Chapter 202: The Black Seed (10) (1)
[Slide the screen left and right!]
[Show your support for the hero!]
Flash!
A glowing stick began to shake in front of my eyes.
It was the master’s support visible only to , and I smiled as I prepared to dash out.
“Looks like you’re pretty hurt. Can you still swing that sword of yours properly?”
Perseine sneered at the corner of her mouth.
Magic spheres were swirling near her robe.
“You may not know this, but I am the pinnacle of all magicians in Townia.”
Boom!
The magic spheres spun fiercely.
If I were to even get grazed by one of those magic spheres, my flesh would be torn apart as if it had been put through a blender.
“Pinnacle, huh.”
I cald my breath.
The sparrow whispered in my mind.
I know. I’ve heard this guy’s specs endlessly.
The head of the magic family, called the Devil of Shutenberg, a title that has been passed down since ancient tis.
Even after casting hundreds of spells, she doesn’t get tired.
Perseine had a nearly infinite reservoir of magical power.
In contrast, I…
Throb.
The pounding in my heart grew stronger.
My body was warning . It was dangerous to keep moving.
‘What a joke.’
All I needed to do was kill the woman in front of .
It was too late to say I couldn’t now.
Don’t be ridiculous.
“Die.”
Perseine’s eyes dimd.
At the sa ti, the magic spheres scattered, leaving afterimages.
I forced my unresponsive body to move.
Boom!
The ground I was standing on just a mont ago caved in.
“Heh heh heh.”
Perseine’s body floated gently into the air.
Fire, ice, wind, and lightning. The magic spheres containing the four elents scattered and shot towards .
I dodged the magic spheres, weaving between the pillars.
“Smart, but if I destroy those pillars, it will be the end!”
Boom!
Lightning bolts started to smash the pillars with intense light.
‘There’s no ti.’
If this dragged on, it would be my loss.
While her magic power was infinite, my stamina was limited.
My body was already in a wrecked state even before coming here. It seed unlikely I could last even five more minutes.
I know that too.
If I use the Soulblade Fusion, I could kill the woman in front of . But, with my already weakened body, I would not survive the backlash either.
I ca here to win, not to die.
Fwoosh!
A hellish fla spread out in front of .
I climbed the broken pillar, stepped on the ceiling, and dodged far away. As soon as I ca down, lightning chased , and when I ducked, an ice spear brushed past my head.
‘A complete mass destruction weapon.’
It felt like she could sweep through thousands alone on the battlefield.
“How long will you keep running? You can’t kill
like that.”
“Are you fighting with your mouth?”
I pulled out a dagger from my belt and threw it.
Ting. The dagger blade made a pathetic sound as it bounced off Perseine’s barrier.
As expected.
Rushing in recklessly would have been a bloody mistake.
I hid my body behind a split pillar.
Boom! Bang! Boom!
It seed she intended to destroy the entire cave.
Magic was pouring down from all directions.
“Either way, I die. So what should I do?”
It wasn’t entirely hopeless.
There was a chance of victory for .
If I didn’t believe that, I wouldn’t have co.
‘She doesn’t know.’
What kind of power dwells in my left arm.
What kind of technique I use, and how much explosive power I can generate.
Exploiting that was the only path to victory.
I rolled on the floor.
Rock blades stabbed into the place where I had been.
Finally, her magic reached this far.
“Co to think of it, you seed pretty close with my disciple.”
Trying to provoke
was useless.
My mind was endlessly calm.
Countless possibilities and variables flashed through my mind like lightning.
‘It’s almost over.’
I wouldn’t drag this out any longer.
My left leg had already stopped responding.
‘……’
Beyond where Perseine stood, the glowing stick was rippling violently.
Anytng was swinging the support stick with all his might.
‘Watch closely.’
Just once.
I twisted the sword handle.
Cracks ran all along the blade, and magical bombardnt was about to rain down from above.
“Farewell, pathetic hero.”
Perseine aid her magic spheres at .
Simultaneously, dozens of magic spheres attacked from left and right, from above and below.
I flipped the switch in my mind.
[‘Han (★★★★)’ has entered Ascend mode!]
Gulp.
At that mont, blood spurted out of my mouth and my vision went white.
I bit my tongue hard enough to bleed. Only then did my vision return.
A fireball was shooting towards
from right in front.
I twisted my body to the right and stepped on the floor.
Bang! My body shot out like an arrow.
“……?!”
Perseine’s eyes narrowed.
Indeed. I could move this fast.
“Hmph.”
Perseine snorted and swung her hand.
Crackle! A wall of lightning rose right in front of .
I reached out my left hand.
[Unique Skill, ‘Black Dragon Scale’ activated!]
[This hero is immune to magic!]
As the lightning touched my left hand, the lightning wall vanished.
I increased my speed even further.
“……!”
Perseine’s expression twisted in frustration,
but she quickly swung her hand again.
‘Quick judgnt.’
Light beams shot from the sides and behind.
A place my left arm couldn’t reach. She instantly figured out the weakness of the Black Dragon Scale.
‘This much……’
I twisted my body.
The light arrows pierced through my forearm and thigh.
If I couldn’t avoid them, I made sure they hit non-lethal spots.
[‘Han (★★★★)’ is in a critical condition. His life is in danger!]
It’s okay.
I reached this point before.
I drew back my right arm holding the sword.
To kill her in one strike.
“Even so, it’s no use.”
Perseine twisted her lips.
Then her lips moved silently.
“I command you.”
Perseine pointed at
with her right hand.
‘It’s here.’
The mysterious technique that killed Delphine, the strongest in the empire, and the leader of the Joind tribe, the White Feather, in one strike.
The sparrow said it was an ancient power that had been lost long ago.
‘The Death Eye.’
Just by seeing, just by pointing and speaking,
it could instantly kill one designated target.
When I first heard about it, I thought it was absurd, but…
No, it really was a cheat skill.
Perseine’s pupils split sideways, revealing dragon eyes.
The Black Dragon Scale won’t stop it. It wasn’t really a magic spell.
Therefore.
“Screech!”
A dark red lightning burst from my extended left arm, and the sparrow shot out.
“……?!”
‘I’m not alone here.’
Crack.
The sparrow flew and instantly scattered into blood clumps.
Its body here was dead, but the pigeon in the waiting room would still be alive.
I grinned.
The hand covered in dragon scales touched the magical barrier.
[This hero is immune to magic!]
And then,
“Goodbye.”
Crack.
The blade pierced her heart.
