The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant - Chapter 118

Episode 118

“Just a little more…!!!”

“Damn, I’m at my limit now! “Take a hold of it!!!”

Kwahia Ah- !!!

The surface of the lake exploded, sending spray in all directions.

The water from the lake pouring down like rain fell to the ground, and Den and Seongwoo, who were running while getting hit by the water, let out heavy breaths.

“The only thing you know how to do is fireball?”

“…That’s the only fire attribute magic I can use. “I didn’t know that monster was resistant to ice magic.”

Dan, sweating profusely despite the bitter cold, exhaled heavily and spoke.

“I thought it would work because the ice magic becomes stronger due to the cold… but there is no way to pierce its skin.”

“What kind of revealer is this? “Somin shoots out strange fireworks.”

“…We are fighting for our lives together, so should we be compared to that kid here too?”

Den Howl, who took refuge on a rock jutting out from the lakeside, laughed bitterly at the voice actor’s scolding.

Thump-thud-thud-

Shalum’s footsteps were heard.

[Crrrrr….]

The monster sleeping in the lake was moving in search of prey with a low growl.

“That child’s magic is special. Wizards have their own temperament. Even though I am a revealer, I am not excellent at all attributes, and my specialty is ice…”

“Avoid!!!”

Seongwoo pulled Den’s collar.

Den’s crouching body leaned forward and the two tumbled down to the bottom of the lake.

“Tsk…!”

The moment Den hugs the back of his head that was hit by the gravel and cries out,

Kwakang! Kwaaaaang–!

With a burst of drinking, the place where the two had been a moment ago was blown away mercilessly.

“I don’t have time to listen to explanations right now, any magic will do, so let’s find a way to tie that guy up!”

Den Howl nodded at the voice actor’s words.

“…cough.”

It was then.

Den suddenly fell to his knees, clutching his chest.

“Damn… If I had known a world like this would come, I would have at least exercised instead of staying in the lab.”

Den gasped and smiled bitterly.

‘…Can I do it?’

He looked at his trembling palms and exhaled deeply.

Even though I received the voice actor’s protection, I could feel my magic power gradually decreasing.

Even in the cold, sweat was beading on his forehead as if his body was exhausted.

‘At first, I thought it was a place for me… but it turned out to be the worst place for me.’

Since he used cold magic, the cold of Seolgwi Mountain clearly had the effect of enhancing the power of the magic.

But ironically, the monsters here also had superior cold resistance thanks to the cold.

Rather, his magic didn’t work.

[Crook]

He looked at Shalum walking towards him with a nervous face.

“…Why did the Wanderer of the Four Seasons choose this place as my battlefield?” With his heart feeling like it was going to explode at any moment

,

he grabbed the robe around his chest.

At that moment, Shalum stood in front of the two people.

The two pairs of protruding molars twitched as if they were laughing at him.

[Kyaaaah!!!]

At the same time, Shalum jumped into the air and clashed the two axes he was holding.

Kaang!!

Crackling…! It’s so crazy…!!

Then, blue electricity erupted from the blade of the axe.

Wooooow-!

A green barrier appeared above Den’s hands brought together in front of him.

Wow-!!

However, the moment Shalum’s ax touched Den’s shield, it shattered into vain pieces.

The two people’s bodies were thrown away due to the impact.

“Keuuuhhh…!!”

Shalum grabbed Den’s legs as he fell.

Dan tried to escape its grasp, but instead it grabbed his leg and started dragging him into the lake.

“no…!!”

Seongwoo hurriedly threw himself away, but at that moment, Shalum’s ax flew out.

Wow!

The flying ax was deeply embedded in the rock.

Gulp –

He was lucky enough to pass by Den, but his body was slowed down by the debuff of Seolgwisan, and he knew he couldn’t avoid Shalum’s ax twice.

“…shit!!”

My body didn’t move.

The moment he saw Shalum’s eyes glaring at him as if warning him, he realized that the bastard had thrown the ax too far on purpose.

“Hwaaaah!!!”

Den, who was being dragged, struggled to raise his cane.

Damn…!

bang! bang!! Kwakang!!!

The floor cracked and ice thorns came out, targeting Shalum’s legs.

Pash…!!

However, the sharp thorns were broken as they hit Shalum’s scales in vain.

Wood-duk-!

“Aaaahhh!!!”

Shalum twisted the leg he was dragging as if Den’s resistance was laughable.

Den screamed in pain along with the sound of bones breaking.

Bubbling.

As we approached the top, unlike the blizzard climate, the lake was shaking and bubbling like boiling water.

[Crunch… Cluck….]

Shalum grinned at Den.

Den closed his eyes tightly.

It was then.

Wow-!!

The moment the guy was about to throw Den down into the lake, Shalum’s head was thrown back and he lost hold of Den’s leg and fell.

“…!!”

The sword trembled as it was stabbed precisely into Shalum’s forehead, which was stretched wide.

“Don’t blame your status too much. “It’s not the Four Seasons Wanderer who decided on this damn place.”

Den could not hide his relief and bitter expression when he saw Namgoong appear behind him.

“I was already cursing inside.”

“You’re crying.”

Namgung chuckled as he looked at Den.

“What are you doing?”

“…?”

At Namgung’s words, Den widened his eyes, wondering if he was speaking to himself.

“It’s not just a matter of physical strength. Damage accumulated due to depletion of mana.

“Why are you here…?”

Den looked puzzled by the unexpected appearance of Aira Michel.

“The buff that is currently in effect… It’s the ability of Military Myth, right? “It’s a great ability, but it’s not all-powerful.”

Woowoung ….

The light powder soaked around Den, and the surprisingly painful breathing came back quickly.

“Rather, you could say it’s similar to a drug. “Rather than actually improving one’s physical abilities, it is closer to making one forget the pain of limitations.”

She said, withdrawing her hand.

“It only took a moment for my breathing to return. Even if you treat your body, it doesn’t mean you can restore your magic power. If you push yourself further than this, the magic core inside your body may break. “Don’t ask me to fix it then.”

As if drawing a line in advance, Eira cleared her throat, glanced at Namgung, and turned her head.

“Thank you…?”

Den, who was answering, turned his head and tilted his head slightly when he saw the blue bruise on her face.

“…I’m grateful and that’s it.”

“Aren’t you dead yet?”

“I’m dying. Even now, my heart is still beating loudly. “I just fainted for a moment because a knife was stuck in my head.”

“That’s called fainting…?”

The voice actor looked bewildered at Eira’s words.

“How do you feel about dealing with Shalum?”

“It was terrible. First of all, that monster… magic doesn’t work. However, physical attacks are not particularly effective. “It’s similar to the Ice Troll’s ice scales, but much stronger and doesn’t disappear.”

“I guess so. Ancient trolls are also great shamans. Not only can it maintain its ice scales, which are the hallmark of ice trolls, but it is also highly resistant to magic.”

“Then how do I catch it?”

“No matter how great a shaman is, he cannot use infinite magic. “The fact that it is possible means that there is a source.”

“The source? How did you do that?…”

“That’s why I came.”

At that moment, Namgung lifted up a blue stone and showed it to him.

“Where did I get this…”

Den, a wizard, could immediately feel the powerful magic felt from the heart of ice.

The magical power that took one’s breath away just by looking at it must have been so fascinating to him.

“Within the heart of ice, the magic accumulated over many years is refined. “It’s impossible to get it at this point.”

A magical power so pure that it gives you goosebumps emanating from within the heart.

‘If you use that…’

You might be able to break down the wall that has been blocking you until now.

Gulp –

Den swallowed dry saliva without realizing it.

‘Maybe I can open the second page of the Book of Leah.’

No maybe not.

It is certainly.

When he became the revelator of the Wanderer of the Four Seasons, a book was planted in Den Howl’s mind.

The grimoire named after the name of the god of his status was not only his qualifications as an archmage, but also the power that allowed him to use powerful magic.

It was a magic book with a total of 5 chapters, but the only page he had turned so far was the first chapter.

“There are two people who can use this. You and me. As you know, if you use this, your magical power will be amplified, and if I use it, the blood vessels in my body will circulate and you will achieve an effect comparable to the bone transformation.”

At his words, Aira Michelle looked at him with an expression of ‘Me?’, but Namgung did not pay any attention to her and spoke to Den again.

“Who should write it?”

‘If you get that… you can increase your magic power by one level. If that happens, I might be able to kill Shalum, right? Then, I also have a chance…’

But

Den Howl bit his lip.

“…That’s a naughty question.”

Although it was only for a moment, he felt sorry for himself for thinking that way.

‘Den Howl… How far down are you willing to fall? ‘You’re coveting the heart he brought to the subject you were trying to frame.’

As Namgung said, if Jomo had seen herself in such a pitiful state, she might have said that she would rather lose her memories.

“You deserve to use it.”

Den Howl answered in a low voice.

“i think so too. Because at this point, there is no better elixir than this. That’s what I came here for. But…”

Namgung smiled slightly as he watched him answer after much thought.

“You write it.”

“…yes? Whoop?!”

At that moment, Den Howl looked at him with wide eyes.

This was because Namgung shoved the ice heart he was holding into his mouth.

“eat.”

Gulp –

Surprisingly, the large jewel melted like cotton candy as soon as it entered my mouth.

Hua Ah … !!!

At that moment, Den Howl, who had swallowed the jewel, felt the area around his heart becoming cold as if it were freezing.

“omg…!!”

When he screamed without realizing it, Namgung pressed his shoulder and said.

“Control your magical power.”

Den Howl, forgetting that there was a monster in front of him, sat cross-legged and closed his eyes due to the rushing magic power.

[I don’t know what on earth they are planning.]

An unknown voice was heard.

[If you ate the ice heart, killing Shalum would be no problem. Why do you give up the path to become stronger and give it up to a guy like that?]

‘Maybe it’s a gamble. But if we make it possible, the future could change completely.’

Namgung answered him.

‘Ice Heart is definitely a great elixir. If you eat that, you will be able to handle the lecture steps perfectly. But… you would have said it. The lecture stage is just the beginning.’

[So?]

‘Even if the Ice Heart is an elixir, in the end it is just an artifact that comes out of the 5th door. If you’re going to get drunk… You will have the best.’

[Wow, that’s a great answer.]

Nameless smiled at him as if he was satisfied.

[Of course, even if he did something clumsy because he was drunk from the power in front of him, I wouldn’t have stopped him. Because that’s where your vessel ends.]

‘You’re testing me by telling me to rely on you. ‘It’s a boring prank.’

[So, what are you aiming for?]

‘The best elixir that cannot be compared to any other elixir in the world.’

[No way… Are you talking about [Leah’s Grace]?]

‘That’s right.’

[That is greed. That’s because it’s an elixir made through alchemy. It’s just a theory. It cannot be compared to any elixir that exists in the world because it does not exist in the world.]

Nameless shook his head at his words.

[No alchemist I have ever seen has been able to create the Philosopher’s Stone.]

‘Of course. Because it is something that can never be made in the Yaksha world. There are no wizards there.’

[…What?]

‘Why did the elixir made through alchemy have the divine name of the Wanderer of the Four Seasons? If you think about it once, the answer surprisingly comes easily.’

[No way…]

‘The creation of elixirs is the realm of alchemy. [Leah’s Grace] is also made through alchemy. But you need one more to make it.’

Namgung said.

“The only treasure that only an archmage can make.”

It was the [Philosopher’s Stone].
