chapter 22
22 – In the end, I passed out.
Broa was secretly pursuing Demesis.
I should apologize to him quickly, but I am afraid to speak to him.
When he looked back at her, his heart stopped, and when he met her eyes, he felt dizzy and stood on a perilous precipice.
If he hadn’t been in a position to apologize, he wouldn’t have dared to come close to Demesis.
Hesitantly, hesitantly, he was following the steps of Demesis.
‘After begging him, I shouldn’t even look at him again.’
Broa clasped her hands tightly and made a promise.
No matter how much she had followed her father and had been trained as a warrior, facing someone as terrifying as Demesis would make her heart tremble and she couldn’t stand it.
This time, she was going to get on her knees neatly, apologize to Demesis, and then run away as unnoticed by him as possible.
To do so, you only need to be brave this once.
You only need to apologize properly once.
The afterimage of the twisted neck of the Great Grizzly Bear continued to linger on her back.
I followed him to the training ground, forcibly dragging my feet that don’t fall well.
Demesis’ actions witnessed at the training ground were completely unpredictable.
Seeing him, he wanted to ask the student who was lying on the floor, and then suddenly ran along the track.
round and round.
He only completed two laps, but the students running the track tasted hell.
Yongin, wearing a gray hood, chased after him with terrifying momentum, so he ran as if he had seen a reaper, but then collapsed and lost consciousness.
All of the students who saw that scene were holding on to every support they could reach on the training ground and trembling.
Then, Demesis asked another student and held up an iron bar with 200kg steel bars hanging on each side.
He wiggles it like a tree branch, then pretends to swipe down menacingly.
Everyone hurriedly lowered their heads, holding their backs of their heads in case their heads were split by the iron bar he wielded.
Soon, he lifted all the exercise equipment on the playground at once.
Students who fainted at the overwhelming sight appeared one after another, and all knelt down and shed tears as if they were being punished with exercise equipment.
Demesis, who instantly turned the scene of the playground into hell, lost interest and walked away in search of other victims.
“Huh.”
Broa couldn’t contain her astonishment and barely covered the moans that flowed from her mouth with her hands.
You can’t lie down here and cry again.
The more you fear Demesis, the sooner you apologize.
Staggering, I followed him past the students on the floor as hard as porcupine stones.
Demesis passing through the arena.
I arrived at the private training room with leisurely steps, and looked at the students in the room through the square window.
“Huh!”
“Huh!”
As the frightening man in the gray hood stared into the airtight private room, a gasping sound came from inside the training room.
The appearance of Demesis inspecting the personal training room was like a prison guard watching over the prisoners.
It’s like a bloodthirsty beast looking for prey.
Swoop, Swoop.
He took a quick glance and passed, but all the intermittent noise from the private training room was gone.
Broa, who had been moving stealthily with her mouth shut, followed Demesis and looked into the square window to see what had happened to them.
Each of them was knocked down and passed out, just as they were training.
The swordsmen who were meditating fell forward while sitting cross-legged, and the students who were swinging swords or using magic collapsed while maintaining their previous poses.
Broa’s face turned blue as if she had personally witnessed the murder scene.
can i really do it
In order to apologize to him, Broa will have to muster up the greatest courage of her life.
Dad, mom, brother…
Broa kept muttering the names of people who helped her and forced her wobbly knees.
*
I was thinking about what to do to train.
I don’t know what it means even if I try to imitate the students who run.
I tried to lift the exercise equipment with rebar, but I didn’t feel any weight.
I’ve never learned magic, and even if I didn’t learn it, I wouldn’t feel the need to train it because it wouldn’t be inconvenient to live.
So what should I practice?
After much thought, only one thing came to my mind.
Also power control.
He had to control the overflowing mana inside the dragon heart.
That’s how I survived against the gushing dragon heart’s mana, and it’s been a constant training.
But if you practice magic control again, there’s no reason to come to the training ground.
When I was wrestling with Dragonheart for a long time, it was better to have no one around.
It would be dangerous if the person next to you was swept away by the flow of mana that swayed as deeply as the sea.
The mana I had was such a vast, thick, powerful, and dangerous kind.
‘Still, let’s do something while we’ve been here.’
It was a pity that I came to the training ground to just go back.
I decided to make one of my own training methods.
Control the Dragon Heart’s mana. Plus, increase your telekinesis.
This will be the training method that suits me.
I found an empty lot behind the training ground.
A forest with a wide expanse of trees.
The Imperial Academy was located on the edge of the ecliptic, bordering the mountain range.
The forest continues in this direction.
Even if I unleash my magic here, the people around me won’t get hurt.
Pudeudeuk, woodeuk, kkudeuk.
With his telekinesis, he pulled out all the old trees that were blocking his view and removed them.
I made my own training ground with lush natural grass and looked up at the blue sky.
In order to train, you have to use strength.
The best way is to control the dragon heart’s magic, but this time I wanted to practice something else.
Let’s increase the power of telekinesis.
‘It’s lifting heavy equipment to build muscle and build strength!’
I was inspired by a response from a student earlier.
If I repeatedly lift heavy objects with telekinesis, the magic power I can use will become stronger.
This is my own training method.
I thought of an object that would feel heavy to me.
The exercise equipment I’ve just heard of doesn’t work.
That is no different than lifting a grain of sand.
It didn’t take any effort at all to lift it by hand.
heavy object.
If it’s a heavy object to me, it’s about a mountain or a city.
At that point, I will have to use some strength to lift it.
‘Should I lift this Imperial Academy? Or raise the ecliptic?’
I thought about it for a while, but it seemed like a big commotion would happen.
If I broke or lifted a mountain, the dragons would freak out.
When I crushed the entire dungeon with my telekinesis in the Western Magician, they called me a god.
If I raise the Imperial Academy for no reason, I will only create a sense of fear before I can get close to the people here.
‘Then I won’t be able to lift anything on the ground.’
I raised my head and looked at the sky.
sunlight shining brightly.
Floating cumulus clouds.
There was a cloud of just the right size.
It was not too far from the Imperial Academy and the size was just right for the naked eye.
People say that clouds are out of reach, but in reality they are not.
If you use magic power, that will be captured.
It’s not that far.
At most, it could be reached by flying a little from the top of the mountain.
I’ll have to practice with that.
*
“Whoa.”
I picked up my breath before exerting myself in earnest.
Even the slightest mismanagement of magic power would sweep away this Imperial Academy.
To prevent damage to other buildings or students, the Dragon Heart’s mana was refined and extracted.
He raised his head and looked at the cloud, accurately recognizing its center.
I took off the hood and cloak that hid my magic power, removed the bracelet and put it on the floor.
Then, he spread both hands and began to stretch the telekinetic power mixed with the dragon heart’s mana into the sky.
Deuk Deuk!
Dense mana entwined like a spider’s web and soared up into the sky.
The string of magical power drew a trajectory like the tail of a comet and headed straight toward the center of the cumulus cloud.
The magic of the clouds I see with my own eyes.
I dug into the middle and placed my magical power at the core.
Wood deuk, kurlureung!
I ate the magic that was forming the cloud with my magic.
Water vapor was mostly concentrated in a place where the magic of water attribute was thick, but as I followed the constant flow, all the main connecting parts that formed the clouds were caught by my telekinesis.
Hoo-wook.
I felt the weight of the clouds.
Indeed, the heart trembled and the power of the dragon heart was heavy enough to pulsate in an instant.
Whoops, whoops.
Whoops, whoops.
Just like the students I saw on the playground holding the iron bar with both hands and lifting it up and down repeatedly, I trained my telekinetic power by pulling and pushing the cloud.
Whoops! Koo Goo Goo!
There was a loud clap of thunder as the height of the cloud rose and fell as I pushed and pulled.
There was a sound like that when the atmosphere was violently stirred and the clouds twisted all at once.
Kwalung! Don’t fall out!
Lightning began to strike due to atmospheric friction.
Clouds dyed black turned the condensed water vapor into ice crystals and water droplets and poured it out to the ground.
The sky was darkening, it was raining, and there was thunder and lightning.
I’ve only been exercising with clouds.
“Kyaaah!”
It was then.
Screams can be heard at the edge of the clearing, behind a thick, huge tree.
I had been working hard for a while, so I noticed the sound late.
‘Is it dangerous to be around here?’
If I was swept away by the wrong mana while I was exercising, the opponent could disappear without even leaving bone powder behind.
I hurriedly released the cloud from my hand and released my telekinesis.
shoot ah-
torrential raindrops.
Get out of here, get out of here!
A bolt of lightning that distorts the air.
Kurung, Kurung.
Mixed in the thunder that the startled dark clouds spewed, I approached the screaming woman.
*
Broa was regretting everything.
Why did I follow you here?
Originally, the moment of choice is short, and the pain and regret are long.
While I was following the trail of Demesis, leading my staggering feet, the old trees that formed the forest suddenly shattered all at once.
There was a clearing covered with natural grass, and Demesis, who took off his mantle and bracelet, began to stretch his mana toward the sky.
As the dense magical power overflowed and raged around, Broa hid by relying on the strongest old tree in the vicinity, and was crushed by the energy of Demesis, who took off her cloak, and could not breathe properly.
I was crouching under a tree with my hands wrapped around my head, feeling like I was going to die, and the air suddenly fluctuated, then thunderstorms, showers, and the sky darkened.
“Kyaaah!”
Broa was frightened and burst into tears, screaming out of nowhere.
It was not a fear that could be tolerated by covering one’s mouth.
It was so scary as if he was being punished by the heavenly gods.
My whole body trembled, and my heart shrank so much that I couldn’t control it.
He was holding his chest tightly as he shed tears.
fast.
In an instant, the old tree that was covering Broa was pulled out.
Broa looked back in a crouching position.
Demesis was looking down at her.
“hmm? you. Why are you here?”
He asks her why she is here.
But Broa didn’t have the energy to answer.
It was the moment when he encountered Demesis taking off his cloak and bracelet.
An unimaginable feeling of oppression gripped his entire body, and a feeling of dread surged through his nerves.
I had to answer something, but I just cried and opened my mouth, but no voice came out.
at that time.
The magical power that Demesis released shimmered around, and the dense magical power pressed down on Broa.
As the wind blew and the fluctuating environment continued to change, the pressure that had been bouncing chaotically was transmitted to Broa as well.
The defense item that sensed Broa’s crisis shone brightly.
A necklace Silian gave me for self-defence.
It was a magic item that attacked the opponent when she was in danger.
Hey, Kwajijik!
Fire magic exploded from Broa’s necklace and attacked Demesis.
A spear of flame that pierces enemies while spinning.
Silian did not prefer to develop attack magic, but when the moment of real need came, he did not hesitate to use killing magic.
Silian’s genius idea was contained in the flame spear.
It is spontaneous, difficult to evade, fast and powerful.
The spear of flame that exploded from the collar rotated violently and stabbed Demesis.
Roaring!
Demesis under attack.
His clothes were set ablaze by the flames.
Eagle Eagle.
Broa, already delirious, had the nightmare-like sight in her eyes.
It seems that the intermittent spirit will break at any moment.
The last scene Broa witnessed.
Demesis, whose clothes were burnt but not a single wound.
The tattoos from his left chest to his right wrist gleam in gray, rainstorms and thunderstorms roar in the sky, and the sinews of his school uniform are squirming and twitching.
And the amber eyes of Demesis looking down at her.
A vertical pupil without an inch of shaking.
“Uguk, black, kkup. Huh.”
Broa let out a sound of breathing mixed with crying and eventually fainted.
