I Became the Genius Bastard of a Noble Dark Clan – 44

Chapter 44

Episode 44

‘It’s different from regular magic. Definitely.’

first.

When I woke up in the body of this ‘Christian’, there was one thing I felt very fortunate about.

The point is that he is the bloodline of the Dark Maga, one of the most prestigious families in the Magic Empire.

In fact, Dark Maga was relatively weak among the 12 prestigious magic families.

The top five powers among the famous magic schools are as follows.

Mysterious Maga.

Commander Maga.

Black magic wand.

Destruction Mark.

Curse Mark.

Among these, in particular, Mystery, Command, and Oblivion possessed powers that could not be compared to other Magas.

But even so, Christian was thankful that he was not in such a place, but was of the Dark Maga bloodline.

It was all because of this darkness.

‘The power that opens up the possibility of becoming a true transcendent being as a mine.’

[If there is someone who can perfectly make dark magic their own, that person will threaten the throne of the Demon Emperor.]

It was a story secretly floating around the Magic Empire.

It wasn’t a rumor.

Even the Nordians of Nogaju were unable to completely make all of the dark magic their own.

Each time the black smoke erupts, a certain amount is erupted.

The amount of Holy Darkness absorbed by the Nogaju Nordian was slightly less than 80%.

Nevertheless, he was one of the strongest among the demon lords.

There was even talk that even the head of the Maga family, considered one of the top five, would be defeated by the Nordians.

It’s not even 80%, but it’s like this.

And the Dark Maga is the ancestor of the beginning.

He was the first to accept dark magic, and accepted over 90% of the dark magic, becoming the third-ranked demon lord.

But even those ancestors did not accept all 100% of it.

So what if you completely conquer 10% of dark magic?

‘It can even surpass Ma-Hwang.’

Thanks to the Black Sword, Chris was able to plan his way to the top of the Magic Empire.

Chris took a deep breath.

And he flew into the darkness.

Pure darkness enveloped him as if embracing him, and his figure was soon completely consumed by the darkness and disappeared.

* ? ?* ? ?*

The Dark Maga was turned upside down.

It was because of the results of the Seongheuksik.

All but one were eliminated.

It is said that this is something that the unbelievable bastard Christian did.

“That’s ridiculous.”

“The old master was attacked by that scoundrel?”

“They say that all the other young masters of the collateral lineage were also affected.”

“Is that possible?”

The minions were dumbfounded and chattered.

Something that could never happen happened.

No matter how great someone is, there is a limit to how well they can compete against opponents of the same level.

But you’re saying he single-handedly defeated four rivals?

That bastard too?

Of course, everyone reacted in disbelief.

“You didn’t cheat, did you? Like using a forbidden magical tool.”

“That’s right. How could that scoundrel defeat the old master?”

“We need to investigate properly and impose severe punishment!”

The men assumed that Christian had definitely played some trick, and they were excited and shouted for punishment.

But then an unexpected voice was heard.

“There’s no need for that.”

“!!”

The mines turned their heads in surprise.

“Second princess!”

Maybe in my late teens?

A beautiful girl with a cold impression.

It was the second princess, Jupienne.

“You don’t have to worry about that bastard Christian.”

“Oh, why?”

The men made faces as if they couldn’t understand.

The second princess, Jupien and Roin, were very close as siblings. Unlike other siblings, the two cherished each other very much.

however?

“I won’t be able to return from the Holy Land alive anyway.”

“……!!”

“You’re trying to fill a vessel with so much darkness that the end is obvious. You won’t even be able to leave a corpse behind.”

The mines gulped.

‘Come to think of it.’

It’s already been two days since the Seongheuksik.

But Christian still did not come out of the Holy Land.

“Even Lord Noga had a limit to absorbing the Holy Darkness. It’s obvious what kind of vessel that scoundrel is. Maybe he’s already dead as a result of his greed. There’s no need to worry about him anymore.”

The men nodded awkwardly.

The amount of black dust that erupts once every two to three years is not large.

But that doesn’t mean it’s something I can monopolize on my own.

Since it was a bowl the size of a Nordic Nogaju, it could absorb close to 80%, but in normal cases, even if it absorbed as much as possible, it could only absorb about 60%.

If you can’t hold out any longer, your core will collapse and you will die.

Jupien walked forward with an indifferent expression. He was going to see the old man who had fainted and collapsed.

‘How dare you.’

Jupienne bit her red lips tightly.

Old man and Jupienne.

The two are direct descendants, but unlike the other brothers, their father was not the Marquis of Langham.

Their fathers died in battle against the Union forces, and they grew up relying on each other.

But my beloved little brother ended up like this.

Although they said his life was not in danger, the old man’s future was now over.

Since I haven’t gotten even a little bit of the Holy Black, no one will treat me as a direct descendant anymore.

‘I can’t forgive you.’

Jupienne’s eyes became heavy.

I don’t think that will happen though.

If that bastard Christian Mannani comes back alive.

I’ll make you pay the price.

* ? ?* ? ?*

A few more days passed.

But Christian still did not come out of the Holy Land.

The people of Dark Maga believed that Christian died in the Holy Land as punishment for his greed.

People’s interest gradually disappeared.

“Idiot.”

“If you act greedily without knowing the subject, you will be punished.”

Just one person.

There was a person waiting for Christian.

It was the banshee maid, Marie.

She was waiting for Chris, wandering around the main building like a stone statue.

“…That ghost?”

“You must be waiting for your master. He won’t come anyway. How foolish of you.”

“It would be fun to become ghosts together.”

People passing by giggled.

Then Marie quickly turned around and looked at them.

Marie’s eyes suddenly lit up.

[Oh ho ho. Shut up… please.]

“!!”

The goosebumps made the minions swallow their saliva.

They were mid-level mines of 3 stars or higher.

But when I met the gaze of that banshee, my body froze and my mouth wouldn’t open.

‘How can a banshee have this kind of momentum? Isn’t it a normal banshee?’

‘Surely not that banshee?’

At that moment, Marie smiled and wrapped her hands around their necks.

It was a ghost, so there was no physical presence.

But it was even more creepy.

It felt like my soul was being captured.

[Thump thump… I’m waiting for you with a pounding heart… If you keep making noise next to me, won’t my purity be disturbed?]

“…….”

[I’m upset, so I might come to see you at night… Don’t talk dirty, and keep your mouth shut. Ohohoho.]

The banshee comes at night.

It meant that he was going to take away the soul.

The men stood stiffly and nodded without answering.

After that, Marie waited for Christian without being disturbed by anyone.

Without fail.

* ? ?* ? ?*

At that time, Christian was sinking endlessly in the darkness.

‘How long has it been?’

I don’t know.

The sense of time was unclear.

All I can feel is deep darkness.

Infinitely pure, without any blemish or stain.

A darkness so sacred it almost seemed to surround him.

But it wasn’t a warm feeling.

Just as water that is too clean can be harmful to fish, it felt burdensome because it was too pure.

‘Can I really make it all mine?’

A considerable amount of time has passed since I started absorbing the darkness.

Christian started to get a little worried.

I expected it wouldn’t be easy, but it was even harder than I expected.

‘It wasn’t difficult until about 60%.’

It was easy up to 70%.

But when it passed 70%, it started to get burdensome.

I vaguely thought I knew why the Nogaju Nordians didn’t reach 80%.

The burden increased exponentially from 70%. 80% felt like a distant memory.

80% is one thing, but what about 90%? What about the entire 100% that Chris is ultimately aiming for?

‘But you have to do it. Otherwise, you have no chance.’

The Darkness was a great power.

Common magic was the ‘fuel’ for using black magic and magical arts.

Store it in the core and use it when needed.

However, the Holy Darkness is not stored in the core. It is not a power that can be taken out and used when needed like magic.

It was completely different in utility from other magic.

Black magic is the power to change the constitution of its owner.

To be precise, it affects the core and changes the nature of the magic.

The attribute of magic changes into magic called ‘dark magic’.

‘That’s why the Darkness is called Dark Magic. Strictly speaking, it’s a little different.’

If you coincidentally accept 10% of the erupted black magic, your magical nature will change by exactly 10%.

If you accept 20%, you get 20%.

If you accept 50%, you get 50%.

70% is 70%.

In other words, if you accept all 10% of it, all of Chris’s magical attributes will change into dark magical attributes.

And dark magic is superior to all other types of magic.

To explain exactly what that means, it is this:

Originally, there were several types of magic attributes.

Gray, yellow, blood red, red, etc.

Each magic has its own black magic and magical arts that are suited to it. You must learn the appropriate aptitude for each to be able to fully unleash your power.

Curse black magic is ash magic.

Hematoma is a blood-red magic.

Destructive black magic uses red magic.

It’s like this.

If you don’t learn the magic of the right attribute, you will only be able to exert less than 50% of its power at best.

There is a limit to reaching a high level.

But dark magic has no such restrictions.

Dark magic is a power that is superior to all magic.

Ignore properties.

Any type of black magic or magical arts can be used without restrictions.

The higher the purity of the dark magic, the stronger this effect becomes.

If it has a purity of around 50%, it is said that it can exert around 70% of the power compared to those who have learned the magic of a unique attribute.

If the purity is 60%, it is about 80%.

It was a huge undertaking.

‘In the case of the Nogaju Nordians, whose dark magic purity is close to 80%, it is said that they can use all types of power at a level almost similar to those who have learned their own magic.’

It’s not even 80%, but that’s how it is.

What if it’s over 90%?

It is said that it is even possible to demonstrate power stronger than that of those who have mastered the unique magic.

10%?

I don’t know.

Because it was something no one had accomplished yet.

The speculation was that there might be some kind of undiscovered effect.

What was certain was that if Chris was to rise to the top of the Magic Empire, he had to make this Darkness completely his own.

‘Let’s see who wins.’

The core was wide open.

There was nothing special about how to accept the darkness.

If you throw yourself into the Holy Darkness, the Holy Darkness will automatically be absorbed into your core and change the nature of your magic.

However, if the vessel exceeds its capacity, the core begins to collapse. Eventually, the body is consumed by darkness and dies.

Therefore, the rule was to come out immediately when you felt a limit during absorption.

In Chris’ case, he felt a serious sense of crisis when it exceeded 80%.

‘It’s dangerous, but not yet. I can easily hold out for 90%.’

Chris gritted his teeth and held on.

This is possible because the size of the vessel Chris holds is incomparable to that of the Nordic vessel Nogaju.

The problem starts after 90%.
