The Evil God Beyond the Smartphone chapter 98

fate (6)

A lab full of static.

Elbon’s eyes, filled with complex emotions, looked at the monsters in front of him.

It’s been a few minutes since they came to Elbon’s lab.

Although Elborn was known for being impatient from the beginning, he was particularly impatient when it came to problems related to his disciples.

After discovering the brooch that had fallen on the table, the situation was even more outrageous than before.

Beside Elbon, Sigor was watching Elborn like that with a worried face.

‘·······I don’t know what to say.’

The opponent who claimed to be a disciple of the evil god continued to appear forcibly toward Elbon from the beginning.

Utenia High Lost.

It was a fanatic of the denomination that worshiped the evil gods who kidnapped Elbon’s disciple.

In the first place, if they had common sense, there was no reason to use such hard means like this.

They were crazy people who served evil gods, so they were doing this against the Master of the Tower.

These are the guys who walked into the horse tower, which could be said to be the middle of the enemy line, with their own feet.

It was not an action that he could choose if he did not have confidence in his own abilities.

If it goes on like this, there is a high possibility that Elborn will also be swayed by their intentions.

‘There would be no room for compromise with those who serve evil spirits as it is…’

Nevertheless, Elbon could not fight back strongly against the monsters in front of him.

It was because he was worried about the safety of the disciple who was being held captive by them.

Enia was the greatest masterpiece that Elborn was nurturing with great care.

Losing such Enia here was an irreparable loss to Elbon.

It was Sigor, whom he had brought here for the purpose of escorting, to take the place of the silent Elbon.

“Did you say euthania? No matter how out of morals it may be, there is a degree to being rude.”

“Are you rude? Still, it was a matter of a precious disciple.”

The gray eyes covered in the hood looked at Sigor.

It is an arrogant and overbearing attitude.

It was the eyes that completely looked down on the wizards living in the tower.

Of course, he must have come here because he had the confidence to get out safely.

However, this was the central horse tower of the empire.

It was the totality of magic that gathered all the geniuses of the Empire and the essence of magic.

There would be no one who didn’t know what it meant to fight in the realm of a prepared wizard.

No wizard in his realm will tolerate insults.

Upon hearing the story of Yutenia, Sigor responded with a harsh attitude towards the invaders.

“You don’t seem to understand where you are standing. This is the tower.”

“Of course I know.”

“It’s a story that the defensive magic circle installed in the horse tower can crush you in a matter of seconds if you do stupid tricks.”

Sigor looked at the intruders of the tower with an angry gaze and warned.

As far as Elbon, the wise man of the Tower, knew, the words that came out of Sigor’s mouth were not empty words.

He was the master of ice magic.

As one of the most powerful battle wizards in the system, he was a person who had access to the defense magic installed in the tower.

He has mastered numerous battle magics, and is a master of battle who has overcome countless battlefields.

In addition, Sigor was given priority in all defense magic of the tower now.

The opponent was showing an arrogant attitude in front of him like that.

It was only natural that Sigor could not tolerate the attitude of the assailants toward Elbon.

“You seem to be quite confident in the magic of the tower, don’t you?”

“okay. I wouldn’t have said this without myself. This is the culmination of many magics that the Empire has been studying.”

“But that wouldn’t save a disciple who would suffer in the future.”

“You are making a fussy trick. I can kill you right here right now…”

“We’re not just here to make a deal, so it’s hard to free the hostages if you don’t listen to them.”

Contrary to the mellow voice, it is the content that stands out.

Sigor’s face frowned at the sight of Yutenia making threats to Enia.

Elbon, who was sitting in his seat, was in deep contemplation when he heard the story.

Whoo-.

Elbon’s sigh echoed through the laboratory.

In order to save Enia, they had to first find out what they wanted.

Elborn with a complicated face opened her mouth to Euthenia.

“What do you want?”

“I want you to follow us quietly. Of course, I have to bring all the equipment for the lab.”

“Where are you going with me?”

“It’s a secret.”

As before, Yutenia, who brought her finger to her mouth, answered.

Her proposal was simple.

Following Enia, Elborn is also going to be kidnapped from this place.

Even with the whole Elbon research data.

The only difference from when I took Enia was the promise to release Enia on behalf of Elborn.

Talking about kidnapping the wise man of the tower in the presence of the master.

For Matop, even if it meant losing Enia, it was an unacceptable story.

Even if Elbon himself accepted it, it was a proposal that Sigor would not let go.

As if to prove Elborn’s expectations, Sigor spoke in a more intense voice.

“Such an offer is unacceptable!”

“…Siggor.”

“Did you think that you could exchange only one disciple and the Master of the Tower!”

Siggor rejected Utenia’s offer with a firm voice.

Seeing Sigor like that, Elbon touched his forehead.

The story of the ideal that Sigor had rejected ended here.

It was also an unreasonable proposal that could not be easily accepted by Elbon from the beginning.

As long as he couldn’t accept his opponent’s offer, Elbon had to use money to convince his opponent.

At the moment when Elbon was about to bring up the story of Enia’s ransom in the conversation that was ruined in an instant.

A cold voice came out of Yutenia’s mouth.

“It doesn’t matter if you refuse.”

“what······?”

“Because from the beginning, I was going to take you even by force.”

Having said that, Yutenia flapped her cloak and pulled out her right hand.

A thick book was in Yutenia’s hand, which had come out of the cloak.

Armed clashes with each other are no longer unavoidable.

The moment he sensed that fact, Elbon pulled out the staff that was hanging from his waist.

Sigor, who was behind Elbon, also raised his hand by moving his hand.

Yutenia, who looked at the two of them, complained with a regretful face.

“I asked to take him quietly, but I think it’s going to be a little difficult.”

“The seed of the evil god is revealing its true nature! It’s an order! I will issue an emergency annihilation order!”

From the mouth of Sigor facing Yutenia, orders for the defense magic circle of the tower were flowing out.

Elbon was also a familiar command through the rumors.

Emergency annihilation order. It was a means that only wizards who had the right to give priority to the tower could use it.

From the moment the activation is declared, a pulse that causes magical interference in the entire tower is emitted, and everyone except the magician of the tower is restricted in the use of magic.

It gives a fatal demerit to unauthorized intruders.

Since the use of the emergency annihilation order interferes with Magic Tower’s magic research, it was an order that was not activated unless it was an emergency.

At the same time as Sigor’s voice resounded, the artificial spirit that manages the tower responded to Sigor’s voice.

– “First, confirm the activation of the emergency annihilation order by the commander. We will implement the emergency annihilation order according to the rules.”

– “Check for unauthorized intruders.”

– “The magic field—— Chijik.”

– “Failed— Cracked— Cracked—— Urgent… Annihilation—— An error occurred.”

– “Failed to fulfill the emergency annihilation order.”

– “It takes 5 minutes and 48 seconds to recover from a fatal error.”

However, returning from the artificial spirit of the tower was not a normal answer.

Sigor’s complexion darkened sharply at the voice of the artificial spirit telling him of an error.

The tower’s defense system is not working properly.

The magic that gave the magicians belonging to the tower an absolute advantage was neutralized for unknown reasons.

It was a situation that could not be compared to that of Enia being kidnapped.

Yutenia, who they were facing, turned the pages and spoke in a relaxed voice.

“If you focus, you can stop for about five minutes.”

“no way······.”

“It was fun magic. Unfortunately, the effect will be difficult to see with the naked eye.”

“What the hell is that, Kuh-huh…!”

Whoops!

As soon as Yutenia’s voice ended, a scream erupted from Sigor’s mouth.

Elbon immediately turned his head to look at Sigor.

A huge awl of shadows pierced through the abdomen of Sigor, who was about to use magic.

Shigor was unable to properly respond to the sudden attack from behind.

Sigor’s body, which was bleeding and glaring at Euthenia, moved with a chill in her body.

Shigor, who moved to the other side of the laboratory in an instant, had a frozen red piece of ice on his stomach.

“Siggor!”

“I’m, uh… it’s okay! However, the tower’s defense system seems to have been temporarily disabled…”

“Know! Let me join the battle!”

Elborn cried out in an urgent voice to Sigor, who had used magic to stop the wounds from bleeding.

Although it was said that he was an Elborn far from the War Mage, the place he was standing now was his laboratory.

No matter how Elbon was, he was not weak enough to do anything in his realm.

A prepared wizard is powerful enough to be different from a wizard who is not.

Even if it was Elborn walking the path of alchemy, it was the same.

Whirick.

Elbon, holding the staff, got up and stared at the men.

The one who stood in the way of such Elbon was the magician who neutralized the tower’s defense system, Yutenia.

“Looks like you want to fight. Aren’t you worried about your disciple?”

“Ugh…”

“Even if we fight properly, it will be over soon.”

“Ice Spear!”

Sigor, who had transferred to the vicinity of Elbon, used magic towards Utenia.

ice spear. It was a middle rank ice magic.

A spear of ice that had condensed in an instant in the air shot out, aiming for Utenia.

Aww!

The spears rushing in at high speed were blocked by the wall of shadows that rose from below Utenia.

The spear of ice that collided with the shadow was shattered, and fragments of ice were scattered in all directions.

The eutenia that Sigor was aiming for was unharmed and unharmed.

“Is this magic dealing with ice?”

“Ice Storm!”

However, Sigor’s magic was not yet over.

The scattered and scattered ice fragments were swept away by the wind and began to move.

A storm of ice created in an instant swept through Utenia, pressing it down.

The sharp shards of ice were spinning fiercely with a chill the size of a fleshy ale.

At the threat of an ice storm slowly tightening, Yutenia raised the shadow even more.

A shadow that was thicker than before quickly wrapped around Yutenia’s body.

After seeing the movement of the shadows surrounding her, Elbon pointed her staff at Euthenia.

“Elemental Burst!”

Aww!

Finally, Elbon’s elemental explosion magic was mixed and the magic chain towards Utenia came to an end.

A thick layer of dust rose in the laboratory, and household appliances swept away by the explosion flew in all directions.

ice spear. ice storm. Elemental Burst.

It is the destructive power created by the succession of three magics.

It was clear that the current attack could not be completely blocked with the appearance of Yutenia, who was urgently raising the shadows.

Even if he was lucky enough to block it, he would have suffered a fatal injury.

Elborn looked at Euthenia beyond the smoke and burst out in a voice full of anticipation.

“I don’t know if I did it.”

“·······Elbon-sama.”

“Siggor! Just in case you don’t know, you should investigate the other guy…!”

“Avoid.”

Hearing Sigor’s voice, Elbon couldn’t hide his doubts.

It was Shigor who suddenly told Elbon to flee.

avoid it What do you mean to avoid?

Immediately after Elbon, full of doubts, looked back at the scarred Sigor.

A great surprise occurred on the walls of the laboratory.

“Uh-huh…?”

“Elbon! Evacuate quickly——!”

In the landscape of the smoke being lifted, Elborn sensed a great anomaly.

oddity.

It was a sight that can only be expressed in words like that.

Behind Utenia, standing behind the disappearing smoke.

It was because the walls of the tower, which could never be destroyed, were falling down there.

Kugugugugugugu–!

Behind the collapsed wall was the giant’s hand.

It was the appearance of a gigantic giant rising from the shadow of the tower over Yutenia’s body.

The giant born from the shadow of the tower created by the sunlight was as large as the size of the shadow.

“·················ogue.”

If God were to come down directly to the earth, would he be moving such a huge body?

A thought flashed through Elborn’s mind as he looked at the shadow giant.

Shortly after Elborn witnessed the appearance of a gigantic giant.

The giant’s hand made of shadows moved toward the tower.

Contrary to its massive size, it was a quick movement.

The swift-moving touch of the shadow came through the Euthenia that was blocking the path.

The wind blew past Elbon’s cheek, who was facing the jet-black giant.

“L… Nim… Damage… Hap….”

“This······.”

A weak wind brushing your cheeks.

Immediately after that, a strong wind rushed in.

Amid the swaying air current, the voice that had reached Elbon’s ear spread faintly.

Elbon’s body was thrown into a corner with a violent backflow of air.

Aww! Aww!

The sudden gust of wind shook Elbon’s vision, who was looking ahead, in all directions.

In a shaky sight, Elborn had to watch the materials in the lab fluttering wildly.

The equipment in the lab, which was not fixed, was caught in the air and floating in the air.

“Elbon!”

“Kuhhh!”

Elborn’s body, which had been thrown away, was locked in the wall.

kuung.

Blood gushed out of Elbon’s mouth as he hit the wall.

The vision returned in an instant lost its balance and spread for a while.

It looked like blood had splattered on his head from what had just happened.

Elbon, who gripped his head, moaning in pain, tried to regain consciousness.

He moved his gaze to find the figure of Sigor somewhere in the laboratory.

“Elbon! Are you all right!”

“…Siggor.”

“Elbon! Calm down!”

A few steps from where Elbon bounced off.

There, he could see the back of Sigor, scattering the chill and trying to face the giant.

Despite the wounds on his stomach, Sigor was holding back the giant’s movements by forcibly drawing out magic.

Again, he looked like a master of combat magic.

But it didn’t look like it could last forever.

It was because there was an overwhelming difference in size between the giant and Sigor.

‘The evil spirit created a monster.’

The girl in front of Elbon was a monster.

One individual neutralizes the magic tower’s defense magic for a short time, and at the same time, they are pushing the magic tower’s master-class wizard at the same time.

Natural talent and endless magic met to create an out-of-standard monster.

He thought he was simply a fanatic who served evil gods, but Elbon’s judgment was a huge mistake.

Elborn knew what these beings were called.

Apostle.

She was an apostle of a god sent down by an evil spirit.

A dangerous existence targeting the ground was a sword forged to destroy the human state.

“Why… why are you doing this?!”

Seeing Elbon vomiting blood, Sigor shouted to Euthenia.

The chill of Sigor, which was blocking the fist of the giant, was gradually losing its power.

Sigor’s magical powers against Yutenia were slowly depleting.

Since the tower’s defense system had been neutralized, it was an unbalanced battle from the beginning.

The opponent is an agent of an evil spirit with infinite magical power.

And Sigor was a sorcerer who could not break free from human limitations.

Still, Sigor did not back down and constantly resisted to stop the giant.

To Sigor’s scream echoing in the laboratory, Yutenia responded by stroking her fluttering hair.

“Because that is the will of the Great One. Weren’t you the ones who turned down the offer to take me quietly?”

“stop! If we get hit directly by this kind of attack once more, Elbon-sama will die!”

“Is there any need to show such mercy toward unbelievers? I refused because I didn’t need the hard-earned hostages.”

“Even if you want Elbon-sama, you wouldn’t want to kill me and take me away!”

Sigor’s idea was reasonable from a common sense point of view.

However, the opponent was not something that could be judged by human common sense.

Upon hearing Sigor’s story, Yutenia shook her head.

The response was that there was no need to worry at all.

Yutenia shook her head and declared toward Sigor in a cold voice.

“It doesn’t matter if I kill you and take you. It’s okay if you turn it into an undead anyway.”

“·················ogue.”

“Aren’t broken equipment a little wasteful?”

“Stop right now.”

“But it wouldn’t be bad to have a forceful demonstration like this. Unbelievers in the Empire will know his greatness.”

Elbon’s gaze looked at the giant beyond the collapsed wall.

A pupil full of pitch black looked down at Elbon and Sigor.

The giant of the shadows began to move the fist on the other side, which was not outstretched.

With Sigor’s magical powers approaching the limit, he would not be able to block the next attack.

The moment of doom was coming.

Sensing the end of his life, Elbon felt a sense of disappointment and closed his eyes tightly.

‘······ Reminds me of the stupid conversation we had at the bar.’

In the midst of the impending doom, Elbon remembered the conversation with the priest.

That day, the priest he met at the bar talked about his fate.

It is said that it is ultimately the fate that the six gods guide that determines the rise and fall of human beings.

Even thinking about it now, it’s a really funny story.

If a person’s destiny is determined, human effort was ultimately worthless.

Isn’t it just a story that follows the script of a play that has a set beginning and an end?

Such a life would have no value other than divine entertainment.

‘In all likelihood, it’s not the god of abundance that comes to you, but the evil god. Really…’

If the future that God determines is destiny, what should we call the ruin that the evil spirit determines?

Is it a curse? Or is it retribution?

Or is it just a mischievous prank of the transcendent towards the little things?

If not even that, then

Truly—— damn fate.
