73 – I’m really tired
Where did it go wrong?
Xiaofang pondered over his memories. Since when did your life turn upside down?
When my martial arts talent didn’t meet my father’s expectations?
Was it wrong to escape the villa on its own?
Or was it that you hit the magic tower that entered right after?
Maybe it was my fault for taking on the role of the villain boss to live well.
But at the same time, I also had this thought.
Maybe there was nothing wrong in the first place. Maybe the past doesn’t really matter.
See you soon.
Isn’t that enough? Aren’t you happy?
I am happy.
Yes, now I was happy.
It was a problem that could be solved by immediately dealing with the demons blocking the way.
Yes, that was all it took.
Xiao Fang smiled and shook his head. He made a sword in his hand and held it. The sword forged with magical power was not rugged. He was strong, sharp, and felt like a close friend even though he hadn’t seen them in a long time.
“Good.”
Why couldn’t it have been like this before?
In that case, I wouldn’t have to come back this far.
Xiao Fang raised his head and sword while feeling regret.
I stared at the front.
From noble mtl dot com
The whole world is stained red with blood.
The strongest mage of the current generation who overwrites the territory he has seized with his magic power.
The blood lion was approaching, spewing death.
“You’re behind.”
Even after seeing that demon for the first time in a while, his mouth was rough.
“…… hahahaha.”
Xiaofang felt his heart pounding.
I wasn’t overwhelmed to live. I was just feeling the satisfaction and joy that the long-awaited meeting had come to pass.
She smiled and looked at her own enemy with her cold gaze.
“You are.”
You will die.
***
You must not show your superpowers to the general public.
In order to escape from that absolute law, the person with special abilities opened a barrier.
Even when he was moving, he hid himself by spreading a simple barrier.
However, it was not something that could be completely hidden.
It only became transparent, but left traces like smells and footprints.
I couldn’t even open the door. It would be like being alone and opening up.
A very good magician could escape from such restrictions, but there was no separate way for the warriors who were at the level of a simple barrier.
There was no way to deal with the means of temporarily incapacitating the simple barriers that had been put on their bodies.
Despite the disadvantages of having to be discovered in the presence of ordinary people and being cumbersome to activate, the method that was used intermittently from before was embarrassing.
Therefore, it was not so strange that the warriors paid attention to how to deal with it.
Because it was taken for granted that a warrior would attack and a wizard to block it, the biggest concern was how well the attack could be carried out.
“Huh? Something is strange.”
“What?”
“No, the sky over there… ….”
It is very difficult for even a high-ranking mage to clear a barrier in a wide area, rather than neutralizing a simple barrier.
It was even more so if it wasn’t even breaking, but if it was naturally entering the opponent’s area.
That’s why he must have been careless.
I never dared to imagine that thousands of wizards would appear in my front yard.
That too by teleporting.
In an instant,
Really—!
The sky split.
[ Mass Teleport ]
The sky split in half just like that spewed out thousands of wizards to the earth.
Some of them flew all over Musingung Palace like a meteor shower, but most of them landed in front of the gateway.
Inside the palace, even the overlapping barriers were not completely penetrated.
But it was successful enough, and it was intimidating.
A wizard of the right level that only one person can serve as a siege weapon.
At least thousands of such elite personnel. A large army that could possibly exceed ten thousand appeared at the gate in the blink of an eye.
Behind the gate was the inside of Musingung, the sacred place of warriors and the main base.
“…… Gee, crazy!”
The sentry opened his eyes wide and tried to press the warning light right away.
As if that was the only way to survive, he threw his whole body and hit it.
But, unfortunately, it was not enough.
“…… Gagging!”
Musin Palace has never allowed an intrusion.
It was possible because the boundary was clearly established over a wide radius in the midfield.
And now that the enemy has appeared in my front yard, I have finally revealed my vulnerability.
Since the entry and exit of wizards was strictly regulated from the beginning, the gate’s castle walls were not devised with high deterrence measures, except for the barrier.
There was a high castle wall that could not be crossed by a human body and a surveillance system of enemy personnel, but the opponent was not good.
While the owner of the pagoda has disappeared and Daewonro is concentrating on the internal administration of the pagoda——
The blood messenger Yuhanna, one of the strongest among wizards, and Marcus the black dragon.
Marcus, the leader of the expedition, jumped over the wall taller than a giant in an instant.
No means of magical interference could stop the movement for a moment.
The captain of the wizard who climbed the castle like that killed the sentinel in a matter of days.
Suddenly—
All humans were cut down with a single sword.
One second after entering Musingung.
It was at this point that all the personnel at the gate collapsed without even pressing the warning light.
After that, Marcus refrained from vandalism and opened the gate normally.
It would have been much faster if it had broken the floor in a vertical line and descended, but it was to prevent the leakage of magic power and noise as much as possible.
The high-ranking ones have already noticed, but I’ll try to respond even if it’s too late.
In the next few tens of seconds, a baptism of magic was scheduled to sweep the inside of the palace.
“Okay, let’s wipe it all out.”
Excitement, ecstasy, tension, calm.
In this way, the magician corps stepped into the uninhabited stronghold with all sorts of emotions.
I moved forward while making a bomb called ‘magic’ one by one in my hand.
Similarly, Expedition leader Markus, who was about to attack the leadership, suddenly remembered what he had been asked to do and looked around all of them.
‘Ah, Lee Jin-woo, Lee Jin-woo, Lee Jin-woo.’
The Yuhanna asked her to take good care of her own childhood friend.
This is a request from the noble expedition guide.
For some reason, it was a normal request, and it was possible to get me out of the battlefield, so I gladly accepted it.
I can’t help it if we get to the point of being killed together, but I thought I’d be a little concerned.
Yeah, but…….
‘…… Umm, why isn’t there?’
It’s before we even start properly, so why isn’t it already there?
Marcus remembered a small shower of meteors that had suddenly jumped out of the sky.
Ah, no way……
For some foreboding, Marcus sighed with a grim expression on his face.
I’m tired.
***
“What the f*ck.”
The plan completely went awry.
The army of the expedition leader and magicians who were said to be so strong were nowhere to be seen.
Even my guide, Hyeyoung Shin, wasn’t there.
All I can see are the long walls and burning torches hanging everywhere.
It seemed that they entered the interior first.
…… I waited for a while, and I thought that if I waited for a while, they would explode and come, but when I thought about it, I heard that the inside of the palace was filthy and spacious.
It would be quicker to catch them before reinforcements arrive, devastating them.
Then there were two methods I could choose right away.
Hidden in a secluded place and endured.
Or they charged like a dog because it was dark under the lamp and hid in the depths.
I had absolutely no confidence to be invincible, so I had to hide somewhere.
Kwagagagagang——!!
There was a flash and a roar in the distance. The offensive must have begun in earnest. Yeah, it’s nice to have a big room like that…….
“I’m tired.”
I’m tired.
It was so far away that I didn’t even know if it was an explosion or what kind of magic was unfolding.
It was the moment when it became clear that the distance between me and my ally was far away.
Weiying—! Warning bells rang out from all sides. It was the beginning of the opponent’s full-fledged response.
‘I’ll shoot you 10 minutes late… ….’
While thinking such a nonsensical thought, I started running stealthily.
If I was discovered outside the building, it was clear that I would be eaten up by the kids who came like cockroaches, so I had to hide somewhere.
Moving silently, I quickly searched for a building I could enter.
[ Attribute ‘Escaped Ninja’ assists movement. ]
At this moment, the fact that I am a fugitive ninja made me so proud and grateful.
If it hadn’t been for the knack for moving around in the dark, he would have been caught long ago.
The torches burning everywhere were gradually tightening the surroundings.
Just as I was gripped by the idea that I might be really f*cked up, a building came into view.
Unlike other buildings where the interior is bright and people can be seen moving quickly, it is dark and there is no noticeable flow of magical energy.
In addition, the building looks subtly old and shabby, and its large size makes it perfect for hiding.
‘Perfect.’
I jumped into the refuge that approached like that fate, with admiration.
Even while I was running so quickly, I suddenly saw the letters on the signboard.
[ Long-awaited 大蟒 ]
It was the palace of the Imoogi.
