It was after the appearance of the Special Operations Command that the status of the illusion wizard began to be re-examined within the Demon King’s army.
Previously, the theory was that it was impossible for even the best illusion wizards to stand out on the battlefield, but one day a new turning point was reached through blasphemous research and investigations by a newly established secret organization.
The key is Shinyeok (神域). There was an answer to the power of the gods, who had previously existed in the realm of ignorance and changed the area into their own realm at the same time as Advent.
It is not known where the devil’s body was obtained, but one of the many results from the process of interpreting the dead divinity contributed greatly to the development of illusion magic. I was able to complete a spell to manifest the countless pre-stages required for casting in an instant like a divine role.
The ripple effect of that was enormous. It was a natural reaction, since the lump of luggage that was only a fixed trap became a weapon that could directly pursue the enemy.
As soon as the illusion wizard activates the spell, those within the range are afflicted with magic without even realizing it. Even though its essence is magic, it is so secretive that it is difficult for even skilled wizards to notice unless they know in advance, perhaps because divine power is used for the expression of magic.
Of course, as everything in the world requires a price, there was a very slight stumbling block, but it was also possible to cope with it by adjusting the scale of magic, so high-ranking officials who visually confirmed the research results wanted to put it on the front line immediately.
However, Calesi Vicis, the ‘tower builder’ who has been leading the development of the Special Operations Command and Illusion Magic research at the cutting edge, decided to thoroughly hide this epoch-making achievement from the front line.
It was only to be used as a trump card to deal with the hero.
‘Even though it was packaged so grandiosely, it was just a by-product derived from the process of proving the hypothesis that the essence of the gods is magic.’
The woman, with her untidy dark brown hair loosely tied and pulled back, recalling the past with eyes filled with heavy fatigue, raised her upper body, scratching the horns that had grown like a bow over her ears. The lodgings and attendants, which were so splendidly decorated that one would not have dared dare to dare in the past, did not adapt easily.
Outside, war is in full swing, but inside, it’s a different world, enough to believe that nobles went out on a picnic to pass the time. Due to the nature of the demon tribe, which favors the strong, it was a luxury that previous illusion wizards could not even dream of.
“Is there any movement of the hero yet?”
“yes.”
Even two men and women bowing their heads as servants, they are capable people who can easily subdue a decent number of white captains. Realizing once again that he was using such people as escorts and attendants, Khalesi burst out laughing.
It was a very good deal no matter how many times I thought about it.
“What is the condition of the troops?”
“It has been reported that there are no signs of erosion. In case of any unforeseen circumstances, Deputy Baselard said that they went through a separate check.”
The man called Baselad answered the question immediately, without hesitation.
And it was a report of ‘anomalies’ that had already been talked about in advance. Khalesi feigned composure while forcing herself to frown, nodded lightly.
“Okay, can we go out and talk for a minute?”
In order to distract his subordinates, he ordered a recheck of the equipment, and after seeing Baselard follow him, Khalesi hardened his expression as soon as the tent at the entrance came down.
“How many?”
“Two. They were the ones who lacked the most skill, but they couldn’t keep their composure on the battlefield and fought a little too much.”
“In what form?”
“I was directly involved in the killing.”
Tsk. Khalesi, who unconsciously clicked her tongue, lowered her head, pressing her temple with her index finger.
Even if it’s just dead dregs, evil spirits are evil spirits, and if you’re a little careless, you’ve become an ‘obstacle’ like this. It doesn’t matter if it simply dazzles, threatens, and confuses the opponent, but if you change the direction of the illusion and intervene in the form of direct murder, it crosses the line in an instant.
It is not necessary to do so, but it is a symptom of making someone close to an idiot who can’t do anything, or making them mistaken for an acquaintance and then stabbing them to death.
It was an act that accelerated erosion, and at the same time it was evidence that erosion had begun.
“No matter how much I emphasize that using that type of magic is inefficient, it eventually comes out.”
“I don’t think it’s a normal case. It was a case where I had no choice but to try it until I was on the verge of death. I missed it and came to this point.”
“...that doesn’t matter.”
It was impossible to point out each soldier and ask what kind of battle they fought today. If you meet a strong enemy, you can’t tell them to die gracefully, so it was better to adjust it to kill as many enemies as possible before being completely encroached on.
“They said that many troops fell into the rear.
“Shall we put a word on command?”
“I do it myself. You just position yourself well in advance so that they can rampage without hesitation.”
Since Baselard had predicted this situation for a long time while studying together, there were no unnecessary comments. There were times when I worried about what to do if I hesitated, but fortunately, he was the kind of person who thought it was all the same whether he died from erosion or died fighting on the battlefield.
And it was the same with Khalesi, so she had no regrets about her two soon-to-be subordinates.
Khalesi headed to the command post, hoping that this opportunity could be used to reliably deal with or conciliate the hero.
Just in time, a signal flared up in the distance announcing the appearance of the hero.
