A genius gamer, reincarnated into a famous hero episode 62

Wizard Days (8)

Alehardin’s execution platform was originally a 6-star magic, but Natalen modified all of her magic so that even low-level wizards could use it.

For example, Alehardin’s execution platform, which originally dropped dozens of guillotines, could be downgraded to a 3-star magic by dropping only one guillotine.

It may be far less powerful than the arcane magic that executed Alehardin, who had dozens of heads, but if it hits even one, it will be at a level that cannot be ignored!

“Ugh… … Damn you, you bastard… … !”

Gallick held the severed part of his right arm with his left hand.

Thanks to the narrow spread of the shield, the guillotine missed slightly, but it could not prevent it from being completely cut off from below the right shoulder.

‘… … It was something like that.’

The moment his magic hit Gallic, Harang gained something new.

In an instant, a silver halo enveloped Harang, and his hair fluttered gently as if defying gravity.

‘No matter how fast your reaction speed is, if you cannot analyze magic, it is difficult to respond… … .’

Why was this simple fact not recognized until now? If you think about it, it’s so simple that anyone can think of it.

Why wizards are obsessed with arcane magic.

The reason why they keep their magic hidden within the confines of their family.

It was right here.

The moment you are seen by others, you will immediately find a way to deal with it!

‘If you think about it, swordsmanship was similar.’

In order to defeat an opponent who was much stronger than himself, Harang used fake sword techniques to hide them.

It was an unusual event in a duel between knights, but it was always routine for Harang, who was a gamer!

Pretending to use a skill and not using it causes the opponent’s movement skill to be consumed, and pretending to move backwards moves forward to miss the opponent’s skill… … .

Since everyone used the same skills and had similar reflexes, this type of psychological warfare was essential for gamers.

‘It is impossible to develop arcane magic forever without being noticed by others… … In particular, I am just memorizing magic by cramming it. If you use up all your magic due to lack of creativity, that’s the end.’

Unless you find and learn new magic, Harang’s ‘magic’ resource will eventually be used up.

Wizards constantly pursue and develop magic, but the current Harang was unable to do so.

“You… … !!”

Galic exploded with dark red energy and tried to spin the blade around Harang’s body and tear it to shreds, but his magic split the air.

[Street of Mirage]

“Woah, it’s an illusion? There’s no way I could fall prey to illusions… … !”

Magic that the opponent does not know about. A magic that the opponent cannot understand. If I could use it forever, everything would be different about the current magic system.

‘Oh, right… … .’

The current Harang was not aware of it, but his head was spinning faster than ever.

The silver eyes glowed so dazzlingly that they ate away at the red energy of this altar.

‘It is impossible to hide sword techniques and skills. What about magic? Is magic also impossible? why not?’

The moment magic is used, a magic circle appears. Most wizards understood the magic by reading and analyzing the formulas, runes, and symbols of the magic circle. Or maybe I just memorized all the magic circles!

It is theoretically impossible to hide a magic circle.

then.

‘Isn’t it possible to confuse the opponent by spreading useless codes on the magic circle? … ?’

Skills and sword techniques are impossible, but only magic is possible.

The magic circle appears to be perfectly constructed, but everyone uses it differently.

Some people draw the Yukmangseong with strokes from right to left, while others draw strokes from bottom to top.

‘The same formula is used in a different order… … .’

Current magic is very easily optimized. It’s already been hundreds of years since the Age of Magic. The era has come where that has to be the case.

So, what if we intentionally increase the formula to be more complicated?

1+1 is 2.

The correct answer to 1²+2×1-1 is also 2.

If you add minor details one by one and messily insert dummy formulas and code that do not interfere with the essence of the magic… … .

“Damn it, I won’t get hit this time! Soar!”

As Harang unfolded the magic circle, Gallic hurriedly unfolded four mud barriers around his body.

This time, it was a magic circle in a somewhat familiar shape, but the formula was somewhat complicated, so I thought it must be magic I had never seen before!

However, the identity of the magic he cast… … It wasn’t that special.

[Icicle Shower]

A really simple and basic 3-star spell that summons icicles in the sky and rains them down on your head!

‘what… … ?’

Gallic, who was unable to defend his head due to the curtains covering all directions, was so vain that his entire body was pierced by icicles, and he fell to his knees.

“Wow… … !!”

Unable to withstand the barrage of icicles on his back, Gallic vomited blood and trembled all over.

The vaunted black magic could not be used properly. Even the final blow was not the opponent’s arcane magic, but just ordinary magic. The mental pain was even greater than the physical pain.

Let’s go! As Harang approached, Gallic held back the pain and raised his head. I felt like yelling.

“Tsk!”

The moment I met the silver-white eyes that resembled the morning star, my heart felt tight, my spine tingled, and I couldn’t breathe.

I was overwhelmed by the look in his eyes.

That moment.

Gallic’s trembling body stopped.

He looked at the magic circle spinning around on Harang’s wrist with blank eyes for some reason.

‘… … ‘Is that the true form of magic?’

Until now, for Gallic, magic has been.

It was just a tool for survival, nothing more or less.

A very powerful weapon that can effectively fight against back alley thugs.

Gallic studied magic for that purpose. He was naturally weak and afraid of fighting, so he became a gangster to earn a living. The only way to survive was to use his smart brain.

Magic is a tool. Therefore, he confined magic to a small framework called a ‘tool’ and used it, and never once in his life doubted his ideas.

Because not only he, but most wizards in this world were like that!

However, right after witnessing Harang’s magic. The axis of thought began to creak and twist in his mind.

‘Ah, yes…’ … That’s what magic is.’

Galic recalled the first time he learned magic. The emotion of that day when he was able to make fireworks shine in his hands and handle lightning.

However, I gained new colleagues and younger siblings. They were so weak that they couldn’t use magic or aurors, and to be honest, they were like a burden to Gallic.

To protect them, Gallic honed his magic to become even more ferocious.

After that day when I wielded magic as a weapon to protect my younger siblings.

As Gallic learned magic, he could no longer feel this way.

maybe… … I thought I would never feel it again in my life.

“Ha, just one more time… … .”

“… … what?”

Harang was wary, wondering if he was trying to memorize a spell, but he noticed that something had changed in Gallic’s eyes.

“My last one… … With your magic… … .”

Even though his entire body was torn apart by icicles and he no longer had the strength to open his mouth, Gallic requested magic.

Harang was already preparing a wind blade to cut off his head, but after hearing Gallic’s words, Harang had a change of heart and used ‘Myth Descent’.

Heavenly Punishment Type 1

When Harang lightly gestured, a golden magic circle was created at the top of the dark cave ceiling, and dazzling sunlight poured down.

“Oh, oh… … Giving this level of honor to a trash person like me… … .”

Gallic stretches his hand toward that place as if he had witnessed a miracle from God.

Before he knew it, he was shedding a tear.

“Really, thank you… … .”

Confession, calling of light

Eventually, a beam of light as thin as a person’s forearm shot out and pierced Gallic’s heart.

That moment.

“ah… … !”

After gaining enlightenment, the mana circle in Galic’s chest increased to 6 in an instant.

Ji-ing-!!

like that.

The wizard Galic has come to his end.

* * *

Weeing! Weeing! Weeing!

Something similar to an ambulance also existed in this world. Even though it wasn’t a car, it was a carriage that came and carried the patient.

Due to the magical clash between Gallic and Harang, the altar completely collapsed, and the judge who arrived late saw an unbelievable sight.

They came to arrest the most wanted warlock, Galic, but didn’t a young boy overpower and kill him?

And what’s even more shocking is… … .

“Archbishop Mafred. You will be arrested for blasphemy and apostasy.”

It was Mafred, the archbishop of Rondelle Cathedral, who colluded with the pagans and fell into sanctity!

It was revealed that they had even kidnapped a child and tried to sacrifice it to the devil, and a report was even made to the authorities of St. Benedis.

More than just a topic of conversation, it was a scoop. The corruption of the archbishop is such an incredibly shocking story.

“Thank you for your hard work. You are truly amazing. “People will remember the name ‘Days’ for a long time.”

“… … .”

The person who approached and spoke was Caladern’s secret agent, Maltyren.

As soon as Harang saw him, he looked slightly sorry. Malty Ren, seeing that face, expressed her doubts.

“Why are you doing that?”

“I feel sorry for all of you who have suffered so far.”

“… … “What do you mean?”

He pointed to Bishop Mafred, who was arrested and taken away.

“That one. You guys have been going through a hard time trying to get him arrested for months, right? In fact, I almost cut off its tail.”

If Maltyren and his agents had not eliminated all the wizards who followed Mafred’s instructions, this great opportunity would not have come to Harang.

Harang has made a great achievement by not only arresting the warlock but also uncovering the truth about Archbishop Mafred, so he may be highly regarded within the family, but regardless of that, he can’t help but feel sorry.

In fact, Maltyren loathed the Kala’dun kin who unfairly exploited their efforts to build their reputation.

So, first of all, I apologized.

“haha… … .”

Maltyren simply responded with laughter. Harang didn’t understand why he was smiling, but Malti Wren was smiling with genuine joy.

‘… … ‘What kind of knight’s blood relative could think of a subordinate like that?’

Harang was too young to learn these techniques to appease, and he lived most of his life in the White Night Castle.

The only thing he knows how to do is swing a sword, but he is bewitching someone who has worked as an intelligence agent for many years with his advanced management skills?

That’s nonsense… … .

That image that Harang is seeing right now must be a true image that comes purely from her heart. That was the image of a true knight and king that made the knight’s heart cry.

“no.”

Maltyren smiled softly and lowered his head.

“I would rather express my gratitude. Didn’t you just solve a problem that had been bothering us for months? We were also sick of the smell of the sea.”

“what? still… … .”

“Perhaps we ended up missing the conclusive evidence that Archbishop Mafred was in collusion with the heretics. “Thanks to Mr. Master arresting me today just before I ran away at night, I was able to complete my mission safely.”

He glanced behind him.

Archbishop Mafred was being taken away under the direction of Pastor Ezakt. Most likely, he will be taken to the Pope under the authority of St. Benedict to be judged.

Maybe it won’t go smoothly.

“I never imagined that you would keep your word so clearly that you would repay the debt you owed me for receiving the information.”

“… … .”

I was a little embarrassed because I never thought he would say something like that, but somehow I felt better and smiled slightly.

“thank you for saying it like that.”

Harang looked at the ground, twisting his hair round and round, and then asked as if something suddenly occurred to him.

“Now that you think about it, what was Bishop Mafred’s purpose? Oh, is it difficult to talk?”

“no. “You have every right to know.”

Maltyren took out a photo from his arms and showed it to him. There was a strange jewel covered in red and black stains all over it.

“It’s an item called ‘blood stone.’ “It is an object created by sacrificing pure human life force.”

“What are you using it for? Summon a demon?”

“no. The demons sacrifice the sacrifice itself, but the bloodstone is purified to a much denser concentration. These are usually… … .”

His expression frowned slightly.

“It belongs to the axis of evil, and is mainly used when making contracts with ‘Evil Guardians’ who sided with the devil during the war against the devil in the distant past.”

“… … “It’s similar to Cheonggyeseok.”

Cheonggyeseok is a key item for a contract with a Guardian. It is said that if you find them hidden around the world, you can request a contract from the Guardian.

However, Cheonggyeseok is naturally occurring and is fundamentally different from artificially created bloodgyeseok.

“Are you giving up your position as archbishop to sign a contract with the Evil Guardian?”

“My ambition was higher than my ability. He would like to attain a higher position than Archbishop of Harana Canal, but with his faith and divine powers, he does not stand a chance, so he may have hoped to become a ‘Guardian Contractor.’”

The Guardian’s contractor could gain special and mystical powers in and of itself and become a symbol of power.

‘In return for signing a contract with the Guardian, I received the Dragon Eon, Morning Star Eye, Silver Heart, as well as a skill window… … .’

Of course, because Calantatis was the strongest Guardian, his abilities were much more special, and most Guardians are not this great.

“The contract with the Evil Guardian is not officially recognized as a ‘Guardian Contractor’, but because its power is so special and powerful, there are cases where it is secretly trained nationally or external contractors are hired.”

“It’s not that I don’t understand. “Caladern also lost the existence of Calanthatis and its national power was greatly shaken.”

“… … Unfortunately, that is the case.”

Maltyren was cautious when using the phrase that Caladern’s power had weakened, but Harang did not mind.

“doesn’t care. Later, when I become the head of the family, I will regain a prestige that no one from the Three Great Swords House, the Four Great Households, or the Five Great Magic Houses can challenge.”

It was a light remark, but at the same time it was a remark filled with strong will, so Maltyren unconsciously bowed and showed courtesy.

“So, what happened to Blood Gyesok?”

“that is… … Some have been found, but others have been lost. It seems highly likely that a mysterious organization that signed an agreement with Bishop Mafred came down and collected it.”

“Uhm, did I lose it?”

“sorry. We should have moved one step faster… … However, it is said that a separate chase team has set off based on the traces that remain, so they will be able to find it soon.”

“Then that’s a relief.”

He got up from his seat and stretched out. It was a pity that he lost his blood stone, but from that point on, it was none of Harang’s concern.

“Anyway, good job. Next time we run into each other at the mission, let’s help each other. Of course, while paying each other what we deserve.”

“Umm… … .”

Maltyren hesitated for a moment.

He looked embarrassed, but then his face changed to something he had decided to do.

“… … Confucius. “I’m sorry, but you don’t have to.”

“huh? This is sad. “You don’t like working with me?”

Harang looked a little embarrassed and said that, but Maltyren shook his head.

“That’s not it… … To begin with, I am loyal to my family, so the word ‘deal’ with my blood relatives was a truly shameful word for me. Now, I am deeply reflecting and regretting it.”

“No, it’s not that bad… … .”

“young master.”

Maltyren got down on one knee and quietly bowed his head.

“I would like to serve you as my ‘master.’ “I feel that you are the true next king of Caladern and the future.”

“… … .”

Harang, who had been staring at Maltyren for a moment, quietly stood up and placed his hand on his shoulder.

A knight who has not yet built up a reputation, is only at the level of 4-star swordsmanship, and has no foundation at all, but who swears loyalty to him even though he has only seen him once.

For Harang, it had quite a deep meaning.

“I will do my best to become an article that lives up to expectations. We ask well.”

Harang smiles while saying that.

Looking up at him, Maltyren unconsciously felt her heart beat.

The dawn breaks.

The sun shines on Harang’s face.

That smile somehow felt more brilliant and beautiful, and Maltyren’s soul was possessed.

It was truly an unbelievable magic that kept me drawn to it.
