Chapter 446 - Episode Ninety-Two - Red Dream (10)
…… Magic was sealed, and Quetzalcoatl finally dropped into the sea.
“In this case …… a sorcerer is just a human being. Well? How do you feel now? Abel Belek. You’ve been doing whatever you want with that magic until now, so it must be hard for you to bear?”
Silfheim smiles down at the wooden dragon Quetzalcoatl floating on the sea.
“A-Abel ……”
Mea calls out from behind me.
I turned around and saw Olviga fainting in the corner of the wooden dragon Quetzalcoatl, blowing bubbles.
…… Mentally weak …… no, it can’t be helped with the current circumstances.
I’ve been under the influence of the “Red Dream” for a while now, and space is still shaking.
It’s not surprising that this alone would make some people feel faint.
“Tha, That spirits target is Mea, right? If Mea goes now, maybe he will let Abel go ……”
“…… is what he’ll probably not do. I think I pissed him off a little too much.”
Even now, Silfheim will try to recover the souls of Mea and Moebius.
Silfheim is not going to actively use the “Red Dream”.
The “Red Dream” is a forbidden art that can destroy the world, and it is his last resort.
Silfheim himself says so.
Moebius’ ability to reduce Kudor’s magic without resorting to the “Red Dream” should make him an important pawn for the Silfhheim.
But unfortunately, there is no need for Silfheim to negotiate with me for that.
The matter has already been settled.
In the first place, for Silfheim, my survival would be more negative than the recovery of Moebius.
“Moreover, I will not do anything like selling Mea to him.”
I hugged her close.
“Kya! Abel ……?”
“Sorry, Mea. I’ll leave you alone for a while. I’ll be right back to get you.”
“Wha, What do you mean by that ……?”
Silfheim is slowly coming from above my head.
I’ve already convinced myself that I don’t have any countermeasures.
If I were on the other side, I’d think so too.
I’m almost out of magic power, and my power as a sorcerer has been taken from me.
I can’t use the wooden dragon Quetzalcoatl or Levi’s spear anymore.
On the other hand, Silfheim’s magic power and spirit body must be almost completely intact.
I’ve successfully hit him with Levi’s spear a couple of times, but I’m pretty sure he only lost a hundredth of his total magic power with it.
In addition, there is no way to stop the reality altering ability of the “Red Dream”.
But that’s probably why.
It was clear that Silfheim was caught off guard.
“You’ve gone against me so much. Abel Belek …… I will give you eternal suffering and regret that will last until the end of this world.”
Slowly the Silfheim descended.
I untied my arms from around Mea’s body and stared at Silfheim covering the sky.
I kicked the floor vigorously …… letting the magic flow through my body.
My body flew in a straight line through the sky and into the “Red Dream” of Silfheim’s chest.
“What ……? I’m sure you couldn’t use magic to enhance your physical abilities ……”
“It’s not that I can’t use it, it’s just that I’ve never used it! I’ve used it once in the Marren village, and I’ve done some improvements and research on it out of curiosity!”
The “Wooden Stick” used in the Marren tribe’s village was to borrow the power of the spirits through the Ortem to strengthen their physical abilities.
That one can’t be used because the spirit is silent, but I just have to do it on my own without relying on the spirits.
It would be a martial art similar to Darras’ “Gouma”.
“As expected, I’m more afraid of you than I am of my sore muscles!”
I kicked the Red Dream’s forehead with my foot.
“Ugah!?”
Silfheim’s huge body flipped over.
I continued to put my arms out in front of me and hit the “Red Dream”.
A moment later, the color of the world changes drastically.
The Red Dream’s eyes open again.
I guess it’s about 90% open.
Silfheim’s figure disappears and appears behind me.
He raised his arms wide.
“Do you really think that useless resistance will have an effect on me!”
I kicked off the Silfheim’s downed arm and fell into the sea.
Although I fell quite deep, I was able to surface easily by paddle the water with my arms.
I’m worried about when the recoil will return …… after all this strengthening.
I hope that time will come.
“You just don’t die!”
Silfheim raised his arm.
The sky lit up.
I kicked the surface of the sea and jumped forward.
Behind me, I saw lightning strike the sea, creating a huge hole in the surface.
I kicked the surface of the sea and ran away from the Silfheim.
“What the hell! I thought you were going to catch me alive and torment me forever! If that thing hits me, a mere mortal, will die!”
I shouted at the top of my voice, provoking the Silfheim to the best of my ability.
“So you think you can get out of range of the spirit’s silence? It’s futile!”
Indeed, it would be futile.
Even if I could get out of that range, there is no magic that would be effective in this situation.
And if the Silfheim re-activate the magic, it’s over.
The sky lit up three times.
I kicked and bounced my feet off the surface of the sea, avoiding the lightning at all costs.
“No matter how hard you try, you don’t stand a chance! Now that you’ve come this far, why don’t you understand that! There is an almost infinite difference in rank between you and me!”
The thought waves of the Silfheim shouting came echoing in the air.
“If anything …… it’s because you’ve been brought to this point by a lower-ranked opponent!”
While replying to this, I kept on jumping forward, kicking the surface of the sea.
