Chapter 285
Umbra, God of Shadows.
A god classified as an evil god.
She looked at me, licking her lips with a seductive smile.
“Answer me. What will you give in return?”
devil’s temptation
It was a smile that could only come to mind.
“sense. life span. memory. body. Anything good. If that is important to you.”
A voice like licking your ears.
“The more precious it is to you, the more precious it is. The power you will gain will be that much stronger.”
It was a charming voice that captivated people.
It was so enticing that I almost nodded my head without thinking.
Perhaps his innate charisma has degenerated into an ability called ‘charm’.
If my mental barrier had been weak, it would have penetrated the gap and controlled my mind.
“Unfortunately.”
But that didn’t happen.
My mental barrier is impenetrable to no one.
Even if my opponent is not Umbra, but the greatest evil god in the world, it is impossible to interfere with my mind.
“I have no intention of giving you anything.”
“… … .”
The smile disappeared from Umbra’s face.
“Hmm.”
Like it’s fun, like it hurts my pride. It was an expression of conflicting emotions at the same time.
“Sorry, but that’s not possible. since you’ve been here If you didn’t intend to make a deal, you shouldn’t have come here in the first place.”
Umbra slowly rose from her seat.
With the rise of Umbra, the throne turned into a shadow again and was absorbed by Umbra.
As if the remaining shadows had been absorbed and the strength had grown stronger, the monotone world had become a bit darker.
“Did you warn me? It was you who ignored the warning. You must pay the price.”
again. again.
The distinctive sound of high heels echoed regularly.
Umbra slowly approaching.
She stood in front of my nose, raised her hand and cupped my chin.
“If you can’t choose. i will choose are you okay?”
With the other hand, I slowly sweep my body down.
“It’s okay even if you tear off your limbs.”
Starting at the shoulder line, sweep down my arm.
With his legs, he sweeps my thighs.
By deliberately touching my limbs, he must be trying to heighten his fear.
“It’s okay if I pull out my heart.”
Next, I twirled my chest and touched it.
“or not… … It would be nice to take away the senses without difficulty.”
He took his hand away from me for a moment and used the shadow to block my eyes and ears.
Vision and hearing blocked in an instant.
It must be a means to arouse my fear.
“What do you like? Personally, I recommend choosing the five senses. Surprisingly, I can endure it. The power you can get is not very small.”
After Umbra ran his index finger across my jawline one last time and smiled seductively. completely withdrawn from me.
“I should have told you.”
I made direct eye contact with Umbra and answered firmly.
“I have nothing to give you.”
second rejection.
This time, Umbra’s expression changed ferociously.
Now, beyond the level of hurting his pride, it is an expression that he cannot control his anger.
“me. I hate to say it twice.”
Isn’t it a problem that you don’t want to give?
Her eyes were saying that.
“I just hate repeating the same thing. So don’t make me say it three times.”
Like I said, I have no intention of giving you a single nail.
With that will, I glared at Umbra.
“… … Cheeky little boy. I can’t even figure out my subject.”
Umbra’s expression cooled.
“good. If you come out like that, I have no choice but to handle things according to my own will.”
Of the black and white colors that surrounded the sanctuary, only black began to vibrate violently.
As if it were an earthquake, Nanyang trembling black. Black immediately began to gather around Umbra.
“If I had been a little older, extenuating circumstances might have been possible. A cheeky little boy is not my taste.”
The monotone world instantly turned into a pure white world.
The blackness scattered by Umbra disappeared, and the Sanctuary of Shadows regained its original white color.
“I will take all of your life. I think that will ease this anger a little.”
The Shadow Sanctuary trembled as if in response to Umbra’s fury.
The shadow of Umbra gradually increasing its strength as if it were meshing with him.
The main body had already died a long time ago, and it was a powerful force that could not be imagined as half of a state close to a specter with only thoughts remaining.
Its power glared at me, thrusting out its ferocious fangs.
“I never thought I would say this three times. I will say it one last time.”
By the time the shadow started to cover my whole body like that.
“You cannot take anything from me.”
Roaring!
Suddenly a fire broke out.
The primordial flame that burns everything in the world.
The supreme flame that was born first when creating the world.
“Eh, Ignis?”
Ignis.
It wrapped around me as if it were protecting my body.
“How could Ignis enter my world… … .”
This world is the world of Umbra, which exists only for Umbra.
Entities that Umbra does not allow cannot invade.
Things like Ignis shouldn’t exist in this world, so it’s normal.
“My partner ran a little too much. Why did you find a way?”
Observe and analyze the reactions of Umbra and Ignis.
A reasonable hypothesis was established, and based on that hypothesis, a conclusion that was infinitely close to the correct answer was presented.
Mimir Bel Bytenor.
It is all thanks to her that I am able to stand here with Ignis.
“You cheeky little boy… … .”
Umbra bit his lip with a ferocious expression.
It’s an expression that realized what I was trying to do.
“okay… … . Now I know what you’re thinking. Burn a part of me with Ignis, and take control of even a part of my holy relic?”
“yes.”
I can only burn about 10% with my current skills.
Therefore, the control that can be obtained is also 10%.
“I don’t ask for much. I will take 10% of you.”
“… … Be cocky. It’s just too arrogant.”
Umbra’s eyes grew darker.
“It’s not enough to dare to take something away from me. Bringing the hateful Ignis with you.”
A lively gaze.
It was an expression that contained a firm will to kill me at any moment.
“good. take it. It’s frustrating, but it’s okay because it’s not okay.”
Umbra can’t beat Ignis. No matter what.
“But you have to be prepared. It won’t be like this next time.”
This is the last time Ignis can enter the relic of Umbra.
Just as security once breached cannot be breached twice for the same reason.
Umbra’s holy relic will perfectly secure the breached gap, preventing Ignis from approaching it a second time.
“I’ll promise. The next day you come back here.”
Umbra licked her lips.
It was like licking blood.
“I will definitely kill you.”
“Even after hearing those warnings, do you think I will come back?”
“huh. will come.”
Umbra smiled confidently.
“You will want more of my power. You can’t be satisfied with just 10%. You will definitely come back here again. and… … .”
Flames began to slowly erode the monotone world.
6%, 7%.
Red light sources were engraved here and there in the pure white sanctuary.
“You will die to me. As it always has been.”
A world that slowly fades away.
Umbra’s body also slowly began to turn gray.
My connection with this world is gradually fading.
“I will look forward to that day. see you again Cheeky kid.”
Exactly 10%.
Starting from Ignis encroaching on this world.
“yes. Well, I guess I’ll see you again.”
My body also blurred.
Now we are really at the end.
“Maybe it will be a slightly different meeting than you expected.”
At the end of my words, the world has completely lost its light.
And the next time you open your eyes
“… … done.”
I was standing in the room of the head of the deepest part of the counterterrorism headquarters again.
I slowly poured mana into the holy relic of Umbra that I was holding in my right hand.
At the same time, a shadow began creeping out.
A soft and low-density shadow on a different level from the shadow used by the previous shadow.
It moved around and changed shape at my will.
“… … good.”
success.
Umbra safely became my strength as a mythic magic.
“With this, all conditions are cleared.”
I straightened out the shadows and went outside.
1 hour and 24 minutes remained until the time Anti Magia requested.
Everything is ready.
“mister.”
I headed straight to the main control room and called the man who was waiting for me.
“Please contact others. I will start the operation right away.”
* * *
Restrooms located at the end of the airport.
“miss. It seems to be anti-magia as well.”
Adela and Adela’s butler, who had luckily escaped the hands of the terrorists, were concentrating on assessing the situation.
“Communication cut off. block mana. Even though an hour and a half has passed, the proper response team is still not moving… … . This would be impossible if it weren’t for Anti-Magia.”
The last one is the biggest reason.
Korea’s inexperienced response.
There was no way I could have been helpless like this unless it was at the level of Anti-Magia.
“Isn’t it still difficult to conclude?”
“no. sure I heard gunshots from the lobby… … .”
Of the groups capable of such a massive terror, the Anti-Magia is the only group that uses outdated weapons such as gunpowder guns.
Unless they are always equipped with crazy bombs called Anti-Magia, there is no reason to use a gunpowder gun over a good magic engineering gun.
“Powder gun… … . okay.”
Adela bit her lip with a cold expression.
Anti Magia.
Please, I hope it’s not just them.
“It must be Anti Magia. It’s the worst.”
As long as the opponent is Anti Magia, the chances of survival are very slim.
Perhaps they will end their lives here with a high probability.
“no. Not the worst. Fortunately, they didn’t catch me.”
Now that they are not captured, I can look for an opportunity to escape somehow.
… … Even that is incredibly difficult.
Still, I can say I’m lucky.
“First, let’s plan an escape route. No matter how great their encirclement is, it won’t be able to cover all of this wide Incheon Airport. Clearly there is a gap… … .”
The butler, who had been saying something like that, suddenly shut his mouth.
“… … miss.”
A look that suddenly became serious.
“yes. I sensed it too.”
Adela’s expression was not too different from that of the butler.
“three. No, four.”
“yes. That’s four.”
Someone is coming this way.
If there is a person who can move like that in this situation, there is only one.
“Looks like the 2nd reconnaissance team.”
terrorist.
They’re looking for citizens they might not have captured.
“Please cling to me. As before, we will move on to stealth magic.”
“yes.”
Adela clung to the butler’s arms.
The butler immediately used stealth magic, hiding everything including presence and mana.
It was a fairly crude stealth, but the opponents were dumbfounded terrorists who didn’t even know how to use magic.
Even this level of stealth is enough.
In fact, it went through safely like this before.
Tuck, Tuck.
The sound of the bathroom tiles and boots colliding was particularly loud.
‘one person.’
There is only one footstep.
The rest waited outside, and only one entered the bathroom.
Now, after opening each of the toilet compartments like before.
After making sure no one is there, I’ll turn around again.
It was like that before, so it will be like this again.
The two were so sure.
however.
“If you’re hiding here, come out.”
The convictions of the two were hopelessly misplaced.
“I will warn you in advance. Don’t think of hiding with stealth magic or something.”
The man said with a very calm expression.
“I now have Anti Magia.”
“… … !”
The butler and Adela’s eyes widened.
“I plan to open the bathroom door after door with this. Then if you are using stealth magic… … .”
The man deliberately kept quiet.
There was no need to say what the outcome would be at that moment.
‘Anti Magia reacts with the stealth magic’s mana and explodes.’
And starting with that explosion, other Anti-Magias will also be affected and cause a series of explosions.
‘It’s the worst.’
A cold sweat broke out on the butler’s forehead. If what that man said was true, I couldn’t continue to use stealth magic.
‘Considering the mana release range of stealth magic, the moment he opens the door to this compartment… … .’
just explode
then that’s it.
He will leave this world without leaving even a handful of his body behind.
‘But if you use the stealth magic here… … .’
The butler looked down at Adela in his arms.
Dear precious lady.
There’s no way that anti-magia-level guys don’t know Adela’s face.
‘I can’t hand the lady over to them.’
When Anti Magia executes a famous wizard whose face is known, it is accompanied by terrible torture.
Until the time of self-destruction, he was subjected to terrible torture, and then exploded.
That is the end of the mage captured by Anti Magia.
You can never let that happen.
‘Now that it’s like this… … .’
The butler whispered in Adela’s ear.
‘miss. stealth magic. Please.’
‘yes… … ? what are you trying to do… … .’
‘I don’t have time to explain. Please.’
‘… … yes. All right.’
Adela used stealth magic.
‘Excellent. Please stay.’
Even if the butler breaks the stealth with this, Adela’s stealth will not be broken.
‘no way… … .’
Adela’s eyes widened.
The butler noticed what he was about to do.
The butler smiled kindly.
And then, as it were, he let go of Adela.
bang!
came out
“what. I wondered if it really happened, right?”
The man laughed bitterly.
“As expected, the advice of seniors should not be taken carelessly. Hee hee.”
Found a wizard.
I was delighted with that fact.
“So, is this advice right?”
The man turned his gaze away from the butler and glared at the bathroom cubicle from which the butler had just come out.
“there. Who else is hiding?”
Adela’s heart sank.
“What are you talking about?”
The butler responded with a calm expression. He is not immature enough to show embarrassment on his face.
“no. the senior did Usually, there are at least two members of the wizard family… … .”
The man pointed his rifle at the toilet cubicle.
“If one jumps out quickly at the first warning, there’s a good chance there will be others… … .”
Do-do-do-do-do-do!
Before the butler could do anything, the man started shooting indiscriminately.
‘Should I stop it? No, no. If you use defensive magic here… … !’
It explodes with Anti Magia as it is.
Magic cannot be used.
“miss… … !”
There was nothing the butler who couldn’t use magic could do.
Toilet cubicles that quickly became rags.
“Chehehe. miss. girl After all, who was there?”
Seeing that, the man grabbed his stomach and laughed.
It is a very happy expression.
“It’s like noble wizards can’t respond properly to these old-fashioned weapons. Hee hee.”
With a very happy expression on his face, the man changed the magazine.
Then, before he had time to say anything more, he fired again at the partition.
“It feels so good!?”
“no… … !”
“Uhehehehehe!”
The indiscriminate rampage started again like that.
“Die, die! kill it! Ha ha ha!”
The partitions, which were already just rags, completely shattered and fell to the floor.
The man’s smile deepened.
Now, from within, the blood-stained elite will reveal themselves.
How beautiful would that look be?
My head was filled with such thoughts.
however.
“… … Eh?”
The man’s expectations were misguided.
In the place where the toilet cubicle disappeared, a black cubicle took its place.
“darkness… … No, is it a shadow?”
Something strange that looks like a shadow. maybe it’s magic
“Puha! dumbass! It’s over now!”
The man threw his rifle on the floor and shouted.
“You killed it! All the hostages in here! that you killed! Hee hee hee!”
Expecting the Anti Magia to explode soon, he went mad.
“Ugh… he?”
however.
“It doesn’t explode.”
Anti Magia showed no signs of exploding.
“Because this guy has the property of absorbing all the mana he has, far from releasing mana.”
A shadow slowly disappearing.
A man appeared in it.
A man whose face is half-shadowed is hugging a surprised blonde woman.
“you… … .”
A famous face that even men are familiar with.
“God’s rate?”
Shin Ha-yul appeared in the airport.
