164. War Mage (3)
Shuhuahahahaa have to have
Oliver was buried in the stone pillar, extracting magic power as it was.
Surprisingly pure magic, and even more surprising was the vast amount of that magic.
Among the magical powers Oliver had dealt with so far, both quality and quantity were the highest.
As if playing with a new toy, Oliver used his extracted emotions generously to bring back some of the flames that War Wizard Kevin was controlling.
“Are you doing this?”
A flame that moves with Oliver’s gestures. It was easier to steal because it was the user’s magic.
The quantity was still insufficient, so it was only 1/10 of the total, but that alone surprised Kevin.
“·······!!”
Oliver didn’t stop there, extracting magic with one hand while controlling the flames with the other.
At Oliver’s will, the red waves met Kevin’s fiery tidal wave.
Kwahwahahaha-!!
Hufu Woo Woo Woo Woo Woo Woong Woong Woong Woong Woong Woong Woong Woong-Woong!
At the incomprehensible movement of the two flames trying to devour each other, the magic and air were rapidly burning.
One good thing I learned.
That there is nothing like fire magic to stop fire magic.
Oliver further increased the amount of magic extracted.
What he’s consuming anyway is Kevin’s magical power. If that’s the case, it’s also a good way to go into a battle of exhaustion and lose power.
After all, Oliver’s goal wasn’t to knock him down, but to hold onto his ankles and run away.
‘Moreover, Mr. Forrest told me to avoid battles with war wizards as much as possible. Beyond simply winning and losing, it can become tiring.’
“Well······.”
The extracted magic power along with Oliver’s voice was added to the flame.
Using the magical energy as nourishment, the flames fluctuated more and began to slowly erode the flames of the other side.
Slowly very sure.
It seems that Oliver’s skill with mana is slightly higher than that of a war wizard.
Maybe Kevin’s stamina gradually decreased through extraction, not knowing.
However, there was one thing that bothered me.
Although everything seemed to be going in Oliver’s favor, Kevin didn’t flinch.
At that moment, a voice echoed through the air.
A square mass of magic formed in the air. It was a communication magic ‘speaker’.
It was through magic that Kevin had conveyed his voice.
[That’s great. I hope I can counterattack like this… Ask again. Do you really want to tell me your name?]
“sorry. Can I tell you the next time we meet?”
[Do you think there will be a next one?]
“··········??”
Oliver tilted his head at the unknown question, but soon understood what he meant.
The magic power was amplified from the stone pillars that surrounded it, and it came rushing towards Oliver like a tidal wave.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Not only that, the magic that Oliver was extracting also came in much more than the original.“·······!!”
[I have seen many warlocks who steal and use magical powers like you. Among them, there were times when it was difficult… But, thinking about it, it wasn’t difficult to subdue it.]
With him, more magical power came into Oliver’s body.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Not through his hands, but through his arms, legs, chest, and back.It’s like blowing air into a balloon.
Kevin… it seemed like he was planning on overdosing Oliver’s body with magical energy.
Inefficient and ignorant, but rather the most effective method.
Oliver, half restrained by the rushing magic, had no choice but to eat whatever he gave.
[Unlike what is known to the general public, everyone has magical powers. The only difference is the sheep and the ability to control them. That means even warlocks have magic tanks to store their magic. So, here’s the question. What do you think will happen if that magic tank exceeds the limit?]
As if to show off, Kevin increased the amount of mana he was injecting into Oliver’s body.
more.
more.
more.
more.
more.
more.
······huh?
Although the stone pillar’s magical power had decreased noticeably, Oliver’s body was intact, and there was no particular discomfort.
There was something strange, and Kevin tried to stop the supply of magic power as if he had noticed it too.
Although Oliver disagreed.
Shuhwahwahwahahahaa
Oliver got out of his hands and extracted magic power through his body.
Instead of simply extracting it, he put the extracted magical power into his body, but unlike Kevin’s words, he didn’t feel anything.
Although it was obviously a huge amount of magical power, Oliver could not feel satisfied with even a single word of overload.
He didn’t even know what the hell had happened. Maybe I’ll have to study it separately later.
But it’s all behind the scenes.
Oliver decided to be faithful to the task in front of him right away, releasing the magical energy he had in his body at once.
Wow! Kwagwagwang-!!
Oliver put magical energy into the flames at once, and the flames exploded.
It was a mixture of flame magic and the magic tower student’s magic operation method who used explosion magic, and it was quite successful for a method devised on the spot.
The power was so great that the stone pillars surrounding it broke, turning the surrounding terrain upside down once.
The flames spread widely around the area as if a bucket had been shattered, the ground dug deep, the tree with its roots down, the smashed stone pillars, and the fire spreading outside.
Oliver staggered to his feet, scanning the emotions staring at him from afar.
Most of them were Kingdom soldiers, and they looked surprised at the sudden explosion.
‘It seems that Mr. Wallace and Mr. Arthur have not been caught yet… By the way, what now? It caught my attention. Shall we run away?’
In fact, you can run away now.
As before, the flames weren’t holding back, and the obstacles blocking the space with stone pillars disappeared.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Now is the time to run away. But at the same time, I wanted to fight a little more.Fighting wasn’t fun or anything like that.
He just wanted to learn more from the war wizard in front of him.
either in a fight or in a conversation. He was a man with a lot to learn.
As the wind blew amidst the black and gray smoke, the war wizard Kevin appeared through them.
He did not borrow the power of a potion even though he had exhausted considerable mana, and gathered his mana to bring the flames around him and started controlling it.
With the addition of will, magical power, and unknown power, the processed flame gains power again, and a giant snake……. No, it turned into a dragon.
“Are you a finger?”
finger.
A word that refers to the executives of the Black Hand, an organization made up only of warlocks.
Oliver shook his head.
“no. That’s not it. I’m interested, but I don’t really want to be part of an organization.”
“Hey, that’s special. If you don’t have that skill, it doesn’t make sense… But that’s not a lie!”
With Kevin’s shout, the dragon-like flames twisted and rushed towards Oliver.
The fire dragon, shining like the sun, burned the surrounding area that had already turned to ashes to annihilate it and rushed towards Oliver.
As if it were really alive, the flames radiated a heterogeneous life force from the body. Oliver knew instinctively. It is different from the previous attacks.
Oliver hurriedly drew fire under control and tried to divert Kevin’s attack.
A huge flame burns upwards, forming a barrier. but what is this
Kevin’s fire dragon didn’t even follow the flow of flame, so it devoured the flame that Oliver was controlling.
It was not at the level of simply taking control of magical powers.
That fire dragon was literally eating flames.
“Salamander. One of the fire spirits. They eat fire and feed themselves.”
It’s a spirit… Oliver had another piece of information written on the side of his head.
We met in less than a minute, but an interesting existence.
The alien vitality and presence were of this spirit.
After all, the pleasant expectation did not go astray. Did you learn something new again?
“The person I originally intended to use is not you… Please don’t die this time.”
After removing the flames that only increased the power of the Fire Dragon, Oliver stepped back and prepared black magic on the spot.
To be precise, black magic is added to magic.
Oliver couldn’t even explain what it was.
It was just to see Kevin’s Fire Dragon and imitate it by applying it on the spot.
Oliver strengthened his control by administering magical power to the remaining flames, then dismantled the black suit and converted it into emotion.
A dangerous act of giving up defense.
Still, driven by the curiosity and desire for experimentation that had taken over Oliver, he mixed emotions with the flames and activated black magic.
It wasn’t as quick as I thought it would be because I was doing it on the spot.
‘Just a little more … ah.’
Oliver thought as he looked at the jaws of the fire dragon approaching before him.
It was delayed by half a beat due to too much wind.
Just as it was chewed to death or burned to death, the Fire Dragon stopped looking at Oliver.
exuding feelings of fear.
Crackle….
It was similar to the mine guard dog and chimera I had seen in the past.
Surprisingly, not only Oliver, but also the sorcerer Kevin.
It was a series of unknown things, but Oliver expressed his gratitude for his luck and completed the black magic only half a beat later.
[Hunger]
Along with the chant, the flames mixed with the feelings of lack and greed and magic began to take concrete form.
A large, sparsely stripped head, a long and slender neck like a branch compared to a mouth with torn ears, and a bulging belly in contrast to the bare limbs.
Flame turned into a man with a hideous and bizarre appearance.
It had an ego like the fire dragon, and before Oliver could give the order, it ran towards the fire dragon, grabbed it with its bare arms, and began to bite its head with its large molar mouth.
“Kyakyakyakyyayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyybi!!”
“Kihehehehehehehehehe!”
Hwa-ryong, who struggles with pain, and Hunger, who is trying to satisfy his hunger somehow.
The two beings clashed like beasts and fought ugly.
As I watched, Hunger was not devouring the flames, but rather devouring the existence of a salamander in the flames.
It’s like trying to quench a thirst that you don’t have.
Frankly, I was curious and wanted to see more, but Oliver realized that it was time for a real run.
As time passed, the sun was about to rise, and I could feel the Kingdom Army soldiers approaching this area.
Although he had exhausted his stamina and magic, the war wizard Kevin also seemed to have the energy to fight.
slowly got tired.
Oliver took two sheets of paper from his bosom and threw a stone-javelin at the approaching Kevin.
Exactly in the direction he was running.
“This····?”
Kevin is surprised to see the paper.
Oliver didn’t care and activated the magic circle of paper using the magic stored in his body.
Two purple portals on paper.
Three zombies popped out of one of them.
“Kyahahaha!”
“Kyauk!!”
“Kyahhhh!!”
With self-destruct zombies 1, 2, and 3, they ran frantically towards the being in front of them as Oliver had set them up, grabbing them and stretching them.
Meanwhile, Oliver ran towards the second portal.
This second portal is for emergency evacuation purposes.
Oliver said as he threw himself into the portal.
“It was really nice to meet you. I hope to see you again next time.”
Upon entering the portal, Oliver activated black magic with a greeting.
At Oliver’s will, three corpses clinging to Kevin and Hunger, who was fighting the fire dragon, swelled up and exploded, and Oliver was able to escape completely through the portal.
Kwadangtangtang!
Oliver rolled over the floor as he ran away in a hurry.
A familiar ceiling caught my eye. It was the ceiling of the hostel we were staying in.
bang! bang!
Someone rushed up and knocked on the door.
“Guest. Do you happen to be? Did you hear a loud noise?”
Oliver looked up at the ceiling and answered.
“no····. There are no stars. Sorry for the noise.”
