Archmage Transcending Through Regression - Chapter 23

Episode 23

What is lacking in me at this point.

Enlightenment and knowledge of the 9th circle.

As a great mage, there are quite a few materials needed.

The problem is mana.

Total amount of absolute mana.

It is true that the autonomous circulation system is efficient in accumulating mana in many ways, but the limits of the ‘circle’ itself cannot be exceeded.

The fact that I am currently in the 5th circle does not change.

It’s not like the circle just pops up all at once.

The great mage’s knowledge could somehow reduce that time, but in the end, that was the best.

Then I had to come up with an additional method.

Even if it’s not perfect, it’s a way to somehow close the gap with the pre-regression.

[Am I insane?!]

Set hurriedly shouted.

[Use ‘Storm’ to cycle your mana? stop right now! If I give up even now, it will only end with a little internal injury!]

No, that can’t be the case.

I shook my head.

Once you put this much power into your body, it will never end easily.

It’s not a new thing for nothing.

The potential of ‘Storm’ is beyond imagination.

I felt that kind of power in the imitation before returning, but I wonder if the real thing is amazing.

‘Ah, it’s coming.’

I felt a mighty force swirling inside me.

If even a little bit of mana control was lost, it would be immediately swept away by that power and the internal organs could become rags.

“Kuh… … !”

For an instant, an excruciating pain erupted throughout her body, but it was only for a very short time.

‘Okay. I have to pay everything.’

A theory created in the process of analyzing new objects before regression.

Some might call it crazy, but I was sure.

this will definitely work

It’s a skill worth trying out.

The flow of mana accelerated by the storm calmed down.

It was a flow that wouldn’t be strange even if I was swept away, but I was someone.

The Great Mage of the 9th Circle.

He is a talented person who stood at the forefront of the battle against the Demon God before returning.

This is worth doing.

[Uh uh… … ?!]

Slowly, the storm inside my body began to adapt to my intention.

[How can you soothe mana so easily… … .]

That’s because I have knowledge.

Information about divine objects that could not exist in the first place.

After helplessly losing the ‘storm’, I tried to figure out information about the new item by collecting all kinds of data.

The common characteristics of the information and divine beings obtained while observing the storm in the past.

And I realized

‘God can be controlled.’

Even if this is part of the Old God and holds unfathomable power.

It was originally designed to be handled by the right person.

Ugh.

Slowly, the storm resonated with mana and began to flow.

The preparations are now complete.

Now it’s time to actually implement the ‘theory’ I had set up before the regression.

‘< circle expansion >.’

Then the inner circle began to spin rapidly.

The mana fused with the storm is very brief, but it becomes possible to create a temporary circle.

Yes Temporary Circle.

Exactly how many circles you can make remains to be seen.

‘Let’s start with the 6th circle first.’

Originally, it was a magic that could not be dared to be used at the present, which is the 5th circle.

But now… … .

“Fire field.”

Bright red flames covered the area.

Seeing this, Set was startled and shouted.

[Circle 6?! Wait how do you do 6 circles at your age… … !]

‘There is no problem so far.’

If so, next step.

Seeing the formula I formed, Set widened his eyes and shouted.

[Circle 7 this time?! quit! Even if I forcefully try magic beyond my ability, I can’t succeed… … !]

“Gravity.”

Circle 7 gravity magic.

At that moment, the stones scattered around began to rise at my will.

[…] … Do you have it?]

Set looked at me in disbelief.

[How on earth… … .]

‘Is it possible to reach the 7th circle? Then the next step… … ‘

Finally, the 8th circle.

First of all, it was only two steps that were verified before regression, but it was worth a try.

but.

sticky.

I immediately stopped my hand at the pain I felt near my heart.

‘… … Is the next step impossible?’

It was according to the theory established before the regression.

There are two temporary circles that can be created.

How long can you keep… … .

‘About five minutes. It also requires a few days of rest.’

Time can never be called long, but considering its value, time cannot be called short.

‘Good.’

I definitely got what could be called a hidden card.

It’s a method of artificially rotating the circle, so I can’t use it often, but what about it? Anyway, being able to write is important.

It was then.

[you… … .]

Set said, glaring at me.

[You’re not human?]

“What are you talking about all of a sudden? There is no human being as pure as me.”

[Aren’t you saying this because it’s a growth rate that’s not allowed for such an innocent human?]

Set continued.

[There are only two beings who do such absurd things. One is a dragon in human clothing, or a damn reptile. or… … .]

“Half Blood.”

I took her word for it.

“You probably want to talk about beings with the blood of demons or gods.”

[…] … You know it well.]

Such an existence certainly exists.

In fact, as the world before the return became chaotic, that ‘half blood’ sometimes appeared.

“If that’s the case, just say no. I am human.”

[…] … Really?]

“I ask the other way around. A being like you would of course know that I am human, but why am I doing this?”

[I know, that’s what I’m doing.]

She continued, looking at me with complicated eyes.

[Because of course, the child who looks like a human doesn’t look like a human.]

“… … .”

Anyway, that’s why I don’t like quick-witted guys.

But I can’t say that I went against time.

“Maybe it’s because of our family lineage. It was said a long time ago that the ancestors were not human.”

[Hmm Shizora… … .]

“I haven’t checked the details. I don’t even feel the need to check. Even if it’s not that, there’s a lot of work to do.”

[It’s blood. Come to think of it… … .]

Set looked at me intrigued and smiled.

[What good. Huhu, if that’s the case, I won’t ask any more questions.]

“Looks like you’re thinking useless thoughts.”

[No, that’s not it.]

Set shrugged.

[It’s just what you asked for. Yes, according to what you said, it could be.]

It seemed like a useless misunderstanding, but I decided to skip it.

good is good

[Okay then, what else do you need my help for? If it’s not there, I’m thinking of going in and resting.]

“It’s helpful… … ah.”

At that moment, Set remembered something that could help.

“It’s a storm. Even if I became the owner, can you use it to some extent?”

[It’s possible if you allow it.]

“Then, I guess I can defend against minor attacks when needed.”

[What are you looking at me for?]

Set said with a snort.

[It’s nothing more than defending against 4-circle attacks.]

“Hmm… … ”

said Set to my response.

[I’ll help you if you need it.]

Set opened his chest with his hands on his hips.

“Are you okay?”

[of course! Even after seeing this, I was called ‘the manager of the iron wall’!]

I first thought that the declaration of the small set was cute rather than trustworthy.

[Ahem!]

Let’s not say that.

* * *

Time passed quickly.

“This is enough.”

one week.

This is the amount of time it took for Lian to fully master the Mullière training method. Like a talented guy, he learned very quickly.

“Haha, is this the perfect Mulière training method!”

Rian swung his sword around and couldn’t hide his excitement.

“Performance sure.”

“I’m glad you’re satisfied.”

A vivid aura on the sword.

At that level, it wouldn’t be unreasonable to step into the realm of a Master within the next few years.

No.

Wasn’t he the guy who missed the right time to grow and rose to the brink of grand master thanks to his innate talent and mad efforts?

“Oh, come to think of it, what are you going to do with the temple?”

“… … hmm?”

“It is a prophecy. In the first place, what you put up as a condition for the training method was to participate in the temple’s ‘recruitment of warriors’.”

“Oh that.”

forgot for a while

Because of the fact that he obtained the first god, he had no time to worry about it.

‘Cassandra.’

A girl who made a prophecy that no one believed.

Before heading to the temple, you will need to check on her whereabouts.

‘How to find?’

If nothing else, Cassandra’s whereabouts were unknown even before returning.

She just disappeared.

You don’t even know if you’re dead or alive. Of course, even at this point in time.

If you ask through the information guild, can you get some clues?

when I was thinking like that.

“young master!”

“huh? What is it all of a sudden?”

Wasn’t a knight running toward Lian’s panting?

The knight came up to Lian’s side and looked in my direction, blurring his words.

“I feel sorry for Prince Mikhail, but… … ”

“No, what are you paying attention to?”

Lian looked at the knight with a bewildered expression. The knight hesitated for a moment, then spoke.

“Because that guest came, I told the young master… … ”

“Guest… … ? No, there is a guest who will come to me at this time.”

“That is… … ”

The article looked at me and couldn’t speak properly.

Looking at the figure, I guessed who it was.

“It’s Eileen.”

“Uh how… … yes yes! It is as you say!”

I can’t help but keep an eye on it

The scandal between Eileen and I was quite famous.

Ryan asked with a puzzled expression.

“Princess Lindel? No, why is that woman suddenly here? I didn’t even announce my intention to visit first.”

“They just asked me to call the young master. To be honest, I haven’t been contacted in advance, so I can ignore it, but… … “

It is not that there is nothing to expect.

‘Considering her purpose, it must be an opportunity that is hard to miss.’

“Tsk what are you going to do?”

Ryan looked at me with a troubled expression.

“What should I do?”

I still had something to check, but it worked fine.

“I will go too.”

* * *

“Whoa.”

Eileen sighed as she sat on the chair in the drawing room.

For her, this was by no means trivial.

‘It’s not big either.’

Her family could be said to be the pinnacle of the imperial sword family.

Power and history… … .

Of course, there is nothing to compare with those things.

But the reason she came here is simple.

‘In order to become a knight, I need to prove it to my father.’

It cannot be said that he was not responsible for his work with the family of the Marquis of Walpurgis this time.

To be honest,

it was a mistake that I couldn’t even lift my head up.

It’s as if the entire Lindell family was humiliated because of him alone.

-Walpurgis will not tell you what to do with the fact that you have an aura.

It’s not like it’s already been caught.

He said he would have to pay the price, but the matter with her was settled anyway.

and.

-So do whatever you want. I won’t stop you.

worth as a knight.

Prove it.

She knew she had a lot of talent.

I also knew that there were not many people my age to deal with.

If so, the opponent who can prove that ‘value’ is fixed.

‘Lian Paslov.’

Wouldn’t it be possible to prove one’s worth if one could defeat the next-generation swordsman?

I want to check it myself.

his talent as a knight.

Soon

the door to the living room opened.

She got up to greet Lian.

And when I looked up, the face I saw was

“Hello?”

“… … Mikhail?”

She pointed at the guy who appeared in front of me, shaking her fingertips.

Mikhail Walpurgis.

“Oh it’s me.”

“Why the hell are you out here?!”

Why the hell!

Great mage who transcends by regression
