A rift appeared in a dark place, and I stepped out of it.

When my entire body went through, the rift closed.

“I have finally completed my space magic……”

I checked my limbs and body. There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with them.

In the dark space of the Underworld Sphere, I thought of all ways to escape.

The Underworld Sphere, which was a special class of magic tool, rejects any kind of interference, physical or magical.

The only thing I could do inside was to think.

After thinking about it, I concluded that [Escape and destruction were impossible with magic that currently exists].

“Where am I? Inside a cave?”

If it was impossible to break the magic tool, then I would develop the magic that would allow me to escape without interference.

I used all my talents to the fullest.

I discarded all the common sense I had and recalled all magic formulas as if I was relearning it from scratch.

I took leap after leap, trying every one of the countless options available to me.

If that didn’t work, I would go back to the beginning.

I reviewed the origins of magic, and from there, my thoughts entered deep contemplation.

It was the result of me, a magician, challenging the limits of my talent.

Space Magic. [time] and [reason] allowed me to construct the future of magic in my mind.

I think the achievement of completing this future of magic will be my greatest achievement as a magician.

However, I didn’t complete it because I wanted something like that.

“That took me a long time. Underworld Sphere…… you were strong. You are dangerous, so I’ll secure you.”

When I was sealed inside, it was bigger, but now, it was back to a reasonable size.

I picked up the Underworld Sphere and checked my surroundings after.

It was a dark place different from the court where I was sealed, but I immediately understood.

After sealing me within the Underworld Sphere, Lidia must have hidden it here.

“Low-level light attribute magic……”

I produced a ball of light from the palm of my hand and illuminated the dark cave.

After finding the boulder in my path, I sighed deeply.

I’m completely trapped.

And the problem was, I had no idea where I was on the map.

“Space Grasping……”

Using space magic, I checked the surroundings, including the obstacles.

It was a great way to learn about a certain area of space, including living and inorganic matter.

It’s a good thing I just learned it. Good, good.

“There is a monster in front of the boulder. I don’t know how strong it is……. There’s no helping it, Spatial Transfer.”

I can transfer freely within the space that I had grasped.

But it can’t be applied to such a wide range yet.

""

Even though it is completed, it can still be improved.

The ball of light illuminated the monster before me after the transfer.

“Th-this monster is……”

Every living thing has a small amount of magic power.

By analyzing the flow, speed, and pattern of magic power, I was able to get a general idea of the strength of my opponent.

One of my jobs was to pass on the information I gathered to the Royal Army and Adventurer’s Guild.

Thanks to this, the subjugation of monsters within the country proceeded efficiently.

Name: Dark Serpent

Attack Power: 21,970

Defense Power: 19,677

Speed: 33,412

Magic: 1045

Skill: Night Vision

Yup, it wasn’t a monster that you’d find in the kingdom.

It’s the one that lives in the middle layer of the underground labyrinth [Tartarus]’s unexplored zone.

Its level was comparable to an executive of the Demon King that I subdued before.

Its skill Night Vision was a troublesome skill that increases its accuracy when in the dark.

After receiving requests from other countries to investigate, I dived into Tartarus, where it was discovered.

A class 1 adventurer party had not returned, and even the army went missing, so there was no reason to refuse them.

But no matter how much I wanted to investigate, it was such an inhospitable place that I thought about turning back.

Now that I thought about it, the fact that I was able to complete the investigation to the lowest level has trained me a lot.

“I have a lot of things to think about, but first, I have to get rid of this snake!”

If this monster gets out, it would be dangerous even for the entire knight order.

It was a monster that’s designated as a national disaster. I’m not even sure why it’s here.

“Kishaaaaaa!”

“This…… cave may collapse!”

The snake tried to eat me as it opened its mouth and charged at super high speed, leaving behind clean teeth marks all over the rock surfaces that it passed through.

However, I have strengthened my physical abilities with magic power. I can easily avoid it. The only thing left to worry about was the cave!

“I’m not sure if I will succeed but…… Space Cutting!”

With a flick of my finger, the Dark Serpent’s head and background were cut in a single swift motion.

As the background cracked open, the Dark Serpent’s head fell into the darkness.

I shouldn’t be relieved by this.

That thing was very stubborn, so I had to be careful.

I followed the normal procedure and split its undulating body.

After everything was done, only then did the background return to normal.

All things cannot exist without space.

In other words, all things that depended on space cannot maintain their existence when space is divided.

Just as there was nothing that could resist the passage of time, there was nothing that could escape from the concept of space.

I trembled at my own power.

“As expected, I could beat it…… but this is not good.”

I checked my status.

Name: Soalis

Attack Power: 2 + 50,000 (Magic Enhancement Correction)

Defense Power: 2 + 50,000 (Magic Enhancement Correction)

Speed: 2 + 50,000 (Magic Enhancement Correction)

Magic: 1,250,000

Skill: Complete Understanding of Magical Formulas

“This was a relief when against the Dark Serpent, but can I suppress it normally?”

""

I was relieved to be able to check my status after so long.

I remembered when I was a kid that my magic was already over 10,000

Then my magic power gradually increased, and by the time I thought it was amazing, it was already several tens of thousands.

When I entered the Academy of Magic at 10 years old, it was a little over 200,000. By the time I graduated, it was about 600,000.

In just a few years as a saint, it had more than doubled.

The skill [Complete Understanding of Magic Formulas] was a seemingly obscure skill that involves understanding everything about magic.

If you take time to learn future magic, it was possible to master it. It was even possible to do [no chanting] that magicians longed to do.

It was even possible to minimize magic power consumption. And if you want, you can even check your own status and skills with the flow of your own magic power.

In fact, I’ve never fought with my magic power fully released.

More than my magical power value, what was really amazing was the Complete Understanding of Magic Formulas.

With this, I was able to acquire space magic. I even thought that there was nothing that I couldn’t do.

“……A~ah”

I suddenly recalled the kingdom trial.

Obtaining Elixir, the Underworld Sphere, and a sealing art. That girl was the one who did all of these.

I thought of my little sister Lidia.

“Nice try, Lidia. But…… thanks to you, I’m now a criminal for possessing Elixirs.”

I’ve been involved in magic since I was a child. I even cut down on my sleeping hours for it.

There was a time when my parents were worried and stopped me.

I reflected on my recklessness and making my parents worry.

I wonder what Lidia, who framed me and even sealed me up, is doing now?

I wonder if she has finally become a saint?

Either way, everything was taken from me. I’m sure father and mother are both disappointed.

I worked so hard for this.

I wanted to make the two people I love happy.

All I wanted was to make everyone smile.

“Lidia…….!”

A crack appeared on the cave wall, causing the ground to crack.

I thought I’d gotten past the stage of raging magical outbursts by now, but I guess I’m not ready yet.

As if to shake off my upset emotions, I started to run outside.

The light coming from the entrance was nostalgic and dazzling.
