Dragon-Devouring Mage - Chapter 50

Episode 50

EPISODE.25

A literal sand explosion occurred.

One of the secrets of Volare Sangue. The killing machine (殺人技) Cheonchammanryuk (千斬萬戮) was, simply put, a high-speed secret sword.

A muscle strained to its limit.

Dozens of sword strikes emitted through him form a dense network of sword skills.

Anything that came within the airspace was egged into dozens or hundreds of fragments.

It is a swordsmanship that demonstrates greatness not only against an army but also against people because it covers a wide range and entangles a narrow range.

That was a thousand and one million lands.

‘It would be difficult to leave even a single bone fragment if it wasn’t within range?’

Something that I don’t know whether it was flesh or blood began to stain the whites of the eyes.

Spandom stuck out his tongue while showing his red, shiny eyes.

He licked his lower lip and murmured slowly.

“Then why are you bothering me? Had he died peacefully, he could have left the body and had a funeral.”

Of course, he cut off the head and took it.

It was a voice tinged with murderous madness that was far too playful to pass it off.

The moment you try to put the bloody sword over your shoulder.

-!!

All the senses in my body screamed.

As a trained Aura practitioner, all of his senses were ringing the alarm without ceasing.

He felt as if dozens of needles were pointed at his skin.

In an instant, he tensed every muscle in his body.

‘Did you survive that?’

If he had been hit in that state, it was an attack that would have made it difficult for him to say that he was also safe.

He might not have died, but at least one of his limbs might have been cut into several pieces.

But did you survive it?

Even with a body with little mana left?

It can’t be.

There’s no way that’s possible.

As if denying the idea of spandom, red smoke rose from the dusty sand.

Hwaaak!

‘Yes!’

It’s not thick bloody smoke .

It was steam.

Steam generated by boiling and vaporizing the blood that flowed from the wound due to the high-temperature mana.

1 second at most.

A lot of thoughts passed through my head in a short time of about 1 second, and four.

It was almost at the same time that the Circle, which had grown in size to the size of almost five, let out a loud roar.

Wow wow!

A roar like that of a monster.

through the sand dust.

Something in the shape of a half-human, half-dragon rushed toward Spandom.

.

.

…15 seconds.

At the moment of manifestation, the blood all over the body boiled as if it had become lava.

Waves of sensation pouring in to the point of making your head dizzy.

It was an experience I had never experienced even once.

‘maybe.’

It must be that the condition of the body is not that good.

Even if it was in perfect condition, the aftereffects of Yonginhwa were obvious changes.

Nevertheless, there was definitely a reason why Russell had been saving Yongin-hwa until now.

For a moment, it was Yonginhwa that brought power that transcended the rank of the Circle, but the limitations and side effects were also clear.

‘The duration of Yonginhwa is at most 15 seconds.’

The difference in capacity between those who could demonstrate power beyond their limits for only 15 seconds and those who could use such power naturally was clear.

Russell made Spandom over-consume Aurors in order to close the gap.

…13 seconds and 0. About a few seconds.

After recovering consciousness for nearly a second, Russell’s toe kicked the floor.

bang!

The sand burst.

Russell, who had reached the subsonic realm in an instant, reached out.

cast a spell

Now that Yonginhwa was used, even 5th circle magic could be used.

It’ll be a bit difficult, though.

‘The dwarf of the firewood…’

The things he uses as the medium are the torn and split pieces of cloth that were once his clothes.

‘Kuu!’

Hwarak Hwarak-!

With a short groan and the manifestation of magic, four dwarves made of firewood appeared.

Guys appeared from all sides and attacked Spandom as if they were surrounded.

Unlike Daria’s, it was small and unarmed, but that was enough.

Because I had no intention of capturing spandom with that magic in the first place.

…12 seconds.

‘Flare Cannon.’

The magic of the 5th circle that Hubert showed in the previous day’s battle with the cultist.

The moment you open your closed palms!

Kwaang jade salt was ejected at high speed.

It pierced the desert like a ray of light, hanging down its long tail like a comet.

It took less than a second for the shot trajectory to reach Spandom’s eyes.

“Kuk!”

He, who was being held by the four dwarfs by his ankles, twisted his sword face as if in a fit of fuss.

…11 seconds.

――――!!

A pillar of fire rose high enough to reach the sun.

…10 seconds 9 seconds 8 seconds.

As if the heat of the entire desert had been concentrated at one point, the air was burning and choking.

“This bastard…”

Spandom slid out of it.

…7 seconds 6 seconds.

Part of his face was distorted due to burns.

Part of the blade that blocked the flames melted and dripped red molten iron.

If he was a criminal, there would be nothing strange about him even if he died many times.

Nevertheless, Spandom moved its body.

While frowning, he swung his sword at Russell.

…5 seconds.

Fuhuaaaagh!

‘Spear of flame…!’

The flame giant that appeared while blocking his aura was enough to shock Spandom.

I knew it was close range, but I never thought it would come this far!

Moreover, how dense is the density of the magic power that makes up the spear!

It was incomparable to the huge spear of flame I had seen before.

‘Ugh-!’

In an instant, Spandom, who realized that he had shrunk, gnashed his teeth.

‘You dare to be a wizard…’

He came to me in close combat.

It was a shame as a prosecutor.

let me know the fountain With that thought, Spandom with a red face twisted her wrist.

Using strength and technique appropriately, he pressed down the spear of flame.

…four seconds.

I don’t know what number I wrote -.

‘It won’t last that long.’

It was impossible to grow power in this way without taking enormous risks.

‘I will never kill comfortably.’

First, the tendons in the limbs are cut, the eyes are pulled out, then the teeth and nails are pulled out.

After that, I planned to thinly slice his flesh.

I will use the scorching desert sun to turn it into beef jerky.

It wouldn’t be bad to use merchants to distribute the jerky to Endymion.

‘So that the bastards in your country can chew on your flesh.’

The guy giggled, revealing the face of a murderer dotted with madness without filtering.

…3 seconds.

However, Spandom did not know.

Even this struggle was a paving stone laid by a wizard named Russell.

confrontation from the front.

Another magic that was being prepared was not revealed because it was hidden by the huge flames and the movement of magical power.

Spandom did not know.

…2 seconds.

It is given a fire attribute that goes well with this desert.

“Melt Down.”

The sandy ground they were standing on melted away.

Just as they were about to pull their feet into the magma swamp!

“Lightning Touch Blink.”

A hand with a touch of lightning swept across Spandom’s bare skin.

…one second.

Russell’s model bounced off the spot.

…zero.

It was a really short ride.

.

.

Stiffness from electric shock.

What followed was a magma half bath.

Spandom screamed out loud.

The pain of the lower body melting was not something even an experienced Aura practitioner could easily endure.

“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

thud!

Russell, who appeared a little further away, coughed at random.

“Keuk kook kook kuck.”

Aside from the impact of falling from the mound due to a failed blink landing, the heat transmitted from the overheated circle was unusual.

Perhaps because his mental powers were exhausted, he was plagued with a headache.

The proof was that whenever he coughed up blood mixed with sand flowed out.

‘Oh, I’m going to die.’

I wanted to lie down right away, but I couldn’t.

When I forcibly moved my body to raise my upper body, Spandom was crawling on the floor and using a rattlesnake.

“akrkaglaemfdj!”

It was quite far away, so I couldn’t hear what they were saying.

It seems that he is still alive even though his lower body is almost completely melted and it is difficult to find his shape.

“wlsWkglaemfdj!”

What the hell are you talking about from now on?

Is the vitality of the strong people who have crossed the wall originally as tenacious as cockroaches?

Feeling really good, Russell raised his middle finger instead of answering.

“dusckadmfgoekffkrnqty!?”

He was even more evil, but who knows.

What I had to give back this time was something that wasn’t a verbal answer.

It was a difficult situation to even chant, but there were several spells memorized for this moment.

The magic Russell, who had been preparing since the first paving stone, activated it.

‘Icicle Arrow.’

Five, not one.

With the advent of magic that focused on penetration rather than explosion or firepower, Spandom’s face became as pale as an ice arrow.

“du…dusckawnrduwnj!!”

He sprawled on the floor, his arms struggling, and an ice arrow pierced his back like a porcupine.

hooked!

[You have completed the mission.]

[You will receive Intermediate Manastone (Edible) x4 as a reward.]

Russell let out a long sigh as he heard the notification that flowed in like a confirmed kill.

“Ugh-.”

Then, he let out a sigh. There was no place on the body that was not sore.

Blood was still oozing from the cracked and cut wounds, and the muscles all over the body throbbed as if they were going to break at any moment.

Circle wasn’t all that well either.

The full mana is gone, and all that remains is a mere amount of mana at the level of residual fire.

It was because the Yonginhwa was released and the reaction came to both the magical power and the body and mind.

I wanted to lie down right away and even fall asleep, but…

‘I can’t do that.’

Wasn’t it the body that was being chased by the guard dogs of the empire just a little while ago?

If you fell asleep here, there was a chance that you would be caught by those who came to check the progress of the battle.

‘Before that, I might get used to the heat of the desert or die from excessive blood loss.’

Now is the time to move your body.

So Russell opened his inventory.

Before going on a mission, I took out what Daria had prepared for me in case of an unexpected situation.

Click.

A red liquid in a long glass tube about twice the length of your thumb.

It was a potion.

After drinking half of it, I spread the other half all over my body.

White steam rose and the blood quickly stopped.

‘Oh, I will live.’

I could feel that my stomach, which had been shaken and rumbled, was calming down little by little.

Of course, potions were not all-powerful.

The power of the potion is only to help stop bleeding and boost regeneration.

If all wounds are healed immediately after drinking it, it should be called the ‘elixir’ of the legend, not a potion.

But that was enough for Russell.

What he needed right now was not a full body recovery, but enough energy to move.

flutter -.

Russell stood up, opened his inventory, and took out an extra robe.

It wasn’t a robe with the Flame Tower’s authentication magic, but it didn’t matter.

For now, it was important to cover the tattered body from the scorching sun.

Preparations for resuming movement are over with that, but I have to leave, but before that-.

‘I’ll have to take that.’

What is in the corner of your gaze is…

a corpse whose back is pierced by an ice arrow and whose lower body is half melted.

Similarly, a longsword with half of the blade melted.

…It was the spoils of this battle.
