Talent-Swallowing Magician - Chapter 376

Part 2 Episode 116

Dragon and Demon

“Ugh!”

Elric grabbed his head.

It was because my mind became complicated and at the same time, I got a terrible headache.

I couldn’t think of anything.

I don’t know what my name is or what I’m doing here.

It felt like someone was rummaging through my mind trying to keep me from remembering anything.

“Elric!”

“Are you okay?”

Sean and King Yulho came to their senses late and rushed towards him.

From the moment Mervinger said something, Elric’s condition looked bad.

They thought that Mervinger had placed some kind of curse on Elric.

“Elric! “Why on earth are you doing this?”

As soon as King Yulho arrived, he grabbed Elric by the shoulders and shook him roughly.

But even so, Elric never came to his senses.

He was in pain just a little while ago.

Before he knew it, he was looking into space with unfocused eyes and muttering softly.

“…Elic? “Who is Elric?”

The problem was that the condition became more serious.

Beyond the confusion about who he is, he has now completely lost his identity.

“Elic, come to your senses!”

Even Sean shouted in an urgent voice, but it was no use.

“I… who the hell am I?”

It’s still just spitting out words that I don’t understand.

“You bastard… what have you done to Elric!”

“….”

King Yulho looked at Mervinger and growled.

But before he knew it, he was just keeping silent with his face completely covered by his robe.

For some reason, it doesn’t make any moves and doesn’t even seem to have any intention of attacking.

King Yulho decided that there was no need to fight even though Elric was in bad condition.

I continued to look at Elric with Sean.

Meanwhile, Elric’s condition worsened further.

“Who am I…”

“Who are you, Elric Mervinger!”

“What on earth are you worrying about!”

The moment when the two people kept trying to wake Elric up.

Pajik Pajijik!

Elric’s body bounced violently as if a bomb had exploded inside him, and an unusual energy began to flow out.

“…!”

“…!”

Even though both of them are strong people that people recognize.

Just encountering the energy gave me goosebumps all over my body.

I could also feel a deep sense of fear rising from beneath my feet.

A sense of helplessness in the face of purely overwhelming power.

In particular, Sean’s expression was not good.

‘no way…!’

That’s because it was a feeling I only felt when I happened to encounter Sijo in the past.

Sean and King Yulho’s faces hardened and they exchanged glances for a brief moment.

It’s dangerous like this.

It was a time when we shared these thoughts about coming together and subduing Elric.

Quaaaaa –

an enormous amount of magical energy burst out from Elric’s body.

“Tsk!”

“What is this…!”

King Yulho and Sean were pushed away for a long time without even thinking about approaching Elric.

Just maintaining balance can be overwhelming.

The thought of running into Elric was unthinkable.

No matter how much strength I exerted, fear erased all my strength like a lie, as if it were making fun of it.

It even protected them unconsciously, shaking the air to the point that it stung their skin.

But even in the meantime.

Mervinger seemed to maintain the same posture throughout.

“What the heck is that guy…”

Should we say that Elric’s energy wave only avoids him?

It was as if he was a separate person from another world.

For a moment, King Yulho felt doubtful.

Let’s go!

Elric’s power began to surge more intensely.

As the demonic energy spread unstable, it started a riot.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

Every time the demonic energy swept everywhere like a whip, everything it touched was destroyed.

Parts of the castle were completely destroyed, with fragments flying everywhere.

“Am I Mephisto… or am I a demon…”

Elric was unable to come to his senses despite the chaos.

Coo coo coo coo –

Dark clouds formed in the empty sky, making the world dark.

Qarring! Kwarung!

A strong wind began to blow, accompanied by thunder and lightning that seemed to split the sky.

Meanwhile, the power exploding around Elric grew stronger.

Sean and King Yulho did not give up and raised their voices and called for Elric.

But their voices were completely drowned out by the sound of thunder and wind.

on the other side.

The demons were growing more religious as they saw Elric like that.

To those who didn’t know the circumstances, it seemed like he was drawing on his strength to deal with the leader of the dragon army.

Elric’s power was even turning the sky upside down.

The demons were amazed at the enormous power and were already confident of victory and were intoxicated with it.

Because of this, their faith grew even bigger, and because of this, Elric’s rampage became more and more intense.

And at some point.

Flash!

A light so intense that it was difficult to open his eyes erupted from Elric’s body.

Kwakwakwakwa –

At some point, Elric’s figure was completely buried in the shadows and disappeared. Instead, the shape of a huge monster appeared, covering even the sky.

“…!”

“That thing…!”

Everyone around them could not help but be surprised when they saw it.

A body that far exceeds the size of the castle.

And the terrifying magical energy flowing from there. No darkness.

I wondered if darkness and shadows would have personalities like that.

Demon God.

It was the moment when the true form of the beginning of all demons and their source was revealed.

“Demon God!”

“Demon God!”

The shadow of the demon god covered the whole world.

The demons put down their weapons and began to bow towards Elric.

Their expressions were full of awe.

Sreuk –

It was then that Mervinger, who had been quiet until now, moved.

He pulled back his robe and looked up at the Demon God with an expressionless face.

“…Elic?”

When King Yulho saw Mervinger’s face for the first time, his expression hardened.

Because it seemed like the guy who was supposed to be in the form of a demon god was here.

“What the hell is this…?”

He couldn’t help but stare at Mervinger’s face for a long time.

* * *

“….”

Elric slowly opened his eyes.

A place full of darkness where nothing can be seen.

But even for a moment.

My eyesight gradually recovered and I began to see things around me.

Snap!

An infinite space filled with shallow black water.

Every time I moved my body, the light sound of water echoed quietly.

It was a strange yet familiar place.

Sea of unconsciousness.

It was also the place where we met Hargan.

However, it felt very different from then.

More insidious and darker….

And there was one more thing that was different from usual.

‘My arms are transparent.’

When I looked down at my arm, I saw that my hand had become translucent enough to show the other side.

The same thing happens when you turn your palm over.

This time, I raised my hand up to block the sky, but as expected, the dark sky was clearly visible through my palm.

This wasn’t the only thing.

Because his entire body had turned translucent.

‘The boundary between the physical body and the unconscious is blurred.’

I heard it from Mia.

-Relax. Hold on tight. If you let go. as it is. It melts.

When I was trying hard to cross the sea of unconsciousness to meet Hargan.

Didn’t Mia give advice to Elric as he was getting more and more tired?

If you are not careful, you may lose yourself in the world of unconsciousness and never wake up.

Moreover, now, during the conversation with Mervinger, I was strongly influenced and dragged into the world of unconsciousness.

Naturally, the aftermath was bound to be bigger than usual.

“What really happens outside?”

It’s probably clear that a body that has completely become a demon is running wild outside.

I couldn’t figure out whether that would be good or bad for Elric.

So I tried to get out of my inner world.

“…It doesn’t work.”

I couldn’t move as if I was blocked by a solid wall.

In fact, it was now difficult to even maintain such a translucent shape.

“So what should we really do now?”

Mervinger. I think I need to talk to that guy some more.

If the current situation continues for a long time, anything could happen.

‘Because maintaining the form of a demon god can never be good for the soul.’

That was when Elric thought so.

Wow –

the calm sea of unconsciousness rippled.

I turned my head towards the sound.

Then the shallow water moved even more and a water column the size of a person arose.

“…!”

Elric glared at it with great caution.

No movement at all.

But for some reason, Elric couldn’t shake the feeling that something inside the water column was watching him.

Flash!

At that moment, two eyes opened.

The eyes were looking straight at Elric.

and.

Tsutsutsu –

The water column slowly began to take shape.

It had a human-like appearance, a pair of wings sprouted out, and three horns sprouted from its head.

Only then did Elric realize.

The fact that the being in front of me is no one else but a demon god.

An external appearance that is completely identical to the body he occupied before entering the inner world.

Is that why?

For some reason, Elric had the illusion that he was looking at a mirror.

He crossed his arms and stared at Elric quietly, then opened his mouth.

“It’s nice to meet you like this, descendant.”

“…!”

His voice resonated loudly throughout the inner world.

Just by quietly listening, I feel like my whole body is being weighed down.

Whether it should be called ‘God’ or not, each word contained intense power.

However, another word weighed heavily on Elric’s heart.

-descendant.

Since Mervinger is the progenitor of all magic, it was easy to predict that the demon god, the source of magic, was also a type of Mervinger.

Still, after hearing it in person, I felt strange.

So I had no choice but to ask.

“Who are you? “Why do I feel the scent of Mephisto so strongly on you?”
