chapter 36
“Whoa… … .”
After completely crushing the remaining bones of the lich, he sighed.
The consumption of mana was relatively small, but the mental consumption was quite intense.
It was an opponent that could not be defeated if it was a straight attack method, but as I know the appearance of Oz in the game, it is just lamentable.
Why did I have to go through such a design process against an underling of a bastard who wasn’t even a [Myeongwang]?
Isn’t it too hard?
I also want to use advanced magic like Oz in the game.
“really… … .”
I have knowledge, but advanced magic is still impossible.
If the middle level magic is painting, the upper level magic is sculpting, and the highest level magic is architecture.
I, who had had a hard time just drawing intermediate-level magic formulas, couldn’t demonstrate such three-dimensional skills.
“No, it doesn’t matter if it’s not advanced magic?”
Come to think of it, there was a better way for me now.
Didn’t [Erosion Degree] break through the limit this time and increase its computational power even more?
“where… … .”
When I checked with [Contemplation], there was not much left until the place where [Myeongwang] was. It seemed that Eleanor and the others were already encountering and fighting the [Myeongwang].
I was surprised for a moment because I couldn’t feel Baekyang’s presence, but seeing that there was no body, it seems that he escaped with Tia’s magic tool.
Seeing that consumption is faster than expected, it would be better to join quickly, but… … .
“You fight much better than you think?”
Eleanor’s struggle was beyond imagination. Even if the opponent was [The Great King], I thought that Eleanor would be able to withstand it, but she was doing better than I expected.
Furthermore, although he had asked Lucia, it seemed that he could already use the power of the key to some extent.
The power of Eleanor’s key is special among keys.
Her key can stain other powers with her own color. It was to the point of absorbing even the defense magic the opponent was wearing.
As in most games, as the latter half progresses, the enemy’s defense increases vertically like the graph of a quadratic function.
Then what should I do?
The answer is defense penetration.
It’s not just the ratio of simple stats, it’s how important it is to break through the opponent’s defense.
And the power of Eleanor’s key could be said to grant 100% penetration damage.
In that respect, the production team convinced the most perfect way that Eleanor was the main character.
“At that rate, you can still watch a little longer.”
As long as I had exhausted the [Lord of Mana] stack anyway, I needed to wait for Arrieta to join.
He had intended to buy time by helping Eleanor, but changed his mind.
Judging from that appearance, Eleanor must still have room.
“Whoa… … .”
take a deep breath. It’s time to focus.
Stand in a place where you can see the [Myeongwang] and deploy the magic.
He didn’t notice me, or he didn’t even look at me.
“You will regret it.”
[Contemplation – Activate]
Concentrate your mind and activate [Contemplation] to the maximum.
I can feel the mana flowing through my body and the mana spreading around me.
The magic I will create is advanced magic, but it is not advanced magic.
Right now, I don’t have the ability to carve out such a complex sculptural compositional formula.
Then what should I do?
I already got a hint to the answer.
“I think I should go say hello to Professor Aira.”
Didn’t you see it in person not too long ago?
Perhaps the essence of magic that she poured her whole life into.
The magic that came out during the test had no great power and had many shortcomings, so it was difficult to activate it properly.
It was just a problem to explain that the magic was intertwined.
basic magic
[Magic Bullet]
But even that was enough to be a hint.
After drawing a circle with magic power, add some lines there.
The [Magic Bullet] spell has been completed, but it has not been ejected yet.
beginner magic
[Little Bom]
Draw a new circle next to it and draw numerous lines inside it.
[Little Bomb], a beginner magic consisting of circles and various lines, has been completed. Similarly, it does not eject.
intermediate magic
[Gust Piercing]
And this time, after drawing a circle, he draws a picture by drawing numerous straight lines and curves in it.
The composition of intermediate level magic, which is rather complex and can be described as fine art, has been completed.
This is basic to intermediate magic.
This is the point at which the difficulty of magic is relatively consistent.
It’s complex, but at least in terms of being flat.
beginner magic
[Static Ball]
Draw magic next to it.
Build like bricks, like building magic.
Yes, if you can’t make a finished product from scratch, you can build up small bricks and use advanced magic.
intermediate magic
[Blaze Burst]
add a circle Adding circles over and over again, I list and connect all the magic I know.
If it were another mage, my head would have exploded with the magic unfolding at the same time, but I am the [successor of the King of Sorcery].
Compared to higher-level magic, this kind of magic has low efficiency. It is an existence worthy of arrogance that can be used countless times.
It does not unravel the completed magic formulas, but captures them as a single flow.
“With this… … .”
Using that flow, he carves sawtooth on the outer shell of the complexly intertwined magics and makes them interlock.
advanced magic
[Wizard’s Gear]
“It is complete.”
Advanced magic that is excessively inefficient and has poor fuel economy.
However, if you only consider power and theory, it will not be able to compare with fairly advanced magic.
Click!
The cog wheel of the [Magic Bullet] located inside rotates once. Mana is drained and magic is ejected.
The inside of the magic formula that made up the [Magic Bullet] was erased, but because of the flow holding it back, it didn’t disappear completely.
The [Magic Bullet] hit by [Myungwang]’s morale loses its power and disappears like a deflated balloon.
“Yes, of course it wouldn’t be possible with this much power.”
It is natural not to
But this is just a prelude.
Click!
The cogs of [Magic Bullet], which had lost their formula, continue to rotate and resonate with the flow.
Every time the cog wheel rotates, the magic that disappeared is refilled, and when the wheel rotates again, the magic is ejected again.
And the rotation speed increases.
This magic, too, disappears before it even touches [Myungwang]’s body.
[Myeongwang] doesn’t even look at me.
Click!
The [Magic Bullet] cog wheel rotates one more time.
At the same time, the cog wheel of [Little Bomb], which is slightly larger than the formula of [Magic Bullet], rotates and emits magic.
Then, as the cog wheel rotates, the magic formula rises again.
[Myungwang] still doesn’t even look at me.
Click!
[Magic Bullet], [Little Bomb], [Static Ball], and [Light Impact] are deployed simultaneously and leave traces in the air.
As if [Myungwang] was annoyed, he finally looked this way.
“what… … !』
and be astonished
That’s natural.
I’ve never seen anyone besides me beat magic in such an ignorant way.
Spreading around me are innumerable magical construction techniques.
The levels were at most basic to intermediate magic, but there were a lot of them.
It was really huge.
Usually wizards who can do this will just use advanced magic.
“But I liked the ignorant method. It’s already enough to use your head and make plans on a regular basis.”
Click!
[Magic Bullet], [Little Bomb], [Static Ball], [Light Impact], [Gust Piercing], [Fire Wall], [Storm Blade], [Chain Lightning], [Water Fall], [Hale Strike] ·····.
Ignorant, but effective.
As the cogs rotated faster and faster, countless magics began to cross the sky.
Encroached upon by the fraud of the [Myeongwang], the magic melts away. And a new magic falls on it.
The speed gradually increases, and the number of spells ejected also increases moment by moment.
Mana drains like water.
The consumption of mana is more intense than when [Mana Ruler] was used.
But it’s okay.
<Undine’s Water Drop> × 82
Because there are (materials for) the potions I have collected just for this day.
While adjusting the magic, he puts <Undine’s Water Droplets> in his mouth and bites them like chewing candy.
Along with a cool refreshing feeling, the mana energy contained within is absorbed into the body and restores a small amount of mana.
And it was repeated.
The faster the magic ejection speed, the more intense the mana consumed.
I swallowed <Undine’s Water Drops> one by one and threw them into my mouth while clenching them in my fist.
It would be a very unpleasant sight to see up close, but I’m a bit distant from Eleanor and the others, so it’s okay.
So my image is still aristocratic and arrogant.
『Keugh… … .』
The morale that flowed from the gates of the <Underworld> and protected the alter ego of the [Myeongwang] could not keep up with the pace.
The magic pouring down like rain was hitting [Myungwang] little by little.
Besides, I’m not the only one here.
“Haaa!!!!!!!!!!”
Eleanor wields a greatsword imbued with the power of the key and gradually builds up damage to the [Myeongwang].
Lucia also pulls the trigger as if she can’t lose, interfering with the movement of [Pyeongwang].
“Move, daughter.”
“I am… … .”
『Did you intend to abandon the meaning of your existence like this?』
“… … I don’t want to attack Noah and his friends.”
“yes?”
Marie hasn’t moved since a while ago.
Because she was hesitant to deal with us, [Myungwang] had no choice but to be fixed in place.
If Marie had really wanted to kill us, there would have been problems, but she is still hesitating.
『Then, even though I will be using your brothers and sisters after you?』
“Ugh… … !”
In the name of the author, the father began threatening the family.
But it is an effective method.
“Even the name [Myeongwang] was just an illusion. To see you use such a naive method!”
“You bastard… … .』
Deliberately shouting loudly and provoking [Myeongwang].
The content of the provocation is not much, but my arrogant self is the product of my efforts that I have been acting for a long time.
I’d be pretty annoyed right now.
[Myeongwang] As expected, you can tell from a distance that I look down on myself considerably.
“I have to kill that kid.”
Yes, common sense would make a king angry at such a provocation.
『Daughter, wouldn’t it be better to keep in mind that your brothers and sisters are still in the <Underworld>?”
After that, you will negotiate.
“… … .”
Marie trembles as she embraces her staff.
sounds like you’re thinking
I am also her acquaintance, but the relationship was not that deep.
Except for the first meeting, most of them were only to exchange greetings when they met.
that buck
Mari, who had been standing in one spot for a long time, took the first step. That alone was enough to know what she meant.
I accepted the [Myungwang]’s proposal.
It is unavoidable.
Until now, she had been brainwashed to die if the [Myeongwang] told her to die, and she would never have accepted the suggestion itself.
From her point of view, this offer seems to be one that must be grasped.
Marie raised the staff she was holding in her arms.
“sorry… … .”
“… … .”
“After I die and fall into the <Underworld>, I don’t mind cursing and harassing me… … .”

Kwajik!
Marie’s whites are stained black, and morale flows into the staff she was holding.
Perhaps the lock that connects her to <Underworld> is that wand.
It was decided what I should aim for.
“… … Please die now.”
The lower body of the skeleton, which was the incarnation of the [Myeongwang], was born, and Marie’s figure was hidden between the ribs and disappeared.
In a way, it looks like a little big skeleton, but the fraud it harbors is absurd.
Just by standing there, the vegetation around you is dying.
“It is threatening.”
[Myungwang] started running toward me.
The morale he harbored grew stronger and it was difficult to break through even with the [Wizard’s Gear].
“by the way.”
[Myungwang] is running with terrifying momentum, but he doesn’t dare to move. Okay.
“It’s later than I thought. Hurry up, Alexios.”
bang!
The bombardment with heat like the sun crosses my side and strikes the incarnation of [Myeongwang].
With a sound like lightning striking, the huge skull’s head snapped sharply, stopping its movement for a moment.
“under! Are you dissatisfied with me being late?”
An SSR grade character with a deep relationship with me.
The [King of Fist] Alexios, who escaped the penalty, stopped the advance of Myeongwang by the [Flame Cloud Thunder Regime].
“It would be disappointing if that was the only [Fist King] ability.”
“This bastard… … ?”
Alexios, who is like a bonus item, leaves it alone and finds Arietta, who would have come with him.
She was already treating Eleanor.
Even in the eyes of Eleanor, who was being healed, the light hadn’t gone out yet.
Like the main character, she probably hasn’t given up yet.
“where… … .”
[Myeongwang] does not consider his children important.
It was because there had been no enemies capable of threatening [Myeongwang].
<Underworld> also went back to the logic of power like <Spellage>, but it is a tragedy that happened because he was too strong with the key.
That’s why, to him living an immortal life, family was just a piece of chess to be used.
However, if it was the divine technique of Arrieta, a saintess who could be said to be at odds with Chigi and Magi, it would be possible to go beyond the incarnation of the [Myeongo] and affect his main body as well.
Yes, the point of this plan is to carve a wound that cannot be easily healed in [President] Thanatos.
“I’m looking forward to seeing if you can talk about abandoning your family while being checked by other nobles in the <Underworld>.”
I’d be glad if I didn’t get stabbed by my children before then.
