Kill the giant.
According to records, the superman who first created La Mancha pierced the mountain with a single javelin and created a long cave.
This javelin technique included in La Mancha was, as its name suggests, powerful enough to impale even a giant god.
Of course, Russell did not have the same auror or powers as that superhuman.
But-.
‘Just cover the necessary parts with magic.’
Because I had the ability to tinker with even the parts that were lacking.
Since it wasn’t about climbing mountains, it didn’t need the same power as the superhuman.
All you need is enough to pierce a six-headed hydra!
The spear that left Russell’s hand spewed fire.
Thump-!
A thunderous sound rang out.
The moment Hwachang, which had almost immortal regenerative power, penetrated the gap that its regenerative power could not reach, the hydra screamed for its life.
[Gyaaaaaaagh-!]
[It hurts, it hurts-!]
[It’s hot-!!]
But the true power of Russell’s magic has not yet been revealed.
If it was the spear that pierced his wound, now is the time for magic to reveal its true value.
‘San(散), explosion(爆)-!’
Quagwagwagwang!
A thick prominence exploded from inside the Hydra. The ultra-high heat burned the muscles, burned the bones, and melted the lungs.
If that wasn’t enough, it even ate the blood vessels leading to the heart!
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Gay Bolg.
This magic that Russell created was the magic that could be said to be the most direct evidence of his growth.
The story is that it is only natural to grow up with Russell. Is it because of that?
Now that he has reached the 6th Circle, the Gaebolg he creates has a power that is completely different from that of the 5th Circle.
Even if the power of just one shot is released widely, it is a magic powerful enough to melt the vast wilderness into a mushy mess.
There were as many as twelve rounds of overlap.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The time it takes for the inside of the Hydra to transform into a fiery hell is literally a split second.
Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
In pain as his body was being cooked from the inside out, he blew out smoke from his mouth.
He twisted his large body at random.
Like an animal struggling to put out a fire in its body, it instinctively rolled its body to the floor.
However, there is no way that the fire inside the body, not the fire outside the body, would be extinguished by such actions.
The problem occurred somewhere else entirely.
Grumble, rumble, rumble.
The earth twisted and shook as the massive object, which was tens of meters tall, went on a rampage.
As many as five or six trees are shattered by a single cloud, and their heads shoot out like gunfire, tearing through the area.
Due to its destructive power, a moss-filled hill rising in the middle of the swamp collapsed.
Kugwagwagwagwa-!
It was clear that if left alone, it would cause devastating damage, so Alan gathered his magic power.
I squeezed the circle that had just become six. It pours mana non-stop towards the Mana Road and creates a huge wall of ice.
Boom, boom, boom, boom!
Gyaaaaaaaaa!
The thick ice wall collided with the massive body, and shock waves echoed inside the ice wall.
Every time, the ice wall shook violently, as if it might collapse at any moment. It cracked and split.
Blah blah blah blah-
At that moment, chrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt-.
Dozens of iron chains soared into the air, splitting the water with the sound of metal.
A chain made using the mud beneath the swamp and the iron sand contained in it.
This is no ordinary chain. A chain full of the earth’s gravity entangled Hydra’s entire body.
Kak, Kagaak-!
Chains tangle with each other, and the sharp sound of metal scratches my ears.
Normally, he would have used his strong magic defense to ignore gravity and tear off the chains.
However, now that he was seriously injured and close to death, Hydra no longer had the same strength left as before.
[Garrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-!
[I will curse you! I will curse you!]
[I am a member of His household, and He cherishes me and shares His strength with me-!!]
[The moment he arrives, your insignificant land will come to an end!]
He just continued to pour out curse-filled curse words.
‘Affiliation? Him?’
Russell, who caught a few keywords from the man’s foul language, tilted his head.
Words that are no different from admitting that there is someone behind you, even though you don’t know who it is.

The body of the guy who had been pouring out foul language and smoke for several minutes without stopping went limp.
thud-.
Shootaaaaa-.
The water in the swamp moves in ripples. The Hydra had finally exhausted all its vitality and collapsed on the spot.
When Hydra dies, its control over the monsters is also released.
Kiek?
Kieeeeek?
The monsters that had been fighting to the death just moments ago cried out with bewildered expressions.
A crying sound as if to say, “Why do we have to risk our lives here and fight?”
Ki-eek, ki-eek!
The moment he encountered the soldiers’ spears and swords covered in green bodily fluids, he panicked and ran away in all directions.
The enemies had already lost their will to fight.
Moreover, those monsters had been living in this large swamp for a long time.
‘Not only is it ridiculous to subdue all the monsters in this large swamp… … .’
Unless a monster like Hydra appears again, they won’t gather.
“Don’t chase!”
Confirming the appearance, Count Reinkel raised his sword high.
“When it’s time to chase those guys, take a look at your comrades! Move the seriously injured back and report the lightly injured quickly!”
It roared to dissuade the soldiers who were trying to chase them.
“The monster that was threatening the territory was defeated by the hands of the kingdom’s two young heroes!”
“Also, we have succeeded in protecting the future of my family and my neighbors!”
“Today’s battle is our victory!”
Even with good words, it cannot be called eloquent, but it is a roar that is as sincere as it is crude. The soldiers shouted in unison at the roar.
“Wow!!!!!!”
It seems that the news of today’s victory has reached the county. The cheers were like thunder.
─────!!!
* * *
“Thank you so much. Count Raymond. “Sir Allan.”
Successfully completed the subjugation.
While returning to the estate, Count Reinkel, who was next to Russell and Alan, opened his mouth.
“What would have happened to the county if you two weren’t there… … .”
He then added:
“The Earl and Sir Allan are of this Earl of Reinkel, no. “He is a benefactor and hero to the people of our territory.”
I feel once again that this is a man who cannot be called eloquent.
Of course, that’s why I felt the rough sincerity.
In any case, neither Russell nor Allen liked facing the man’s passionate gaze.
Alan laughed awkwardly.
Russell cleared his throat.
“Hmm.”
As if he wanted to change the topic, he turned the conversation somewhere else.
“You must be busy from now on.”
At Russell’s words, Count Reinkel nodded with a bitter expression.
“I guess so… … .”
Nineteen dead and twenty-two seriously injured, all casualties from this raid.
If you include those with minor injuries, the number will more than double.
In addition to providing treatment and compensation to them, the partially destroyed county walls had to be repaired as well.
In addition, the atmosphere of the territory, which had fallen to the ground due to Hydra’s attack, must also be lifted.
“Fortunately, I have quite a bit of goods stored up in case of a bad harvest. If we release it, we can hold out until the lake is completely purified.”
Count Reinkel enumerated such situations in his mind and envisioned what he would have to do in the future.
“Since there is no shortage of goods stored up, we can sell them to raise funds to repair the walls.”
Although he has to release a lot of goods at once, his voice is so calm.
“It would be a waste to give away that much goods at once… … .”
The 5th Circle wizard followed that voice. Riemann muttered unconsciously and Count Reinkel shrugged his shoulders.
“It was stockpiled for situations like this from the beginning. “It is not mine from the beginning, but belongs to the people of the territory, so there is nothing to waste.”
He continued muttering as if it was no big deal.
“Rather… … .”
“If it’s okay, could you stay at this territory for a few more days?”
The mission to subdue Hydra had been completed.
It wouldn’t be surprising if the wizards who came down from the capital to subdue it left at any time.
But now Count Reinkel has asked us to stay at the estate for a few more days.
“In order to revive the gloomy atmosphere of the territory, I plan to use my personal resources to hold a festival centered on the affected areas. So please… … .”
The Count responded to Russell, who asked the reason.
“… … “I hope the heroes who saved the county will attend the festival and grace the occasion with us.”
.
.
“Be careful there!”
“The rock is rolling, avoid it!”
Grumbling, rumbling.
When I suddenly turned my attention to a loud noise, I saw people maintaining the territory outside the window.
As force is applied to the wooden lever, the rock embedded in the wall of the house comes out little by little with a rumbling sound.
In addition, several carpenters ran from roof to roof, repairing broken parts, and women and young children walked among them, busily carrying new materials.
Soldiers and residents working together to repair the territory.
Just a few days ago, it looked so bright that it was hard to believe that it had been attacked by Hydra.
In addition, the rumor that the count was using his personal wealth to hold a festival had spread, and the castle gate was crowded with merchants who came to sell their goods.
The corners of Russell’s eyes furrowed slightly at the sight, which was heartwarming in many ways.
‘Youngjira… … .’
Then, I thought about the territory that had been given to me by the king.
County of Raymond.
Even though the territory was under him, it was managed separately by several mayors.
There wasn’t a particular problem, and I didn’t want to seem like I was interfering with those who were doing well, so I refrained from visiting… … .
‘Looking at the County of Reinkel, I feel like I want to go there at least once.’
When I return to the royal capital this time, if there is nothing special to do, I will make time to visit.
A few days passed while I was thinking like that, and finally the festival that Count Reinkel had talked about began.
.
.
Joyful music and loud noises that started in the village are transmitted through the open window to the inside of the castle’s corridors.
With that sound behind him, Russell adjusted his clothes.
Behind him, a group of wizards, including Alan, had formed a city.
Confirming that their preparations were complete, Russell glanced at the attendant, and he extended his hand.
Rattling-.
When I pull the doorknob, bright light starts from inside the banquet hall and pours outward.
Half a beat later, the servant shouted.
“The wizards of the royal capital, including Prince Shinseong (晨星公) Count Raymond, are entering!!”
At the loud shout, all eyes in the hall turned to the entrance of the banquet hall.
.
.
With the moonlight falling gently, there was someone standing at the top of the spire and looking at the scene.
Black hair and black clothes.
With darkness as thick as a shadow falling all around, only the eyes, reminiscent of those of a reptile, are emitting an amber glow.
-… … A banquet for humans.
The man muttered indifferently and kicked his toes. She walked towards the banquet hall with dry steps.
Tap, tap.
wizard who swallowed a dragon
