#109. Opening (3)
“Nonsense… this is impossible…!”
Visar, a low-ranking fighter of Murcred, gritted his teeth and shouted.
He clenched his teeth so hard that blood flowed out between his lips.
What was visible above the enemy’s tower car was a fireball that continued to grow to an enormous size.
“Kalkar reported it incorrectly.”
“You said it was estimated to be around 2 circles, but is that really 2 circles?”
“Even if the magic output is aided by artifacts…!”
The feelings that Visar felt were the same as those of his other four colleagues.
One of the factors that determines a wizard’s level is the speed at which he casts his spells.
It could be said that the ability was determined by the number of circles.
This was because if there were multiple circles, it was possible to draw mana from each circle simultaneously and implement magic.
“3 circles… no, if you look at the speed alone, 4 circles.”
“At that age?”
The question was valid.
Even the 2nd circle was a stage that most talented people would reach throughout their lives.
“Or if the skill to handle mana itself is outstanding….”
“… … .”
Everyone was silent.
Flame magic boasts high power among magic that uses natural elements, but its disadvantage is that it is proportionally slow to manifest.
But if it was possible to create a fireball of that size in such a short amount of time with just talent.
The magnitude of that talent is….
“… … .”
Everyone in the room felt a chill for a moment.
“He’s a guy who has the talent to dispel magic. There might be something else we don’t know about.”
I had to think that way.
Whether it was talent or the 4th circle, either way it felt like a bad joke.
widely!
Everyone simultaneously took something out of their arms.
He took a few red gems the size of his fingernail and popped them into his mouth.
Gulp!
The gems that had disintegrated within their bodies began to spread red mana throughout their bodies.
“As expected… this is the best way to use the medicine.”
“Keuhi, keuehihi.”
My eyes dilate and my mood lifts.
An indescribable energy races through your blood, and an intense thrill envelops your entire body like electricity running down your spine.
My body starts trembling.
The head becomes stiff and hard.
and.
“I will kill you.”
“Okay. Let’s kill him.”
“Kill him.”
“Kill him.”
I’m angry.
The anger directed at the opponent from afar boils over uncontrollably.
A rage as hot as the heat of the fireball that began to expand and roar above his head again.
Hurrah!
The fireballs of the five wizards reached the size of a medium-sized vehicle.
Kill meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee──!!
Kill meee …
It was shot with a shout.
In a split second, the fireball flew towards its target and disappeared from sight.
“Hehe, hehehehe.”
“Cookie— Whew— Kick—!”
The five wizards couldn’t stop laughing at the sight.
The power boiling over my entire body made me feel like I was the master of the world.
After all, the greatest virtue in the world is strength.
Because if you have the strength, there is nothing you can’t do.
They were so drunk that they didn’t even notice.
The fact that their fireballs, which had been getting smaller and smaller in my sight, suddenly got bigger.
Hwaruk.
Ray’s fireballs fired simultaneously engulf the enemy’s fireballs.
Kwaaaaang───!!
It skimmed over enemy vehicles and crashed into the road behind.
“… … !”
“Oh, shit, what the hell is that! What is that!”

The pursuit party was astonished.
The fireballs fired by the enemy were roughly five times larger than those fired by our magicians.
The roof where the fireball passed through was dented and melted.
The rearview mirror showed a huge pothole forming in the road.
What was most shocking was that the five wizards who had been standing on the roof of the vehicle had disappeared without a trace.
It burned down.
Without leaving even a trace.
Fortunately, the boy misaimed and the fireball missed the vehicle.
But that alone was enough to make me lose my will to fight.
The gunfight stopped in an instant as a massive wave of violence swept across the area.
Both friend and foe.
“… … .”
At that moment, the boy was letting go of the anger he had been building up.
‘It’s definitely easier to control my emotions than before. Compared to the old days, my anger subsides quickly.’
The boy felt good about it, as if he had achieved some growth.
‘And the ring’s performance is better than expected….’
Ssuk.
As I released my grip, I saw Walter’s ring emitting a faint red light.
The red gem in the ring was far more powerful than other charging stones.
‘There is no change to the fact that the stored mana is unrefined, raw mana… .’
There wasn’t a huge penalty, except that it was of lower quality than refined mana.
He is in a state where the floodgates of his emotions are normally closed.
There was no need to worry about becoming addicted to mana by using raw mana.
…the only reason I was so angry in sector 49.
‘Because I was in an extremely mentally exhausted state.’
When using the charging stone, you just have to be careful about that part.
Booooooow… … !
The enemy vehicles began to slow down and the distance between them increased as they stopped pursuing.
Ray’s eyes were filled with the sight of drivers receiving radio messages from someone.
*
Everyone inside the container had a blank expression on their face.
Even though I clearly saw it with my own two eyes, I couldn’t be sure of what I saw.
thud!
“ah.”
It wasn’t until Ray jumped down from the container platform and revealed himself that everyone came to their senses.
“Ray, the magic just now was….”
“Enemy wizards all at once….”
The heat that was still clinging to Ray’s body made me feel real.
My heart was pounding.
My heart was pounding with intense excitement and elation.
He had blown away five enemy magicians, who had been like a terrible nightmare until now, with one blow.
“Amazing! Really amazing!”
“We might actually win the war!”
A flood of praise.
The excited gestures of the organization members.
But Ray was calm.
He just stared at the emotions fluctuating in people’s bowls with a polite, expressionless face.
He was neither proud nor arrogant about his own accomplishments.
Instead, Veronica was pleased.
“It’s our Ray!”
“Ohhh! Ray!”
“That’s amazing!”
Cheers erupted here and there.
“I am Ray’s sun!”
“Oh! Veronica! You are Ray’s sun!”
“The sun! You are amazing!”
“Oh my God! It’s the sun!”
In fact, there was no member of the organization who understood what Ray’s sun meant.
But seeing them shouting like that, it was definitely something great.
At this point, I just felt like I couldn’t stand it without letting out all these intense emotions.
And Veronica’s heart was also filled with emotion.
“I am Ray’s dazzling sun─!”
That was the moment when Veronica was shaking.
Thud─!
The car started spinning around with a popping sound.
Personnel were forced to unintentionally test their own strength by grabbing handles attached to the inside of the container.
thud!
It was only after the car crashed into something and stopped that I was able to stagger out.
“Brother, are you okay? Veronica is….”
“I, I’m fine.”
“First, first, understand the situation.”
“Yes, I understand. Kale! What’s going on up ahead!”
“Here! The right front tire is blown!”
“What? Suddenly?”
The front of the car became noisy.
Ray, the only one who came out without stumble, looked around and approached the edge of the defense.
As I cast my gaze into the distance, I saw enemy vehicles that had stopped pursuing me at the entrance to the bridge.
‘It’s not their attack. The defenses are still up.’
Ray looked down the road the vehicle had passed on and was able to immediately discover the cause of the flat tire.
‘Magic. You were aiming for the protection.’
It was a thorn.
The asphalt on the road had deformed and was sticking out in the shape of sharp thorns the size of a human palm.
There are a dozen of them.
With that number and that level of sharpness, it’s probably a good thing that only one wheel broke.
“… … .”
Of course, magic can only be activated if there is a wizard.
Also, it is usually not difficult to time the spikes in front of a moving vehicle.
However, all five wizards who were part of the pursuit party became air and were only 1 circle.
The moment I realized the situation.
Ray rolled over.
Two pairs of kukris, held in reverse, slammed down where Ray had been.
Kkwaddeuk───!!
Tore the defense like a piece of paper,
Kwaaaaang──!!
I took a picture of the asphalt.
Ray immediately pulled out his knife and took up a stance, pulling out his rolled body.
“They dodged our attack.”
“how?”
“therefore.”
There were two opponents who appeared before my eyes.
Gray coat.
An appearance with an angular impression like a rock.
A height that is far above average and a stocky physique that can be felt even on the court.
‘There are two rings there.’
Ray looked up.
It appeared that the attack had occurred by falling from the steel structure that runs along both sides of the bridge.
“My body feels better than I thought.”
“You don’t look like the type to train your body and fight like us. It was the same with the fire magic earlier.”
The two men were talking with expressionless faces, and red mana was flashing and flowing throughout their bodies.
‘Reinforcement magic.’
The two men’s rings were mostly filled with red and gray mana.
I could intuitively feel that these were magicians specialized in close combat.
At that moment, a gunshot rang out.
“It’s a wizard! Shoot him! Don’t give him a chance to use magic!”
At McCully’s shout, everyone except the tire changers pulled their triggers simultaneously.
However, the two men’s reactions were a little faster than that.
Kkuddeuk!
The asphalt rose up, creating a wall in front of the two men.
All the bullets that flew through the air fell to the floor, leaving only small scratches on the wall.
‘…gray mana.’
It was the mana used to create the wall.
The main ingredients are the elements of maintenance, blocking, and binding.
Sector 49, when I first met Graham, we had a tug-of-war using a sphere of gray mana.
Testing each other’s control over the elements.
Among the elements, those three types were the ones with the strongest bonds and the most difficult to change.
And now.
‘It’s not easy. It’s hard to tear down the wall.’
Not only was the nature of the elements that made up the wall itself a characteristic, but the level of perfection of the magic itself was also high, proving that the two men were skilled.
“Tongue, bro. What should I do? Keep shooting….”
“Oh, where did those monsters come from…?”
The squad members’ voices were panicked.
McCully gritted his teeth.
Up until now, the enemy magicians’ defenses could still be destroyed by pouring bullets on them.
But I didn’t think that thick stone wall could be broken down with a gun or something.
‘What decision should I make… .’
If each squad took turns firing, there was no problem in continuing the attack without stopping.
However, the bullets were not infinite.
It was an even more valuable resource in times of depletion.
…but.
The moment I stop shooting, I worry that the enemy might counterattack.
I also think that by maintaining the stone wall, you are draining the enemy’s ‘mana’.
It made it difficult for McCully to easily call for a cease-fire.
“Cease fire.”
Then Ray’s voice was heard.
The soft voice, amplified by magic, clearly entered everyone’s ears.
“Cease fire──!!”
The gunfire has stopped.
Silence has fallen.
Crumbs fell from the stone walls, through which a cloud of dust rose.
Thud! Thud duduk!
In it, Ray’s voice rang out.
“I’ll buy you some time, so return to the hideout as soon as you finish changing the tire.”
Although McCauley was clearly the ultimate authority in the room, no one questioned Ray’s orders.
Everyone knew.
The strongest being among them is the boy in front of them, and following the boy’s words is the right choice.
Staying won’t help.
No, it would rather be a hindrance.
McCully nodded to his squadmates.
Everyone took positions so that they could keep their guns on the enemy but board the container as soon as maintenance was complete.
“They say he ran away.”
“It’s okay if you run away. But you can’t let him go unharmed. That would diminish Allegiant’s enjoyment.”
The two men nodded at each other and slowly walked towards the vehicle.
And at that moment.
Kkwaddeuk───!!
A stone wall rose up in front of the two men.
No, it would be more correct to see that as a barrier.
Because it was so wide and huge that there was no room to get to the other side.
The two men slowly turned their heads.
I could see a boy with his palms on the ground.
Like them, with expressionless faces.
