Chapter 278 – Showdown – Part 2
It’s like a huge castle wall.
It’s a one-on-one fight, like a siege.
That was the first impression I had of King Bastian.
Looking down at King Bastian from the sky, he held out his hand.
Keying!
The moment dazzling golden magic swayed, Little Boy and Fat Man appeared on your hands. Weapons are created by repeatedly recovering rapidly consumed mana by receiving sunlight.
The strongest weapon in my opinion, embodied with the magic of the sun.
The more skilled I am at manipulating magic, the higher my level of power is, and the speed and destructive power generated gradually increase.
The two cores thus created headed for King Bastian.
“Feel so good!”
Two powers flying. Sensing the ferocious power hidden within him, King Bastian smiled and spread his hands.
Wow!
A huge barrier formed between my two outstretched hands blocked my attack. Magical power maintained like a strong castle wall. As the aftermath of the magic faded, only the scratches on the wall of King Bastien’s castle indicated that my attack had occurred a little while ago.
Haha! Great, great!”
Only one scratch with two nuclei. The performance is not good compared to the magic attribute that went into it. While frowning, King Bastian burst into laughter as he opened his mouth to the point where he could see the roof of his mouth.
“Long time no see! What has left a scratch on my castle wall! Really good! Leoric Hyperion!”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
Are you proud? Not happy with the parties. While grumbling, he opened his hand again and created a nuclear weapon.
Keying!
As the sun’s magic is combined, the forms of Little Boy and Fat Man appear.
The name was given by imitating only the appearance and destructive power of a different principle, but the more you use it with this name, the more you get used to it, and the more you become proficient in it, the stronger it becomes.
An attack that could destroy even a small mountain ended with only scratches.
One thing is for sure, my attack will not be able to penetrate King Bastien’s castle walls.
What could be the cause?
“It’s this way this time!”
Cooong!
King Bastian kicked off the ground and flew up. Just from that impact, the entire capital shook as if an earthquake had come.
“Oh my god.”
Unbelievably, King Bastian began to move like a castle wall around himself.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
It is a maneuver method that spurts the air by using the bottom of the foot as a stepping stone. A crude method used by mercenaries or knights with low magical power, or by magical power holders who are not confident in flying in the air.
However, the feeling was different for different users.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
The feeling of pressure, like a huge tank charging to crush me. The speed is also fast enough to be compared to pure flight.
“In an ignorant way… !”
“Because this is comfortable! Then take it!”
Laughing at my grumbling, King Bastian raised his fist.
“No no no no!”
Go go go go go-!
A wall that moves according to your fists. The magic wall in the form of a castle wall, which had been strong until a moment ago, moved.
A form that transcends physics made of magic breaks the laws of physics around it.
“It’s not even a giant robot!”
Suddenly, he thinks of a robot wielding an oil tanker he saw in his previous life. It really feels like grabbing and swinging a tanker or a gigantic building equivalent to it. It’s impossible to block this.
Will it break if I block it?
Pod!
The moment the sun’s magic envelops the body, it disappears on the spot.
Deed Dede Dede Deuk!
A relentless blow that attacks with planes rather than dots and lines. He smiled as he watched the place he had just been there, as well as the entire surrounding area, destroyed.
The magic of stubbornness is hard. It assembles easily and does not change.
That’s why King Bastian’s castle wall is hard and not easily penetrated, and the wall itself becomes a weapon and is wielded.
It’s just not without its downsides.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
It turns into a beam of light and chases me as I disappear.
A dwarf king who gallops while stepping on the magical energy gathered in the air. Apart from that figure, the figure that moves close to the speed of light comes with a terrifying sense of pressure.
In the midst of that pressure, I look at him while flying through the sky.
It wouldn’t be a lie to say it’s more comfortable than flying.
The magical power of stubbornness, by its nature, is specialized for focusing rather than discharging.
Oh oh oh!
A magical wall that cuts through the clouds and strikes down. That’s how it looks. Priority is given to direct strikes over ranged attacks that release magical power.
Although the wall is huge, it cannot be compared to a ranged attack.
I’ll have to keep my distance first.
Right!
I snapped my fingers. Small beads of light appeared around. The small sun, in which the mana of the sun is condensed, begins to fly away with overwhelming heat.
The orbs of light scattered in the air fly towards King Bastian like a homing missile. King Bastian, grinning at the marbles, waved his hand, and the walls of the castle began to fling marbles.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
“Do you play baseball?”
Or it feels like watching a mosquito burst to death by an electric fly swatter. In any case, I widen the distance between them.
Keying-!
The magic of the sun surrounds the body and turns into light, leaving the spot immediately.
“Are you trying to play hide-and-seek?! If you run away like that, you won’t see the match forever!”
“I know!”
King Bastian, who shouted at me flying at a speed close to light, also raised his mana and started running while stepping on the air.
The speed itself is fast, but not to the extent that I can shake it off.
But this is it.
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
As I was flying at a tremendous speed, I stopped in the air, and the resulting shockwaves began to destroy the surroundings.
I faced King Bastien, who suddenly appeared through the blowing sand wind.
“This. Have you come all the way east already?”
As the king said, we have already arrived at the Great Desert in the East.
It’s not strange. It ran while emitting mana with full power. It’s not really the speed of light, but it’s close to subsonic. Hundreds of kilometers can be traveled in an instant.
“But are you okay? You’ve been separated from your lovers. Then you wouldn’t be able to use that skill either?”
I laughed at King Bastien’s words while grinning.
“This isn’t something a person who didn’t even give that opportunity to say. Well, it doesn’t matter.”
You should have your freedom back by now.
If it fell to this distance, the containment space created by King Bastian would have been released.
“Are you going to use that technique as a surprise?”
“No way.”
At the king’s words, I looked in the direction of the capital. It’s a long distance, but it’s a distance that even they can catch up to quickly. However, if you move while emitting magic to that extent, of course you will be caught.
That’s not all.
“That’s true. Did you build the wall like this before?”
“It’s a technology called the Colosseum.”
I can’t see it, but I can feel the wall built around me with stubborn magic.
It is not easy to maneuver because there is a wall. It is also easy to spot someone approaching. Can defend against ambush.
It fits the word Colosseum. King Bastian grinned.
“I won’t be able to run away easily anymore.”
Go go go go-!
As the mana of stubbornness moves, the sand dances in the aftermath. A huge flow of magical power that even changes the terrain.
Now that the arena named Colosseum has been built, King Bastian wields his arm by boiling the solid magic power that King Bastian is stepping on as a support.
“Carefully. I can’t resist and I might die.”
Saying it sincerely, with a face saying please don’t die. The will of the mad king to make himself happy is transmitted.
Ugh. This is why psychiatry is essential. If we build a hospital, we should also build a psychiatric unit.
That’s it. I have to take out what I prepared. I took out the magic crystal that I had hidden thoroughly with my magical power until now.
“Hmm?”
King Bastian’s eyes widened.
* * *
As he looked at the magic crystal he had taken out of Leoric’s arms, King Bastian’s mind changed.
A huge magic stone. A by-product of large-scale monsters. The amount of implied magical power. To its magical properties.
King Bastien’s eyes narrowed as the accident had gone all the way there.
“This magic power…”
“Do you remember?”
“It’s the magic of Count Hemillion.”
Is in memory Just as it is a noble man’s homework to memorize the patterns of various aristocratic families, it is also the king’s duty to memorize the magical powers of the aristocratic families he rules.
He knew that Leoric Hyperion was somehow related to Ivan Franz’s wife, Grace Hemillion. There.
‘Certainly, the magical properties of Count Hemillion are…’
This.
King Bastian noticed it belatedly.
The magical properties of the Count Hemillion family are directly linked to synchronization.
Unless you are the owner of the lineage, if you are this far away, you won’t even be able to sense it, let alone connect, but the magic stone containing that magical power is a by-product of a large monster. It is a magic crystal of such high quality that there is no problem even if it is designated as a national treasure.
If you have magic of that level, you can use it like Count-level magic, albeit for a moment. If that’s the case, even if the distance is widened this much, it will be sympathetic and connected with Leoric’s lovers who are sympathetic in advance. Then…
“I can’t stop you.”
When King Bastian spoke, Leoric nodded his head.
The game is not played to win. It’s about trying to piss off your opponent.
King Bastian acted that way. He used even the northern duke’s magic as bait to isolate Leoric and his lovers, and drove Leoric with overwhelming physical force.
But that ends here. Feeling the swelling magic, King Bastien closed his eyes and opened them again, and a new world unfolded.
“Huh.”
King Bastien awoke in another world.
