The Returned Sword King Decided To Become a Tyrant - The Returned Sword King Decided To Become a Tyrant chapter 123

Source of Power (3)

Fountain of Glory.

In order to prove the treasure trove of great magic, which is said to be the source of that magical power, the ancient magicians gathered their strength and condensed their magical power.

In order to show the theory with your own eyes, you just have to reproduce it yourself.

If you condense mana infinitely into one point, you will be able to penetrate the passage leading to the source of mana.

That’s how the wizards shook off the eyes of the world and concentrated their mana.

But that wasn’t the right decision.

The excessively condensed magic power into one point began to rub against each other, and eventually became hotter.

It is the same even if the coolant of absolute zero temperature made with advanced technology is installed.

Eventually, the magical power reached a point they could not bear, and eventually, the point of magical power that had reached its limit suddenly released a huge amount of energy.

“… … Unfortunately, there is no written content after that.”

“Right.”

The contents written in the scattered research journal were all there. However, the results could be obtained without relying on the research records.

“Was the result of destroying the creators?”

I cast my gaze at the white bones scattered on the floor.

Ironically, they must have already predicted the portent, because the friction had already begun and it was difficult to control.

But the threat was ignored.

It was necessary to prove a theory they had devoted their lives to.

And the remnants of the research left after that, this is it.

It was a mass of artificial mana burning like the sun.

“By the way, I really feel a tremendous amount of magical power.”

The flow of blazing energy is hot.

It was also wonderful. It was a heat made entirely of magic.

“Stop.”

“yes… … yep!”

I stopped Layton, who was about to approach me, muttering blankly.

It was a resolute voice that made me stop involuntarily.

Then, the Master of the Magic Tower stroked his chin and brightened his eyes.

“Time will pass and it will no longer cause the same catastrophe, but it will inevitably be affected by any approach.”

“yes? Oh, is that so?”

“I don’t know what will happen if I’m exposed to that magical power for a long time.”

“Uh… … okay.”

Layton tilted his head while agreeing with the Mage Tower Master’s words.

‘I didn’t mean to touch it directly… … .’

Whether it’s a magic stone or this, after all, it’s the same as a lump of magic, but what is the problem?

For him, it just looks amazing.

But that was when Layton was staring blankly at it.

Whoa!

All of a sudden, the sun in front of me seemed to contract in a small way, and then burst out in a gigantic way that filled my field of vision.

And just in time for that moment, the Magic Tower Master’s magic gently wrapped around the party.

sssss-

A huge wave of energy passing through the shield.

Layton couldn’t hide his surprise even after it passed.

“Bah, what happened just now… … .”

“It seems that the mana accumulated at one point was excessively accumulated and erupted.”

“Well, I don’t know what it is, but that’s what it meant when it said it was dangerous.”

“hmm.”

I answered indifferently.

To be honest, unless I was a wizard, I couldn’t have known more about it.

But what I did know was something simpler and more fundamental than that.

“Do you know that it is a sacred place for barbarians?”

“yes? Are you talking about the Holy Land?”

Layton tilted his head.

The word holy land is familiar, but can it stick with barbarians?

Fortunately, it seems that the master of the magic tower had something to chew on.

“Holy ground… … In other words, you are referring to the place where you are endowed with the mysterious powers of those barbarian warriors.”

“You know that. It is correct.”

Is he a man called a wise man after all?

He gave me the answer I wanted right away.

“The potential of the savages is truly mighty. To the extent that if you fight against a fair number of knights, you can easily predict victory.”

“Surely, I know that our Mage Tower also conducted research on how those who did not acquire Auras use such mighty power.”

“It did.”

It was a study that took place in Esteban, not anywhere else. There was no way I was unaware of it.

but… … .

“As a result, they only learned that they are given power in a place called ‘Holy Land’.”

Information that I managed to find out through various means, including prisoners of war and smugglers roaming the area.

okay.

The final conclusion, apart from being absurd, was nothing more than a worthwhile study.

They are not priests who believe in God, so what kind of holy place are they?

In this way, the contents of the research were buried without even a chance to climb into people’s cubes, and the holy places of the savages no longer remain as myths.

But if… … .

What if the research wasn’t actually wrong?

However, what if the holy ground of barbarians, which was dismissed as a joke at the time, actually exists?

What if there really existed a place that could grant them unknown powers?

In an instant, the Master of the Mage’s eyebrows twitched.

“Judging from the flow of the conversation, I can understand what Your Highness is talking about.”

“Then you will understand quickly.”

My gaze reached the sun that was burning.

and.

“A holy place that grants strength to barbarians. Its true identity is the dregs that have fallen away from the eternally burning magic.”

I spoke a truth that will come to light years from now.

* * *

once a year.

The savages send their tribal children to the Holy Land when winter comes with a blizzard.

It doesn’t do anything special.

Just send the child to the Holy Land and spend the night there.

It was an ignorant ritual close to a primitive belief in being chosen by overcoming the coldest days and nights naked.

However, the results were not so small.

“The children of barbarians, who have been exposed to enormous energy from a young age, show two major aspects.”

Either die without being able to overcome the energy.

If not, adapt to that power and store fragments of magical power in your body.

And what it meant was one in the end.

“So you’re saying that their powers came from this artificial remnant of ancient magic from the beginning.”

“Accurate.”

I nodded and reassured him.

That was the identity of the mysterious power of the barbarians.

“The ‘Warrior’s Gorge’ they call the Holy Land is right here. They were using the power that erupted and flowed out just like before.”

“her… … Then, if only this artificial sun disappeared… … .”

“In the land of barbarians, nothing worthy of being a warrior would be born. It will no longer remain an inviolable territory.”

“Huh!”

A feeling of surprise passed over the face of the Master of the Magic Tower.

Naturally, the country that first explored this place also realized the fact and responded the same way.

If only this disappeared, let alone that the threat of barbarians would decrease day by day.

But ironically, by the time the fact was revealed before the return, it was already too late.

‘Because it was after they made preparations.’

Barbarians who learned that the Continents had invaded the Holy Land built a huge defense line around this place.

Yes, walls built by captive dwarves.

The cause of this was the discovery of these ruins.

And barbarians armed with the weapons provided by them.

The allied forces, which were organized to break their power, were blocked by the defense line and made no gains.

That was the whole story of the expedition before the return and the bitter outcome.

But now, the situation was different from before the return.

The exploration didn’t just end with recognizing the existence of the Holy Land, but what could be called its main body was put in front of the eyes.

promptly.

It was a situation where you could destroy it with just a touch.

From noble mtl dot com.

‘It’s interesting.’

It was at that moment when I raised my lips like that.

“The threat of barbarians disappears! How amazing!”

Layton responded by clapping his hands involuntarily. But when he saw me, he shrank.

It’s because I stood still even with it in front of my eyes.

“majesty? Why are you still… … .”

“I was thinking about how to use this.”

“yes? Utilization?”

Didn’t I just say that? If only this disappears, barbarian warriors will no longer be born?

He quickly showed impatience and looked back and forth between me and the sun.

“This, this place is clearly outside the defense line. If you leave it alone and get attacked by the barbarians, you will be in big trouble. Wouldn’t it be better to destroy this and completely eliminate the aftermath?”

“I can’t.”

“I, Your Highness… … !”

But I can only say so firmly.

A remnant of research left by ancient mages. This infinitely burning energy was too precious to not use.

How much further progress can be made using this?

How much more ancient information can we get?

It was so curious that I couldn’t stand it.

“Magic tower lord.”

“Yes, Your Highness. Please speak.”

“Can this be moved with the power of the Archmage?”

“Huh… … .”

The Mage Master’s mouth was instantly shut. It was because the words were too absurd to hear.

But sooner or later.

“… … It doesn’t matter if it’s a lump of magic power. The power of space movement is, in the end, connecting the two spaces. It will not be bound by its kind or form.”

“Not bad news.”

“However, with a force this powerful, it is highly likely that it will resist the teleport and not move as desired.”

“Details?”

“It means someone has to push it to the other side of the open space.”

An answer that was not overshadowed by the silence flowed out.

My lips curled slightly for an instant.

“Right.”

Swoop-

I took off the glove that was covering my hand and threw it away.

Then he tugged at the sleeves of his black uniform and shrugged.

“Activate your powers. The location should be around the center of the occupied area where no one is.”

“Me, Your Highness?!”

“I’m sure you’ll be safe there. I will obey your order.”

Contrary to Layton’s astonishment, the mage lord’s expression was very calm.

Woo woo woo!

Before long, the magical power of the mage tower dominated the space, and a group of lights flooded through the open passage.

Its location is directly behind the artificial sun.

That said, you literally just had to push it in.

“It’s a simple matter.”

As I approached it, I reached out my right hand.

Koo-goo-goo-goo!

A sensation of openness. And a huge amount of mana that runs rampant here and there.

If it were an ordinary person, his whole body, starting with his hands, would have been burned.

okay. If only it were normal.

In an instant, the magic imprint activated from my right arm wrapped around my body, and I casually stared at the magic point and pulled the corners of my mouth.

“Are you trying to rebel against me?”

It was several months ago that the power of the magic imprint was awakened by breaking through the first critical point.

And since then, he showed unexpected growth while treating the magic tower master, and even absorbed the element of pure wind in Arendelle.

Knowledge and experience prior to regression. And by reviving the advice of the archmage, he achieved faster growth than anyone else.

The imprint on my right arm had already crossed the second critical point.

2nd Critical Ability Magic Blocking (魔力遮斷)

That invincible technique that nullifies all magical power that touches the body is invoked here.

Koo-goo-goo-goo!

Starting with the fingertips, the energy enveloped the whole body and gradually began to spread the area.

and.

that buck

take one step

that buck that buck

body moving little by little.

and fit it.

Geee—!

He cried out and started to roll back.

It wasn’t actually crying, but the mana core in the center could not withstand the repulsive field I spread and was pushed out.

I lightly grabbed the hand that had been spread in that state.

Kwak-!

Then, according to the shape of my hand, the raging mass of magical power began to crush, emitting flares like the sun.

And soon after.

aaa!

The enormous magical energy gathered at one point began to move along with my hand, and soon disappeared to the other side of the open space.

“I came in. I will cast it right away!”

And by waving his hands, the master of the magic tower made the connection between the two spaces disappear.

It happened very quickly.

“Eh, what is this… … !”

Layton stuttered, stunned by the series of circumstances.

How was it to subdue that amazing mass of magical power, and even make it disappear in an instant without leaving a trace?

In addition, the ice at absolute zero, which cooled the heat, began to emit cold air uncontrollably.

It meant only one thing.

“Well, then it really is… … .”

“okay.”

The artificial sun was moved here. That too, to the center of the occupied territory that now belonged to Esteban.

“… … oh my god.”

It was an incredible feat of human ability.
