Chapter 654 – Chapter 654. Demon King’s Attack (5)
[Hunters from all over the world united in the sudden gathering of demons. The hunters say that the future of mankind is at stake in this battle…]
[The place where the hunters gathered for the future of mankind is Seoul, Korea. Citizens are grateful for their dedication…]
A suburb near Seoul.
Namyangju has become an empty field due to a gate that appeared about 5 years ago.
This was the place to greet the demon legion.
Lee Ho-yeon handed out the blueprint of the interception magic circle to the wizards.
The magic circle was too huge to make alone, so I had to get help from other wizards.
“It’s good to install a magic circle. But isn’t it too much to tell you the configuration right now? It’s the first time I’ve been treated like this.”
“There is no magician better than the professor anyway, so he wouldn’t have made the composition himself. This would be the first time he was treated with all the composition.”
“My student speaks well. But that’s not the problem.”
“So you’re saying you can’t?”
“…I didn’t say I couldn’t do it. It’s my job to let others know, so it’s annoying.”
Whoops-
Im Sol, who understood the composition of the magic circle as soon as he saw it, immediately injected magic into it.
As Imsol’s magic moved, the magic circle designed by Lee Ho-yeon began to vibrate.
The magicians who lead the magic circle are Im Sol and Lee Ho-yeon.
It was the collaboration of two genius wizards of this era.
The other wizards around were muttering as if they were fascinated by the conversation between Lee Ho-yeon and Im Sol.
“…Did Mage Imsol understand this complex magic circle as soon as he saw it?”
“I don’t know if Im Sol, who understood right away, is great, or whether Lee Ho-yeon, who created a magic circle that no one can understand, is great.”
“Looking at the fact that President Arthur also looks away, I don’t think the president of the association doesn’t understand either?”
Hundreds of wizards analyzed the magic circle, but they couldn’t read the magic circle properly.
The magicians simply poured magic into them according to Imsol’s instructions.
“By the way, where is the power source? I thought it would bring infinite entropy, but are you using your mana?”
“That can’t be the case. The power to use for this magic circle is the magic of hell.”
“Hell’s magic?”
“Yes. Where the demon legions are located, the density of hell’s magic must be high. I’m thinking of absorbing the hell’s magic that spreads in this area.”
“You mean to absorb the magic of hell that wants to take over the space around the magic circle? Hmm… But in order to do that, the entire demon corps needs to approach at breakneck speed. If not, what will we do?”
“Well then. I have to use my magical power. That’s the best situation ever.”
I didn’t bother to tell Imsol, but I was thinking of using Lee Ho-yeon and Liliana’s magic if things didn’t go according to plan.
In particular, since Liliana’s magical power is extremely wide, she can receive enough help.
“This way. No, the coordinates are wrong. Are you a member of the Wizards Association?”
“I’m sorry…”
Lee Ho-yeon designed the magic circle, but Im Sol’s role is to teach other magicians how to use the magic circle.
He himself was the leader of the allied forces, so he had many other things to do.
After confirming that Imsol was giving instructions to the wizards, I thought it was okay and turned my head, but I saw cute eyes watching from the corner.
“…?”
Twins Lucy and Rumi.
They stood at a distance from the wizards.
‘Why are they there?’
Lee Ho-yeon approached Lucy and Rumi, who shrugged her shoulders nervously.
“What are you doing?”
“Ah! Mr. Hoyeon…! The wizards said we could stay out.”
“It’s a very difficult magic circle, and the cadets told me to rest for now. I thought I shouldn’t interfere…”
Since the magic circle is so big and it takes more than 12 hours to prepare, it seems that he advised me to save my stamina.
They are surprisingly good wizards.
“If you’re as talented as you are, I can understand. But it’s true that you have to conserve your stamina, so let’s take a break. And it just went well. I had something I wanted to say.”
Lucy and Rumi are not the only Victoria Academy cadets here.
Even if they were still cadets, if they signed a contract with a guild or were already recognized as strong as active hunters, they were all called up to the allied forces.
I’ve never seen his face, but Kim Young-han must be here too.
Lee Ho-yeon looked around moderately and then continued.
“There’s a team I’ve chosen. Lucy and Rumi are Alpha-5, right?”
“Huh.”
“Yes that’s right.”
“You two must never step out of the positions I’ve set for you. Absolutely not. … Okay?”
The last episode of this world, the attack of the demon king.
If humanity loses in this battle, the world will perish anyway.
Knowing the result, I struggled for several days to deploy personnel as efficiently as possible.
However, even so, the heroines were placed in a slightly safer location.
It’s a battle where everything depends, and if you lose, the world ends, but Lee Ho-yeon is also a human being, so I couldn’t get rid of my emotions.
This is not a reason to finish with all the heroines captured.
I just didn’t want them to die.
“Uh, uh, okay. I get it.”
“Yes. Mr. Hoyeon…”
Lucy and Rumi also nodded in Lee Ho-yeon’s serious mood.
Of course, they intended to stick right behind Im Sol even if Lee Ho-yeon didn’t say that.
“I’ll take a break and help the professor. I have to go see other people.”
Lee Ho-yeon smiled at Lucy and Rumi and moved on to another place.
A magic circle was drawn where the wizards gathered, and hunters were having conversations all over the field.
Most hunters simulated mock battles against demons.
I referred to the demon battle video and shared my own experience.
“How the hell did Mage Lee Ho-yeon come up with such a plan?”
“Yes. The weakness of the fly corps was to get rid of the host. Even then, it seems that the flies gathered in one corpse. Did you figure this out only by observation?”
Among the hunters who were talking, Lee Ho-yeon found her familiar face.
It was Nam Da-eun, surrounded by Hunters.
“I’ve heard the story of Cadet Nam Da-eun a lot lately… Hey. A sword that cuts through space. Why wasn’t this talent discovered from the beginning?”
“Ah, ahaha… Thank you.”
“I’m Min Ye-ji, Team 1 Leader of Iron Blood Guild. I’m Cadet Nam Da-eun. If you’re thinking of joining the guild…”
“There are people who need permission to join the guild… I’m sorry.”
“Permission…? Cadet Nam Da-eun’s parents… No. Kheheum! But first, the business card…”
Yeji Min, that person is still serious about recruiting.
Nam Da-eun’s destructive power is so outstanding that he was placed in a different group from the heroines he lives with, and it’s fortunate that he seems to be getting along well.
There is also Moonsoo Rin in her group, and since her center is Nam Da-eun, it will be easy to protect her.
The rest of the heroines living at home were all grouped into the same group.
Because they didn’t have a guild, they were worried.
“Liliana, you… Um. Wait in the rear for now?”
“What? Why do I not have a role?”
Liliana and Rebecca. The leader of the group where Scarlett is assigned is Rebecca.
It seems that Rebecca also became famous while trying to get rid of her black pillar, so the other hunters didn’t seem to be against it.
“It’s not that she doesn’t have a role. Liliana can fulfill all of her roles. You just need to support her where Liliana seems to be struggling.”
“Oh! The main character always appears last! Scout. Would you like to stay by my side?”
“… I have work to do.”
That’s all you need to know.
Lee Ho-yeon, who looked around Eolchu, returned to the vicinity of the magic circle.
Although she entrusted it to Im Sol, she and Im Sol have to make the core magic formula together.
*
“Remember.”
Gying-
An interception magic circle created over a long period of 12 hours.
A masterpiece filled with Lee Ho-yeon and Im Sol’s magic rose into the sky.
“You made this in just 12 hours? Are those two really human?”
“Can you say that just by looking at it? … Of course you’re not human.”
Lee Ho-yeon and Im Sol made most of the composition of the huge magic circle, but they didn’t seem to be tired at all.
The wizards couldn’t help but be even more surprised by that fact.
Just as he was wrapping up the completed magic circle, a blonde man approached Lee Ho-yeon.
“Mage Lee Ho-yeon.”
“Yes. Iris guild leader.”
“… They are coming.”
“I know. A magic circle was created just in time.”
Lee Ho-yeon smiled at Isaac and looked at the darkness beyond.
The demons gradually increased their speed as they got closer and reached Namyangju faster than expected.
“I also made a magic circle… I’m glad everyone seems to be ready.”
Lee Ho-yeon turned on the smart watch and put it to his mouth.
[Please wait at your assigned location. Enemies are approaching.]
“Prepare for battle!”
“The lightning magic circle is perfect!”
The battle preparations were perfect without having to say anything, but the hunters raised their fighting spirit by shouting loudly.
The wizards unfolded the magic circles they had prepared, and those who wielded weapons raised magic power to their bodies.
Thud-. Thud-.
The sound of the earth getting closer and closer.
It was the sound of them approaching.
“… Whoa.”
Lee Ho-yeon closed her eyes for a moment, then opened them.
The darkness covering the blue sky quickly approached the fields of Namyangju.
I did everything I could to prepare.
If his calculations were correct, the allied forces were a force that would never be outgunned against the devil.
All that remains is to do our best in this battle.
“Dog eyes.”
Pounding- pounding-
Lee Ho-yeon’s heart started beating fast.
A sharpened sense covers his body.
Its golden eyes scan each and every one of the legions of demons approaching from afar.
Demons, each of which emits mighty mana, and the monsters of hell that follow them.
They rushed to trample the fields as if they had no intention of grasping the strength of this side.
Seeing the demons approaching at high speed, Lee Ho-yeon smiled bitterly.
“Yeah. It seemed like they were going to charge without any plan.”
The demon lord’s infernal magic is like a typhoon.
It suppresses the entire space and consumes the magic power of the earth.
What Lee Ho-yeon was aiming for was that power.
The magic of hell that covers Namyangju.
It is to absorb it into the magic circle.
– Koo-oo-!
– Karr, Karrrr!
Pounding- pounding-
Every time the demons and monsters got closer, the beating in his heart got worse.
A sense of exhilaration that I have never experienced before fills my body.
Lee Ho-yeon smiled involuntarily.
“Deployment of Macheon Palace.”
As they approached, the magic of hell naturally followed, and Lee Ho-yeon exercised control over the magic of hell entering the palace of Macheon.
It was Lee Ho-yeon’s job to send a huge amount of hellish magic to the magic circle.
“Activate the interception magic circle.”
Lee Ho-yeon raised his hand toward the sky.
Clouds blocking the sunlight as if someone had put them together.
He slapped his hand down at the clouds.
That moment.
The sky parted.
A huge interception magic circle hidden above the clouds.
It is a magic circle created by improving and combining hundreds of magic circles.
A secret weapon powerful enough to easily destroy a country.
Lee Ho-yeon infused magic into the magic circle without a single thought.
Geeeeeing-!
Hoyeon Lee, who was in the lead, saw a strong light that turned her eyes white.
Before long, the magic circle that absorbed the magical energy of the whole area of hell began to rotate.
Aaaaagh-!
Magic rained down on the heads of the charging demon legion.
Overwhelming destructive power that devastated the entire area.
The magic circle that swallowed all of the surrounding hell’s magic emitted more and more splendid light, and each time the disaster that fell from the sky became stronger.
– Big, big, big!
– Kagagagak. Kah, kagagak!
The rushing monsters collapsed in formation as if they were taken aback by the sudden artillery fire, but the demons were different from the monsters.
Demons, a fighting race born for battle.
They knew that this was the time to attack.
Taat-
The fastest demon jumped out in the lead.
It was Karcus.
The gnome casually dodged the bombardment raining down on his head and charged at his prey.
What Karcus is aiming for is the frontmost human.
Hoyeon Lee.
– Human… ! Human! Kill… !
Karkus had low intelligence, but he was a hunter.
He did not forget the humans who hunted him.
Karkus’ claws became faster and sharper with the power of the Demon King.
Even if the opponent is a human who killed him once, the current Karcus can win.
Cad de de deuk-
A roar erupts from the bent leg.
A monstrous body capable of exceeding the speed of sound simply by running.
Karkus kicked the floor and drove the blade into the neck of his prey in an instant.
– Human! Caught… !
Karkus was certain of the death of his prey in front of his eyes.
It was an attack that could never be avoided no matter how fast it was.
It had to be.
However, right before the blade touches his throat.
The prey disappeared before his eyes.
Faaaaang-!
Karkus’s sharp blade pierced the air.
“That’s why it’s easy to catch stupid bastards.”
Wooddeuk-
It was only for one moment that Karkus lost Lee Ho-yeon.
However, as soon as Karkus recognized that fact, he felt his vision flipped.
– This, human…
Thud-!
Karkus’s body was sprawled on the floor.
Less than 1 second.
Killed a demon with a single attack.
The hunters around them widened their eyes at Lee Ho-yeon’s inaction.
But this was just the beginning.
As soon as Lee Ho-yeon confirmed that Karkus’ neck was falling with her golden eyes, she put her magic into her voice.
“The battle begins.”
