Talent-Swallowing Magician - Chapter 219

219:

Dragon Soldier

Elric huffed in an annoyed tone for a while, then let out a long sigh.

“Haaa…! “You can just say that I did it because my magic skills are not yet reliable.”

Elric had a sullen look on his face.

In fact, he was able to immediately sense the hidden meaning in the letter that Woosden left behind.

It turns out that Woosden didn’t want his only grandson to get hurt, so he expressed it that way.

“Still, we got through the ‘winter’ you were worried about so well, but are you worried that you won’t be able to properly handle anything else?”

Even though he only learned ‘Winter’, Elric has already become strong enough to take on the Demon King.

So, I was confident that I would be able to get the other four seasons, but it didn’t seem that way in Woosden’s eyes.

Unless it is.

‘The difficulty of what comes after is just as difficult.’

Elric swallowed dry saliva.

anyway.

There must be a good reason why my grandfather sealed his memories.

Even though I touched the letter he left, there must be a good reason why it is still unsealed.

‘Do I need to meet some more conditions?’

or.

‘It could mean that we should not be distracted by the other four worlds and that once we get out of here, we should first focus on defeating Grigori.’

What was certain was that if I first solved the assigned homework, I would find a way to anything.

While organizing his thoughts, Elric retrieved the parchment and slowly turned the first page of the book.

The magic of the ancestors is that Usden made a contract with the god of the sky and followed the fortunes of the stars to restore them.

The first of these was described.

〈Dragon Soldier’s Art.〉

‘Dragon Soldier’s… Art?’

Elric opened his eyes wide.

What on earth is this?

〈By the time you get this booklet, you will have met or are about to meet the guardian dragon of the Borfur tribe.

However, as far as I know, there is currently no magic related to dragons left in our family or in all of humanity.

Even when you control dragon blood, you will probably make a lot of mistakes. I leave behind a method to control such dragon blood.

‘Yong A-byeong’s liquor’ is a method of raising soldiers that is said to have been made by taking part of a dragon’s own body…〉

Yong A-byeong’s liquor was largely divided into two parts.

One is how to control dragon blood, which tends to get out of control and react uncontrollably.

The other was based on this and dealt with how to be reborn as a strong warrior like the ancient dragon soldiers.

Although Elric vaguely received knowledge from the guardian dragon, it was only written from the dragon’s perspective.

It was difficult to use Elric right away, so it seemed like it would take a lot of time.

It seemed that Woosden had somehow acquired and interpreted these practiced magics.

Should we really say that he is a hero who led the Great War to victory?

Elric couldn’t help but hold his tongue when he saw the vast amount of knowledge he possessed.

More than anything.

‘This… will be of great help not only to me but also to the Star Wars?’

And here, Elric immediately saw through the value of Yongahyeong’s liquor.

According to the guardian dragon’s will, he planned to distribute his flesh to the soldiers and use his scales to make weapons and armor.

However, it seemed that if Yong Ah-byeong’s skills were utilized to a large extent, even the Star Lord could immediately raise his military rank.

‘If it’s something like this, I think I can completely change Franz and Kuranciville, who I was forced to absorb, to my side.’

No matter how dissatisfied they are with Elric, if they are offered a tastier carrot, they will have no choice but to give in.

Of course, there may be someone who betrays you, so you have to choose people to some extent.

Elric sat down holding the book and became absorbed in reading.

Since I had to use it in real life right away, I wanted to learn at least the basic concepts here.

How long has it been like that?

『The man called your grandfather.』

Then, Elric stopped concentrating on the book and turned his attention towards Mephisto when he suddenly said something.

“…?”

『What kind of person was he?』

“Why all of a sudden?”

『Because it doesn’t make sense.』

“Hmm?”

Elric couldn’t help but tilt his head, wondering what he was trying to say.

However, Mephisto did not appear to be playing around.

Even though his face was serious, he was too serious.

『Recovering and reinterpreting a knowledge system of this size to this level is not something that anyone can do. Even if that guy Otto comes back, it’s not possible.』

“….”

『What on earth is this guy?』

Elric had a strange feeling.

Because I was able to see once again how great my grandfather was.

The fact that he was recognized by the Great Demon King is amazing, but it is comparable to Otto Hahn, who is considered an important founder of the family.

The words that he might be even better than that were deeply embedded in my heart.

『I can’t believe there was someone like this even in this era. “Your grandfather is truly amazing.”

The young emotion in Mephisto’s voice was admiration.

『It would have been nice if we could meet in person.』

The corner of Mephisto’s lips twitched.

『A person of this caliber can stand on par with the king. I am very curious about the limits of that knowledge and the end of its power.』

The fangs shined particularly darkly between the wide open lips.

Mephisto was showing his will to win.

The same look I saw one day when I heard about the golden lion.

“Mephie.”

“why? Were you thrilled that this king recognized your grandfather? There is no need for that. Even if the king was originally an enemy, he was not afraid to give appropriate value and praise to outstanding people…!』

“Please be quiet so I can study.”

『…You really can’t look pretty if you look pretty!』

“What’s the point of looking pretty to a man? “I politely decline.”

“joy! Are you confident in receiving the beauty that a woman gives you? A guy who was single from birth!』

“…I guess you said no?”

『A guy who can’t even hold a woman’s hand!』

“There is one?”

『Take it off when you’re a toddler.』

“…I got dumped by a woman and I’ve been dragging my feet for over a thousand years.”

『Even if it’s not like that!』

Elric and Mephisto bickered for a while like always.

Then, Elric thought that if he continued like this, it would really take up all his time, so he finished what he was watching and moved on to the next chapter.

Even if I couldn’t use it right away, I just wanted to check what magic was described in the booklet.

And the second one.

「A bomb that explodes.」

“…?”

What on earth is this incredibly difficult name?

It was hard to guess what kind of magic it was just by looking at the name.

“It is a magic that concentrates pure magical power and explodes it in an instant. I think it will be helpful to you in an emergency…”

Elric’s face became interested.

Explosion magic?

Even Elric knew a lot about this type of magic.

Still, I couldn’t help but be moved by the magic that was said to have been used by the founder.

How powerful is it?

With such a heavy heart, I looked again for a while.

Then.

“….”

Suddenly, Elric’s eyebrows began to narrow little by little.

As if I had encountered some completely unexpected difficulty.

Then, when we reached the final point of the explosion.

‘this.’

Elric had to look up from the booklet with a stiff expression on his face.

‘There has to be a demon seal… right?’

* * *

It wasn’t just Yong Ah-byeong’s drink.

“Three Walls of Thunder.”

“Blessing of the God of War.”

Thunder Wall Se is a technique that explodes a bunch of thunderbolts from the air and wipes out enemies on the ground at once.

God of War’s Protection was a crowd control spell that gave strength to not only the person participating in close combat but also all of his companions.

Even at first glance, it was clear that they were all magic that would be of great help to Elric.

‘I can’t speak right now.’

There was a trap.

Except for Yongahyeong’s magic, all three magics required specific conditions to be used.

‘It’s a dragon’s drink that requires dragon blood, so even so, why are the other things…?’

As Elric, he felt uncomfortable.

If you can’t handle it because you don’t have enough magic power to use it or don’t yet understand how it’s structured, you can at least accept it.

But that’s not it. I can’t use it because I don’t have the demon seal.

Does this make any sense?

‘The explosion bomb can only be handled if there is a type of seal that can amplify demonic energy. To measure the strength of the brain wall, there must be a high-grade seal related to brain energy… Should the God of War’s protection require a combination of several buff-type seals?’

I wondered if these were the only things that happened, so I wanted to look for other magic as well.

However, these are the four magics included in the booklet.

‘The Explosion Bomb can somehow be used with the seal of fame and the seal of murder. But what about other things….’

Elric was confused about many things.

The magic that the founder himself created and used. But the basic condition is seal? Isn’t there something strange?

‘no. There’s nothing strange about it. In the end, Otto Han’s magic and powers could only be used after completing the Winter Seal.’

It occurred to me that perhaps the concept of using magic by absorbing the demon’s seal was not simply a method for rapid growth.

As I had previously guessed, I thought that there might be a deep relationship between the progenitors and the demons.

The relationship is much closer than he thought…

‘Where do I get the seals needed for this?’

Magic that can only be used by combining seals.

Still, I couldn’t just leave these excellent magics alone.

Elric began to seriously consider how to handle these combinations.

While calculating the formula, I started looking back at the genealogy of the demons I had once seen in the family library.

This is to determine which seal and which seal must be combined to complete the power of the brain wall and the divine protection of the war god.

And the conclusion I came to after a while was this.

-Three of the brain wall: Brain Qi (or Brain attribute, such as lightning) system + medium pressure seal.

-Warm God’s Protection: Dragon Fear + Attribute Conversion System + White Soldier System + Seal of Contagion.

The brain wall strength could be used if there was a medium pressure seal that deals with gravity in the brain energy system magic.

‘If the brain energy is compressed to its maximum limit and then released, it will boast tremendous explosive power. And if you can fully control it, you can drop it only in the area you want.’

The God of War’s protection was a little more difficult.

The seal used to raise morale can be replaced with Dragon Fear, but there are not many types of seals that can change the attributes and spread widely to have a positive effect on allies.

‘Furthermore, there is a limit to the number of seals I can accept right now. I need to get my head around it.’

Since I didn’t have much desire for the seal so far, I mostly disassembled it into demonic energy and threw it to Hyul’s thought form or used it to restore Mephisto’s power.

I thought I would have to be a little more careful in the future.

but.

Also, Elric wasn’t too worried.

I don’t know if it was Woosden’s intention or if it happened by chance.

I could vaguely see a way to use the ancestral magic he left behind.

‘Demon lords. I think if we catch the Demon Lords of Grigori, the remaining two will be completed to some extent.’

It’s as if I was able to use the Explosion Bomb by mixing the Seal of Famousness and the Seal of Violence, which I obtained by catching Leda.

I guess.

It occurred to me that there was another reason to hunt down the remaining demon lords more actively.
