Chapter 71

Episode 71:

Caught up.

The name of the vehicle they are riding is Nata.

As if the name of God came to mind, no one could catch up with the speed of the monster in the desert.

Unless you were a sword master or archmage, you couldn’t beat that speed.

“Hahahaha!”

My brows naturally furrowed at the sound of an eccentric laugh.

I didn’t want to hear that sound, but

I told my group to stop.

“Close your eyes and don’t open them until I give you the signal.”

I saw the group close their eyes one by one.

As I looked back at them, I spoke to Beatrice, who slowly closed her eyes.

“ah. Beth doesn’t have to close her eyes. Because wizards are okay.”

Her eyes widened at my words.

And then his face hardened as if he understood the meaning of what I said.

“Oh what. “Why are they okay?”

A bewildered voice rose from among the marauders surrounding us.

Illusion Magic

They were performing Illusion, a 4th circle magic.

Unless they are resistant to mana, knights are protecting their minds with auras.

I couldn’t help but hallucinate.

The marauders were using such magic on a regular basis.

Because they always bring a wizard with them when they go out.

“They’re so fine, aren’t they?”

“Are you sure you’re doing it right?”

Normally, we would have lost our minds and collapsed or been out of breath and suffering, but we don’t care.

They were very embarrassed by it.

It was the first time they had encountered someone who was so fine.

Even a party that includes a wizard isn’t this good.

At first I was confused, but then I realized it was magic and only then did I try to solve it.

By then it was already too late.

“The magic has definitely worked! “Those guys are weird!”

A man behind them, extending his hand toward us, screams.

His hands were shaking and he was drenched in sweat.

It was at its peak power.

He tried to show us hallucinations by squeezing his mana to its limit.

‘It’s so obvious.’

I was already hallucinating.

So there’s no way you’re hallucinating. Even if hallucinations overlap on hallucinations, the result is hallucinations.

“This is... simple.”

Beside her, Beatrice was interpreting the illusion unfolded by the wizard.

She was a born scholar and wizard.

He showed great interest in the illusions that unfolded in real life, which were different from the illusions he had learned at academic conferences.

“Is it something like this?”

When I heard that it was a world with magic, the first thing I was curious about was illusion.

In the novel, it is said that when an illusion is unfolded, a fantasy that the other person considers the most terrible unfolds.

But I didn’t have that.

no.

It was clear that it was such a terrible memory that if it had been before, I wouldn’t have been able to breathe properly.

but.

‘Because I’m Raymond.’

What I was like when I was Lee Seong-hyuk.

That image didn’t make much of an impression.

Rather, it was boring.

It seemed so pathetic, to say the least, that I lived like that.

“Nothing much.”

As I focused the aura in my eyes, the illusion faded and a path of mana appeared.

I could see the threads of mana coming from the wizard forming an illusion.

There are three ways to dispel the spell.

The first is to attack the magician before the magic unfolds.

The second is for the same wizard to use the cancel spell.

And the last third.

Kwajangchang.

All you have to do is destroy the Mana Path.

He raised his sword and cut down the threads that connected the wizard and magic.

“Whoops...!”

Then the wizard collapsed, coughing up blood.

Mana reflux.

It is a side effect of magic that occurs when magic is forcibly dismantled.

When the wizard fell, the illusion magic that had been maintained disappeared.

“ah...!”

Beatrice, who was in the middle of analyzing magic, sighed as if she was disappointed.

“hmm. “They are strange people.”

A conclusion has been made.

He’s a strange guy who doesn’t work with magic.

And one of them looked at the sword I was holding and said.

“If you don’t want to be left behind, put it in, right?”

“Do you think you can use a sword? But it wouldn’t be good to show that kind of pride in front of us.”

“You know who we are...”

There are eight sword masters on the continent.

Four in the Empire and two in Seiron. And one in the weak southern kingdom. Lastly, the mercenary king.

There were a total of eight sword masters known so far.

After that, the sword masters did not appear... the continental people thought.

But no.

‘Our leader is the sword master.’

It was something that only a few unknown people knew about.

The leader of the northern marauders is the Sword Master.

And the people who traveled to and from the North without dying knew that.

I had no choice but to know.

Because all the people who swung their swords at the marauders were killed by the leader.

And among the dead was a knight of the highest rank as a Sword Expert.

Since then, people have assumed that the leader is the Sword Master.

That is why there was an unwritten rule in the North.

Don’t mess with the marauders from the north.

If you want to live, give up everything you have and bow down.

‘Does he not know that?’

But there was no way the guy coming to the north wouldn’t know that.

And above all, that guy knew them.

They do this even though they know it.

That’s confidence.

It was an appearance that could be seen because of the confidence that one could not be touched.

For some reason, an alarm bell went off in my head telling me not to touch it.

“You’re so crazy that you want to die!”

The looters ignored the warning.

Their successors are sword masters.

There is no reason to be afraid.

There was no word about a new Sword Master being created.

They knew the face of the currently existing Sword Master.

And I know that the masked man over there is not one of the Sword Masters.

“What are you doing! Are you going to stay still?”

I shouted to my colleagues who came with me.

Staying still like this was like watching that masked bastard ignore them.

I need to suppress that bridge of my nose.

That way they won’t be ignored.

If they let things go like that, they will become a laughing stock later.

“Yeah, I hope that confidence lasts until the end. Hit it!”

“Aaaah!”

The looters ran all at once.

Their weapons swung at the mask.

and.

Kakakakakang!

They all bounced off.

It was just one swing.

It wasn’t a particularly special movement.

All I had to do was lift my sword and swing it towards the sky.

“crazy...!”

With that one movement, all attacks were neutralized.

I’ve never heard or seen anything like this.

How is that possible?

“Why doesn’t it work out the way you want?”

His neck creaked at the voice he heard at that time.

No facial expression was visible.

But it seemed to be visible.

I’m smiling.

was laughing

That he is laughing at them from behind that invisible mask.

“I told you so.”

he says

As if an attack like this was nothing.

With your legs crossed.

They looked at themselves with an air of boredom.

“I believe in myself.”

Wooooow-

The sword he was holding cried.

A blue aura dwells and a wind blows around it.

The space became distorted.

A powerful wave of aura.

My whole body was shaking just by looking at it right in front of me.

‘You can’t win this.’

I touched the wrong person.

That thought alone filled his head.

And soon his thoughts came to reality.

As he raised the sword filled with aura, the eyes of the mask drew a half moon.

The looter felt ominous.

You must not remain still.

“Run away!”

He shouted at his colleagues.

“late.”

A storm of auras struck them.
