166 – Revenge is also the law that the reason must be just
#One
As we go through life, we keep many secrets.
While living with a secret, it often happens that the secret you hold grows out of control.
For example, things like a secret object becoming a big player, or an unspeakable disaster approaching.
The same was the case with the Nix board.
The secret that only he knew originally grew in size.
The secret of growing in size was a disaster, and the secret that gave birth to disaster began to eat away at the world.
I needed helpers, helpers.
They needed people who could handle it calmly even if they knew the secret.
An aspiration that does not feel burdened even if it harbors a powerful power and secret that will prevent disaster.
There was a man who had all of that in front of him.
“… … I brought what I can see, and I can’t deny it. Please take a seat.”
“I see.”
“car? coffee? Which one would you like?”
“Take it with strong coffee, please.”
The chairman nodded and began brewing coffee himself.
These days, when everything is done with magic, making coffee by hand has become a romantic trend.
No matter how good and sophisticated the magic is, it has the flavor and characteristics of hand-crafted coffee.
Watching the coffee dripping down, it felt like the things I had to say or do were sorted out one by one.
When I returned home with steaming coffee, Invidea thanked me.
“thank you.”
“I am quite confident in treating guests. anyway… … Where would be a good place to start talking?”
“I have three questions prepared. I wonder what the rift is, what lies beyond it, and what Manus is doing there.”
“The rift… … It is the entrance to the world of the dead. Inside, it looks the same as here, but a completely different world unfolds.”
“It’s the same, but in a different world… … Is this the other side of the world?”
“That’s right.”
Invidea nodded quietly.
I have often heard stories about the other side of the world.
land of the dead.
Did you say that Morse, the god of death, rules?
Anyway, I thought that the other world and the real world couldn’t interfere with each other, but it doesn’t seem to be either.
Invidea organized the information one by one.
If so, why do you go inside and what happens?
“… … That’s why Manus and the club members are exploring the inside.”
“If left alone, the world will perish… … . But why didn’t you tell the outside world?”
A very natural question.
The chairman gave a very natural answer.
“The tower is a place that must be attacked. It has to be a place where there is no political intervention.”
“okay. understand. Still, sending students alone is very dangerous.”
“I know, but… … There is no way. Until now, none of the academy graduates have been able to enter that rift.”
“Hmm… … .”
Invidea nodded.
She also went to the academy for four years, but she didn’t know anything about cracks or the world behind it.
Come to think of it, it was really terrifying.
Didn’t the whole continent almost get swallowed up without knowing anything?
She remembered what she had said.
He said he would make Caesar a greater family and Manus the best wizard.
Now the family should know.
The chairman said no, but… … If the family intervened, the attack would be easier.
Invidea’s eyes shone quietly.
‘Since I was 16 years old… … Good?’
It was something she couldn’t do either.
Perhaps, if he continues to grow like this, Manus will surely become the best mage on the continent.
#2
Second day of investigation.
Twelve hours and two more hours had passed.
If it had been a labyrinth rather than a garden, it would have been a burdensome time.
The green garden reduced the visual burden and reduced the sense of fear.
If it had been a labyrinth, I would have been exhausted quickly due to psychological atrophy.
It’s been quite a while since I searched and talked about it.
They were in the process of continuing their indefinite ascent.
“How long do we have to go?”
“I don’t see any signs yet.”
“Go with the mindset of pulling out and eating as many magic stones as possible. You have to be strong.”
Everyone nodded at Guillermo’s words.
That will make you feel more comfortable.
When dealing with demons got boring, Manus opened his mouth.
“Looks like I have a little left now.”
He instinctively looked up.
There was an energy that shouldn’t be felt on the lower floors.
Dark and turbid mana.
And many negative emotions were felt intact.
Even though he must have been at the top for a long time, the malevolence he could feel was piercing his skin.
Cale, who has a good sense of humor, was also looking at the same place as Manus.
Her eyes turned to Manus.
Facing the gaze with a slightly uneasy expression, Manus calmly spoke.
“He is a criminal, not an assistant.”
“I know, but… … .”
“Looks like you’ve already given up being human.”
As a human, Chesthip possessed a fairly docile power.
Mana possessed by those who have learned magic in an orthodox manner and have steadily accumulated it.
It had mana that was absolutely pure and had no side effects.
But what about now?
A muddy aura like stagnant water because various impurities are mixed and do not flow.
There will be momentary explosive power, but fuel economy will be atrocious compared to pure power.
Manus looked at Albion once.
“Is that enough?”
[Kreureung-!]
The furry cat, no, the dragon nodded confidently.
A plan was drawn in my head.
No matter how strong he is, he is only a watchman born in the garden.
Manus was already far beyond the level of a demon coming out of the garden.
The items prepared were thick, and he had enough mana potions.
Panzer is also a pretty good guy, so even if it’s one-on-one, there shouldn’t be a problem.
After taking care of those who were anxious, he moved on.
Little by little, the light from [Dux] pointed upstairs.
Soon, you’ll be able to meet him.

Chesthip, now the new recluse daemon, made his way through the garden like a house.
It was very strange.
Despite the blurry vision and hazy mind, he could clearly perceive the geography of the garden.
and also.
The whereabouts of the intruders he wanted to tear to death also entered his mind.
There’s not much left now.
Now, you can let a painful scream burst out of that smug face!
Filled with thrills just by imagining it, he let out a long, loud roar.
[Goooooooooooooo-!]
The whole garden trembled with fear.
A buzzing space.
As if trampled on, the flowers in the garden bowed their heads.
It was an unparalleled pleasure for him, who always had to live up to someone else.
Yes, that’s it.
I will kill them with this momentum and live as a greater being.
Later, if she escapes this form and finds a human form, she will return to the real world and spread Andrea’s power.
He roared and galloped.
And finally, the long-awaited guys are in front of me.
“W-what is that?!”
“I wondered where he went, but he came as a monster.”
[Geuaaa!]
As if he had forgotten human language now, Chesthip let out a roar of joy and rage.
A wave of mana that made the whole body tingle.
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Just by simply voicing, mana was so strong that it felt like it was coming full circle.
A level slightly below the First Apostle, Mattia.
He was a pretty strong guy.
If you think about the average strength of an assistant, you’ll realize that it’s a level you shouldn’t underestimate.
However, Manus was more confident than anyone else.
Despite meeting the new hermit, he showed no signs of anxiety or nervousness.
“come. Andrea’s slave.”
[Manu… … S.]
Not the trembling of muscles, but the vibrating voice of the tree trunk was grotesque.
Those gathered hurriedly prepared for battle.
Chesthip’s glistening eyes focused only on Manus.
Hatred and intent to kill only for Manus.
Andrea, the owner of the garden, knew Chesthip’s goal.
Why did he come here and what kind of hope did he have?
So I planted a small gift.
A small twist that could make his wish come true.
[Event Boss: Chesthip – Hermit ??? appear]
[Apostle: Andrea’s barrier is activated.]
[From now on, we will fight the event boss in a one-on-one space.]
[An unusual ordeal is coming.]
It happened in an instant.
The space was distorted, and tree trunks grew.
The children next to Manus were pushed out in an instant.
At the same time, numerous demons popped out, blocking the barrier and the children.
Ahh-.
Cale’s heart sank as he watched the back of Manus disappearing.
he’s a wizard
It is said that it is overcoming that limit, but I thought it was only a story at the student level.
“Senior-!”
“Back off! Are you going to die!”
Guillermo roughly pulled Cale’s arm.
At the same time, after parrying the incoming attack, I set up a defensive posture.
Demons of countless quantities.
It was time for the wizards to be active.
“Ah, ah… … Seo, senior… … .”
Cale’s eyes widened wildly.
In her mind, she could see Manus dying, engulfed in the apostle’s flame.
extreme trauma.
The fear of losing someone again rose up from the depths of my heart.
Anais grabbed Cale’s shoulder, who was trembling with fear, and made him look into his eyes.
Cale is an ace in terms of firepower.
Now that there were no other wizards, she had to take charge of the firepower.
“Kale! Wake! Take care of it quickly and go save it!”
“ah… … .”
“Can’t you believe Manus-senpai?! If we can’t do anything here, I think what will the seniors be like when they come back!”
“… … okay. Sorry.”
Cale’s eyes returned to normal.
Anais now trusts Manus.
With him, I know that I can win confidently in any situation.
That’s why I couldn’t let my friend shake.
“Senior Manus will be fine.”
“that’s right! I believe in you too!”
Qurrr-!
Melanie said as she borrowed the power of the Salamander to blow away the demon.
Yes, it was definitely an accident.
Why can I still be calm?
Cale bit his teeth tightly, suppressing the creeping fear.
She remembered Manus’ face right before she was trapped in a tree trunk.
Manus’ expression was perfectly calm, and he was not embarrassed.
So you can trust it.
so… … Manus will come back.
