Chapter 197 – Academy (36)

The fight between the serpent and the black magicians continued.

Under the guidance of the 7-star old man, they performed joint magic.

Jigsaw Jigsaw!

The black haze coalesced and became a huge dragon. It was shot at the serpent with an intense lightning sound.

-Keeek!!

The serpent stopped moving with an ear-piercing scream. I shuddered as if I had been electrocuted.

A middle-aged man’s eyes lit up. He pulled out a worm-shaped tentacle from his bosom.

‘That one?’

It was a tentacle that lingered from the weak point it had cut. As you can see, that was an important factor in controlling the serpent.

The middle-aged man threw a tentacle at the serpent.

Chew!

Of course, he blew his sword and cut it off.

“No!”

I laughed at him who was glaring at me like I was going to kill him.

‘Oh..?’

-Kieheek!!

The serpent’s eyes widened. He glared at the warlocks and spit out flames.

The poisonous smoke ignited and a firestorm raged. Even though I was away, I felt the warm heat.

“Aagh!”

The warlocks who couldn’t stand it fell to the ground one by one. It was disenchantment.

The seven-star old man wielded his staff as if in a fit of rage, and the battle intensified.

-Kroaak…

Time passed, and the power of the giant serpent was drained. Regeneration slowed down, and the momentum of the venom that had been spewing out also weakened.

It was the same with the black magicians. He vomited blood with a pale face and stumbled.

“Hmm..”

It’s about time. Both were on the verge of collapsing from exhaustion.

Moved location. The serpent and the warlocks lined up in a straight line.

I grabbed my sword and concentrated. He had enough strength because he took a good rest while chewing the elixir.

‘Four days.’

Goo Goo!

Something was added to the brilliant sword steel. As he aimed his sword, unusual magical powers raged.

The half-collapsed Black Tower trembled.

The old man with his eyes widened hurriedly shouted.

“If I kill myself, you will…!”

The useless words flowed out of one ear. I focused only on the four days.

Hard.

My shoulders stiffened from the rapidly increasing weight of the sword. He gripped the hilt of his sword tightly and lifted his spirits.

The moment when the serpent and the warlocks were captured at a glance. I squeezed my whole body strength. Imagining a sharp spear, I put it in the sword.

Kwajik!

Stepping on the advance, he extended his sword.

Sailgeomgang (射日劍罡): Gwancheon (貫天).

Whoa!

An intense flash of light shot in a straight line. He pierced the serpent and the warlocks at once.

It penetrated not only the thick pile of flesh, but also the barrier.

-Keeeee

Cooong!

The serpent sighed and collapsed. When his large body hit the ground, it shook like an earthquake.

Saah..

The hole caused by the silo grew rapidly. The heat that started at the size of a fist spread in an instant.

A serpent the size of a building burned. It turned to ashes and scattered.

“Whoa..”

My whole body was limp as if it had been soaked in water. I forcibly raised my inner strength and erased the feeling of exhaustion.

I built my senses without relaxing. I took a closer look at the warlocks behind the serpent.

Unlike serpents, they couldn’t even scream.

It was already turned to ashes and scattered. Except for one person.

“Cool.. Big..”

7 star old man. Like a mage, he was still alive. Of course it wasn’t all right.

No limbs, only the head and part of the torso. It literally saved his life.

It was a fatal wound that would kill him soon if left alone.

“Sa, save me.

He looked down at him and asked.

“Are you the vice-owner of the Black Death Tower?”
“Potion, potion…”

I felt like I was going to run out of breath right away. I sprayed a cheap potion on it. That alone made her complexion lighter.

“Hey old man. If you give me a Tower, then who is the owner of the Tower?”

It was a question I had heard since the 7-star mage was called the subtop master.

The old man’s mouth was closed. There was a glimpse of fear in his wildly quivering eyes.

“I-I don’t know.”

“Ha.. To serve someone you don’t even know who is the head of the Tower? If you don’t want to talk, just go.”

As he drew his sword, he hurriedly shouted.

“Gee, I really don’t know! I only come from time to time to bring chimeras and humans to use as sacrifices!”

As I frowned, the boy spoke hurriedly.

“No, of course it’s not without a price. He made me a 7-star from the original 6-star. That alone is worth being loyal to… Cool..!”

The old man coughed up blood. His white beard turned red. The remaining mana quickly faded.

“Yes, save me… No, save me. Heuk.. No, I will become a slave and offer my allegiance!”

The longing for life was great. To beg for the life of an opponent who was fighting to die.

“Hmm…”
“If you take me with you, it will be very useful.. Kkeok!”

Awesome!

He pretended to be troubled and cut it with a single knife. There was nothing good about being close to the insidious mage who polished the curse.

He was so resentful that he died with his eyes wide open. He looked at the corpse and gathered fire energy in his hand.

As he snapped his fingers, small sparks flew out. Just in case, he turned the corpse to ashes with the flames that were fed with exorcism.

‘I’m done with this guy.’

I examined the corpse of a serpent that had collapsed on the floor and was motionless.

It was so large that there was still more than half of it left. Judging by the speed at which it turned to ash, it seemed like it would take another minute or two.

I got closer and took a closer look.

‘This..’

I felt an unusual aura from the neck of the serpent.

I thought he was still alive, but he wasn’t.

‘Black crystal?’

The one thrown when summoning the serpent. I saw a black jewel buried between the piles of flesh.

Seeing the old man’s expression of regret, it was clear that it was precious.

If left as it is, it will be caught up in four days and turned to ashes. He swung his sword and dug through the flesh.

He hesitated while trying to pull out only the black crystal. I saw a large piece of flesh clinging to the crystal.

After thinking about it for a while, I lifted it into the air. There was a strong smell that stung my nostrils. My head was dizzy.

Tuk-tuk.

I picked up a suitable stick and poked it carefully.

The elasticity was like a water balloon. The flesh was filled with liquid. As you can see, it was poisonous.

‘Is it a poison pouch?’

It was like a source of venom that was constantly gushing out. Of course I had it in my inventory.

Looking around, I saw only the ruins of buildings soaked in poisonous air. The serpent had already turned to ashes, and nothing was alive.

I was lost in thought while looking at the desolate landscape.

The owner of the subtop was a 7-star mage. Top lord would of course have a higher level than that.

‘Eighth.’

Even though the tower collapsed, it did not come. It is difficult to come right away, or he is not interested in the Black Death Tower.

It was fortunate, but sad at the same time. Because fighting the strong is the shortcut to becoming stronger.

‘Can I win?’

It was hard to guess because I had never been with an 8-star. I ran the simulation in my head and shook my head.

‘It’s done.’

I stopped thinking about the top owner. No matter how 8 stars it is, it’s hard for a warlock to make a fuss in the city.

It was enough to be careful when going out of town in the future.

I was thinking of going back like this, but I looked around. Now that he had annihilated them, he was thinking of robbing the warehouse.

I rummaged through the wreckage for about 20 minutes.

‘Oh?’

Found a safe buried in the ground. It was a large safe, over 10 meters long on one side. It was pretty solid. Even though the building collapsed, it was still intact.

I didn’t even have to worry about how to open it.

Squeak.

He raised his sword steel and cut off the lock part.

-Whehe! Eeng!

A loud alarm went off, but the owner of the vault was long dead. Disturbing the flow of magical power soon became quiet.

Clap.

‘What’s this.’

I opened it with high expectations but was disappointed.

From mithril wands to sorcery books. It was a valuable thing to look at.

However, most of them were pickled in magi, making it difficult for him to use them.

I clicked my tongue and put it in my inventory. Even if melted down and used as a material, they were useful things.

‘Uh?’

I picked up the worn-out book and hesitated.

I couldn’t read the text on the cover. It’s not strange that there are letters you don’t know, but this is an earth with a system.

It was normal for all the letters to be interpreted.

‘Did it come from a rift?’

Carefully turned over the bookshelf. Fortunately, there was an interpretation of the black magicians.

‘Secret Flame Art?’

I skimmed through the contents quickly. In short, it was a technique to attack the opponent with mental power.

A secret technique that strikes and subdues an opponent with only the power of consciousness without magic.

‘Hmm..?’

It seemed more usable than I thought. I straightened up and took a closer look. After reading for a while, I frowned.

‘I have to give up all my magical energy to become an initiate?’

From the start, the conditions were difficult. Initiation was possible only when there was no mana accumulated in the body.

However, non-Awakeners could not learn it. It was because he needed the mental strength to use the minimum sword skill.

There was no way anyone would give up magic for an unproven technology. There was a reason it was stuck in a warehouse.

After contemplating it, he nodded his head. It was useful to him, if not to anyone else.

There might be no magic power when passing on to another reincarnation, so I made a promise at that time.

After that, they rummaged through the wreckage and found various treasures.

I got enough magic stones and unknown artifacts to fill a room.

‘This is enough.’

There must have been buried things left, but it was annoying to dig further.

Scattered sword energy containing exorcism in all directions. It was a world with various characteristics and blessings, so it was prepared.

We moved towards Seoul. I lightened my body and walked as if I was running.

There was a face I wanted to see right now. When she thought of her voluptuous figure, her mouth watered.

Hyejin Lee.

It was time to get compensation from Suho Kang’s mother.
