Chapter 78 – 78. Mandrake Doesn’t Cry (7)
I don’t think I’m overwhelmingly better than others.
My father always said.
Always work hard.
And always watch and learn from what’s around you.
Learn the logic contained in every small action, and learn the magic of those who are worse than you.
It was as he said.
My father taught me something really big.
Always look up at everything and live with a learning attitude.
In that sense, I learned many things and was humbled. I even learned with fun when I saw that Anna’s method of using magic was neater and specialized in close combat than mine, and I even learned the know-how from Anna.
Anna, who was surprised at first, wondered if she was punishing her for some reason, but since she is not an idiot, she encourages her subordinates when they achieve something and if she can learn from it, it is right for her to learn and get better. In the meantime, he receives various lessons from Anna, and as she teaches him, his abilities also improve.
My father was watching with satisfaction, and if there was a magic used by a small elementary school student, or something that came out okay after I corrected my student’s way of using magic, or something that showed great power in a completely unexpected way, he would write a report about it and organize it. Do it too.
And I used it as a way to inform my students of what had been reorganized.
Circulation of knowledge.
And the exchange of wisdom is always right.
Why am I talking about this?
That’s Groot chasing him into the grave now…
No, Alicia – Elven Guard was far from that.
Self-righteousness, arrogance, and stubbornness.
Because I was able to see how ugly and shitty a person becomes when these three things come together properly. You must have felt it keenly during the expedition that if you followed the wizard to the place he was running away from, you would be screwed. A dungeon filled with traps, magic, and booby traps everywhere.
And if you thrust your head into it without thinking, you will bleed.
I clearly told you about it, but in the end, I was so frustrated with the damn Canf bitch who led her head into Tio Gransha’s trap.
Seeing the way he said, “Fuck you even if I tell you wisdom,” I could understand why Dick said this.
-Geumtaeyang, if you don’t understand even if you speak, don’t try to win with words.
-If you mean that you can’t understand words, isn’t that an intelligence problem?
-…It’s not like that. You will know when you experience it.
…
Really.
I understand after experiencing it.
Memories of fighting without being able to use my full power because I was not heard even if I said it, come back to me.
Of course, it doesn’t really matter anymore because it was my time to give it back.
And the thought that occurred to me.
How is it that this idiot hasn’t changed at all during that time?
This is truly deplorable.
No, is this why it has been decided to be a word to use and throw away?
And even her treatment of the Elven Guard, who may one day threaten her position, her mixed race, and her seeming attempts to deal with the ‘disturbing forces’ that follow her.
From one to ten, Elvenheim is unfavorable.
She may be a fool, but she would think of using up her child in this way by eliminating a person of interest.
It wasn’t my part-time job.
Not anymore.
-Ahhhhh !!!!
Entering the tomb, Alicia’s entire body is on fire as she is still chasing me and screaming. Naturally, she was cautious since she knew that the damage she suffered would be recovered by robbing the hosts of her life force.
Nevertheless, it was quite funny to see her lose her temper while being caught in traps and improvised traps designed to make her feel dirty.
Especially the place where Alicia’s face is crawling in, twisted and writhing.
In other words, she is burning the leaves that have grown like hair on her head.
In fact, it is just like hair, so it is hair.
Okay.
It doesn’t do much damage, but it’s the perfect target to aggro and focus your attention on.
-Clarke…!!!!!! This bastard!!!!! I will kill you!!!!
And the elite troops of Elvenheim, whose consciousness is controlled by Alicia, also enter.
Well, even so, it looks like she was the first one to come in to punish me for somehow burning her own snout –
As always, what awaits Alicia is a spider web created by Nia that boasts ultra-sharp cutting power.
Couuuuut!!!
A huge arm being cut off without anyone even knowing it was cut off.
However, the more injured she gets, the more she uses her life energy extracted from her elite soldiers to heal her own body.
Restoring a severed arm in an instant… No, is it correct to call this restoration? That thing is regrowing again.
Naturally, I was using magic to block the blade of Sylphid, the Spirit King of the Twisted Wind, flying towards me along with the monster that was continuously recovering itself.
At the same time-
-There you are, Clark!!!
Kwaaaaa!!!
Kaaaaa!!!
A huge arm swinging down in this direction.
And Gawain blocks it.
It is about 10m tall and has an explosion and acceleration due to magic power, but Gawain blocks the powerful blow. Of course, where on earth did this crazy bitch sell her knowledge of elemental arts and marksmanship?
There must be a variety of attacks that can be done with that huge body.
The attacks that that bastard could make were extremely monotonous, and the only thing that was dangerous was the onslaught of the twisted spirit king, Sylphid.
The wind spirit king himself swirling inside the tomb.
The element itself was charging towards me with all its might.
Gawain is in charge of the huge Alicia and the Elven Guardians who are targeting her.
Naturally, joint tactics are basically dangerous when surrounded, and even in a state of unconsciousness, those who followed Alicia used the same joint tactics they usually used with Carnesia.
And Anna protects Gawain.
Kaaaaang!!!
“Really, it would be nice if I could just kill these bugs right away.”
Anna’s only action was to repel the Elven Guardians with her sword sheath. It seems like he wants to kill me right away, but I can’t do that.
That’s right, that’s what the deal with Carnesia was like.
-Free my men. If you do that, I will stop fighting with you right now, Geumtaeyang.
That’s why not only Gawain, but also Anna and Nia, who are listening to my instructions in real time, are not killing it.
-You can neutralize Alicia in that state and save my men, right?
Of course you can.
Naturally, the magic had already been passed on to Alicia’s body and the magic had already been passed on to the bodies of the Elven Guardians. And I had finished analyzing it all. Of course, this must be dealt with in an instant, and even if it is incapacitated, it will immediately activate again.
As he moves, he once again uses the troops under his command as sacrifices.
Neutralize that thing.
Roughly estimated neutralization time is 30 seconds.
If it is long, it is a long time, and if it is short, it is a short time.
Considering that it may take less than a second for a person to die, 30 seconds may be an eternity.
But this is an estimated time, so it could be shorter, and the key is to neutralize and destroy that bitch Groot.
To cancel a spell is to cancel it, and to neutralize it so that it cannot be resurrected all at once is also done.
-Ahahahaha!!! Gawain! I think you can stop this!!!!
Kwaaaaang!! Kwaaaaa!!!
If it were the old Gawain, he would never have been able to block that attack. However, as he personally fought the decisive battle with Cassandra, his current attack is worse than Cassandra’s. In addition, it is so simple that it is easy to see, so Gawain skillfully strikes it down with his great sword – Guillatin.
He was repelling Alicia’s attack with overwhelming skill, a technique that can only be achieved by properly knowing the point and direction of force.
“Whenever you open your mouth, you are bragging and conceited, Alicia. Look at yourself. If you knew what kind of monsters I have been dealing with, you would know that your attacks have no effect whatsoever.”
However, in the meantime, the spider’s web was cut into pieces again and fell into pieces, but as if that was what it was, it grew even more and seemed to ignore Nia’s spider web –
Nia must have been so annoyed that she adjusted the thread herself and tightened Alicia’s neck.
If it grows again even if you cut it, you can stop cutting it.
-Ugh!? These damn lines…KILL!!!! Kill the golden sun!!!!
“Why do you keep trying to kill the good Geumtaeyang? My only crime is shooting the hair removal beam?”
-You bastard!!!!
“…You’re the real devil, Geumtaeyang, saying you’re throwing a hair removal beam at an elf.”
And Carnesia, who is now next to me, hears that and looks at me with extreme disgust. Elves do not have hair loss.
It’s real.
So, we openly boasted to others that we didn’t suffer from hair loss, and especially to two lower-ranking species and one dwarf, we continued to tease them about it.
Of course, that’s why I shot it.
I want you to experience the pain of hair loss once.
“So why did you shoot?”
“…”
No, what’s pretty about a bitch who openly spread rumors and stabbed me in the first place to kill me?
“Clarke, when will the spell be completed?”
Kaaaaa!!
Carnesia is currently standing next to me and watching the completion of the technique.
Naturally, what I am waiting for now is the completion of the technique.
Who completes it?
Of course it is Tio Gransha.
Why did I throw this to her?
That’s because the Spirit King, a being who will destroy everyone if you make a mistake here, is running rampant. Apparently, it used to have the shape of a bird. This Spirit King is distorted in the same way as Alicia, the current contractor, is in that state.
It’s shattered, distorted, and the wind is going crazy.
If this spirit king starts to mess around here, it will be a full-blown disaster outside, and in the end, I am the one who has to stop this.
Of course, they threw in an already completed spell, and if you just put in the right ‘combination’, you can end the current situation.
Alicia will be neutralized, and all Elven Guardians will be freed from brainwashing and come to their senses.
That’s what I told Carnesia.
On the surface, that is.
Kwagwagwagwanggwang!!!!
A sylphid blowing up a gust of wind, shattering the inside of the tomb. It moves at high speed, looking for an opening, and the place where the silphid moves immediately becomes the wind and attacks me.
Blade of the wind.
And another blade of wind blocks that blade of wind.
It was identical to the blade of wind summoned by Sylphid, and they both annihilated as soon as they collided with each other.
Although he is said to be an insane Sylphid, the Spirit King, who has always followed Alicia’s shitty orders and cooperated in a manner that he does not like, has turned black and is distorted with a red glow, making it look like Elven Haim…
…But what are they going to do?
No, is it okay to corrupt the Spirit King like this?
“I’m asking because I don’t know. Is it okay to corrupt the Spirit King like that? Is this correct?”
“How could it be possible? I didn’t expect it to be distorted like that in the first place!”
I’m screaming.
Perhaps he is forcibly summoning and manipulating the spirits, but the Spirit King also has a sense of reason. How can you abuse a spirit that literally takes charge of one axis of nature like that?
It wasn’t a face I didn’t know, and Silphid had also helped me in many ways during the expedition at my request.
…
Write.
This needs to be resolved quickly.
Just-
Finger snap.
And with that, the threads that bind Alicia’s body begin to grow stronger.
It’s my signal.
Nia begins to shoot more and more of her webs towards this place, trapping Alicia.
-Ugh?! What, what!! Why doesn’t it stop…!?
Strangulation, and the threads prepared for that strangulation. The threads are spider webs that begin to move and wind more and more tightly, as if it was just a joke. Gradually, the spider webs chose ‘solidity’ instead of cutting, and Alicia became unable to move.
Gawain, who had just deflected Alicia’s attack, also found some time to spare.
And finally.
-Clarke, can I activate it?
“Okay. Activate it right now.”
The trigger is Alicia’s serious injury.
.
Injury and death that are strong enough to cause serious illness are triggered, and people die one at a time.
And she offers her life force and body to Alicia.
And Alicia becomes stronger.
That’s the story.
Of course, there is a way to increase its strength by forcefully sucking it, but that bitch is an idiot because she doesn’t even know how to do that.
If you were smart, you wouldn’t have been consumed in this way, and you wouldn’t have fought like this.
Therefore, the queen of Elvenheim, who cast that spell on that bitch and gave her an elixir to mutate her, must be a truly horribly cruel monster.
I could swear
I could tell that it was a trap created to force me to engage in a war of attrition, and if I dealt with him according to the rules, he was also an opponent I would really struggle with.
Of course, I have no intention of dealing with this as usual.
Why do I fight as the enemy wants?
There is no reason for that, and there is no need for that.
I couldn’t help but shout in admiration at the unthinkable act of bragging about something like that with a magic that really wasn’t that big of a deal, and doing something against the people he was supposed to protect and the tribes he was supposed to embrace until the end.
In the end, they are now using their allies as hosts and trying to kill me, and I have no intention of tolerating this anymore.
Now is the time to end this boring relationship.
