Only My Magic Levels Up - Chapter 231
Only Noblemtl
Episode 231: The Peace Evangelist (8)
The higher a wizard’s level is, the more his desire to go to a higher level is not quenched, but rather intensified.
No one knows if there is a magic end, or how many walls one must overcome to reach it, because no one has ever reached it.
However, the sense of accomplishment when you overcome a wall is so great that achieving a high level means that you have experienced that pleasure many times.
The wizard had no choice but to endlessly search upwards.
In that sense, it was a stroke of luck, Landon thought.
“Heh, heh heh.”
The wizard who has reached the end of gold and perfected the magic he has learned, the essence of a jewel that has gone beyond perfection and has given it its own unique color, is the world of revision.
However, even though it had been almost twenty years since he reached the realm of Jewel, Landon had only been able to activate the Revised World in real combat a handful of times.
If a jewel from a prestigious family were to act recklessly, the aftermath would be too great. So he had to endure it. Although he was the strongest force in the Typhon family, paradoxically, he had hardly ever been able to freely wield his power since becoming the strongest.
Then, this opportunity suddenly came.
Even though it was a duel, you didn’t have to be as lenient as when you were playing with dozens of opponents. Since the opponent had declared first that he would not adjust his strength, there was no need to be careful.
“I’m looking forward to it… … .”
How will the magic of the strange race of sky fairies, who are either wizards or assassins, be recreated?
The old wizard’s heart, muttering softly, beat as vigorously as that of a young man, driven by fierce intellectual curiosity.
It doesn’t matter if I reveal this world in exchange for seeing the other world. There’s no secret that needs to be hidden, and it’s not something that can be destroyed just by looking at it.
If only I could get inspiration, if only I could get a clue to climb over the wall blocking my way, then I was willing to take that risk.
Chiiing―
Soon, Landon’s revised world covered the surrounding sky.
The one pair of wings grew into three pairs. Six wings made of wind spread out wide.
It’s not like they spread their wings for show. They’re transparent to begin with, so why would they show off their appearance?
The most all-weather wind system of all systems. It is simply a collection of magics that have been set up in a wing-like appearance to make the most of it.
Basically, two cards are for attack, two cards are for defense, and two cards are for support. Of course, these are not fixed roles, and can be changed at any time.
Chiiing―
Immediately after that, the other Sky Fairy… was it the Archbishop who called her Shamita? Anyway, she also developed a revised world.
Two different wills overlap in the same space. Coexistence rather than cancellation. A space is created where the unique colors of both magicians are simultaneously expressed, and where both can exert their power.
However, we can only know that the opponent has activated the revised world, and the exact effect is still unknown.
All of Landon’s senses were focused on Shamita.
At that moment, Shamita turned her arms behind her back.
He ran his hand along the side of the box he was carrying on his back, which he had refused to take care of even though the archbishop had offered to take care of it.
Crunch!
There was a sound of metal meshing, and then the bottom of the box opened wide and its contents spilled out.
Even though it was a bit far away, it wasn’t so small or strange that Landon couldn’t see it. Of course, he wondered if it was the right thing to come from here.
“…dagger?”
Cloths that seemed to have been used as buffers were fluttering about, and daggers were revealed between them. The scabbards were not on to begin with.
The blade was definitely shorter than that of a normal sword, so it could be called a dagger, but it wasn’t that small either.
Clearly not for everyday use, but for combat. A weapon that can be used sufficiently in close combat, such as by an assassin as a primary weapon, or by an archer as a secondary weapon.
Not one or two, but more than ten daggers poured out.
Landon’s eyes, which had been slightly puzzled as he wondered what was going on, soon became sharp.
“hmm?”
The daggers that popped out of the box did not fall down.
At first it seemed to fall a little, but then suddenly stopped not far from Shamita’s feet.
Then, like a fish swimming in water, it floated up to the surface. The sight of it floating around Shamita in a disorderly manner was truly bizarre.
“Let’s get started.”
As Shamita lightly grabbed the rags that had flown in and roughly folded them with her hands, she declared indifferently.
Wheaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Eighteen daggers were fired simultaneously.
If it was simply a flying sword technique that was thrown quickly, it would be a common technique that was not surprising at all, and it would not have been threatening at all. At least to Landon, a wizard who could control the wind.
Even if it is the Jewel Warrior’s dagger technique, it is the same. It is scary to hold it in your hand and strike it down, but if you throw it from a distance, no matter how hard you throw it, the dagger is light and has limited power. It can be easily blown away by the wind.
But Shamita’s daggers were different.
“Huh?!”
It was like a sword cutting water with almost no resistance, piercing through the wall of wind created by swinging a single wing of defense.
If I hadn’t slowed down the flow of time with the accident acceleration, I would have built a wall of wind and been relieved, only to end up getting skewered.
Landon hurriedly mobilized his other defensive wings. Two wings, each loaded with power, moved simultaneously.
In the blink of an eye, a condensed greatsword of wind blocked the dagger’s path.
Paaaaaaaah!
The moment they collided, the compressed wind burst out fiercely. Only then was the dagger’s advance stopped. The daggers caught in the shockwave were blown away like fallen leaves.
But that was only for a moment.
The dagger that had been spinning around and flying far away suddenly stopped. It was as if an invisible hand had grabbed it.
The sharp tip of the sword was pointed at Landon again, and he fired just like before, but from a different starting point.
Wheaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Eighteen daggers that struck at a speed so fast that an ordinary person would have been pierced without even being able to react, and that did not strike in a simple straight line, but instead bent randomly and came in at an unexpected trajectory.
Landon burst into laughter as he swept his wings again and swept them all away.
“Indeed, if it’s like this, there’s a good chance that you’ll make a mistake in controlling your strength!”
When I realized that I could die or get seriously injured if I made a single move, my senses became tense for the first time in a long time. It was a feeling I hadn’t felt in a long time, and I even felt joy.
If a sky fairy specialized in close combat like an assassin could show this much power in long-range combat as well.
How much more threatening would it be if it were to move directly? Just analyzing the sight of the bizarre dagger moving in defiance of the wind is already inspiring.
“I will go with all my heart!”
The wings of defense continued to deal with the daggers, while the two wings of attack flapped powerfully.
Shhhhhhhhh!
A fierce storm tore through the air like a blade.
Shamita’s movement of sliding through the air to dodge was used as a signal.
The battle between the two jewel wizards is starting to heat up in earnest.
* * *
Unlike the increasingly tense atmosphere above, the atmosphere on the cliff was peaceful.
To be exact, Landon’s escorts were just looking up at the sky anxiously, but that’s not something I care about.
Galen and Lilia were leisurely watching. The wind hammock was more like an armchair with its backrest reclined almost 180 degrees, making it more comfortable than a real hammock.
“Shamita’s revised world is very unique.”
Lilia, who was watching the castle with glittering lights, expressed her impressions.
“Didn’t you say that the power of the sky, like the power of the earth, is a magic that wraps around the body?”
“That’s right. It seems like the nature of magic has been distorted by the revision world. That’s what happened with Radika too.”
The nature of the boundless Earth that condenses infinitely is instantly reversed and radiated in the opposite direction. The power transforms into a shock wave and sweeps away a wide area, which was the second-ranked revision world of the Earth Fairy hierarchy.
The second-ranked Sky Fairy seemed to have left the nature of Sky Liberation as is, but expanded its range so that it could be applied to daggers outside the body as well.
“Should we call each of those daggers small Shamitas? They fly around as if they have no weight, and they ignore most attacks.”
“It might be tricky.”
If you’re a warrior, you have to honestly strike down those daggers one by one, but dealing with them that are fast, come in at random angles, and don’t hit accurately is no easy task.
Since wizards are extremely focused on one area, anyone who has learned magic that doesn’t have the ability to intercept or block daggers will be defeated in vain. Landon has both, so they’re evenly matched.
but.
“Not to Lilia, right?”
“Not even to you, brother.”
This was not an issue for Liliana, who could simply respond to the opponent’s revised world with a miracle of selection and erase it, but for Galen, who was troubled by the fact that there were too many ways to respond, it was an issue that did not apply to him.
“How about the other side?”
“well…….”
Galen trailed off at Lilia’s question.
In fact, the gap between the liberation of the sky and Shamitha, which is still in its early stages, is so large that it is difficult to feel its greatness even when watching it.
Rather, the golden pole, the storm magic that was just one step away from reaching level 70, was more appealing.
Galen tried to implement the magic that Landon had hinted at earlier.
[Storm: Convection: Control]
[Blowing the wind and phantom feathers]
The surrounding air, drawn by the storm’s magic, gathered around Galen and then stopped according to Galen’s will.
As the name suggests, the Wings of Illusion (幻羽) that call for the wind (呼風) suggests, the basic structure is to compress the wind into the shape of wings and use it for offense, defense, or assistance.
The wing form was not forced. The Fontaine family simply developed magic that way, and Galen simply copied it. The real key was the ability to freely manipulate the wind itself.
“Landon’s revised world just feels like it’s strengthening the existing magic.”
The revised world of water manipulation is like that. Since there was nothing particularly lacking in the existing magic, instead of changing anything in particular, they just greatly enhanced the existing abilities.
“The two wings became six?”
“yes.”
“That doesn’t mean that his power has tripled, but it does mean that his direction hasn’t changed. Since Typhon’s wind magic is so versatile, he probably thought that just strengthening it would be enough.”
“aha.”
“Well, looking at it, I can’t say it was a particularly wrong decision… … .”
Flying freely in the sky, he blocked Shamita’s daggers and even counterattacked in return.
Among the magics that are often overly specialized in one direction, this was a rare all-purpose magic that could be used for both offense, defense, and assistance. So, from Landon’s perspective, there was no need to try something different.
“… But, I don’t think this is the right path for me.”
Galen declared with eyes that had completely lost all worry. Lilia blinked for a moment, then smiled bashfully.
“I think so too! Brother, you are already omnipotent!”
For a typical wizard who only learns one magic, it is obviously better to have a balanced range of magic rather than one that is too focused on one side.
However, Galen is a special case in that he has already mastered all types of magic and they can complement each other.
Since you can just fill in the areas you are lacking in with other magic, it is a much better choice to just specialize rather than trying to do a bunch of different things.
This moment when Galen himself was convinced and Lilia agreed.
Galen’s mind was set on which direction to develop his storm magic.
Of course, there is no need to forcefully suppress the versatility of the wind system itself, but in a situation where you have to exert all your power… you don’t need a soft and delicate wind. You only need a storm that will tear apart your enemies. Not a typhoon, but a spiral circulation.
Rather than vague imagination or hope, a firm determination was established that would not be shaken by external forces.
At the same time, one of the walls blocking Galen’s path collapsed.
[Storm Lv.70]
[Convection: Rotation, Control]
[1% progress to next level]
It was the third jewel.
