Chapter 479 – Chapter 479. Imsol (5)
Imsol stretched out his hand.
The magical power of the pentagram rising majestically. A pillar of light showing off its presence in the middle.
Due to the magical energy used to draw the pentagram, there were only two pillars of light left, but they were still showing off their presence.
Among the original devised magic, the highest level magic.
The huge blazing pentagram reacted to its own magical energy, running amok.
However, Imsol’s expression slowly began to harden.
“… Why?”
That was the intuition of Im Sol, who had lived as a wizard.
As soon as the sun summoned by Lee Ho-yeon and the pentagram collided, Im Sol felt his own defeat.
Originally, a wizard’s battle was a repetition of attack and defense.
Anyone can attack, but defense is divided into shield and reverse calculation depending on the level of the wizard.
The higher the level of the magician, the more the opponent’s magic is reversed. This is because reverse calculation can save much more mana than shield.
But Im Sol couldn’t do that.
In order to use magic inside the Heavenly Palace, Im Sol converted mana in seconds.
From the composition of the magic circle to the strength of magical power, to the magician’s breathing.
Responding to the other person’s mana while adjusting all of those factors is something that transcends human cognitive abilities.
Imsol didn’t spread the shield or do reverse calculation to block Lee Ho-yeon’s magic.
She instead smashed it head-on, breaking it.
Fortunately, Im Sol knew all of Lee Ho-yeon’s magical powers through the previous few fights.
That’s why he was able to effectively counter Lee Ho-yeon’s magic even inside Macheon Palace.
With overwhelming magical power, he ate away Lee Ho-yeon’s magical power and broke it.
The operation was a success. In fact, Lee Ho-yeon charged with a meat bullet, and even got a scar on her shoulder.
However, the magic of hell that Lee Ho-yeon saved until the end was different.
Im Sol’s Five Mang Seongjin was able to counter Lee Ho-yeon’s magical power, but the Eclipse, imbued with the magical power of hell, could not be stopped.
“Ah….”
A sigh escapes Imsol’s mouth.
The dark red sun advanced with overwhelming power and devoured the pentagram.
It was a magic that could not be countered even with the magic system that Im Sol had accumulated throughout his life.
The ominous magic that was gradually approaching stimulated Im Sol’s pride again.
“Not yet… Not over yet.”
Im Sol opened her eyes, bit her lip, and looked at Lee Ho-yeon’s magic.
‘The flame condensed from within. And explode. The destructive power is strong, but simple.’
A destructive force strong enough to destroy space itself. It was simple enough that he could use that mana himself if he could calculate it backwards.
However, Im Sol could not interpret the ominous magical power that made up the sun.
That ominous magic was so foreign that it required at least a few weeks of study.
‘This is the last one.’
Im Sol knew that Lee Ho-yeon’s ability to concentrate had reached a limit.
If only that magic was blocked, victory would be guaranteed.
“Overwhelming destructive power… Yes. I’m going with all my heart.”
Sol Im muttered as she stretched out her hand towards the black sun.
Since it is a magic containing the love of a disciple, you must welcome it with your whole heart.
Nothing has changed.
As a teacher, I thought to pay homage to the student’s last magic and do my best to hit it.
Of course, the magic is stronger than I thought, but… If so, it’s just magic.
Even in the desperate situation with the black sun approaching her eyes, Im Sol did not think that she would be pushed back by her magic.
Arrogance as Im Sol, a genius wizard.
… Maybe this will be the last time.
“Armageddon.”
A huge energy gathers in front of Im Sol’s eyes.
A huge mass of elements against the black sun.
Among the magic that Im Sol could use, the most focused on destruction appeared in the arena.
Prick- Pluck-
Eclipse and Armageddon.
The air around them began to quiver as the two huge magical powers resonated.
Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.
Beep beep beep beep.
At the same time, the magic circle in the arena vibrates.
An emergency stop signal that Dalian must stop.
In preparation for an unexpected situation, a magic circle that stopped magic was also installed inside the arena.
However, the two currently in the arena are Im Sol and Lee Ho-yeon.
Only one magic circle could not stop the magic of two genius wizards.
‘… Is it okay?’
Lee Ho-yeon swallowed his saliva.
The huge mass of magic that appeared in front of them looked dangerous to anyone.
If it collides with his own Eclipse, will this battlefield be able to withstand it?
‘I can’t stand it.’
If the person who designed the arena was not the Demon King, he would not be able to withstand it.
However…. If not now, when will we be able to win?
Lee Ho-yeon was also tired of making secret weapons any longer.
Lee Ho-yeon minimized the rune’s barrier and the Macheon Palace, and strongly raised emotion amplification with that magic.
“Professor Sol-yi… I’m going!”
“If you can stop it, stop it…!”
Burn the last fighting spirit.
Eclipse and Armageddon slowly coming into contact.
The shock wave coming out of it was beyond Lee Ho-yeon’s imagination.
‘… Sorry. Mr. Rebecca. Mr. Ayoung.’
I wonder if those two can do something.
Lee Ho-yeon was swept away by the shock wave as he watched the black sun suck up the colored lumps.
*
“…”
Eyesight slanted
I couldn’t stand properly, and it was impossible to move my mana.
It was as if I had been given general anesthesia. I couldn’t control my own body.
Dump.
Eventually, Im Sol fell to the floor and closed her eyes.
Armageddon, pouring out all its magical energy, was swallowed up by the black sun.
As long as Im Sol is inside Macheongung, it might have been natural for her to have her magical energy swallowed up.
Had she misunderstood how to deal with it?
No, the coping was perfect.
‘… Did I catch my guard?’
I was very happy with the growth of my disciple. So I wanted to make sure the last spell was destroyed.
If I had concentrated until the end, would the result have been different?
Imsol shook her head.
‘No.’
Lee Ho-yeon saved her infernal magic until the decisive moment.
Everything was planned Maybe even a cut on her shoulder.
In practice, nothing matters except the outcome.
If Lee Ho-yeon hadn’t reaped her magic at the last moment, she would have died.
It was such a complete defeat.
That buck that buck
I hear someone approaching.
Imsol slowly opened her eyes.
“It was 1 win and 19 losses, right? Fortunately, we won before reaching 20 losses.”
“…Did you aim for it from the beginning? Even the fact that I was caught off guard?”
“Yes. I’m familiar with the professor’s personality. Oh, but I didn’t mean to hurt his shoulder. It was really dangerous.”
Lee Ho-yeon looked around.
A tightly spread rune’s barrier.
Also Rebecca.
Do not betray her own expectations.
“… I lost completely.”
“I’ll call you Sol from now on. Sol.”
“Kuh. Do whatever you want.”
Seeing Lee Ho-yeon smile, Im-sol felt relieved.
I don’t know what’s important about the title Sol, but it’s good if you’re a disciple.
Rumbling-
Blood flows from Imsol’s mouth.
Is it too much? I should have just admitted defeat in the end.
The desire to receive the sincerity of the disciple was so great.
Although Lee Ho-yeon retrieved her mana right before, it wasn’t without shock to Im-sol.
Dump.
Im Sol, who lost her consciousness, collapsed on the floor of her arena.
“… Huh? Professor?”
Lee Ho-yeon, who erased her smile, immediately approached Im Sol.
If his life ever got in the way, he wouldn’t be able to forgive himself.
Stumble.
However, his own feet did not move on their own.
It’s been a long time since I felt mana exhaustion. Even the blood beat’s recoil and the headache that kept the macheongung for a long time.
As soon as the tension in the body was released, all the recoil accumulated in the battle came.
– Cow, Sol… ! Hey, honey no. Oh, no! Wow!
He heard a familiar voice and urgent footsteps, and Lee Ho-yeon’s vision went dark.
*
“…”
“…”
The arena with thousands of people was as quiet as a dead rat.
Adults, children, men and women of all ages were concentrating on the match between Im Sol and Lee Ho-yeon.
This was training after all.
In the morning, the professor taught the cadets and there were many sparring sessions conducted amicably.
But, it wasn’t those two.
“Ho, Hoyeonah. No. Why are you doing that?”
“Awesome…. Awesome. If it’s like this from the beginning, we can make it a regular enough event!”
“Chairman! Is that a problem now? Aren’t you crazy?! It’s not something that needs to be stopped quickly!”
“Ah, ah, Surin. I’m sorry. Wait a minute, look at Cadet Lee Ho-yeon’s expression! The one who’s serious about sparring is that kid!”
“I know that too…!”
The more confident they were in their skills, the more they watched the match with their eyes wide open.
The same goes for Lucy and Rumi, who just finished sparring. After coming out of the waiting room and sitting in the audience seats, they muttered at a couple of different levels.
“Mr. Hoyeon…”
“Lou, Rumi. What did I do?”
“Lucy. It’s okay. If we learn from Mr. Hoyeon, we will surely…”
The other cadets couldn’t take their eyes off the sparring that was happening right in front of them.
I knew Im Sol was strong.
Even if he is not a wizard, the genius wizard Im Sol is famous.
“… Was Lee Ho-yeon like that?”
“I said it was strong. I said it was beyond the cadet level.”
“I know that, but does that make sense?”
The same goes for reporters who need to write breaking news quickly.
The reporters who were writing the breaking news also focused on the sparring with their hands on the keyboard as the sparring progressed.
They also knew that if they missed this match, they would never see it again.
“What the hell is going on?
“… Sister. My head hurts. I’m sorry….”
“Eh, Alice. Are you okay?”
Elise collapsed onto Irene as her throbbing headache gripped her.
I was satisfied with my increased skills after a lot of hard work for a month, but now I can’t help but lose my strength when I see the sparring taking place in the training ground.
How many years will it take to catch up to that?
“… Uh, uh. It seems like a big deal.”
Irene focused on the ending sparring while hugging Ellis.
The atmosphere in the arena changed due to the magic that Lee Ho-yeon, who had been consistently pushed back in Dalian, brought out.
Im-sol’s magic breaks down, and Im-sol also brings out her final winning move.
Crackle. Supportive position-
A vibration that can be felt even outside the arena.
But this time it was a bit harsh.
“…Sister. The magic circle is dangerous!”
“Your sister knows. Let’s go down!”
A huge mass of elements summoned by Im Sol collides with the black sun.
The enormous energy from the collision exceeded the limit that the magic circle in the arena could withstand.
The magicians around the arena were infusing magic, but that was not enough.
Irene and Elise jumped around the arena to add even a little help.
But right before the magic circle breaks.
A thick barrier spread around the arena.
Irene noticed the barrier as soon as she saw it.
‘Rebecca.’
She opened the rune’s barrier.
Irene immediately understood what she had to do and she commanded the wizards in the arena.
“Iris Guild’s 1st team leader. I’m Irene!
“Ah, Mr. Irene!”
“Concentrate! We can block enough.”
Rebecca’s identity must be hidden.
She says she has a fake identity, but she doesn’t have to scratch and make a bruise.
Irene commanded the wizards in the arena and prevented the aftermath of a huge magical collision.
Fortunately, Lee Ho-yeon recovered her mana, so there was no further commotion.
After a while.
Irene laughed at Lee Ho-yeon standing in the arena.
‘That’s a monster.’
Even Irene could only admire the magic that Im Sol showed throughout the match.
Undoubtedly, the skill of a genius wizard.
However, the winner was Lee Ho-yeon.
She’s been an outrageous flirt since the first time I saw her, but her abilities as a wizard are real.
‘… At that rate, her dad will try to marry Ellis first.’
A skill that even her father, a fool of her daughter, would appreciate.
Ha.
Irene sighed as she watched the emergency medical team go up to the arena and returned to her audience.
Though concerned about Lee Ho-yeon’s condition, she was only because Ellis was trying to get out of her auditorium.
“Sister. Let’s go.”
“Huh? Can I not go to Hoyeon?”
“… What are you going to do? You didn’t even come to my waiting room.”
Irene looked at her pouting sister’s back and smiled at her.
In the waiting room, she felt bad that Lee Ho-yeon wasn’t there, but she seems to still remember that.
Irene, who was trying to follow him to appease her Elise, felt an eerie magical power momentarily.
“…”
The entrance to the audience seats.
Most of the audience was immersed in the afterglow of the fight, but they saw a man from the back as he exited through the doorway.
– Chijik. Jijik.
Irene manipulated the smart watch.
Around the auditorium were Iris Guild members who were collaborating with Victoria Academy.
– Yes. Mr. Irene. This is Kang Hyo-rin, the head of the Korean branch.
– Yes. By any chance, during Lee Ho-yeon’s sparring, there were no intruders in the auditorium, right? A suspicious person
– Not a single ant entered the house without permission.
– … Okay.
Irene tilted her head as she turned off her smartwatch.
“Is it an illusion too?”
Irene couldn’t properly identify the man who ran over her scarlett. She was, so she wasn’t sure.
Maybe she contacted Im Sol and Lee Ho-yeon’s mana, and an anomaly occurred for a while.
“Sister. I’ll go first.”
“Yeah. Let’s go together. Ellis. But are you going to visit the hospital later?”
“… I don’t know.”
Irene followed Ellis and erased her troubles.
