44 – Actions speak louder than words – 3
Serena, who had been pushed back a long time, instinctively tried to slow down by inserting World Eaters as soon as her body touched the ground, but even the World Eaters covered in mana couldn’t penetrate the floor of this strange space.
All I could hear was a metallic sound.
It’s not full of sex, but it’s not lacking either.
While rubbing the tip of the World Eater’s sword against the floor as much as possible, Serena, who somehow stopped herself by straining her legs, bit her lip and looked at Charlotte.
Charlotte stood there, not much different from when she first entered this space.
“It was a very simple bait, but it was really funny how he snapped it like a wild beast.
The corner of Charlotte’s mouth as she looked at Serena was an obvious sneer. Countless magic circles spread behind Charlotte, who walked toward Serena with footsteps clattering.
Serena took up her World Eater once more and took a stance.
Not hurt yet. Although it was unable to withstand the impact and was blown away, it did not break any bones or break any muscles.
In other words, it means that you can still fight intact. Serena changed her strategy. The confrontation between power and power was almost boiling, but it was meaningless if teleportation could not be prevented.
Then it’s just a bell.
The acceleration of time due to the strengthening of the body was equally applied to both Charlotte and herself.
After using it for a long time, the flow of real time became hazy, but it should have applied to that year as well.
Yes, no matter what, he himself is a knight. It was enough for Venda to focus on the act itself. faster and sharper.
Serena put the World Eater back into the scabbard.
Seeing that, Charlotte slightly raised her eyebrows to the center. It was because I couldn’t figure out what the hell it was doing.
Instead, he brought his right hand in front of his left shoulder, ready to swing it sideways.
At the same time, all the magic circles were fragmented and disappeared.
There was a moment of silence between the two.
“……What did you just do?”
Charlotte glared at Serena fiercely. Charlotte’s keen eyes caught what had just happened.
The magic circle was cut.
The magic circle is something that cannot be touched even among wizards who show a considerable difference in their skills if they do not intervene in time. It was torn like pieces of paper.
Serena was aiming at Charlotte with the tip of the World Eater that had been pulled out of its scabbard at some point. It was clear what that meant.
Didn’t you react? is this me?
Charlotte’s expression twisted slightly. There was an intolerable feeling of humiliation.
I barely suppressed the desire to express my anger right now. In this situation, it was rather a loss to prioritize emotion over reason.
Calmly grasping the gains and losses, Charlotte forcibly calmed her simmering emotions.
When we fought at the edge of the continent a few years ago, it didn’t seem like we had reached the level of cutting magic circles yet.
At that time, Serena only used the method of breaking through by receiving magic from the front through her strong body strengthening ability.
That alone was enough of a threat, but overall, Charlotte had a slight advantage.
Even though it was a battle where it was impossible to say who won easily and who won, if you look inside, you could say that it was a tug-of-war between Charlotte, who poured magic all the time, and Serena, who counterattacked by receiving it with her body.
Since Charlotte was the one with the right to attack first, of course she had to win.
“Cut.”
“You mean the magic circle. I cut it.”
“Yes.”
Serena put the World Eater back into the scabbard, crouched down slightly, and prepared to leap forward with her sword.
Charlotte just stood there, clenching her fists. That year, he achieved much steeper growth than he thought.
Of course, Charlotte herself had grown tremendously at the age of 24 to the extent that she was confident that she would not be defeated even against the entire continent.
However, since then, I have lived for over 100 years, but to be able to see through the magic circle by a mere 24-year-old kid. It was absurd.
“then…….”
Charlotte’s hair started to flutter. It meant that the release of mana was maximized.
Serena was standing casually. I didn’t feel any emotions like feeling fear or fighting against the strong.
It has been so, and it will be so in the future.
No matter how strong that bitch was, it didn’t matter to Serena. He simply interrupted the happy times between his lord and himself, so it was nothing more than a cut.
Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm
Just like it did for other women. It didn’t matter at all whether the target was the king of this country or the year that reached the pinnacle of magic.
A knight who would stay by his lord’s side for the rest of his life was such a being.
“Wherever you want to run wild, you beastly bitch.”
Simultaneously, nearly a hundred magic circles were drawn in the air. Serena crouched down a little more, then burst out with explosive acceleration.
Hell awaited him with its mouth wide open. He could feel the flow of mana he had vaguely experienced before.
purgatory.
It was the same magic that Charlotte had written on a special scroll and handed over. Of course, the power that was manifested now was unparalleled.
It was a natural result since it was inevitably less powerful than drawing and activating the magic circle at the point in time written on the scroll in the first place.
Serena took out the World Eater. And he jumped head-on into Purgatory magic.
Charlotte watched Serena leap into purgatory and activated all the magic circles drawn in the air.
Nearly triple-digit magic poured into the place where Purgatory and Serena were entangled.
Mana is full and overflowing. To deplete Charlotte’s mana, you’d have to devise a strategy for attrition battles, not in one battle, but in months.
All the magic poured into one spot was shattered, and Serena jumped out of it.
Charlotte was not taken aback. It was expected anyway. Calmly prepared the next magic. Without drawing a magic circle or chanting.
It was a very simple solution. If that bitch could cut a magic circle, then she could use magic without drawing a magic circle.
Easy to say, it was an act that shook the very foundation of magic.
It was surprising that magic could be used without a chant and a magic circle, but the fact that the power was almost the same was an achievement that was enough to upset the magic academia and the Mage Tower.
Although Charlotte, the person in charge, did it with the thought that it would work if she tried it.
A transparent blade appeared out of nowhere and grazed Serena. It was sheer instinct that Serena was able to stop the invisible blade.
I don’t think there was a magic circle just now, but as soon as I thought about it, the next blade flew.
This time, he twisted his body to avoid it. It was a magic that was activated without drawing a magic circle on the shadowless window, but there was almost no difference in power from the magic that was activated by drawing a magic circle.
Serena opened her eyes. If there is no means to detect the activation of magic, it is enough to counter it with intuition.
And he actually did it.
It was Charlotte’s turn to widen her eyes as she watched Serena run away, blocking or avoiding all of the magic that suddenly jumped out of the air and spread relentlessly.
Both of them are using almost maximum body reinforcement, so there won’t be much difference in their reaction speed.
That just meant that he was doing that based on his intuition. Actually, that thing is working.
At this point, there was only one feeling that each other had for each other.
If you don’t kill it now, it’s a year that will eventually catch your ankle.
Serena ran toward Charlotte, scraping the blade of her World Eater on the floor. At the end of the World Eater rubbing against the floor, blue flames rose.
The blue flame immediately ate up the mana wrapped around the sword and swelled up.
Charlotte spread the distance by teleportation and drew 7 huge magic circles in the sky. It was an action because he was sure that he would not be able to cut the magic circle while wearing that blue flame.
From each magic circle drawn in the sky, meteors with fire from hell began to fall down. The endless black sky heated up.
Serena, covered in blue flames, leaped into the air, and seven meteors were about to collide with their huge body toward a single target.
Suddenly, the space itself collapsed.
Serena, who had been shot up by Charlotte, was throwing blue flames down on the floor before she knew it, and the meteors that fell on Serena were falling far away and exploding on the poor floor.
In a completely unexpected situation, Serena and Charlotte stared blankly at the place where they would normally have collided.
“What is this…?”
“What happened…?”
Serena, like Serena, and Charlotte, like Charlotte, couldn’t hide their embarrassment.
Serena knew that nothing was wrong with her intuition, and Charlotte that there was nothing magical about her.
Who the hell did it to twist that gigantic space without any sign or change? Even that, it was not even detected at all by the non-standard beings such as Serena and Charlotte.
Before they could properly grasp the situation as to what had happened, the bodies of the two were thrown out of the subspace.
