I Became the Only Non-mage in the Academy

The stature of a transcendent being was different from others.

Some might evaluate it as merely a stage, but from that point, the available Nyeom and the laws they could twist were fundamentally different.

It was a god that had appeared in this world, a solitary and complete existence.

It was an existence that could effortlessly destroy a nation and a catastrophe that even beings of lower stature could not dare to stop.

The Great Evil.

Was the pinnacle of beings known as Mine. Called the Demon Kings, they were beings that even transcendent beings could not subjugate.

“It’s boring.”

The villainess who destroyed the Silver Kingdom said that.

That was her impression of Seong Han-byul’s powerful strike.

“Those who possess a superficial sense of justice are really amusing. Even though they should be extra cautious, their anger engulfs their minds and excites them.”

Her silver eyes shimmered wickedly.

I was spreading the Energy of Defying Heaven around. When facing Hwanak and Daji, the first thing to be cautious of was not Daji.

‘Comrades.’

The silver energy possessed by Daji, the power of delusion, captivated everything around it. It makes family and lovers show hostility and kill each other, and friends betray one another.

Therefore, when killing Daji, you must not bring too many people. It should be composed of those who can resist her power.

It’s difficult to even set that standard at the highest level,

‘This party can do it.’

They all possessed the highest level of power.

With Ershil harboring a transcendent, armed with three special stats and all sorts of talents and skills, Kim Seo-hyun with the power of a thousand years of martial veins and the magic of starlight, and Seong Han-byul, who was wrapped in talents such as 「Infinite Goblet (S)」 and 「Book of Law (S)」, possessed Ex-level talents.

“You won’t be much fun. Even if you die.”

Daji reached out. It was a simple movement, but the power it contained was not light. An intangible force wrapped around her hand. The silver light flickered.

Bang!

My body reacted first. I leaped, pushing off the ground, my body bent low.

“Danger!!”

Kim Seo-hyun shouted from behind.

I extended my arm. The pitch-black Energy of Defying Heaven wrapped around my arm. Dragon scales emerged simultaneously as I sent a single wish to Seo Ga-yeon.

‘Don’t use it yet.’

I imbued it with a powerful will. Seo Ga-yeon and I shared our resolve. With such intense resolve, she wouldn’t hastily use her power.

Seo Ga-yeon’s power must remain hidden for now.

Her power had to be the most potent dagger. The Great Evil was not an easy opponent. Even if we poured everything out, the chances of winning were not high. Thus, buying time fell on me, Kim Seo-hyun, and Seong Han-byul.

“Hmm, an intriguing power you’re using.”

Boom!

The intangible force and my power collided. I blocked Daji’s force that was shot playfully with the dragon scales.

‘Is this all?’

I frowned. It took a considerable amount of strength to block the playfully used force.

“Oh, I see. You’re the ones killing the lower beings? They say the black power is an impure force, interesting.”

Daji smiled wickedly.

I ignored her words and focused. She was not an opponent to face while hiding power.

Daji’s eyes shone wickedly. The intense silver energy engulfed the surroundings. It was the power of delusion she possessed.

“Huh?”

But they were blocked by my Energy of Defying Heaven. A small domain created right before fighting Daji blocked her delusion. Daji’s eyes narrowed. But, in reality, it’s not a good situation.

‘The range is limited…….’

The moment I exceeded a certain range, the delusion would engulf the party members. It was dangerous. Even though they possessed the ability to escape Daji’s delusion, even a moment of delusion could lead to fatal injuries.

“Do you think you can block my delusion with that much power? You must be confident to come in here. I want more.”

Daji licked her lips with her tongue.

Woosh!

Black flames wrapped around the surroundings. The 「Black Flame Radiance(?)」 swirled. Unlike before, I had to exert my power from the beginning.

“An interesting power indeed. A power that ignores all talents. I see why the lower beings must be killed.”

Daji revealed her power.

Silver light enveloped her.

At the same time, ears sprouted above her head, along with nine tails. Each held immense power.

‘Each tail is equivalent to one parasitic Kalia.’

Silver energy surged.

The surrounding space distorted. It was evidence that it was eroding space as well.

‘It’s really tough.’

Silver Kingdom.

The culprit that destroyed the country in China. However, her history in this game was different.

Just as Hitler of the Nazi Empire offered human sacrifices to the Black Sun, she manipulated King Zhou from behind, offering human sacrifices to all sorts of extraterrestrial beings, achieving her status.

She sacrificed millions of humans and continued to do so throughout history, eventually becoming one of the pillars of the Great Evil.

Catching my breath, I thought of Daji.

‘Fortunately, I know Daji’s patterns.’

Before coming here, I had taught the party members about Daji’s patterns.

The thing to be most cautious of was Daji’s delusion.

There was a reason Daji, among the Great Evil, received the title of illusion.

Boom!

The silver tail shot towards me. The immense silver energy surged. At the same time, Kim Seo-hyun, standing beside me, raised her sword.

Woosh!

White energy enveloped her sword. The Sword of Wrath, Gram. It seemed Kim Seo-hyun had successfully fully bloomed, as golden patterns were engraved on the white blade.

“Oh, you have quite an interesting power too?”

White energy and light energy stayed on her sword.

Thump.

A faint dragon shape soared. The Sword of Wrath, Gram.

Its legend corresponded to a dragon slayer. A dragon slayer did not only attack dragons. Dragons, in a broad category, belong to the fantasy race, and so does Daji.

The intangible energy of the Sword of Wrath, Gram, brushed past me for a moment.

It reacted to the dragon power I possessed.

‘It was good to inform them in advance.’

However, it passed by.

Kim Seo-hyun controlled it desperately to direct it towards Daji.

Then Kim Seo-hyun swung her sword.

Crash!

Kim Seo-hyun and Daji’s tail collided. The space began to distort as if it was crushed. Kim Seo-hyun was pushed back. However, Daji’s tail momentarily paused. It lost its function temporarily due to the power Kim Seo-hyun possessed.

I stood right beside her and raised the Black Heavenly Demon Sword. 「Black Flame Radiance(?)」 spewed black flames. 「Surtr’s Might (S)」 infused me with power. I used 「Duplicated Will (S)」.

My mind split into two. I maintained the sword energy in the Black Heavenly Demon Sword. On the other side, I twisted Nyeom. The laws of the world distorted as golden lightning infused the black flame.

“Huh…? That, that is?”

“It’s indeed the same person.”

“Oh?”

Kim Seo-hyun, Ershil, and Daji reacted one after another.

Golden lightning, Annihilation of Heaven. The lightning pulled from the mental world mixed with the black flame.

Crash!

The tail collided. But the reaction was different from before. Daji frowned and employed other tails.

“Pretty ones do live up to their looks. Quite fierce.”

“Is it just fierceness?”

Speaking, I quickly leaped. Using the secret of 「Phantom Flame Step (S)」, I jumped close to Daji. I used 「Yellow Root Hand (S)」. Golden light stayed on my hand. I reached into the subspace and pulled out the Truth of Dreams. I threw the daggers tinged with pink energy.

“Tricks!!”

Daji frowned and swung her tail, bouncing the Truth of Dreams away. Just a moment. I split a second into several parts. I imbued the Black Heavenly Demon Sword with the mystery of the Black Mirror. The sword vibrated with a hum.

I swung it with all my might.

Crack!

It was blocked in front of Daji. There was an intangible barrier. It was the four-worlds barrier Daji boasted of. However, with this one attack, all barriers except the winter one were blown away.

“What!”

Daji swung her tail in astonishment. Evading was impossible. The secret of delusion that distorted space. Her delusion deceived space. By distorting space, Daji’s swinging tail could use nearly fatal power.

Dragon Scales.

The special stat Dragon reacted. Black Flame Radiance spewed the energy of defying heaven, and black flames flickered on my arm. Creak!! The sound of scraping metal echoed around. My arm bounced back from the recoil. I controlled my body with Black God Martial Arts and swung the sword again.

Boom!!

The black mirror, mixed with Annihilation of Heaven and black flames, struck Daji’s tail.

The black mirror, intertwined with black flames and Annihilation of Heaven, struck with unimaginable destructive power. One tail sunk deeply. That was it for one tail. At the same time, I released the Black Wings.

Whoosh.

The single wing sprouting from my shoulder began to split. From three branches to six, and from six to twelve. The black flames turned into lines, slashing around. Daji clenched her teeth and swung her arm. The delusion’s energy shone dazzlingly. She intensified it because it was hard to counter my power.

Compressing the wings again. The twelve-branched lines changed to three. Cutting off the tail with the Black Heavenly Demon Sword, I reached into the subspace and pulled out the Autumn Sword.

The Winter Sword emitted the dark energy of winter. The Spring Sword brought death to the opponent with excessive life force. Both have dark attributes, and if infused into the demonic form of Daji, it would only empower her, making it hard to inflict damage.

Woosh!

Golden magic power stayed on the Autumn Sword. The immense magic power began to engulf the crimson blade and release enormous energy. While cutting Daji’s tail,

‘Tsk.’

I aimed for her head. But Daji dodged it as expected.

‘Indeed, she doesn’t die easily.’

I looked at Daji. Her expression was different from before. She judged me clearly as a dangerous being, not just a lower one.

“What a bothersome power. I see why the lower beings are wary of you. You ignore the barrier of a higher-level opponent. Whatever it may be… you are like a nemesis to everything.”

The silver energy intensified.

I watched her with tension. A different level of power enveloped her. The silver energy swirled and transformed into a gigantic form.

-Growl.

A nine-tailed fox appeared. The power felt stronger. At least twice as much as in her human form. Cold sweat ran down my back.

It was Phase 2.
