Episode 243
At that moment, all sorts of thoughts came to mind.
So, I wonder if Iron Blood Prince is planning to sneak in under the guise of Heero and fight me… … .
I know it’s a crazy idea, but meeting Sanghyeolgong usually only occurred under unusual circumstances, so it wasn’t a big deal.
But if I thought about it even a little, I could see that the possibility of that happening was very slim.
It is such a public place.
With dozens or hundreds of heroes watching, it is too risky to participate in a promotion battle disguised as another hero, even if it is your son.
If you are discovered, it will not end up as a loss of face.
First of all, since it is a matter of discipline, there may be punishment from within Heros… … .
Even if he is not punished, it would be humiliating for Sanghyeolgong to be presented with such a matter.
In other words, that guy is Heero.
Still, why did I feel the Iron Blood Ball in that guy’s eyes?
The reason may be surprisingly simple.
Heiro has changed.
“Alchemist Marian. from now on.”
With a “push” sound, the golem standing to my right exhaled steam.
This golem walked towards the non-stage with a clanking sound, but looking at the reactions of the surroundings, it didn’t seem like the non-stage would be repaired or the location of the non-stage would be changed.
The atmosphere looks like it will continue like this on the broken non-stage.
Anyway, this time, the woman I had thought of as a scholar throughout the promotion battle turned out to be an alchemist, and now a golem was present in her place.
Of course, it’s not like he’s riding inside a golem or anything like that, but he says he sent the golem he created as a substitute.
Since the evaluation standard is combat power, this method seems possible. This is because an alchemist’s means of combat was usually a golem.
anyway… … .
A woman named Marian seemed to be talented enough to be called a genius even in [Ulkua], a famous place for alchemy.
Of course, the golem created by such a person also looked quite high-quality, but to be honest, it didn’t really catch my eye.
This is because my eyes had already grown high when it came to these dolls and mechanical life forms.
Arang’s skill level was out of this world… … .
Dean Alderson was also a purple archmage. This means that when it comes to alchemy magic, he was actually a skilled person with whom it would be difficult to find a competitor.
Of course, the armor produced by such a person was also ridiculously advanced in appearance, combat power, and function.
Of course, those two are very non-standard, and the level of completion of this golem is probably not that bad.
I looked over the off stage.
There is something I realized while watching the previous two battles.
The difference in power between Class A and lower heroes is stark. It is correct to believe that there is no chance of winning.
So the key point to secure the minimum chance of winning is the first attack.
That first blow, where the opponent only defends and evades and does not actively counterattack… … . Victory changes depending on which player is chosen as the first hand.
In fact, this was the difference between the Baron and the Chain Scythe.
The Baron didn’t rush in without thinking, but the chain scythe’s strategy of destroying the non-stage was much more effective.
then… … .
In what form is that steam golem going to take the player?
Slam!
“… Ome.”
I was quietly amazed.
The golem slowly raised its arms toward the sky, and at that moment, the mechanical device began to move loudly and its volume increased five times in an instant.
Eventually, the golem’s right arm became a large double-edged axe.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The ax was wrapped around the shoulders and down to the flames that flowed out.
“… Hmm?”
Only then did the hero who was standing there look forward. Now I see that he wasn’t distracted, he just looked sleepy.
Listening to the murmurs around me, it seemed like he probably had the nickname [Owl]… … .
Come to think of it, I heard owls are nocturnal.
The owl woman stretched out her hand as she watched the falling ax blade, but the shape of her hand was a bit unusual.
‘hmm?’
It had four fingers, and its fingernails were unusually sharp.
To me, its shape somehow looked like the claws of a bird of prey.
Wow!
The owl lightly flicked away an ax twice as big as its body with its claws, and the moment it extended its claws one more time, the golem’s steel skin was torn and shattered.
“… … .”
Did it take about 3 seconds to get to this point?
The shortest winning time in this promotion match was released.
The owl, who instantly destroyed his opponent, yawned loudly.
I muttered.
“Are you a contract of Shinsu?”
“hmm. “It seems so.”
The answer came back to Verita.
This guy had been praying with his eyes closed, saying he had something to say to God.
On the day of the promotion match, he even prayed in front of the non-stage.
He is a person who does not know whether he is strong-hearted or eccentric.
I saw the owl again.
He has a level of skill that is far superior to that of any contractor I have ever seen.

Even compared to Arjan, it is at a much higher level.
– Adaptation, power, elevation, unity. This is the stage of contract with Shinsu.
The words of Lycerradigos, who explained the state of the contract, come to mind.
This is just a feeling, but isn’t that woman a contractor who has reached the stage of oneness?
“Wizard Koraris. “On the off stage.”
After cleaning up the pieces of the broken golem, the next person was called.
Then the atmosphere in the hall changed a little from before.
“Koraris… … .”
“Is it finally the turn of the next Grand Wizard?”
“You’re taking over the place of purple, right? “Then, does that woman want to use alchemy magic too?”
“Well, that’s fine. Since he is said to be the best disciple of the blue color, he might mainly use defensive magic.”
For some reason, it occurred to me that half of the heroes watching had come to see this guy named Koraris fight.
At least the atmosphere is different from the previous battle.
‘Are you the next Great Wizard of Seven Colors? ‘This kid?’
I thought as I looked at the back of the wizard, who, although not as tall as Mir, was quite small.
Still, having met several people called the Archmage, I think this guy has not yet matured.
Not to mention Assad, the guardian of Badniker, Dean Alderson, who was not even an inch behind when dealing with the Demon King, was on a completely different level from an ordinary wizard.
You shouldn’t judge people by their appearance… … .
I couldn’t believe that this little kid next to me was on the same level as those monsters.
“… … .”
Koraris passed me by.
Although he had a doll-like face, I felt like his face was tense and tense, not indifferent.
It’s a subtle difference that can be perceived only because it’s close by.
‘This guy, no way…’ … .’
The moment I felt puzzled, Koraris stepped onto the off-stage.
I stopped thinking and paid attention.
What will be the first move that the next great wizard will use?
“… … .”
The eyes beneath the hat shone brightly.
The moment I tilted the staff in my hand, mana swirled around Koraris.
Fluctuating mana is a sign of magic being cast, and a symptom that can never be hidden. Just as you must exhale the breath you take in.
okay.
Up to this point, it’s a normal wizard.
Coo coo coo coo… … !
“… … !”
The rain stage trembles slightly.
It wasn’t just a feeling, it was a reality. If you look at the small stone fragments that have been broken by the chain scythe, they are moving.
‘This… … .’
I was a little surprised too.
That kid.
His mana reserves are at the level of an archmage.
Not only were there people of the same age, but they were several times more powerful than me, who possessed vast amounts of internal power through the First Flame of Chloride and Spiritual Jade.
no. How many tens of times?
I laughed out loud at the amount of mana that literally reminded me of the sea.
The heroes, who sensed that the situation was unusual, suddenly became busy.
“Increase the strength of the defense shield inside Gimnacion!”
“Avoid those in a straight line! “You, you idiot!”
“Are there any more wizards that can be mobilized? Damn, what kind of bullshit is this?”
Amid such commotion, Koraris’ lips twitched.
That voice suddenly reached my ears.
Great magic.
Spear of Yahweh.
The intestines turned white.
The unidentified white color even swallowed up the sound, but the next moment proved that the interpretation was slightly wrong.
-Kkwagwagwagwagwagwagwagwang!
The sound that had been pressed down like a spring bounced, and an explosion of sound swirled around like an explosion.
A white sphere shot out with an eardrum-shattering explosion, destroying everything it came into contact with.
How should I express this scene?
For example, the train I boarded in the islands… … . It seemed as if an object several times larger and dozens of times faster had passed through Gymnasion.
“Whoa… … .”
A faint smile appeared on the lips of the main culprit who caused the catastrophe.
As if he was quite satisfied with the magic he deployed.
‘oh my.’
I tapped my forehead.
I know very well that although the talent I have is great, my practical experience is poor.
“Up!”
The chain scythe next to him shouted.
It wasn’t really an intention to help Koraris, but it seemed like a semi-unconscious cry.
Koraris quickly looked up at the sky… … .
There, I saw an [owl] with his arms spread out like wings.
It’s not just a metaphor; the arm has really changed into an owl’s wings.
“… … !”
Koraris quickly deployed a shield, but the owl was faster than him.
The woman literally dropped like an owl stalking its prey, shattering the half-built shield with her claws.
And then.
He struck Koraris’ temple with his knee.
Our next archmage fell to the ground.
Even in that situation, I felt like I was controlling my strength. If I had hit it with all my might, my head would have gone off like a ball.
“… … .”
“… … .”
Although the winner was determined, the stadium was still immersed in silence.
The owl’s fierce gaze had changed to that of a person doused in cold water. Even though he could have dodged it, it was natural that if he had been hit head-on, not a single piece of bone would have been left behind.
I saw the traces left by the magic spell.
So, one wall of the Gymnasion was completely open.
Not half, but about a quarter of this huge facility had been blown away.
Everyone here realized this.
Koraris.
That woman will become a monster one day.
‘Even now, he’s already a monster.’
Perhaps they were thinking the same thing, and only then did whispers like sighs emerge from those around them.
“… This is ridiculous. “Isn’t that the level of a weapon, not a human being?”
“It’s not a requirement to be a wizard, but if you’re that skilled, it would be valuable just to have enemies in the clan.”
“If I could use that power even once a quarter, or even once a year… … .”
“But isn’t there a possibility that he is a member of the imperial family?”
It was a time when several large clans were whispering to each other.
“Please be quiet.”
The man sitting in the flexible seat said.
It was a man who kept calling me by name, and somehow I thought his voice sounded familiar, and I realized that he was the person who was supervising the first and second exams.
So, was it Kyron from the [Beowulf] clan?
The people sitting on the variable seats next to Chiron all seemed to be just as capable as that man… … .
Even though they all seemed like they weren’t class A.
Since it is an organization with so many people, I thought there would be all kinds of unexpected moves.
For example, a hero who can become A-level right away, but remains at B-level or lower.
You don’t have to look far, isn’t Verita next to me such a case?
Anyway, after moving the fallen Koraris, the promotion battle continued.
Looking at things like this, Heros was clearly an unusual group.
Even if the non-stage was destroyed, the facility was almost completely destroyed, and the process continued.
“Youngdo Luan Badniker. “On the off stage.”
Is it finally my turn?
Watching the previous dance, I was also starting to feel itchy.
I stood on the messy off-stage, thanking Chiron for not calling me by the tacky nickname “Gold Fairy”… … .
I exchanged glances with Hiiro, who was standing there.
“… … .”
“… … .”
Even though they were brothers I had not seen in a long time, there was no special emotion.
Perhaps the same goes for Heero?
“… … ?”
is not it?
I felt it before, but the look in this guy’s eyes today was a little strange.
I was a little embarrassed because it was something I had never felt from Heero before.
‘Should I use the sword? or not… … .’
Just as I was thinking about the player, Heiro drew his great sword first.
A sword as heavy as the sword of Maksim the Pacheongeom.
Even though Heiro is not small, he is big enough to look daunting.
And this guy immediately stepped off the stage and swung his sword at me.
“… … !”
Exclamations erupted from all directions at the unexpected development, and I was also taken aback.
The player yields.
Hiiro broke the unwritten rules of promotion battles.
Cough!
I reflexively defended myself with the Seven Deadly Sins Sword.
I think I know why this guy’s nickname is Ganggeom.
Heavy, hard, and strong.
If it were any weapon other than the Seven Deadly Sins Sword, it would have been shattered into pieces just now.
What’s even more surprising is… … .
I thought that even if it was the Seven Deadly Sins Sword, it could be damaged or broken if the battle with Heero continued.
“… … .”
And that was the moment when I saw Heero’s eyes beyond the blade.
I felt as if my slack mind and body were being straightened out.
I will be honest.
I didn’t think the fight with Heero would be difficult.
Based on what I had seen of this guy, I assumed he would look down on me or engage in a fight.
Because my goal was not to win.
However, there was no sign of hesitation from Hiiro, who was facing him at this moment.
Facial expression, mood. Momentum, sensation.
There is a sense of tension as if facing a unique enemy, and even a kind of desperation can be felt in the facial expression of gritted teeth.
“Luan Badnicker.”
Eventually, a suppressed voice leaked out.
“… “Do your best.”
I’m already doing that… I felt like I heard a hidden remark.
Kaang!
I applied my strength to the Seven Deadly Sins Sword and threw Heero away.
After exchanging glances from a distance away from each other, the Seven Deadly Sins Sword was struck.
I don’t know what this guy’s purpose is or what he’s thinking… … .
It is not polite to conserve strength against a warrior who is fighting with all his might.
I said calmly, taking a 100-day eclipse.
“Let’s give up the strike first once more.”
“… … .”
A smile crossed Heiro’s lips.
