The 31st Piece Turns the Tables - Chapter 421
Chapter 421:
The Aeolian who was crushed under the feet of the Dark One did not struggle to survive.
As soon as he was freed from the invincibility he had gained through his powers, he extinguished the spark of life.
The Aeolian let out a long, thin breath.
“Finally… liberation…”
“Eoriaan! Defend me! Day… Day….”
Tap…
[Forced Guardian Aeorian has been defeated.]
[The power of Aeorian is returned to Maradum.]
[Maradum awakens new power.]
[You will receive additional rewards.]
Whirly!
The black pillar returned somewhere.
and.
Tuk.
Snowfall coming through scheduled gate.
His indifferent gaze met that of the despairing Maradum.
Broken…
Another crack appeared on the Stone of Time in Maradum’s hand.
“It can’t be like this. “I am an almighty wizard!”
Light emanated from the Stone of Time in Maradum’s hand.
The goal is snowfall.
Hu Woo-woong … The
snowfall
lightly avoided the beam and then ….
Maradum’s arm was cut off.
“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!”
“… I aimed for the stone.”
With this one move, Maradum’s current situation was clearly revealed.
I will die before the next ten count.
“Inferior ones… how dare… how dare… against time!”
Just as Kang Seol was about to swing his sword again, Maradum, who thought everything was over, used his last resort.
[Maradum uses the charged ash to cause disaster.]
[Maradum uses a temporal cocoon.]
[You are protected by the power of time.]
[Temporal rupture will activate soon.]
Wheeoooo… Maradum
is engulfed in an incredibly strange blue light. Funny enough, everyone thought the light was beautiful.
Pajijik…
That was when Snowfall was about to unleash a barrage of slashes aimed at the place where Maradum was.
“stop! “Leave this place to me.”
“… what?”
Kugugugung…
Maradum’s magic has been activated.
“Everyone stop.”
[Maradum uses time rupture.]
[Everything with will comes to a halt.]
[You can resist with will.]
Huaaaaaaaa!
As the blue light burst out, everything stopped as if it were a moment in a photograph.
Objects and living things.
Those who had the will tried to resist Maradum’s magic.
Although I couldn’t move my body, I retained consciousness for a while.
‘Why… did you stop him?’
‘Why on earth…’
Everyone thought that and lost consciousness.
So after a while.
flinch…
swoosh…
flinch
… swoosh
…
blah blah blah…
Ur’s body froze.
And then I took a step forward.
Ur was moving.
Alone in a world where everyone has stopped.
The reason he stopped Snowfall’s attack was quite justifiable to him.
If the time cocoon was forcibly destroyed, it could cause chaos in the timeline.
If that happens, they will be wasting time here for months until they can retrieve the coordinates of Star’s End they originally crossed over from.
Of course, there wasn’t enough time to explain all the reasons, so I couldn’t explain them in that short period of time.
Still, it was truly fortunate that Kang Seol listened to his words and stopped attacking.
However, it does not mean that Kang Seol’s method was wrong.
No, it was generally correct.
If it had been a normal raid instead of Snowfall and Ur to deal with Maradum, I would have chosen that method.
And I must have thought as I wasted several months here.
You chose the most correct option.
Because I don’t know any other way.
But Ur knew.
How to get back without wasting unnecessary time here.
Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk
tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk…
Ur moving slowly like a snail crawling.
Maradum, the world, and phenomena all stopped. Meanwhile, Urman moved. Why can he move?
If Maradum was still conscious, he would have screamed.
Because the monster in front of him was slowly approaching to kill him.
Kikik…
Kikigikkik…
Ur’s body was not being moved directly by Ur.
The magical frost surrounding his body was moving him.
The source of the roaring magic.
It was living magic itself.
Even if all the wizards in Pandea were lined up, Ur would be the only one capable of such a feat.
He is loved by magical powers.
– Let’s do something. Wizard.
There was still quite a gap between Maradum and Ur. Nevertheless, Ur thought that he could definitely reach Maradum.
There is nothing crazy like this anywhere else. Regardless of whether this was possible or impossible, Ur chose the overwhelmingly difficult route simply to save time.
Ur is that kind of person.
Perhaps the word incomprehensible is a word prepared for Ur, not the Stone of Time.
Sigh…
It seemed like the position of Maradum’s pupils had changed slightly. Perhaps his will was still alive.
– … I know you are watching, wizard.
Ur was confident of victory.
– See me victorious. And lose.
Blah blah blah…
Blah blah…
The frost men advanced mercilessly.
But even for a moment.
– … this.
Squeak…
clunk! The body that was caught.
Ur realized that something had gone wrong.
– This consumes more magical power than I thought…
He had reached the highest level, but he was not yet in a perfect state.
This was not talking about a state.
It’s a simple number.
To put it accurately, Ur was practically naked.
Ur was wearing clothes that could only serve as simple clothing, not proper equipment appropriate for his rank.
It was literally the embodiment of arrogance.
That became a problem.
– … I’ll have to think of a way.
Ur pondered.
The great wizard will find his way again.
From birth until now, he has done everything alone.
There was absolutely no genuine cooperation with anyone. The reason he helped Snow Seol from time to time was for his own sake.
It was definitely not for snowfall.
– I need to replenish my magic power.
Magical power…
Magical power…
There was no magical power in this place that Ur could covet.
The magic wizard Maradum also had the characteristic of being able to use time magic, but he himself was not that great of a wizard. …at least in Ur’s opinion.
– … No, there is.
There was still a hot lump of magical energy nearby. For Ur, who could see magic, the presence of magic felt too hot.
– Snowfall…
kiggeek…
I felt like I could reach Snowfall if I barely managed to squeeze out the remaining magical energy from now on.
And if you take Kang Seol’s body and move forward…
no, no.
– That way… no.
That way, it was impossible to reach Maradum.
Think about it.
You have to think.
Ur supreme wizard.
– … ah.
I remembered.
I thought about it.
And I was frustrated.
The method he came up with was something he had never tried before and did not want to try.
But in the current situation, that was the only way.
– …Can I do it?
Would a guy like me be able to share half of himself with others?
Ur hesitated.
Still, I had to do it.
Because whoever has the name Ur will definitely win.
Jeok Jeok Jeok
Jeok Jeok Jeok Jeok Jeok Jeok…
His arms were placed on Kang Seol’s shoulders.
– Can you hear the snowfall?
There was no way I could answer.
No matter how strong his will was, he could not be superior to Ur.
It seems like even he will lose consciousness at any moment due to the passage of time.
– I have never understood anyone. That someone includes you, Kang Seol.
I hesitated.
As far as he knew, this method was only possible when both parties relied on each other.
Kang Seol’s feelings were unknown, and his heart was also firm.
– I thought he was a lucky guy. By some luck, it crawled into Alkatron, and by luck, it reached me, and by luck, it took me.
Ur’s muttering continued.
– I was lucky enough to gain strength, and I was lucky enough to survive. Somehow I was lucky enough to overcome hardships, and sometimes I was lucky enough to grow. How did you really… you achieved everything you wanted?
Ur paused for a moment, loathing himself.
– Yeah, that doesn’t even sound like a saying. There is no such luck anywhere in the world.
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssing…
A chill gushed out through Ur’s palm.
– A lot of time has passed since I met you. I still don’t understand you. No, maybe forever. But…
slurp…
both his hands went to Kang Seol’s back. Change began around there.
– I respect you now.
Kwaaaaaa!
[Take on the form of the mage ‘Frost Storm Ur’ and the raven.]
[Absorb the abilities of ‘Frost Storm Ur’.]
[Communication is lacking.]
[You are in an unstable state.]
…
Blah blah blah.. .
The situation feels like it will just bounce off as it is due to lack of internal assimilation with Snowfall.
A tremendous energy emanated from Ur.
– Don’t be funny. That’s all you interpret.
[The magic power of Ur, the frost storm, is activated.]
[Interpreting the season: Raven.]
[Interpreting the season.]
…
Magical power was rampaging at every moment. But even for a moment.
…
[Season interpretation is complete.]
Whioooooooooo…
Unlike other ravens, which had sharp or angular shapes, the shape of Urwa’s raven was somewhat blunt.
A body that looks like it was made by kneading clay. Until the body sways with a steady flow like a fluid.
Gooooo…
Blue chill was constantly radiating from its eyes and mouth.
Ur wondered if this form might be the closest to magic.
[Occupation: Mage status.]
[Shadow hand is changing.]
[You can use frozen truth.]
[You can use magic.]
[Spell power increases significantly.]
[Magic power This increases significantly.]
[The magic recovery rate increases significantly.]
– Hey, snowfall. Can you hear me? This feels a little…
There was no answer from Kang Seol.
Ur was used to being alone.
– … What happened? By the way, this magical power…
The magical power of Snowfall greatly exceeded Ur’s expectations. He possessed monstrous magical power, as if he had eaten a dragon.
To begin with, it was Snowfall wearing a lot of extremely rare equipment. How much effort did it take to acquire this level of magical power?
Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk
tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk…
Step by step, the raven headed towards Maradum.
It’s still an uncomfortable walk, but it’s much better.
– It would be right for time magic to disappear from the world… It doesn’t make sense.
Even though it is an opponent that can be overwhelmed, it is not easy to go against the flow.
I arrived at Urga Maradum’s time cocoon, thinking that they were really troublesome guys.
And then he placed his hand on the protective shield.
[The magic spell of Ur, the frost storm, is activated.]
[Interpreting the time cocoon]
[Interpreting the magic.]
…
It took time to interpret, perhaps because the calculation itself was slow.
No, it wasn’t just time that was wasted.
– Ugh… It even takes away your magic power.
In the first place, Ur’s magic was exhausted, and Snowfall’s magic power was quite wasted as it was tested variously against the Aeolians.
As it was not in the best condition, the horsepower was also negligible.
[Magic interpretation has been completed.]
The moment the cocoon opens.
Tuung…
A simple shock of magic flowing from Maradum.
It was a magic trap set in advance, assuming the moment the cocoon would be released.
at all.
I didn’t expect it at all.
– Ugh… Oh my…
Ur blamed himself.
It’s been a long time since the word failure came to mind.
This is a mistake.
A fatal mistake with no excuse.
When dealing with a time wizard, several times more concentration was needed than usual. Absolute concentration and overwhelming skill were the only ways to deal with them.
But, unfortunately, I just lost focus for a moment.
bounces off
If that happens, it will either die or wither forever. No, that was the worst outcome and Ur would find a way.
The problem is that even if a way is found, it will be an era later.
I remembered the time when I was imprisoned in Alcatron again. That long time.
– That’s… I don’t like it…
Ur’s ominous predictions were always right.
Touuung…
His mind was about to jump out of the raven.
But at that very moment.
Whioooo…
Something strongly sucked him in and put him back in place.
– … what?
Huaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The night raven’s eyes turned blue. A wave of power more powerful than anything Ur could control flowed from his body.
and.
Pit…
A sharp hand severed Maradum’s one remaining arm.
Ur just quietly watched this entire process.
– Snowfall… You didn’t lose consciousness.
Whoa…
That must have been Kang Seol’s final struggle, as the blue light soon faded from the raven’s eyes.
– …unknown guy. Still, you have more experience than me?
One thing that was beyond his expectations.
It was the presence of snowfall.
And here, something unexpected happens again.
Tap…
Degurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr of the bead…
The beads rolled.
