Reborn as the Enemy Prince - Chapter 334

Chapter 59. Surprisingly clumsy (4)

and unfamiliar.

Something different from usual, something you can’t easily imagine, something you’ve never faced before.

When encountering something unfamiliar, most people have two reactions. Either show curiosity or feel fear.

When Adelia felt an unfamiliar energy scanning through her body, she felt a clear curiosity towards the half-elf who sent the light. I thought about daring to look inside the Archmage’s mind without fear, and I was amazed by his reaction as if he knew something about the stone in his heart at a glance. So Adelia made no secret of her deep interest in how the half-elf could do such a thing.

On the other hand.

– Kaga River! Kaaaang! Kagan kang!

As soon as you see the bright red traces, daggers are flying towards your heart and throat. I can assure you that it was also an unfamiliar power that Adelia had never seen anywhere else.

-Ssam!

– Cards!

Now that I had encountered that power directly, my feelings were clearly one of fear. Of course, it wasn’t as scary as the fear I felt when I saw Sispanian in front of me. However, Sispanians were absolute beings more than human. In contrast, the person standing in front is a human being. He was also a human being who lived much less years than Adelia and whose magical powers were not that great.

The emotions I feel in front of such a person are unfamiliar.

Fear of the unfamiliar, a force I don’t want to face for a long time.

“What the hell is he?”

Whether you hurt the roots of the mother tree or not.

Whether or not you are attacked by an angry Sispanian.

Will I destroy the floor of this forest again so that there is no room for my quick feet to step on? Will I be able to run endlessly like that even while the pillars of flame rise and the ground disappears? Should I destroy the gravity of this forest by using the power of the stone? Should I hit him with a stream of water pulled from the ground and send lightning down from the sky?

Let’s attack first. If you do that, your fear will go away.

“You must be free. I am not.”

The bright red eyes that are now right in front of us are full of joy. I can’t tell if Adelia is doing this because she knows she can’t use her strength properly or if this fight is really fun without any calculations.

Adelia felt the goosebumps on her arms disappear and quickly used her magic. And he barely escaped the daggers rushing towards him. I didn’t have time to focus my eyes on the shirt collar that had been cut off instead of my neck just before warping.

– Ugh!

The red sword in Calian’s hand glowed for a moment.

It looked as if the largest stained glass in the Serenti Temple had been mercilessly split, or like a knight’s iron sword that could not withstand the sword master’s aura. The long sword was broken into pieces.

Aura fragments transformed into countless blades float in the air with a bright light.

As I had heard from Alan, Calian never dug into the ground. Nothing in the ground was touched. This was because they did not want Sispanian to get involved in disturbing the roots of the mother tree that was probably buried somewhere.

If you intervene, the fight will end, and if that happens, the fun of going on a rampage for the first time in a long time will end.

– Shhh!

– Hiss!

The atmosphere vibrates.

The fragmented Aurors were sucked together into the whirling vortex, pulling in all the surrounding branches and leaves. The branches and leaves were crushed by the small, rotating blades, and soon their shapes became unrecognizable and disappeared.

– Kugugugugung…!

The earth is shaking.

The experience of vividly seeing the wind vortex, which was only a 4-circle spell, sucking in and crushing everything nearby was not very pleasant.

“Do I look free?”

“Are you not lazy or are you afraid?”

Calian, who read Adelia’s eyes accurately this time, laughed.

Is the person in front of me telling a lie?

Where should I stab it and how does it hurt the most?

When do people feel great fear?

okay. Calian knew well.

“No matter how many circles there are… it’s only because it’s this slow.”

Because I’ve been through a lot.

Thanks to the snake that somehow no longer exists.

– Sigh!

I get goosebumps.

Because of the chilling gaze that passed down my spine, because of that whirlwind that split in all directions and flew towards me.

So Adelia almost forgot.

I almost forgot that the person in front of me was a wizard with at most four circles, and I almost forgot that my circle was more than that. It was almost impossible to imagine that he was so unfazed even when dealing with the Grand Wizard of the 8th Circle.

– Howling!

Adelia’s fire seeped into Calian’s whirlwind, which was approaching at a frightening speed. Inside the four-branched vortex, flames as red as Calian’s auror fragment swirled.

Adelia, who confirmed that Calian’s magic was hers, played with her hand. Immediately, a deep, dense magical power eroded Kalian’s power. The nature of the magic power that created the flames was changed to something else, the same wind energy that Calian had sent.

– Ugh!

Adelia, who had put her power into what Calian had created, played with her hands. The new power that used the wind vortex that was flying toward Adelia as a host now flew back toward Calian.

Calian kicked the auror pieces in the whirlwind without even wavering his hand.

– Kuaang!

– Quang! Kwaaaaang!

A tornado hits the spot where Calian was just moments ago. The ground is deeply dug up, and dirt and stones fly in all directions. Of course, Calian was no longer there.

– Hwiik!

Another wind rose. As soon as she could feel it, Adelia warped away. I left the area where the tornado had been blowing just a moment ago and climbed onto a rock far away.

“here.”

Inevitably, a voice is heard from behind the back of my neck.

Even if you quickly turn around and look behind you, it’s obvious that you won’t see anyone. So Adelia used her magic power without showing any other reaction.

front.

It’s ahead.

– Howling!

The moment Calian’s location was confirmed, a huge fireball flew out from Adelia.

Allen did the same thing. Therefore, as soon as he finished speaking, Calian took refuge in another place and raised his red sword again. And he launched himself without delay.

As if it were an illusion, Adelia’s shadow appeared in the distance and suddenly disappeared and appeared from all directions. At the same time, the illusions of Adelia were created and all of them sent blades of wind towards Calian.

– Shhh! Hiss!

A red shield filled with the power of Auror surrounded Calian, and immediately after that, the blades of wind were blocked by the shield and disappeared.

– Kagaga River!

– Kagang kaaang!

This time, the energy of burning flame was in the hands of numerous wizards. Even though it was an illusion, it was clear that each fireball contained strong power, just like the blades that were pointed at Calian just moments ago.

Calian took a short breath and kicked his feet using his magic power.

– Ugh!

Dozens of red blade fragments float in the air and fly in one direction. Illusions ready to send fireballs at Calian. Wizards with white hair and black-red eyes. Toward the one true wizard among them.

– Slut!

Adelia, seeing Calian, who immediately distinguished between illusion and real appearance, stiffened her expression and warped away. Adelia said, immediately changing direction and deploying her shield to block the flying debris again.

“This is why people who are good at using swords are not that good.”

Numerous illusions disappear all at once.

Calian took another deep breath and a deep red light grew from his hand. It meant that instead of fighting back, he would keep fighting.

Adelia’s head turned towards Serjane.

To be exact, it was directed at Planz and Arsene, who were facing Serjane. Adelia, who had been looking at the two, stretched out her hand. And the magic power moved.

Serjane’s expression hardens, as he had no idea that he would think of messing with Calian’s companions with Calian by his side. One more layer is placed on top of Arsene’s shield.

Calian disappeared into the darkness.

– Munch!

Plantz frowned.

In front of the shield that surrounded the three people, Calian was standing outside the shield. I had already seen Calian blocking my way several times, so it wasn’t something that was very strange or unpleasant. Still, it’s unpleasant.

Nothing happened.

Calian was not hit by a magical spear, nor did he suffer any minor wounds. The wind did not swirl and gravity did not move. Nonetheless, it’s unpleasant.

“……Dark magic.”

Plantz, who found out the reason for the discomfort, muttered quietly to himself. Plantz’s frown did not return because he had just realized what Adelia was trying to write about him and Arsene.

Calian was clearly hit by Adelia’s black magic.

He blocked Plantz and Arsene and hit them instead.

But nothing happened.

“…… under.”

Even though he was hit with the black magic that created a black butterfly in front of Alan Manasil, nothing appeared next to Calian.

Nothing appeared.

Calian, who had closed his eyes for a moment while facing Plantz and Arsene, let out a short sigh and slowly opened his eyes. A long smile is drawn on his face. Serjane saw that and hurriedly spoke.

“Go back, Adelia.”

Adelia’s mouth closes.

Even though he must have heard what Serjane said, he just looked at Serjane’s face, Calian’s back, and the other two.

When Adelia did not move, Serjane spoke again.

“go back.”

Adelia, with a look on her face as if she had seen something absurd, opened her mouth to say something.

But at that moment.

– Whaaah!

Calian’s sword, whose back was clearly turned, was aimed at Adelia’s neck. Calian turned towards Adelia without saying a single word and threw his sword.

The Grand Wizard’s pupils dilated greatly as he was hit with all the life he had saved up until now.

can not avoid.

can not avoid.

Calian’s eyes met his gaze. I forgot about having to shield. I forgot how to warp out of the way. I could only see the sword flying towards my neck getting closer by the minute.

Then in Jongnae.

-……Suddenly!

do.

The red sword that passed through Adelia’s neck and cut down the entire tree next to her scattered and disappeared.

The long sword cut off Adelia’s neck.

There was silence.

– Flash.

I feel a tingling sensation.

The eyelids blinked once over the red-tinted black eyes. The head, which I thought had been cut off cleanly and lying on the floor, was still resting on my neck.

Slowly, very slowly. Adelia’s hand moved. He moved his arm, which was extended towards Plants, and traced the area around his neck. I could feel thick blood seeping from a rather deep cut, but that was it. Adelia’s head was not cut off and she did not roll around on the floor.

“… That’s what fear is. If you want to scare someone, you have to do this. Adelia.”

The thin voice of the person who falsely cut Adelia’s neck rang in Adelia’s ears, as if it had once pierced Devlan’s heart.

“Don’t play around like that.”

didn’t die

The sensation of a cool sword passing over my neck clearly remained. Adelia, who was looking at Calian with the feeling that she was going to be decapitated at any moment, finally smiled.

Only now did I feel curious.

To that cheeky prince who showed me what truly scary is.

Adelia, who had no trouble with anything in the world, looked at the tree trunk rolling on the ground instead of at her neck. Then I turned my head and looked at Calian’s surroundings, where nothing had appeared.

That’s when I opened my mouth to express my short impressions about him.

– Paaaaah!

A blinding light burst out.

Numerous rays of light stretched out from beneath my feet toward the sky. The light was so bright that not only the other party members, but even Adelia and Calian had to close their eyes for a moment.

After a split second, the light that had been encroaching on the entire forest disappeared, and Calian’s eyes narrowed as he quickly opened his eyes.

The figures of Serjane and Adelia, who had been in front just moments ago, had suddenly disappeared.

* * *

– Cracking crackling…….

I am now used to the smell of burning wood.

I have also become accustomed to following with my eyes the sparks that light up the darkness for a moment and then fade away.

“There are so many trees that the prince has cut down, so you don’t have to worry about firewood.”

Is he out of curiosity or is he trying to tell a joke to another angry deputy commander? I listened to the words of the crazy, blue-haired wizard that I could never understand.

“What are you thinking like that?”

Nevertheless, Plantz, who had been looking into the campfire in silence, did not give up and continued talking to her, but eventually spoke in a low voice.

“Is it Danu? Is it Adelia?”

“What do you mean?”

“What’s gone.”

“Are you saying that the disappearance of Serjane and Adelia was due to Danu’s interference or Adelia’s power?”

The head, which turned golden with red undertones in the light of the bonfire, moved up and down.

“I don’t know for sure whether having a pebble in one’s heart only affects the ability to use magic of various attributes like the wizard named Gina who faced the Association President last time, or whether it allows one to exert power beyond my circle. If it is the latter, I am dragging Serzane with him. “It’s possible that he warped to another place. However, considering that that much light came up from the floor, I think he may have been summoned by Danu.”

Plantz nodded once again and looked around. The sight of a forest that has been devastated again despite the efforts to restore it is dismal.

The various foods Jan and Reric had prepared were already stuffed into Arsene’s pocket. Nevertheless, Calian insisted that he wanted to eat freshly caught meat and disappeared, leaving the two behind. And then he didn’t come for a long time.

“Prince, you’re late. I don’t know what you went to catch or how far you went.”

“Leave it.”

Plantz answered briefly and leaned his back against the wooden pillar.

Because the tree branches that were supposed to block the sky have disappeared, the sky is clearly visible. Plantz, who was watching a shooting star fall, sighed deeply.

I was told not to use the shield and I didn’t use the shield.

I didn’t tell you not to block it with your body, so I can’t say much. That’s why I get more annoyed. What on earth were they thinking when they blocked Adelia’s magic with their bare bodies?

“If I had been hit with that magic, the prince would have appeared reading my reflection in front of the vice commander, who is the crown prince.”

Otherwise, it’s a giant Coco that has grown all the way to the sky, or Euria with a boring flower that some guy gave me instead of a blue ice flower.

Arsene’s shoulders trembled for a moment as he thought of scary things. And then he opened his mouth again.

“I blocked Commander Manasil’s magic once. The prince already knows that well. So, the prince must have known what kind of magic Adelia used and blocked it. If not, he would have left it alone or put up more shields. .”

Arsene intervened as if he had read Plantz’s thoughts. If it had been a normal attack spell, it would have been blocked by the shield Arsene had worked so hard to put up, but since black magic that causes a person’s heart to come out cannot be blocked by a shield, it is said that Calian was hit instead.

“I didn’t say anything.”

“Yes. I said it to myself. But shouldn’t you tell the prince what Serjane said?”

“not today.”

“All right.”

Silence came again.

Arsene, who was examining the campfire, opened his mouth again.

“What are you afraid of? Nothing comes out. Isn’t the prince truly amazing?”

The crazy blue-haired wizard is talking a lot today.

Instead of answering, a long sigh flowed from Plantz’s mouth again.

Calian still hasn’t figured out what to do with what he heard from Serzane while fighting. But then I started to see things getting more complicated.

“It came out. That’s it.”

Not the snake that disappeared, not the boat that is no longer relevant.

The only thing that Calian is really afraid of. Plantz knows that it was shown. Of course, Kalyan knows. So you can’t catch wild chickens or wild boars.

“The forest is empty, brother. I guess I’ll just have to eat what Yan prepared.”

I guess he came back trudging like that.

Planz, who looked at Calian for a moment, stood up. And I took the bow and quiver of arrows that were tied to Estina’s saddle.

“What are you doing?”

“hunt.”

“I said it was empty.”

“I’ll catch it for you. Let’s eat the meat.”

Plantz moved his feet shakily.

Calian, who was looking at Plants for a moment, smiled brightly.

“yes.”
