Kugugugugugugu!
“… … .”
Kwarrrrung-!
“… It’s noisy outside.”
Boom!
“Hmm, is it taking longer than I thought? This is a big deal.”
He is not originally interested in outside affairs.
I just read books and do research in a space that is always isolated from the outside world.
But today, it was unusually noisy.
Because an annoying sound kept ringing.
Kwaaaaang!
The sound shows no sign of decreasing and only grows louder.
If the noise pollution is this bad, it could lead to murder.
“Tsk.”
Percussion.
He finally stood up.
Originally, I had no intention of going out.
“Is something too burdensome for my own people to deal with?”
Because it seems like a slightly dangerous creature has arrived.
He stretched out his leg.
To stop noise pollution.

Kwakwakwakwang!
The highest institution in the empire.
An impregnable fortress that no one has ever breached.
The ivory tower of wizards.
A castle in the sky that ordinary people cannot dare to climb.
The sacred grounds of the magician, known by countless aliases, are being destroyed.
By a disaster falling from the sky… .
This was the first time in a thousand years of history that such an attack would have caused any organization to collapse without even coming to their senses.
but.
“[Blow, north wind]!”
“[Stronger, more powerful]!”
“[Earth, help me], [Be firm, become firmer].”
This is the rooftop.
The wizards were overflowing and overflowing.
Rather than trembling in fear at the sight of those who dared to attack their holy ground, the wizards trembled in anger and unleashed their magic.
Some were rebuilding the destroyed castle, others were casting defensive magic, and still others were trying to repair the magic tower’s field.
And the rest of them… .
“It’s him! He dared to attack the Magic Tower!”
“this guy…!!”
The wizards immediately began to cast spells.
Some people think of wizards as elegant and graceful fighters, but looking at their current appearance, they are not elegant at all, but rather barbaric.
Well, it wouldn’t be strange if he wasn’t upset when his home was destroyed, but it’s a bit too low-level for a wizard who needs to remain cool at all times.
So….
‘What are these?’
Suddenly, the intruder, the number one contributor to the collapse of the magic tower, frowned.
He was the one who unilaterally toyed with the wizard, but for some reason, he felt strangely uneasy.
Lee Han, unintentionally, knows a lot about creatures called wizards.
Because I hated it, I came to know it better than anyone else… .
You could literally say that he has become an expert at catching the most hard-working magicians in the modern era.
… That’s why it was strange.
‘Why is it so sloppy?’
I hear all kinds of orders.
A spell that threatens him.
“[Strike at those who stand in my way]! [Burning, burning hotter]!”
“[Leaves, whisper], [Earth, please bring down the hammer].”
A bow of flame, a weapon made of leaves, and a hammer made of earth threaten him.
But still… .
Phew!
‘It’s too easy to deal with… .’
The wind generated by Lee Han’s extended fist cleanly erased the magic that was engulfing him.
Not only was the magic simply erased, but the wizards, who were extremely weak, were unable to respond to the unexpected blow and were blown away.
Overwhelming.
Lee Han was overwhelming the wizards.
“… … .”
But he didn’t look happy.
‘It’s not that I’m weak…’
It doesn’t mean it’s weak.
Rather, the level was high and the magic was fierce.
The students learning magic at the academy are not even comparable.
… but that’s it.
‘These guys are idiots.’
And Lee Han was sure.
Why are those you deal with so weak?
Lack of practical experience.
Lee Han realized that the shelter called Matap had become ‘poison’ to the spellcasters.
‘They don’t know how to hunt because they live in such a safe place. They tease weaklings, but they’ve rarely been in combat.’
The more you fight, the more you feel it.
These order-makers are like tigers living in a zoo.
It doesn’t mean that the wildness has been removed, it’s just an animal that can’t hunt.
They can’t help but be the ones who eat only the food that is served to them.
It’s funny.
That’s why we get attacked by surprise.
It’s so weak it’s disappointing!
So….
─There’s no way it can end here, right?
Lee Han became even more alert.
Again, Lee Han unintentionally knows a lot about the ordering machine.
It is no exaggeration to say that he is an expert, and although he detests order-makers, he does not underestimate or look down on them.
Rather, I considered the seeds that cast spells to be more dangerous than anyone else.
So I feel uneasy.
Is this all the ordering machine you consider dangerous?
… … That can’t be.
Lee Han never looked down on him.
They are the ones who have been parasitic on the empire for a thousand years.
But it can’t end here.
As much as I hate it, I trust it.
As expected.
[Uoooo-!]
As if to repay Lee Han’s trust, the bastards finally began to show their strength.
“Yeah, now it’s starting to make sense.”
The alias of the seeds called spellcasters or magicians is ‘the one who prepares.’
It has several meanings, but if we interpret it in Lee Han’s way, it means a sinister person who is always prepared for a crisis.
And those sinister things definitely… .
“Cheong, [Bronze Giant] is moving!”
“That intruder is now finished.”
“Haha, I never thought I’d see that thing move in my lifetime.”
“… Ugh, it’s too late, too late.”
Kookung!
Kugu palace!
thud…!
Inside the half-broken tower.
From there it appeared, taking giant steps forward.
This is the Bronze Giant, made of bronze and standing 10 meters tall, so it wouldn’t be strange to call him a ‘giant’.
And not just one, but many.
“… twelve.”
under.
‘You guys are hiding something really fun.’
Lee Han looked with excitement at the twelve giants approaching him.
As expected, the den of orderers is,
‘This is correct.’
simplicity and honesty!
Lee Han clenched his fists menacingly.
* * *
Although the magicians of the Magic Tower were bewildered by the destruction of the Magic Tower’s magical field, which had never been penetrated before, and their response was delayed for a moment, their sense of crisis was minimal.
That would be the case, since the rooftops were rife with means to ‘eliminate’ such intruders.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the bronze giant alone was a product of magical engineering that contained all of the wisdom of the Magic Tower.
Even with just one unit, a giant could easily ravage and destroy a territory, but there were twelve units of that bronze giant.
The intruder’s death was certain.
Kwajik!
“… ??”
… … The wizards doubted their eyes.
“That, that giant’s arm…?”
“… got picked?”
The bronze giant’s arm was torn off with incredible ease.
It wasn’t even magic. It was just simple.
Kwajik!
That intruder, the knight had torn the bronze giant’s arm off with his strength.
With overwhelming force.
But if the article had read such thoughts, it would have been laughed at.
Because he didn’t get it by force, but by using his skills.
I’m talking about a technique called [My Weighted Method].
Kookookookook!
The giants attacked the knight, causing the ground to shake.
But the knight walked on without any fear.
Phew!
The knight’s movements were like the wind as he leisurely slipped through the gaps of the bronze giants, making fun of them.
One wonders how something so large can move so flexibly and quickly.
The bronze giant is also fast despite its large size, but the wizards are dumbfounded at how easily they dodge it.
additionally.
Phew!
The knight displayed a movement that was nothing short of extraordinary, and simultaneously struck the bronze giant with his fist.
As if to prove that there are many places to hit as it boasts a large size.
And the giant who was hit by the fist.
Kkuddeuk!
… shockingly, parts were being destroyed from the inside and parts of the legs were breaking off.
Kwajik!
It was like an article making fun of a bronze giant, and it made me wonder if the bronze giant was originally such a weak object.
Kuung!!!
You could tell that the bronze giant was not weak by the way his fist shook violently the moment it touched the ground.
Yes, the bronze giant is strong.
The Bronze Giant is the slaughterer and destroyer of the battlefield, so how could he be weak?
But to put it another way,
“-What the hell is that guy?”
This would also mean that the knight had the skills to outwit the bronze giant.
The wizards were astonished, but soon came to their senses and prepared their magic.
Instead of just standing there and watching, they should step forward and… .
Wow!
“!?!”
“Hey, Debrick Ball!!”
“My fellow countrymen!!”
A wizard who was trying to cast a spell had his head blown off.
While everyone’s eyes were focused on the battle between the bronze giant and the knight, one of the wolves had already arrived on the battlefield.
And the savage never misses its unsuspecting prey and immediately takes its life.
Just like now.
“You idiots. If you were going to come out, you should have come out earlier. Where are you trying to interfere in a knightly battle? You should know shame, you don’t know honor.”
lakh.
The knight of the spear who arrived on the battlefield raised his spear and shouted at the wizards who knew no honor.
I thought I would lose everything to the thugs, but fortunately, it seemed like there were still a lot of them to deal with.
‘Hmm, but is the most delicious prey the thugs?’
Bronze giant.
Kkuddeuk!
Those giants fighting the thugs had self-repair functions, as their destroyed arms and legs were regenerating.
There it is.
Crunch! Crunch!
They were changing into beast forms, perhaps because they had arbitrarily judged that it would be difficult to defeat the thugs in human form.
Including lions and bears, tigers and wolves, lynxes and monkeys.
‘The world is truly a vast place.’
As expected, there are many unique things about the tower.
So it’s a pity.
I wish I had faced that myself.
‘It seems like only disappointing crumbs remain.’
When Lark was about to frown like that… .
[-Lightning].
Crackle!!
Lark was jolted awake by the powerful blow aimed at him.
Pfft!
Of course, he was able to quickly ward off the lightning that was striking him, but his arm still felt a little numb.
It was not possible to completely overcome the shock.
“Elder!”
“The teachers have arrived…!”
“It’s over.”
Phew.
When the five flying old men appeared, the wizards looked surprised as if they had never been scared before.
If the Bronze Giants were the guardians of the Magic Tower and weapons of destruction that annihilated the enemy, then they were high-ranking magicians with powers that could not even be compared to other magicians.
The first-class magicians of the Magic Tower, also known as Archmages.
Five of the seven great wizards known within the Empire have now appeared here.
[Bounce it off?].
[An extraordinary warrior group].
[After all, aren’t they just inferior creatures?]
[I see].
[Wow, that seems like a good test subject-].
Kwajik──!
Every time the Archmages open their mouths, it becomes a spell.
Every time I open my mouth, an intense pressure weighs down the air and shatters the building.
It’s like a living lump of magical power, and there can’t be no monsters like it.
It is said that in ancient times, it was not uncommon for a clan called the Great Wizard to reign as gods, and it was not difficult to understand why they were worshipped.
… and, the man who had five great wizards before his eyes, who were worshipped as gods in ancient times.
“… … Okay, now I feel a little less disappointed.”
I was feeling extremely satisfied.
Yeah, it should be like this… .
“It was worth going through all that trouble to come all the way to the empire to kill.”
Hwaaaaak!
A thick, murderous aura emanated from Lark’s body.
The murderous intent was so thick that it spread like a thick fog!
A villain born with the killing power of thousands of people had to have a time when he could freely express that killing power.
Originally, his liege lord, the Duke of Blake, would often assist him, but fortunately, it seems that he will not need that today.
That makes sense.
‘I guess I can kill as much as I want.’
The justification is sufficient.
You blasphemous bastards who dare to aim for my lord, the sword of Galahad!
There is only one punishment that must be meted out to them.
‘capital punishment!’
The monster rushed towards the wizards.
“… That kid is so exciting.”
Lee Han was speechless.
Whenever he calls himself crazy, he is always more excited when he actually comes.
I’m not the kind of uncle who says he doesn’t want to go to the amusement park but ends up having more fun than his nephews.
“Sup, those are the ones I want to deal with….”
But on the other hand, I also feel regret.
Because he wanted to deal with things like arch mages that could emit massive magical powers.
Whoosh whoosh!
… I didn’t come all the way to the Empire to fight with these weird robots, or golems.
They were bronze giants that breathed flames reminiscent of ‘Greek fire’ from their mouths, and Lee Han drew his sword without hesitation and slashed horizontally.
They are the ones who will just repeat the regeneration process with one hit anyway.
so!
Woohoo!
Lee Han put ‘Star Cluster’ on his sword.
Crunch!
[Uoooo!]
“…Do you feel sad too?”
Lee Han’s sword split the bronze giant’s body in half, no, it was destroyed.
The intense cohesion of power emanating from his sword was so powerful that it completely and irreparably erased even the self-regenerating bronze giant.
But this is.
“… So that’s how powerful it was.”
It wasn’t exactly what Lee Han had intended.
It’s just that I didn’t know it would be this powerful since it was my first time using it in real combat.
– The sword is strong.
Lee Han learned a lesson from watching the superior version of Geomgi, also known as ‘Geomgang’.
‘Don’t use it on people, on people… .’
Unless you want to become a murderer for no reason.
