Episode 197 The King’s Tomb (8)

Ivan’s mind, which had been filled with the arrogance of thinking, ‘Things are messed up, but we can fix it all if we beat him up,’ was quickly becoming a mess.

Gray’s death itself wasn’t really anything to worry about, honestly.

Since he’s just a cockroach-like creature anyway, even if his clone dies, a new clone will just appear from somewhere, so the expedition team doesn’t have to worry about him the most.

The problem is Gray’s cause of death.

The problem was that he could vaguely sense the flow of magical power but could not accurately perceive it, but the bigger problem was that Galen had the ability to do so.

“What the… what the… … .”

Didn’t you say that guy was definitely a water-type gem wizard?

In fact, he was holding Gray and his party back perfectly with water magic.

If water is the main magic, then other types of magic should naturally be auxiliary.

But the assistant’s earth magic is not only higher than Davia’s, but it can even block his own magic? Even if lightning doesn’t go well with earth, he’s a jewel?

And it didn’t stop there, he blocked Gray and his group with water, and at the same time blocked his magic with the ground, and at the same time he even used some third magic to cut Gray’s neck?

“What kind of tricks are you using!”

A mixture of distrust, bewilderment, fear, jealousy, and a thousand other emotions bewitched Ivan, and the result was anger towards Galen, who had caused such feelings.

The seething magical power crackled and turned into lightning, writhing nervously.

Kkwarrrrrrrr!

Galen, on the other hand, was calm. There was no reason not to be calm when things were not going as expected.

In the midst of the time that had slowed down significantly due to the accident, he went through the response procedures one by one.

‘If it was a magic that couldn’t be dealt with at all, lightning magic would have been considered invincible. But that’s not the case, right?’

The speed of the thunderbolt was certainly the greatest of all the magic Galen knew.

However, this only refers to the speed at which the ‘complete magic flies’.

The process of Ivan’s magic power creating electricity, weaving it into shapes, and firing it – in short, the process of ‘perfecting the magic’ – took time.

Of course, since Ivan was a jewel wizard, the task was completed in an instant, but it wasn’t to the extent that lightning struck him in the blink of an eye and he couldn’t even react.

‘If it were another wizard, there might be cases where they would react but be unfairly pushed back due to the lack of countermeasures.’

This was not the case for Galen.

I had already thought of several ways to deal with the lightning strike since I heard that the Gem Wizard was coming to the ruins.

Even though I came here, I learned something extra.

[Earth: Vibration: Manipulation]

[Pseudo-reflux]

As the electrical discharge phenomenon occurred in front of Ivan, a mud wall suddenly rose up in front of Galen like a fortress.

[Earth: Fixed: Granted]

[Territorial Advance]

As the lightning bolts that had formed were entangled with each other and formed the shape of a spear, the magic power of the earth embedded in the mud wall changed its nature. The defensive power of the clay doll, which was extremely hard, was also embedded in the mud wall.

[Vanity: Loss: Weakness]

[Death Mist]

When the thunderbolt in the shape of a spear was finally fired, the magic of the earth and the magic of nothingness that had been drawn up at the same time had already dispersed like fog and hidden behind the earthen wall.

To the eyes of an ordinary person who had no idea what was happening, it just seemed like lightning flashed by in an instant and then the ground rose up to block it.

Kukwaaaaang!

The mud wall that collided with the lightning was shattered into pieces. The enormous force concentrated at one point was so strong that it forcibly destroyed the mud wall that was originally impervious to electricity and extremely strong.

But that’s it.

The lightning strike, which had expended a great deal of energy destroying the territorial advance, was unable to penetrate the death cloud it immediately encountered and collapsed.

Kwarrrrrr! Kwarrrrrr!

Ivan, who was even more enraged, worked even harder to create more lightning bolts, but this time they flew in rapid succession.

The fact that Ivan put in the effort means that Galen was also given time to put in the effort.

Kookwaaaaang! Kookwaaaaang!

The double wall of earth and nothingness blocked the lightning cleanly this time as well. It had no effect except for the useless part that the sand that made up the wall melted and stuck.

“I told you not to.”

Galen chuckled.

The Gem Wizard has an advantage over the Gold Wizard in all basic aspects, including total magical power, recovery amount, magical power, and casting speed.

But what makes the crucial difference is the revised world.

The reason why the expression ‘greater than gold’ exists when explaining the strength of evil spirits is because no matter how simply the specs are higher than gold, they can never be compared to jewels.

In short, Ivan, who did not use the Revised World, was no different from a warrior who did not use the Ultimate or a priest who did not use the Selection. Not the true form of a jewel, but just gold with increased strength.

At that level, even a combination of golden-peaked earth magic and void magic would be enough to withstand it. Territorial Advance and Death Mist were magics that were good for defense and weakening, respectively.

‘Actually, I don’t know Ivan’s level exactly, so I thought it might be a little bit difficult.’

Anyway, Galen’s prediction was correct, and Ivan ended up wasting his energy several times.

The remaining warriors were swept away helplessly.

It’s already a hassle with just the water arrows flying from the front, so how could they have time to worry about Tenebrae hiding in the rear?

The pitch-black environment, with the only light coming from the ash-colored monster’s flames, Lilia’s glare, and Ivan’s lightning, was like Tenebrae’s playground.

Even Tenebrae was stronger than the individual warriors. The dark spirits that copied Galen’s dark magic were the pinnacle of gold, and the warriors were slightly flawed gold.

Crunch!

A shadow blade that came out from nowhere sliced ​​off the arm that was holding the magic weapon.

“Kwaaah!”

In addition to the pain of losing your arm, you suddenly lose strength and feel helpless as you lose your horseman.

Saaaaak!

The surrounding darkness suddenly gained life and clung to the warrior’s entire body. It was a swamp that the warrior’s power, which had returned to its original silver, could not shake off.

“Creak creak… … .”

The warrior, whose whole body was dyed black and fell, struggled in agony, then fell limp and soon disappeared.

In fact, it was just a case of making them faint and wrapping them in darkness and putting them in a corner, but if you didn’t know, it would only look like they were being eaten by darkness and disappearing, so it was terrifying in itself.

“Ugh, euaaaah!”

Since Gray died first, there was no one to take care of his mental health.

The warrior whose hands and feet were dizzy was struck by water arrows and fell, and the warrior who barely managed to come to his senses was beaten to death by Tenebrae regardless.

It wasn’t long before six prisoners were found unconscious, their arms either severed or crushed, holding the cavalry.

With only a few minutes left in the full-scale battle, Ivan was forced to make a decision.

“…Just watch the floor.”

“yes yes?”

Davia, whose mind was broken again after seeing the warriors dying one by one before they could properly interfere with anyone, asked dumbfoundedly. Ivan, whose forehead had a vein bulging out, shouted.

“Just guard the floor! If he tries to do something with earth magic, you’re just going to interfere! Can’t you do it? Should I make it so he can’t do it forever?”

“Oh, I understand!”

Davia was startled and her spirits rose. In fact, she still had no confidence, but if she showed it, she would be the one to get grilled with electricity before Galen, so she had to muster up all her courage.

Ivan, who had regained his composure, glared at Galen and focused his mind.

I felt bad because it felt like I was admitting to a disadvantage if I brought it up first, but now was not the time to be discussing such things.

Tsk tsk!

The magic power drained out all at once, making his head spin. The ideal form that Ivan had been pursuing his entire life was manifested as a revised world.

Parts! Parts! Parts!

If the God of Thunder descended and showed off armor made of lightning, would it be like this?

The net of lightning that wrapped around his entire body and randomly scattered sparks did not even have a single spark flying on Ivan’s clothes. That was a sign that he was completely under control.

Tsk tsk!

At almost the same time, Galen, who recognized Ivan’s revised world, also developed a revised world.

A strong will to rule the entire sea spreads and fills the entire space.

The power of a wizard who had been arbitrarily changing the laws of the world, and who now seeks to dye the world itself in his own colors.

The worlds of the two jewel wizards are intertwined.

“… Okay, I’ll admit that I underestimated you.”

Ivan muttered. It was far enough away that the wizard’s hearing was beyond his ability to hear, but it didn’t matter. It was more like he was talking to himself than to Galen.

“From now on, I will treat you with sincerity.”

The lightning bolt that had been wrapping around Ivan’s body naturally wrapped itself around his hand. The blue light rapidly grew in size in the blink of an eye.

Parts, parts, parts, parts!

A thunderbolt, summoned much more simply than before, struck Galen.

The same mud wall blocked his path, but the aftereffects of the collision were now on the upper line.

Kwaaaaaaaah!

This thunderbolt had enough force to shatter the mud wall.

Although he still could not completely break through the faint fog behind him, Ivan finally noticed the presence of the Death Mist.

“Already double defense… What kind of magic is this… …!”

Ivan gritted his teeth at the ominous feeling of the magic contained in the lightning rapidly fading away.

But at the same time, it also gave me strength.

The effects are immediately apparent as soon as the revised world is developed. The results just now were probably just because the power of the jewel had not been properly used.

I’m starting to get a feel for the law of relativity now.

Kwaarrung!

The lightning bolt that flew back hits the mud wall. It was an attack that targeted only the mud wall from the beginning and excluded the area behind it, so it didn’t use excessive force.

The moment when you succeed in breaking down a mud wall even with moderate adjustments.

Kukwaaang!

Ivan’s second thunderbolt pierced through the noisy, exploding clumps of dirt.

The lightning was shot at a moment when the old mud wall had just collapsed and a new mud wall had not yet been built, and it passed through the fog without encountering any obstacles.

It felt like both power and speed were dead, but that alone wouldn’t be enough to completely block the lightning strike. If that were possible, there wouldn’t have been any need to build a mud wall.

As expected.

Flash!

In the extremely slowed time caused by the acceleration of the accident, a flash of light is seen moving forward steadily without collapsing.

A glimmer of joy came into Ivan’s eyes. He imagined Galen, who would soon be reduced to ashes.

however.

“… … ?”

Maybe it was because his old eyes were dull, but somehow Galen’s surroundings still seemed dark.

The lightning was shining brightly, naturally illuminating the path it was taking, but strangely it remained dark.

The reason, of course, was Galen.

“Tenebrae.”

Galen muttered softly. The pitch-black spirit, who had returned to his side after dealing with the warriors, sympathized with him.

[Pitch Black: Shadow: Manipulation]

[Dark Fairy Tale]

The pitch-black magic used by both humans and spirits simultaneously enveloped Galen in two layers.

[Pitch Black: Heavy Pressure: Guardian]

[Earth Restraint]

The temperament changes immediately.

Just like building a mud wall with countercurrents and increasing defensive capabilities through territorial advances.

It was protected by a shadow shield made of dark fairy tales and bound to the Earth.

The Earth Binding, which had always been in effect only in the form of covering Galen’s body, expanded its scope for the first time. It was a skill that even the original owner, the Earth Elf, could not master.

Kwaaaaaaaang!

Light and darkness collided.

The Shadow Shield did not break like a mud wall. The pitch-black magic contained within it simply reacted with Ivan’s magic contained in the lightning strike, and was consumed at a terrifying speed.

The crackling, burning momentum was terrifying, but the thunderbolt, which had been somewhat weakened by the death mist, could not penetrate even the two layers of shield.

“no?!”

Ivan opened his eyes wide, confirming that the darkness he had seen earlier was not a mistake caused by his old age, but a real mass of darkness, thanks to the dazzling lightning.

“Another… another magic?”

The only fortunate thing is that.

There was something familiar about the way lightning and darkness fought each other, draining each other of their magical power.

Ivan, who had been thinking about his feelings for a moment, realized that it was similar to the feeling he had gotten when the warriors were being swept away earlier.

In other words, it wasn’t a ‘new’ magic. That was fortunate. I don’t know if it was fortunate, since it had already appeared in the water, on the ground, in the fog, and in the darkness, all at the same high level.

And the unfortunate thing is.

Galen, who decided that it would be a bit dangerous to continue defending, gradually switched to a full-scale offensive and this was the first move he made.

Wheeeeeeeeing!

It was a spiral vortex that started to rotate while sucking up the sand and skulls spread on the floor.

“this person…….”

Ivan’s blood pressure soared to the top of his head as a new magic, presumably wind, burst out.

“Just shut up, you punk!”
