Water lily (1)
I quietly followed Drakan’s back. Riel, who was standing next to him, kept staring at him, but he didn’t care. Because something more important than that just came to mind.
‘The keyword that appeared earlier is….’
That Drakhan Beatrice is a ‘mana interpreter’ and a benefactor of ‘Seojihan’. Being a mana interpreter is like a nickname obtained through the additional power of personality.
I focused my consciousness on the mana flowing through my body. It’s no different from usual, but it turns out to be a bomb that explodes over time… I still don’t feel it
‘By the way, Drakhan can solve this?’
I never dreamed that the mana problem, which was sentenced to a time limit, would be solved in a place like this. Is it high-risk, high-return?
‘Given this kindness is probably an extension of the benefactor.’
I put it aside because it wasn’t important, but now that I think about it, Seo Ji-han’s past is strange. It’s because even when the gate happened, a child who was not even an adult survived the phenomenon.
At that moment, a certain memory flashed through my mind at high speed. I stopped walking to think of it.
“hey. Why aren’t you following me?”
Then Riel, who was ahead, stopped walking and spoke to me. Drakhan also turned her body and looked at me.
“Wait a minute.”
In order not to miss this clue, he reached out and sent a doctor telling him not to disturb. And he slowly pulled the string of memories that had drooped like a thin thread. I barely managed to get it out, and a memory flashed across my consciousness.
“Uh…!”
“crazy. Why all of a sudden?”
Riel looked at me with strange eyes at my exclamation. But she didn’t have time to care about it.
‘…that was the dream. I forgot.’
There was a memory of Seo Ji-han, who dreamed for a moment when he lost consciousness after being sucked into Maiden Curse’s sanctuary.
A voice heard above his head as he watched the gate suck everything around him.
[…are you alive? You’re lucky.]
I’m not sure of the voice as it relied on memory to the end, but I guessed that the owner of that voice was Drakan.
“hey. Why do you keep getting bruised?”
Riel approached me with a smirk, wondering if it was uncomfortable to be delayed. She then tapped her fist as if she was going to come to her senses. She seems to be flirting with others, but since she’s a weapon person, this hurts too…
I grabbed my arm and looked at Drakhan.
“No, that…. I don’t know where I’m going now.”
“Are you asking that now? You are going to a place where there are no people.”
Needless to say, this memory came to mind.
I followed the tail and ran out of the back of the dormitory. It was still in a remote place, so I didn’t see anyone passing by.
“ruler. This will be fine.”
As Drakhan looked around and spoke, I raised my hand.
“But what does it mean to take care of my mana?”
“it. If you leave it alone, it will explode and die. I learned the attributes at random without even being able to handle them properly.”
“What is that expression? Are you afraid of my kindness?”
“no. Usually everyone who sees that kind of thing asks how he learned magic. It seems like you don’t care about that.”
At my words, Drakhan put on an annoyed expression on his face.
“Yeah, you must have magical talent. Because your parents were wizards.”
Suddenly, I felt a shock in the back of my head.
“What is that…. Am I from the top?”
“ah. I lost my memory, so… It wasn’t, it was literally people who learned magic. As from Earth.”
“her···.”
Was this the reason that this body had magical talents…? I never thought that I would follow the traces of ‘Seo Ji-han’ in the place where I stepped in because of the gate.
‘no. There’s no point in finding out about this now.’
It just satisfies curiosity. What I need to focus on right now is how to fix my mana conflict.
“Hmmm. So how do you do it?”
“it? show your body Riel.”
Whoo! A black light enveloped Riel, creating a long sword that could be gripped with both hands. Drakhan grabbed it with one hand and lifted it lightly over her shoulder.
‘Isn’t the soul iron used?’
you should definitely have it
Then a scream was heard from somewhere. Naturally, his gaze turned to the direction the sound was heard.
···No matter who hears it, it is Park Noah’s voice. Are you already relaxing and hanging out with the villagers? It’s not like I’m at the level of friendliness for nothing. Aiden will grab you by the back of your neck.
Ignoring him, Drakhan pointed his sword at me.
“For once, try to instill mana into your sword.”
“Mana?”
I pulled out the ego sword first. But I couldn’t go any further and stayed there.
Giving mana to the sword is a different sense from [Matan]. It’s a skill that a skilled swordsman possesses, but it’s difficult because it’s a skill other than [Weapon Skill]. [Concentration] is not a trait that can be adapted to swords.
[I’ll help you.]
As the silent ego sword spoke, I felt something forcefully being pulled up inside my body.
Quang! At the same time, a blue light was emitted from the ego sword. It’s made only of my mana. It was a pretty flashy effect to me, but I started to feel dizzy because I was pouring mana.
I’m not that high in magic ability. At this speed, which is needlessly fast, it will run out in less than 10 seconds.
It reminded me of this special.
At that moment, Drakhan slammed the ground and swung Riel.
Kaang! The black blade collided with the ego sword. It was such a shock that I could see sparks bouncing in my eyes. Fortunately, I was able to react reflexively because I got used to the sudden appearance of the perks.
A heavy force weighs on my body. You can feel that someone is watching you, but you have to do your best in this area.
He clenched his teeth and barely sat down.
“Huh?”
Drakhan’s voice seemed to be admiring.
middle of the tower. Unlike the 25th floor, everyone was walking around with all their nerves on their heads without a single smile.
“result?”
“I can say that it is half success and half failure.”
A wizard standing in front of someone began to recite a report.
“The experiment of discharging the tower’s ‘disaster’ with space magic was successful. As a result, the second plan was also successful. But as soon as the disaster was released, another gate was regenerated within the tower.”
“Hmm. So it sounds like it’s impossible to slow down the tower’s erosion by venting it outside.”
“That’s right. It seems that Top-ju has already written his hand.”
The old man clicked his tongue as if displeased with the name Tapju. The wizard took a moment to catch his breath, and then read it again.
“And I also discovered a village that lives in the ‘Netherlands’ area. Do you have any plans for this part?”
said the old man firmly.
“If it is impossible to slow down the erosion, you will have to climb the tower with a body adapted to it.”
The old man’s eyes turned to one side. An open case was placed on the table. Inside was a gun with a black ‘Black Hawk’ logo on it.
“ruler. So, what is your opinion as a guardian of Noah Park?”
“Do whatever you want.”
The old man spoke to the man sitting next to him. To that question, he answered with the attitude that he was not interested in a man equipped with at least ten different types of weapons.
“If he had died anyway, the resurrection would have started on the 25th floor. Oh, and you’d better keep an eye on Ron Ahart and the 25th floor manager. It seems to be moving around in vain.”
The swordsman who finished his words jumped up from his seat. It wasn’t an action to take in front of the ‘manager on the 50th floor’, but it was acceptable disrespect for him.
“Hmm. I see.”
The swordsman left behind the words of ‘Aiden’ and went out of the building. And he looked up to the sky.
The sky is dark.
The point at which the publicly known erosion reached the 60th floor. However, the erosion of the ‘103rd tower column’ has already reached the 59th floor. Acceleration was gradually getting out of control.
“Time is always short.”
The man who murmured quietly pulled out a black sword and walked towards the stairs leading to the 60th floor.
With the status of Park Noah’s protector, he was another person with the title of ‘Weapon Master’.
Of course, there is no way I can defeat Drakhan head-on. He has more experience as an untitled than Noah Park, and has superior physical abilities.
It will be hard to follow As my body was exhausted and my mana ran out, I fell into exhaustion after a long time. As I lay down and lift her chest, Drakhan sat down next to me. There was no sign of exhaustion at all.
“Let’s do it, then.”
“…what are you doing?”
Are you going to do this again?
“Now that we run out of mana, we have to deal with it.”
Drakhan wiggled his fingers as if to get up. I put my hands on the ground and struggled to get up. body creaks
“Looking at the speed of the mana emitted from the sword earlier, the ability to handle mana is top-notch. It would be easier to get a feel for it.”
“there. What do you mean by sense? Wasn’t it supposed to solve the mana conflict?”
“Um, isn’t there too much explanation? In this case, we have to go into theory… okay. Why don’t you think that’s a problem?”
Drakhan asked, after thinking for a moment.
I know the answer because I’ve heard from Carroll why this is a problem.
“It’s a collision. Clash between mana attributes.”
“right. So, now that you have multiple attributes, how is mana delivered when you use magic?”
“Yeah…, if you use the magic of the fire attribute, that attribute will move.”
“Wrong.”
Drakhan shook his head resolutely.
“It’s not just the mana of the fire attribute that flows. If you use magic now, all the attributes will flow together. Because the subject is mana of the fire attribute, fire magic is manifested.”
“But in the process, mana keeps crashing, and the mana rod that moves that mana becomes overloaded and eventually explodes.”
···What is he saying now?
This was something that I could not understand well even with the magical knowledge I had melted.
“I have never heard of such a thing from another wizard.”
At that, Drakhan said with a cynical smile.
“Just because you memorized the formula doesn’t mean you realize the rationale. How many attributes do you have now?”
“Wait. What are some of my attributes…”
He folded his fingers and recalled the magic he was using.
“Fire, water, ice. And since it has divine power, there are a total of five, white and black.”
“A lot. If you run out of mana like now, you can definitely feel the presence of each of these attributes. Close your eyes and focus on your body.”
I closed my eyes and tried to meditate, but even after time passed, I didn’t know. I’ve only used mana so far, because I’ve never been conscious of anything more than that. If I wanted to use mana anyway, [Mana Conversion – Mana Mana Mana] moved me according to my consciousness.
When I opened my eyes, Drakhan was standing next to me, arms crossed, watching me. I guess this is not enough.
Whoops! At that time, Riel is threateningly thrust into the floor. Irritated by that movement, I closed my eyes again and focused on my body.
‘I’d rather see it visually than feel it.’
Whoa! Apparently this was the correct answer for me. Visually, I could feel the mana flowing from my body more directly.
“As there is no mana, you will be able to feel the presence of the attributes it possesses even more.”
Perhaps he was getting more and more focused, and it felt as if Drakhan’s voice was being heard above the surface of the water. Unconsciously, I focused on the attributes I possessed accordingly.
I know what Drakhan feels like. I could feel the properties mixed together in the faintly flowing mana.
[Take up only one attribute among them. Not miscellaneous mana, but pure mana properties⎯.]
Drakhan’s voice was no longer heard. But he could understand what he was saying.
‘You want to raise only one attribute?’
It’s not difficult.
[Mana Conversion – Mana Mana Mana].
Now that I am feeling my mana clearly, if I try to bring out only one attribute, the characteristic will meet my will.
I caught the source that was quietly emitting heat. and pulled it up. The blue light flowing through the mana road had pure energy that was only hot without other impurities.
When it touched my fingertips, I opened my eyes. The mana flowing from the hand that came into view was definitely blue. But what I felt was pure heat.
Whoops. Although the flow quickly disappeared due to Drakhan’s personality.
‘However.’
I felt what it felt like. Drakhan saw it and murmured.
“Fast.”
At the same time, the smartphone in my arms rang.
