Genius Wizard Breaking Limits - Chapter 528



Only Noblemtl

Episode 528 Purge (3)

Upon receiving word that the weapon had been completed, they headed to the mines in the conflict zone, where they were greeted by a hand chain decorating a hand on a wooden table and a single-edged sword stored in a dark scabbard.

The Sentence of Domination, [Elderon].

The name means control in ancient language.

Lightsword, [Silendar].

This also means speed or light in ancient language.

Even common artifacts are so rare that it is difficult to find an owner across the continent, but they are clearly of a different class, to the point where they can be described as such.

───How long has it been since I sent you a message and you’re already here? This communication device is quite convenient. I don’t have to waste time. I wonder how it works inside.

Gharun observed the communication device that Verden had given him with interest.

He looked unusually tired, as if the task of making two artifacts using keel bones in a row was quite difficult.

Even though they had shifted, Geraldine and the dwarves of the village, who had been working hard to keep the facility running for days, had already fallen asleep a long time ago.

By the way, Linus was the first to pass out as soon as production was finished. He was found sprawled out in a corner, covered in a blanket.

───Please give me the drink behind you. The coldest one.

───Ah, here it is.

Isabella handed him a cold flask of liquor. Gharun sat down on his chair, quenching his thirst, and stroked his orange beard.

───The [Elderon] here is a weapon created by my one-armed disciple with my assistance. It focuses on the unusual and vicious magic you have developed, and you can also constantly change the magic power through the starting word. However, there is one thing to be careful of.

───What should I pay attention to?

───If possible, do not use it beyond its capacity. This is my first time making a weapon for a heteromorph. I don’t know what changes it will bring to you, its owner.

Gharun warned Isabella about the heteromorphism she was carrying. The heteromorphs are dangerous by nature. The trait itself is heteromorphic.

The more a being goes beyond common sense, the more difficult it is to clearly interpret its power and to predict future changes in power.

───I don’t think there will be any particular problems… … Okay, I understand. Thank you, I will use it well.

───Since this was a request from Asher, there is no need for words of thanks.

Gharun snorted once and turned his head to Adrian. After [Elderon] finished his brief explanation, he moved on to the next one.

───This [Silendar] doesn’t have any special functions. When I had the time, I hammered it once more and soaked it in magic water once more to focus on the performance of the sword itself.

The ideal sword that Adrian Chenvers desired was, quite simply, a sword.

I wanted a weapon that would allow me to dramatically utilize my speed───without having to recite a starting word or meet limited conditions to create powerful phenomena.

It was Gharun’s pure ability to see through such psychology at once.

So I focused on the basics.

[Cedence], a magical sword that was passed down to Adraan by Verden from Grond Vale di Baladis, the former king of Loafra.

The power to cut magic by breaking the magical array it possesses.

And the destructive sharpness that the dragon’s claws inherently possess, almost ignoring the resistance of objects.

Gharun succeeded in maximizing and combining the above two properties by using all kinds of materials, including dwarven alloys with a high proportion of the highest metals, as a medium, and eventually unifying them.

───In short, it’s just a sword, so there’s nothing particularly dangerous about it. But remember this one thing.

Gharun declared.

───Unless you’re dealing with something of higher hardness and strength, it’s entirely your fault if you can’t cut with this sword.

[Silendar] has unique abilities.

Destructive power based on speed.

Kwajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajaja!

A purple crescent moon, more than twice as large as the original, sweeps through the forest. Trying to block it from the front is the worst option.

Immediately, Karindin and Mabel left their seats in .

‘It’s the same skill I saw at the Great Hall, but the slash is much more powerful. Is it because of that sword?’

A single-edged sword with a deep blue and black color that reflects the moonlight. It is different from the one that broke after being cut by Dahit’s magic.

A chill runs down my spine.

Karindin activated the magical circuits throughout her body and took up her stance.

Magic

Kwakwakwakwakwakwang!

Arrows were fired repeatedly from a bowstring made of flame, blazing with fire.

Several small pillars of fire shot up from the impact point, burning the area, and Adrian quickly dashed between them.

Karindin looked around to make sure there was no support from the enemy, then put strength into her fingertips.

“I don’t know where you acquired such a weapon in just a few months, but to think you could face us alone in this unsealed place… … I’ll burn all your arrogant judgment.”

As the ball of fire that Carandin had launched high exploded, a red rain poured down.

Mabel captured Adrian’s movements as he moved through the bright red light that illuminated the darkness.

He took out two short curved swords with a staff as the handle and flashed his magical power.

Madou

All sorts of curses rippled across her skin, covering her body like tattoos. The aura of death was woven into the curved blade.

Mabel rushed in.

Wow!

A metallic sound echoing through the burning forest.

Naturally, it is nearly impossible for Mabel to handle Adrian’s swordsmanship at close range with the weapon skills she has acquired.

But she is a black magician.

Just before the light sword reached their necks, nets stretched out from each of the two curved swords, blocking both their movements.

A curse that fixes each other’s positions.

Immediately afterwards, a massive arrow carrying an enormous density plummeted vertically from the sky.

Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwang!

Adrian barely managed to escape the black magic and throw himself away from the blast. Unable to handle the heat, his breath was shattered.

I glanced sideways at the faint smoke rising from the robe, then stared straight ahead.

‘They were after Mabel, not me.’

Karindin is still in the sky, so she probably won’t be using our allies as bait to escape.

There is something.

At that moment, a flame so fierce that the other side could not be seen blazed.

A two-meter tall giant walking leisurely out of a sea of ​​fire. An undead made of flames, it holds two large flame scythes.

It felt similar to the Archlich that Melad had given consciousness to… … but it was only visually similar, and was essentially a different kind.

That’s Mabel.

Yeongwang

The sword flashed and tore the undead in half. If it were a human, it would have been instant death. Then, the split flames regrouped and filled the gap.

“He’s more agile than any inspector I’ve ever killed. He’d be beheaded if he showed even the slightest weakness. This is only when I was alone.”

, a unique magic that unites with the external environment through the curse engraved on the body.

By absorbing Karindin’s immaterial flames, she gains immunity to high temperatures and is free from most physical limitations.

The warrior’s natural enemy.

“Then you should have brought at least one wizard.”

The ground split open as two blazing scythes struck the ground, flashing light. Lava containing a curse that hindered healing erupted.

In the air, Karindin took his time concentrating his magical power and created two ballistas, each firing a bolt.

A radius of several tens of meters was transformed into an inferno.

Unlike Adrian, who was focused on getting out of range as much as possible, Mabel, engulfed in flames, paid no attention to the heat.

Wow!

[Silendar] who blocked the scythe.

Adrian dug forward and launched a horizontal slash, but just like before, it did not work on Mabel.

‘Is the density changing from moment to moment?’

As expected, he has been building up his skills for a long time and is picky as expected from one of the first members.

Few people can handle that combination.

‘But it’s not enough.’

Baloch Besias, as well as the highest elders of the Bohemirn Tower… … are in no way comparable to those who reached the pinnacle of magic, took away the Master’s arms and legs, and used them as living test subjects.

It’s a mountain that must be overcome.

Extreme extreme

The sense of touch, heightened by the seasons, detects the flow of nature and magic. However, Mabel’s true identity is vague, but that doesn’t matter.

The will is full and the black is sharp.

Adrian lifted his heels off the ground and leaned his weight drastically.

Phew.

The new model is gone.

As the fireball that had come right up to her nose was cut off, one of Mabel’s arms behind her was deeply cut in half.

“No matter how fast you are, your sword skills won’t work… … Huh?”

Knock… knock… knock… .

The flames do not go out.

Blood flowed from inside, soaking the ground and drying in the surrounding heat.

Adrian sharpened his sword.

“Do your best.”

Mabel, momentarily dazed by the sudden provocation and pain, soon burst into laughter.

“Young people are so cheeky.”

Mabel Lisonia Schiller gave her blood. It was the price paid for her life force.

Every curse she casts is granted certainty.

A moment of silence.

Three people moved.

* * *

Everything is on fire.

The blackened trees turned to charcoal and withered away, and the fresh grass and flowers turned to ash and scattered.

Acrid smoke occasionally obscures the view. The dark moon mercilessly illuminates the world.

Two high-ranking magicians who created the Black Hour decades ago and influenced the era.

A prosecutor advancing into his prime.

As the wills of the three people crossed in succession, a huge aftermath occurred. Mabel, who was maintaining the flame undead, repeated the calculation.

that amplifies damage

that weakens physical abilities

that causes intense pain in the burn

, sharing the caster’s injuries

… … .

All sorts of high-level curses struck Adrian regardless of speed. The first time, he successfully resisted them all, but the second, third, and fourth were different.

Ugh.

Adrian gritted his teeth.

Curses that lowered physical abilities never worked, while curses that increased pain eventually worked.

A stabbing sensation, as if someone was cutting the burned area with a knife, struck my nerves.

However, Adrian, who had gained terrible experience through sparring with the Transcendent Verden several times, could not be intimidated.

Chaotic dance

Adrian, who broke through the flames with his mind clear, unleashed dozens of purple sword energy.

It is unavoidable.

Mabel, who was stabbed in the butt, has several scars. [Sylendar] bends towards her neck.

Karindin’s eyes sparkled.

‘Got it.’

A spear of flame that rushes forward like a ray of light.

It was a speed that could pierce through an opponent before the sword could even reach Mabel.

At that moment.

Adrian spun around sharply, changing direction, and kicked a nearby tree hard as the spear of flame pierced the ground.

Countless charred pieces of wood flew towards Karindin, and Adrian stepped on them and soared into the sky.

Skillful movements that are almost like a craft.

“Misjudgment… …!”

The surprise was short-lived, as Karindin formed a flaming greatsword from his staff. It was the one that had burned Adrian’s organs in the Great Hall.

If it’s the sky, Karindin, who can freely, has the advantage.

Kwakwakwakwakwa───!

A wave of flames from the swinging greatsword filled my vision. Since I was in the air, I had nowhere to run, so I had to face it head-on.

Nevertheless, Adrian calmly drew his lightsaber and threw his arm, instantly tensing all the muscles in his body.

A pure, slaughterful attack using all one’s might, not skill.

Adrian finally reached Karindin’s altitude after cutting off the flames blocking his way. He slashed diagonally with his sword.

Crunch.

The flame shield made of magic was split. Even the four fingers hidden behind it, except for the thumb, were split.

Then Adrian’s spinning kick struck Karindin’s head.

“Big… … !!!”

Karindin gritted his teeth and let the flames explode inside his body. The two people fell down and collided hard with the ground.

“Tch.”

Adrian spat out the blood that had gushed out from the back of his throat, pushed the ground with his lightsaber, and raised himself up with all his might.

Even though he must have suffered internal injuries, as he had burn marks all over his body, and even though he must have felt the pain even more because he was cursed, he seemed to not care at all mentally.

Mabel raised her head, clutching her still bleeding wound.

As I watched Adrian advance again, that thought suddenly occurred to me.

‘… …Why did it turn out like this?’

She naturally pursued rational thinking from a very young age. She followed him and acquired reason as time went by.

I worked hard to achieve the desired results without being swayed by personal feelings.

With his outstanding talent added to that, he was able to enter the Dark Wotton Tower, the third-ranked tower in the comprehensive tower hierarchy, at an early age.

But I soon regretted it.

The moment I saw the heartless, empty gaze of the top of the tower, looking at this world as if it were dead, I had an intuition.

Even if I climbed higher from here, I couldn’t escape those eyes… … The gaze of the transcendent being of death was empty.

During that time, while wandering outside the magic tower for various reasons, I met some peculiar magicians. They were people who purely pursued magic.

We talked and did activities together and somehow we came to a common understanding.

That’s how Black Hour was created.

Not only was it more comfortable than the Dark Warton Tower… … but somehow I felt like I could climb higher with this organization.

That’s why she left the tower without hesitation. The tower didn’t catch her.

As time passed, the leader Jeremiah picked up Dahit from the magic city.

The material of a transcendent being.

I was instinctively convinced.

If I raised this guy as my disciple, I would be able to ascend to even higher places… … So, later on, I willingly betrayed my comrades, following Dahit’s will while he was hiding his transcendence.

And as expected, it didn’t take long for them to rise from an unusual magical research group to a powerful transcendent force.

She reigned as the top executive.

‘But that was all.’

Dahit Wesroel no longer treated the first member as a teacher. He must have lost his feelings at some point.

The guy didn’t even mention what his ideals were… … or what he was willing to do for him, and Mabel didn’t even ask.

But what is certain is that Dahit has always pursued memory.

Even to this day.

Choaack!

The shoulder was deeply cut.

My tendon was severed and I couldn’t use my strength properly. I dropped the handle. My breathing was so short that it was hard to breathe.

It was the same with Karindin.

Even though his opponent was seriously injured, his sword was still sharp.

Mabel had never felt so cold in her life. Maybe that was why she smiled as she gained some insight.

“Ahahaha… … I think I now understand what the theory of memory that Dahit has been talking about really is.”

Mabel smiled.

“You know, when you see Melard and Vermont later… … tell them I’m sorry?”

The head that had always maintained cool reason was stained with emotion.

The end is coming.

Mabel and Karindin simultaneously cast their final unique spells. The cursed sea of ​​fire shook wildly.

It also had a definite effect.

Adrian galloped.

Intensification

He activated the spell and pierced through a straight line, leaving behind a purple glow. Something invisible to the eye instantly destroyed the magic.

A black energy that was completely undetectable to the senses cut through everything in the vertical line, including the sky.

dump.

Mabel died instantly.

The flames scattered and the torn flesh along with the heart fell down.

“Ugh, ugh… … .”

Karindin fell to his knees, his right half nearly splitting apart. His staff, finally released, rolled feebly across the blackened ground.

“I thought that Black Hour couldn’t just pursue magical research. That’s why we needed power. A power that could protect us and reign as a power… … . But no one except Mabel wanted it. The leader in particular tried to maintain the Black Hour of that time… … . And for the unknown ideal that Dahit wanted, a new Black Hour was needed.”

Karindin slowly raised her head.

“After all, power is everything in this world. But how could it end up like this… … What went wrong? Was it wrong to pursue power?”

“There was nothing wrong.”

Adrian asserted.

“It’s just that my lord was stronger.”

The lightsaber cuts through the air.

The light faded from Karindin’s eyes as he fell with his throat cut open.

Adrian took a deep breath and took a sip of Isabella’s special potion. The pain from the severe burns, both internally and externally, subsided significantly.

The communication device was activated.

“Carindin Lerhar. Mabel Lisoniers Sealer. Both dealt with.”

On the other side, Isabella answered.

───It’s over here too.

This ended the purge in just one night after Dahit’s defeat.

* * *

News had arrived that the Black Hour usurpation plan had been successful. Now all that was left was to conclude with Verden’s succession ceremony.

I devoted myself to meditation and recovery.

I looked at the memories of the countless years Dahit had lived through, but I was careful not to become swayed by Dahit’s emotions.

In that moment, after confirming all the memories for several weeks, the foundation expanded. As the Infinite Magical Road opened, something was embedded in the will.

“This is… … .”

Verden held out his hand.

Hwaruk.

Black flames rose.
