Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 401

What is an order chant?

In theory, it’s simple. It refers to the process of making magic casting a little easier and manifesting by making the blueprint of the magic you want to manifest as a language.

Even making orders out of your mouth is part of that process. It is the same reason that it is easier to understand and quicker to show an apple and say that it is an apple than to explain that it is a fruit that is red, spherical, and sweet and sour when chewed.

Since it is fulfilling it to oneself, if you insist on it, incantation can be said to be the ultimate self-talk.

As a result, if the chanting is unclear due to the lack of vocabulary, you have to fill in the missing parts through your own mana or calculation ability, which is an element other than the spell.

Conversely, it means that if you have abundant knowledge and vocabulary and can cast spells efficiently, it means that it becomes easier to use magic with less effort and cost, so naturally wizards live with all kinds of books and pursue knowledge.

It’s a matter of course, but simply spitting out the words doesn’t activate the magic. If that were the case, the world would have been doubly messed up now. It is only when you learn a separate process to use magic based on theory that you can use magic, and that is why wizards can exist as a job.

Then, what about Muyoungchang?

Since chanting makes the process of casting spells more ‘easier’, if you don’t feel any difficulty in the process, chanting without chanting is possible. However, there is a reason why martial arts are treated as a domain of talent and considered inefficient at the same time in the world.

There is a wall that is huge enough to overcome the difference between memorization and writing, so the main characters in the novels I read in my previous life can shoot magic without memorizing a single spell or pour out great magic with a single spell here is also the realm of fantasy. am. Even the magical geniuses that existed in history couldn’t do that. Even if it has reached a similar area.

However, it seems that the Ragnis in front of me right now is on a similar line with those few geniuses.

“That’s absurd.”

If the chant is fast, mana is gathered quickly, and if it is slow, mana is gathered slowly. That’s why wizards have no choice but to bet their life and death on fast and accurate chanting.

However, her prowess was not at that level. To my eyes when I used the Magic City, the magic that gathered in an instant made Ragnis shine like a plumber with a mustache who ate a superstar in an instant.

“Isn’t that cheating?”

In the blink of an eye, the flames soared from the flag, not only the spear, but also gently wrapped around her whole body, taking on a shape suggesting that the buff had been applied at a glance. If all spellcasting is like that, you can’t stop casting spells. Judging from the fact that magic started from the spear, it was highly likely that it was the power of magic tools, but it was not a situation that could be certain.

Ragnis answered with a look full of disbelief at the lightly thrown joke, bursting into laughter at the absurdity of my life of encountering a different situation that I had never experienced before.

“I don’t think you should hear it.”

Then he spurred on the floor and ran. Lowering his posture and protecting his upper body with a shield, he charged forward with a burning flag fluttering, as if to prove that he had not received the training in vain, he was solid and shimmered in the remnants of magical power that scattered in all directions like sparks from a thruster. The spear blade was much faster than expected.

“indeed.”

It’s not a magic warrior or a magic knight, but there was a reason why it was classified as a battle mage.

Enduring the exclamation that almost popped out on its own, aiming for the neck without hesitation and pushing the incoming stab with the blade of the axe, a small explosion occurred at the same time as the collision.

Fain! The explosion was not so lethal to weapons or armor, but it would have been a different story if it had torn through the skin. When I wondered why he was aiming for the neck, which had a small range, rather than the torso, it was not a thoughtless attack.

It was a fairly plausible handshake. Demons are also human, so if they are attacked and their wounds burst, their morale will surely decrease.

“It’s good that you don’t hesitate.”

Ragnis seemed to be doing everything in his power, as if he had trampled on the clichés of having someone in his hand because he was an acquaintance. Up to that point, it was a passing score, so I followed the spear that returned after failing to stab it and followed the inside to see how she handled it.

“Suck!”

Don’t close your eyes or be surprised. His gaze was so sharp that I wondered if it was the Ragnis I knew.

It’s a face, so I’m relentless.

-Kang!

Her shield flew right into my face, but I could guess where she was aiming from her line of sight, so I raised the axe handle and easily blocked it. Thanks to this, instead of getting farther away, we got closer, and before Ragnis could deal with anything else, I pushed her as hard as I could from bottom to top with the ax handle.

-Tuong!

“Ehh?!”

Kendo’s nose was similar to fighting, but the result was as serious as that of an adult and a child colliding. Even though Ragnis didn’t jump backwards on purpose, he flew up into the air almost as tall as me, and the poisonous air from earlier was genuinely embarrassed with his eyes wide open.

“Gap.”

He swings an ax at her. It was Ragnis who was floating in the air, not me, so he was quick to adjust his posture and swing. Even though it looked dangerous at first glance, it was an attempted attack because I had the confidence to stop it as soon as it touched the breastplate.

Ragnis’ eyes, which were staring straight at my ax falling neatly as if splitting firewood, suddenly glowed blue when the ax blade touched her breastplate.

Suddenly, Ragnis dispersed like mist.

And suddenly, I felt a presence from behind.

-Piik!

‘how?’ The question passed by, but it wasn’t important right now, so I blew a whistle and ejected the needle.

I wish I had eyes on the back of my head, but unfortunately, since there are only two in front, I predicted the position of the shield based on the charge Ragnis had just shown me, and then fired the needle without hesitation.

Almost at the same time, without hesitation, I let go of my hand holding the axe, brought it to my waist, drew my sword, turned my entire body to a halting posture, and saw a stunned Ragnis and the sight of the needle bouncing off her shield.

Actually, it was me who wanted to be surprised. There wasn’t even a flash this time. Since it scattered like a hazy fog right in front of my eyes without any sign, I want to ask if this is real magic.

Am I missing something? For now, blocking the next attack from Ragnis, who hesitated for a moment, was the priority, but I couldn’t help but worry about it.

“Really nonsense!”

As Ragnis shouted in displeasure, flames erupted from the spear again. And the flashes that follow.

But this time, instead of rushing, he swung the flames like a flamethrower. Not just fire, but a menacing flame that seemed to stick to it.

“Anyway, magic…”

Thinking that magic that can’t be blocked is much more difficult than expected, I activated the protective magic of the gauntlet.

◈

Even though I moved properly and controlled my breathing, I quickly became short of breath.

What had been calmly engaged in sparring until just now was completely turned upside down by a sudden projectile. Aren’t there eyes on the back too?

“Whoa!”

Didn’t do any checks. Whether it was stabbing or swinging her shield, she mobilized all of her body strength to withstand the moment Eldmia moved the ax handle to push herself away.

Even so, his body flew off and he almost got hit by an axe. If it weren’t for the spleen, the sparring would have ended. It wasn’t that he intended to win, but the fact that he had been swung helplessly like this made Ragnis almost weep. Even so, the reason she was able to burn her fighting spirit without crying was because her opponent was Eldmia.

‘Look at me chasing you.’

This position was created because she wanted it. In the first place, it was decided that if she moved to regain the Marquis of Levien, Radnell Vandes would follow suit. And as long as he was by my side, it didn’t matter much whether I lacked the ability to protect myself or not.

But Ragnis didn’t want that. That’s why I can’t follow Eldmia.

So he trained and wanted to show Eldmia the results of his hard work in the capital.

‘It’s the magic and training I learned while being swayed by all kinds of work and politics, but I can still do it this far. Don’t you think there’s a possibility if you can train properly?’

Eldmia rushes through the burning flames. I wondered what the heck he was going through, but seeing that the barrier was activated in the gauntlet he had received as a gift from the empire, I could understand it.

He was a man who unknowingly collected all sorts of magic tools. Seeing that there was no helmet on the armor that Esmuer had gifted, it was clear that the earrings added upon returning from the crazy journey from the West had some unknown function.

But there was no direct way to verify that.

Just because you like someone doesn’t mean you can’t attack someone’s face. She just lacked the ability to keep up with Eldmia’s movement when she changed her weapon from an ax to a sword.

Shooting fire, erecting walls and striking electric shocks were all futile. In fact, the fight was already over the moment the surprise attack through space movement failed. All she could do was hold back and delay the defeat, but Ragnis kept a smile on his face as the fight dragged on.

‘I’m not going to be a princess on top of the tower.’

It was different from the powerless past. It’s amazing that you can do this yourself. I felt a sense of accomplishment as I felt like I was proving that the efforts I had made so far were not in vain.

Of course, that pleasure didn’t last long. When he built a wall a second time to block Eldmia’s approach, he rammed the earthen wall with his shoulder and shattered it.

Unlike her, who was flushed and out of breath even after moving so hard, Eldmia’s breathing was not disturbed. Even the performance of the protective magic contained in the gauntlet was so good that it seemed that not a single hem of his clothes had been properly singed.

But Ragnis could be sure that he had passed.

“Moo Young-chang, it’s cumbersome.”

Very cumbersome.

Looking at Eldmia who smiled while saying that, Ragnis also opened his mouth in satisfaction.

“I can stand by your side and fight. With a little more training.”

“…I think so. She was a very scary girl.”

Ragnis laughed out loud at Eldmia’s reply as he looked around the messy arena.
