Ellen Aiden (3)
“···Nonsense.”
The wizard wearing a blue robe murmured.
Hundreds or thousands of pieces of ice were filling the gap between the wizard and Seojihan. It reflected the moonlight from the sky as it was, as if it had been studded with jewels.
The wizard felt a sharp pain in his forearm and looked at it. The remnants of the ice spear that could not be stopped tore the robe, leaving a single red wound. The wizard’s expression gradually hardened. Because the wounded place began to freeze slowly.
What Seo Ji-han used was not just a similar magic. The circuit structure was completely ‘same’ magic. It is impossible. Just as twins have different appearances, even if they learn the same magic, the ‘recipe’ is only for each of them. So I couldn’t accept this situation now.
“You…, what are you?”
Dozens of ice spears are created above the wizard’s head. Even though the voice was far away, the wizard shouted in an angry voice.
“Who are you and use that magic!”
Seo Ji-han got out of Aiden’s arms and slowly stood up. The ice spear that had pierced him had long since disappeared. Even the chill that covered his legs became part of Seo Ji-han’s mana.
“Mr. Jihan…?”
Seo Ji-han looked at his palm. An overloaded mana rod protruded like a blood vessel thickly. It is a recoil by forcibly squeezing out the insufficient magical power with [Mana Conversion].
Because the perk was still active, the conditional activation of [Under the Essence Investigation] occurred. That’s why he was just able to use magic.
Seo Ji-han clenched his fist and looked at Aiden. He was still looking up at him with a blank expression, as if he had not yet come to his senses.
Peanuts! Serge Han clenched her fists towards the top of that stupid face.
“Ah-!”
“Calm down, you idiot.”
[Increases the speed of ‘ice attribute’ magic, reduces mana consumption, and deals with chills.]
The same magic was created behind Seo Ji-han’s back. However, its speed and number are significantly lacking compared to the previous ones. This is because the mana has already run out.
“You’ll probably only survive a little. Inside, find out why you’re the only one who can’t use magic.”
There must be a reason. Even Seojihan uses magic, but why can’t Ellen Aiden use it?
Aiden seemed to have come to his senses only after he had his head stuck.
“—I see.”
Aiden put his hands together with a determined expression and closed his eyes.
Before long, the wizard triggered the spear, and Seo Ji-han fired back.
Ice spears collide with each other and are scattered in all directions. The shattered ice shattered again, and the ground was wet and frozen again.
The collision that occurred in the center gradually began to push the momentum towards the wizard. Although the number of creations is similar, Seo-Han’s rate of re-applying magic is a little faster.
“this···!”
People were coming soon, so I had to either hurry up the operation or run away. But the wizard’s pride did not accept it.
We have to kill Ellen Aiden and that guy together. Once again, it creates dozens of windows. This time, as if it was too much, nosebleeds pour out.
Seo Ji-han also showed off his magic tricks one after another.
“·······Whew!”
Soon the ice spears broke and disappeared.
Seo Ji-han knelt on the floor and vomited gastric juice. Her face is blue from exhaustion of mana. The mana rod that had reached the limit was swelled up as if it was about to explode. The wizard saw the scene and cried out.
“Now! Kill them all!”
At the sorcerer’s cry, the masked people started running at high speed through the dust clouds. There were only a few people inside the building, so the number was well over ten. Aiden didn’t know that. The mana lord on the back of her hand began to draw a new circuit while falling into a high degree of concentration.
Seo Ji-han wiped his lips and raised his head. His stomach turned upside down and he didn’t have the stamina to stand up any longer, but his mind was still clear.
‘Think about it.’
yet. there will still be
Soon, Seo Ji-han felt the moisture coming from the palms of her hands on the ground.
‘··········!’
Under the influence of magic, the ground is wet, and now he can handle the cold. When he thought about it that far, Seo Ji-han forcibly squeezed out not a drop of mana left. She lost her consciousness because of it, as if she had reached her limit.
However, mana is moved at will.
damn! The wet ground, which had been soaked in water, began to freeze at a rapid rate. The feet of those who were stepping on the ground all froze, and a chill rose from them, and even grabbed their legs.
“Aww, it’s too late to try to fix it!”
The person running behind the most kicked off the ground and flew away using the backs of his comrades who had their legs frozen. Before long, he approached his nose, grabbed his sword in reverse, and jumped towards Aiden.
Just right.
Then, there was the sound of snapping fingers.
A person burned with firewood.
“Kah ha ha-!”
As he opened his mouth to scream, the flames swallowed even the sound that was about to escape. He never touched the ground again. The body that had been burned down by the flames and turned into ashes flew in the winter wind.
Aiden got up and looked around. The frozen ground thawed again with the heat of the moment, but no one could move hastily.
“I can see why people like you could put a barrier to restrain my magic. It was made just for me?”
I thought it would be strange to be able to set up a barrier inside the academy, but that wasn’t the case. Rather, it was installed extensively from outside the academy to here. The reason why we were able to set up a barrier enough to cover this large site was simple.
This is because it was a simple sealing magic made to prevent the magic of only one circuit, ‘Ellen Aiden’.
“Hmm. There are few people who interpret my recipe. Are there any traitors in the family?”
“How…! How did you use it? The barrier must still be maintained!”
“Why don’t you roll your head a little.”
Aiden created a spark of fire above his hand.
“Yeah, it’s because I made a new recipe. Although it’s a little inefficient.”
“What-.”
What Aiden just said was incomprehensible. How can new magic be created so quickly? Anyway, at the point where Aiden was able to use magic, the plan was a failure.
The wizard started shooting ice spears to pass the time.
“The plan is a failure! Get out of here!”
win! However, the ice spear sublimated to water vapor in the air due to the heat before it could even get close. Aiden saw the crowd coming from afar, hearing the commotion. There is still plenty of time for them to come.
The red eye looked at everyone with eyes that looked like a bug.
“Don’t think about dying nicely. Oh, except for one person because we have to listen.”
A blue flame began to burn from Ellen Aiden’s hand.
ice melts
the ground is dry
the air gets hot
Those who looked at the blue flames had already given up their will to escape.
I just wished that I could stop breathing as soon as possible.
“········ Again?”
When I opened my eyes, I saw a white ceiling. It’s a view you see all too often these days. Fortunately, he seems to have survived. I don’t know what happened because I lost consciousness.
A familiar voice was heard next to him.
“Yes. I see. I’ll call you later.”
Aiden, who made eye contact with me, hung up the phone. Aiden was also slightly injured and had a slight scratch on his face.
Aiden asked with a bitter smile.
“Are you okay?”
“…to be honest, I don’t like it. How unconscious are you?”
“It hasn’t even been a day yet.”
Because of the loss of consciousness, ‘folk remedies’ were not activated, so my body did not improve much. Perhaps because of the overloaded mana load, his right arm is numb and his leg hurts with a hole in it.
“Fortunately, the legs won’t have any aftereffects. They say it’s fine as long as you don’t use the mana rod for a while.”
“That’s good. I guess this is a hospital?”
“Yes. Healing with divine power is dangerous, so I brought him to a nearby hospital.”
“…I don’t have money.”
“Of course I’ll pay all of that, so don’t worry. Oh, and this one.”
Aiden lifted a black briefcase from the floor. As he handed it over, he felt a heavy feeling in his hand. What made it feel so heavy?
“What is this?”
“It’s a small castle.”
With the help of Aiden, the bag was opened and a gun of a familiar design appeared inside.
‘···Assault Wolf?’
‘Seo Ji-han’ was the gun he was trying to buy in the past. That weapon of misfortune that I deleted from my shopping cart saying it was needlessly expensive.
“The gun you used this time was broken. I heard that you’ve been wanting to buy this gun for a long time.”
·······How do you know that? But for some reason, I thought I shouldn’t ask, so I ignored the question.
I lifted the Assault Wolf with my left hand. I really liked the heavy feeling and the cold metal in my hands. I put it back in my bag and asked Aiden.
“How did you get it? It must be something that is hard to find right away.”
“Of course, I borrowed the power of an acquaintance. You know that there is a Black Hawk successor in the Yoosung Academy, right?”
This is the first setup I’ve ever heard. Blackhawk’s successor was attending the meteor academy? Aiden tilted his head as if he was puzzled by my reaction.
“You didn’t know? Jihan must be someone you know well.”
“No… I really don’t know.”
“Hmm. I don’t really want to show it, so maybe I don’t know.”
“Well. Anyway, thank you. I don’t know the specifications, so I’ll write better. Rather, what happened yesterday?”
Aiden thought for a moment before opening his mouth.
“Fortunately, people who heard the commotion arrived in a narrow way. We managed to capture them all. Now we need to find out who was behind it.”
“Yeah? It seems to have worked out.”
“Yes. I’m glad.”
And after that, there was silence for a while. …to be honest, I’ve been pretty nervous since before. From now on, Aiden will definitely ask how I used my magic. He doesn’t know how to explain himself.
If I’m mistaken for my talent, from now on—.
“Sorry.”
It wasn’t what I expected.
“I’ll be honest.”
As I looked at Aiden, I bowed my head.
“I was happy with that situation at the time. I thought it was an opportunity to owe Mr. Jihan in debt. . . .
what. Didn’t you say you’re sorry for getting involved then…?
He seemed to have a different thought in his words and in his heart. wicked guy.
“Remember when I talked about a person named Noah Park? He has a magical ability to attract people.”
“Uh, remember.”
Aiden bit his lip and hesitated for a moment, then closed his eyes and continued.
“If Noah Park had been in that situation, she would not have had that kind of heart like me, and would have injured herself rather than sacrificing others. Will.”
As I said that, I looked at where I was injured.
“This is why people naturally like and follow Noah Park, not me.
As he spoke, Aiden’s voice gradually began to tremble. I looked down at Aiden’s face with his head bowed down in embarrassment.
“…are you crying?”
“I’m not crying!”
Aiden looked at me furiously, but the corners of his eyes were already slightly swollen. I shook my right arm with a cast.
“What are you mad about? Who made you like this?”
“Oh that···.”
“This is a joke.”
I just knew for sure. They have the same feeling of inferiority, but they are based on pure emotions.
. . . Ellen Aiden at this point was not yet a villain.
“…I wondered what you were talking about, but I wonder if that’s what you’re feeling right now.”
Aiden asks what are you talking about. Depending on what he says here, he might influence future scenarios. I thought carefully and opened my mouth.
“I’m just like you. I don’t want to see people who are smarter than me.”
“I, I said so.”
“I know. Either way, you and I don’t want to lose.”
“I think it’s good to use those emotions you have as a driving force. If you overdo it, it’s poison, but won’t you win someday?”
“You’re talking like a pretty grown-up…?”
adult is right It seems that my mental state is young these days.
“Hmmmm. Anyway, I think so. So who’s going to make a sudden jump?”
Even if I thought about it, it was a shriveled word, so I got embarrassed and shot Aiden at him.
“…then I’ll have to try.”
“Let Seo Ji-han follow me.”
“······hey.”
Aiden smiled brightly, seemingly a little relieved.
After a while, Aiden told him to rest and left, and he was left alone in the hospital room. She was able to rest comfortably in the single room.
I looked at the ceiling and thought about the ‘Blue Flame Witch’.
‘If Ellen Aiden becomes an ally, it will be reassuring.’
It was a dangerous event, but in the end it wasn’t bad. I didn’t lose to Aiden and Chuck, and I was able to have a little influence before becoming a villain.
‘I think the status window has changed quite a bit.’
I needed to check. I think I got the magic, but I’ll have to look at the exact explanation. I tried to open the status window with my phone.
‘Well?’
Then a new notification arrived in the system.
[*’Ellen Aiden’ is ‘like’ you.]
I didn’t know if I should like this or not.
Aiden closed the door and went out into the hallway. When I touched her cheek, it felt like she had a fever.
‘Is it a side effect of the new drink…’
I couldn’t figure out why this was happening. At that moment, a man in a suit with a sword around his waist approached Aiden.
“miss.”
“Oh, did you wait?”
Aiden and the man started walking down the hallway of the hospital together. And we talked in a quiet voice.
“What happened to the wizard?”
“Now, after dissecting, we’re analyzing the mana rod and analyzing the magic. Once that’s done, we’ll know who the master is.”
“What about your grandfather?”
“As you said, I lost the news. . . . But are you really okay?”
“It’s not like this has happened once or twice. It’s not just me. Besides, I’ve burned everything except that wizard, so don’t touch me in haste…”
Aiden stopped walking when he saw someone he met in the hallway. The man followed and stopped to see who Aiden was looking at.
“…why are you here?”
There was a woman of the same age with a calm impression with light blue hair. She nodded her head as if she had also seen Aiden.
‘Lian Arwell’. He is Park Noah’s servant. Arwell, who was small in stature, opened his mouth with a gentle voice.
“I was also admitted through the Yoosung Academy, so I had to undergo a physical examination.”
“What is admission? Isn’t it something you follow with a ‘weapon’?”
“I originally intended to do that, but Noah Park said no and was very opposed to it. I am a person, not a weapon.”
“Ugh…”
“If you have anything to say to Noah Park, I will deliver it to you.”
“···There is no such thing. Let’s go.”
Aiden spoke coldly and passed Arwell at a quick pace. The man greeted Arwell and hurriedly followed Aiden.
Lian Arwell looked at Aiden’s back and bowed his head.
“I wish you all the best in the future. Ellen Aiden-sama.”
