Genius Wizard Breaking Limits - Chapter 241

Episode 241 Nightmare (2)

The kingdom of Estria is a country with four distinct seasons.

The cool weather and colorfully colored forest were comfortable and beautiful. As the days go by, the weather is getting cooler and the trees that have lost their leaves are getting thinner.

Autumn is moving towards its end.

The kingdom’s civil war was like that.

“Huh, retreat! Retreat!”

1 The prince’s army gathers. As a result, the camp of the 2nd Prince collapsed.

Even though they were outnumbered, the soldiers and knights who had already lost their will to fight had nothing on their mind except for their own lives.

Not a small number of commanders were even killed by Vintert. So secretly that you can’t stop it.

His head was severely injured, so his limbs could not move properly.

And so was the sky.

Quaang! Kwaaang!

Several flying boats are crashed by siege magic circles. It was mostly a fleet commanded by the Duke of Devon, from the camp of the 2nd Prince.

Eventually, in the desolate battlefield, the enemies succeeded in breaking through the magic circle and infiltrating the large-scale flying boat with the Duke of Devon.

“Go, Your Excellency, enemies are coming. You must evacuate quickly!”

“… … .”

At the words of the escort knight, the Duke of Devon was silent.

He stared blankly into space, lost in thought.

What’s wrong?

Why was Nigel poisoned to death in front of him?

Why didn’t he kill Nigel’s escort neatly?

I didn’t quite understand.

It feels like there is noise in my head. Her mind was hazy, as if she were dreaming. Maybe this whole thing is a nightmare, I think.

Then someone whispered.

───Destroy

ah.

The focus returned to the eyes of the Duke of Devon.

He suddenly drew his sword and felt a strong fighting spirit.

“Now I have come up with a way to overcome this crisis.”

“dismissal… … ?”

“It is to overheat and destroy the power source of this flying boat. Then the enemies will also take a lot of damage.”

The duke’s knights were stunned.

Those were the words of a madman. It was clear that if I did that, I wouldn’t even be able to find the corpses of the members of the ducal family in this flying boat.

Either way, the Duke of Devon moved.

“Your Excellency, no! Come on, stop your Excellency! hurry!”

The knights moved, but it was impossible.

The Duke of Devon was once a knight representing the kingdom. Even though the sword had rusted over the years, it retained its sharpness.

The Duke of Devon laughed.

“Destroy it.”

The inside of the flying boat shuddered.

heard screams. The splattered blood reached the power chamber before I knew it.

In front of the breathless Duke of Devon, a huge magic stone that serves as the engine of the flying boat flickers. He swung his sword as if it were natural.

and.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Waves of magical power swept across the sky.

The sky shook with a shock enough to blow up an entire castle.

The flying boat caught up in it was shattered in half and crashed, and the magic circle of the large-scale flying boat of the 1st prince’s camp exposed to the aftermath also partially collapsed.

Numerous debris fell to the ground as rain.

“… … .”

The horrors were reflected in the eyes of the second prince, Rotnil.

Perched on the highest castle in the city, he had a clear view of the battlefield. Then, as I moved my gaze to the ground where the commotion came from, the huge castle gate was shaking.

blah blah! Wow!

The magic siege weight destroyed the last gate.

Citizens of the city locked the doors tightly and hid in a corner. Fortunately, it’s not a war, it’s a civil war, so there won’t be any looting.

Some people with bad hands might rob an empty house.

It’s a story that doesn’t matter much to Rotnil.

“His Highness, the 2nd Prince, now uh, what should I do?”

Rotnil’s mother, the second queen, shuddered.

She fully supported Rotnil, mobilizing the connections she had gathered in the social world.

Originally, the queen could not be deeply involved in this matter, but it was possible because the current King of Estyria had no interest in succession to the throne.

And that… … It meant that the consequences of the civil war ending in defeat also had to be fully dealt with.

Rotnil bit his lip.

He soon made up his mind and headed for the third prince, Evers, with the second queen. He must have heard that his brother had a flying boat hidden away.

Under the escort of the knights, the door was opened roughly.

“what… … ?!”

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

But there was no living Evers.

Instead, there was only a cold corpse hanging from a rope. Rotnil could not hide his embarrassment at the sudden suicide.

In the meantime, the 1st prince Balugna arrived.

“Quaaaaaagh!”

Rotnil’s escorts were slaughtered by the knights of the first prince. Trampling down the blood-stained hallway, Valrgna proudly opened the door and entered.

Evers, who could not close his eyes even after death, was the first to be reflected in his field of vision.

“Hmm, you live greedily beyond your means, but you go frugally when you go. Still, I’m proud that my older brother didn’t kill my younger brother. Isn’t it?”

Valrgna slowly turned her head forward.

The two queens sat down in surprise. Rotnil opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth urgently.

“Tongue, brother… … !”

“It’s been a while, Rotnil. You, too, lived crazy with sexual desire and thought that you would carry a woman with you even when you died, but now I would have thought that you would be with your family. Certainly, it seems that people change at the end.”

Valgna smiled.

But his eyes were terribly cold.

Rotnil immediately fell to his knees.

“Ah, I will live quietly from now on. So please save me and her mother, Brother Balrgna!”

“Are you going to live quietly?”

“I promise! No, I’ll do whatever you tell me to do, so please save your life… … !”

“His Highness Balugna, aren’t we members of a royal family like Estiria? So have mercy… … !”

desperately begs for life

Arrogant Valrgna felt very happy about that. It was an unstoppable pleasure for her to subdue those who dared oppose her.

“Well, the civil war is over, so there’s nothing else we can’t do.”

“Me, really?!”

“okay… … by the way. After thinking about it, a better idea comes to my mind.”

Valrgna whispered cruelly.

“The 2nd Prince and 2nd Queen take responsibility for the defeat and commit themselves… … Wouldn’t a picture like that be better? I guess that would be better for me and others. You might as well die and claim your honor. Isn’t it?”

In an instant, the atmosphere turned cold.

“Brother Valrgna! Please, please save me! older brother!”

“I-I am the queen! But for the prince to kill her queen, she will never be forgiven by His Majesty!”

I screamed, but to no avail.

As Balgna chinned, the knights slowly approached. Rotnil and the second queen, who had been walking backwards in fear, reached the window.

A steep cliff with strong winds greeted the two.

After a while.

───Pug, pug.

Two detonating sounds from under the castle signaled the end of the civil war.

* * *

When the civil war ended, cheers were heard.

The humans in the 1st Prince’s Camp shouted the name of Balugna and enjoyed the victory. Robert watched the scene from a distance.

“Finally, the boring battle for the throne is over.”

The victory of the 1st prince Valrgna, supported by Vintert, was confirmed, but Robert’s expression was calm. He quietly folded the telescope and handed it to Gail.

“This gives Vintert a chance to go out into the sun. But Robert doesn’t seem to be very happy.”

“What is there to be happy about? It was a crude civil war with an immediate end. It’s just a pity that the kingdom’s resources were wasted needlessly.”

The possibility of a civil war was assumed.

However, I did not predict that the situation would develop so quickly. It was unexpected that Nigel, of the Duke of Northramd, had gone missing, or rather had been killed, by the Duke of Devon.

‘And the explosion of the Duke of Devon’s flying boat and the suicide of the 3rd Prince Evers are the same.’

I feel like something is wrong.

I felt a sense of distance between the Duke of Devon and the Prince of Evers, whom I had always known.

Robert shook his head, trying to clear his thoughts.

It’s all over anyway.

The Duke of Devon is also dead, and the 2nd and 3rd princes are not in this world. Worrying about it was just unnecessary waste.

Instead, I thought of another problem.

“By the way, how did you secure Asher?”

“No news yet.”

“Still? No matter how much he disappeared, he didn’t even know where he was. That said, I didn’t catch Ferne or Galliac according to the information. Unbecoming of Slay, the way things are handled is disappointing.”

“Would you like to intervene?”

“Of course it should. Leonil’s patience seems to have reached its limit… … It can become a risk factor if you drag it out any longer.”

Leonil is the undisputed strongest in the kingdom.

You mustn’t lose a match with a 6th tier flame mage with full power. The only one who can stand against him is the king of the underworld.

You should maintain as friendly a relationship as possible. If you don’t, the entire dark district could turn to ashes.

“Now that the civil war is over, it would be better to divert the manpower available here to the search for Asher. I feel sorry for Draken, who will be resting first, but since it is an urgent matter, I will mobilize him as well.”

“Okay, Mr. Robert.”

“Then let’s hurry back to Loapra. It’s urgent, but getting His Majesty’s approval comes first.”

Robert and Gail headed to the underworld.

But the two didn’t know.

Who is Vintert’s enemy now? And what will be the consequences of that choice?

* * *

After leaving the Magic Tower, Verden made his own growth a top priority.

In order to raise the hierarchy, he constantly trained his magic circuits, solved quests to gain combat experience, and faced various enemies and won.

The present state is the fruit of such accumulation.

Through two inversions, the body went beyond the extreme.

It is impossible to activate the magic circle of reverse heaven once more or to raise the hierarchy through the expansion of the magic circuit.

In other words, it has achieved perfection.

‘This is enough.’

You don’t have to live in self-control anymore.

The stage of spiritual enlightenment remains, but now that he has reached the level of a semi-transcendental being, there will not be many beings who can stand against him in the world.

The manager confirmed it, and Verden is convinced as well.

Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Verden slowed down.

At the end of the line of sight, the large city of Aurople is visible. Roapra, a dark house hidden in the far underground, was now in front of them.

Verden headed for the castle gate.

Now, without Yuzu’s robe, he could infiltrate using , but he had no intention of doing so. No matter what the situation was, I had the confidence to overwhelm him.

That was then.

───Hey! Asher, you bastard!

A familiar voice is heard.

Naturally, he turned his gaze downward.

A gigantic two-handed ax was mounted on his back, and a ferocious looking giant was swinging a one-handed axe.

“slaughterer?”

Platinum Rank Adventurer, Butcher Galiak.

It was an unexpected reunion.

Why is that crazy adventurer here? Feeling doubtful, Verden fell to the ground.

Galliac is approaching.

“Fuck, I thought we would meet if we came here, but did we really meet? You unlucky bastard.”

“Did you find me? why… … .”

Verden stopped talking in the middle.

Now that I look at it, Galliak doesn’t look so good. His armor was in tatters and there were scars all over his body, as if he had been attacked.

Who did you hurt?

Verden was genuinely curious.

“Why are you like that?

“… … Hee hee hee, why are you like this?”

Galiak smiled and became serious.

“It’s because of you, this is a cub.”

* * *

Galiak was in a very bad mood.

Because of the fact that he accompanied Verden in the dark, he never dreamed that he would be attacked so many times.

Vintert assassins, mercenaries hired by Vintert, and trash living in the back alleys. The assailants were varied.

“If you kill me, I will come back as soon as I kill you. They don’t just come here, they secretly inject paralysis poison into people’s food, and don’t they come in the middle of the night so you can’t even sleep. No, what the fuck did I do wrong, do I have to go through this?”

Galliak pounded his chest.

It didn’t suit him, he looked so unfair that he would die.

‘Well, I guess.’

I never thought they would attack not only Ferne, but Galliac as well. It seemed that he was frantic about finding someone with a fairly specific trait.

“It was not intentional.”

“Ha, while I haven’t seen you, you seem to have taken care of things? well, done What are you going to do now? From what I can see, it looks like they are going to have a bout in the dark.”

Galliak glanced at Verden.

In addition to a robe that looks extremely rare, he is carrying a staff he has never seen before. Even looking at it, it was clear that it was a weapon that was incomparable to anything he had used before.

But there was something else that bothered me more than that.

‘What the hell is this bastard?’

It’s hard to put into words, but… … To put it bluntly, the sense of presence has changed.

Before, I could feel the magic, but now I can’t detect anything. But even so, there is an atmosphere that quietly overwhelms the surroundings.

I don’t know what it is, but it must have been a big change.

Then, Verden said.

“Originally, I had no intention of putting my hand on it. But lately, Vintert has been quite annoying.”

“So you want to get rid of it? Then you will have to deal with the entire underworld?”

“I came for that in the first place.”

An answer without even a moment’s hesitation.

Galliak smiled wickedly and shook his shoulders.

“Asher, you bastard. It’s not like it looks hot, it’s still hot.”

“What are you going to do?”

“Of course you have to go along. I’m here for that too.”

Even if you tell them to turn it off, they will follow you.

For Verden, it didn’t matter.

If it’s a Galliac, it won’t be a hindrance. To be honest, the result is the same no matter who accompanies it.

“Then follow me.”

Verden and Galliac.

The two, who had been together for a long time, entered Aurople.

The East Continent’s largest dark house, Roapra.

There, a terrible nightmare by a mage is about to begin.
