149 – An island made of storms
”Wow! This is also great. What was that, Yueun’s uncle’s magic! I learned that once again… Again, once again!”
Seeing the small icy comet blooming on her hand, Erna said with a satisfied face.
-Whoops. If it were you, you might really be able to defeat the Demon God. Ruler. Now that’s all I’ve prepared.
“No. You also need to give me a clue about Blue Jet.”
-Ah. That’s what remains however…
Flash!
A half-sized map appeared in my hand. This half, half of the map I received last time.
-I don’t know where the other half is.
“Has Neri eaten?”
“What’s up?”
As I took out my half map from my inventory, the two merged naturally.
-You managed to get it. He’s a great guy.
[Superlative Electric Magic – You have acquired the map where the Blue Jet magic book is located.]
“Oh! It’s put together. Where did you get the halves from?”
“It must have come from working as an SS.”
“Ooh…”
But looking at it now, this map is pointing towards the sky. Does this worldview even have islands in the sky? I think it was mentioned in tmi.
I told Erna about it just in case. Then she replied with a smile as if she knew something about her.
-Yes. Is that really The map points to the sky… When you get the map, it’s the same as the writing on the tombstone next to it.
“Tombstone? What was it written on?”
-They said it’s an island made up of storms, where lightning strikes all day long.
This really is an island worthy of the highest level of electric magic.
“Sounds like fun! Let’s go.”
“You’ll have to be especially careful. With two water mages and a water spirit, you’ll be particularly vulnerable to lightning.”
“Huh? You guys want to follow along too? Wouldn’t it be difficult?”
I played half battles this morning and wandered around the cave during the day looking for Erna’s legacy. But none of them show any signs of hardship. Rather, he spoke in a louder voice.
“What a disappointing thing to say. The two of us will be together forever. And if we don’t go, we’ll be left alone with Rinne-nim, so So-hee has to keep in check.”
“When did I say that…”
Sohee looks at me and approaches me.
“I’m sorry if you still feel uncomfortable going with me, but we’ll go back to the academy.”
“It’s nice to be uncomfortable.”
They will play a big part in the final match, but the more experience you accumulate, the better.
“…Yes. Thank you.”
“Let’s go. Neriya! Our goal this time is Storm Island in the sky.”
“Kyuwoo!”
Erna looked at the two and smiled softly.
-They are powerful wizards. I’m so glad you took my legacy. Especially wizards who have realized my realm. You realized that at a much younger age than me. You will definitely become a better wizard than me.
“Oh, no! I’m surpassing Erna-sama. It’s unreasonable!”
How much do you respect Erna? It was So-hee who was waving her hands with her face flushed red.
– And Ercana. Your mission is now over. Live as you want without being tied down to me.
-Is that really okay? I still owe you all…
– Enough.
-Then actually, I want to go on another adventure with these wizards.
-Yes, come back in good health. It’s almost time to sleep. Please take good care of Ercana. And…
Erna’s thoughts are looking at me.
-Be sure to defeat the demon.
“Of course.”
They disappeared with a happy expression. Ercana put on a sad expression for a moment, then she looked at me with her calm face.
-Can you take me too? On Storm Island.
“Everyone talks as if they are going to play, but it must be very dangerous.”
-The sea of determination. And it will definitely help.
Yes, it looks like chubby fried shrimp, so it’s an emergency food in case of emergency… Of course, I’m kidding. Since it is an ancient spirit that followed Erna, it will help Sohee realize the state of enlightenment of all trees and ice.
A portal appeared where Erna’s thoughts disappeared. When I entered there, I returned to the Antarctic ice sheet where I first arrived.
“Guys. Look!”
Harin points to the sky with his finger. Above the sky, a multicolored aurora was emitting light as if to welcome us.
“Keuh~ Isn’t it a superb view?”
“Maybe it’s Erna-sama’s last present.”
-I’m sure it will.
I said while appreciating the aurora to catch my breath.
“Shall we go soon?”
“Yes!”
Rinne turned into a giant wind dragon on the ice. She wondered if the ice sheet would break, but she landed softly using magic.
-I had a vague feeling that he wasn’t human, but I didn’t know he was a dragon. Dragons are known for being ferocious and looking down on humans. But I never thought I would hold hands with such a dragon.
“Well, even among wizards, there are good wizards and bad wizards, so maybe the purpose is the same. Don’t get caught up in stereotypes too much.”
-Is Hyundai unique? Or are you special A human being friendly with a dragon…
“Ido must be special~. More than that, it’s a complete emergency! They even held hands with Linne!”
“I didn’t mean it that way…!”
Ercana said she was lost in thought for a moment and looked at me.
-Come to think of it, I felt a strange attraction from you. The feeling of wanting to follow something.
Ah. That’s right. I forgot about it for a while, but there was a skill called leadership. Maybe that’s the effect.
After riding on the back of a large wind dragon, we headed straight into the sky.
“It’s going to be difficult to breathe because of the air pressure. You learned breathing magic by air pressure in the advanced magic theory class, right? You can use that.”
“Really? You learn that at our academy? That’s great. Delaon Academy!”
“…”
That’s how I cast breathing magic on everyone. Of course, I did not bet on the wind dragon and the two spirits who live without breathing.
– Mr. Lee Do. Is this the right direction?
“Wait. It’s hard to explain in words. Can I borrow your hair?”
-Please be gentle…
“Emergency Emergency!
“Aren’t those emergency lights going off too often?”
Borrowing a head was meant to literally put map information into one’s head. Of course, it’s not physically shove. It’s magic.
– Great. I’m going to bend the direction a bit. Please hold on tight Ido! It’s okay there!
“Ah. Sorry.”
Anyway, everyone held on tightly, but it seems that only me reacted greatly? Is it because of the mood?
***
How many times have you traversed the sky like that? Dark clouds covered with lightning. Finally, we arrived at Storm Island, which appeared on the map.
“It’s so big. I thought Linne’s dragon figure was also really big. It’s more than that.”
“An island as large as this has not managed to be discovered until now.”
“Sure!”
At this point, even without information, I can feel it.
[Eye of the sky has been activated.]
As expected, it wasn’t just dark clouds. Instruments were mixed here and there, so it seemed really difficult to just enter.
What’s more, if it was water magic, it would have been eliminated in an instant using its authority, but it was shaped like a cloud and was made of electric magic.
“Hmm…”
While I was lost in thought for a moment, Nemesis spoke in an unbearable tone.
-You can just eat something like cotton candy.
Then Harin agreed with her words.
“Oh! I thought so too…”
-Whoops. After all, you’re a great wizard. You know something.
“Uh heh heh.”
If it was really similar to cotton candy, I’d just cut it off and get rid of it, but this looks a bit different. It reminds me of the old black dust wolves.
“I have to cut it after it hardens.”
– You know the taste well.
“That’s right! Eating frozen cotton candy is also delicious.”
Why are the two of them so close together? Anyway, it’s a bit early, but I’ll give it a try. The ultimate ice magic you just learned, Ice Comet Skadi.
I drew my two swords and pointed at the great storm island. So-hee admired the mana that spewed out at the same time.
“It’s much more intense than the small comet earlier.”
“Po, storm island won’t break?”
It’s a place where the highest level of magic is hidden, but it can’t be broken with something like this.
Gugugung…
A huge storm island, on which a large icy comet appears and begins to fall.
Kwaaang!
With a loud roar, ice shards bounce in all directions. I never thought the day would come when I would drop an ice comet.
The smoke clears. The dark clouds made of electricity and musical instruments froze to make them easy to cut.
“I-I just saw the end of the world…”
“hahahaha. I’ll be there first. Come slowly.”
After creating an updraft and making a great leap, wrap the two swords with Nemesis Fury to make it easier to cut through the ice.
– Know Goddess with glory. I don’t lend my power to anyone.
-Encased in darkness! It’s strange that it seems to have fallen. But I am the Goddess of Light, so I will never fall.
“That’s nice.”
Quaang!!
The frozen ground collides with two swords. Soon after, a crack formed and the huge ice shattered in an instant.
– It’s great. It’s delicious. It’s so delicious!
-Mr. Nemesis… I’ve never seen you so excited. But wait!
As the clouds dissipated, the shape of Storm Island became more distinct. A large temple, but it looked very ominous, as if cursed.
-Haa… I couldn’t believe it, but the hero.
“Yes?”
The voice of the goddess shakes. I think I found something.
-It looks like my apprentice, Riel, is in there. While standing on the instrument!
