I Became the Dark Wizard Who Rules Over the Heroines - Chapter 74



74 – Flame-1

“It’s a meteor! Run!”

There was room for thought. Something dangerous was happening.

‘Is it Kelin? No, that can’t be possible…’

She, too, could use black magic, but most of it was insidious, small-scale black magic used in plots, or small-scale magic used to strengthen her body or in combat.

‘I’m not the type of person who would use Meteor.’

It’s not a real meteor falling. However, that magic was ‘a little less’ dangerous than that.

It is a magic that uses demon energy as fuel to create a sticky, explosive flame in the air and drop it.

‘If an explosion occurs in a place like this, civilian casualties will occur…’

People must have woken up, and a tearing scream began to be heard from the area where Meteor fell.

“Uh, isn’t it dangerous?”

“I can’t help it!”

It is a magic that cannot be handled unless you are a warlock of a certain level.

‘If you go in now, you might be suspicious…’

Officially, there are very few warlocks in Cordoba.

People who heard the information that Meteor fell here will first suspect me.

‘It’s a bit far from where Meteor fell, but…’

If you were a warlock who could use that in the first place, there would be no distance limitations.

You have to move first. We must not ignore this situation.

‘I never thought he would move so openly… No, no. This is not a dangerous behavior for them.’

I plan to suck up an appropriate level of ‘evil’ through terrorism and turn that arrow towards myself.

“There, stop!”

After seeing the Holy Knights of the Inquisition, I realized that my expectations were correct.

“It’s urgent! A terrorist attack has just occurred! We need to go quickly and find out who did this-“

“You have been identified as an important suspect in that terrorist attack. Raise your hands and meekly accept arrest.”

Paladins fully prepared to fight, equipped with armor and anti-dark magic defenses.

Paladins still have special powers. This is especially true if you are a Holy Knight of the Heresy Inquisition.

Those who could strengthen their bodies with divine power, heal others, and fight proudly against demonic energy were much more difficult to train than ordinary knights, and they were not as easy to gather.

“…Who gave you permission to do this?”

Those people are looking for me, fully prepared, as if they are waiting for a terrorist attack to occur.

“Of course… I am planning to arrest you under orders from Lord Wilhelm, the sword of the Inquisition.”

“I don’t think the lord of this city would have allowed it.”

“There were quite a few warlocks like you who tried to bide their time with subtle words. And most of them died.”

Neither I nor they had any intention of continuing the conversation any longer.

“If you don’t want to get arrested… Die!”

“Where!”

Not all of these may be related to Kazot. However, Wilhelm, who had the authority to command them, had a clear connection with Kazott.

‘Wow, you’re so impatient…’ ‘ !’

Of course, it wasn’t that I couldn’t understand their defensive attitude.

Most warlocks were in collusion with corrupt nobles, and if you were to consider each legal action, you might have missed a warlock who committed a terrible crime.

Even when the player was carrying out the mission ‘Exterminate the Warlock’ with the party, they preferred to first kill the Warlock and then look for evidence.

‘Still, at times like this…!’

There was no time to fight them right now.

Many people were gathered in one place, but each and every one of them was a warrior who was difficult to find. Even if you meet them one-on-one, you cannot be sure that you will be able to deal with them in an instant.

“Run!”

I held Claire in my arms and ran to the other side of Meteor.

Spread the magic energy. It was just a job to cover their eyes, but now they had no choice but to do it.

“Olivia. I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. Run away as much as you can, and if you have no choice, fight. If you think it’s dangerous, just surrender! I won’t kill you right away!”

Olivia seemed to understand what I meant and nodded her head calmly.

Time is important now. I couldn’t move them with them on my tail.

“I understand. No…”

Olivia’s golden hair was swaying beautifully.

“I understand, my lord. May I ask you a question?”

“What?”

“It doesn’t matter if I take them down, right?”

Confident and firm.

Olivia probably knows too. Paladins are incredibly strong. Even if she were a Holy Knight who followed Wilhelm, her power could never be ignored.

Maybe one or two, but fighting eight paladins is something you can’t guarantee your life with.

But she was smiling.

“Well, those friends may be doing this with good intentions, so it’s okay to just kill them… But your life is the most important. If it’s necessary, don’t hesitate.”

“No, such vague words. Isn’t it better to be concise?”

Eclair laughed and amplified the magical energy contained in her body.

Presence grows. To the extent that anyone who looks at it can’t help but think, ‘There is a warlock here.’

“Good luck!”

“Thank you!”

I came to a sudden stop, suppressed my demonic energy as much as possible, and turned around and ran.

Meteor fell, towards my real battlefield.

/////

The flame is burning.

“Ah, ah…”

Lilian’s body was surprisingly intact.

The artifact Wade had given me was activated, saying, ‘Something dangerous might happen, so make sure you carry it with you.’ That was protecting her her body her

A shield full of magical energy that is activated in life-threatening situations.

And ironically, it was also protecting Kellin’s body

But that object could not even protect her spirit

“Wade gave me… Protective gear? That’s good. I wasn’t able to bring it because I didn’t have enough space… “

Kellyn realized that she had been arrogant.

It was too urgent. She didn’t think it was enough to block Meteor’s fire coming from the front, and she was busy taking the wine bottle he gave her.

“If you wait… Ugh, Wade will come. So, just wait a little longer until then-“

Kelin realized that she had been talking to herself.

Lilian’s ears were not open. His eyes were seeing nothing but the fire before him.

His mind returned to the past, not the present.

“No… No…”

It’s night, but it’s bright.

A mass of boiling flames is burning everything in the world.

The overwhelming smell and the fire mixed with demonic energy are annihilating the whole world.

Just a handful of ashes, rising smoke.

Life and civilization are being changed by a single sin.

“No. This is…”

It’s scary.

The deaths of my colleagues come to mind. It reminds me of the countless elves who died to protect her when she was not yet an elf capable of doing her part.

Her life would have been saved, but it would have been better if she had been hit directly by that meteor and died. She couldn’t help but think that if she had fallen, she wouldn’t have had to go through this pain.

“I don’t want to, stop, stop…”

Even when you close your eyes, light penetrates your eyelids.

Even if you put your head down on the ground, the burning smell is carried through the air.

Even as she holds her breath, the heat from the earth penetrates her heart.

Her Her memories Her of her, which she had never wanted to relive throughout her life, a terrible trauma relive Lilian’s her past her her her. She places her soul her in her her past her her her.

“Ah, ah…”

She had no choice but to stop. She couldn’t do anything but stand there, shedding endless tears.

And here, there was no fellow elf to drag her by the hand and help her escape out of the forest.

“Please, no. It’s all just a dream-“

“Wake up!”

Someone hit her hard on the back

“Uh… Huh?”

“Damn, it’s hell…”

Wade was staring at that hell, biting her lips tightly.

From noble mtl dot come

“Big!”

Wade clenched her fists. At the same time, his harmless magical energy spread around.

If it were a direct battle of power with Katarin, he could easily overpower him with just the remnants of his magic.

Nevertheless, the flames remained.

Even if the mysterious power called Magi disappears, the flames and temperature it created do not disappear. A burning tree does not disappear.

“The way to put out the fire… Could be to cut off all oxygen, but that would just kill everyone…”

Wade took a deep breath and immediately gave instructions.

“Claire. Cast wide-area healing! Just keep the range wide enough, and pour out your life force anyway!”

“Well, if you do it now…”

“Do it first! And then, locate the survivors! I’ll save them!”

“Okay!”

Lilian vaguely came to his senses

‘…Ah.’

If she is really afraid of this pain, the thing to do is not to sit back and wait for her to die.

Lilian has become much stronger than she was in the past. Just this amount of fire is not enough to tie up her nimble feet.

Must be saved. You have to survive. We need to reduce the number of people who are suffering from burning pain all over their body.

“I’ll help!”

“Good!”

The rescue operation has begun. Once Claire identified the location of the survivor using the sky-blue flames created by magic, Wade immediately lifted the trees and flames around them into the air.

“Big!”

And then, Lilian ran to the survivor. Breaking through the fire, overcoming fear.

“Are you okay?”

“Ah, ah…”

Progress wasn’t fast, but there were people who could be saved.

‘You can do it. You can do it. You can-‘

As Lilian ran like that, an arrow got stuck at his feet

A very familiar and familiar elf arrow.
