Chapter 397

– Pajjik!

fast.

I’ve always heard stories like that.

By the time the cast was over, the opponent’s muscles were already stiff. The organs were burning. After suffering a heart attack. It was that fast. It was literally as fast as lightning.

That was Needlen’s lightning.

The only thing Scarlett was afraid of was Needlen’s lightning, which everyone was afraid of. It was Needlen’s lightning that turned the pitiful father who could not even read the names of his offspring into the father of a viscount. A commoner orphan who had nothing was elevated to the division commander of the strongest army on this continent.

That was Needlen’s lightning.

however.

It’s slow.

“What… such unfamiliar words.”

– Pajijik, pajik, pajik!

“…Are you doing this, Prince?”

– Shhh!

– Quaaaaaaaa!

Calian’s sword struck down.

The gray sword plunged in with a horrifying cry. Not the human body, not the bones and muscles. It was deeply embedded in the extremely hard and strong earth.

At the same time as Calian launched his body, Needlen, who had prepared for teleportation and pulled out just in time, stretched out his arms in a completely different direction. Lightning bolts of light, like a deep abyss, pierced into Calian as he pulled out the sword stuck in the empty floor where his target had disappeared.

There is a roar.

Dust rises.

Calian turned his back on the sky that was finally brightening. A continuous spark erupted from Calian’s shield containing that faint light.

– Pajijik pajik!

– Kwaang kwaang kwaaang!

Two, three, four times, the lightning continued to spread out as if pouring down towards Kalian. It wasn’t powerful enough to threaten life, but it contained enough power to block Calian’s steps.

– Kwaaaaang!

The power of the lightning that had been blocking Kalian’s vision exploded. The ground is dented and a strong wind blows.

The moment the lightning subsided, four knights rushed towards Calian, who was about to leap. Another knight runs over and blocks Calian’s path.

– Kaaang kang kaaaaang!

The movements of the gathered people are like those of one person.

If you point your sword at an empty space, it will inevitably come out from somewhere else. If you swing your sword at an invisible speed, several layers of shields surround the knights. The knights’ swords stabbing from all directions block Calian’s arms and trap his feet.

– Saaaa…….

The wind is blowing.

Calian took a step. I stretched out my arms.

The Wind Blows.

It seems like a butterfly dance. It seems like flower petals fluttering in the evening. It seems like Yunseul is full of stars. The long hair tied up high paints a creepy picture in the middle of the fight. It does not even leave a shadow and follows as the footsteps of the person moving.

– Hwiik!

– Ka-gang-ka-ga-ga-gang!

The one standing in front dodged Calian’s sword. And then he bowed down. Another guy’s sword nearby aims at Calian’s hand holding the sword.

-Chaeng!

Calian raised the tip of the handle to deflect the man’s sword and swung his own sword again. The long sword Auror cut off the swords of the two knights, leaving deep wounds on their upper bodies one by one. At the same time, he twisted his waist to avoid the sword coming from behind, and then moved his arms in the direction the sword was moving. The tip of the sword pierced through several layers of shields, lightly pressed against the knight’s uvula beyond, and fell.

Grumbling.

Red blood flowed from the skin that was touched by the sharply forged energy of the Auror. The driver who was judged as ‘outclassed’ lowered his body and escaped without delay. The person standing right behind the driver immediately takes his place.

– Taaat!

That momentary gap when the camp is being reorganized.

Calian, who fully understood the method and sequence after three clashes, twisted his body. He swung his sword straight away without missing the empty space created by the knight’s exit.

The three knights who quickly blocked Calian’s path suddenly had long stab wounds on their necks.

– Patter!

Calian, who was thinking of shaking off the blood by lightly flicking the sword in his hand, suddenly moved like a thunderbolt.

Needlen, knowing that Calian’s gaze had never left him, teleported once again. Three lightning bolts struck Kalian before the knights who tried to stop him arrived.

But that’s it.

There are four more wizards, but the only thing flying is lightning.

The knights keep attacking, but the only power sent is the shield.

Calian’s head slowly turned towards Needlen, who had retreated from a distance again. Sharp fangs reminiscent of those of a wild beast appeared again and then disappeared.

“It buys time.”

Why?

An expectant smile followed.

Needlen, who unconsciously felt goosebumps rising, rotated his magic power without hesitation. The refined mana was concentrated and an electric current was created. He fired at Kalian.

A place surrounded by knights.

A place hidden from Kalyan.

To prevent Calian from seeing what was entangled in the hands of the four wizards gathered there.

‘The head of the Wizards Association said he made a bead containing lightning in water. ‘I can’t do that.’

‘Uh… Vice Commander. The Siren Association President is a dual-attribute wizard. So it’s possible, but most wizards don’t deal with dual attributes.’

‘The blue-haired wizard uses fire magic.’

‘Vice Commander Hertz’s fire magic is not a dual attribute, but rather just a hobby. The usage circle is different, and the level of understanding of fire magic is lower than that of ice. It is not the same as dual properties.’

‘If it’s not a dual attribute, you can’t use something like that.’

‘yes. That’s right. In order to fuse the magic of two attributes, the awakening for each attribute must be the same.’

Two spheres containing the energy of fire.

Two spheres containing the energy of water.

Four spheres are created at the fingertips of the four wizards.

Needlen’s hand moves.

The knights’ swords move.

Kalian is blocked again.

Two spheres containing the energy of fire merge into one.

Two spheres containing the energy of water merge into one.

Keep moving.

– Kwasik!

– Coooooo!

Two knights were left out, holding on to his shins and thighs. Without fail, the two new knights rushed in to replace the sword that had just disappeared.

A huge sphere filled with flames floated up.

The thick water turned into a large sphere.

‘If magic of different properties is combined incorrectly, it becomes a very unstable power. Rather, it can cause great damage to the caster. That’s why it’s difficult.’

Two completely different powers are shot towards Kalian.

The eyes of the wizards who sent magical power follow the sphere. Two spheres flew right in front of Calian’s nose. Calian raised his sword to swat it away. and.

– Shoo!

– Whirr!

The spheres of flame and water merged into one.

The knights quickly retreated. The wizards’ shield surrounds them.

‘If it’s dangerous to cast two on your own, you can make one each and combine them.’

While Needlen was distracted and the knights blocked the way, the power created by the four magicians with their respective magical powers was gathered in one place. It was packed neatly into one round sphere.

Calian narrowed his eyes.

This is what wizards who originally did not know about cooperation practiced with great care. They worked so hard to manifest magic at exactly the same speed. The results were visible.

Powers collide arbitrarily. A sphere containing water and fire mixed randomly is shaking. Powers that cannot be mixed stir to mix them into one thing. But it never merges.

‘and. If the mixed forces are unstable.’

The forces that cannot accept each other collide.

This conflict is coming soon.

– Googoo googung!

‘… Isn’t it better?’

– Kwagwagwang kwaaaaang boom!

It explodes.

* * *

The drink was poured with a leisurely hand and filled into the glass.

– Rumbling….

A faint vibration was transmitted through the building.

Thanks to this, gentle ripples appear in the golden drink.

“… The vibrations are transmitted all the way to here.”

“It’s okay. No one comes near the forest and the echo won’t go beyond. So you don’t have to worry.”

“I’m not worried about other people noticing.”

The person who was looking down at his drink pointed to the black smoke rising in the distance and said.

“The explosions are continuing, aren’t they?”

“The sound of the explosion won’t escape, so why worry so much? If a fire broke out in the palace forest for a while during the night, I wouldn’t be suspicious.”

“Lord Manasil. I mean.”

“Learning sword skills from the first sword on the continent. Learning magic from the only 8th circle wizard on the continent. Of course, I am neglecting teaching magic a lot. Anyway, I don’t think a prince who has two good teachers would flinch from an explosion like that. Is it you?”

Alan, who said this, still lifted his glass with a leisurely movement.

“It may be that you temporarily gain more muscles, but isn’t this a fake body that hasn’t been trained in the slightest? If you force yourself to use your strength, you will eventually reach your limit. So, I can’t help but be worried.”

“I’m sure you’ll finish it before that happens.”

“There were days when Your Majesty climbed the spire. When the memory of that day came to mind, you couldn’t do anything, so you went to the spire and looked at the castle gate endlessly. It’s to the point where Your Highness, who only encounters it in dreams, does that.”

Teilan’s finger pointed in the direction of the forest.

“Do you really think it will be okay?”

“I really think it’ll be okay.”

Alan even smiled carefreely, without the slightest worry.

Tailan, who believed that Alan’s vision was broader than others, eventually nodded along. And, trying to put my worries aside, I took a gulp of the Himolica that Alan had poured for me.

Tailan looked at the forest for a while and sighed deeply. After that, he started talking about another topic, as if trying to force away his interest in the forest.

“If you neglect to teach magic… then the prince mainly uses a sword, not magic, then?”

“Have you never seen the prince’s sword?”

“Perhaps he is worried that I might be affected. He has never used a proper sword in front of me. I have mainly seen him use magic.”

Alan shook his head and made a proud face.

“Is there a better sword than that? I’m a magician, so I’ve never really seen your sword. If you see our prince’s sword, you’ll probably be quite surprised.”

Teilan chuckled at the boast of being a student in front of the teacher who taught him that sword.

“A sword as light as a feather is so sharp… Moreover, he uses it without making a single sound like a breath or a step. The prince’s sword is literally like light, so I am often surprised. As I watch, time stops. “It’s to the point where I’m even deluded into thinking it might be something.”

“Are you saying it’s so light and fast that it doesn’t make a sound? That’s not just an exaggerated rumor; do you actually use a sword like that?”

“There are not many rumors. How can I put it into words and convey it? Let’s meet face to face sometime.”

The smile slowly disappeared from Tailan’s face after hearing Alan’s explanation. Tailan frowned slightly and looked at Alan.

“Yes Lord Manasil.”

fast.

It’s true that it’s fast.

But it is not light. Rather than being sharp, it has strength. It’s never quiet. That’s why Slayman asked that question. How can such a light sword make such a heavy noise?

But the story I just heard wasn’t like that.

Why didn’t Slayman mention Calian’s swordsmanship to Teilan? Tailan, who realized that it was not out of consideration for Tailan but because even Sleiman could not relate their sword skills to each other, quietly lowered his voice.

“… I must face it at least once.”

How is Calian using the sword he learned from him? How the pruning king changed Teilan’s sword.

What was created new and what was discarded.

I said I must see it.

* * *

A powerful explosion followed.

The wind is howling.

But then.

A knight who had been pierced through the thigh got caught on a tree root. I fall. rolled on the floor Out of shield range. Calian’s eyes caught the sight of a knight sprawling beyond the light of the explosion.

Calian ran towards where the knight fell and in the direction of the explosion. Needlen, who was standing far away, saw the scene.

Needlen hurriedly used his magic power and placed a shield in front of Calian.

Knights and wizards can get seriously injured during a fight, but they are not royalty. The injury may have been enough to force him to withdraw from the fight, but he had no intention of inflicting serious injury that could threaten his life.

“That crazy bastard… went crazy.”

Calian saw the shield being placed in front of him and used his magic power. I unfolded the shield. Aura was added to the shield. Everything was included. wrapped the article

Calian also had no intention of killing these crazy enemies again.

– Kwaang kwaaang!

– Kwagwagwagwang!

The earth is shaking.

The dust rising all over the place obscured my vision.

Since it was difficult to open her eyes, Needlen closed her eyes and released her magic. Instead of sight, I looked around with the power of mana.

There are two energies that can be felt from where Kalian was.

No one.

– Kaaang kang!

Kalyan moves.

The sound of falling down is heard one after another.

Needlen, who could not attack Calian with the surrounding energy alone, gritted his teeth. Then he opened his mouth and recited a spell. I gathered in my hands the magical power of wind that I rarely used. I shouted the starter word.

– Wheeeee!

The tree branches shake frantically.

A strong wind blows as if it will sweep away everything.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

How much time has passed like that?

Needlen finally noticed that the dust cloud and ash had disappeared, and he moved his gaze. I looked at the place where the driver was rolling on the floor with an injured thigh. I ran towards it. In fact, he put his shield on Calian and looked at the knight first.

“…… under.”

I’m fine.

He was comfortably unconscious, with no injuries other than the one where Calian had hurt him.

“Lord Zeia.”

In the quiet vacant lot, a low voice called out to Needlen. When I turned my head, I saw Calian’s face shaking off his slightly tanned bluish-silver hair.

“…Yes, prince.”

Calian, who had sent his sword to all the knights and wizards around him and knocked them all out cleanly, and had finished fixing his hair, looked at Needlen.

“Pit magic bullet cooperative attack, magic fusion that I’ve never heard of… I’m really happy to see so many things my brother has arranged.”

A low voice was addressed to Needlen.

A snow field that never melts in the great desert. The look in his eyes reminds me of the pure white wolf who was said to spend his entire life in that cold place. Cold eyes that seemed to be caked with frost looked down at Needlen. I was looking at Needlen with those eyes.

“The fight isn’t over yet. Thanks to the Lord for sending me the shield.”

There was still a hint of death at the end of that voice.

Needlen felt this and sharpened his eyes and gathered magical power. I stretched out my hand. Lightning was sent out.

– Pajijik!

The extended lightning splits the empty air.

It collapsed without being touched by anything.

“I’m going to be so worried that I’ll forget that I’m fighting. I’m going to save the royal family without taking care of my subordinates. And then I’ll forget about leading the others and run here until they all fall. What should I do then?”

Training beyond training.

A bet like war. fight.

A wizard who went to such a place for the first time. A wizard who learned how to move together with others only after entering Balkan. Until then, I was a wizard who only had to protect my family.

Someone who came up behind me whispered to Needlen, the wizard.

“… A bastard as tall as a division commander.”

– Kwasik!

Hot blood flowed from a deep wound in the same place as the knight.

* * *

The place where the explosion and wind passed.

Calian, who had been watching them all lying down for a moment, opened his mouth.

“hoarse.”

There are now thirty-seven left.

Calian took a long breath, relaxed his muscles that had started to become stiff for a moment, and moved his feet.

Where are the next guys?

Evaluating it again.

– Slut!

Something flew at Calian at breakneck speed. As if there was nothing to look at, Calian extended his sword towards the thing rushing towards his temple.

– Kaang!

The sound of something sharp being thrown away is heard.

arrow.

An arrow emitting a colorful light fell to the floor. Kalian, who confirmed that it had flown in, had a face full of anticipation.

“You’re finally here.”

Calian mumbled and turned his head to see his brother sitting on a white horse looking down at him. Plantz, who saw the crew members scattered here and there, looked at Calian without changing his expression.

Calian smiled brightly at Plantz and moved his gaze.

“…… however.”

Light purple eyes looked behind Plants. There was someone mixed among the remaining thirty-seven people.

The guy who was definitely in the treatment room on the day Kalian fell at the training site. That’s why he doesn’t have the qualifications to get involved in this fight. However, just like Calian, there was a guy who came in with a face full of anticipation. I saw him.

“Why is my takkari over there?”

Half intrigued and half curious.

The guy took a step towards Calian, who was examining him without any signs of being offended, and lowered his head.

“The last card has arrived, prince.”

Arsene Hertz.

Kalian’s crazy Takari smiled wonderfully.

“Ah. That’s good.”

Calian, who was muttering to himself, smiled.

“I really should kill him at this point.”

And I expressed my honest feelings.
