Gate (2)
A turmoil broke out in the Yoosung Academy.
This is because there was a strange phenomenon that the radio waves did not explode all at once. As a result of the confirmation, the same phenomenon was occurring in the neighboring areas except for the Yoosung Academy.
The biggest problem is that we don’t know what is causing it. There was no attack by other forces, communication was not possible, and no other damage occurred. Of course, if this wasn’t resolved quickly, it was sure to be a big deal.
“There is no way to communicate wirelessly except by wire. The same goes for communication using mana.”
Emergencies. The instructors met and talked with the wizards in the office. They also did not understand the exact situation.
Jenna Walkers, who had just returned to the office, said with her arms crossed.
“I and other wizards have looked around, but I don’t know. There is no trace of mana, so at least it didn’t happen because of magic.”
“Hmm. So, can it be an EMP?”
“Well. It seems to be a similar situation.”
“Walkers. How long has this been happening?”
“It hasn’t even been 30 minutes yet.”
“Ugh. Still, there is no other movement. What is the purpose?”
smart. At that moment, there was a sound of breaking the conversation and the door to the classroom opened.
“Chairman Astiel?”
The door opened and the student council president, Astiel Grand, entered.
I called the school phone and went straight to the school office. Astiel nodded his head, looked around the crowd, and then walked up to Beatrice.
“Instructor Beatrice. Seo Ji-han seems to know something.”
“Yes? What?”
Saying something you’re not sure will only add to the confusion. Astiel whispered in his ear so that no one could hear it. And soon Beatrice’s complexion changed.
“Is that really true?”
“yes. I think he immediately left the academy without permission.”
“…the president thinks that an aspiring hero of Jihan would do something like that out of the blue?”
“I don’t think so.”
Seo Ji-han is a guy who has shown unexpected behavior and results. It was clear that she acted on a basis this time too. However, it is a belief that is possible because they know Seo Ji-han well.
“What are you talking about so that only the two of you are whispering?”
If I had to tell other people, it was obvious that they would pass it on as nonsense. It’s not a light thing, it’s a ‘gate’. A gate in the safe zone protected by the protection of the tower. It was the worst thing that happened in itself.
In addition, to prepare for the gate, not only the instructors but also the aspiring hero must be mobilized to move. But what if something other than the gate happens?
. . . may not be able to respond. Realistically, it was impossible to blindly trust the unfounded voice of an aspiring hero.
“Did the aspiring hero of Jihan go alone?”
“no. There was news from the front door that Ellen Aiden and her spirits were going out together.”
“Hmm. If it’s the two of them…”
Beatrice thought for a moment and said.
“Even so, the two of them would be insufficient. I think I should send in support to prepare for the worst, but the problem is that I can’t reach you right now. I can’t just send other aspiring heroes…”
“Do not worry. I have brought with me a small number of children.”
Astiel looked back, and Beatrice’s gaze followed. Shiny black hair could be seen through the gap in the door of the classroom, which was not completely closed.
Beatrice went straight out into the hallway. Noah Park and Lian Arwell were waiting there. Astiel brought him to the school office.
“Did you hear about it?”
“yes. I heard what was going on when I came.”
In response to Noah Park’s answer, Beatrice didn’t say anything. He simply placed his hand on his shoulder and grabbed it with strength.
“Then, Noah Park aspiring hero, Arwell aspiring hero. I’m sorry, but I’m begging you.”
At that, Noah Park and Arwell nodded their heads.
I clicked my tongue.
[Matan – Explosion] was triggered, but no explosion occurred. The bullet that was fired was swept away by the magic that it had manifested and disappeared.
‘···Spatial magic.’
I used magic to blow my magic bullet somewhere, or erased the space itself. Judging by the speed of his appearance, it is unlikely that he will be the latter, but he is a skillful wizard anyway.
Top notch wizard. Can it even be beaten against a mage who wields space magic? It’s not even the Academy area, but the 52nd privilege, ‘Little Power’, has also disappeared.
…but I’ll have to try it first.
“Mr. Jihan. Wait.”
Aiden stepped forward as he pointed the gun again. Blue flames were burning in his hands, threatening him. The wizard aimed his hand again, but saw the blue flames and stopped.
Aiden looked at the wizard in front of him and said.
“This spark would be enough to prove it. I am Ellen Aiden. Who are you?”
The wizard had no answer. Also, no magic appeared.
‘Are you looking at Aiden in this situation?’
It was a minor reaction, but the action gave me confidence. I know this has something to do with the tower.
If it had been an independent action, there was no need to pay attention to Aiden. Obviously, they are closely related to the Tower, so even if they do this, Aiden will not be able to attack. I remembered a recent incident.
‘It was also aimed at the Black Hawk, maybe it was an extension of the rebuild.’
So retaliation? The Dwan family has enough power to do so. However···.
Then said the ego sword he was carrying on his shoulder.
[Seo Seo-han. There are two more wizards nearby. ]
He quietly nodded.
Yes, it’s not even an individual action. It seems that the Black Hawk itself has been occupied, but there is no way that such a wide range can be done alone.
‘under···. I thought we could just block the gate for a moment.’
It is a difficult situation to say whether it is fortunate that I have come here or not. The only consolation is that he’s not threatening Aiden.
‘How will it come out if this is also a mistake.’
“Miss Aiden. If you stay here, you will be swept away. Avoid it.”
The wizard, wearing the hood of his robe, finally opened his mouth. However, the voice heard was a tampered voice. The shading under the hood did not reveal the face to such an extent that it was heterogeneous. A magic to hide his identity was being manifested.
“Hmm. I’m sorry, but I can’t. I think I’ll have to deal with you before then.”
The conversation is over. A mana rod was drawn on Aiden’s arm.
👌👌👌👌👌 Then, as if waiting for that moment, wizards from both sides appeared through the space.
Teleportation. If I didn’t know, I would have been hit without a hitch, but since I already knew it existed, it was easy to respond.
I aimed the gun at one and the other came into my sight.
bang! Flames rose with the explosion of the magic bullet.
“Great!”
When they stopped their approach, Aiden, who finished the manifestation of the magic, stretched out his hands towards them.
[Flame]
Whoops! The fierce flames that erupted engulfed them. As black smoke rose overhead, the wizards stumbled backwards through the flames and collapsed.
The robe was burnt and the naked body was revealed, but the melted face made it difficult to identify the identity. I turned my gaze to the disgusting sight and looked at the back of Aiden’s head.
“…awesome. It’s a mistake.”
Aiden answered in a low voice, as if embarrassed. There may still be other wizards. I was vigilant and pointed to the corpses at the remaining wizards and shouted.
“Do you want to be like this too? Why don’t you just listen to Miss Aiden?”
“Hmm. It’s already too late.”
creepy.
I was shivering so much that my body shivered. I reflexively raised my head to the sky where the gate appeared.
At the same time, what caught my eye was the view of the sky falling.
damn! As the gate opened, the space began to shake. The wind pressure from the open gate pushed the body away. I lowered myself so as not to be swept away.
[Seo Seo-han. Be nervous.]
I will turn Even if the ego sword didn’t send a warning, he was nervous enough. Because a huge hand was coming out of the empty space that appeared in broken form.
As soon as a black hand large enough to cover the sky appeared, the perk was activated. It means that it is a dangerous existence just by looking at it.
‘More than that, why…?’
I am aware of its existence. That black hand is part of a ‘disaster’ that was naturally formed by the agglomeration of erosion that has flowed over the years.
What I can’t understand is that disaster is something that lives inside the tower. Erosion had to reach the first floor to get out.
That means…
“Crazy bastards.”
After understanding the situation, I vomited out swear words and shouted at the wizard.
“What kind of bullshit is this!!! Move the gate that appears from the tower to the outside?!”
It must have been that the gate that appeared from the tower was moved to the outside, a safe zone using space magic. What did you do that for?
I quickly reached out and grabbed Aiden, who almost flew backwards.
. . . for the first time. The Aiden looked up at his black hand in terror. I pulled Aiden up and pushed him under me, lest I miss him.
“shit.”
Whoa! Erosion flows from the black hand. As the blue sky grew darker, the black hand was approaching the ground. At this rate, the entire building of Black Hawk must have been destroyed.
with the people here.
fuck off. Not even 1 minute is too much. how should···.
[Special. 65 – The effect of ‘Gate Breaker’ is activated.]
[Amplification of stats within the gate range, 300% effect on targets related to the gate]
I couldn’t help but smile bitterly at the system that appeared in front of me.
‘Isn’t there still a way to die?’
New perks. The achievement required to close the gate 500 times was activated.
“Hand over Miss Aiden.”
Then the wizard pierced the wind and slowly approached. Isn’t that guy okay with disaster? He must have been prepared to cast immunity magic.
I carefully woke up the frightened Aiden.
“What do you believe in and hand it over to you?”
“Then you have to take it.”
The wizard expressed magic while drawing a mana rod.
I could see a stream of blue mana stretching out to me. But despite seeing it, it could not be avoided. The mana coming from both sides like a wall had already blocked my escape route.
Whoops! Soon something grabbed my body. It feels different from Oh Yun-ha’s telekinetic power. It was as if my very existence was distorted.
Aiden, who got up, slumped down. That wizard was chasing the space, aiming only at my body. The wizard walks towards me with his hand outstretched. Then, he drew a mana rod on his other arm, and overlapped his arms.
Whoa! The mana rods of both arms crossed and connected. In my view, I could see a violent storm created by mana.
The wizard spoke to me in a gloomy voice.
“I will release you from this world. Be imprisoned in pain for the rest of your life.”
Suddenly I laughed, and the wizard frowned. Even though he couldn’t see because of the shadows, it was clear that he was grimacing.
“Are you terrified?”
No way. I was rather grateful.
“Thank you···. asshole.”
My body is being compressed, but this only binds my body, and the nature of [Mana Conversion – Mana Mana Handling] makes mana operation no problem even in such a situation.
―The structure of the magic engraved with the mana rod was reproduced at high speed.
👌👌👌👌👌 Huge ice spears created in an instant were scattered everywhere.
“··················· Well!”
[Ice Spear] is an improved magic with a curse. When the wizard brushed it, the area it touched quickly froze. Both arms were already expressing space magic, so other magic could not be used.
The man clasped his hands and quickly stepped back. That action created an opportunity.
The ego sword tied to his shoulder shouted and trembled. Then, the light pierced through the covering cloth.
It wasn’t the divine power that was the proof of the holy sword. It was the original power of the ego sword.
With the sound of something breaking, the right arm was released from restraint.
I quickly put my hand into my arms and pulled out the blue stone. A Manastone received by winning the Shooting Festival. It was emitting a clear blue light because it had absorbed my magic.
closely. I grabbed it with all my might and recreated the new magic engraved on my mana rod as it is.
[compression]
I stretched out my hand. Guess I sensed the crisis, the wizard released the magic that was controlling me and developed a defense magic. But that’s not where my magic was headed. He raised his head and looked at the black hand that covered the sky. It was just before he crushed the Black Hawk.
It’s unreasonable to block that with magic like this. A ‘disaster’ is what I call a disaster because it is something I cannot deal with.
…but nevertheless.
‘There are expedient laws.’
Whoa! The mana stones glowed and I started pouring the mana I had accumulated over the years into my mana rod. Feeling the boiling sensation of the mana rod, the heated magic circuit was newly expressed.
[Compression]
The gap where the black hand came out, the gate. I stretched out my hand towards it and let out a sigh.
Then he clenched his fist and clenched his fist.
A terrifying sound echoed through the air. At the same time, the cracks started to distort gradually as they spewed out erosion.
――Guuuuuu!!!
Suddenly, a wailing sound came through the gate.
‘Did it happen?’
When I relaxed a little, the black hand that came down to the roof quickly returned over the gate. As it disappears, the void gradually regains its original color. And the sky was completely filled with evidence that the gate was closed.
Still, instead of feeling relieved, I felt a sense of incongruity.
My abilities are still amplified. The perks of ‘Gate Breaker’ have not been deactivated yet.
“Fuck.”
Knowing what this meant, I turned and looked back.
What came into view was the sky with another gate already open. There were demons pouring out.
――――――――――!!!!!
――――――^%^$#$@#$@#!@!!!!
―――!@$!%#^#$^#^%^$#$@#$@#!@!!!!
A loud cry began to pierce my ears.
