Episode 176: The Origin (2)

“Really… a spirit?”

Lilia tilted her head and glanced at Galen’s left shoulder, where a cat-shaped water spirit was standing.

As far as she knew, the spirits that Galen originally had were ‘perfect’ ones, and the ones that he could temporarily create by gaining new enlightenment were ‘imperfect’ ones.

When you suddenly say that this is really true, it’s hard to understand.

“I’ll explain it to you later. After I finish it.”

Galen raised his left hand and aimed at the sky, whispering.

The place where the Miracle of Selection temporarily blocked the spirit of Atma was replaced by magic.

Kwakwakwakwakwa!

It is true that I used up almost all my magical power to create the golden fireball in my right hand.

The only magical power that was depleted was the magical power of life. There was still plenty of power left for other magical powers such as water manipulation, vanity flames, and spiral circulation.

Anyway, the spirit creation and magic sound field, which are the basis of life’s magic power, were not originally used to block the spirit of Atma, so there was no difference at all from before.

After creating a state of antagonism like that again.

Galen lightly clenched his right hand. The golden ball of fire in his palm fluttered and rose above Galen’s fingers as if avoiding it, and then Galen lightly snapped his fingers.

The golden fireball that floated up and flew slowly landed gently on Lilia’s right hand.

“oh.”

Contrary to its appearance, which was like a small, compressed sun, it wasn’t hot at all. All I could feel was a pleasantly warm warmth.

The flowing water eventually flowed down and transformed into a bracelet, wrapping itself around her wrist.

“This is… … ?”

“The spirit of life… let’s call it that, for now. In the third method I mentioned earlier, this guy will take my place.”

“Huh? Is that okay?”

“Because that’s what he was made for.”

Galen added to Lilia, who was looking at the golden bracelet again.

“I don’t know if I can hit the perfect moment, but I think Lilia will be able to do that.”

“Okay. I’ll try it!”

Lilia spoke briskly. Instead of having unnecessary doubts, she took Galen’s words as a given and anticipated the development of events. A decent picture was drawn.

The sight of Lilia, who was taking deep breaths and waiting for an opportunity, suddenly disappeared as if it had disappeared.

Shhh!

Skewers made of shadow blocked her path as she charged forward like a ray of light.

I wasn’t flustered the first time I experienced it, so how much more so now that it wasn’t my first time? Lilia swung her sword with all her might.

Pavababababak!

The pitch-black weapons shattered without mercy. Dozens of lines of light were drawn that were so destructive that they almost crushed rather than cut, cutting through the darkness.

Meanwhile, Lilia’s five senses were focused solely on Atma.

It was as expected. When she approached at super speed, melting all obstacles with the miracle of selection, she disappeared in an instant, but when her ankles are held back even a little, she thinks she has some leeway, so she moves slowly.

Of course, it wasn’t a huge difference that would last a few seconds.

Wouldn’t this be enough time to wait for the ‘right moment’?

And Lilia’s expectations were exactly met.

Aaaah …

It was definitely not a voice, but a strange sound closer to the sound of the wind that can sometimes be heard in unique terrain.

It flowed from the bracelet wrapped around Lilia’s right hand, or rather her wrist, as she swung the sword of light.

The skewers of shadow that had been pouring down like crazy, whether they would break away or not, stopped unnaturally.

“what?”

Almost at the same time, Atma’s voice was heard, feeling something was off.

Bullfight!

Lilia, who was the first to realize what was happening, was already charging forward with the Miracle of Selection.

Whether it was a shadow that was lying around stupidly or a shadow that was moving briskly, it was all the same in the face of the miracle of selection, so up until this point it was the same as before.

The crucial difference from before was that Atma did not leap through space and disappear, but rather remained motionless in place.

Lilia saw that the darkness that had been covering Atma like a very, very thick body armor was rippling very unstably.

This makes it certain.

The golden bracelet, which was like the spirit of life or something, copied the magic of the Siren that Galen used to subdue the Nightmare in the Magic Warehouse. It really did Galen’s job.

Elementalists are a type of magician, and magicians are over the moment they are allowed access. Except for very special cases like earth elves or Galen who learned their magic.

Atma, who has lost the annoying ability to leap through space, has no way to respond at this distance.

Lilia, who had closed the distance in an instant, swung her light sword. The light sword dug into the rippling armor of darkness.

That was the moment.

Flash!

A strange feeling of light behind your back. A fierce warning sent by your innate senses.

“reel-”

Just as Galen’s urgent voice was about to reach her ears.

It’s so frustrating!

A lightning bolt struck Lilia.

* * *

Even if you expand your scope to the entire world, there is probably no wizard who knows his abilities as well as Galen.

This is because the status window is perfectly compensated, at least theoretically.

When you learn a new magic, when an existing magic evolves, when you level up, when you gain enlightenment, etc., in any case, the appropriate knowledge is automatically organized and engraved in your head.

That is why Galen had a clear understanding of the abilities of the new spirits created by the newly awakened world.

Although it has many characteristics that are far more evolved than existing spirits, enough to warrant being called a ‘real spirit’, if I had to pick the ability that stands out the most at this moment –

‘The fact that I can use the same magic as you.’

Of course, that doesn’t mean that this one guy can use ‘all’ of Galen’s magic.

As it is the spirit of ‘life’, it is limited to magic that uses the magic power of life. Currently, it is the creation of spirits and the translation of demonic sounds.

The former is a bit funny since it’s like a spirit creating another spirit, but it’s not important right now. The latter is the key. It can stop the function of Nightmare.

Galen could step forward himself, but he is a bit far away and is busy dealing with the spirit of Atma.

If you attach the Spirit of Life to Lilia and shoot magic from close range with good timing, wouldn’t it work as a secret move that perfectly catches the opponent off guard?

Even without a detailed explanation, Lilia did exactly what Galen wanted, and the situation unfolded exactly as Galen expected.

Aaaah …

The magical sound of the life spirit singing breaks down the nightmare.

Even the slightest hesitation would be like a huge gap for Lilia, but since she’s half-dead and just sitting there, it’s like eating cold porridge.

As time passed slowly, Galen was happily glancing over at Lilia as she was about to cut down the Nightmare Armor.

Flash!

Galen frowned slightly at the sudden, blindingly bright light, then looked shocked.

The spirit of Atma changed its attributes again. If that were the only thing, it wouldn’t be a big deal since it had been like that all along.

Instead of the fire, cold, wind, and earth that had been shown countless times before… lightning suddenly appeared.

In the blink of an eye, Atma’s spirit turned into a thunderbird and ran at the speed of lightning.

Towards the side, not down, towards Lilia, not Galen.

“Lilia!”

When Galen’s terrified voice came out of his mouth, the scorpion had already struck Lilia.

It’s so frustrating!

A huge lightning bolt flashes, brightening the support in an instant.

The life spirit that was connected to one side of Galen’s consciousness cried out in pain. To Galen, it sounded like Lilia’s scream.

Lilia, unable to withstand the strong voltage, is thrown back.

Galen squeezed out every bit of life magic he had left.

[Life: Spirit: Grant]

[Spirit Creation]

The wind spirit created by the blow flew immediately to Lilia.

[Pitch Black: Shadow: Manipulation]

[Dark Fairy Tale]

Immediately afterwards, Galen’s body was also consumed by darkness and disappeared.

Galen reappeared behind the wind spirit that was supporting Lilia’s body like a cushion. He quickly supported Lilia as she fell gently, her speed slowing down.

“are you okay?”

“It’s okay!”

Lilia answered bravely with her slightly paralyzed mouth. Thankfully, she wasn’t seriously injured and was able to hold herself up, although she still had some convulsions.

To be exact, he was injured, but he was being treated in real time. The robe had become a rag, and the exposed flesh was soaked in blood.

“I blocked it roughly. It was a little late, so I got hurt a little, but it was just a little bit of skin.”

“It wasn’t that bad! I’m sorry. I should have held on to the spirit—”

“Hey, I’m telling you, it’s really okay. It seems like Atma had his own secret weapon. How can we stop him from doing something so reckless?”

Lilia smiled brightly, trying to comfort Galen who was feeling guilty.

Her words weren’t wrong either.

Atma’s attack was not a successful surprise attack, but rather closer to a suicide attack.

I saw that the moment the Whi-Gwang-Geom was about to split the Knightmare’s armor, I was struck by the Brain Bird without thinking.

Even the Nightmares who were right next to Lilia were swept away by the lightning.

The knights that had been burned to a crisp fell off, and Artma, with a look of defeat on her face, appeared inside.

“What the… damn it… … .”

The side she was clutching was soaked in blood. In that short time, Lilia’s light sword had cut through the Nightmare’s armor and stabbed Atma inside.

If I hadn’t hastily blown Lilia away with the talisman, the sword would have passed through my intestines.

But since I didn’t have enough time to aim accurately, the Nightmares flew away with me, so it was all the same in one way or another.

“Don’t worry, I’ll pay you back in kind!”

“Are you going to keep fighting?”

“I told you, getting hurt like this is nothing. You fought an orc wizard when you were hurt much worse than this, brother.”

“It was because I had to fight back then… Okay. I will continue to assist you.”

“yes!”

Regardless of my feelings of regret, it is not good to blindly protect Lilia, who is expressing such a strong will to fight. She is not a child, but an equal to Galen.

Lilia drew her new glowing sword and glared at Atma, while Galen also regrouped his magic.

“What… what are you talking about?”

Meanwhile, Atma, who had lost the lifeline he had been relying on in an instant, was not showing the same confidence as before. His voice was already shaking slightly.

“Nightmare is having a seizure? Are you using some kind of evil magic that involves demons?”

“No matter how evil someone is, would they only do it if they had an evil spirit attached to them?”

Lilia asked back rudely. Atma, who was speechless for a moment because it was such an obvious question, eventually clenched her teeth.

“Not yet, not yet! Do you think it will end like this?”

“Yeah, it’s not over. Not yet. I don’t know how much longer it will take.”

“Either way,” Galen said calmly.

“If you had the ability to run away, you should have run away earlier, or at least left the support and caused trouble within the main house, it would have been quite annoying.”

“That’s no use anymore.”

The person who received the message was neither Lilia, Michael, nor Atma.

Atma’s expression became even more distorted as he looked back.

Anton, holding a sword, was slowly walking out from between the forests that surrounded the support like a fence.

“Sorry I’m late. It took some time to clean up.”

“Organization?”

“There’s no way you’ll be so crowded that you won’t be able to get out even if you go. The sponsors saw that the commotion was going on, so they organized the traffic in advance.”

Anton, who had moved immediately after seeing the first explosion that Galen had set off as he rushed to the support, was on his way back after subduing the Spirius family with the power of the Selkef diocese.

Since all the major powers of the family were gathered to capture Michael, there was no one left who had the courage to oppose the Archbishop himself. Ironically, this sloppy state of affairs aroused Anton’s suspicions even more.

“It is possible that the Spirius family may be the victims… … .”

“I’ll tell you a hundred times. What have these guys done? From cavalry to demons, they’re a bunch of ghost stories.”

Michael said, gritting his teeth. Anton nodded as if he had guessed it. His cold gaze turned to Atma.

“You look like you can’t do anything, Atma. Now that you have no one to help you, why don’t you just surrender?”

“What if I surrender?”

“I will cut off your head without any special torture.”

“This is why you can’t communicate with fanatics.”

Atma sneered. Realizing that her escape route was completely blocked, her fear disappeared, leaving only the jewel’s pride.

“Come and see. I won’t be so easily defeated.”

“Where are you trying to sneakily change your partner?”

Galen scolded him.

“You have to keep playing with us.”

“Young people dare!”

“I guess you’ve already forgotten the memory of your pathetic escape just a moment ago. Well, it doesn’t matter. Are you ready, Lilia?”

“Yes! Shall we go right away?”

Lilia asked, raising her whirling sword. Galen answered with a slight nod.

at the same time.

Aaaah …

The spirit of life sang a magical sound that had never been used before by the spirit of Atma.

The movement of the brain surrounding Atma began to sway.

“What, what is it?”

“I told you. I am a better spirit master.”

Galen snickered as he looked at the bewildered Atma.

“I take the title.”
