“50 years.”
muttered McQueen.
“Fifty years have passed since I followed him down the mountain. There were so many things going on before the establishment of the cartel. Crawling in the darkness of the streets, enduring all sorts of humiliation and shame, there was not a day that I did not inhale the smell of blood. There were times when I drank the blood of the corpses I killed because there was no water to drink.”
The hollow eyes leave Lennok and begin to look out over the landscape.
“I have never regretted quitting penance. If you follow him, riches and glory are always with you. Every day was exhausting, but more than that, it was a rewarding moment. I didn’t even have time to reflect on each day.”
“… … .”
“But I was too old when I came down the mountain. By the time I arrived in the Balkans, I was already close to eighty. I was on a different starting line from the beginning than other bosses who are still young.”
McQueen looked down at his hands.
His own tattoos, wrinkled and worn away from the wind and waves.
It was a sign of aging that no human could escape.
“Heavenly luck reached him and he ascended to the level of Ascension and was granted the rest of his life, but that is now the limit. I had denied it until now, but I knew it in my heart. That the gap with the other guys is getting wider… … .”
McQueen’s sincere monologue made Lennox silently listen to his words.
Aging and death that high magicians face. What is the fear of facing the end of that long lifespan?
If it wasn’t for this place, there wouldn’t be many chances to hear it.
“My loyalty to the President has not changed even now. But unlike him, who still boasts of his prestige, I was becoming a useless part.”
“… … .”
McQueen’s face, which had been muttering calmly, changed to the most painful.
He murmurs without hesitation the agony and anxiety accumulated over a hundred years.
Just spitting out the fear that was piled up and forgotten directly into language.
The fear of facing his own ugliness was destroying his grave face.
A final monologue leaked from his mouth as he covered his face with one hand.
“Before I am abandoned by him, I would rather… … .”
“Did you think you would betray first?”
“well… … . Now I don’t know. What I really wanted and longed for… … . You are still pathetically searching for an answer.”
Looking at the self-helping McQueen, Lennox shook his head.
strong mental strength. Even superhumans of that level, with strong bodies and clear images, could not escape the fear of the passage of time.
As long as they have been complacent for decades, they could not stand the upcoming changes and collapsed.
“But, it’s over now.”
Crush the stone scepter in his hand, and at the same time as he powerfully slammed the ground,
Aaaaaaaaaaa!!
A fierce force began to erupt from his thick body.
At the same time, the tattoos all over his body crawl along his skin, drawing a unique flow.
The dozens of rings attached to the end of the pole jingled madly.
“Confessing my ugly inner self gave me strength. This will soon be a promise and a constraint to prove my own sincerity.”
“Is it magic… … ”
Confessing one’s inner self and motives, and using it to raise one’s strength through gias.
The conditions used by magicians who have reached the limit to raise their level to the limit, Parden McQueen improved and used it in a different way.
“Since this ordeal will also be part of the process of finding answers, I will seize the last opportunity given by the president and return to his side.”
Suddenly, the pain on McQueen’s face disappeared without a trace.
Only the tattoo on the bald head that glared at Lenok was spinning around the top of his head, endlessly reciting incomprehensible verses.
While making a hand sign with one hand, keep pounding the stone with the other hand on the ground.
Incomprehensible words poured out of McQueen’s mouth nonstop, but Lennok just watched them.
It is because he has passed through countless fronts that he can understand it.
After all, winning or losing is not decided by this alone.
For Lennok, the first battle with the 7th level high magician.
It was far more important to memorize every single movement he made.
Aaaah-!!
A strong ripple was created on the floor following the movement of the stone pole that hit the ground.
A disparate power wriggles in the ripples that spread through the air, eventually opening up even the space.
‘This… … .’
Lennok, who had many opportunities to encounter space-related abilities, knew it as soon as he saw it.
This is no ordinary spell or magic.
Rather, it was closer to a natural flow that does not go against the laws like the world’s order.
As if the door was opened through a legitimate contract.
[Announcement of Summoning Liberation]
[Arjumarta]
Doo doo doo doo!!
At that moment, behind McQueen’s back, a huge statue of ten meters tall opened the ripples and appeared on the roof of a skyscraper.
The statue, summoned from a height of 800m, clung like a spider to the wall of the building, and started staring at Lennok with an angry face, only sticking its face out on the roof.
McQueen howled in the midst of a violent storm.
“Raise your hand, Wizard!!!”
“… … .”
“I will start the takeover!!!”
* * *
“It started.”
Virgil nodded at the scene of the building seen across the screen.
At the same time as yellow ripples rose from the empty skyscraper, a huge stone statue appeared.
Iola muttered tiredly when she saw the stone statue that had her limbs slammed into the wall of the building in an instant and started to roar.
“CEO McQueen took that out from the start… … .”
The weapon possessed by Parden McQueen, a 7th-level sorcerer, was originally brought from the mountain range where he practiced asceticism.
Despite being stained with the world, his practice has always been his powerful weapon without fading.
In particular, the [Liberation Scheme] and [The Master’s Gate], which he uses as his main powers, are the traditional techniques of the high priests who practiced asceticism in the Evatra Mountains.
It specializes in exerting various influences in all weathers, encompassing both direct and indirect spells.
A powerful sorcerer and high-level martial arts user, McQueen boasts high-level combat skills in both long and short distances.
He is also good at applying ability enhancement to his allies and curses and restraints to his enemies.
If McQueen led his subordinates to the match as he originally intended, his fighting ability would have doubled.
What prevented such a situation and led the two to a one-on-one confrontation was Virgil’s active intervention, as expected by Lennok.
“I have to do this much to keep the promise I made with my class.”
Virgil grinned.
“Wouldn’t you have to look good for him to get your eyes back?”
“For now, the priority is that this work end well… … Things don’t look so good.”
Iola replied with a puzzled expression.
“Isn’t the fact that you took out that thing itself proof that McQueen’s condition is very good?”
McQueen is not only the overwhelmingly eldest among the bosses, but also by far the oldest sorcerer in the entire cartel.
An old man who has been active as a powerful 7th level magician for a long time, but has drawn a gentle downward curve for decades.
Because of this, rumors spread secretly among the executives that the ups and downs were getting worse every time he used a high-ranking ceremony while frequently experiencing difficulties in adjusting his condition.
It’s been more than 20 years since McQueen didn’t go to the scene directly, perhaps because he was conscious of such rumors.
Unexpectedly, from the beginning, he took out Arjumarta, a summoned beast that was no different from his name.
Arzumarta, who was summoned with legitimate rights through a contract with the existence of the other world through the main world gate and a liberation ceremony immediately afterward, was the most powerful magical aid among McQueen’s summoning techniques, and was no different from a summoned beast that symbolized the apocalypse in its heyday.
Iola also vividly remembers its majesty when she joined the God Cartel.
she said with a worried expression.
“If McQueen wins the battle with Ban, it will be a headache in many ways. It is estimated that the artifacts and relics that Van owns are also quite valuable, and there is a high possibility that McQueen will absorb his sphere of influence entirely.”
The reason why Virgil moved so aggressively was because he needed to use his hands to get McQueen’s downfall.
I thought there was no future without mercilessly cutting out the renegades who betrayed the organization.
However, Oliviera somehow gave McQueen a chance to cover her mistakes.
The boomerang might not have stopped just at Virgil.
“Even though he doesn’t have much time left, with the president’s help… … .”
“It’s fine not to worry about that. The president didn’t seem to be very interested in their battle today.”
“… … Does that mean that the win or loss has already been decided?”
“well… … . It seemed you didn’t want to waste any more time than that.”
Virgil replied.
“Actually, it wouldn’t mean much for us to watch this. McQueen’s magnetic field is specialized in hiding herself from outside eyes more than anything else… … You probably won’t see anything when the battle heats up.”
“… … .”
“Let’s enjoy it in moderation and let it go. Because this may be the last time I see Arjumarta.”
Virgil’s eyes were cold as he said that.
“At least I think the odds are much higher that way.”
Just as Virgil was muttering that, someone suddenly appeared in front of Jenny’s bar.
‘She’ slowly walked up the stairs and came down to the bar, flapping her colorful long robe, and slowly raised her gaze.
Jenny, who was shaking a shaker in the corner of the bar, met her eyes and smiled softly.
[We barely had time to talk.]
Even as Lennok crosses between life and death, the world is constantly in motion.
Another relationship was about to come to an end at this place today.
* * *
Doo doo doo!!
Dozens of beams of light across the roof of the building hit Lennok as they were.
The fragments of the shield that Lennok rotated all at once ran in all directions, bouncing the rays with time difference,
It pierced through the floor of the roof of the building and penetrated straight through.
Geeeeeeeeing!!
McQueen’s hands are unstoppable even as the skyscraper that the cartel has managed so hard is starting to be destroyed.
At the same time as the stone statue with its limbs embedded in the wall of the building leaned over, the roof of the skyscraper where the two magicians were standing shook greatly, and Lennok stumbled.
McQueen, who did not miss the chance, shook the stone scepter, and the mana that fell in line with the movement turned into dozens of arrows of the force field.
At the same time, the statue grabbed the arrows of the force field with one hand and swung them around, and a blurry whirlpool rained down on Lennok like fireworks.
Kwagwagwagwa!!
Part of the roof of the building collapses in an instant due to its powerful destructive power, and debris begins to fall down.
In the pouring bombardment, only Lennok’s shield moved forward frantically.
“… … .”
Behind him, Lennok, who had pulled out a cigarette, was looking up at McQueen with a sharp gaze.
‘It’s not just a summoned beast.’
Basically, wizards, especially those summoned using summoning techniques, are often used to compensate for the magician’s most fatal flaw.
This is because magicians who are devoted to the training and penance of magic are relatively weak or lack talent in close combat even with powerful magical powers, and it is common to fill the lack of close combat and avant-garde through summoned beasts.
However, instead of fighting with her summoned beasts, McQueen was standing in front of Arjumarta and wielding the stone statue like a baton.
Conversely, the mass attack and magic auxiliary ability released while the huge stone statue was moving continued to keep Lennok in check while constantly pouring firepower.
‘Did you call a summoned beast to assist with the spell because you are confident in close combat? No, I don’t think it’s that simple. Doesn’t look like he has any fighting skills… … .’
interesting way.
Lennox watched without thinking about counterattacking McQueen’s relentless bombardment.
Doo doo doo doo!!!
Dozens of beams and barrages from the sky, as well as unharmed masses rained down on Lennok at the same time, but Lennok’s shield moved first.
In front of Lennok’s eyes, the shields split into dozens of pieces simultaneously compressing and rotating, lowering the area under attack, lowering the angle at the exact moment, deflecting and deflecting all attacks.
Kagagak!!
“… … !!”
Lennok laughed when he confirmed that McQueen’s mouth was twitching as he chanted the ceremony with all his might.
The shield Lennok uses is still the same as the common magic he used for the first time, and the number of overlaps is only five.
There was only one reason why Lennok had not improved his shield magic until now, despite the strength of Girard’s full-strength attack.
This was because the capacity of the shield magic was reduced to such an extent that it was almost integrated with Lennok’s consciousness.
Shield magic is very useful, but on the contrary, it requires an enormous amount of mana every time you increase the strength.
The more mana is invested, the heavier the magic capacity, and the harder it is for Lennox to handle.
From Lennok’s point of view, who freely handles the distribution and concentration of the shield, as well as compression and rotation, it was much more efficient to shed the impact while maintaining the appropriate strength.
The important thing is not to completely block the attack, but to create a momentary time for Lennok to respond.
Even though he had no mobility at all, Lennok’s fighting style, which didn’t rely on the magic of a shield, was bizarre.
No one could say it was wrong.
‘I’ve roughly figured out the pattern.’
Long-distance bombardment is the most efficient means of attack that a magician can use, but on the contrary, because of that, the number of spells that can be used is standardized for each magician.
I don’t know if the battle gets a little more intense, but in the current situation, it won’t be easy to maintain more than this.
After completing the calculation, Lennok immediately began to roll his head.
‘Considering the tools we have… … . I can end the game inside five times.’
“good.”
Woooooooooooooo!!
Lennok, who had raised his mana, raised his left hand in an instant.
Dozens of thick currents that flowed from between the five elongated fingers were twisted and tied in an instant and turned into a giant thunderbolt spear as it rotated.
Blitz-type unique magic properties change
[Naroe Murder]
Pajijijijijik!!!
The blue-light changgeuk that floated up on his left forearm emitted light as it swirled in the air.
In that brief moment, the tip of the spear blade drew a perfect spiral, seeing how strongly it rotated after holding the electric shock.
As McQueen flinched, Lennok let go of his spear.
You don’t even have to throw it. According to Lennok’s will, the bolts fired became a flash of light and rushed towards the place where McQueen was.
Aaaaaang!!
A speed that transcends the cognitive gap. But McQueen did not escape.
I watched Lennok parry all of his attacks from the front.
In addition, if you evade here, those who get hit by that lightning bolt become your summons.
“Huh… … .!!”
McQueen, who made a handshake in an instant, slammed the ground with a stone.
[Inner Sea Gate]
Cuckoo Cuckoo!!!
Like a giant mouth rising from the ground, the summoned arched door blocked Lennok’s light.
Lennok looked at it and murmured.
“You should have avoided it.”
The spear blades of the arrowheads, twisted to the limit, rip open the thick iron walls of the inner sea gate and burrow into the interior.
Kagagakak!!
Just as when destroying a shield, it twists and shatters power from the inside, the siege magic most optimized for breaking through barriers and tearing flesh.
It is more like a battering ram rather than a spear.
The spear of the brain that broke through the inner sea gate at once rushed towards McQueen.
Kwaaaaang!!
The strong arms of the stone statue standing behind him grabbed the bolts and twisted them.
Ddu-du-dududuk!!
“Ugh… … .”
McQueen’s body was safe by a narrow car, but the cost was considerable.
The electric light that pierced Arzumartha’s left arm passed through the back of the statue’s shoulder, and a huge shockwave exploded.
TOOOOONG!!
The thunderbolt flowers blooming over the blue sky are shattered and disappear in the cold wind.
McQueen’s face hardened in an instant at the firepower beyond common sense.
At first glance, it looks like they exchanged fierce battles, but the reality is different.
All of McQueen’s attempts so far did not work, and on the contrary, the first spell Lennok threw blew off the statue’s left arm.
The rooftop of a skyscraper.
Even on an unfavorable battlefield surrounded by giant summoned beasts with limited space to escape, Lennok saw right through to the core.
If the firepower is the same, in some ways the McQueen side, which has a wider area of attack, is rather impossible to avoid.
Lennok looked up at McQueen and asked.
“Don’t you think it’s too cramped for the stage you prepared?”
“… … .”
McQueen flinched and averted his gaze at that intense gaze with bright blue eyes.
“The skirmish is over. If you really want to live and find the answer, you’ll have to do your best from now on.”
At the same time as he said that, Lennok’s hands hung down and he quickly began to sign.
