Helmut: The Forsaken Child - Chapter 392

392

Xian was unlucky. It wasn’t enough to get him eliminated in the first match of the finals, but he met a wizard and had a dark spirit reverse-summoned.

This means that the spirit that has been hit cannot be summoned to the present world for the time being.

‘I can’t use stealth without the spirit of darkness.’

The ability to hide oneself from a prosecutor was very useful.

If you cast darkness on the entire stage and attack the opponent through the spirit of darkness, it is no different from fighting while the swordsman is blind.

However, the wizard I met for the first time seemed to be working quite well, so he accurately figured out the location of the spirit and nullified the dark effect with a powerful attack spell.

However, as a result, he also exhausted his magic power, so the decision was soon over.

Because handling spirits well determines a spirit wizard’s abilities, dependency is bound to be high.

In that situation, Xian had to play the second game.

Although dark spirits are rare and very useful, Xian also had other spirits.

The only problem is that Xian is not very skilled in interpersonal combat using spirits.

“Don’t tarnish my name! “Do we have to advance to the finals?”

Before the match, Asuka raised her fist and made a threat.

Although he passed it off in awe, Sian also had pride. The pride of being the Deputy Head of the Magic Department at Greta Academy.

‘I’m not the weak one because I’m stuck among these guys.’

Those who participate in this competition with huge rewards at stake are indeed formidable.

However, if you were to say that it was a skill that Xian couldn’t put into it, that wasn’t the case.

‘Accumulate practical experience. But the first opponent…’

Xian frowned.

‘I meet this bastard again.’

The other person also recognized Xian.

“I remember. “It’s not a skill worth remembering, though.”

‘It’s because I’m unlucky that things end up like this.’

Xian sighed deeply inwardly. Meeting someone I met before again? And of course, the opponent who defeated him!

His arrogant attitude resembles someone else. Asuka or someone like Asuka.

The man muttered with a cold face without any change in expression.

“Did you say Askara? “Spirit wizard.”

Coincidentally, it is this Sian who uses Asuka’s name.

“Seeing that we met twice, I think this is a revelation telling me to cut you down.”

The man’s eyes were bright gold as he spoke confidently.

A heavy and overwhelming energy is subtly revealed throughout the body. The strange feeling I felt there still remains.

Something different from the usual inspection vis. However, there is a subtle sense of heterogeneity that cannot be pinpointed and explained. I can’t say for sure that it’s not Bis.

Because of what he had experienced, Sian knew his strength well.

It is nearly impossible for a wizard to defeat a swordsman stronger than him one-on-one.

‘I was hoping to meet Asukana Area.’

I had already experienced enough of this man’s skills in the first battle. Moreover, since dark spirits cannot be summoned, you must fight with limitations.

However, if I am not mistaken, this person can see through spirits, so the dark spirits are useless anyway.

‘Restrictions are meaningless and I have already experienced this once. And for me…’

Sian pushed his hand into his arms. A solid object is grasped in the hand. I have prepared something after listening to Area.

‘I don’t know how well it will work, but I’ll give it a try.’

Just like before, being unable to do anything and losing helplessly is also a requirement here.

‘Show more skills.’

Maybe we can find out what power this man has? A stiff force went into my neck.

Soon the signal signaling the start of the game rang.

*

“Everyone get out of the way!”

“Get out of the way, everyone!”

Silence after the screams. And then there was the uproar. Medical staff rushed in with shouts of “step back” and carried the injured through the crowd.

Amid the bustling crowd, the man looked down at the floor with cold eyes.

What remains on the stage are scattered traces of blood. This is life-threatening bleeding.

The man left alone traced his cheek with his thumb. A place where a sharp wind tore through. A thin trace of blood appears along the scar on the cheek.

The man’s eyebrows narrowed unpleasantly when he saw the blood stain on his thumb.

“dare.”

A light flashed in the golden eyes of the man speaking in a low voice.

A vile spirit wizard. I brought useful tools to replace my lack of skills.

He reverse-summoned the three charging spirits of Xian and rushed forward without hesitation to cut down their owner.

The man intended to end the match quickly. Like ever.

However, the man made a mistake. A misjudgment about the elemental wizard. What Xian had was not only spirits.

‘Blade of the Storm.’

Xian is a spirit wizard and also a wizard. The powerful magic prepared while the three spirits were reverse summoned swept across the stage.

It didn’t take long until the three spirits were reverse-summoned by the man, but the artifact that Xian had rapidly shortened the casting time.

It was a killing magic powerful enough for Xian to be proud of. It is unreasonable to say that we should be moderate when dealing with such a strong person.

‘I’ll give you a punch!’

That was Sian’s idea. But the results were disastrous. The man’s sword cut through the magic of conversion prepared by Xian and dealt him an irresistible blow.

I’m just glad I didn’t die on the spot.

The organizers, who were keeping an eye on the unusual stage situation, quickly stopped the man.

The man who was left alone after Xian was carried away swallowed his shame and regret.

‘I should have killed him with one blow.’

Allowing someone like a wizard to hurt you? It’s a great disgrace. Have you become lazy by only meeting easy opponents?

Moreover, wasn’t he a wizard he met twice while fighting a duel with numerous people?

This could have been Lumen’s revelation to end his life.

I had no choice but to withdraw immediately out of fear that I would be disqualified from competing if I was found to have committed murder on purpose.

The man looked down at the sword with cold eyes. His sword, which was not even stained with the slightest trace of blood, sparkled as if to prove his true nature.

The holy sword of Lumen, imbued with light, has not yet revealed itself.

‘Is there really an opponent who can reveal the true value of this sword?’

The man completely ruled out the possibility of losing. Because no such future existed before the chosen one.

The man who calmly put his sword in his waist came down the stage looking like a winner. There was still a long way to go until the finals.

He was now on a holy war. I will reflect on and correct today’s negligence and complete my mission without negligence.

*

The medical staff’s response was quick. Once they stopped the bleeding on stage, they carried Xian to the infirmary.

Wizards specializing in recovery magic flocked in and poured magic on Sian until his magic power was exhausted. Sian’s face, which had lost consciousness, was white and didn’t look very good.

There was a deep cut in the abdomen. If it had been cut a little higher, it would have died.

“The wound is so deep! “I wonder if I will be able to regain consciousness like this.”

“You recovered from the trauma, but you lost too much blood.”

In order to accept recovery magic and heal the body, inherent vitality and mental power are also required.

In the aftermath of being countersummoned one after another, both of them reached rock bottom. He is not in a state where he can fully accept recovery magic.

Even if I poured out magic, the magic leaked out of my body like a broken vessel. Sweat beaded on the wizards’ foreheads.

“We can’t do this. “You need a high-ranking wizard to fill it with vitality.”

“Then come on…”

At that time, the door to the infirmary burst open.

“You must not enter without permission!”

With a bit of commotion, a person shook off the guard and entered the room. A sonorous voice rang out.

“Let me take a look. “It will help.”

The wizards all looked at the person who suddenly burst into the infirmary. A beautiful woman with light purple hair and purple eyes.

They also knew who the rumored girl was. A contestant named Violet. And he is a very skilled wizard.

I didn’t know if she was good at recovery magic, but I had to lend a hand at least to the cat.

Just one thing. The wizards in the room hesitated and asked her.

“How can I trust you?”

“I know him.”

It was an accident that left the stage covered in blood. There was a lot of commotion everywhere.

Area, who immediately heard the news, came running and quickly approached Sian.

Without the wizards stopping her, she immediately placed her hand on Xian’s heart.

‘You barely survived.’

Taking quick action was effective. She has reached the level of an archmage and can save a person’s life if she does not die.

Enormous magical energy gathered in Area’s hands and emitted white light. If the bowl is broken, repair it as a whole.

Powerful healing magic penetrated deep into Xian’s body. The wizards who were watching her magic let out an exclamation.

“How could this be…!”

“What are you?”

A wizard I’ve never seen before. With such a striking appearance and this level of skill, there would be no way that rumors would not have spread.

Eyes of suspicion and astonishment fell on Area. Without even looking at them, she used her magic and let out a cold sigh.

“I need to concentrate, so let’s go out first. “Questions later.”

It was a skill that I had no choice but to follow. Area, who sent them away, healed Xian’s body and awakened Xian’s spirit.

Since the pain will have disappeared, waking up your mind will be better for recovering yourself. Because he’s a wizard too.

Soon, Sian opened his eyes with a low groan.

“Ugh.”

“Are you awake?”

Xian frowned and looked up at Area. It seemed somehow unfamiliar.

“…A heaven of death? “She looks like Area…yes.”

“I saved his life as best I could, so stop talking nonsense.”

Xian, who had been muttering something stupid, finally came to his senses.

“It’s Area, right? “Am I not dead?”

Area shook her head.

“I guess you know it was a death-worthy situation. “You were lucky.”

If the first action had not been appropriate or if the wound had been deeper, he would not have escaped death.

It is truly shabby for Rodril’s successor to die fighting in a martial arts club.

Xian muttered blankly.

“I think I had an afterlife experience… something like that. “I saw something amazing.”

His hand traced his abdomen. The completely healed wound was clean.

Although Area’s healing magic was excellent, full recovery was impossible.

It will take some time to regain the lost magic power and vitality. Area responded indifferently.

“I hope it helps you with your magical accomplishments. Rather… what happened? “There’s no way you’d be treated like that by an opponent like that.”

It was a surprising situation even for Area, who objectively evaluated his level to be quite high, no matter how much he ignored Xian.

Area’s purple eyes were infinitely serious. Wasn’t Xian who was fine even in the Forest of Digging? It was even shocking.

I felt someone approaching outside the door. Area glanced at the door and looked directly at Xian as if demanding an answer.
