Chapter 436
outside the relic.
A fierce battle was taking place inside the labyrinth.
The two warlocks suddenly appeared and a clash began.
‘How did the black magician get here… … .’
Adela frowned as she slashed the black orb that had come close to her nose.
I never thought I’d be confronted with a black mage in here.
Where and how did you come from?
Considering the state of the black castle, it wouldn’t have been easy to get in.
‘Miss Stella broke down the outer wall once, so it would have been a little easier to break through… … .’
It wouldn’t have been easy to break through though.
How the hell did he break through that messy mana and get into it?
‘Does that mean he’s strong enough to easily penetrate?’
In fact, even though we are fighting 2:3 right now, the charter is running in parallel.
It is clear that he is a very talented person.
‘no. No matter how much power you possess, as long as you’re a magician, it’s impossible to break through that outer wall.’
In fact, Shin Ha-yul and Adela also couldn’t find any way.
The mana barrier that was settled was not something that a wizard could pierce.
‘Outside of skill. Does it mean that he possesses some special magic that can interfere with that promiscuous mana?’
It was when Adela was organizing her thoughts while confronting the two.
“Adela!”
Ji Soon-chan called Adela with an urgent expression.
“back!”
“… … !”
Adela looked back in surprise.
A strangely shaped wedge protrudes through the space.
It was like a ballista that could be fired at any moment, with a bag of space.
‘Dangerous!’
I don’t know what it is, but it’s definitely dangerous.
The part where mana is not detected at all looks particularly dangerous.
Adela immediately stretched out her left hand and activated her magic.
“I will assist!”
Elena’s hand overlapped on top of that hand, and a magic was manifested.
‘Windbreak grass.’
As the name suggests, a demon tree in the shape of a shield that looks suitable for blocking the wind.
It was formed exactly where it blocked the wedge.
‘It’s painful to use now, at the beginning of the battle, but… … .’
Windbreak is a demon tree that has the property of ‘repelling’ all mana.
Windbreak grass, as its name suggests, is a defensive magic with the power to deflect magic.
The only downside is that it consumes a lot of mental power due to its exceptional characteristics.
Among all the magic Elena possesses, it can be said to be fraudulent enough to fit within three fingers.
Wedge liquid!
At the same time that the windbreak was completed, the black wedge was triggered.
Like a bullet leaving a muzzle, a wedge that cuts through space and flies at a tremendous speed.
Looking at the wedge, Adela prepared her next move.
‘Even if that wedge is magic that surpasses windbreak grass, it’s impossible to penetrate it perfectly.’
Because the deceptive nature of the property itself is beyond imagination.
No matter how powerful magic is, it is impossible to pierce it at once.
Unconditionally stop once before drilling.
‘Leave using the gap where the wedge stopped.’
Just aim for that time and leave immediately.
Adela diverted all of her remaining mana to her lower body and began preparing to leave.
‘If the windbreak grass bounces off the wedge safely, then immediately move on to counterattack.’
Prepare for a breakaway and at the same time prepare for a counterattack.
It can be said that it is a close-to-perfect response.
Quaang!
Then the wedge collided with the windbreak.
A short roar.
It is not a roar caused by the clash of material things.
An ear-piercing friction sound created by mana colliding with mana.
The sound was very short and intense.
‘This sound… … .’
The short sound made Adela feel bad.
‘The reaction force is weak.’
The repulsive and frictional forces generated by mana clashes are intense enough to transcend imagination.
It’s normal for it to sound like a thunderclap.
Even if the sound was short, it was too short.
Even if the reaction force is weak, it is too weak.
‘The fact that the repulsive power is so weak means that the magic on one side is completely destroyed without using any power… … .’
To say that mana’s repelling force is not this far is the same as saying that one magic completely overpowered the other.
Usually, this only happened between magics with a difference of more than 5 circles, so considering Adela’s skills, this couldn’t happen.
Therefore, there is only one possibility left.
‘That wedge. Does it have a property that nullifies magic?’
Adela’s eyes widened.
The same was true of Elena’s expression, who was assisting Adela’s magic behind her.
Both had exactly the same thoughts, came to the same conclusions, and were equally dismayed.
‘If that wedge really has the property of nullifying magic… … .’
Regardless of whether the windshield deflects the magic, it has no meaning until the magic itself is nullified.
Windbreak grass is infinitely helpless in front of magic nullification magic.
‘It’ll break through. As easy as piercing a leaf with an awl.’
Adela immediately mobilized all the mana she had stored in her lower body and flung herself backwards.
I thought about running away to the side, but I just stopped thinking.
If I dodge to the side, I’ll be able to protect my heart, but I’ll be able to pierce my chest and shoulder blades.
If that happens, it’s actually a wire break.
That’s not right.
‘A little further back… … !’
Of course, even if you step back, nothing will change.
Rather, moving backwards is more like a handshake.
If you dodge sideways, you can only protect your heart, but if you dodge backwards, you can’t protect your heart either.
All you get is a very short time.
The only thing you can gain by avoiding it is a fleeting moment.
After that moment of time, you will eventually lose your heart and lose your life.
Backing down is the worst move.
‘You have to buy time. any more… … . Then obviously… … .’
However, this is only a story when Adela is fighting alone.
Today, Adela is not alone.
Now that there are colleagues, Adela’s back move is not a handshake.
rather graveyard.
It can be said that it is the only way out of this precarious situation.
Pajik, clang!
Just then, Adela’s windbreak was shattered.
As Adela expected, the windbreak did not keep the nettles at bay.
The windbreak grass shattered and turned into polygons of mana that flew across the sky.
“Kuk!”
A fast approaching black wedge.
In a slow-looking world.
It rushes quickly as if it took acceleration alone.
That wedge will soon pierce Adela’s chest.
‘5cm… 3cm… .’
Adela internally calculated the distance to the wedge.
‘1.5cm.’
Eventually, the wedge reached the place where Adela had been standing a little while ago.
If he had stayed still, or had moved aside, the wedge would have pierced his body at this moment, and he would have been seriously injured or killed.
‘1cm.’
Just before the wedge touched the front of Adela’s chest.
‘Miss Stella must now… … !’
Kaaaaang-!
A sharp crackling sound rang out.
The sound of a sword striking a wedge.
It rang right in front of Adela’s nose.
Caang, Cagan!
Not once, but three times.
The iron-specific crashing sound rose almost simultaneously.
‘also!’
It was Stella’s support.
While dealing with the man, he saw an opportunity and used his mind sword.
‘Can’t block the sword by nullifying magic.’
Stella’s sword stopped the movement of the wedge for a moment.
however.
“Don’t struggle for nothing.”
It was only a momentary stop.
“My magic can’t stop that much.”
With the female warlock’s sneer, the wedge that had stopped began to tremble and move again.
‘Up to the induction function?’
It seems that it cannot be solved by just blocking it once.
“Kuk!”
Adela opened the distance again.
‘If you can’t stop it even with Miss Stella’s heart sword… … What should I do?’
I widened my distance and came up with a solution.
However, nothing came to mind.
As long as she has the ability to nullify magic, there is nothing Adela can do.
Even Stella’s sword cannot completely block it.
There is absolutely no way to respond.
‘There is no way.’
A wedge flying faster than before.
Adela looked at the wedge and bit her lip.
“bye. Competent, but incompetent girl.”
The female warlock said her final goodbyes to Adela.
“joy.”
At that time, Ji Soon-chan snorted.
No, Asran, who occupied Ji Soon-chan’s body, sneered.
Jiing-!
A small portal formed right above Ji Sun-chan’s palm.
The portal opened just below Adela and the wedge.
“That’s stupid. do you have no eyes? You can’t stop it with magic.”
The woman laughed again.
Seeing Ji Soon-chan acting foolishly, he smiled sincerely.
Just when the wedge was about to touch Adela’s body again.
“You are stupid. Who said to block your wedges?”
Adela’s body was sucked into the portal.
The wedge stopped moving again.
It looked like it had lost its aim and was completely frozen.
“… … Space travel?”
The woman narrowed her eyes.
“It’s a nostalgic magic. I never expected to see that magic again here.”
Then, he glared at Ji Sun-chan with murderous eyes.
“you. What is your relationship with Aslan Polo Hamruin?”
Words that could not be ignored came out of the woman’s mouth.
Asran Polo Hamruin.
This woman knows Aslan.
“Have you not heard from your master?”
“To Vale-sama? no. What?”
All they were instructed by Vail was to retrieve Mora’s holy relic.
I haven’t heard of any other information.
“hmm. Didn’t you pass on that basic information?”
Aslan was sincere and sarcastic.
“I have a rough idea of your place in the organization.”
The woman frowned.
“… … that irritating tone. Are you Aslan?”
“Did you know that now? Jenarin.”
“… … Tsk.”
The woman clicked her tongue with an expression that she did not like the world.
“It’s been a while since I saw you. Hoderiam.”
“… … under.”
The man who was engaged in a 1:1 battle with Stella on the other side.
A man called Hoderiam laughed and exclaimed.
“Somehow I feel like a dick. Were you fucking Asran?”
Grinding his teeth, he glared at Aslan.
“Then is that Elena Law Greenwood?”
“Do you know Elena?”
Those two joined Saguk after Elena retired.
It’s normal that you don’t know because you’ve never fought or fought separately.
“You know the name. A forest wizard who used to deal with demon trees. Elena Law Greenwood. You are famous.”
Hoderiam looked at Adela.
“okay. You’re the wizard of the forest whom Vail-nim thought so much of as a thorn… … .”
He stroked his chin and smiled like he was having fun.
“however… … . Has your face changed? Have you ever reincarnated?”
“similar.”
Aslan answered with a sarcastic expression.
“… … okay. I mean reincarnation. It’s fun.”
Hoderiam smiled.
An electric current bounced between the eyes of the two.
“Then you guys have the same face. Did the veil resurrect it?”
Hoderiam replied with a triumphant smile.
“okay. Vail brought us back to life. we are the first one The other executives will also be revived one by one from now on.”
“… … Hoderiam. mouth.”
The woman, Jenarin, glared at Hoderiam. He asked why he was telling me all that.
“It doesn’t matter what you say. I wouldn’t be able to survive here anyway.”
The man laughed lightly.
“He is a man who knows all about the characteristics of our magic. Don’t assume you’ll win.”
“I know, so what? Reincarnation or something, the realm is so pathetic. Can you respond properly?”
Hoderiam laughed like he was laughing.
“… … That’s true too. It wasn’t a bad match to begin with.”
Jenarin glared at Aslan, then turned her attention to Adela.
“By the way, I guess the famous wizard of the forest wasn’t interested in the magic of distant juniors like us? What are the characteristics of my magic? I didn’t notice at all.”
“… … .”
Elena frowned.
“You understand. I heard that you did it today and tomorrow for quite a long time after retirement. They couldn’t afford to care about newbies like us.”
Elena saw Jenarin and Hoderiam for the first time today.
It was the first time I heard the name, and the first time I saw magic.
The reason is simple.
Because they are the elite soldiers of the four countries who started participating in the war after Adela left the front.
There was no time when the traffic lines overlapped with each other, so there was no way to know.
“The problem is the skill of that unknown swordsman… … Asran’s knowledge arranger. Well, considering the difference in skill, I don’t think there will be any chance of losing.”
Jenarin smiled brightly and prepared the magic.
Silence passed after that.
Aslan and Stella.
And an electric current bounced between Jenarin and Hoderiam.
“… … Adela.”
Seeing these four, Elena called Adela.
“Let’s be careful. I don’t want to admit it. Now we are like a burden.”
“… … yes.”
I hate to admit it, but I can’t become a force right now.
Lack of skills and knowledge.
Above all, compatibility is the worst.
All Elena and Adela can do now is run away as best they can without disturbing them.
“It will be 10 minutes soon. If you hold out a little longer, Hayul will come out. If you hold out until then… … .”
That’s how Elena was about to say that we should put our hopes on Shin Ha-yul’s return.
Piing-!
Suddenly, light began to emanate from Mora’s relic.
