    Change in sea lightning properties: black

    [Geukbeon (極藩)]

    Kwaaaaaa!!!

    A black flash that eroded everything filled the entire cavity.

    Craig’s tattered body was helplessly swept away by the enormous amount of heat that was unbelievable to be wielded by a human being.

    The dark radiance that divides and spreads into hundreds of branches fills and collapses all visible space.

    The magical power that began to surge out of the area filled the entire cavity and exploded greatly shaking and twisting the unstable underground space.

    Quaaaaaaa!!

    Falcion’s headquarters was as complex as an anthill. As the space at the bottom begins to shake the upper hallway begins to collapse helplessly.

    As he hit the falling rocks with shield magic Lennok gathered his magic power and took a breath.

    Craig’s face was there so crumpled that even his real body was now unrecognizable.

    I slowly lift my face with crushed eyes and look in the direction where Lennok is.

    “—I wanted to change the world.”

    A much calmer voice came out.

    “I wanted to overcome the limitations of being a wizard and look at the scenery beyond.”

    Craig said as he looked down at the body slowly falling apart.

    “But it seems like that qualification was given to someone other than me.”

    “……..”

    “I feel confident. “I was fortunate to be able to witness it even if only for a moment…”

    A small whisper heard from beyond the body that had become a handful of ashes.

    Even people who burn their whole being with grandiose ideals tend to perish too easily in this world.

    What kind of person can go higher?

    Lennok didn’t know.

    The only one who survived and promised to come next was not the warlock who threw everything but the one who was struggling ugly.

    I suppressed my complicated feelings and raised my head.

    The quarry which had been collapsing ever since a hole was made in the ceiling was now shaking uncontrollably.

    I needed to escape right away but there were more important things to do than that.

    Lennok immediately went to the spot where Craig disappeared and grabbed the hardware that was stored under the floor of the cavity.

    A database originally created to contain artificial intelligence through necromancy.

    Although it has already been damaged due to the previous expansion of the area it would be of great help if we could extract the remaining data.

    half

    “……Damn it.”

    Jaune too must have been aiming for the hardware as Lennoc clicked his tongue and took a step back as soon as he picked it up.

    Only then did Chen and Hina who had been holding on to him so tenaciously also slowly retreat.

    There were no more casualties than this but everyone was covered in blood as if there was no one who did not allow Zaun to attack.

    Just looking at the strength of our troops who were breathing heavily the limits seemed clear.

    A very brief lull. But even at this moment the community is collapsing.

    Jaune looked back at them and sighed.

    “That’s bullshit.”

    “……..”

    “Craig I thought he was going to completely destroy the 50th district but I never thought it would end before he could even get up. “It’s not easy for people to work.”

    “Is now the time to say something like that?”

    Kaang!

    Hina raising her blade as if she had not given up on the battle yet.

    “You have become an apostle of justice.”

    Jaune responded harshly while receiving that sharp gaze.

    “If you fail to control the fragments of the extinct tree I won’t have to see you anymore. I don’t like holding on to plans that have ended. “Let’s leave here soon.”

    “Who said they would send it to you?”

    Chen limped a step forward and raised the curved sword but all he got in return was a sneer.

    “That’s not your decision you idiot. “I’m talking to the wizard standing behind you.”

    Everyone fell silent at the unexpected but irrefutable words.

    Of all the people gathered here only two people could be said to have done their part.

    Zaun Odis succeeded in tying up dozens of people on his own.

    And then Lennok entered the bottom of the cavity alone killed Craig and destroyed his plan.

    Jaune was blatantly revealing that Lennok was the only one qualified to discuss what happened next.

    In fact no one can move forward without agreement between these two powerful parties.

    “……..”

    Lennok silently took the tobacco from his mouth.

    ‘I don’t have much magical power left.’

    Normally you wouldn’t run out of magic power in a battle like this but the problem is that the area is interpreted and unfolds backwards. In the process Craig’s necromantic magic is canceled and a lot of magic power is consumed.

    In addition after using the newly implemented property change unique magic [Extreme Burn] inside the area even Lennok felt quite a burden.

    It will all recover over time but it is difficult to continue the fight right now.

    This was even more so when dealing with an outstanding magician like Jaun.

    After thinking for a moment Lennok slowly nodded.

    “Send me away.”

    “half?”

    It would be difficult for those who were so heated by the excitement of battle to mentally understand.

    But in the end with Craig taken down Lennok and the agent completed all that had to be done.

    There was no advantage to either side in trying to capture Jaun at this point.

    “That’s a wise decision.”

    Jaune nodded and took out three jewels from his arms and put them on his fingers.

    One of the freelancers who was watching this muttered as if he was tired.

    “Even after using so many techniques there was still some left over…”

    Considering that the strength of the freelancers who first rushed in was reduced to less than half this would mean that even after fighting many to one for such a long time there was still strength left.

    If we force ourselves to continue the battle in this ruined community it will only lead to unnecessary losses.

    Zaun Odis was by no means someone who could be treated as an ordinary terrorist.

    When I held the three gems in my hand crushed them and sprinkled the powder on the floor a portal shining with bright blue light opened.

    “It was a shame. “If I had killed you here it would have left a clean aftertaste.”

    Jaune with one foot inside the portal looked back at Lennok and grinned.

    “I lost all the money I had and my friends ran away… I was so unlucky that I ended up meeting all sorts of strange people. “I never imagined that there would be someone who could interpret an artificial domain and imitate it directly.”

    “…………”

    As expected Jaun seemed to perfectly understand how Lennok destroyed Craig’s plan.

    This is proof that unlike his frivolous words and actions he possesses the insight and insight of an outstanding magician.

    It was clear that the enemy could not let down its guard.

    Will we meet again? Considering the difficult fighting style this is not a welcome sight.

    However Jaune seemed to think that way as well and he chuckled and shook his head.

    “What happened? “It doesn’t concern me anymore.”

    “……..”

    “Let’s not see each other again.” Eat well and live well in that rotten city. “Don’t come out for no reason…”

    Jaune said that turned his back without hesitation and threw himself into the portal.

    Lennok stared quietly at his figure disappearing in an instant.

    I thought I had met many people with strange minds but there weren’t many people who were as unpredictable as me.

    Although he says money is the best he thinks about revenge on his friend then changes his words and runs away as if he has never done that again.

    Is it just that they don’t reveal their true feelings or do they just enjoy lying for no reason?

    Even his fighting style is very similar to his personality of telling lies.

    He is the type of person that does not fit well with Lennok. He also had the same feeling of not wanting to see me again.

    Only after realizing that Jaun had completely disappeared did Hina slowly withdraw her sword.

    “……It’s over.”

    The sight of her muttering with a tired face is proof that the fight with Jaun was that intense.

    Considering the way he used all kinds of jewels to create a completely different type of magic it was natural that he felt difficult to deal with.

    Chen also shook his head with a depressed expression.

    “The limit here was just holding my feet. “Maybe if I had a little more time I would have been the one to get down to the bottom of the cavity first.”

    “That’s enough.”

    Lennok answered.

    In any case wasn’t it definitely their contribution to help him meet Craig face to face?

    That was enough.

    Kugugugu…!!

    As they talk the collapse becomes more and more severe.

    Now the rocks that had begun to pile up around the area had filled up to the point where half of the cavity was filled.

    “We need to escape before the whole building collapses.”

    Someone said that but no one here took it seriously.

    Coincidence or not the freelancers who have survived so far are all masters of magic manipulation.

    If his life was in danger just by being buried under a rock he would have died at the hands of terrorists a long time ago.

    Hina said with a face full of determination.

    “I will search the remaining databases here and then escape. “I can’t go back until I find the statement regarding Reisen’s slush fund.”

    “Originally I was planning to interrogate that crazy old man myself and find out… but what can I do if he’s dead?”

    Cheysha pouted and helped out.

    “There is no need for that.”

    Lennok said as he took out the hardware he had retrieved earlier from his arms.

    “I found the database that Craig used personally.”

    “This….!! thank you!!”

    Lennok nodded looking at Hina’s bright expression as she looked at the hardware.

    “Let’s go out. “If we don’t get out of here quickly it won’t be good for us.”

    “What is that…?”

    “By now the freelancers on the Reisen side will have realized that this is the main base.”

    There was no one here who could not understand what Lennok said.
