Chapter 116 – Cruel Earth Mage (5)
《──Arise as a god (Dd.F xa m nTr).》
─Pause seats!!
Dozens of rock golems sprouted from the ground.
It was a golem that looked much stronger than the earth golem. As soon as they were born, they were buffed by the dark magic aura emitted by the giant golem, causing changes.
“GOGOGOGOGOGO──!!!!”
“Gooooo!!”
─Wood Deuk!!
Charred golems! In less than 10 seconds, a platoon of rock golems was completed.
The black magician raised a wand and rang a hongso.
“Quack! Haha!! Are there still wizards capable of wide-area attacks? If you have any left, try it! Me and Knumut will personally go to kill me!!!”
“That sibul jjang is leaking.”
There was nothing I could do but curse at the cruel declaration.
That smart chewer seemed to save his troops until he handled a wizard who could sweep his army at once.
Was it because he didn’t go insane as a side effect of black magic? It was a strategy design that was not like a warlock child without a fucking mother. I couldn’t think of a way out of this situation.
“… Nor.”
─Hey.
I met Fran’s eyes. We could read each other’s thoughts without saying a word.
It’s enough to have stayed here. This kind of loyalty neither Fran nor I wanted.
Isn’t it too shameless to want someone who can survive to die together?
“──Tirshi. Lalilula.”
I tried to tell them to run away first.
He probably would have made eye contact with Fran if it had been a few seconds earlier.
─Weeeee!!!
But the words never came out of my mouth. My head stared at the huge mana rapidly approaching from outside the barrier.
─Tah!!
The person who ran with a momentum reminiscent of a missile kicked off the ground and leaped. It was such a huge jump that I thought I wouldn’t be able to jump that high even if a mine exploded at my feet.
《Like a Serpent in the Desert (r-Hr.I ir.Kwi mi sA-tAn smt).》
Short Narmer – Nile uh! Casting an incantation that felt nothing like a warlock’s grim incantation, the woman swung the whip in her hand.
─It’s so cool!! The whip that danced like a snake became incredibly long and gave off a light blue aura!!
─Two kwa kwa kwa kwa kow!!!
The whip, wrapped in light the thickness of my waist, flashed four times, and the rock golems born in the wilderness exploded as if they had been hit by an bombardment.
Incredible power! But it was also a familiar attack. My eyes grew so big they seemed to protrude out of their sockets.
– Chuck.
A sky-blue haired woman who lands almost silently. As she landed around the golems who were about two minutes old, she spotted a warlock in the distance and muttered,
“Found.”
─Aww! The lowered whip scraped the floor.
The strongest adventurer of Sargadis had appeared.
***
The Sekhmet Guild is an adventurer’s guild that started in Narmer-Nile.
Narmer-Nile has been a country with abundant resources and wide plains since ancient times. Its geographical advantage became a springboard for the growth of the country of the Narmerians.
The problem was that it wasn’t just the good people flocking to the livable land.
Black magicians and numerous monsters who are secretly moving all over the country!
The history of Narmer-Nile was also a history of struggle to defend the country against enemies who threatened peace.
And the Sekhmet Guild is an adventurer’s guild that was launched in such a bloody country.
It would be natural if it was natural for them to specialize in monster eradication.
──But.
Even if the range was expanded to Narmer-Nile, where the base was located—how many people would be allowed to wear mithril plates?
The step right below the ‘master class’ that gives you the qualification to establish your own guild!
The Mithril class was such a position.
─Where you go!!!
So I wasn’t surprised.
Even though Nefertiti, a mithril-class adventurer, had escaped the warlock’s trap by herself, and even though she ran into that huge golem casually.
─Shurrrr
The weight of Nefertiti, as short as a riding whip, stretched terribly with each swing. The whip wrapped in a thick aura hit the warlock like a wild serpent.
─Touquaaaaa!!
A roar like a jet plane going down!
The Auror’s serpent beat the warlock’s body, but it didn’t even fall off the golem’s shoulder. The same blue barrier that blocked the thief’s arrow was activated.
“You’re here!! Nefertiti——!!”
The warlock blocked the attack of the whip and fired a frenzy. The hood of the robe came off, revealing the bastard’s distorted face.
‘This bitch is fucking ugly.’
There was a large bump or something on her forehead, and half of her face was ugly as if it had collapsed. Nefertiti returned the whip and half-opened his eyes.
《Abidus. Don’t miss it this time.”
《Try it!! Today is the day you become my golem, or I get eaten by your snake!!”
The black magician raised his wand and cast a spell. The scene from before, when she was shouting loudly as if asking someone to listen, was a fast and quiet chant like a lie.
─Flash!
The black magician, who chanted a spell at great speed, changed the barrier.
The barrier of the sky turned red and the barrier of the earth went out. The giant golem’s body turned black and its snout opened.
It gave rise to vague ominous feelings and chills, like the night sea seen for the first time after getting on a boat. An evil mana that causes resistance to your instincts as a creature! It was black magic.
“Fooooo──!!”
The giant golem roared. It seemed to have absorbed all the mana that strengthened the golem.
Faaaaa!!
“Kyaaak?!”
“Fuck?!”
The change in the barrier also affected the Beutakgi who were dumbfounded.
The barrier, which turned red, began to shrink in scope, and that caused those who remained inside to get caught up in it without asking or questioning!
“Wow wow wow!!”
“Kyaaaaa!”
Even Lalilura and Tyrsi, who were able to escape the blue barrier, could not pass through this barrier and were dragged away!
We ended up rolling 100 meters around the giant golem, showing off the ugliness of mosquitoes helplessly pushed away by a narrowing mosquito net.
─Chwaaaaagh!
The bugs were dragged to the street where they could look up at the golem! Nefertiti, who watched it, looked at the gold class adventurers.
“Sorry. Disturbed.”
“──Sorry!”
Treated as an obstacle, they retreated without resentment.
“Philips!! Look at Jackson’s wounds!! You follow me and step back!! Don’t interfere with Nefertiti’s battle!!”
“Yep!!”
The Beutaks who responded loudly retreated hastily. Our party was there too.
There was no idiot who disobeyed orders after intuition about that battle.
─Two-kwang!! Kururureung!!
The giant golem punched out at high speed like a runaway truck.
It was a high-speed punch that made the tips of his fists blur even though it was 30 meters long. The combination of mass and speed plowed the ground Nefertiti avoided like a crater.
─Shurrrr Wow!!
Nefertiti strikes back. Aura’s serpent flashed like lightning and struck the golem’s elbow.
─Puuong!!
Explosive stillbirth arm! But Nefertiti, who was expressionless, twitched her eyebrows. The broken giant golem’s arm regenerated in less than two seconds.
The warlock shouted mockingly as he attacked with the regenerated golem’s arm.
Haha!! I like it, Nefertiti!! Knumut is a newly created special product just for you!!
《… You just attack until you collapse.”
Nefertiti swung the whip with one hand in succession. A fierce barrage of whips beat the giant golem’s entire body.
─Kurrureurrureung!!!
It was as if the sky was splitting and the ground was collapsing.
The sound of the air-slicing whipping sound was enough to give goosebumps, and the 30-meter golem raging like a tsunami was unrealistic enough to break the sense of perspective.
Stepping back with the other adventurers, I felt strange watching their battle.
‘Isn’t the warlock himself not attacking?’
What comes to mind is the mage who was attacked earlier.
He was being treated by a priest near me to see if he had managed to die instantly, but the warlock apparently defended his attack by using magic.
However, Nefertiti’s attack was blocked only by the blue barrier.
‘There is only one difference.’
Whether the attack was magic or not.
In terms of mana, Nefertiti’s whip also wrapped around the aura, but it didn’t work. If so, isn’t that blue barrier a shield that only increases physical defense?
‘The barrier in the sky was like that too.’
The barrier in the sky that separated those who could pass through at will and those who could not pass at all.
I don’t know what standard to pass and not to pass, but isn’t there a reason to deliberately decide who gets out? The situation was different from when the survivors of the silver class team were sent alive.
Looking at the atmosphere of the conversation, Nefertiti and that bastard are acquaintances.
What if Nefertiti, a mithril class, was in a rural city like this because she was chasing that bastard?
What if all the traps that took a long time were to lure and kill Nefertiti?
‘If that’s true… This is dangerous.’
It wasn’t usually dangerous, but it was fucking dangerous.
The Warlock Cub was at least a mithril class. It’s 100% certain that he’s fighting head-on with Nefertiti.
That kind of guy took the time to come up with a plan to kill Nefertiti.
Isn’t the physical resistance shield on the regenerating golem a preparation to nullify Nefertiti’s attack?
And the red barrier must have been a trap triggered so as not to let go of Nefertiti, who came to kill him. After that bastard reduced the range, no one could escape!
‘Fuck. It’s fucked up.’
The other guild leaders still couldn’t escape the trap of the forest.
After killing Nefertiti and the guild leaders, the young warlock will launch an assault on Sargadis!
More than anything else, weren’t we also imprisoned in this fucking barrier! Even 7-year-old Jammin noticed that if Nefertiti lost, we too would become tomato juice with Happy One!
– Bang bang bang bang!!
A giant golem hitting the ground like a meteor shower! Nefertini avoided and parried such a wide range of attacks with a paper difference.
“You’re still fast!! In four years, it will become a first-class product as a power source for my golem’s soul!!”
The warlock stood proudly on the shoulder of the rampaging golem and spoke greedily.
《Nefertiti!! Be mine!! If you become my golem, I can ascend to the seat of the Six Stars!!”
《… As for the warlocks, I’ll send them all to the list. You and the other Immortalis.”
Haha!! What an arrogant dream!! Make sure to finish it inside my golem!!”
I could understand the language, but it was full of unknown words. Still, there were expressions that I recognized.
‘With soul power?’
I felt like my brain was exploding.
Black magicians are undead. When it comes to the undead, isn’t it necromancy?
I forgot about the golem because it was so chewy. It’s normal for a warlock to use undead as their main force, not golems, but that humpback idiot had been using only golems since before.
Was it only to avoid the side effects of black magic?
Even so, it was strange. If I just made a golem, wouldn’t I need to learn black magic? Even a mage with a broken personality is usually not allowed to dabble in black magic unless you’re a crazy bastard, isn’t it?
‘──What is the black magic he mainly uses?’
I thought about why golems can use magic.
If Ringling had a magic circle engraved inside like the magic missile of No. 3, side effects would go to the black magician who activated it. Because the mana that activates magic is taken from the person himself.
A side effect of black magic is that it applies to creatures with bodies.
Because it is life, it does not have aptitude for darkness and negative mana.
‘Then—if it’s a ‘soul’ that’s already dead?’
Wasn’t that what he meant by the ‘soul power furnace’?
With the soul of Nefertiti, a Mithril class, it would be possible to create a golem that can use more powerful black magic!
“… Then.”
If so, I also had the means to reverse this situation.
I closed my eyes and focused.
─Whiririririk!
The mana of the runes within me opened her eyes.
