31. Chasing the Warlock (6)

Just after being attacked by a mysterious group, Hermis and the knights arrived.

“As expected! Mr. Judas! And Miss Elijah!”

From afar, she shouted happily.

It’s only for a moment that the enemies panic.

Aim the crossbow at us again.

“All weapons… !”

The moment Dylan gives the order.

A light appeared.

Golden flames surround the front in a hemispherical shape.

This is Elijah’s magic.

A curtain of fire protected us.

The projectiles fired were scattered and burned.

Dylan hurriedly ordered.

“Those who are fine will join the front ally after dealing with the enemy from the rear! Lindell, Jerry! You two look for the wounded first!”

“f*cking bastards-!”

Richard cursed and jumped back.

A number of people follow him.

I collided with an enemy blocking the way to the underground city.

In the meantime, Lindell approached me.

“Judas. Are you okay?”

“Grunt…. It hurts.”

“Be patient, I will remove it.”

From the side, Elijah looks at her anxiously.

“Pull?”

“Yes… !”

I gritted my teeth.

A sharp and hard thing digging into my back comes out.

“Turn it off… !”

I bit my molars and held back my screams.

Then, Elijah quickly reached out her hand upwards in front of her.

A sharp ball of fire emerged from her hand.

It soars in an oblique direction like an arrow.

A large ice spear was summoned in front of the fireball’s direction.

‘Ice Spear?’

The fire shot by Elijah collided at the exact timing when it was summoned.

The two magics collided and exploded.

In the aftermath, waves spread.

The two offsetting attributes emit steam.

Broken ice and water droplets poured down like rain.

“I pulled it out!”

And finally, the bolt was pulled out.

“I’m dying of pain…. Is there any poison?”

“Fortunately, I think so.”

“Judas, stay still.”

Elijah put her hand on my back.

The pain subsides quickly.

I can feel my weight healing.

It was a healing magic.

“Ah…. Thank you, lady.”

“There is a wizard among them. I love that guy….”

“Kwaaah-!”

A loud scream from behind.

Looking back in surprise, it was Hador struggling with the bolt removed.

After that, you can see Richard and his allies fighting hard.

Richard happened to be sword to sword with the enemy.

Perhaps the opponent has decent skills and strength, Richard and his sword stand against it.

Richard seemed to push with force, then he grabbed his opponent’s wrist with one hand and pulled.

Instantaneous balance tilting.

The opponent puts his front foot to regain balance, and Richard quickly kicks it.

‘Heel spanking. It’s neat.’

The enemy fell and his throat was cut at the same time.

It is worthwhile to teach continuously for 5 years.

Everyone has become proficient enough to use them in real combat.

Looking at Hador, whose complexion was pale, I said to Elijah.

“Could you heal that Hador too?”

“… ….”

“If you don’t like it….”

“I’ll do it for you.”

It’s a reluctant tone.

Elijah seemed to disappear, but she appeared beside Hador.

Quickly heal the wound on her ankle.

That speed was instantaneous.

Before Hador could say hello, Elijah came back to my side.

‘Still, it’s my bodyguard, so I don’t know if it’s too cold.’

Hador, the person in charge, greeted loudly.

“Thank you, lady-!”

Okay. In this situation, he healed his injuries in seconds.

It doesn’t matter if you’re cold and sleeping.

Elijah stood up and said,

“I will deal with the wizard.”

She is our escort and master.

But ironically, she doesn’t really need active help.

Because it’s a force superior to all of us put together.

At the point where the first surprise attack failed, they were no different from losing.

I said.

“… Don’t get hurt If anything happens, call me.”

“… ….”

Elijah stared at me, then pulled her scarf up under her eyes.

For some reason, the tips of her ears are red.

Belatedly, she answered, avoiding her gaze.

“… Huh.”

The figure of Elijah disappeared.

Looks like they tracked down the wizard with a teleport.

“After securing the safety of the rear, go to the front and join the allies!”

Dylan exclaimed.

I couldn’t stand still either.

Wheek-! And blew a loud whistle.

From far away, hopping up a cliff, Yuel approached.

Flexibly avoids bolts and occasionally kicks enemies to make them fall.

Finally, Yuel is right in front of my nose.

I climbed on top of him and stroked his neck.

“Right, right. Nice to meet you.”

While my allies face the ground, I will run over cliffs with Yuel.

To deal with those who jumped out.

“I don’t see any injuries. Can you run again?”

Yuel answered by rolling on the ground.

“Okay. Let’s go.”

My body flew up into the air in an instant.

You can look down on enemies located throughout the gorge.

***

From noble mtl dot com

Elijah stood in front of the wizard straight through the teleport.

All wore the same black robes, but it was easy to spot the mage.

The tallest cliff overlooking the entire gorge.

The wizard who had been waiting against the wall clapped his hands and walked forward.

The corner of the mouth smiles under the hood.

“Yeah. You are great too The magician of the second coming of the mythical age. It’s not enough to find it right away, so I thought you’d move this distance without error.”

Elijah did not answer.

With its golden pupils, it just stares at the opponent as if it will melt them.

My heart was beating wildly from earlier.

Judah attacked himself.

And Judas, who was hit by a bolt while protecting it.

I couldn’t calm down as I kept thinking of the two scenes that were intense in many ways.

“It’s scary when you stare like that. Are you that angry that your precious lover almost died?”

“… ?”

Elijah tilted her head for the moment.

It is a strange provocation.

It’s so out of the blue that I’m somewhat relieved.

She doesn’t have a lover herself?

“Maybe it’s because he’s a wizard who has learned black magic, he seems to be out of his mind.”

“Ooh…. That’s amazing. Did you even figure that out?”

“I feel the same way as your colleague who died in there.”

The wizard crossed his arms.

The gesture of rubbing her chin seemed to be seriously contemplating something.

He stretched out his hand to Elijah.

Not the posture of aiming the magic, but the posture of handing it over.

“Hey. Seriously, do you want to join us? The more you know, the more precious it is to leave your talent alone. Although we met like this now. I know, first impressions are bad. But if I talk about it well above, I’m sure you’re welcome if you’re talented….”

“Okay. I have no intention of joining the Imperial Magicians.”

“… !”

The wizard staggered back.

“Uh… how… ?”

Elijah just smiled.

“Sure.”

A warlock who visited the Temple of the Sun.

The Temple Knights, the imperial family’s troops who let go of the black magician.

The level of research and various journals found in the black magician’s residence.

And, along with Judas, the three members of the Imperial Magic Team who faced each other in person.

This is the result of a combination of several clues.

The Imperial Magicians tried their hand at black magic to increase their power.

The emperor knows this and is using it.

And, for some reason, they are targeting me.

But I wasn’t sure.

I just thought it was a high possibility.

I threw it like I knew it to see the reaction, and the opponent bit the bait.

That was all.

“I don’t really want to tell you. As if you wouldn’t answer me even if I asked why you were hanging around me.”

“… ….”

“It’s annoying, do I have to rip off the limbs?”

“… It’s a pity. If I had become an ally, it would have been really nice.”

A maniacal obsession that only pursues pure power.

This is the epitome of a wizard who dabbles in black magic.

The difference is that he is as strong as a pure mage as much as he belongs to the Imperial Wizards.

The wizard stretches out his hand.

Use the completed magic.

A bubble formed around Elijah.

Thousands of bubbles, like droplets, trap Elijah like a drop of water.

In all directions outside the bubble, needle-like ice picks appeared.

The number was in the thousands again this time.

They all aim at Elijah.

There was no angle to avoid.

The wizard heard that his companion was killed by Elijah.

The news made him happy.

By sacrificing his comrades, he will be able to further strengthen his black magic.

And I wanted to fight Elijah with that power.

Looking forward to today, I honed and polished my magic.

The magic of conversion prepared by risking one’s life.

“It must be a difficult magic for you, who can only use fire as an attack. Considering the Second Coming of the Age of Mythology, isn’t the wizard fighting with the players after all?”

“I see….”

“That talented body is a great sacrifice….”

The wizard couldn’t continue his words.

In a daze, his half-open mouth froze.

The phenomenon unfolding before my eyes was unrealistic.

Elijah just waved her hand once.

Then, the water drops created by the barrier began to burn.

It was nonsense.

It’s water on fire.

The water evaporated along with the flames, like paper burning.

It was the same with the ice pick.

It melted in an instant.

The magic that he staked his wizard life and experience on….

Elijah looked at her opponent and said plainly.

“It’s not like you can only use fire magic.”

“What….”

The wizard’s hair stood on end.

The back of his neck felt chilly.

Without time to react, the floor rose up.

A rock came out.

A large boulder hit the wizard’s chin with force.

He passed out just like that.

Elijah looked down at the fallen man.

‘Is this enough….’

There are about 10 members of the Imperial Magician Corps.

I won 4 of them myself.

Even the three of them were three to one.

I sneakily imitated the magic he just used.

It’s the first time I’ve seen it, but I can do it.

I don’t know why.

He just felt he could do it, and he actually succeeded.

Thousands of water bubbles and ice picks were created.

It was larger and denser than the one of the fainting wizard himself.

‘… Nothing special.’

Elijah made a nonchalant decision and retrieved his magic.

‘Is my power too abnormal?’

It was still difficult for her to judge her level.

One day she seemed to know, but on another day she grew up so it was difficult to measure accurately.

‘You have to measure accurately to compare with Ballack….’

Especially on days when she hugs Yuda tightly, she grows up even faster.

‘Anyway, being strong is a good thing, so it’s not bad. I wonder if it’s because of Judas.’

She thought as she looked down the canyon.

You can see the battle situation that is advantageous to the allies at a glance.

But Elijah wasn’t very interested in that fact.

She immediately catches a dot as she jumps between the cliffs.

It was Judas who rode on U.L.

‘They’re all right.’

He was roaming over the cliffs and slashing enemies.

Elijah put her hand on her chest.

Her heart, which had been beating in pain since earlier, is still there.

She remembers the beginning.

When Judas knocked himself onto her floor.

Then, when she saw Judas’ injured back.

My heart was pounding.

Her body trembled from within.

The reactions are the same, but the reasons for this are different.

That’s… What was it How is it different?

Elijah shook her head.

I have other things to do right now.

You must support your allies with magic.

A mage from the Imperial Magic Order. Then they must be imperial knights.’

After lightly figuring out her conclusion, I cast her magic.

Dozens of fiery arrows formed over the gorge.

It poured like rain, hitting only the enemy all at once.

Elijah looked down at the pouring fire.

Judas raises his head as he rides Yuel through the fire to and from the cliff.

He met her eyes.

He grinned and nodded his head.

As if to say thank you.

“… ….”

Elijah was stunned and looked at him.

After a short greeting, Judas immediately focused on the battle.

A look that concentrates on something.

Calm and sharp.

His hair was blowing in the wind as he flew around on Yuel.

The cool features are revealed as they are.

Thick eyebrows and deep eyes. Straight nose. And lips….

Elijah involuntarily moistened his lips with her tongue, swallowed her saliva, and quickly shook her head.

She brushed off unnecessary thoughts.

There is still work to be done.

Don’t waste your time.

There was no other reason than that.

For some reason, my face is getting hotter and my heart is beating faster than before, because the battle is over.

Absolutely not because of Judas.

I calm down and see the fainting wizard.

‘Hmm…. It would be difficult to run away.’

You must interrogate this mage.

You have to tell them about the imperial family and black magic.

I still don’t know how to use that clue.

However, it is bound to be useful.

Black magic is an object that is ostracized by all countries and societies.

They are madmen who want to sacrifice humans.

However, the imperial family, the pillars of the present continent, dabbled in black magic?

The moment it becomes known, there will be a huge aftermath.

I don’t mean to cause any confusion.

Just, why is the imperial family interested in him?

I’m just curious about that.

The Empire would be hostile if necessary, but more important is the annihilation of the Bebel family.

Not forgetting her priorities, Elijah laid her hand on the warlock’s body.

A wizard who knows how to teleport. Physical restraints are meaningless.’

In other words, you must prevent them from using magic.

Temporary barriers are not acceptable.

The force field that suppresses magic has many restrictions, and even Elijah is tired to maintain it.

It is better to seal the use of magic itself.

‘I’ve never heard of such a thing being possible.’

I just thought about it.

To completely burn the opponent’s magic circuit.

But I believe it is possible.

When it comes to magic, even if it’s not magic, she’s never failed.

An application that combines the magic obstruction force field learned last time and the method of destroying the force field.

Detects the wizard’s magic circuit through his hands.

The flow extends throughout the body like blood vessels.

Since I have often observed Judas’ magic circuit, it was easy to find someone else’s circuit.

Dozens of bundles of stems starting from the heart.

Burn that circuit.

Elijah glared at the heart.

Invisible to the naked eye.

However, the feeling in the hand is certain.

A magic circuit that flows through a wizard’s body.

From the extremities of the body to the heart, it is burning like a candle.

‘… Done.’

Finally, all the magic circuits were burned.

Now this wizard can’t use magic.

It’s the same situation as an ordinary person without magical powers.

Now, his talent was not new to him.

Because it’s always been like this.

Elijah checked down again.

The battle was over before I knew it, and my allies were cleaning up the situation.

The atmosphere of fierce fighting subsided and calmed down.

‘… ….’

Then, Judas and Hermis were laughing and talking.

Alone.
