My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well - My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well chapter 27
27 – Festivals and Colosseum (8)
In the waiting room for the Colosseum final, my opponent, Zenit Polgram, was there first.
He was inspecting his sharpened sword, and it matched his tough first impression.
Zenit saw me entering the waiting room and lightly raised her hand.
“nice to meet. Sacher Philip.”
I was a little taken aback by that natural greeting.
“Do you know me?”
“Is there anyone in the academy who doesn’t know you?”
“ah… ”
“Of course, I am also a regular who often bought your magic tools. I didn’t expect to meet you in the finals.”
For some reason, Zenit’s face seemed familiar.
Since he was blunt and didn’t say much, I didn’t remember him…
It must have been the face I saw on the way to and from the alchemy shop.
My expression immediately relaxed.
“You must have been a customer~ I didn’t know. I will serve you next time you come.”
“Not required.”
Zenit smiled and said, pointing to the refreshments on one side of the waiting room.
“If you want to drink tea, you can go over there. I’ve finished my maintenance, so I’ll leave you alone for a while. I hope the confrontation with you will be filled with romance and energy.”
After saying that, Zenit left the waiting room.
… Are you pretending to be cool?
I had that thought, but I quickly shook it off and checked my belongings for the upcoming finals.
In addition to summoning golems, mana stones with various uses and various magic tools that can be used in battle.
Even a potion that you might find useful in times of emergency.
The magic tools lined up on the table in the waiting room were each shining.
However, it was unreasonable to beat Zenit Polgram with this alone.
He was the best talent in the Faculty of Swordsmanship, on a different level from the opponents he had met so far.
I needed another weapon to defeat him.
Serureung-
A sword showing off a keen sense of humor emerged from within the magic bag.
“I didn’t know there would be a job to use a sword at the academy… .”
I was planning to use swordsmanship in this final stage.
Originally, I had no intention of writing it, but until then, I couldn’t write it even if I wanted to.
This is because the Academy Coliseum prohibits the use of the abilities of other faculties other than one’s own.
At first glance, it sounds like nonsense, but this is a more reasonable rule than you think.
The reason is because of the magic tools.
There are various types of magic tools produced by the Faculty of Alchemy, but among them there are magic tools that greatly affect battle.
For example, [Explosion Stone].
This guy’s destructive power is too strong if made well, and with just one use, you can instantly put your opponent incapacitated.
Let’s assume that a participant in the Faculty of Swords uses a combat magic tool like this to deal with the Faculty of Magic.
All magical effects are filled with magical tools, and if you use your own swordsmanship in close combat, the match is over.
A participant in the Faculty of Magic can never defeat a participant in the Faculty of Swordsmanship who has conquered both long and short distances.
Therefore, the breakwater to prevent the use of these magic tools, that is, the abuse of potions or stones, was the rule mentioned above.
However, this rule is also freely lifted from the quarterfinals of the finals.
This is because it is judged that if a person is skilled enough to reach the quarterfinals, even if he uses magic tools, he cannot overturn his superiority in skill.
Thanks to that, I, who was originally unable to use a sword, was able to use a sword starting in the 8th round.
Of course, I had no intention of using a sword throughout the tournament.
Because I know that if my swordsmanship skills become known to the public, it will be noisy again.
But that thought has changed.
I got greedy for the competition.
I wanted to win.
To face the formidable opponent, Zenit Polgram, he had to use a sword along with magic tools to defeat him.
* * *
-The senior of the 4th year swordsmanship department, the best talent in the academy, defeated all opponents with one sword! Zenit Polgram!
-Wow!!
– Zenit! Zenit! Zenit!
With the introduction of the commentator, cheers erupted from the crowd.
<Academy Coliseum> Final.
On that exciting stage, there was an interesting match-up that was one of the best matchups of all time.
The inside of the Academy Stadium was filled with scorching heat.
– The dark horse against this! A genius alchemist who handles golems freely, the best prospect in the academy! Sacher Philip!
-Wow!!
– Sacher! Sacher! Sacher!
The cheers bursting out at Sacher’s introduction were also formidable.
At first, Sacher, who was only recognized as a ‘celebrity in the newspaper’, became the strongest dark horse in the Colosseum.
And he was becoming the real protagonist of this Colosseum.
-The best final stage of the two players, I’ll see you right now!!
In line with the raucous commentator’s opening call, the swordsmanship professor who was in charge of the final referee gave his autograph.
It was the sign that the game was about to begin.
crash.
“Huh… !!”
And then.
As soon as the referee’s starting sign was visible, Zenit quickly rushed at Sacher without a chance to search.
His attack came without warning.
There were good reasons for this.
Sacher’s main weapon is a golem.
And to summon the golem, you must use the [Summon] magic using the [Advanced Mana Stone] as a medium.
It doesn’t take that long, but it’s only natural that the summoning itself takes some time.
Zenit, who had already thoroughly analyzed their opponents in the finals, had no reason to concede such time to Sacher.
“It’s over, Sacher Philip… !!”
The moment Zenit’s sword touches Sacher’s shoulder, it’s an instant situation.
That moment.
Sacher’s sword, which had been hidden, appeared.
visor-
The two swords collided briefly and a power struggle ensued.
“what?!”
-ah! what is this. Sacher, you suddenly drew your sword!
Zenit’s voice full of bewilderment overlapped with the commentator’s voice.
Although Zenit’s face was stained with absurdity, he couldn’t relax.
The power I feel from the clashing sword…
Because it wasn’t something that could be ignored.
‘Philip family… !!’
And then I remembered one thing I had forgotten.
He had not only the name Sacher, but also the surname Philip.
Viscount Philip.
The ‘Imperial Sword’, which is called the two largest knight families of the Empire along with its own family, Count Polgram.
Sacher became famous for his creative magic tools and golems, so he was forgotten for a while, but he was still a direct descendant of a knight family.
‘But how?’
Although he is said to be a descendant of a knight family, he is a student at the Faculty of Alchemy who was gifted with alchemy.
He probably received swordsmanship training from his family, but in the end, that’s all.
There was obviously a limit to nurturing swordsmanship only through training without talent.
However, in the eyes of Zenit, who had been practicing swordsmanship for a long time, Sacher’s swordsmanship was by no means shallow.
He didn’t even have time to hurt his pride at the fact that the alchemist was fighting him with swordsmanship, and he started fighting Sachere with all his might.
chin- chin-
From then on, it was ecstasy.
strength.
speed.
mana.
Two swordsmanships that none of the three are pushed back.
They were fighting fiercely as if they were going to eat each other.
– What an unexpected sight! Sacher from the Faculty of Alchemy is fighting against Zenit with swordsmanship, not alchemy!
chin- chin- chin- chin-
The frequency of the swords colliding became invisible to the naked eye.
It was not a figurative expression.
The two swords, Zenit and Sachere, were actually speeding up to the point where it was indistinguishable to the eyes of ordinary people.
‘crazy… They even know how to use the speedy sword?’
Even as the swords collided, Zenit was shocked.
[Sword of Speed].
It is a magical sword most often used by the warriors of the swordsmanship department, especially those who focus on speed.
It was an upward swordsmanship that increased the smoothness of swordsmanship to the extreme with the injected magical power, and improved physical speed by surrendering to the faster swordsmanship.
Along with the [Sword of Faheu], it was also a high-difficulty magical sword that could only be learned by a senior in the Faculty of Swordsmanship.
“Swordsmanship talent!”
The moment the two swords fell for a moment, Zenit shouted.
It was the face that finally realized something.
Swordsmanship talent.
Other than that, there was no other way to explain the results of the moment.
The [Sword of Speed] is not a magic sword that can be used just by handling the sword.
It was a magical sword that could only be effective if a hero with swordsmanship had to polish it for a long time.
Sacher Philip was not just an ordinary knight who learned the sword from his family.
Possessing both alchemy and swordsmanship, he was the owner of a revenge talent.
‘So this level of swordsmanship… !’
In the history of the continent, there were quite a few people with the talent of multiple warriors, but there was no warrior who developed both talents to the top level.
Even reaching the top spot in one area is an unknown area, much less cultivating two talents at the same time was an act of suicide.
But he is now proving that it is possible.
With the fusion of alchemy and swordsmanship, the two talents.
It felt like a puzzle that had been broken was put together at once.
But a fleeting moment.
As if waiting for that moment, Sacher quickly took out the magic stone from the magic bag.
[Advanced Mana Stone].
That medium meant only one thing in this Colosseum.
“sh*t… !”
Zenit groaned and straightened the sword.
In a moment, he gave his opponent some leeway.
However, the situation was already unfolding.
Geoooooo-!!
A huge golem appeared that filled one side of the arena.
It was the [Vita Taker] who made the finalists tremble in fear.
Sacher did not stop at that and quickly used the [Safe Cage].
It was to defend his own body, which would become defenseless with Golem Control.
Frighteningly fast, using magic tools like knives.
Seeing that, Zenit slightly bit her lip.
I’ve never been careless.
Watching the matches, I always thought it was a difficult opponent.
If I were to meet him in the finals, I ran a lot of simulations to figure out how to deal with him.
So I threw away my pride and rushed at the start of the game.
To not give even a hint of room.
But Sacher Philip.
As always, he moved beyond expectations.
Swordsmanship was first brought out after the Colosseum started.
Zenit’s head was jumbled up with swordsmanship, and then the magic sword struck one after another.
Zenit takes advantage of a moment of inattention at that absurd sight and pulls out his main weapon, the golem.
In addition, the use of magic tools to block variables.
In Sacher’s movement, which was consumed to come this far,
There was not a single error.
Geoooooo-!!
[Vita Taker] showed off his unique quick movements and rushed at Zenit.
‘still… ‘
Calmly countering the golem’s attack, Zenit thought.
still have an advantage.
Although Zenit had already poured a lot of energy into fighting Sacher, it was not enough to be pushed back by the golem, which was only a summoned beast.
If it continues like this, the golem will soon be destroyed by its own sword.
Even just summoning a golem once consumes a lot of mana, and the mana and mental strength required to maintain it is not normal.
If you take the fight against the golem to your advantage, the Sacher will surely run out of magic power.
And it was easy to deal with him in a state where his magic power was running low.
It was noisy, but not to the point of being unbeatable.
I was taken aback, but not to the point of losing my composure.
Zenit Polgram thought so.
… I definitely thought so.
“100 million?!”
In the middle of dealing with the golem, until a magic bullet flew in and stuck in his body.
[Magic Gunner]
-Type: Special
-Producer: Sacher Philippe
-A special magic tool that can eject bullets of a certain size made of magic power. The ejected magic bullets can inflict intense blows on the target, and have the property of exploding depending on the situation. If you pull the trigger after injecting magic into the storage space, it is used immediately, and after use, the magic tool causes an intense recoil. Depending on the sensitivity of the magic injector and the purity of magic, different performance can be achieved.
I turned my head and looked at Sacher,
Before he knew it, he was holding a long, grotesque weapon.
“Seed… foot! Do it in moderation!”
In this unusual battle, Zenit suddenly wanted to cry.
