Talent-Swallowing Magician - Chapter 283
Part 2 Episode 23
Lion
‘Was Kromhel’s marriage partner the daughter of the Golden Lion?’
The Golden Lion’s words were for his daughter’s sake.
And Cromhel’s scheduled wedding.
Once my thoughts reached this point, everything made sense.
Why did the Golden Lion, who usually did not listen to the imperial family, come here in person?
In this case, there was no way to persuade the Golden Lion.
‘This is going crazy.’
While Elric was silent, the golden lion moved for the first time.
* * *
‘also. ‘It’s such a waste to kill.’
The golden lion thought as he looked at the man in front of him.
The reason for thinking so was no different.
This was because his skills were far superior to his age.
‘Just hearing your voice makes me think you’re still young.’
At least in your twenties.
At most, he would only be in his early thirties.
However, the skills shown by the ice masked man were second to none not only in the Magic Tower but also in the Lion House.
‘Close combat isn’t bad either.’
Has anyone recently waved his ‘lion’s first claw’ like this?
and.
Above all, there were many things that stimulated his curiosity.
For example, the devil that I showed you just now, or the ability to freely manipulate divine power and magical power.
‘I think I heard there was a similar person.’
The Golden Lion vaguely remembered hearing about an incident that took place in the eastern part of the country, but stopped thinking because he couldn’t recall the details.
To begin with, he was not a person who cared much about external affairs.
‘Is it okay to catch him and ask him about it?’
Judging from his actions so far, it doesn’t seem like he will follow me along, so I planned to find out who he was and ask him slowly.
The moment the golden lion takes his steps.
Quaaaaa!
‘Hoo?’
Elric stood up with great energy.
‘Do you still have the strength left to fight further?’
〈Launch Control – Stage 2〉
The same magic was activated once again in a situation that was already putting enormous strain on the body.
Then, the magic circuit started to run wild as if it was going to burn out, and my vision began to spin.
His ability had already been raised to its limit, so it was beyond what his body could endure.
“Sigh…!”
Elric managed to control his trembling body and regain his balance.
“You must be crazy!”
“If you do any more than that…!”
I immediately heard the voices of Nahatram and Mia.
Elric didn’t care at all and raised his divine power.
Quad deud deuk.
The ground Elric was standing on broke apart and his hair began to flutter.
As if defying gravity, the laws of physics in the surrounding area were shaken, causing pieces of stone to float into the air.
‘We have to make the most of our time!’
This is the bar that directly encountered the golden lion.
It was impossible to stop him with his current skills.
But at least I could take my time.
‘Then I’ll be able to run away a little longer.’
I’m so tired!
Elric breathed the raised divine power into the spear.
And at that moment,
Kwaaaang!
Elric flew towards the golden lion at explosive speed.
The Golden Lion exclaimed in admiration as he saw Elric like that.
“I can’t believe there’s more to show you there. hmm! It’s definitely a waste to just kill him. but.”
The Golden Lion nodded and clenched his fist.
“It’s because I can’t tell when to attack and when not to.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Elric came right in front of him and thrust out his spear.
Huh!
The golden lion moved its head slightly to avoid the attack and then stretched out its fist.
“…!”
Kwaaaaang!
There was no time for Elric to react.
There seemed to be a flash of something, and when I came to my senses, Elric was thrown to the ground.
At the same time, I felt all the strength drain from my body.
Both magic and spiritual power showed their bottom at once.
“Wow!”
Kiyuyuyuyu!
It was then that the dragons appeared.
The baby dragons were spouting their breath and attacking the golden lion, as if trying to avenge Elric.
“Now even dragons? haha!”
Even though it was within the Dragon Fear’s sphere of influence, the Golden Lion appeared unharmed.
He said it was a little itchy.
“I was wondering what I should bring as a wedding present for my daughter. “It caught something good.”
When the golden lion stretched out his hand towards the baby dragons, the baby dragons rolled their eyes and fell due to the powerful air pressure.
“damn…!”
“Stay still.”
It was at that time that the golden lion was about to approach this way to completely subdue Elric, who was trying to get up while gritting his teeth.
Damn it!
Because all of his magic power was gone, the mask Elric was wearing fell apart.
“hmm?”
At that moment, the golden lion’s steps stopped.
For the first time, he narrowed his eyebrows and expressed his embarrassment.
“you…!”
The Golden Lion looked at Elric’s face carefully and said incredulously.
“Blonde hair… Green eyes… Is it really Mervinger?”
A completely unexpected reaction.
“That’s right…!”
It was the moment when Elric was about to reply.
thud!
Suddenly, my heart started beating so crazy that I couldn’t speak.
Thump thump thump thump!
The blood throughout my body was flowing rapidly. My vision gradually became blurry.
‘What on earth is this…?’
That time when you wonder what happened to you.
Whoa!
The vision was reversed and the inner world appeared in an instant.
I looked around and saw everyone from Mia to Damir looking surprised.
“What about your body? Are you okay?”
“It can’t be okay! I used that much strength. Crazy bastard. No matter how much he resembles Otto Hahn…! Be similar to others. “How could you do something like that there…!”
“Everyone please come out.”
Mia squeezed in between Damir and Nahatram, who were saying a word at a time.
“If we continue like this. really. Dangerous.”
Mia grumbled in an irritated voice as she checked Elric’s pulse. She, who normally didn’t express her feelings well, seemed very angry at the irresponsible behavior Elric had shown so far.
In fact, this alone meant that she was incredibly angry.
“…sorry.”
Elric looked at Mia who was checking his pulse. I couldn’t bear to look at Damir, who was sighing heavily, and Nahatram, who was nervously scratching the back of his head.
After a while, Mia sighed in relief and spoke.
“still. Luckily enough to die. no.”
The aftereffects will be enormous.
Elric seemed to know what Mia didn’t add.
I didn’t know that I would probably have to focus on Jeongyang for several months, perhaps even years.
“But… why did you suddenly call me here?”
I knew that the flow of time in the inner world was very different from the external world.
However, it is still impossible to completely stop time.
I didn’t know if something serious would happen if my nerves were diverted in this situation where the clock was ticking.
Even more so when you’re dealing with a monster like the Golden Lion.
“If I had left it alone, it would most likely have died.”
“For now, retreat.”
Elric was silent for a moment when Damir and Nahatram spoke instead of Mia.
He knew it too.
The gap between the Golden Lion’s skills and his own is so great that he can’t even imagine.
But Elric spoke firmly.
“…I can’t do that.”
“what?”
“If I leave here, people will have no place to go on holidays.”
Damir crossed his arms and asked in a low voice.
“Then are you willing to give your life for them?”
“It may be that difficult, but…”
Elric continued, trailing off.
“I want to at least protect what my grandfather protected.”
As Elric finished speaking, the eyes of the vassals met at the same time.
‘After all, Mervinger is Mervinger.’
‘It doesn’t go beyond what I expected.’
Distant past. Because the auto cars they drove were not much different.
Although he always seemed to be very playful, he was actually deeper and more serious than anyone else.
He also did not spare his life for the things he wanted to protect.
Elric said he had no intention of risking his life, but they knew.
They just say things like that.
If a situation arises that requires that, I will step forward before anyone else.
Just looking at the battle with the Golden Lion, it was like that.
Elric tried to fight the Golden Lion by gathering enough strength to the point where his body suffered.
Even if it affects your life.
Mia sighed as if there was nothing she could do and spoke to Elric.
“Follow me.”
“…yes?”
“Follow me.”
At Mia’s words, Elric got up and followed her.
“But I’m outside…!”
“There is a solution. there is. therefore.”
Don’t talk nonsense, just follow me.
Elric slightly widened his eyes.
Is there perhaps another arrangement that he was not aware of?
“Where are we going?”
“abyss.”
Mia said only that and kept her mouth shut.
As if he couldn’t tell me in more detail.
* * *
“Aaaah!”
“Help me! Help me!”
“Is there anyone? Anyone is welcome, so please…!”
Tasha was looking at the holiday section with a blank expression at the beginning of the section.
“What the hell is this…!”
I wondered what was going on.
Just in case, I urged the coachman to come quickly.
Still, I never expected anything like this.
If hell exists, would it look like this?
The entire village was on fire, and the villagers were devastated and did not know what to do.
Tasha felt like her heart was becoming suffocated by the terrible scene.
It was at that time that a scream for help was heard not far away.
“Please help me here! “My daughter… my daughter is trapped in there!”
When I turned my head, I saw a woman kneeling and sobbing in front of a burned down house.
Tasha’s organ is fire. She ran there without any hesitation.
Grumble!
With a single wave of her hand, Tasha blew the fire burning the house into the sky and entered the building that was about to collapse.
“Ugh! mom!”
It wasn’t long before they found the burned girl locked in the room.
“are you okay. “It’s okay, don’t worry.”
Tasha safely rescued the child and gave it to her mother.
“thank you! thank you!”
The woman kept her head down and hurriedly followed the others to evacuate.
“What is really happening?”
It was a time when Tasha breathed a sigh of relief but could not hide her frustrated feelings.
Sreung!
With the sound of a blade, a dagger was aimed at her neck.
When on earth did they catch me? No matter how urgent the moment was, I couldn’t feel anything.
In an instant, Tasha’s expression hardened. The energy of the person standing behind him was unusual.
“…what?”
“I see him using magic, so he appears to be from the Empire. Am I right?”
Who on earth is this person?
Tasha answered slowly, concentrating her magic in her fingertips.
“then?”
“then.”
The voice became cold.
“die.”
That was when the revolutionary assassin was about to plunge a dagger into Tasha’s neck.
“Lady, bow down!”
A voice came from the other side. Tasha quickly ducked down.
And a fireball flew by.
Kwaaaaang!
The assassin was seen jumping back.
“Good job Hanabi!”
Tasha activated the magic by praising the secretary for being helpful for the first time in a long time.
The blue flame that erupted from the fingertips quickly took the shape of a huge bird.
The king of the flame-type spirits who gave her the honor of being a trinity.
Pyooooo-!
Tasha was engulfed in blue flames and aimed her magic at the assassin who was still breathing.
“…Your magic skills are quite good.”
The assassin smiled coldly as he lightly extinguished the flames trying to catch on to his body.
And then the face is revealed.
His face was covered with scars, as if he had been through many battlefields, and he had an eyepatch over one eye.
At that moment, Tasha’s face hardened.
This was because I knew right away who the other person was.
One of the highest-ranking figures among those wanted by the empire as public enemies.
“…Jeff from ‘Blue Eyes’.”
Free Revolutionary Army.
It was the appearance of a corps commander who was one of only a few among those called ‘rebels’ in the empire.
