Pacheon
Although Leon is a count, he has no vassals under his command.
What he received as a fief was not a single estate, but only a site to build a magic tower.
Instead, Leon was officially recognized as the owner of Veritas, the tower of truth, and was given the authority to have private soldiers, but the disciples of the tower had not yet been recruited.
The Iron Dragon Knights and Hwarang Wizards, to which Isaac and Tina belonged, were left in a villa on the royal capital under the escort of their mother, while the Thunder Dragon Wizards founded by Leon as their leader were non-combat wizards to which Mary, Vincent, and Angelica belonged.
In the end, Leon was able to mobilize a total of about three men.
Cindy Phalanx, Veronica and Viscount Donovan Pollach Preszel.
Until now, he had been officially working as Leon’s teacher, but with Leon becoming the master of the tower, he was able to directly reveal to the world that he was Count Leon’s vassal.
Above all, the land to be reclaimed by the conquest of the southern part of the continent was none other than Grave, the territory of the Marquess of Polark, which had been stolen by the invasion of the Demon Realm 50 years ago.
Donovan, who had spent decades on the battlefield to defeat all the demons and demons in this land and regain the land of the Count Polark family, could not miss this opportunity, so he gave up his status as an educator for a while and came to the battlefield again.
In addition, Leon had two fiancees.
The fourth princess of the Millennium Empire, Olivia Ibrium.
The second princess of the Philo Kingdom, Ailee Philost.
Especially in the case of Ailee, it would not be strange to become a general commander of the war as a corps commander in this war, but she expressed her intention to participate in this war in the form of fully supporting Leon.
In addition to placing all of her troops under Leon, Olivia Ibrium, a Yongin tribe, and her escort division declared to follow Leon, and in the end, Leon was able to serve as the division commander in this war.
The original division refers to an army of 20,000 men with 4 or more brigades of 5,000 men, and the owners of the tower were in this position.
At least, it meant that Leon could be guaranteed an equal position with the owners of other towers in this war.
“Of course, I don’t think it means anything.”
The fourth in the line of succession to the Parostel Magical Family, Levis Parostel’s nickname was the One-Man Corps.
A corps, which is a unit of 100,000 men, with five divisions of 20,000 men, means that it can be ineffective alone.
And Leon had already far surpassed Levis’ level.
If it’s not about 100,000, but at the level of an ordinary soldier, no matter how many troops are gathered, Leon’s life cannot be taken.
Even without a subordinate force, Leon possesses more than a corps, not a division.
Of course, the enemies Leon will face this time are not ordinary humans.
Demons who have been recognized for their noble status in the demon realm of the weak and powerful.
It’s okay to be vigilant
Nevertheless, Leon went to the battlefield with blood and blood.
“You said Count Leon Farostel Veritas? I’ve heard that he’s an 8-circle arch mage, but can’t you decorate the beginning of this war?”
At the request of the general commander of this war, the commander of the corps, Duke August, the people around him laughed.
The first barrier of this war.
The plain, which had been devastated by the great war 50 years ago, became a forest of monsters due to the contamination of magic.
Due to the existence of plant-type monsters that refused to walk on human foot and the beast-type monsters that inhabit there, the forest had become a taboo land where humans were not allowed to set foot.
It is impossible to know how much damage it would cause if the troops were to advance like this.
That’s why we have to deal with that forest first.
Moreover, the commanders who participated in this war were suspicious of Leon’s ability.
Leon has accumulated most of his achievements alone.
He has changed the world by quietly solving the case on his own without anyone helping.
Rumors have it that he was the 8th circle great mage, and he subjugated an unknown demon lord alone, but in reality, they were seeing Leon for the first time in this war.
At the age of 14, Leon is 165 centimeters tall and has caught up with an adult’s height, but his face still looks quite young.
As quantum magic reached the level of the 5th circle, he became more proficient in capturing magical powers, and on the surface, he looked like an ordinary young man, nothing more, nothing less.
So try it
To better understand Leon’s abilities.
Above all, if Leon made a mistake, then it was their turn to play an active role.
The political forces that were hostile to Leon would benefit from that alone, and in the case of neutrality or the royal family, if they could deal with Leon’s mistake, which was supported by the second Princess Ailee, it would be a considerable merit.
Knowing all of that, Leon shook his head.
To show off your skills.
To prove your qualifications.
Above all, it wasn’t particularly difficult for Leon.
There is no reason to refuse.
As the 100,000 troops watched with suspicion, Leon raised his magical powers.
The thing that sprouts from the head is a dragon’s horn made of the holy relic Phylostis.
At the end, the celestial ray of light formed and began to release powerful magic.
The distance to the target is a whopping 10 kilometers.
Even a magician of the 8th circle, as long as he was born as a human being, it would be difficult to hit that distance and explode his magic.
However, Leon spread his wings of thunder, rose to an appropriate height, and reached out toward the forest.
What unfolds is fusion magic, atomic burst.
However, the amount of mana mobilized for it was at a level that could not be compared with the past.
Anyone who can feel the magic at the enormous amount of magic will open their mouths and be astonished.
“It’s not human…!”
Among the wizards who participated in this war, there were those who had experienced the magic of the mage masters in other battlefields, but the magical power derived from Leon now was at a different level compared to them.
Even so, Leon didn’t just use Circle’s magic.
By dividing it into yin and yang magic and rotating it, it sucks in the surrounding magic.
The resulting phenomenon is a magical vacuum.
All the magical powers around Leon are gathered and completed as one magic.
“Atomic Burst.”
With a low voice, the sun descends on this land.
It was the moment when the being who always gave the light of grace from the sky turned into a symbol of destruction.
flash!
the forest evaporates
All forests within a five-kilometre radius of the explosion disappeared, and even trees outside that radius were uprooted and swept up into the sky by the explosion.
A dazzling pillar of light rises up, and around it, a huge band of light resembling a ray of light forms a sacred image.
Theoretically, the plasma generated by the atmosphere burned with intense thermal energy was caught in the powerful updraft of a nuclear explosion and formed a ring, but to those who do not know it, it is incomprehensible to those who do not know it, and it is felt as a shape created by some will of God.
And considering the power of the explosion, 10 kilometers is by no means a long distance.
With the aftermath of a simple explosion, 100,000 troops could all be annihilated.
Leon stretched out his hand again.
“Dice. recycling.”
[Do you understand?]
The thermal energy of a huge nuclear explosion suddenly stops.
All the entropy is controlled by the power of Dice, the spirit of order, compressed as if time has been turned backwards, and it explodes again.
But this time, the direction of the explosion follows a pillar of light and soars into the sky.
The radiation generated by the atomic burst was collected and emitted into the sky and outer space.
Until now, Leon had not used Atomic Burst except in dungeons or the Demon Realm because of environmental pollution.
No matter how much nuclear fusion produces less radioactive material than fission, it still produces radioactive material.
Therefore, in order to prevent the fallout of the radioactive material, all the materials that would fall on the ground in the first place were blown up to a space where the influence of gravity could not reach.
This leaves a black hole in the sky.
Even in broad daylight, the blue light disappeared like a deep night when the sun had set.
The reason the sea and sky is blue is because of Rayleigh scattering by water molecules or molecules in the atmosphere. The sky had turned black.
“There is a hole in the sky…!”
“Unbelievable destructive power…!”
“How the hell could a human body do this…!”
The hole began to close gradually only after the pillar of light disappeared.
As the updraft disappeared, air filled the vacuum sky again, and the sky that caused Rayleigh scattering was restored to its blue color.
The soldiers, who were afraid of the unbelievable reality that there was a hole in the sky, were finally able to rest.
And it was only then that people’s consciousness could recall the forest hit in front of the aftermath of the explosion.
But there were no more forests left.
There were no demons left.
Only a huge crater that could not be believed to be the trace of an explosion was hollowed out.
Leon, who folded the wings of thunder and descended to the ground again, walked slowly and deliberately approached the corps commander, Duke Dout August, who was watching the scene.
The knights guarding in front of it faltered and split.
“Is this enough?”
“Wow, what…?”
It was the same for him, who was not able to come to his senses at the sight so astonishing.
“I asked if this was enough to start a counterattack against the demon realm.”
At that, Dout shook his head and nodded.
“Oh, cancer. Not enough. Not enough.”
“Then start the march.”
“Ahhh. so be it.”
Seeing this, the vassals who followed the duke put their heads down with an expression of pain in their heads.
Obviously, the commander of this war would be Duke Doubt August, because his appearance was like Leon giving orders to the Duke.
Considering her engagement with Princess Ailee, it wouldn’t be a big deal, but that’s why she became even more obedient to Leon’s instructions.
As a commander of the battlefield, his prestige is falling.
Above all, considering the authority of Leon, who showed an unprecedented and amazing performance, it made my head hurt at the thought that I would not be able to treat Leon recklessly in the future.
Seeing them like that, Cindy smiled and approached them.
“You are mean.”
“what.”
“You only blow up a forest, but you don’t even have to use that much magic. Just drop a Hellfire in moderation and watch the forest burn.”
“That’s taking too long.”
“It’s not that, but did you not preemptively suppress Leon-sama’s abilities in the future?”
At Cindy’s harsh words, Leon kept her mouth shut.
There are plenty of magic that is simply powerful.
Right now, even with Hellfire, an 8-circle flame magic, it is possible to burn an entire forest as large as that.
However, no matter how Hellfire was, it would not have been able to achieve the feat of piercing a hole in the sky with any magic that has ever existed.
Aside from its identity, the incomprehensible spectacle of the deep blue sky piercing through black must have left an impression beyond mere power to all who watched it.
It will be an opportunity to let the world know that Leon has a state different from any other wizard so far.
And Leon’s tactics worked well, and a nickname began to circulate among the soldiers.
The Archmage of Pacheon.
It was the appearance of a wizard who broke the sky.
