: what happened that night (5)
For Gav, "class 7" was a taboo word.
If anyone mentions him, Gav kills him as horribly as possible.
Even a warlock belonging to the school didn't care.
The fact that he did not reach the 7th class was his repulsion.
Jamie got it right.
Alas !"
Bena looked at Jamie with a puzzled expression.
He was smiling leisurely at what was so fun.
Gav is a maniac. Haven't you just seen it? To make himself like this, he had been doing terrible things for 10 years without any hesitation.
If you provoke him wrong, you might end up doing something wrong.
Feeling Bena's gaze like that, Jamie said as she glanced at her.
"I'm looking good."
I didn't ask what to see.
Because the black mana flowing from Jamie's body was answering him.
'Would you like to see your skills first?'
The taunt was done properly, but the opponent was a Class 6 Master Warlock.
Besides, he must have accumulated a lot of experience while practicing black magic for many years.
Apart from not reaching the 7th class, it must be a strong force that cannot be compared with Salom.
Jamie lined up Gav and commanded the Sun Undead soldiers.
"Kill it."
The undead soldiers moved with Azad and Ryza in the lead.
Gav showed his anger to the fullest as he watched the undead flocking to him.
"Let me give you a very terrible despair!"
Along with the guilt of despising him, he will clearly reveal which affiliation he belongs to. And today, you will receive all compensation for the damage.
To do that, you must win the battle against the gnome.
Gav didn't think it was that difficult.
'Curse and poison do not work on the undead.'
The most deadly power is Divinity, but it is impossible for a Warlock to manipulate Divinity.
However, the undead had one more fatal attribute besides divine.
Gav loaded the mana into the cobra staff and hit the ground hard. Then a scarlet flame erupted from the cobra's snout.
[Burning Snake]
The flame from the staff turned into a waiting thread and became a ferocious snake.
[split]
The serpent of flames split into several branches and increased in number.
The number soon reached nine.
[Hydra]
It swept the undead soldiers in the form of a mythical monster covered in flames.
Jamie grinned as he watched the nine flaming snakes attack his servants.
'Hydra.'
It's a name I haven't heard in a long time.
A nine-headed serpent with venom that even the heroes of the mythology were afraid of.
Of course, that's just imitation of the form. Even so, the magic used by the 6th Class Master.
It was clear that the current undead soldiers could not afford it.
However, Jamie had a different idea.
"Open!"
Azad's call.
He gave orders to the selfless dead, avoiding the serpent of fire that rushed at him.
"Follow me and approach the enemy!"
"The rest of us will protect the master with me!"
Next to Azad was Liza.
He slashed the snake's head and stood in front of Jamie with three undead soldiers.
"Why are you?"
"There was nothing to do inside."
Jamie smirked at Liza's words.
He gave no orders to Azad and Ryza. I just told him to go through the gate of the station.
However, the two guys did not even let them train other undead soldiers.
They themselves took on the role of commander. As a former criminal organization executive, there were many sloppy parts of his tactics, but as he had experience with several subordinates, the command system was not bad.
there! there! Don't run foolishly, predict your movements!
Azad gave an order as if he were giving a command to the town wallpae.
Then the two undead soldiers barely avoided the snake of fire.
Even though the undead soldiers could not understand it, they understood it perfectly because they had practiced a lot.
right!
Azad exclaimed with excitement whether he was satisfied.
Then he stepped on the wall and jumped high.
Another undead blocked the body of a snake head flying towards him. It was an ignorant way to do it because it was an undead, but the effect was excellent.
Azad jumped up to Gav at once, using the soldier's back as his shield as a stepping stone.
Conversely, the dagger he held was memorized. After taking in Jamie's black mana for a week inside the Gate of Reverse Heaven, I was able to make it naturally.
"Go!"
Azad slashed the dagger at Gav with all his might.
Gav looked a little surprised, too, but the dagger didn't reach him.
shield !"
"You are an interesting undead. But that attack can't reach me, right?
The firepower of the Cobra staff has increased.
He was about to swallow Azad as it is, but the undead soldiers who chased after him blew themselves away and pushed Gav away.
this!
It is pushed back with a shield. A well-crafted undead transcends the strength of an ordinary human. It is an undead raised by Jamie with the power of the Reverse Heaven.
Azad seized the opportunity again, turning his body quickly and stretching his legs back as hard as he could.
thud!!
Gav's eyes widened as he saw the shield go dent.
A thin crack appeared in the transparent shield.
not broken It didn't break, but it almost broke.
It wasn't even a high-ranking undead like Death Knight or Durahan. Just a little special undead, that's all.
'But how do I get my shield ?'
It wasn't so weak that it could crack with a single kick.
angry
To be subjected to such humiliation by a single undead that is just like a buggy.
Black mana, which has been concentrated for many years, flows through the body. It was a disgusting force that had absorbed and suppressed countless lives in a vicious way.
Jamie's eyes narrowed. That's not black mana. Black mana isn't that filthy.
But the power was real.
"The trash!"
Kwaang!!
A black shock wave flew across the Azad and Undead soldiers.
Ryza and the undead soldiers who stood in front to protect Jamie were also pushed back by the power of the shock wave.
Bena grabbed hold of the fluttering hair and held her hand away from the wall so as not to fly backwards.
Only Jamie stood still, feeling Gav's power.
'Strong.'
Clearly, the gap is quite large in terms of field alone.
It was only one class difference, but the 6th class master also meant, in other words, just before the 7th class.
A black glow flashed like a flame in Gav's eyes.
"You have crossed a line that should not be crossed. This is unacceptable even for a tolerant country."
A warlock with the nickname 'Curse Master' walks towards Jamie.
"I'm not just going to kill you."
At those words, Jamie grinned and said to the undead soldiers.
"Everyone is back."
"Lord, lord. We can fight more."
"Give us one more chance ."
Azad and Liza asked, but Jamie shook his head.
Growth in such a short period of time was surprising, but against Gav, he only lost soldiers.
"He did a good job. Go back and rest."
The owner's orders are absolute.
Without saying a word, the two bowed their heads to Jamie and entered the gates of the Inverse Heaven together with the undead soldiers.
The door was closed, and the chain creaked the closed door.
Jamie took a deep breath as she counter-summoned the door.
"Would there be any chance of winning if we had to sacrifice even a little of them?"
Gav provoked, but Jamie didn't seem to listen.
Instead, he slowly raised his black mana.
While Azad and Ryza worked hard, they had enough time to spare.
The full-body breathing method restored most of the mana, even if it wasn't full.
The emerald eyes are dyed with deep purple.
black.
The black wings spread out behind his back.
And the wings were sucked into Jamie's body.
By fully assimilating the power of black into the body, the output was increased.
"Then shall we begin?"
Jamie's black mana began to push away Gav's black mana.
* * *
Gav looked at Jamie in disbelief.
'What the hell is that black mana?'
A warlock's black mana was usually filthy and disgusting just by looking at it. It was a power that was strengthened by harming life, so it was a natural phenomenon.
So should Jamie's black mana. But what I felt in it was neither filth nor disgust.
'It puts my mind at ease.'
I remembered the time when I was in the arms of my mother, whom I can't even remember now.
Those memories would have been thrown away in the old evening, so why do I remember those days?
'Dangerous.'
Don't be fascinated by it anymore.
'No. You just have to kill him and study that black mana.'
Now that I see it, it was not a companion to be with, but a mass of experiments.
There is no reason to delay any longer.
'First, I will subdue that guy's spirit.'
His ability to call the undead was great, but it was only that much.
Other than that, the level is similar to that of Salom.
Nothing to worry about.
It had to be. Until the fog forms before my eyes.
"Is the reaction too slow?"
A voice came from nearby.
However, the figure of the opponent is still beyond the fog.
That means that you have already intervened in your own mind.
"This is different from Salom."
Gav chuckled and raised the tip of the staff to his temple.
"Ugh-"
A black tablecloth was pulled out of the temple. A groan came out of the pain as if his brain was being crushed.
The fog disappeared like a lie.
He forcibly pulled out the power of the opponent who was trying to corrode his mind.
"Are you tough?"
Jamie stuck out his tongue as he watched Gav pull out the memorization he had dug into his head without a single thought.
The pain at that time was indescribable.
Nevertheless, to have done it without hesitation means that it is not that you have experienced it once or twice. He probably repeated the application and dismantling of various mental magics on his own body.
It seems that he didn't get the nickname Curz Master in vain. However, the priority of the attack has already been brought to this side.
"Still, don't be vigilant."
ugh-
A zombie approached and bit Gav's right thigh.
The thigh meat was horribly ripped off.
Gav frowned and destroyed the zombies without a trace in the darkness. In that brief moment when the fog was lifted, even the undead were summoned.
'It's fun.'
He succeeded in mental magic against himself, who was at the top of the list, and even applied a meaningful linkage attack.
Although he had conceded the player, Gav was quite shocked. The opponent had an excellent sense of battle enough to narrow the gap.
"If I'm really careful, I'll go to the goal."
"You shouldn't say things like that."
Gav's eyes widened.
He was obviously standing in the hallway of the School Lab.
But here... .
abyss.
Curse is, after all, black magic that stimulates the mind.
And Gav was a magician with excellent skills to be called the Kurz Master.
But one after another, he was struck by the opponent's mental magic.
it gets more and more fun
Gav grinned as he looked at the purple eyes that appeared in the sky instead of the moon.
"Is there any more?"
[There can be no more.]
devoured by fear and die
All kinds of monstrous creatures began to arise in the abyss.
At the same time, the five senses began to fade.
His vision was blurred, his sound was muffled, and his skin hardened as if paralyzed. I couldn't smell it in the first place, and so was the taste.
Well.
It's a great abyss
It must be difficult to maintain an abyss like this with skills that are not even class 6's.
"That was enough."
Gav almost lost all sensation in his body, but casually raised his hand holding the staff.
Jamie saw him and muttered.
'It directly interferes with one's own brain and controls it.'
It's amazing skill, but it's already too late.
[Curse of Dark Spear]
A spear of darkness completed in the air was shot at Gav, who was standing still.
And, the location has changed.
" !"
Jamie barely escaped the flying spear of darkness.
Aww!!!
The spear pierced the wall just as it was, causing a black explosion.
In an instant, a part of the wall in the hallway disappeared without a trace.
The problem wasn't that.
" He's a 6th class master, right?
Jamie smiled bitterly as she looked into the space of the abyss.
It was a prison of the mind he had created.
There, Gav's voice was heard.
[Accept the curse. It's a pretty difficult black magic.]
'Send my abyss to me... . It's not impossible, since I'm in a higher state than I am now.'
It was possible only if he understood the technique and completely grasped the composition of the attributes at stake.
This series of processes was accomplished in a short period of time.
I was a little surprised that he did it even though he wasn't an Archmage.
Indeed, he was like a child who had been clinging to curse magic all his life.
[Let them cry desperately there. I'll be happy to see you outside.]
The monster of the abyss is approaching.
The five senses were rapidly blurred.
To get out, you have to use the same method. But now it was too much of a skill. Even if you succeed, you will not have any mana left, and you will use Curse Again.
Jamie became unable to see, hear, or feel. But his expression didn't falter in the slightest.
'Is it one chance?'
With the current mana, it is impossible to do it more than twice.
that is enough.
'Timing.'
Black mana shook his brain.
A feeling of waking up little by little.
This is the method Gav used. There's no way Jamie can't do that. But he didn't take action right away.
You have to wait a little longer.
'He will definitely give me a chance.'
The anger I saw when my pride was scratched earlier
He was faithful to his emotions to the extent that the fact that he was a seasoned author with a lot of experience was overshadowed.
He pretends to be calm, but the moment he is convinced that he is superior, he will be endlessly vigilant.
And then the time came.
* * *
Gav was looking at Jamie, who was standing there blankly, her eyes unfocused.
I laughed at the thought of being trapped in the abyss that I had created and being eaten by monsters without losing my five senses.
But that's not enough.
After all, it is the abyss he created, and it will be destroyed someday.
Then it gets a little annoying. He's a smart guy, so he won't attack with the same number.
'Then I'll have to destroy my mind altogether. This is how I will write it.'
Gav smiled contentedly.
The ultimate curse that I spent a long time making, but never had anywhere to use.
I will carve it deep into his body.
[Consider it an honor. This is the great curse that I have worked hard for decades. You won't be able to hear it anyway.]
An ominous language began to flow nonstop from Gav's mouth.
It was as if everything living in the world would be sucked into a ditch, like a prelude to ruin.
A black magic that a warlock who reached the end of class 6 completed after decades of research.
[Aesthetics of Slow]
[You will fall into eternity within a moment from now on.]
When a second is divided into tenths, hundredths, and one thousandths, what kind of phenomenon will humans experience?
Cognitive dissonance of everything.
The heterogeneity of supernatural phenomena occurring in reality.
Maintaining the status quo.
Even though it's only one second, can humans endure in such a split time?
"This is my ultimate curse!"
Among the curses that Gav created himself, the most terrifying and heinous was the 'adjustment of the feeling time'.
No matter how strong a person is, if they fall for the 'aesthetic of slowness', they will go crazy.
You don't have to keep the abyss anymore.
In the never-ending moment, all spirits lose their value and burn like garbage.
"Now, where shall we go?"
No time to go to the lab.
At this point, we will separate from the boat. Thoroughly dissect all parts of the body, reveal the identity of the black mana, and make it your own .
What are you doing?
Gav was about to put his hand on Jamie's little boat with eyes wet with greed.
A voice came from right above.
"What are you doing?"
you how ?"
Gav's eyes tremble.
'Aesthetics of Slowness' was definitely a success. Now, that guy's mind was locked in the prison of time, and it was normal when he couldn't do anything.
But why are you talking and looking down at you with that kind of bug-like gaze?
"Isn't that kind of good?"
Jamie chuckled.
His hands were dyed bright red.
"Put away your ugly face."
bang!!!
The 5th class explosion magic 'Explosion' blew away Gav's face.
The Perfect Cell was shining brightly.
