Magic Is Learned For Nothing [EN]: Chapter 212

Under the Moonlight (1)

The ten black mages who serve Bishop Wednesday.

Each bishop has ten black mages and ten black knights as bodyguards.

The bodyguards are chosen to reflect the bishop’s personality.

The ten black mages surrounding Legion were vampires who had chosen conversion following Wednesday’s lead.

They had long since crossed the line.

They freely consumed human blood and, in return, obtained a vast amount of magical power.

Now, humans were nothing more than a meal to them. If their opponent knew how to use magic, their power would become even stronger.

To them, Legion and the hunters were appetizing prey with considerable magical power.

Unconsciously, they licked their lips with their red tongues.

“I’ll tear you limb from limb and devour you!”

The vampires’ black magic began to intensify.

Reedcoff approached Legion.

“Mr. Dondechman.”

“Yeah.”

*Ugh*, damn it, he answered right away. Living as Dondechman these days makes me feel like I’m becoming Dondechman.

“We will stop them. Mr. Dondechman, please take the hunters and leave.”

Reedcoff said in a determined voice.

The last member of the Suicide Squad, Reedcoff.

She was showing considerable skill in red magic compared to others her age. So, the king devoted himself to teaching her, and she absorbed that teaching completely.

However, she is still young.

If she had 50 more years, she would have become one of the strongest red mages in the kingdom, but now she is only a 4-circle Walker [a mage who has mastered four circles of magic].

The most important thing now is to save Sharonz, who has the ‘Blood of the Black Dragon’.

She and the new Suicide Squad didn’t seem to be of much help to Sharonz. This ironclad man is more helpful than her.

It’s frustrating, but she had to admit it.

She decided to sacrifice herself to buy some time to save Sharonz. She thought that if she and her subordinates gave their all, they could buy some time.

Legion looked at Reedcoff, who had a determined expression on her face.

“Hey, kid.”

Reedcoff is 150 years old.

“Yes?”

Legion is 19 years old.

“Don’t be cheeky and step back.”

Reedcoff was well-mannered because her mother had given her early education since she was young.

“I will stop them. Please, help Sharonz.”

Legion pretended to be docile in front of his parents, but he was rude outside.

“I’ll help, so go back.”

The 19-year-old spoke informally to the 150-year-old. Fortunately, Reedcoff looked young, so no one found it strange.

“Then we will help.”

“Ah, I said, you’re just getting in the way, so go back.”

“The enemies are black mages. And they are quite skilled.”

“I know. All of them have a basic combat power of over 10,000. If they use magic, it will be over 20,000.”

“Combat power?”

“Well, there’s something like that. Anyway, step back.”

“But, but.”

At that moment, one of the black mages swung the Reaper’s Scythe greatly.

*Clang!*

Legion raised his iron sword and blocked the black mage’s scythe. Intense sparks flew.

An evil spirit emerged from the Warlock’s Reaper’s Scythe.

-Oh! That guy is amazing too. Total combat power is 27,000.

Mark babbled.

It was an evil spirit with sharp teeth filling its gaping mouth, flashing with ferocity.

The evil spirit flew straight towards Legion.

Reedcoff, seeing the evil spirit, quickly cast a spell. An electric magic that exerts the strongest power in the ghost realm and the spirit realm unfolded.

“How unsightly. Don’t even show that low-level magic!”

The black mage cast Dispel with one hand.

Reedcoff’s electric magic disappeared mid-cast. Reedcoff let out a sigh close to a lament.

The evil spirit was about to swallow Legion with its mouth wide open.

Legion did not take any action even while watching the approaching evil spirit.

“Die! You hindrance!”

With the black mage’s cry-

*Crack!*

The evil spirit disappeared.

No, to be exact, it was eaten by something.

-Srrrrrr.

A bony hand appeared from Legion’s shoulder.

A Lich [a powerful undead sorcerer] appeared, opening a subspace and crunching on the evil spirit. An enormous magical energy stretched out in all directions.

The Lich’s long hair fluttered in all directions.

The Lich’s ferocity, glimpsed between the long hair, was enough to freeze the vampire black mages.

“Let me introduce you. This is Mammon. As you can see, he’s a Lich.”

Legion said, dragging his iron sword.

“Run away with all your might. If you get caught… you’ll die.”

With that, the Lich grabbed the head of the black mage who was wielding the Reaper’s Scythe.

“Sa, save me…”

And slowly began to swallow him. He hung upside down by his feet, trembling and unable to scream. His ankles were swallowed into the Lich’s stomach.

The Lich Mammon slowly lowered his head.

He slowly looked around. Not only the black mages but also Reedcoff, the Suicide Squad members, and the hunters were trembling, unable to withstand the shock.

“S, sister. Wh, wh, what is that?”

Tan-do pointed at the Lich Mammon, trembling like an aspen tree.

“It’s a Lich. No matter how you look at it, it’s a Lich.”

“A Lich? Why is the Lich, the king of the undead, here?”

“You just heard him. Legion summoned him.”

At Napalm’s words, Tan-do couldn’t say anything with her mouth open.

She had never seen anyone raise a Lich as a summon before. No, she couldn’t believe that such a person even existed in the first place.

“I, it can’t be. Can you believe that?”

“I can’t believe it, but wouldn’t it be possible for Legion?”

Suddenly-

“Kaaaaaak!”

The Lich Mammon’s sharp fear spread in all directions.

The black mages standing in front of him collided head-on with the fear. Surprisingly, the black mages’ hoods were all torn.

The black mages were horrified to see the Lich emitting formidable magical power.

They were not beings they could face.

They never dreamed that such a monster was hiding.

“I’ll count to three. Kneel.”

Legion said.

“Three.”

Legion counted to three right away.

The black mages didn’t even have time to shout for a moment.

At the same time as counting to three, a sinister voice flowed from the Lich Mammon’s mouth.

“Come out, Hell Octopus!”

In an instant, hundreds of legs with suckers flowed out of Mammon’s mouth. The suckers’ claws stretched out towards the black mages at a rapid speed.

* * *

Dreyzer climbed the highest spire nearby.

Everything in Blood City was visible at a glance. A large road stretched out in a cross shape, centered on the royal castle.

The vampires were pouring out a tremendous amount of war materials as if they had made up their minds.

Each individual is far stronger than humans.

But they lost in the war against humans. It was not a war lost simply due to being outnumbered.

There were many complex reasons, one of which was weapons made of silver. Vampires are incredibly strong, but they could be reduced to ashes by a single silver arrow, so they had no choice but to suffer a miserable defeat at the time.

Over time, they forgot that fact.

However, it seems that the vampires have also been preparing step by step. Weapons needed for siege warfare were constantly appearing. Also, weapons to arm all the vampires were continuously being supplied.

The smithy was running non-stop.

Just by looking at it, the situation seemed very serious.

“These bastards, it seems they’re really thinking of giving it a try.”

Dreyzer narrowed his brow slightly. He increased his magic power and searched for Sharonz.

He sees her.

Sharonz seemed to be unconscious.

She was stretched out and carried on the backs of black knights, heading somewhere quickly. The place they were going was outside the ice wall.

Dreyzer moved his massive body towards them.

He kicks the air. It looked like he was walking in the air.

It was easiest to become a Dragon Slayer. It was the levitation technique written in the booklet.

“A little closer to you” Levitation technique.

It was a levitation technique created to get to Preitia a little faster.

Alexander de Recordion, who created this martial art, must be either crazy or a genius.

Or should I say he’s a genius but crazy?

A footwork created to woo a dragon.

Everything is good… but… the disadvantage of this martial art is that you must chant the incantation.

There were no cool names.

I can’t do it because it’s embarrassing. It’s the same now.

Only after shouting “A little closer to you!” did the magic power unfold into footwork.

It’s a great relief that no one is watching.

*Koo-oong!*

Dreyzer jumped through the air and appeared in front of the black knights.

The black knights, who were carrying Sharonz on their shoulders like luggage, felt a huge force rushing towards them. It felt like a great white shark with its mouth open was attached to their backs.

They received an order from Wednesday to ‘throw this child outside the ice wall unconditionally. Throw her away and return immediately.’

They had no intention of moving their legs until the order was carried out.

However, they couldn’t help but check this dangerous energy. They stopped running and turned around.

The black knights initially found nothing.

The street, which was always dyed red, was deserted. Almost all the vampires were gathered in the central square preparing for war.

Thanks to that, there was nothing that caught their eye.

“Th, that?”

Until they looked at the sky.

*Swaaaaaaak!*

A huge man was flying towards them.

No, the word flying is not correct. He was jumping. While stepping on the empty air.

“Th, that, is that even possible?”

The black knights, who were not easily surprised, couldn’t help but be shocked.

Isn’t that the legendary air walking?

Air walking was known as a technique that only sword master-level knights with sufficient magic power to overcome gravity could perform.

The opponent, who was fluttering his pigtails, was clearly jumping in the air.

“Th, th, th, no way!”

*Kwajijijik!*

The black knight was knee-kicked by Dreyzer before he could finish speaking.

It was a knee kick that jumped down from the highest spire in Blood City. It had the power to split even a rock in half. The black knight, who was hit head-on in the face, sprayed blood and fell backward.

The face was completely crushed.

But that black knight is also a vampire.

He groaned and raised his upper body. His durability is far better than that of a human knight. The broken face is also regenerating quickly.

Dreyzer kicked the face of the vampire who had raised his upper body with his toes, like kicking a pig’s heart.

*Kwajik!*

With a tremendous sound, the jaw was shattered.

The vampire black knight stretched out his arms and fell over as he was. Half of his face was blown away. The black knight could no longer regenerate.

“Who are you?”

The black knights drew their swords.

Mana blades sprouted from their swords. Vampires were also able to use mana blades, which could be said to be the exclusive property of humans.

“Jack Nicher.”

Ah~ I’m crazy. I’m crazy. Now I’m more comfortable with the name Jack Nicher than the name Dreyzer. This is a big problem.

“Jack Nicher?”

“Yes, Jack Nicher. You must have heard my name at least once.”

The black knights’ faces hardened. Of course, they had heard of him.

Wasn’t he a henchman of Dondechman, one of the seven strongest in the kingdom? Dondechman and Jack Nicher are like a thread and a needle [inseparable companions].

Also, although he was hidden by the outrageous Dondechman, Jack Nicher is said to be a 6-star master [a highly skilled warrior or mage].

Aside from that, if there was a hottest potato [a controversial or problematic issue] in the kingdom recently, it was definitely Dondechman.

Not only the kingdom.

The main church also issued a directive to kill ‘Dondechman and Jack Nicher’ immediately upon discovery.

I don’t know why.

However, the fact that he is a transcendentally strong person was already known to everyone in the Stone Head Church.

Such a Jack Nicher appeared before their eyes.

Why on earth?

Could it be…

Targeting Sharonz?

“Jack Nicher! What the hell are you guys? Why did you suddenly appear and interfere with the main church’s path!”

“Stop talking nonsense and put that woman down.”

“Jack Nicher! You will never be forgiven… Keheok!”

The black knight’s helmet was split in half. Blood was flowing from his broken nose.

No one saw when the fist flew.

The black knights didn’t know.

How impatient Dreyzer’s personality is. The fact that he’s crazy enough to destroy a dragon’s lair because of shampoo. In fact, when you think about it, Dreyzer is more crazy than the death butcher Dondechman, but people seem to forget that sometimes.

Crazy Dreyzer.

His formidable violence began to sweep away the black knights all at once.
