Returned as a Transcendent Genius Summoner - Chapter 237

Episode 237 – What is Lux?

They say that human potential is greater than we think.

Those who work tirelessly can stand tall on top of the world, but there are also cases where hidden explosive powers surge up.

For example, is it like the story of a woman who defeated a gun-wielding robber with her bare hands?

What if you could control that immense power with a temporary burst of force?

Anyone who encounters it will be greatly surprised by the opponent’s suddenly increased capabilities.

That was the great demon who just took Lucas’ sword.

“Ugh!?”

“Yeah, that’s what it felt like.”

At some point, Lucas became so absorbed in ‘protecting’ that he became inactive.

I was always waiting for the enemy to attack, and because I was waiting for the right time to counterattack, I sometimes missed the opportunity to seize the victory.

Lucas recalled his battle with Matthias and began to move as Narae had advised.

Protecting doesn’t mean just defending unconditionally.

“I have to become a proper opponent.”

“Those cheeky bastards… … .”

The high demon became enraged, drawing out all the power he could muster.

How dare you ignore me, a close associate of the great Demon Archduke!?

You’re thinking of using me as a sparring partner when you’re begging me to spare your life?

It was something I just couldn’t let go of.

Not only was the great devil’s pride shattered, but he was also ridiculed.

A crimson magical power that ran wild swept through the surroundings.

On the other hand, Lucas felt like he was seeing his old self when he saw the appearance of such a high-ranking demon.

‘Is this what it looked like? It must have looked quite ugly to the enemies.’

The aura emanating from his heart grew hotter and hotter.

On the other hand, his head, which controls everything, coldly assessed the situation.

Lucas took a big step forward and extended his sword.

Something that had been strangling him was shattered, and Lucas’ aura became a little sharper.

[???: Realizing the Secret of a True Counterattack 1/1]

[One of the paths of transcendence has been completed.]

A true counterattack is not about waiting for the right time.

Create an opening in your opponent’s defense and then counterattack to take them out in one fell swoop.

In the midst of constant attacks and defenses, the true defense is to prevent the enemy from taking their eyes off you.

Lucas’ aura began to change from gold to platinum.

The high-ranking demon tried to create an opening with his strongest attack.

Then the enemy will respond in kind!

It was a very devilish thought, but he tried to use his brain.

‘This attack is fake. The next attack is real-!?’

“Did you think I didn’t know?”

An attack that is full of force but lacks any killing intent.

However, Lucas decided to use that as an opportunity to counterattack.

[Aura Counter]

He boldly dug inward and made attacks that would not normally reach him reach him.

A move that perfectly catches the enemy off guard and brilliantly exploits their psychology.

Kwarrrrrr-!

The great magical power that protected the high-ranking demon twisted and thrust its sharp teeth into him.

“What the hell-!?”

“Pretending doesn’t work in front of me.”

Of course, just attacking won’t work either.

Irrationality is what it feels like when dealing with the strong.

This meant that Lucas had now become a full-fledged strongman.

Kwaaaaaaaaaaah-!

The platinum aura and crimson magic mixed together to tear the high-ranking demon apart.

At the same time, all the demons behind him were blown away.

Lucas’ counter cuts a path through the long ruins.

Lucas held his sword tightly as he watched the scene.

Have you been limiting your potential this much until now?

He instinctively turned his eyes and looked at Hwanung, his master.

There was Hwanung, smiling brightly and raising his thumb with his large flaming hand, whom I had never seen before.

A master who always believes in himself and watches over him.

Thanks to that, I felt like I had more strength.

‘Let’s go. To become the Master’s confidant.’

“Ranid!”

“Hehehehe!”

I don’t know about anything else, but I can’t let the Master’s left and right arms be taken away.

Lucas’ body burst into a golden glow as he charged at the demons.

“Ugh! Just wait and see, you worthless humans!”

“You called him the Archduke of the Devil, right? He’s not as good as I thought.”

“Wouldn’t this be the perfect sacrifice to signal resurrection?”

“But, the owner’s intentions seem to be different.”

The two people of Cheonmasingyo turned their heads and looked at Hwanung.

The order was given not to pursue the demons, who were retreating like the ebb tide.

At the same time, orders were given to support the battle against Miraiel.

Lucy fights with bright light shining from her wings, and Nergo spits out various magic and purple breath.

Even the earthly wizards who support the two.

The battle was fierce, but soon the odds were stacked in one direction.

“I will join.”

“I’ll help you too!”

Because Narae, who had 100 agility, and Nia, who had guardian-level power, cleared out the demons and fully intervened in this fight.

Not only was the wind-controlling Narae lacking, but the dragon’s eloquence, known as the pinnacle of magic, was also very impressive.

Her golden eyes commanded Mana directly.

[Tie it up.]

Phagecic-!

The power of the dragon that controls mana.

No matter how blessed you were by Rubinos and how powerful your fighting power was, you could not be free from the flow of mana.

The angels struggled against the chains of mana that bound them, and were pierced by Lucy’s spear.

The weapons they used were absorbed into Lucy and became her power.

“Miraiel, tell the Archangels of Heaven that the most radiant wings will soon come to bring them down.”

“How dare you mention the great archangels on the subject of fallen angels!”

“You talk too much, even though you’re dressed in rags.”

Kwajik-!

Lucy’s spear cut off one of Miraiel’s wings.

Miraiel frowned in pain as she lost her balance with the red sparks.

Then, the back of Lucy’s spear struck his chest.

“Kwaaak-!”

“You will be a messenger and a defeated soldier. It will be interesting to see what Rubinos’ legions will do with you.”

“Tea, just kill me!”

“That’s nonsense.”

Lucy’s golden eyes sank coldly.

Narae, who was next to me, chimed in.

“Can I help you?”

“I wish I could send it far away.”

“great.”

The wind blew.

A strong, fierce gust of wind blew and blew the wingless angel far away.

Surprisingly, the wind only blew away Miraiel and did not interfere with the other angels.

It was only a matter of time before the angels who had lost their leader were slaughtered.

The battle surrounding the gate slowly began to wind down.

It was an easy task to finish off the place where the demons had swept through.

“Let’s try a little harder.”

“Yes, Master.”

“By the way, Summoner, when do you plan on dealing with the hidden rat?”

Nia asked, keeping pace with the charging summons.

Since some time ago, I felt like there was someone hovering nearby.

It is true that it has great power, but it is a being that Nia can easily handle.

I left it alone because it didn’t seem to have any hostility, but shouldn’t I start managing it now?

“Let’s hear the story first. They must know that we have noticed their presence.”

“Should I just deal with this and then call him out?”

“great.”

The agreement has been reached.

In order to resolve your curiosity, you will have to deal with it on purpose.

Hwanung’s summons, Nia, and Styx began to destroy the gate.

The blue-haired boy shouted in a voice full of joy.

“Finally-! I finally broke it!”

It’s something I’ve been wishing for for a long time.

The Red Army’s gate, which could not be broken down by one’s own strength.

How many enemies came through there?

The people of the world tried to conquer it, but they all failed.

I’ve been living like that for decades, holding my breath.

Finally, the moment came when that damned gate was destroyed.

A huge cloud of dust rose up.

The boy clenched his fists and gathered his strength again.

“Although this is all I can do… … .”

At that time, we tried to moisten the dry land again.

A woman’s voice came to his mind.

[How long are you planning on hiding? If we take care of the matter, you should at least say thank you. Don’t you think so?]

“ah…….”

A magic message that accurately identifies and shoots out one’s own location.

I already knew that.

The boy walked hesitantly.

Anyway, it was true that he had helped me.

[Sorry, I’ll be right back.]

[Okay. I’ll wait.]

As I was polite, the other person responded with a soft voice.

The boy walked slowly, thinking that they didn’t seem like bad people.

Rubinus’ army was seen retreating.

The guardian guarding the gate was seen collapsing.

If they are great people who have achieved such things, I would be happy to reveal their appearance.

The boy thought so and revealed himself to Hwanung and his party.

The first thing I discovered was Narae.

She, who was actively working as Hwanung’s right-hand man in name and reality, felt someone with a similar energy to herself.

“Welcome, Guardian of this Land.”

“……nice to meet you.”

The boy walked away looking extremely timid.

Hwanung and Nia found him and slowly approached him.

“Are you the one who made the request?”

“Yes… … . My name is [Behemoth].”

“Oh, but the name doesn’t really match?”

Nia gave a small exclamation of admiration.

Behemoth.

The boy’s physique was very small compared to his name, which suggested that he was very large and had an enormous build.

Instead, it has the ability to control clouds and weather, so that’s somewhat true.

“Haha, this isn’t its original form.”

“also-.”

“Well, first of all, thank you very much. For driving out those who occupy this land… … .”

“You’re getting paid for it, so don’t worry too much about it.”

Hwanung spoke simply, and Behemoth nodded.

Should we first hear the whole story?

Or information?

Hwanung decided to first hear various stories from Behemoth.

“Thank you for your hard work. Can you tell me how many more battles like this we will have to endure?”

“Yes, yes! Of course. First, I will create a [safe zone] for you.”

Behemoth raised his hand and unleashed his power.

Urrrrrr-!

Clouds began to gather and a huge storm began to form.

It was a sophisticated and threatening cloud barrier that made Narae open her eyes wide.

[Storm Realm]

[Creates an area that protects allies.]

[All abilities are restored by 0.5% per minute.]

[Deals fixed damage equal to 3% of maximum health per second to enemies who enter the storm.]

Behemoth’s ability to repel intruders.

It was a moment that I absolutely had to hear why I couldn’t fight with this ability.

Hwanung’s mouth opened.

Questions about the success of the commission began to pour in.
