— Volume 14, Chapter 17,
342. 73rd Archmage. Shaian (4)
Shaian was shocked by Taesan’s words.
Mante Jack. It was a name from the past that was buried a very long time ago and has now been forgotten even by the top leaders.
Taesan, who was not even a warrior, brought up the name.
And Akisha.
‘….”no way!’
A contract with the wizard who created the labyrinth. The word passed through my mind.
‘I will die gracefully!’
It was the moment when Shaian was grinding his teeth and trying to gather mana.
Shaian realized.
Something changed in the flow of mana.
The mana that permeated Shaian and allowed him to use infinite magic was disorganized and spreading in all directions.
‘This!’
Shaian instinctively noticed. That this is a magic that Akisha created for revenge.
“It’s fine.”
Taesan nodded. The duration of the one-sided mana barrier is not very long. That’s why I’ve been saving it until now.
see the end this time Taesan gathers strength. This time it was darkness, not mana.
[You have activated the call of destruction.]
The darkness of destruction begins to color the world. In the dark it happens.
” ah.”
Shaian, who had been dazed in shock, trembled.
I could feel the ominousness that a living being would feel in that darkness.
It was the power of destruction.
Wow!
Darkness takes shape. The power that devours matter and destroys the world rushes toward Shaian.
Shaian hurriedly waved his staff. Waves of fire rippled into the darkness.
Whoops!
When forces collide, waves occur. The darkness of destruction does not dissipate, and greedily shows greed.
“crazy!”
Shaian spat out a curse. He could instinctively feel what that darkness was.
“How can you get that kind of power!”
Although it has deteriorated, the power of destruction. That, too, was the body, not a fragment. He wasn’t handling it as a tool like he was, he was using it with his own power.
Shaian gathered strength and pushed the darkness away. Darkness scattered in all directions.
«Uh W
Taesan let out a small moan and swung his sword. The darkness was trying to swallow him as well as Shaian.
The call of destruction was a force that moved independently of Mount Tai. The raging darkness was literally trying to swallow everything in the world.
He gathers his strength, covers his body, and opens his mouth.
“Back off.”
[You have activated the command of exclusion.]
When the command was activated, the darkness that tried to encroach on Mount Tai bounced off.
The power of destruction is trying to swallow the world, but there was no will to be the subject. I was able to push it out with ease.
“Ei-i-i-ik!”
[Shaian activated magic stacking.]
The power of wild magic condensed on the staff. Shaian swings his staff.
[Shaiian has activated magic liberation.]
Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gung!
Cold, light, and flame become one and are embodied in the world.
The darkness of destruction is pushed away by the waves of intense power.
Taesan put strength into the hand holding the sword.
He pushed back the raging darkness and ran toward Shaian. Shaian wildly swung his staff.
[Shyian
activated the debris of light pouring innumerably.]
Light started pouring down the entire floor. They try to pierce Mount Tai with nowhere to escape.
‘Even so!’
Shaian gnashed his teeth.
The doomsday demonstration is exhausted. The infinitely recovering mana flow was also blocked.
However, the numerous magic circles still did not disappear and were assisting him.
The Darkness of Destruction was certainly powerful, but not unstoppable.
Defeat Taishan before it consumes all mana. he can win Shaian judged that.
And it was the same with Taishan.
The one who had the upper hand in the battle so far was Shaian. It was because Tae-san had no information about Shaian, while he understood Tae-san while watching the fight with the fire spirit king.
But now, the two have been fighting for quite some time. It was enough time for Taesan to figure out about Shaian
.
Now was his time.
[You activated Marvas’ Dark Wave.]
Gather darkness and explode it. The pouring light is swallowed up by the waves of darkness and disappears.
[Shyian activates Frozen World.]
[You activate Frozen World.]
[You activate Force Amplify.]
Frozen worlds collide with each other.
Of course, what was being pushed back was the frozen world of Mount Tai. The cold air is buried in the stronger cold air and collapses.
I didn’t think I could stop it from the start. All he wanted was to slow down the frozen world even a little.
[You have activated the embers of disaster.]
The fire rages and engulfs the entire space.
Taesan immediately activated stealth. Shaian tried to activate the gaze of sympathy for all things in Taesan, which had erased its presence.
[You have activated Acceleration.]
[You have activated Skill Acceleration.]
Through the flames, Taesan appears.
Taesan was moving one step faster than Shaian’s response. Sha Ian hurriedly lowered his staff.
[Shyian activated a twist.]
The space is twisted. Taesan immediately uses his skills.
[You have activated the perfect fairy wings.]
So far, Shaian has blocked Taesan’s approach by using a twist.
As a result, Taesan was able to figure out how and under what circumstances Shaian used Torsion.
Fain!
move the wings Taishan flies in a completely different direction from Shaian.
However, Taesan was accurately flying towards Shaian.
It was to narrow the distance by grasping the twist of space and using it instead.
Shaian’s pupils dilate. His
body leaps through space. limited blink. Taesan also activates limited blink and immediately attaches himself.
“this person!”
[Shai An activated the frozen world.]
[Shai An activated the forced tuning of the magic.]
Cold wrapped around Shaian’s body.
Defense of the frozen world. Since it is an offensive magic, it cannot be pierced by absolute judgment.
But that didn’t mean absolute defense.
As they clashed swords once, they were finished figuring out what level of defense they were.
[You have activated Naberius’ Golden Sword.]
[You have activated Amon’s jet-black wedge.]
[You have activated Sabnak’s jet-black thread.
] explode all at once
Koo Goo Goo!
“Gagging!”
The ice shield is shattered. Taesan also received damage from Savnak’s thread, but ignored it and moved forward.
Nothing stood in the way of Taishan and Shaian anymore.
Taesan thrust his sword into it.
[You activated Transformation.]
[You activated Addition.]
[You activated Repentant’s Distorted Ring of Distortion.] [
Resets the cooldown of Fighting Spirit.]
[You activate Fighting Spirit’s Ring. You activated the blade.]
[You activated Absolute Judgment.]
Kwajik.
The sword pierced Shaian’s chest.
[112323 damage to Shaian.]
“Cheer!”
Shaian vomits blood. His face quickly turns white.
He grabbed Taesan’s arm with a snap.
“Come with me!”
[Shyian’s HP has decreased to 0.]
[The final fire has been activated.]
Flames engulf the mountain.
Shaian smirks. But soon his eyes widen.
[Your resistance has been activated.]
[The lethal attack is nullified.]
[All damage becomes 0 for 1 second.]
Taesan draws his sword. Shaian is in a state of dying and possesses a false laugh.
“Ha ha ha… Did he leave it until the end…
It was a battle that started with him having a one-sided advantage.
He knows everything about Taishan, but Taishan knows nothing about him. There was no doubt that he brought out numerous numbers and perfectly pressed Taesan
.
However, from the middle he started to be attacked.
The trump card was completely blocked, and even the last self-destruction was blocked by Taesan’s skill of holding out as if he had predicted it.
It was a complete and inexcusable defeat.
“…Damn Akisha. You are hindering me until the very end.”
He groans and closes his eyes.
“Is this the end of the traitor?”
With those words, his soul begins to leave his body.
[Your level has risen.]

[Your spirit level has been activated. Intermediate magic [Torsion] was obtained.]
[You grasped numerous possibilities, calculated and judged, and arrived at the correct answer.] [
You obtained the special always-on skill [Quick Judgment].]
The reward window announcing the perfect end to the battle appeared in bursts. Taesan drew his sword.
“It wasn’t easy.”
To be honest, I didn’t think it would be that difficult.
It was because he had defeated the shaman and the fire spirit king, and Taesan had become much stronger than before.
But no.
So far, Taesan’s opponent
showed a big gap because he couldn’t respond to his skills.
On the other hand, Shaian understood perfectly and tried to attack him.
He obviously had the power to kill Taishan.
It was a battle in which he realized once again that his strength was to induce the opponent’s vigilance due to his unique skills.
But in the end, he was the one who won. The ghost opened its mouth.
[You’ve come this far. Like Shaian said, the rest of them
must have a headache now.]
Shaian perfectly grasped Mount Tai, prepared Daewoong, expanded the territory, and designed the magic circle. It was much stronger than when fighting normally.
Even so, being defeated was equivalent to saying to the leadership that there was almost no chance of winning.
[They’ll take care of it,]
muttered the ghost. Even though it was his wish, it was a voice that didn’t seem to be interested in it anymore. Come to think of it, the ghost
didn’t mention even though he knew that Shaian was Mantejak.
It meant that to him now, leadership was only worth that much.
Either way, Taishan won.
Then it was time to check the reward.
The space begins to split. As the quest is completed, the target appears.
What appeared was not a rotten skeleton.
He was a very handsome middle-aged man with white hair.
He descended into the labyrinth with a gorgeous golden embroidered robe and a slickly decorated staff.
[…the time has come.]
The skeleton who gave the quest to defeat Mantejak. It was Akisha.
He looked at Shaian’s corpse and smiled.
[Mantejak. In the end, it ended like this. The time of the labyrinth would be close to infinity. You also had the talent to reach the realm after a long time, but because of that ugly and distorted inferiority complex, we
both ended up like this.] After
muttering for a while, he fell silent.
[I wanted to examine it one last time, but… Wasn’t it allowed that far? what. I was satisfied that way. Thank you.]
Akishia spins her staff.
Robes sway with his movements.
[Then, since you made my wish come true, I should give you an appropriate reward.]
Like a ghost,
Akisha’s quest for revenge against the leadership is over.
What Akisha promised was the greatest and most outstanding magic he possessed, and the magical equipment he used.
Along with the light, power began to descend on Taesan.
Level up with skill
