Episode 224. If you need clarification, (2)
Rank 63.
Demon King Andras.
The owl-headed demon opened its beak.
“I am a hybrid of the demon realm.”
A definite insult.
However, Andras’ reaction was different from his usual appearance.
Unbecoming of a destroyer, he just looks at the object in front of him with interest.
It has to be.
Because what he faced was the seven deadly sins of gluttony.
Appetite waned.
“He who calls himself the Demon King.”
“!”
It wasn’t Andras who was surprised.
The demon corps commanders under Andras were startled.
It’s not enough insult to be a mongrel of the devil realm, so to insult the throne.
Even if it’s a gigantic thing, isn’t it too much?
But Andras was not angry this time either.
just said it bluntly.
“That is indeed an accurate statement.”
“…!!!”
Do you admit such nonsense?
The demon corps commanders look confused.
On the contrary, the corners of his mouth turned toward the sky.
“Did you know the subject? you are a mongrel It means that he was not born of evil like me and my foolish brothers, nor was he born with enormous power like the demon kings of the Ten Thrones.”
Andras was silent.
‘As expected, a gigantic evil is a gigantic evil.’
After Akkshan’s resurrection.
Andras felt his limitations keenly.
Now that the Arcana continent has been driven to the brink of extinction.
The Demon Lords, including himself, were unable to do anything about the last survivor of Akkshan. In the meantime, food cravings came to him.
“But I will tell you how to overcome the mongrel blood.”
With the most enticing offer.
gluttony.
Like he said himself, he’s evil.
It was evil itself, born of evil.
Even if you can see through the inner thoughts of other demon lords to some extent.
It was not easy to see through that pure evil.
Andras asked.
“Do you think I will trust you?”
Appetite laughed.
“You are free to believe. But I bet you won’t lose anything by listening. It’s like the blood of a lowly devil. If you swallow a deeper evil, you will be able to overcome it.”
“…a deep evil.”
Even if the thinness and thickness of the flowing blood are different.
Because the blood of the same demon flowed, I was able to understand what he was saying.
Aren’t they the ones who gain strength from negative energy?
Andras’s beak opened.
“It’s a funny story, you evil.”
“Is it funny?”
“I have been killing and killing everything on this continent. He built mountains of corpses and rivers of blood. Those who resisted were torn to shreds and thrown as feed for animals, and those who survived miserably were trampled and killed.”
“Oh my.”
“Are there any evil deeds that I haven’t done?”
The glutton laughed again.
“Of course.”
“What is it?”
“Haven’t you heard of it yet?”
“…haven’t you heard of it?”
“The ‘past’.”
The moment when even the smirking gluttony mentioned the ‘past’.
His face changed.
Andras could sense it.
really.
to that ‘past’.
Something unusual must be buried.
So said.
“I guess that’s why the past came to me.”
“right. I plan to use you as bait to reveal the past.”
“Bait.”
“It means that I will throw you away to reveal the past. If you can face the past and survive… maybe you’ll be reborn as a true demon lord. You know, isn’t there a vacancy?”
It must be referring to the vacant seat of Gamigin.
“Do you think I would accept such an offer?”
Appetite shrugged.
“Do you know why hybrids are hybrids?”
“?”
“It’s a mongrel because it’s messy and overflowing.”
It was pure evil.
You know the devil’s temper all too well.
It feels like playing in the palm of his hand.
But it was also an offer you couldn’t refuse.
Andras quickly replied.
“I will accept the offer.”
“Because it’s an owl, so a bird’s head is a bird’s head.”
“So, what is the past that I must reveal?”
If it’s such a great past.
I thought it must have been a complicated story.
But it wasn’t.
Because gluttony only spat out ‘one word’.
“Cloudy. That is enough.”
“…?”
“Because that one word will shake the world.”

Crystal Hall.
Like the space of the magic tower, the structure is very fantasy.
From the outside, it looked like a simple ornate circular space.
It means that there is a special space on the other side connected by the door.
waiting space.
Simply put, it is a waiting room for the next presenter.
Of course, if it was an ordinary waiting room.
“Not bad.”
This kind of reaction would not have come out of Grandfell’s mouth.
Because it was a special structure, I wouldn’t have made a fuss about it.
looking down at your feet.
A panoramic view of the dazzling Crystal Hall.
It was obviously the waiting room that I entered through the door attached to the Crystal Hall.
I was watching the Crystal Hall from the ceiling!
‘I should have just admired it purely.’
If this is an occupational disease, it must be an occupational disease.
“It’s not hallucination magic.”
The process of search interference manifestations dug into my head.
“But I am more than used to it.”
You’ll just have to get used to it.
It was the magic of an interference process similar to that of a projector.
Speaking in Arcana terms… I
guess you could say it’s the Mage’s version [Mystic Eye’s Spyglass].
‘It’s only valid in the Crystal Hall, though.’
The name is not the Crystal Hall for nothing.
A space built with ‘Magic Crystal’, one of the most precious among the various types of Mana Stones. It must be that the magic crystals of all directions amplify the magic power, and such a luxurious magic expression is possible.
‘By the way…’
The order was slowly approaching.
Wasn’t it me looking down at the crystal hall from above?
Thanks to that, the hall full of anticipation seemed to touch my skin.
So you were nervous?
can it be
Wouldn’t you know if you’re enjoying it rather shamelessly!
[Reversal Magic]
I realized once again while preparing the announcement to announce the founding of a new school. The fact that Grandfell’s iron skin was so thick that it was difficult to predict.
“I believe that you will be able to understand.”
The meaning of that word was clear.
even if you don’t understand
It’s not my fault.
It’s your fault for not understanding.
‘You’re just full of pride, our Grand Fell…!’
I looked down at the crystal hall again.
Seeing the wizards who are looking forward to seeing Granfell’s score.
You can’t be comfortable when you try to be comfortable.
‘It won’t be long before that anticipation turns into fear.’
Today, in what other words and actions.
What kind of upheaval will it bring to the Mage Tower?
Even I can’t guess.
But I’ll try my best as far as I can.
In that sense, I packed it hard.
make it look as plausible as possible.
‘Actually…’
This was another aptitude.
Why pack something that’s nothing special.
Isn’t that Grandfel’s specialty?
Physical training that is no different from labor?
A sublime challenge to challenge the limits.
Tea bag green tea?
The most perfect car in the world.
Simple web surfing?
This is also a quest for oddities.
‘…Seeing them lined up, it’s very embarrassing.’
Let’s consider ourselves lucky.
Thanks to this packaging skill.
One worry about not being able to fill the presentation time was alleviated.
Clap clap clap—
the sound of applause is heard.
After the announcement of the Senior Curtain Level in Ice Magic, finally.
That my turn had to come.
stand proudly.
Another ─
I’m always in the crystal hall.
went towards the pulpit.
Of course, the jacket of the dawn is slung over the shoulder as always.
Normally, this outfit would have appealed to shame, but…
‘I can’t afford to pay attention to that.’
In my head right now, an announcement of reversal magic.
I had no choice but to think that I had to finish successfully.
First, I looked around the Crystal Hall once.
From Yugweed to Bangrit.
All senior wizards from the circle attended.
‘…stretching is disgusting.’
As soon as
I appear, I can see Topju stretching her cat body.
Since everyone is gathered, there will be no procrastination.
I went straight to the point.
Gooooh—
As he raised his mana, the mana crystal that decorated the crystal hall reacted and shimmered. The magic power that penetrated the magic crystal is scattered in the air like a huge drawing paper.
‘Looking at it now, it looks like a system window.’
Soon, particles of magical power carve letters in the air.
You don’t even have to lift a finger.
It is enough just to repeat the typeface in your head.
Words that floated in the air.
[Reversal magic]
A muffled sound came from everywhere.
Although our Grandfel is a bit picky, it’s not eccentric.
I’m not a character-breaker who threatens to make a fuss.
“…reversal magic? What is it?”
The players, of course.
“Reversal magic… Do you know anything, Ms. Klee?!”
“yes? Why did you do that to me…?”
skilled mage.
“Senior Bangrit Bae, do you know what it is?”
“no. I’m hearing this for the first time too…!”
“Why don’t you just focus on your silence, Mr. Bensh William.”
“Huh.”
All senior wizards, including Matisse and Banshee.
“I never thought of this.”
Even the elder wizard Yugweed.
It’s a sight that not everyone can easily guess.
This is an expected reaction.
What do you currently know about reverse magic in the Crystal Hall?
It was just me and Marcelo, that smirking cat.
I opened my mouth.
“I am the creator of reverse magic.”
Direct purchase from the first word.
It was a word I threw, but I wonder if there is such an honest fastball. However, the same words are different depending on who utters them and how.
In the pouring concentration, I continued.
“Reversal magic. The principle is really simple. expression of exploratory interference. It’s just a list of magical structures in reverse order. Yes. The target of reversal magic is magic that has already been manifested, and reverses the interference process to reverse the original state of interference.”
Instead of diminishing, the buzz grows louder.
“…I think Chief Lee speaks very easily.”
“Is such a manifestation really possible?”
“No, that’s not a matter of magic expression!”
Yeah, it’s not a matter of expression.
While packing and gilding plausibly.
I also came to realize
‘How ignorant the level of Grand Fell’s talent is.’
As the creator of reverse magic, I will affirm.
No matter how kindly I explained the reverse magic, even if someone understood its structure thanks to me. There would be no one who could manifest reverse magic in actual combat.
In short.
Reversal magic is magic only for Grandfel.
Knowing that fact, I said it calmly.
“I will not hope that you will manifest.”
Somehow the tone seems to be intoxicating, but it’s sincere.
“It is enough for you to understand.”
even if you said that
The mood was not easily calmed down.
As far as I know, it is the law to see.
The more you are familiar with magical knowledge.
Because you will be shocked by the reverse magic.
‘It’s also the reason why Grandfell became generous.’
Grandfell’s benevolence sometimes manifests itself in strange directions. There was no way that our benevolent Grand Fel would turn a blind eye to the audience who were in shock and fear from the introduction.
that I have declared
“Nevertheless, don’t worry.”
“…?”
“Until you understand the reverse magic.”
“…!”
“Because the regular conference won’t end.”
wait for a sec.
A class that doesn’t end until you understand…?
Do you really think it’s for the audience, Grandfel?
suddenly realize
Grand Fel, you should never do a job teaching someone.
Even the National Professors Association is astonished.
You made a terrible declaration, now!
‘More than that.’
What do I…?
let’s fucking sell
I barely avoided the death penalty, and death from overwork was waiting for me.
But it was an illusion.
A voice suddenly heard.
“…what is this?”
Then, the sound of the smartphone vibrating in the crystal hall——
because I saw it as much as I knew it.
The players couldn’t focus on my explanation of the reverse magic.
Because you couldn’t understand what I was talking about.
‘Keep what you say. I.’
Because you said you understand.
I can understand just checking smartphone notifications during conferences.
However, the conversation I heard was unusual.
“Is it an emergency update?”
“…Demon King? Suddenly?!”
“No, wait. It’s not a rift, it’s an area addition?”
Urgent update.
Devil.
Added non-rift areas.
Wasn’t it just that the vibrations went off all at once?
Until there though.
An accident could follow.
What kind of tribe are demons?
Resurrection of Akshan.
I didn’t expect Gamigin Church’s teeth to last forever.
But in the words that followed, I realized.
It’s a bummer to avoid shame…!
“I heard the demon king is looking for someone?”
“Looking for it? player? Or an Arcana?”
“Wait a minute…”
One word that pierced my eardrums.
“Cloudy! I said Cloudy!”
My mind went blank.
Big euula ow oh wow?!
My name…
no, why is that name coming from there!!
