Episode 552 Retreat (2)

The arrogance and composure that had been lingering in Angelo’s face until just before towards Levana disappeared. Even the slight lingering ridicule was erased.

He immediately raised his staff, which was glowing with the color of the sky, and drew out his power.

Madou

A powerful lightning strike struck, piercing through Angelo’s magical circuits. Heat and pressure ripped through the air.

The large jewel that adorned the staff’s head and his two eyes were dyed in a bright blue light that flashed from moment to moment.

“Are you afraid that Black Hour will be defeated, so you went to the front line yourself again? Isn’t the weight of being called a Transcendentalist too light, Dark Moon!”

The voice echoes like thunder.

Angelo swung his staff.

A harmony of atmosphere and lightning───a pure and clear lightning strike.

It curved dizzily like a living snake, swallowing up the entire space where Verden was and crashing to the ground.

Kwakwakwakwakwang!

A destructive power that surpasses the 6th tier but does not reach the 7th tier.

Part of the forest at the impact point was reduced to pitch-black ash. Soon the light faded and the surrounding area became wide open.

Knock knock.

Verden, who was wearing a veil of destruction, lightly shook his robe.

“Why wouldn’t I step forward if it’s more efficient? It’s more rational than just standing there like that penny weighing on your heads.”

“You made a surprise attack while the Lord of the Tower was away… …!”

“The Bohemian Tower alone would have suffered great losses if it had to handle my Black Hour, so you gathered the Western Continent Towers to form an alliance, and now you’re talking about cowardice to me? It’s not even funny. And you should have said so.”

Verden whispered softly in an emotionless voice.

“Because your head is high.”

Triple casting.

The shadow of the unique meteorite fell over Angelo’s head. Avoiding a direct collision was no easy feat.

Because they’ll all explode the moment they come within range.

Just as Verden knows about Angelo’s history through Dahit’s memories, Angelo also understands Dahit’s magic.

Phew.

Angelo reflexively dove down and tried to put as much distance between himself as possible.

As I was performing an evasive maneuver that almost brushed the ground, a series of eerie explosions were heard from behind.

The flames of destruction swept through, turning the area into a wasteland.

‘The firepower that reaches me is equivalent to that of a single meteorite. I can easily block it.’

He turned around and stretched out his staff, putting the brakes on the flight.

“Haaaaaaaaaaaap!”

Kwakwakwakwakwakwakwakwa!

The lightning storm rotated strongly, protecting Angelo. Although he faltered due to the shock transmitted from outside, he stood firm.

Just as I was blocking all the black flames, I heard a noise approaching.

Verden forcibly calmed the violently rebellious storm. Ominous flames rose from his entire body.

The distance is close.

Angelo, with his eyes focused on the ground, fully manifested his magic from the front.

Kwaaaaang! Kwaaaaang! Kwarrrrrrrrring!

Darkness and pure light clashed against each other and exploded in the air several times. The surrounding environment was distorted by the aftershock.

Black Hour and the Magic Tower Alliance Everyone involved in magic, regardless of gender, was distracted by the fierce magic battle.

“Ugh.”

Angelo, who had been actively using his magical senses to defend against the consecutive attacks, groaned from the accumulated shock.

‘As expected, close combat with the Dark Moon is not cost-effective… …!’

If the magic war continues like this, death cannot be avoided.

I have to get it off somehow.

Angelo stimulates his heart with thunderbolts to draw out more magical power to power his magic.

Verden, who realized this, bestowed nets on both hands.

The moment the blow was struck, a wave of lightning and flames exploded. The residual lightning and black flames tore through the air, scorching the small mountain below.

Phew.

At the same time, Angelo, who had been distancing himself, regained his senses. Once again, the magical power was concentrated on each of their weapons.

Verden folded his hands and Angelo extended his staff.

A torrent of pitch-black rays and lightning, interlocking at each other’s center.

Kwakwakwakwa… … !!

Although the balance is somewhat even, Verden has the upper hand in terms of land.

Then the light burst out.

Angelo, swept by the aftermath, flew diagonally and crashed. He tried to stop it with both legs, but it did not stop, only leaving scars on the ground.

All the trees that hit my back were shattered and the grass was turned upside down. Soon, I hit a blunt rock and my speed finally died down.

“……ha.”

Angelo got up from the floor with his staff. He slowly raised his gaze while exhaling white breath.

Electricity shot out of his blue-tinted eyes.

The extreme point.

They were not chosen for their talents and were not given the opportunity to awaken, but they faced the limits of what humans can achieve.

Having reached the summit of Mount Tai, which cannot be climbed any further, he is the closest being to the high heavens.

The fact that it stands up to the power of the transcendent proves its greatness.

Verden, who had stopped in the sky, looked down at Angelo, who had fallen to the ground. It was the exact opposite of the previous composition.

“Now it’s right.”

“… … .”

Instead of saying anything, Angelo frowned. He thought about the means he had and tried to predict his next move.

However, the magic war that had entered a lull never resumed.

Verden lowered his altitude and gestured to the Black Hour members waiting behind him.

“Get ready to go back.”

“Ah… … Yes! Right now!”

Levana immediately took command of the second group and formed an orderly formation. The wounded had already been collected long ago.

Angelo frowned.

“Going back? Judging from the fact that they did the same thing on the front lines a few months ago, they must be quite wary of follow-up units.”

“Alert? Don’t overestimate yourself. At best, you’re just a nuisance. Angelo, I only dealt with you for a moment because you seemed to have forgotten how to behave toward me. And since you’ve already achieved your goal, it’s inefficient to waste more time here.”

… … achieved the goal?

Angelo felt something cool, but he had no idea what it was. He opened his mouth again, his questions growing more and more puzzling.

“Following the incident of breaking through the hierarchy, you suddenly launched a surprise attack on the strongholds of the Magic Tower Alliance. Dark Moon, what on earth are you aiming at?”

“You don’t need to know.”

Verden lowered his voice.

“If you want to die, then come at me.”

“Ugh… … !”

The highest elder of the Helion Tower reflexively stepped back.

It was instinct.

The last time I raided Black Hour’s stronghold, I had a fight with Dahit and was seriously injured… … If there had been no reinforcements that day, I might have died.

The eyes of all the magicians belonging to the alliance were all fixed on one place.

Given the hierarchy of the towers and their status within the tower, it was Angelo’s prerogative to decide whether or not to retreat.

The time for hesitation was short.

Angelo closed the magic door.

I quenched my thirst and senses that had been burning as they were.

“… … retreat.”

No one questioned it.

In this way, the Western Continent Magic Tower Alliance disappeared at a faster rate than when they had been pursuing the 2nd group.

* * *

Verden said, confirming that the hostile presence had completely disappeared.

“Angelo’s appearance was unexpected, but somehow the timing was right.”

“Thank you for saving me. Dark Moon, ah, no, sacred, dark… … oh my.”

Levana stuttered and was at a loss. She seemed confused as she took on the form of Dahit.

‘If Levana is mistaken, there is no reason for outsiders to suspect her.’

The Matap Union… … and the elder figures witnessed Dahit Westroel, so they would never doubt its existence.

This was part of the Western Continent Plan.

To be honest, it would have been nice if I could have taken care of Angelo, but there was another reason why I didn’t force myself to do so.

‘Angelo is the second-in-command of the Bohemian Tower in terms of military power.’

They may be armed with all sorts of magical weapons, but… … Separately from that, beings who have reached the end of the sixth level possess powers that are applicable even to transcendent beings.

Although the level and type of quasi-transcendence that Verden has reached are different, the total amount of power is similar.

Since each individual is different, we cannot rule out the possibility that some may have higher capabilities.

He is not as easy to catch as Elder Hiram, who is specialized in research rather than combat and has not even explored the magic.

‘Not to mention the magicians of the alliance, including the highest elders of the Helion Tower.’

If we fight until the end, saying we’re going to kill Angelo, not only will the damage to the 2nd platoon be severe, but the casualties, including the Union reinforcements, will be uncontrollable.

The idea of ​​having unrelated casualties in the quest for revenge against the Bohemian Tower is not something Verden wants.

The only goal is the annihilation of the current Bohemian Tower leadership.

‘And it is Adrian’s job to kill Angelo.’

───If I follow you, can I kill Baloch? With my own hands?

───No, Baloch is mine. But I promise. I will give you the heads of the elders.

As Verden promised in the Midlos Dominion, it will surely come true at the end of this road.

anyway.

Group 1 entered the magic city, Group 2 caught the eye on the front lines, and Verden discovered the unofficial laboratory.

Deception and surprise.

In just a few hours, the plan on the Western Continent was successfully completed.

‘The only one left is Isabella.’

Verden turned his head and looked east, where the central continent was.

Omar Boldrak is a true powerhouse, ranked 6th in the hierarchy.

She is of the same level as Isabella, and her magical power is higher than that of Melconi Bloud, the elder of the Magic Tower on Volcanic Island, whom Yunia captured in a one-on-one duel.

The wizards he has under his command are not easy opponents either.

But there is no need to worry.

The Berden forces had been in control of the battlefield from the beginning, and they had also prepared traps.

If there was no chance of winning, I wouldn’t have planned it.

* * *

Greenwood of the Central Continent.

The forest, which was known as a peaceful forest with few dangerous subspecies or alien species, still looked peaceful.

On the surface, of course.

Beyond the translucent dome of magic power, a fierce battlefield unfolded.

Kwaaaaang!

A magically created dark force strikes the edge of the lake. The gushing fresh water and water fly far away.

The area around the ruined hut had already turned into a swamp.

It’s noisy all around.

Fire, water, ice, air, earth… … Various attributes are tangled together with the enemy, aiming to take away the opponent’s life.

Phew.

Yunia, who had escaped the cold wind, took a step back and assessed the situation.

‘It’s definitely on a different level than normal wizards.’

Of the 14 wizards brought by Omar Boldrak, one is of the lower 6th rank, and the rest are widely distributed from the lower 4th rank to the upper 5th rank.

In terms of sheer numbers, it is a weak force compared to the Society that includes Yunia, Cain, and Aldernis.

But it can’t end easily.

It was a difference in practical experience.

Because they know how to minimize fatal risks and have mastered the art of overcoming disadvantageous situations by making up for their lack of strength with magical linkages.

Not only that, it is also desperate as life is at stake.

However, thanks to Black Hour studying the strategy of Bohemian Tower, he already knows the strategy.

‘……now!’

Yunia flew forward and stabbed the staff. A battle technique learned from the Sage of Power.

“Cough!”

The wizard of the Bohemian Tower, completely blinded by the square, vomited blood. It was because his ribs were crushed.

Next, he added a wave of gravity and struck horizontally. The wizard died instantly and fell into the lake and drowned.

A storm that shook the center of the battlefield began to blow. Everyone increased their resistance to avoid being dragged away.

Because of this, the senses were slowed down and magical calculations were hindered.

Phew!

Only Cain used the wind caused by Aldernis to increase his speed. The magic sword, Cretima, was engulfed in magic.

He captured the target exactly and shot out, striking down with a magical sword energy.

“Kkaaaah… … !”

The arm of a 5th-tier wizard was severed and blown away by the wind. His body, dragged into the storm with his concentration broken, was torn to pieces.

The gap is widening further.

However, based on the experience she gained while traveling with Verden, Yunia steeled herself not to let down her guard.

Eventually the storm died down.

That was when.

Someone flew in and slammed their hand into the ground in an insensitive manner to slow down.

Thud.

As I pulled my arm out, the broken fingers found their way back into place.

Yunia asked.

“Sister, can you help me?”

“no.”

Isabella laughed.

He spoke confidently, turning his shoulder, where the bone had just been shattered.

“I almost got it.”

Knock knock, knock!

Omar, floating low in the air, bowed his waist. His pupils shook.

A series of coughs, as if phlegm was stuck in his throat, rose up from the back of his throat.

Boom, boom.

Blood flowed from his facial features and fell into the lake.
