Talent-Swallowing Magician - Chapter 212
Episode 212:
If you hit
the dragon army like that, you will die!
Agwigam, who had become more sensitive than ever, was saying that.
This is a guy that Herman couldn’t easily kill. Although his actions were slow, it was obvious that there was nothing good about going head-to-head with a guy who had two or three times more magical power than Leda.
Therefore, Elric had to quickly pull back the ice spear and bite back.
Thanks to this, Belot barely passed by Elric’s eyes.
“you…!”
“You… are… hurt… a lot.”
Instead of aiming for Elric again, Belot violently hugged Leda, whose eyes were shaking, with one arm and kicked the ground again.
Quaaaang!
Just like when he attempted a hand-to-hand assault, Belot attempted to escape from the battlefield by pushing his body again.
Since its actions are sluggish and slow, it would be better to forcefully create speed by using its immense power.
Elric hurled out ice spears one after another to catch that guy.
Ice and heat exploded onto Bellot’s backboard countless times.
Damn it!
Damn it!
There was a deep wound along the animal’s wide back, so deep that the inner bones were clearly visible.
The ice poison seeped deep into the wound, causing the wound to become worse, but Bellot didn’t care at all and escaped.
Quang!
bang! Kwakwakwak!
As if a frog was jumping, Bellot drew a parabolic curve several times and quickly escaped the battlefield.
The speed was so fast and fierce that no matter how hard Elric tried to catch him with his merciless chains, he was always thrown away or lost.
In the end, Elric had to watch quietly as Belot turned into a dot and disappeared.
“Elric! “I’ll go after him, so you…!”
Hermann, who arrived a beat late, appeared to chase after Belot.
He, too, seemed quite taken aback by the fact that Bellot suddenly chose to run away after a good fight with him.
“wait a minute. Please wait.”
“Why but?”
But Herman was caught by Elric.
Hermann stopped walking for a moment.
One o’clock is urgent, so I wonder why I don’t hurry.
Then he had to open his eyes wide as he suddenly saw Elric collapse on the floor.
“Uweeeek!”
Elric’s complexion suddenly turned pale and he vomited a handful of blood onto the floor.
“Now you…? Are you okay?”
Only then did Herman realize that Elric had been hiding his injuries.
Actually, if you think about it, it was strange that Elric was able to continue fighting without any problems.
He had several fierce battles with Leda, and during those battles, he read the dragon’s thoughts and consumed dragon hearts, even attempting to evolve into a dragon demon.
Where is that? We had to continue to provide magic power so that Hyul’s thought form could run wild at will.
It was inevitable that both my strength and stamina would run out.
However, the reason we were able to endure was because the war situation was changing so drastically that we couldn’t let go of the tension.
However, when even that reached its limit, he gave up chasing after Leda.
Quad-duk-duk-duk-duk-
duk!
And even at this moment, his body was continuing to change.
It was accompanied by terrible pain and was eating up a lot of my stamina.
The good news was that all the blood Elric vomited was black blood, not red blood.
It means dead blood.
When I looked up again after vomiting blood, my complexion had returned to some extent.
Still, he clearly looked tired.
“First… please settle the battlefield first. “You don’t have to worry about that one.”
Herman saw a faint smile on Elric’s lips and laughed along with him.
It seems that Elric had another ulterior motive behind letting the two demon lords go.
‘Of course it is.’
He’s not the type of person to miss the prey that Elric has set his sights on.
Well then, I had to listen to him now.
“I understand. Come finish it. “Let’s rest for a while.”
Hermann nodded, stood up and shouted.
“The demon lords have been defeated! “If you continue to resist in vain, we will kill you all, but if you surrender, we will guarantee your safety!”
Herman’s voice echoed throughout the battlefield because his magic-laden lion’s rear was so large.
“All the demon lords have really left…?”
“Nonsense! “Don’t be a mess, human!”
“Ha, but you saw it a little while ago too. “Mr. Belot disappears while holding Ms. Leda…!”
“Shit! “What the hell is going on!”
The demon camp quickly fell into chaos.
That’s because the two demon kings who had been giving orders to them until now ran away without even giving a proper order to retreat or withdraw.
The command system completely collapsed.
Some tried to resist somehow. This was because it was difficult to think that humans would spare them even if they surrendered.
No, even if the imperial army was spared, it was clear that the Borfur people would never leave them alone after their sanctuary was trampled.
However, even if they tried to resist, they could not withstand the imperial army that systematically formed a siege network and rushed at them without proper leadership by a proper commander.
In addition, Hermann and Sailor quickly joined, and the demon camp collapsed in an instant.
But at some point, anywhere.
Hyul’s thought form, which should have been running wild while looking at the corpses of demons, was nowhere to be found.

『Your body has become a complete rag.』
Mephisto approached with his arms crossed and chuckled.
Elric waved his hand as if he didn’t have the strength to respond, but the young smile on his face became more clear. All powers have been stopped, and Nahatram’s possession has been lifted. He opened his mouth.
[They will give you directions properly, right?]
『What if they don’t? The places that those with such serious injuries can go are ultimately limited.』
Elric did not just let Leda go without defense.
When Belot jumped in, I expected it would be impossible to completely kill Leda in that short moment.
So we changed the strategy midway.
Instead of just releasing them, we decided to make sure we knew where they were going.
Finally, the ice that exploded onto Bellot’s back. A magical power reception terminal was planted inside it that could track their movements.
The mind’s eye was speaking.
They are currently running away quickly to the northwest.
『It’s a good idea to release the bait, but do you plan to keep leaving that unlucky-looking double knife like this? The next time we meet, I’m sure I’ll be very annoyed.』
There were two main reactions of beings who lived as monarchs or rulers all their lives when they were severely defeated.
Either you just plummet to the floor, or you take advantage of this opportunity to fly higher.
In Mephisto’s opinion, Leda was the latter.
Until now, he had been a frog in a well who only enjoyed success under the umbrella called Grigory, but the moment he learned that there was a wider sky in the world, he was a person who was able to jump higher.
So, when this injury reappears after treatment, it could become a very annoying obstacle.
but.
[Are you crazy?]
Elric responded to Mephisto’s concerns with a light snort.
[Bait is bait, and you’ve already caught everything so I’ll just let go?]
『As expected. You did something.』
Mephisto shook his head as if he knew that would happen.
As expected, Grigori’s biggest misfortune was that he attempted to be resurrected while Elric was still active.

Boom!
bang!
Even though no one is chasing me anymore.
Bellot was still moving quickly, kicking the ground violently. Every time I took a step, I jumped over a ridge, and where the ground had settled, a pillar of sand rose up high.
“Let go! Let go! Mervinger! Mervinger is still out there!”
“Your condition right now… is not good… First… you should… start with your return.”
Belot did not listen to Leda’s orders at all.
Even though I pushed him back and forth, telling him to let go, it was impossible to resist with my injured body against a guy that I couldn’t fight with my normal strength.
“Damn it!”
That made Leda feel like she was going to burst out in anger.
What he wanted was definitely not this shabby appearance.
Returning to the headquarters majestically, holding the heart of the dragon. Enjoying only glorious victories. Thus, he inherits Azazel’s crown. That was the only future he envisioned.
In my current state, there was nothing I could do.
“I’ll kill you… I’ll kill you Mervinger…!”
Because of that, Leda pondered over and over again the face of Elric, who had brought such humiliation on her.
The next time we meet, I will somehow make up for this humiliation. I promised myself that many times over and over again.
After thinking about it like that, my excitement subsided little by little.
A spark of anger still remained in the back of my mind, but it wasn’t enough to make me lose my temper.
As a result, other worries began to bloom.
“…If we go back to this, the priest will be very angry.”
There was a high chance that it wouldn’t end if I just got angry.
Discipline will certainly follow.
Since he lost the Dragon Heart, which was the most important thing in Azazel’s resurrection, that crime could be said to be a very serious crime.
Considering that they also lost all the soldiers they had attached…
But.
There was something else that irritated Leda more than that.
‘…Lapis Lazuli, I’m already getting irritated thinking about being chewed over by those bitches.’
The two twins never like it when the same bishop gets the credit. They just want something fun that they can enjoy.
He had no interest in Grigori’s secret wishes or ideals. Rather than being the alter ego of the great Azazel, Lilith of that bizarre orgy would fit better.
Being ignored by such people is the most humiliating thing.
Because of this, Leda had to change her mind several times.
‘Wouldn’t it be better to wait for them to let down their guard instead of going back to the headquarters like this…?’
Leda glanced at Belot.
This guy rarely changes his thoughts once they are engraved in him. So, although it is very difficult to persuade, it was clear that once successful in persuading, it would be of great help.
So I’m going to tell him my thoughts.
I’m sorry.
I don’t think that will happen, do you?
A voice suddenly rang in my ears.
Leda straightened her back.
“Why… but…?”
“Didn’t you hear what I said a moment ago?”
“What… sound…?”
Leda’s complexion hardened at Belot’s question.
Maybe I was hallucinating because my energy was so low? I think I definitely heard the voice of that strange-looking shadow beast…?
Still, I couldn’t seem to calm down, so I looked around.
I tried to regain my senses, but I couldn’t feel anything.
‘Did you hear nonsense?’
He seemed to have suffered from neurosis because he was so beaten by Mervinger. I saw a voice related to that guy.
Actually, if you think about it with common sense, there is no way that Hyul, who was tied up by Elric, would show up here so far away…
Didn’t I tell you to throw him away?
I’ll give it back literally.
But Leda’s thoughts did not last long.
Wow!
Hyul’s thought form suddenly appeared from Leda’s shadow on the ground.
and.
Kwasik!
It took a big bite of the famous seal drawn on the sole of Leda’s right wing.
