The World-Class Extra’s Walkthrough - Chapter 197

Episode 197

Three-way battle

‘This is fun.’

I took note of the system message carefully.

[A new name could have an impact on the technology’s identity.]

…Eternal Heart.

A new magic technology created by improving the code based on spirit magic.

This technique was literally a technique for manipulating mana hearts, the source of magical power.

It is a new magic that is completely different from the original spiritual magic.

‘The original spirit magic was both a fragment of the records of untamed power left behind by ancient magicians and the result of research in pure mechanics.’

However, I shifted the focus of the magic system to purely dealing with magical power sources.

So, if spiritual magic until yesterday was a so-called ‘public good’.

‘…From today, it has become private property that only works for my Mana Heart.’

No other wizard other than me would dare touch it.

It was like doing some kind of customization to my Mana Heart.

‘A series of processes that concentrate and supply non-attribute magic power that lacks power as much as possible and transport it to the magic circuits of the entire body.’

It was completely reconstructed.

It wasn’t an easy task.

Originally, all wizards had different magic circuits.

For example, if it is Tirvaen Sui, the heir to poisoning magic.

‘…The magic power that starts from the heart first exerts its power as it passes through the wizard’s entire body, and then returns to the heart at the end, using a structure designed to restore the power.’

This was because it had the characteristics of a unique magic system that dealt with poison and fire.

As it deals with deadly miasma and firearms, the order of fully releasing the magical power once expressed and filtering out the remaining was the most efficient.

In comparison, Erek Kaid could be said to be the exact opposite.

He was the deputy commander of the revolutionary army and the number one person in charge of blessing and protection magic, but in fact, the speed of magic circulation was slower than that of Tyrbaen.

‘Once the magic power starts from his mana heart, it slowly spreads in ripples.’

And, to the extent possible, he tried to maintain a pure state of magical power while contacting the Mana Heart.

Contrary to Tyrvaen, who has deadly toxic magic.

The magical power that Erek Kaid possesses does not need to be specifically filtered because its nature itself is docile and calm.

Rather, the focus is on making the slow flow of power even a little faster.

‘It is common for magicians in the Blessing, Defense and Healing series to increase efficiency by using Mana Hearts in this way.’

As such, the way wizards used their power was different.

‘and me.’

I used their method as a guide to build a new methodology called ‘Eternal Heart’.

Did you refer to the methods of other wizards and extract only the strengths?

…no.

In fact, the way this Mana Heart works was established without following any precedent.

In fact, it was the opposite.

In fact, it was the result of challenging a completely new system.

The textbook for the flow I chose was not from wizards.

‘…I referenced what the knights said.’

It was the Aurax era when magic immunity was applied to Mana Heart.

I didn’t pull out the sword spirit properly.

It was definitely magic that that crazy man named Father had banned from Gilroshan.

This means that the sword was suddenly tied together.

What does this mean?

Simple.

‘…If the Mana Heart doesn’t work, there is no magic power to pour out through the sword.’

So in the end, it is the same power.

It also meant that, contrary to common sense, magic and swordsmanship could not be considered separately.

Through past experiences, I clearly felt that.

‘The mechanism by which knights use sword spirit and the way wizards use magical power are not very different.’

However, the two technologies are rarely integrated.

‘No, fusion aside, even among the many geniuses, there is no one who has mastered both magic and swordsmanship.’

The problem was a phenomenon that resulted from the fact that the catalyst that mediates force was different.

Once the wizard has control of his magic power.

He dominates and interferes with the phenomena of this world using his ‘thought’ as a medium.

It was a method of creating the desired effect by subtly inserting the magic power of one’s spirit into the flow of magic power from the outside world.

However, when a knight draws his magic and applies it to his blade, a completely different method is adopted.

What they used was ‘speculation’.

The will to fight and defeat the enemy in front of you.

The one-sided power was extracted together with magical power so that it could exist outside.

Only then could a sword spirit with cutting power be established.

Even though they used the same power called magic, the methodologies of knights and wizards were very different.

‘So to speak, they are the same hunting dog, but the way they tie the leash is different.’

That is why it was impossible for someone to be both an archmage and a sword master.

Someone who doesn’t really know about magic might think like this.

‘I just need to sharpen both my intention and speculation, right?’

Then wouldn’t it be possible to draw out a sword and use magic a lot?

As long as the magical power stored in the body is sufficient, nothing seems impossible.

…That point was a trap.

‘Human magic cannot project intention and speculation at the same time.’

Normally, human magical power has unique ‘properties’.

It was an absolute law that could not be eliminated no matter how great the wizard was.

This property is refracted and transformed as it interacts with thoughts or speculation.

‘If intention and speculation are invested at the same time, the refractive index of magical power becomes too high, the elasticity is greatly damaged, and the power itself becomes irreversible.’

The power is not restored to the magic user’s mana heart.

In other words, if you just rotate the magic power once, it immediately becomes impossible to reabsorb and ends up dispersing into the atmosphere.

‘It’s like throwing away all the magical energy you worked so hard to accumulate.’

Therefore, human magical power could not project intention and speculation at the same time.

If a wizard wanted to draw sword energy, he had to use it by imitating the spirit of fighting.

If a knight wanted to use magic, he had to use it by bluntly refining his magic.

In the process, power and efficiency naturally had no choice but to go to Andromeda.

‘It’s such a shame.’

In a situation like this, one side has no choice but to give up.

That was the established theory of magic, which deals with magical power.

but.

‘…I’m different.’

I boldly decided to introduce a mechanism that combines intention and speculation.

That’s how Eternal Heart was created.

‘I will become neither a knight nor a wizard, but something third.’

It was like a system created as if to declare something.

And the magic was working properly even at this moment.

I was running excitedly through my body, filled with both intention and speculation.

The reason I can do it while others can’t.

Ironically, it was thanks to that ‘crazy guy named Father’.

…Emperor Bareshan.

If it weren’t for him, Giloshan’s mana heart would have been flowing with magic containing its attributes.

If that were the case, there would have been some attribute in my magical power.

‘I wouldn’t have thought of using intention and speculation together.’

However, I had obtained ‘non-attribute’ magical power.

It was thanks to Bareshan.

This was purely the result of that guy giving Guilroshan magic immunity.

I could have changed the nature of magical power to ‘metal’ by acquiring the mejitronic magic of the machine magic school.

‘Because it fundamentally has magical power without any attributes.’

Therefore, even when my magical power encountered both intention and speculation, there was no significant deflection.

Thanks to this, it was possible to apply the magician’s will and the knight’s fighting spirit at the same time.

And I decided to adopt the article’s method a little more here.

‘Anyway, I know enough about the limitations of magic circuits for wizards.’

The idea was to systematize it by incorporating the drivers’ speculation management theory into the circuit structure.

This technique is called ‘Internal Qigong (Inner Family Qigong)’ in the Eastern Continent martial arts worldview.

My escort knight, Carls, established it as a technology by naming it ‘Frontier Stream’.

I went one step further.

No, I jumped a little too far.

‘It creates an infinite ring that protects the mana heart with the high-pressure magical energy that is initially released.’

And from that ring-shaped flow, a passage leading to the entire body was constructed.

The flow of the road was something I had been thinking about for a long time.

‘The twelve meridians and eight basic meridians are opened one after another to expand the veins.’

Until I obtained the source of magical power called spirit magic from the evil dragon’s nest…

I used ‘pure energy absorption’, one of the lower skills of manatee sword technique, to circulate magical energy inside and outside the body.

Thanks to this, even though I am not from the East Continent, I knew where the Qi energy flowed in this body.

Here, we used those passages once again.

‘Just like NPCs from the Eastern Continent do, you open a path to various parts of your body and accumulate magic power by circulating it.’

In conclusion, Eternal Heart was no different from a mixed stew made of various things.

First of all, Mana Heart itself was created based on non-attribute magical power obtained through spiritual magic.

‘The catalyst that drives the flow of magical power adopts both the will of a magician and the fighting spirit of a knight.’

The form of the circuit that circulates magical power was taken from the Eastern Continent.

Add to this the effect of mejitronic magic that manipulates metal…

“There has never been a hybrid like this before. “Is this a magic knight or a martial arts ingot?”

Even after searching through all of Giloshan’s knowledge, there was no human who could process magic power like me.

Honestly, I wonder if this is okay.

‘Well anyway, the efficiency is incredibly good, right?’

Of course, there were some regrets because the code was written in a hurry.

But it was also a point that suggested that there was still room to climb.

Even though Eternal Heart has already been judged to be EX grade.

And one more thing.

‘A new name can affect a technology’s identity.’

This system message also meant that there might be room for something more in Eternal Heart.

The meaning of the name I gave it, ‘Eternal Heart’.

It was intended to remind Gilroshan of the fact that his magic was taken away by Emperor Bareshan.

It was also an expression of determination to prevent something like this from happening again, and was also a preventive measure.

If someone tries to touch this Mana Heart…

‘they will experience a spicy taste that will soothe your senses.’

Perhaps the opponent’s magic circuit may burn out.

This was because the counterattack technique I had prepared was one whose power increased in proportion to the opponent’s magical power.

You probably won’t be defeated by Emperor Bareshan twice.

…And the same goes for the henchmen he sends.

There was a high possibility that the target of those who crossed the border of the Beast Tribe was me.

Thanks to this, problems arose with Kali Quest.

‘Instead of just sitting and waiting, it would be better to move first.’

I had something in mind to overcome this strange situation.

“I’m back, master.”

“I heard you won three games in a row. Congratulations.”

The people I called were Hael and Fabian.

The two people were training to use Cheonniung as a group.

If you go to Kaibar Plateau, where Hael’s secrets are hidden, an unexpected situation may arise.

‘Let’s train Cheonri-eung in advance so that we can track targets and communicate with them.’

That was the intention.

And since Hael, as a fairy, was able to relate specifically to Cheonri-eung, it was better in many ways to increase her intimacy in advance.

Like right now.

“Hael, have Cheonri-eung do the search.”

It wasn’t about finding that suspicious group that had invaded through the border.

“Tell them to keep an eye on the warchief.”

Because my goal was always Modrin.

“As soon as she moves out of the city, we will move right away, taking Eikir with us.”

“All right.”

I predicted that the god Kali would spring forth as soon as Mordrin encountered the intruders.

Then it was natural to aim for that moment.

‘I’ll have to tell Eikir to get ready to move right away.’

But right in the early morning of that day.

“…what?”

What I predicted was spectacularly wrong.

“It’s been a while, my lord.”

Among the emperor’s subordinates, a very large figure came to see me first.
