Episode 361: I'm a Magician Too (3)
Delmude was startled when he saw Giselle emerging from the flames.
"That guy… … ."
If your skills are excellent, it is possible. Fire Storm is an area-of-effect attack spell, so its power is weak when concentrated in one place.
But even so, it is a 7th circle magic. It is so powerful that it would melt an average knight without even a single soot stain.
The opponent's mana amount seemed to be greater than expected. Delmud immediately prepared the next spell.
Jiselle raised her head with glowing red eyes. She felt a tremendous amount of magical power gathering around Delmude again.
"Slow."
Boom!
The floor shattered and Jiselle's body flew towards Delmud.
At one point, a crimson aura blade extended from his sword.
"Huh!"
Before Delmude could complete his magic, the Auror Blade swung towards him.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Delmude instantly canceled the casting and created a shield of fire in front of him.
Wow!
"Kwaaah!"
The hastily made fire shield was torn apart by the aura blade that could cut through anything. At the same time, Delmude's chest was cut lengthwise and blood gushed out.
"Tch."
Jiselle clicked her tongue in regret and came down to the ground.
If it had been another guy, his body would have been torn in half long ago, but at that moment, he reduced the power of the Aura Blade. It seemed like he wasn't a 7th circle magician for nothing.
But it was worth a try.
"It seems like it hasn't reached a mature level yet."
Delmude had only been in the 7th circle for a few years. As a result, his magical power usage speed was somewhat slow.
And, as expected of a wizard who lived a noble life, he didn't seem to have much combat experience.
To effectively deal with such an opponent, you must force them to use their powerful magic recklessly.
Hurrruk!
Around Jiselle, blazing red spears were created again.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Dozens of spears flew towards Delmud like arrows being shot.
"this guy!"
Of course, Delmud was not one to be taken advantage of at this level. With one gesture of his hand, flames burst out and the approaching spears disappeared in vain.
The problem was the attack that followed.
Jiing―!
"Blink!"
Delmude's body shook and disappeared, then reappeared a while later.
At some point, the empty space was split by Giselle's Aura Blade.
Delmud tried to use powerful magic during the gap, but it wasn't easy.
Wheaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
In an instant, a black aura gathered in the air and flew like a ray of light. Delmud had no choice but to quickly use his magic to dodge.
Zing! Zing! Zing! Zing!
From all sides, dark red smoke began to gather and turn into sharp points. Now, they were nothing more than skewers that had not even properly taken the shape of a spear.
But Delmude couldn't come to his senses as they were created in dozens and flew away.
Since he was unable to concentrate enough to use the powerful magic of the high circle, he responded with a magic that could be cast relatively quickly.
"Protect me!"
Paaaaak!
Something was burning in the air, sparkling with flames. The flames soon gathered into his palm.
Soon, the flames formed into a sphere and enveloped Delmud's body. The fireballs danced, streaming a brilliant ruby-like red.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
The spear flying towards Delmud collided with the fireball circling around him and exploded.
It's just that it's hard to use magic that requires time and concentration, but not being able to use it doesn't mean the power of a 7th Circle magician goes anywhere.
Delmude quickly unleashed his magic with his overflowing magical power and willpower.
"Fire field."
Paaaaah!
The magical power that stretched out beneath his feet spread out in an instant, burning the earth.
At one point, the land of flames broke free of the magic field's barrier and rippled as if it would swallow everything up.
As the greatest wizard of the Flame School, Delmud was turning the entire world into a sea of fire with just one spell.
"Blood, avoid it!"
At Hubert's shout, everyone was startled and distanced themselves further apart.
Then Vanessa grabbed Alfoy's wrist tightly.
Alfoy blushed and said.
"Don't keep grabbing me so suddenly!"
Vanessa, who had absorbed Alfoy's magic, stretched out her hand toward the approaching flames.
"Aqua Field."
Ddddddd!
The moisture that had dissolved in the air and permeated the earth was moved by her magic.
The moisture that had gathered thus soon formed a huge belt that began to block the approaching flames.
Cheeeeeeek!
The steam spread out so thickly that it obscured the vision. However, even that was not enough to completely block the flames of the 7th Circle Wizard.
"profit!"
As Vanessa gritted her teeth and tried to gather more magic power, the sound of wizards shouting urgent commands could be heard from around her.
"Earth Shape!"
"Ice Wall!"
"Water Strike!"
From all sides, everyone began to do their best to block the approaching flames.
As dozens of wizards joined forces, the flames that had been spreading out slowed down and soon stopped.
But Delmud had no time to consider such a situation. His only target was Giselle, who was jumping around in the sea of fire and trying to attack him.
"Burning Fire."
Whoosh whoosh!
A huge stream of fire continued to stream from his hand, chasing after Giselle.
"Ugh!"
Kwaaang!
Jiselle gathered mana in her feet and struck the ground. Then the flames were pushed aside and extinguished in an instant.
He took his position and fixed his posture firmly, then drew out his Auror Blade and swung it forward.
Paaaaah!
The stream of fire that had been pouring down on him ceaselessly split in half.
It wasn't just a simple split. The mana that shot out sharply from the Aura Blade continued to extend, cutting through the flames that Delmud was pouring out.
"Huh!"
Delmude had no choice but to turn his body.
Scratch!
The front of his robe was split by an invisible force. He couldn't relax because of these attacks that occasionally came flying at him.
Paaak!
Before Delmud could even straighten his posture, crimson spears flew in from all directions again.
"this!"
Delmude quickly created fireballs around his body to block the spears.
Phew!
Wheaaaaaaaaa!
Taking advantage of the brief gap, another spear flew in. Delmud moved through space to dodge, but there were still spears flying there.
"how!"
Delmude shouted absentmindedly. It was as if he had already set a trap for her, knowing where she would run.
Pupupupupu!
As a 7th circle wizard, I managed to block it, but I ended up getting hit by several spears and getting hurt.
Before I could even handle the shock, another spear flew at me. I dodged it, and at some point, Jiselle appeared with a ferocious laugh and swung her sword.
Squeak!
"Ugh… … ."
Delmude managed to dodge by teleporting through space this time as well. However, he was unable to completely escape and ended up getting part of his body cut again.
Zing! Zing! Zing! Zing!
"Ugh… … ."
There's no time to rest even for a moment. If you keep going like this, you'll keep getting pushed back and little by little, you'll use up all your magic power.
The more you confront him, the more difficult his fighting style becomes. It's hard to understand how that young man fights so well.
I had heard that he was a guy who fought as if he was eating rice, but it was beyond my imagination.
"This insolent bastard!"
He acknowledged Giselle's skills. The man was also very accustomed to fighting magicians.
He had that much strength and his fighting sense was incomparable to mine.
In the end, Delmude decided to change his fighting style. If things continued this way, there really was no way out.
"Eww!"
In a fit of rage, he unleashed all his magical power.
Gooooooooooo!
Phew! Phew! Phew!
The magical spears shot by Jiselle exploded before they could even reach Delmud.
An enormous magical power began to take over the space and crush all directions.
Ddddddddd!
Jiselle smiled, revealing her white teeth and her eyes glowing red.
"Now it's really starting."
The amount of magical power of a 7th circle wizard is on a different level from that of ordinary wizards. No matter how hard he pushes, Delmud will somehow endure.
If that happens, it won't be easy to reach a conclusion even if you fight all day long. The more you explode with magical power, the shorter your duration will be.
But Delmud had become caught up in his fighting style and had unleashed all his magical power. Now was the time to clash with strength and decide the outcome.
Delmud poured an enormous amount of magical power into each spell, as if he was trying to finish it all at once.
"Fire pillar."
Kwaaaaang!
A huge pillar of fire rose up where Giselle had been. It wasn't just one pillar of fire. Wherever Giselle moved, the ground would burst open and fire would shoot out.
Kwaaaaang! Kwaaaaang! Kwaaaaang!
As soon as Jiselle felt the magic gathering on the ground, she immediately dodged.
It was truly an amazing feeling. I felt it even before the magic was manifested.
To those watching from a distance, it looked like Giselle had been consumed by the pillar of fire, because their eyes could not follow Giselle's movements.
Even while dodging, Jiselle continued to throw her magic spears to Delmude, preventing him from focusing properly.
Kwaaaaang! Kwaaaaang! Kwaaaaang!
The two fought so quickly that they were not even noticed by others.
Alfoy, who had suddenly had his magic sucked out and was shriveled up, muttered while being held in Vanessa's arms.
"Is the story of the lord's fighting skills real… … . My heart is pounding… … ."
Alpoy also knows that Jiselle is good at fighting. He has seen her kill dozens or hundreds of people by herself.
But this is definitely the first time I've seen someone so confidently stand up to someone as skilled as a 7th Circle wizard.
It was the same for the others. The magicians of the Red Flame Tower saw Jiselle fighting for the first time.
They watched the battle between the two with expressions of horror, trembling.
"Is it true that Earl Fenris was really the Master?"
"You can even use magic there… … ."
"How many circles have you reached by that point?"
It was surprising that he was a master I had only heard of through rumors, but he was also using strange magic. I couldn't tell what school of magic he was from, but in any case, it was magic.
Even if it was used as an auxiliary weapon, its destructive power and speed were not ordinary. That is why they could not help but think that Jiselle's magical skills were extremely outstanding.
In fact, it was nothing more than just randomly firing a bunch of magic power.
The Crimson Tower wizards were more surprised than the Red Flame Tower people.
"That's ridiculous, it's hard to reach the realm with just one… … ."
"How can you hone your swordsmanship and magic to that extent at that age!"
"It's impossible, it's impossible."
They never wanted to admit it. Even though Giselle's skills were outstanding, they were just too outstanding.
At first, they thought that their top lord would win easily. However, looking at the situation, they were being pushed back like crazy.
This was nonsense. Why are the 7th Circles called superhumans? They are called superhumans because they can fight an army alone.
But how can you fight such a superhuman like that!
When Delmud ascended to the top, Jisel was nothing more than a scorned child, even in the North. He had ascended to the position of a great lord in just a few years, and was now showing skills that rivaled those of a superhuman.
A deep sense of defeat and inferiority welled up in their hearts.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The two were still fighting, burning the surroundings to the ground.
Delmud poured his magical power into the spell, which could be cast quickly, increasing its power exponentially.
The heavens and the earth shook, and the surroundings burned ceaselessly. In the midst of the flames that engulfed the world, Giselle seemed infinitely small.
But it just looks that way because all around it is engulfed in flames.
Kwaaang!
With every step Giselle took, sparks erupted and then died down.
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo!
The spears of magic were constantly being created and flying towards Delmud. They were blocked by flames and burst countless times, but the number of spears shooting was endless.
Delmude was pushed back without realizing it, even while casting his magic, because so many were shot out.
The nature of the fight was gradually turning into a battle of strength.
Dark, who was with Giselle, was slightly surprised as he watched the situation inside Giselle.
'Wow, master, you really fight well.'
I never thought I'd be able to fight on equal terms with such a monstrous being. I knew he was strong, but this is the first time I've seen him fight properly.
'No, compared to that crazy memory, it was stronger back then.'
The amazing strength I am showing now is not even half of what I remember seeing back then.
I thought he was just a crazy guy, but that wasn't the case. It seemed like he had actually returned to the past with knowledge of the future.
It makes no sense, but if not, the current situation also makes no sense.
'I must ask him after this battle is over.'
In order for the battle to end safely, this body must live. If this body dies, Dark will also end. No matter how much I looked here, I couldn't find anyone who could fit in.
Dark's voice rang in Giselle's head.
- Master, I think I'm starting to run out of mana.
Thanks to Dark's ability, my mana had been greatly amplified. However, because I was using such strong power, my mana was being consumed at a rapid rate.
"Okay, okay. I guess I should wrap things up soon."
Anyway, it was a battle of strength and strength. Now, I had to put aside my tricks and settle the matter once and for all.
Ddddddddd!
As Jiselle activated the third stage core, an enormous amount of mana began to flow out of her body.
- Master, master! This is not right!
Dark screamed in horror. Now, Jiselle could generate more power than before without activating the Stage 3 core.
This is because even if you only activate the 2nd stage core, the mana increases exponentially due to Dark's ability.
Stage 3 is a power that increases several times more than Stage 2. When combined with Dark's ability, it becomes a power that is incomparable to the original.
The problem is that Giselle's body can't handle that much power yet. It's because her core and body aren't in balance.
- My body is going to explode!
Then Giselle said with a ferocious smile.
"You can kill him before that."
Kwaaaaaaaah!
Crimson mana began to spurt out madly from Giselle's body.
