How a Genius in the Kingdom of Magic Lives - How a Genius in the Kingdom of Magic Lives chapter 161

Leo and Vivian continued down the underground grotto.

When we went down to the third basement floor, Vivian complained.

“How deep did you dig the tunnel? Is the land that good?”

Like fairies who prefer to live in the woods, she didn’t like this underground space very much.

I still don’t like the fact that the underground magic tower is the place where Bahelm is staying, but the place Leo called and moved to is also a place like this.

“Are human wizards like this? Do you have a habit of preferring underground as your skill level increases?”

“No way.”

Leo shrugged.

It just happened to be like this.

Prince Bahelm has an unusual architectural tendency, and the head of the Catsane Guild… .

‘Is it because he’s a necromancer?’

I don’t know the exact reason.

said Leo.

“If you’re complaining like that, it seems like you’ve relaxed now?”

“what… Because there is nothing dangerous.”

When Vivian first came here, she was nervous without knowing it.

The notoriety of the Casein Guild was such that even she, a fairy, had heard of it.

Being a guild leader in such a place, and being a 6th class necromancer, even the fairy queen had to be prepared.

However, when I opened the lid, it couldn’t be this easy.

The undead were disgusting in appearance, but all of them were shattered with just a few gestures from Leo.

Even the traps, which would have been dangerous in the first place, all stopped working after Leo gave him a few glances.

‘Because it’s frozen, there’s no destruction. I’ll just freeze it when the enemy comes, so be quiet.’

There were no traps activated, so I was able to move quietly.

“Are you completely optimized for dungeon exploration?”

“is it?”

“yes. Perhaps the head of the Catsane Guild down here is trembling by now? Obviously, my summons are being reverse-summoned, but I wonder why it is so quiet.”

“what… . It could be. But don’t be careless. Casein’s guild leader’s ability is not at all like this.”

Leo said this to alert Vivian’s loosened heart.

The strength of the Catsane guild leader he encountered as a different character was not at all like this.

An undead that fell in a few rounds of magic.

It wasn’t as powerful as a 6th class necromancer.

‘Death Knight, Lich, Bone Draconian, Dullahan, etc. Not a single one who could be called the high-ranking undead came out.’

Those guys also had strong magic resistance, so it wasn’t easy to kill them.

In order to deal with the prepared army of Necromancers in the first place, you need a party made up of knights and wizards of the same class.

Leo explained this step by step.

Vivian, who had been listening as she continued downstairs, nodded.

“Okay. I will be careful not to be caught off guard.”

“yes. That’s enough.”

“But do you know the other person well? Like the Necromancer’s abilities and the summons of the Catsane Guild Leader. Talk like you’ve never fought before.”

“… … .”

Leo was a bit taken aback by Vivian’s sudden words.

‘this. Was it too bad?’

He said too much information that he shouldn’t have known.

“uh… I saw it in a book.”

After saying that, Leo regretted a little.

No matter how innocent Vivian is for her age because she grew up in a fairy forest, I can’t believe such an excuse… .

“Oh, really. I heard that there are many books of all kinds in the library of the Roman Kingdom. After all, to have such skills at your age, you must read a lot.”

Vivian groaned and nodded.

Leo was happy, but felt a strange feeling.

‘… Are you stupid?’

* * *

Denaparte.

He was once called the worst necromancer.

He was one of the best necromancers in history, having dealt with several territories at the same time 100 years ago.

But 100 years ago, he felt.

– It is impossible to conquer the world with only the abilities of a Necromancer.

No matter how much they say they bring the dead back to life and lead them around, there is a limit to what an individual can do.

So, from then on, it went into the dark.

He formed an organization with criminals who would join his ideology.

That was the beginning of the Casein Guild.

– Damn it!

Denaparte opened his eyes at the wave of mana he felt not far away.

“Here you are.”

How many undead and traps he had laid in this underground dungeon.

However, it did not take long for the intruders to reach the lowest floor where they were located.

How strong are they really, did they not make a loud noise on their way here?

Perhaps, if the connection with the summoned summons hadn’t been lost, he might not have known of the intruder’s existence.

Denaparte rose from his seat.

The place he was in was a huge war.

When he got up from the chair that resembled the emperor’s throne, he saw the undead filling the battlefield.

It’s different from the mediocre guys who were filling the stomach.

The high-ranking undead created by Denaparte for a long time!

The air shuddered with the mighty momentum they radiated.

and soon

– Jerking away.

With the sound of footsteps, intruders appeared in the distance.

Denaparte stared at them with her eyes slightly narrowed.

There were only two people.

There were two of them, but their appearance was a bit peculiar.

There was one man and one woman, one with silver hair and silver eyes. The other had light blue hair and light blue eyes.

There aren’t that many people in this world who have the same eye and hair color, so it was hard to find.

However, Denaparte recognized his true identity at once.

A clan from the Kingdom of Rome with tremendous talents who have recently greatly interfered with their work.

“Was it you… . Prince Leo… .”

Denaparte bit his lip.

It was only when I saw him that I realized my mistake.

‘It’s not the 5th class… He was a 6th class mage… .’

he could feel

The pillar of willpower that rises vaguely but firmly behind Leo’s back.

I don’t know how he got to that level at his age… .

‘That stupid bastard. I heard that Prince Leo was injured… You brought completely wrong information.’

How dare you boast that you have dug the perfect trap to catch Prince Leo.

It was absurd.

Looking at Denaparte, who looked flustered, Leo smiled.

He looked completely unconcerned even in front of the high-ranking undead glaring at him.

“Finally, I get to see the face of the notorious Catsane Guildmaster. nice to meet.”

“… A guy who has just taken his toes is short-spoken. Didn’t your father, the king, teach you manners?”

“Rather, you should learn manners. If you met the royal family, you wouldn’t even be able to greet them politely. I don’t know what you did to get me to that age.”

“… … .”

Denaparte, who tried to provoke lightly but was rather counterattacked, was dumbfounded.

‘That guy. Are you royalty?’

Normally, if you were a member of the royal family, you would easily fall prey to such weak provocations.

But what about that flexible response?

Denaparte changed the subject.

“… ask only one Prince Leo.”

“What?”

“How the hell did you get here?”

Even if the trap failed, it did not leave a trace of itself.

What did he do to get to this hideout?

“Oh that?”

Leo shrugged.

“I made a lot of undead in the dungeon to catch me. But they were all undead that radiated your magical energy.”

“… By the way?”

“Haven’t you heard of the legend of King Karst?”

“… … ?”

Denaparte wondered what that meant.

Of course, he also knew the legend of Karst the Great.

The third great mage in history, and a mage who has risen to the 8th rank.

‘But what does that have to do with the situation… .’

Then, suddenly, a phrase passed through his head.

-King Karst was the best mage and tracker on the continent. No other race in the Abyss could escape his grasp.

“no way… Frost tracking?”

“I see you know?”

“Wasn’t that a story from a legend?”

“no way. It is absolutely true.”

Leo shrugged.

He said.

“But you. What are you doing from now on? Why don’t you fight and just open your mouth? Was the guild leader Casein originally a person who only talked?”

“… … .”

Denaparte was silent for a moment.

In fact he was dragging his time.

While Prince Leo’s skills were burdensome, there were even stronger fairies next to him. I could feel it instinctively even without saying it.

‘Countess Ermeri has to come soon… .’

I asked her for support, but it will take some time for her to come because of the distance.

Leo arrived through the traps so quickly that it was quite an awkward situation.

– Damn it!

Leo sighed, letting cold air escape from his hands.

“The Casein Guild is also fine. The guild leader got scared and ate it.”

“Keugh… dare!”

Denaparte’s face turned red in an instant.

No matter how unfavorable the situation was, I couldn’t let go of this insult.

“good. my army Trample the enemies!”

Denaparte took out a staff made of bone and stomped the floor.

A black aura spread out from the tip of the staff in concentric circles.

As soon as the aura was absorbed into the undead army, the spirit of the undead rose sharply.

-Gaaa!

– Big!!

The screaming cry of the dead!

The guys here were the best of Denaparte.

It meant that only high-ranking undead such as Death Knights, Liches, and Dyurahans were gathered.

“Go and wipe them out!”

At Denaparte’s instructions, the undead thud! thud! He stepped on the ground and started marching.

‘My army won’t be able to defeat those two, but at least it won’t be defeated easily.’

It’s enough to hold on and take out enough strength, and then counterattack when Countess Ermery arrives.

Denaparte thought it was the perfect plan.

That moment.

[Space Distortion]

Vivian swung her hands left and right.

A huge magic circle was briefly drawn beside her and then disappeared.

The magic circle twisted the space.

The distance between the undead and the two increased infinitely.

“What… !?”

Denaparte’s eyes widened.

A mage who controls space!

An undead army can only show its true value when it directly confronts its opponents, but if space is distorted in this way, nothing can be done.

[fairy walk]

– Dig!

At that moment, Leo appeared not far from Denaparte.

“As a necromancer, I just need to watch from a distance. Let’s stick together.”

Leo’s cold hand aimed at Denaparte.

[Extreme Ice – Cryogenic Beam]

– Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

A huge beam of ice that seemed to freeze the whole world shot out from his hand.
