Infinite Mage – 85



[85] Light and darkness, good and evil (3)

‘Heh heh. Is this a human fist?’

It’s a power that can’t be inferior to magic. Moreover it didn’t even end with a single shot. Ethella held her breath and was punching her fists in succession. Every time he hit the heavy darkness his wrists throbbed but the impact the opponent received was several times his.

Arcane gritted his teeth and collected his mind. Etela’s fist was powerful but the nature of impact was unique. Instead of destroying the surface it created a shockwave inside. The problem was the interference caused by overlapping shock waves.

‘It’s a wave series. This is dangerous.’

Aaaaaaa!

At the moment the Dark Golem struggled in pain Etella’s eyes shone as she was pouring blows. As she took another step forward she hit the golem’s stomach with her palm causing a huge ripple effect and about 400 interferences. This meant that a shock wave 400 times stronger than Etella’s regime exploded inside.

The golem shuddered as if it had swallowed a bomb and its black body swelled up. It looked like it would explode sooner or later.

“Great!”

Arcane frowned and supported his spirit. If the Spirit Zone is broken the Dark Golem will collapse. As the golem’s tremors subsided as it wrestled with the shockwave Ethella bit her lip.

‘Is it not enough? I should have nested it a bit more.’

Yin-Yang Wave Fist is a martial art that uses water waves to create ripples on the opponent’s body then pushes a powerful wave to explode it. The downside is that it takes time to reach the peak but once the final blow is in the amount of impact is terrifying.

But Arcane persevered. The amount of shock received by the Dark Golem was 400 times greater than that of the skirmisher’s blow but Archane’s mental strength did not go unnoticed.

“It’s pretty kid.”

“The next one won’t end like this. Give up now.”

“Chuck! I guess there’s still power left. I’m so glad that I will warm up properly after a long time.”

When Arcane raised his hand all the Dark Spiders began to permeate into the Dark Golem’s body. The dark golem which gradually grew in size finally pierced the ceiling of the sea of water that covered the sky.

Ethella was dizzy. The Dark Golem now visible was the infamous identity of Arcane’s confrontation with numerous nations. A small to medium-sized city could be wiped out in a matter of days.

“How cool is that? I’ll have to beat it hard to see if it’s a wadongkwon or not. The abyss of my golem is deeper than the sea.”

If it was a giant golem over 10 meters tall it was questionable whether the shockwave could spread. However Ethella clenched her fists enough to crumble. will be the light of the world Even if death awaited him he had to move on.

Aaaaang!

The Dark Golem walked with a roar. Despite the increase in size the speed remained the same. Being able to move at the speed of thought was the biggest reason why the Dark Fellowship was classified as overpowered.

thud!

The Dark Golem’s fist hit the place where Etela was standing. Seismic waves knocked down trees and plowed the ground as if hundreds of moles were passing under it.

thud! thud! thud!

A series of fists were stamped. The shock wave shook the ground and devastated the surroundings. The sixth time the fist landed Etella turned and landed on the golem’s forearm. Then he ran up to his shoulders and crossed his arms and jumped down. At the same time as the fall a punch that was so fast that you couldn’t even see it hit the golem.

Deed deed deed deed!

It was a thunderbolt strike of the Thousand-Handed Kannon a five-year-old man of Yin-Yang Wave Fist.

“Big!”

Sparks exploded non-stop in Arcane’s brain. More than 30 shocks per second were pouring in. If the number of ripples generated per second is approximately 300 600 ripples will spread under the assumption that it takes 2 seconds to land. This alone causes approximately 3000 interference actions. However the essence of Yin-Yang Wave Fist was in the final blow the Jangbeop. What would happen if you allowed it to go there? If all properties of interference refraction and reflection are considered the number of interferences that occur after 2 seconds is quite…

‘68000 times.’

The shock amplified 68000 times that of Etela’s blow explodes inside. Arcane’s hair stood on end. However contrary to his emotions the corners of his mouth were grotesquely raised.

“Quack! I feel like I’m back now.”

I have no intention of running away. If the enemy was strong it would have been enough to crush it with more force than that. How much I missed this moment. The glory of the past where he competed with countless geniuses passed by like a kaleidoscope.

Aaaaaaa!

The Dark Golem twisted its waist like a pretzel. Etela who arrived on the ground also pulled her hands to her sides. The energy of the thunderbolt field the last food of the thousand-handed Guanyin thunderbolt rushed into the palm of my hand. As the Dark Golem’s fist swung in Etella clenched her teeth and held out her two palms.

‘A thunderbolt field!’

Whoa!

A mushroom cloud rose from the middle of the mountain range.

As all the trees in a radius of 20 meters were uprooted the dense forest turned into a wasteland.

* * *

The stars in the night sky were twinkling. Etella blinked while being hit by the starlight pouring through the tree branches.

“…”

How much time had passed.

No how far did it fly?

The trees where she flew were all broken.

At the end of the gruesome trail Etella sprawled out couldn’t move a single finger. My muscles twitched against my will. I couldn’t even feel any sensation in my fingertips or toes.

‘Master…’

Etella was unable to fight.

‘The Archmage is really strong.’

Even the magic of the Yin and Yang Wave Fist wasn’t enough to stop the Dark Fellow cast by the Archmage.

Is this what magic close to disaster is?

The sense of shame at not being able to destroy evil tormented her heart.

If the waves were overlapped a little more if the ritual of the Thousand-Handed Guanyin was perfectly mastered if the power of the lightning field had been further enhanced.

“Black. Ugh…”

Ethella raised her trembling arm and covered her eyes. Hot tears flowed like a waterfall.

“I’m sorry Master.”

Etela’s sobs echoed through the mountains.

Group (1)

Sirone and Canis did not miss each other’s position even in the complex terrain of the forest. It was cautious rather than violent and had a strong tendency toward psychological warfare rather than firefighting. Due to the contrasting nature of light and darkness if the delicate balance is broken the charter can turn in an instant. It was a question of who would throw the punch first.

It was Canis who felt the pressure more. Due to the nature of dark magic they are aiming for counters but Sirone never gave up a gap and created tension with only tactical movements. Through brainwave exchange Harvest’s thoughts came over.

– It’s definitely fine. It’s not possible for anyone to be this cool in a combat situation.

– Shall we pretend to be tricked and stick together? You need to create a variable. I can’t be dragged around like this.

– Hmm. It’s a mirror chess situation.

The strategy of moving pieces in the same way as the opponent does not widen the gap in power until the middle. Then if you can’t stand the pressure and make a mistake you’ll immediately poke a gap. However if the opponent maintains the pace until the end he has no choice but to pay the price for giving the first attack.

‘It doesn’t even show any signs of shaking. If we continue like this we could end up in danger.’

Canis thought it would be advantageous to take the first attack. And it conveyed the meaning through the mental channel.

– Harvey. What do you think?

– huh? Oh yeah. As time goes by we will be at a disadvantage. let’s go active

When the thoughts coming through the channel were slower than usual Kanis asked widening the distance with the Dark Fort.

– what’s the matter?

– No because I felt the seismic waves a little while ago. It’s two kilometers from here.

With a highly developed sense of vibration Harvest was able to see hear and even discern taste through vibration.

– Seismic waves?

– It is still being delivered. Arcane is the only thing that shocks me like this. It’s probably because he cast the Dark Fellowship.

– Master? But the Dark Fellowship is a secret weapon. What does this mean?

– There are good and bad intentions. The good meaning is that the state of inspiration is extremely brisk. The bad meaning is that I met an opponent who was strong enough to cast Dark Fellowship.

– If it’s a strong opponent… Is it Alfeas?

– For now it would be reasonable to think so. Anyway we have to move now. If Arcane found Alpheas we’d better clean up this place too.

– okay. Let’s begin.

Kanis closed the gap and entered. Contrary to expectations Sirone collided without losing. Catching the change of the flow immediately and maintaining the initiative was an animalistic feedback.

Kanis cast the power of darkness. The form of the shadow was endowed with a wizard’s unique personality and Canis’s was a double-sided saw blade specialized in attack.

As Sirone fired the Photon Cannon continuously the power of darkness was cut away like a rock stricken by wind and waves. Certainly light was the nemesis of darkness but Canis adhered to dark magic. All of the basic magic of each series could be used but it was not at the level of dealing with small skills.

‘Let’s hold on. I can’t use magic of this power forever. If you can endure it the flow will definitely change.’

As expected by Canis Sirone’s mental fatigue was accumulating moment by moment. No matter how superior the attribute was the defense power of dark magic was not negligible.

‘I need more power.’

Since photons are so active losses inevitably occur. Sirone thus gained mass by compressing the photons faster than they were lost. It was a method that consumed a lot of mental power but the power was even stronger and the sphere of white light swayed dizzy and grew in size.

Canis immediately sensed the change.

– what?

– The power has increased. I’ll take it.

Harvest who blocked Canis’s path took a posture that gave strength to her abdomen. When the huge photon cannon crashed into the ship it attacked both hands and suppressed the photons. However the photon was not crushed rather Harvest’s body flew through the forest with a hollow sound.

Kanis’s face turned into an absurd expression.

– Harvey. are you okay?

– so so. It’s terribly heavy. It’s a murder weapon.

Sirone floated a photon cannon above the top of her head. Subsequently photons were also created on both shoulders. As the three photon cannons swayed with enormous mass Harvest stretched out his arms and shouted as if he would not be pushed back.

“Kiki Kiki! It tickles! Is this just your last move?”

“no. Practice for now.”

“…”

Harvest’s voice cut off. When the photon cannon which was twice as powerful as the first shot was fired the giant trees in the places where the flash passed by exploded their sides. Harvest’s thoughts flowed as Canis’ mental channel sped up to the limit.

– Canis. let’s avoid this

– Once you start dodging you’ll lose the initiative. This is a fight you can’t back down from.

– I don’t think I can stop it!

– I can stop it. Absorb my psyche

– Damn it! You’re a real troublemaker!

After absorbing Canis’ mental power Harvest’s body swelled enormously. As the ship opened the shadow which had turned into the jaws of a beast screamed at the three beams.

“Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

Light struck the darkness.

Creas is a warm southern city. And now it was summer. But at the top of the impassable bridge a snowy blizzard raged.

Iruki and Nade fastened their collars. The blizzard obscured the view blurring the images of Shiina and Lucas.

“eww. It’s very cold. What happened? Why did Shiina-sensei cast magic?”

“Maybe you’ve come back to your senses? He might have awakened when he fell off the cliff.”
