[ Episode 249. Adrias’ magic]

Cryson opened his mouth in the middle of a strange silence.

“You knew it was a trap and came on your own? That’s funny. Other than that, you are already a rat with nowhere to escape.”

“Me?”

Looking around, there were 23 people who seemed to be quite strong.

All of them felt like elites who had been in the tower for quite some time.

Basically, time passes slowly while climbing, so if you live in the tower for a long time, your skills will inevitably improve.

It can be said that it is a suitable place for training.

“Cryson. If you know it’s a trap like you said, what does that mean?”

“.......”

“Are you getting anxious? Aren’t you wondering why I’m fine and why I don’t look frightened when you’re so close to an Aura Master?”

“......Did you call another faction?”

“It can’t be. I can’t show things like this shame anywhere else.”

The magic wriggled.

Feeling the mana moving as if it would jump out at any moment, I got up from my seat.

“What are you going to do? If you apologize even now, I’m willing to take care of it.”

“You are bluffing. Do you know that I can be fooled? I don’t know how the poison was detoxified, but I can’t break through these people alone.”

“The defeat of the trap you set is......”

Serung–

A pure white blade appeared.

“That means you weren’t an Auror Master.”

“Kill!”

“Yaah!”

I swung like a sword at the nearest enemy who rushed at me in an instant.

At the same time, I cast a spell and made the marble floor rise in the direction I was not swinging my sword.

Quaang!

The building shook and the shock was transmitted.

First of all, with the sword, he removed one enemy who had been completely slashed, ran out, and attacked another enemy in front of him.

In the meantime, he cast magic without a break and supported assist and attack.

Quadruped!

Quaggagak!

“Don’t run, Adrias Cromwell!”

“You should call His Excellency.”

I was distracted enough to overload my head.

Numerous enemies and even the magic that is used simultaneously with the sword.

If my swordsmanship talent wasn’t a genius, it would have been difficult to wield a sword.

Like an idiot, I avoided only Cryson and attacked only his subordinates.

Cryson, who was disturbed by magic, gnashed his teeth as he saw me drifting away again just as he wanted to catch up.

“A guy like this rat!”

“Soon it will be over. Please wait until then.”

As I said, the number of his subordinates who entered the restaurant were gradually decreasing.

It was only then that some of the people who noticed my skills hesitated and looked at them, and in the end, they couldn’t even escape and became corpses by my sword.

“Aaaaaaa!”

Jjaeng!

Aaaaaang!

Finally, Cryson’s sword reached me.

The long bastard sword, befitting his body, pushed out and crushed Galaksur with tremendous pressure.

“I got you, man!”

It seemed that he didn’t even notice that I was deliberately caught because he was excited.

I spoke slowly but clearly to Cryson, who was close by.

– Stop.

“Is it big?”

Mana was arranged through my breathing and verbal will, and it was manifested through the magic formula that was created soon after.

The amount of mana that escaped was higher than any other magic ever used.

But the effect is overwhelming.

“......Ahhh.”

Cryson made a gasping sound as if he was choking.

I got close to him and whispered in his ear.

“Are you curious? This is my original magic.”

At the mention of the word original magic, Cryson’s pupils widened.

My first original magic through Origin of Control.

It was ‘spell magic’.

Crazy magic that controls all environments and situations through language and will.

However, it was a magic that the culprit could never use because the amount of mana that went in according to the condition jumped like crazy.

I stabbed Cryson’s shoulder, who couldn’t move, with Galaksur.

His lightly stabbed shoulder area was stained red.

“It’s okay to kill you, but if you do, the power level in the tower will be messed up.”

“Shut up.”

“Why did you come when you knew it was a trap? I’m here to warn you. I’m not going to run into you again anyway, but don’t even think about cheating.”

“Garnet gave it to me.”

Dolls, or immortals, are basically asexual, so they don’t have a gender, but their appearance and taste were made to be guessed.

Garnet had a feminine appearance, and her way of speaking, behavior, and taste were feminine in terms of human beings, but she seemed to match Vivian pretty well.

‘Vivien

is better than I thought.......

Vivian was beautiful in the clothes Garnet gave her.

It was so pretty, but the clothes were so bright that it felt like a person was living.

There was a sense of contrast, perhaps because he had only worn dull leather armor or greaves.

“Garnet has some seeing eyes.”

“Pretty?”

“Yes, it is very pretty.”

Seeing Vivian smile broadly at my words, a vague thought that this could be happiness crossed my mind.

But as soon as I felt that happiness, anxiety came immediately.

The irony of being happy makes me anxious.

It was the difference between having nothing and having it.

‘The Transcendentalist that Original Sin spoke of is still unknown.’

are you still okay?

Me and Vivian went to District 2, where Diene was staying.

The previous day, after the adaptation period was finally over, Diene, who had been transferred to Laudelen’s forces, went straight to District 2, where she could use the golden seal.

I haven’t seen it yet, but seeing that I went to a neutral area, not the territory of Rodlen’s forces, I think something happened, but I couldn’t pay attention because I was so busy climbing.

“hmm?”

However, the first thing he encountered before meeting Diene was an unexpected person.

“Long time no see.”

Namgung Ilyoung ran into us with the woman on either side.

“Yes, it’s been a while.”

“I didn’t climb today for some reason. Is it the limit?”

“You say it as if you know we climbed every day.”

“Know. I get a report every day.”

He let out a habitual sigh as he said casually that he was spying.

“Haha, how can you guys live so hard? To be honest, I don’t understand.”

“Confucius Namgung Ilyeong seems to be satisfied with his current life, right?”

“Why do you think so?”

“Otherwise, I wouldn’t have questioned living hard.”

“Hmm, did you think I wasn’t living hard because I was satisfied with my current life? There is a point.”

he took a step

Then, without realizing it, I took a step back.

I was a little taken aback as my body moved naturally.

“As expected......”

Seeing me like that, Namgung Ilyoung carved a meaningful smile on his lips.

“Did you see it?”

“Ah......”

I was able to realize when I asked if I could see it.

One simple step.

However, there was an innumerable group of people in that one step.

And looking to the side, Vivian did not step back, but rather advanced in a diagonal line, ready to attack Namgoong Ilyoung at any time.

“You are already dead to me.”

he said, glancing at Vivian.

And then he turned his gaze to me.

“But you lived. Pretty good.”

He said that and tilted his head.

“I thought if he had that level of talent, he would be like me. Is it because I haven’t reached my level yet? To be honest, unlike a sword, I don’t know much about life. What is the reason for living hard?”

He sighed again and looked at me and Vivian.

“I don’t have time today, but maybe you will have time tomorrow?”

“yes.”

“As I said beforehand, this is just out of curiosity. It’s nothing particularly great.”

He hesitated a little, then proposed to us.

“I want to see a little of your swords. It sounds obvious, but I’ll show you. How is it?”

Even I, who don’t know much about the martial arts worldview, was so common and famous that I had heard of the name Namgungse.

Of course, the prodigy of such a family could not refuse the offer to show each other their swords.

“I am fine.”

“I don’t care either.”

“Then it’s decided. Tomorrow, at the same time as now, come to Hongwolru in District 5.”

Namgung Ilyeong finished with those words and passed us along with the women who came with us.

The women who came with him stared at me and Vivian, not hiding their surprised feelings, and chatted with each other.

“Are you lucky?”

As you can see, Namgung Ilyeong was a person who could not use his hands because of his terrible indolence.

At least in the game, I couldn’t make him a colleague, and since he was a character with no way to use it, I had little information.

A strange relationship was sprouting here too.
