broke apart as if mocking his attack and swallowed the knight.

The knight, swept away by the waves, disappeared, followed by a sound like teeth chewing.

card win. Cadeuk.

[350 damage to a black knight with twin swords.]

[532 damage to a black knight with twin swords.]

When the floating damage window disappeared and the waves gradually subsided and disappeared, there was nothing left there.

said the ghost tremblingly.

[Useful… but?]

“Does the wave itself have an ego?”

The monster on the 37th floor literally disappeared without any resistance. Beyond the 40th floor, even on the 50th floor, it was a level of magic that seemed capable of exerting considerable power.

[It’s a good skill, but something is a bit like that. It’s a skill that’s too directly connected to that side. The demons shouldn’t be interested.]

“Isn’t that a bad thing?”

[It’s not a good thing. Devils are

beings under the devil, but they are not so docile.]

“What are those demons doing?”

Hormone magic was all related to demons. However, Taesan did not know the difference between demons and devils.

the ghost explained.

[They are similar to the old gods.]

Taesan frowned.

“Are they similar to the old gods?” [

You know that the power of the ancient gods is immutable and infinite from birth, right?

Of course, limits are set.]

Taesan nodded. That statement has been heard to this day.

[Devils are also beings similar to him. It’s much weaker than the old gods, but it still has considerable power. They make a contract with the demons and lend their power to the demons with black magic.]

“Is it a contract?”

[I don’t know the details. It may be that he did not want to be sealed on the other side of the world like the old gods, so he obtained his freedom in return for lending his black magic .

Still, it’s not friendly to humans, so you’d better be careful. I don’t know who would touch you if the demon showed interest in it… but there are always crazy people.]

The ghost murmured.

Putting his words into his head, Tai San continued on his way.

Find the secret room, break through the trap, and get the reward. The reward was a sword that was nothing special, so he thought of handing it over to the shop owner.

Taesan, who continued to advance,

met the boss before long.

Kwajik.

As soon as he swung his sword, the knight’s helmet was shattered. The knight, whose breastplate was shattered by the second swing of the sword, was unable to withstand the force of the mountain and fell to the ground.

Taesan slashes the sword as it is.

The knight fell without much resistance.

[It’s easy.]

“I have to go down slowly.”

I stayed on the 30th floor

for too long because of this and that. After finishing this job, he was planning to focus on attacking the labyrinth.

[Ankle guard submerged in the abyss]

[Strength + 5

[Agility + 5]

[Defense + 45]

[Ankle guard locked in that deep, deep abyss for countless years. It contains the power of a place that humans have yet to reach.]

It was an equipment with high strength, agility, and even defense. Taesan wore it quickly.

[You used ???]

[Obtained the Aegis shield]

[Aegis shield]

[Defense + 150]

[The shield that the great adult Aegis used throughout his life]

[If you become unable to move for 1 second, all Immune to damage. This effect has a cooldown of one month.]

“Ooh?”

Taishan’s eyes shone.

Immune to all damage. It was a first-of-its-kind effect. There is a penalty of being unable to move

, but it didn’t seem to be a big problem.

It was a useful effect that could be used in various situations, so Taesan took a shield.

After clearing the 37th floor, Taesan went upstairs to meet Lilith. On the way up to the 36th floor, I didn’t forget to dispose of unnecessary equipment from the shop owner.

“When will you live?”

“It won’t take too long.”

Gradually, quite a bit of gold was gathered. I was able to buy quite a bit of equipment

now .

However, Taesan was thinking of saving as much as possible for better quality equipment.

He went to Lilith again.

“ah. What are you! Where have you been!”

She greeted Taesan with a fuss. From Lilith’s point of view, he had gone to meet the god of magic and suddenly disappeared, so it was embarrassing enough.

“I had a job.”

Taesan said calmly.

“Can I go see you again?”

“Uh uh God told me to come back and see you again.”

Taishan prayed as before.

Space splits and Taishan is summoned to the realm of the magic god.

This time, I was able to reach the space where the galaxy spreads without any obstruction.

[Did you come?]

The god of magic greeted Taesan with the same attitude as back then.

[Did we meet?]

“Yes. I was a little puzzled.”

The attention and reward the Demon God showed him.

It was simply beyond goodwill.

Gervand smiled.

[We have something we want from you. That kid must be because of that too. You’ll find out sooner or later.]

Zervand clapped his hands.

[ruler. Then you fed them shit like I wanted. Then you should be rewarded for that. What would be good…]

His gaze, which was staring at Taesan, turned to Taesan’s gauntlet.

[The gauntlet went to you?]

“Do you know?”

[These are the gloves I once used.

I miss it.]

Gloves that God himself used. That in itself wasn’t too surprising. Before that, I had seen the equipment used by those who had become gods during their mortal days.

However, it was the first time I met a god who used the equipment he wore, so I felt a little strange.

[This should be enough.]

Zervand muttered and waved his finger.

[The mysterious seal in the rough grip gauntlet has been released.]

[Rough grip gauntlet has been obtained

.]

[Rough grip gauntlet]

[Attack +5

[Magic + 30]

[Gauntlet of the existence that crushed everything] was broken and made into parts. His power still remains.]

Taesan’s eyes widened at the change.

Magic ability was a numerical value that affected the power of magic as a whole. It was a very useful effect that all magic effects increased by 1% when magic increased by 1, but it was a

value that did not have a great effect because there was little equipment to wear.

It meant that the power of magic increased by 30% by simple calculation.

[I think this is enough compensation.]

“Yes. thank you.”

[You don’t have to be thankful yet. Because

it’s not free.]

Intermediate magic.

And the ordeal to get it.

Zervand scratched his cheek.

[Actually, I was a little worried. You

seem in a hurry. Because too much is just as bad as not enough. But… I think the current you would be enough.]

Gervand laughed.

[Actually, it’s a bit lacking, but I guess that’s what the poor and wonderful child wants so much.]

“Thank you.”

Taesan recalled Lilith’s forgotten words.

“And she said to say thank you.”

[Really?]

Zervand raised an eyebrow.

[It’s a pitiful and cute child. Surprisingly few people come here just to learn magic and survive.]

He chuckled. Unlike the gods he had met so far, he was a god who seemed light.

Taesan waited for Zervand’s words to follow. Gervand’s laughter subsided.

[You drank the ordeal I gave you. It’s similar to the one the child gave you.]

The demon’s ordeal

was to rescue the demon princess from a world where demons were persecuted.

Zervand raised a finger. Countless stars passed by them.

[The world of arrogant giants. Bahulia.]

Zervand’s finger pointed to a planet.

The planet was noticeably larger than the other planets. It was a size that could easily be seen beyond ten times.

[The giants who once delved into the mysteries of magic more than anyone else have forgotten me

. So all you have to do is make them remember me. Call my name and make me recognize myself again. That’s my ordeal for you.]

[Starting a sub-quest]

[God of Magic. Zervand wants to imprint the existence of magic on the giants who have forgotten his existence.]

[Reward: Intermediate Magic]
