EPISODE.141
Crimson jewel eyes shining like rubies cover the entire area.
Whoo oh oh-.
A gust of wind blew her black hair along with the hem of her robe.
Could it be because he spent months lying in bed after he collapsed?
It looks like her hair has grown a lot more than before.
That wasn’t the only thing that changed.
Whatever had happened, her eyes and expressions were more mature than before.
What was even more surprising was the change in horsepower.
8 circle master.
There is no way that the amount of magical energy they possess in their bodies, which have transcended human limits, is small.
The endless magical power reminiscent of the great sea was also one of the reasons why they were called great wizards.
‘But this…’
Others don’t know, but the strong people who have risen to the level of superhumans can clearly see it.
The presence of magical powers swirling around Russell.
Warm magic, fundamentally different from cultists, creates a vortex as it revolves around Russell.
The pressure that weighed heavily on all sides was due to that.
Lumps of magical power of different sizes and brightness shine as brilliantly as stars or planets.
Amelia Merwin, who had been watching the scene as if possessed, grinned.
“Universe…”
It was not the Great Sea, but a small, unfolding microcosm itself.
After muttering unconsciously, he wrapped his arms around my shoulders.
It is a magical power that brings chills and tremors just by facing them.
It’s not violent or cold, but it’s magic that gives you a sense of intimidation by itself.
Vision, hearing, smell, touch, etc…
All the senses that flowed through the five senses told me that the young man was Russell, but her reason could not easily affirm that fact.
The young man in front of him was a completely different person from the Russell he had known.
The experience she had accumulated and her sixth sense, which she had built up as a wizard, said so.
It was the same for others too.
I thought it was Russell for the first time until the space became distorted, but as soon as I met him, I felt my whole body screaming.
A feeling similar to the first time I met Vlad Draculea, a cultist born from an egg.
“Transcendence.”
Hemingway murmured involuntarily at that sensation.
“That guy has finally reached that level.”
“Help.”
Daria, who soon calmed the commotion, responded with a triumphant expression.
“I said One disciple asked well.”
“joy.”
Maybe it’s because it’s less worrying.
“To think that the youngest student would be so scared to be okay.”
Seeing Daria look the same as before, Hemingway bluntly snorts and continues.
“Well…but I’m glad. Thanks to that, the old woman also found energy.”
Daria giggled, probably feeling Hemingway’s concern for her.
Then a loud cry broke out.
“Priests!”
“Hahahahahaha! After all, you are the youngest priest! I knew you would overcome this time too!”
The cry of Russell’s two brothers-in-law, Hubert and Vermillion.
Tsutsutsutsutsut-.
The space that had last collapsed as Russell passed through returned to its original position, and he opened his mouth with a shy expression.
“It’s a little late.”
Even though he had risen to a level that no one had achieved since the age of myth as a transcendental person, his embarrassed expression was no different from before.
“Clap.”
Seeing that, Daria was about to laugh in the same voice as before.
【Were you alive? Solvent.]
Intense growl.
It was a voice imbued with dark magic that was so intense that it made my skin tingle.
Hearing that voice, Russell, who had climbed atop Saturn’s walls, glared at the center of the monster’s army.
──── Gul-leok Gul-leok.
The darkness wriggles like slime and vomits out the man in black rags.
Black hair just like you.
The only difference is the color of the eyes. Before leaving the divine realm, the request from the savior of the other world came to mind.
-Perhaps that ugly bastard will use my body as a shell to resurrect.
-He was once my disciple, but he chose to go down the wrong path. Don’t use your mind to say that it’s my body or my disciple and destroy it completely.
‘That’s the ancestor’s body.’
I was going to do as I was told, but seeing the ancestor’s body being used in such a way made me feel bad for nothing.
That’s why Russell frowned slightly, and in the meantime, the guy who had risen a few meters into the air opened his mouth while making eye contact with Russell.
[To be able to directly kill the guy who brought me shame. rather it went well I’ll take this opportunity to cut it out without leaving a single piece of flesh or bone…]
I opened my mouth.
“Chong-al-chong-al. Don’t you think the tongue is too long for an old man who has lived for thousands of years since the age of mythology?”
But first, Russell cut him off.
【…?!】
“To put it in a nutshell, we’re going to fight again. wait for now Because I haven’t finished my work yet.”
He reached out his hand without waiting for an answer. Along with magical power, a certain pattern appeared on the back of Russell’s hand.
A pattern of four overlapping circles of different colors.
Hwaaak-!
As the light pours out along the pattern, the four elements that make up the world begin to fluctuate greatly.
fire and water.
The earth and the wind come together to form their own forms.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Amphitrite, the water spirit king.
Agni, the fire spirit king.
Zephyrus, the spirit of the wind.
Demetel, the spirit king of the earth.
Zephyrus opened his mouth as the incarnations of the spirit king summoned to the material world carefully opened their eyes.
“My benefactor of the spirit realm. According to my promise to you, I have come to help you.”
The wind around me howls and howls fiercely.
“So what do you want? Any help would be appreciated. solvent?”
The shrill voice is Amphitrite.
The help of the spirit kings, the price he received for helping the spirit realm the day before. Russell decided to use that price in this battle.
“What I want is…”
said Russell, who paused for a moment, in a determined voice.
“The annihilation of my enemies.”
Demetel answers in a benevolent voice.
“You are the benefactor of the spirit realm. I will accept your request.”
The four elements that make up the world.
It was the moment when those incarnations participated in a war that might be their last.
.
.
The spirit kings joined the friendly camp.
Among them, Amphitrite looked around and headed to Hemingway’s side.
“hey. old human. Would you like to sign a temporary contract with me?”
Whatever the case may be, they are the incarnations of the Spirit King. Individual strength is also excellent, but in order to exert power beyond the limit in the material world, which is bound by the laws of the world, a contractor was needed.
“Are you talking to me?”
In that sense, Hemingway was the optimal target for a temporary contract.
“okay. What did you hear?”
Amphitrite snapped in a low voice.
In the meantime, Daria also made a temporary contract with Agni, who came to visit her, and the other two spirit kings were also in the process of finding their respective contract partners.
Zephyrus, the personification of the wind, went to Amelia Merwin, and Demetel, the personification of the earth, to Io.
“haha. As I live, I never thought the day would come when I signed a contract with the spirit… and the incarnation of the spirit king.”
Although it is a temporary contract, it is an undeniable fact that it is a special experience as a wizard.
Hemingway said with a laugh.
contract with it.
“good. Then let’s make a deal. Temporary, of course.”
Along with Amphitrite’s words, you can feel the fullness of moisture spreading throughout your body.
The healing power of water quickly restored the body and washed away fatigue.
Right next to him, Daria, who had made a contract with Agni, grunted and boasted.
“This inspiration. Isn’t it all thanks to my discipleship?”
Maybe it’s because the youngest disciple came back intact and became even stronger than before.
Hemingway responded, hiding his relief at the improved appearance of her.
“joy. It’s just that the grandmother’s youngest pupil was too good. Unlike my disciple, there is nothing lacking in anything.”
then added.
“Still, thanks to you, it saved me a lot of time…”
It is unknown what kind of strategy was used, but the number increased as the second subjugation forces sent from each country quickly joined.
In addition to that, until Muyaho and Io, who had fallen with the spirit kings and Russell, participated in the battle.
Although they were still inferior to the monsters in numbers, in terms of the concept of power exchange rate, they were rather ahead of them several times in terms of quality.
Hemingway, who had been blurting his words, suddenly raised his eyes wide.
“That that that that that…?!”
His whole body trembled as he stretched out his fingers as if speechless and choked.
It’s a look that doesn’t fit him normally.
It was that much of a shock.
The direction his outstretched fingers were pointing.
Russell, who had descended from the wall at the end, was approaching the army of monsters.
.
.
“He’s the king of spirits…”
Jerk-jerk-.
When Russell stepped forward, Vlad Draculea also stepped forward, killing a group of monsters.
Except for the eye color, they look almost identical.
“You’ve been hiding some pretty interesting numbers.”
It was to the point where it looked like two twins approaching each other with keen hostility.
“But you know what? It is the battle of the generals, not the soldiers, that determines the direction of this battle.”
Just like that.
The reason why he summoned the Spirit King was to make up for the lack of numbers and minimize the damage to his allies.
Russell knew very well that in the end, the outcome of the fight between himself and the bastard would end the war.
“Congratulations on reaching the level of a transcendentalist…but only a few days at most.”
Vlad knew that Russell had risen to the same rank as himself.
However, he never thought that he would lose.
“You must still be immature and awkward when it comes to handling power.”
Even if he was the same transcendentalist, he himself had risen to this level a long time ago.
Both in the way of pouring out magic and in the way of mana handling.
There is bound to be a difference.
That’s what I was thinking.
“Standing in front of me nonetheless. I know that hasty courage can be reckless… but I commend that spirit—.”
“Vlad Dracoulea.”
“?!”
Displeasure and doubt floated across Vlad’s face at the sound of Russell’s voice interrupting him.
Have you ever introduced your name to him?
Before the question mark at the end of those words disappeared, Russell’s next words followed.
“You talk too much.”
They had fought once before, but it was their first encounter since each of them had risen to the level of transcendentalists.
It could be said that those who escaped the limits of humans and took off the womb of a mortal and entered the transcendental world were a completely different species from before.
If that’s the case, you should forget about the previous fights and think of this fight as your first fight.
But why?
It didn’t look like it would ever go away.
The nine circles and divinity dwelling in her heart were saying that.
