301. Black magic (1)
Monarch.
It was like the right of those who are called the closest to the pinnacle in the demon realm.
A seat given to those who are looking for a higher level deity that is no wonder compared to any other deity.
What could be more aningful than taking the place of a monarch in a demon world steeped in winner-take-all and the rule of thumb?
‘That’s why the seat of a monarch is special.’
At least for Alkaid, the position of monarch was like life.
Alkaid’s yellow eyes flashed as he rested his chin on his throne.
If he, born of a lowly race like a goblin, hadn’t beco a monarch, how would he have been treated?
It wasn’t that difficult to co up with the answer.
Goblins are the pinnacle of a weak race since ancient tis.
‘The reason I, a goblin at best, can be treated like this is because I am a monarch…’
100 years ago, Alkaid killed the 62 Lords of his predecessor and beca the new 62 Lords.
Despite being an insignificant race like the goblins, they were able to overwhelm everything with their innate talents.
But even so, Alkaid was not vigilant.
The position of a monarch is maintained only when you can prove yourself.
Alkaid, like himself 100 years ago, realized that being a monarch is a sandcastle that can collapse at any ti.
That too is very certain.
“In the midst of the monarch’s decisive battle in 100 years, there can be no fool who covets my seat of power.”
Alkaid murmured coolly as he sat on his throne.
“So this ti is no different.”
A dark citadel with only a handful of light.
62 Alkaid narrowed his eyes as he looked down at his demon with horns growing in the throne room under the direct control of the monarch.
Alkaid’s eyes, which had been stained with boredom so far, shimred with light anger, and a cold question flowed from his mouth.
“Did you say that a demon king suddenly appeared in the demon realm?”
A question imbued with dignity that is not light even though it is just a goblin.
The mont when the gentleness that did not match his tribal appearance created an alien sense of intimidation.
As if the demon with the horns had been waiting for it, he lowered his head and hurriedly spoke to him.
“Yes, my lord…”
“Didn’t you even say that he was a psychopath enough to touch the henchn of the monarchs?”
“yes! …He sure tried to kill us! In fact, the 47th Lord’s henchman also died—”
The demon tribe, whose horns grew without a mont’s rest, tried to continue the conversation, but…
“understood.”
Suddenly, Alcaid stopped him as if he were talking and spoke as if he was talking to himself.
“Then, is this also one of them?”
“What the hell is that…?”
“It’s roughly like this.”
Soon after, the horned demons who served Alkaid revealed their doubts.
As it was, Alkaid gave off a cold gaze and clenched his fist as if he was about to grab sothing with his hand and crush it.
Then, from the back of the demon with horns, the sound of sothing like pieces of glass being cracked resonated.
Fall out…!
“What…!”
In the blink of an eye, a light rose from the back of the demon with horns and then disappeared.
「The skill ‘Pursuit Light’ is forcibly canceled and disappears.」
「Challenger Han Seong-yoon will no longer be provided with location tracking information.」
light of pursuit.
The tracking-type skills that Han Seong-yoon had previously used were useless.
Only then did Alkaid’s subordinates realize that sothing had happened and expressed their astonishnt.
“What the hell is this…!”
“The chase is attached. It’s not a spell, it’s more like superpowers. In fact, it is a force close to coercion.”
“How can this…! I’m sorry. Lord. Because of my vices…!”
“no. No way. Isn’t it an ability that soone like you can stop anyway? Rather… I think he’s coming.”
“yes?”
Alkaid murmured, his eyes cold.
“A guy who dares to take my place is coming here.”
Not different…
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh-!
Suddenly, the entire front door of the audience room was destroyed, and a human figure appeared beyond it.
“The god of transcendence smiles at the unknown monarch.”
“As I thought, there was a monarch here.”
A tone filled with confidence, as if it were as he had assud.
The mont when In-young slowly erged from the shaded spot.
Before I knew it, a swordsman was standing in the place where the door to the audience room had been broken.
as soon as….
“Now we can proceed with the ordeal in earnest.”
It was Han Seong-yoon.
***
I narrowed my eyes as I entered the castle of an unknown monarch.
‘This….’
It was worth it.
‘It’s worth it.’
It was because he felt a high rank from the goblin sitting on the throne beyond the audience room prepared in the monarch’s fortress.
He is at least a level comparable to a formal godhead, so he can be looked down upon.
Even so, he would not be able to compete with those who were like evil gods who could be called high-ranking deities.
Nevertheless, it was imdiately clear that the goblin subject had ridiculous powers.
‘Probably on the sa level as a god of battle who doesn’t use divine < fighting spirit >.’
Aren’t they the strongest goblins I’ve ever seen?
But it was only for a mont that I thought so.
The goblin lord, clad in a black tailcoat, descended from his throne intact, his eyes twinkling.
“It’s been a long ti since I’ve seen an uninvited guest…”
And as he straightened his clothes, he looked at the demon with horns and said,
“Gerard. It seems that it will take quite a while to receive guests. Get you out of here.”
It’s like it’s just going to get in the way if you stay like this.
But is it actually not so wrong?
The demons, whose goat-like horns grew, imdiately bowed their heads and followed the instructions without objection.
I smiled as I saw the body of a demon with goat horns hurriedly disappear into the darkness.
“It’s fun.”
It was worth it.
“For you to let go of a subordinate who revealed his location to the opponent.”
Perhaps the naless goblin lord knows the mistakes of his subordinates.
Nevertheless, sending subordinates without any sign of anger ca to impressively.
However, the goblin lord in front of answered roughly, saying that there was no inspiration in the first place, as if that was not the case.
“hmm. I never expected anything like that anyway. That’s why I’m not angry.”
“…That makes sense on its own.”
“And above all, I knew from the mont Gerard reported it anyway. I don’t know who you are, but you’re coming here.”
“Did you even think of that?”
It was interesting.
What the hell did he do to guess that I would co here?
At most, it was all about casting the tracking skill on a demon with goat-like horns.
I wondered if he had an unexpected ability to predict, but surprisingly, the goblin lord’s answer was very simple.
“You’re asking the obvious…”
The goblin lord said in a puzzled tone.
“Anyway, if you are an outsider who ca to the Pandemonium at this ti, isn’t the position of the monarch the goal?”
“How can you be sure of that?”
“The ability to track Gerard, and the hands of the 47th Lord’s henchn without worrying about the aftertaste. And if you hear the information that you ca from outside, you will know even if you don’t want to know.”
“…”
“If a guy who doesn’t care about the lords’ wrath puts the tracking ability on the lord’s henchman, it’s obvious what he’s going to do. They must be aiming for the position of monarch.”
“That’s true, but…”
It was unexpected.
‘I never thought I could move my head this fast.’
The strong people I’ve seen so far didn’t think so elaborately.
It’s been a long ti since I’ve seen soone read their intentions in an instant like this.
Those who have reached the height of the Divinity try to find out everything by relying solely on their strength without thinking about it.
That’s why it was foreign and dangerous.
‘He’s at least soone who can think normally.’
The deities dealt with the divinity of concepts and were full of people whose thinking was broken.
This is because divinity can be seen as an elent directly related to the personality of the godhead.
The divinity that touches the realm of the concept cos from the personality of the Godhead.
Just as I obtained the power of divinity < transcendence > at the end of focusing only on growth.
And the divinity acquired according to the inclination was directly connected to and influenced the personality.
However, despite this, the power of the godhead is so great that such a derit only ends at the level of a psychopath.
But the goblin lord was not like that.
‘Even though I’ve reached a level comparable to that of a godhead, isn’t my mind still eroded by power?’
An enemy worth fighting for.
Knowing how to repeat thoughts ans that the probability of writing this or that soon increases.
In fact, the goblin lord’s yellow eyes flashed as if he had waited, and the black energy flowed.
Tsuzuzu…
“Let’s stop wasting ti here.”
Suddenly, his body was overflowing with uncontrollable demonic energy.
“Now the Magi has fully ward up. It should be enough to deal with you.”
and.
“Until now, there have been many foolish people who challenged to a duel and tried to take the place of the 62nd Lord.”
Soon, the goblin lord’s yellow eyes shone even stronger.
“And you, as always, will et the sa end at the hands of this Alkaid.”
As it was, Alkaid’s demonic energy took a systematic form and changed like a small bullet.
Tadadadadadaang-!
In an instant, the sound of gongs rang out simultaneously and black bullets rained down.
And all such attacks were imbued with an infinitely high rank.
If you get hit like this, you probably won’t be able to get over with minor injuries.
If so, it was decided what to do.
「The divine authority ‘Apotheosis’ is activated.」
「It becos possible to exercise divine authority according to the potential divinity.」
「The latent divinities are < transcendence > < death > < immortality > < reversal > < observation > < discipline > < harmony > < spoken spirit > < fighting spirit >.”
as soon as….
[To be bothered. ]
Using apotheosis, this side was to match the level to so extent.
In a situation like this anyway, there is no point in hiding your power anymore.
Deification took place in the blink of an eye, and the armor of divinity wrapped around his body.
The armor of divinity obtained by increasing the percentage of the 2nd Ascension before was able to block the attacks of evil spirits to so extent.
That’s why the black bullets were aninglessly annihilated as if they were crushed by the divine armor.
“godhead…?”
And Alkaid, who saw that, said as if he was shocked and surprised.
“Looking at it now, it seems that he was not just a demon king, but soone who had already attained divine status…!”
But even so, Alcaid was not so greatly agitated.
no.
Now, as if he had made up his mind, he calmly displayed his intent to kill.
Alkaid shouted with his yellow eyes wide open.
“Then I’ll show you my sincerity too!”
Then, as soon as I heard that, I imdiately activated my authority skill.
「The power skill ‘designated target deceleration’ is strongly activated.」
「Decelerates all speeds of Pandemonium Lord ‘Alkaid’ by [40%] for 4 minutes.」
There was no need to give room to respond to soone who had a good mind.
It would be better to quickly see the bottom line than to give yourself ti to think.
Learning magic skills is just a matter of continuing slowly.
‘I just need to slow down the action speed and learn magic skills…’
however….
“Be twisted.”
When Alkaid suddenly said that in a cold voice, sothing happened.
“An unexpected haven.”
Tsutsutsu…!
「The power skill ‘designated target deceleration’ is canceled by [Unwanted Sanctuary].」
「A 10-minute cooldown is created by [Unwanted Sanctuary] for the power skill ‘Designated Target Deceleration’.”
[ what? ]
It wasn’t enough that the activation of the Power skill was suddenly canceled, so the skill had a cooldown.
It’s not even the unique cooldown inherent in power skills.
This is a kind of sealed state by Alkaid’s technique.
I had to laugh at him because I was dumbfounded.
[ What is this… ]
It was worth it.
At best, I didn’t know that the power skill would be sealed in a skill that uses magic.
Even the power skill was a power connected to a kind of divinity, so there was no choice but to be more absurd.
[ So absurd. ]
But that was only a mont.
「The Transcendence Myth < Spirit Tuning > is activated.」
“From now on, the divine effect of < Spirit Indomitable > will be applied to the divine operation of challenger Han Seong-yoon.”
「※You can designate an opponent and beco equal to all opponents for [4 minutes].」
「※If you cannot withstand the accumulated burden due to the rise in rank, the power of < Spirit Indomitable > may be interrupted.”
“From now on, challenger Han Seong-yoon will receive the divine effect of < Autonomous Control >.”
「※It becos possible to freely adjust and handle the spirit attack that one possesses.」
「※The formless power can be tuned with the spirit attack, and the effect of the spirit attack can be applied to that power.」
The transcendence myth < Spirit Tuning > interfered with the power skill, and the seal by the skill was imdiately released.
Kwazijik-!
「The power skill ‘Designated Target Deceleration’ is freed from the influence of [Unwanted Sanctuary].」
[Annoying. ]
However, after unraveling the power that interfered with the authority skill, interest arose.
‘…Still, it’s definitely a power beyond what I thought.’
That would be too…
I was able to solve it in just a few seconds, but Alkaid interfered with the authority skill.
Perhaps, if it hadn’t been for the transcendence myth < Spirit Tuning >, I might have had to suffer from the effect for over a minute instead of a few seconds.
Still, it was like breaking the seal anyway.
Even if Alkaid’s realm is comparable to that of a formal god, it’s surprising that he sealed the powerful skill even for a mont.
It was even more so because I vaguely noticed what the underlying technology was.
[Is that so kind of skill that uses demons? ]
And as if his guess was correct, Alkaid smiled and said.
“The answer is correct, Goddess.”
Alkaid continued his words, concentrating Magi in the space without a break.
“It’s a type of black magic that can only be used by those who have been chosen among the demons that are spread out like sand.”
[Black magic…? ]
“The secret arts of those who existed in ancient tis are nothing but the exclusive possession of geniuses!”
[ …. ]
and.
“This is the power that has elevated even the humble goblin to the position of great lord…!”
The mont when Alkaid’s eyes spilled a black color like an afterimage.
Only then did I realize
That was the essence of Alkaid’s power and the supre skill that made him comparable to a god.
It wasn’t too strange.
‘In fact, is black magic a transcendental skill like martial arts?’
Even if it is not, there is a technology beyond the boundary of martial arts in the Moorim dinsion.
Unlike martial arts, there was only a high-level technology called black magic in the demon realm.
Even that, like martial arts, is a skill that has the potential to reach the level of divinity.
and.
[ okay? ]
I had to twinkle my eyes with an unbearable longing for him.
[Good. ]
That would be too…
「The exclusive effect ‘Magic Circuit’ is activated.」
「You can temporarily change the user’s magical energy into magical energy.」
[Even if it’s not, I’ve been looking for it all along. ]
If I could learn black magic right here, I’d be able to use it as a trump card in the future.
[How to use the power of Magi? ]
That’s why I switched my internal mana into demonic energy and fixed my gaze on Alkaid.
[Still, if you’re a strong person like you, it’ll be a reference level, right? ]
black magic.
An exclusive property of genius that only the chosen among countless demons can acquire.
Then, if you look closely at this one and think about the principles of black magic, you will eventually be able to use it.
[I want you to show black magic that is even better than this. ]
because….
[That way, I’ll get a lot to go. ]
Up until now, I have always learned all the techniques with just one talent like this.
***
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
In the blink of an eye, dozens or even hundreds of fierce battles ca and went.
A heterogeneous and completely inefficient battle in which each half relies on demonic energy.
The black light intertwined with each other and spread all over the place, and each ti Alkaid frowned.
“…”
It was worth it.
‘What’s the ulterior motive?’
I don’t know why, but the godhead in front of kept not using the power related to divinity.
But, I tried to use divine power once before…
Alkaid briefly interfered with the powers related to the divine with black magic, and from then until now, he has refrained from the divine power.
‘…why don’t they use divine power?’
At best, he had to use his strength to erase Alkaid’s black magic with the divine armor.
He had never seen him use his divine power in earnest.
As if he was restricted by sothing, he didn’t use his divinity at all.
In the process, Alkaid perceived that the deity in front of him was an absurd monster.
‘…and even though I don’t have divine power, why can’t I rule out that guy?’
Han Seong-yoon was not pushed back even when he did not bring out even half of the true value of his godhead.
He continued the fight as if he was holding on, relying solely on the effects of various skills and items.
And every ti I had ti, I suddenly squeezed the Magi crudely and threw it at Alkaid.
Even so, it didn’t work for Alkaid because it was a black magic like an ant’s struggle, but…
Still, I couldn’t help but be annoyed.
‘What the hell are you aiming for, why do you keep using magic like this forcibly?’
I couldn’t understand.
Why is Han Seong-yoon trying to copy Alkaid’s own black magic?
It has to be.
Because black magic is a skill only for the chosen genius.
Among the 72 rulers of the demon realm, there were only a handful of people who had deep knowledge of black magic like Alkaid, so Han Seong-yoon’s actions seed aningless.
‘I can’t use black magic anyway…’
actually….
Don’t miss it-!
Every ti Han Seong-yoon clumsily imitated black magic, all of his attempts failed.
‘…done. It’s useless anyway. So he won’t have to worry too much about it.’
At this point, it seed that Alkaid had nothing to worry about anymore.
That’s why he put his mind aside and focused on dealing with Han Seong-yoon.
Because all black magic was excluded from the divine armor, he still couldn’t inflict a single wound on him.
So, now is the ti to take off the divine armor even if you use the trump number.
At the crossroads of victory and defeat, it is ti to see the end of one road.
“I’ll let you put an end to it now…”
The mont he tried to activate the highest level of Alkaid’s black magic.
[You seem to know roughly what black magic is. ]
Suddenly, Han Seong-yoon said that with his gaze fixed on Alkaid.
“under?”
[Now I get it. Magi… It’s not like magic. ]
“…”
[ It essentially specializes in ddling with sothing and twisting it. ]
“What.”
[So, black magic is also a form of assistance. ]
“…What the hell are you talking about?”
Throbbing -.
Suddenly, Alkaid felt uneasy about the deity in front of him who was uttering an incomprehensible voice.
Even though he knew that the deity in front of him was just trying to shake Alkaid’s mind and create a montary gap.
There was a sense of depth in Han Seong-yoon’s tone to the extent that I thought so.
[ I’ve been learning how to use it wrong. alkyd. Black magic wasn’t like that. ]
“…What kind of bullshit is that?”
[In the first place, black magic is not for offense. It’s what you use to support yourself. ]
“Auxiliary…?”
No way.
As soon as Alkaid heard what Sungyoon Han said, he denied it.
But for so reason, Alkaid’s intuition told this.
…That’s not a lie, much less nonsense.
And whether or not, Han Seong-yoon continued as if he would say what he had to say.
[ okay. assistant. Because black magic is a power optimized for twisting one’s own limits. So the usage itself was wrong. ]
“…”
[From the beginning, black magic was a power that was used as a ans to broaden one’s abilities. ]
“It can’t be… it can’t be…”
[That’s why even the evil spirits, except for physical aids, were poured into divine or mythical powers. ]
“Explain it! explain! What kind of bullshit is that?! And how can you be so sure…!!”
Before Alkaid could speak, Han Seong-yoon smiled and blurted out his words.
[ therefore…. ]
and.
[It’s roughly like this. ]
next mont.
「The god of transcendence sends ridicule to foolish black magic users.」
[Now I think I know more about black magic than you do. ]
As it was, the dark demonic energy overflowed from Han Seong-yoon’s body and ford a certain form.
“What the hell is this…”
And Alkaid, who saw that, had no choice but to watch the scene in awe.
black halo.
As if to support the armor of divinity that wrapped around Han Seong-yoon, the halo of black magic was guarding him.
Even that, in a form that is more effective than any black magic Alkaid has ever seen.
[Black magic was the power to use like this. ]
Only then did Alkaid realize.
“……ah?”
Why did Han Seong-yoon say that black magic is originally of an auxiliary nature?
[Perhaps this can reduce the cooldown of skills or the cooldown of authority. ]
“ah….”
[Well, it may not be that practical yet, but once you master it, the story will change…]
“…”
Now Alkaid couldn’t think of anything to say.
Dark magic that supports divinity cannot be used with Alkaid at all.
Seeing that it was more efficient than any black magic he had ever seen, he looked straight ahead with black dead eyes.
And Han Seong-yoon, who used black magic to Alkaid who was so srized, said with a smile.
[Still, thanks to you, I learned black magic well. ]
even….
[Is it easier to learn black magic than you think? ]
That too, while spitting out words denying everything about Alkaid.
