Welcome to the Magic Tower - Welcome to the Magic Tower chapter 56

56 – Smile

“Did you get it?”

And then, as if waiting for those words, a radiance rose from under the surface of the fire.

A brilliant golden glow pierced the waves of crimson flames and split them as they were.

In an instant, the fire that filled the streets crumbled and scattered in the air.

Still, the heat remained, evaporating a rain of mist that reached near the floor.

In this way, a fog of steam rose up in the street instead of fireworks.

The Pope stood alone in the midst of them and looked at the witch on the roof with a calm expression and no soot.

A witch with brilliant golden hair that cannot be hidden even with a gloomy robe, and red eyes that look as if the finest rubies are embedded in her pure white face.

The witch also looked down at the pope in the street, looking unimpressed. But her pupils, which glowed faintly, contained her indescribable rage.

Facing each other’s hatred, they both realized at the same time. Their own wishes. Surprisingly, he also agreed.

–Kill that guy.

A moderate conversation between them was impossible and not necessary.

The witch started her act first.

She raised her spells with her hands spread at her sides.

In an instant, she embodied fire-attribute magic in her right hand and thunder-attribute magic in her left hand.

Double Casting.

Even though the level of magic was intermediate, it was originally impossible with her skills to realize two magics at the same time and in an instant.

However, the ‘Book of the Wise’ nestled in her bosom made him possible.

‘…… Calmly, calmly. If I do well, I can kill him.’

Shin Hye-young felt that it was very difficult to maintain her reason in the face of her enemies.

Her head keeps boiling with anger, and she tries to shake up her plan that she has made beforehand.

She clenched her teeth so much that she felt her teeth crumble and held her spirit.

She immediately suppressed her desire to pour out her all.

Instead, she threw the magic she had just embodied in her two hands onto the ground one after another.

The little sun flew quickly through the air.

Thunderbolts rode from roofs down walls, down wet stone floors to the enemy.

The Pope looked at the witch’s two spells for a while, then endowed the Holy Spear Eterium with holy power.

[ 100,000 ‘Moji Coin’ is consumed. ]

A sacred voice resounded in the pope’s head, and at the same time the holy spear shone brilliantly.

At the same time, the pope swung his spear at a ball of fire that flew straight at his head.

A quick, powerful blow that didn’t go well with that old body slashed the space and cut down a fireball flying from afar.

Immediately after, the pope looked sideways at the thunderbolt that had reached a close distance.

He swung his spear wide, then swung it one more round naturally like water flowing, and stuck the spear vertically into the ground.

The holy power that filled his whole body was poured into the groove.

[ 100,000 ‘Moji Coin’ is consumed. ]

Then the surrounding land began to emit a divine glow.

The thunderbolt that reached belatedly caught the light with his body, but he did not dare to invade the sanctuary created by sacrificing the goods of the gods.

[ 50,000 ‘Moji Coin’ is consumed. ]

[ 30,000 ‘Moji Coins’ are consumed. ]

[ 20,000 ‘Moji Coin’ is consumed. ]

[ 50,000 ‘Moji Coin’ is consumed. ]

The Pope watched as the witch continued to cast her spells.

The appearance of forming spells surprisingly quickly reminded me of the archwitch of old.

But I didn’t feel threatened.

As long as the Holy Power was continuously paid, the Sanctuary could easily block any attack, and the Pope was the richest man in the world and was able to turn that wealth into Holy Power.

In other words, they had an absolute advantage in this war of attrition.

If you hold out in the sanctuary until the guards notice the commotion and come, you will be able to finish the hunt without suffering any damage.

‘…… So, wouldn’t it be worthwhile to take the bait yourself?’

The Pope had absolute confidence.

There was absolute pride in his own strength, that if the opponent only revealed his face, he could annihilate him alone.

He glared at the witch, who was still standing on her roof, narrow-eyed.

‘Obviously witches were slow on their feet… ….’

A question popped up in his mind whether he needed to watch the joke. Indeed, there was no need for that.

Pope Mars muttered, raising the corners of his mouth slyly.

“Okay, I’ll twist your neck at once.”

With that in mind, the pope lifted the sanctuary. He lightly cut the flying magic with his spear and began to squeeze out the maximum amount of holy power that could be used at once.

God bless me.

[ One million ‘Moji Coins’ are consumed. ]

The pope’s left foot was pulled back. The old man’s body was lowered. Strength went through his whole body. Along with the radiance, the body was filled with divine power. He hit the floor right away.

“…… !”

It wasn’t until her eyes met the Pope that the witch realized that he had jumped through space in an instant, and that he was sitting right in front of her.

It’s been a while, but the pope’s movements didn’t catch up at all.

Of course, it may be fortunate that I found him even now, but it was no consolation.

It is certainly not good that the pope’s movement has improved beyond imagination.

However, the situation in which the spear of brilliance approached every moment, which could not pierce his head and would shatter it without a trace, was indescribably threatening.

Shin Hye-young suddenly felt a déjà vu in the midst of an obvious crisis.

The second day after entering the dungeon, the day Lee Jin-woo died.

‘I ran away then.’

Why did you run away with the transfer stone?

To preserve Lee Jin-woo’s body?

Or, my life?

Because I’m not good at competing with the Pope?

Then, how about this time?

There is nothing to protect other than yourself. There is also no ambiguous determination and fear.

There is a magic spell that will improve your pitiful skills. There are parts available for operations.

And, above all, there was ‘time’ to prepare something that doubled or more than doubled the magician’s strength and means.

The preparation was perfect.

So Shin Hye-young didn’t use any magic, she just raised the corner of her mouth.

The Pope, who had been laughing before him, realized what had happened the moment he saw him.

Click——! At the same time, the secretly hidden trap spell is activated.

The roofs and walls of all the surrounding buildings and the entire building were burning red.

It was a precursor to ‘Explosion’, an advanced magic that the witch had accumulated over and over over several days.

But even though the pope noticed him, he didn’t let go.

It was too late to avoid any damage, and with a little extra time, she could have definitely killed her witch.

The Pope did not intend to watch her witch run away like the last time.

Give flesh and take life——!

The pope brandished his spear with a mean laugh and soon realized that it was all an illusion.

The witch’s skin under the robe was burning like red-hot marble. Also, it was very slow because it was a fleeting moment, but it definitely swelled up little by little.

The Pope did not know the details of his magic. However, he instinctively realized. This is a much more dangerous situation than you might think.

“──You oh oh!”

Shin Hye-young smiled at the old man who was about to scream.

Her burning pain gnawed at her whole body, but the idea that she could finally take a shot made her feel good.

So she was able to smile brightly.

And, it was the most beautiful smile the pope had ever seen in his life.

──Decoy.

A sharp spear imbued with brilliance soon touched his short head.

It was broken without any resistance.

Heoyeon Brains and bone fragments are scattered and scattered in the air.

The headless corpse begins to fall to the floor at a slow pace.

That delicate corpse burned redder than anything else around it.

After crushing the witch’s head, the pope raised her holy power one after another and embraced her with a dazzling radiance before he had time to retract her spear.

He soared as high up into the sky as he could to avoid the direct hit of the explosion.

At the same time, the corpse and the surrounding buildings swelled up red.

And——

Kwaang.

The fire demon reached the sky.

* * *

I heard the sound of heaven and earth collapsing, and the world shook mercilessly.

“──f*ck?!”

I had a sense of balance and confidence in my lower body, but I was able to regain a sense of stability only by holding onto the wall of the sewer.

However, the soldiers do not even do that properly and collapse into their seats. Obviously, they had the physique to eat 1 vs. 500, But the current vibration resonating in the sewer was strong enough to dismiss him lightly.

‘Can the sewer really collapse?!’

That inspiration……. After observing it for a few days, I thought that you sincerely think of me as a brother, but I never thought you would prepare a trap like this.

Was it not a foolish brother-in-law, but a cunning viper?

I frowned at the sense of betrayal and drew my knife.

I looked at the guards lying on the floor of the sewer.

They looked at me with puzzled expressions and soon began to turn white.

And then, I approached them with a very mean heart.
