Magic is Learned for Nothing – 274
# 274
Awakening! Dark Lord 2
“Ugh, there’s not a spot that doesn’t hurt.”
Lich Mamon returned to the subspace and soaked his body in hot water. He looked at his bony chest.
A gaping hole.
Ah, my heart aches. I need to repair it quickly. Let’s cast a spell. Make a wish. The newly developed spell is quite effective. Undead Healing. It fills the hole in my chest faster than I thought.
“Duke Trebia, huh…….”
Suddenly, the one who had pierced a hole in his chest came to mind.
That bastard was incredibly strong.
If we fought again?
Mamon shook his head. In the current situation, even if they fought again, his defeat was highly likely.
“What am I going to do about this…….”
My insides are boiling, and I can’t stand it.
He felt like he wouldn’t feel relieved until he tore Duke Trebia apart with his own hands, no matter who else it was.
To do that, 7th circle magic wouldn’t be enough to face him.
Mage, knight, warrior, archer, healer.
If you surpass 7-star, 7th circle in all classes, you are given one title.
With the word ‘Great’ included-
-Grand Master.
He was definitely a Grand Master.
Lich Mamon, who had lived for 250 years, had never seen a Grand Master before. The womanizing middle-aged men of the Alexander family were strong, but they were not Grand Masters.
That’s why he hadn’t really felt the strength of a Grand Master.
But he felt it 확실하게 [definitely] this time.
To defeat a Grand Master, he had no choice but to become a Grand Master himself.
He needed to reach the 8th circle.
The difference between the 7th and 8th circles feels even greater than the difference between the 6th and 7th circles.
“Who are the 8th circle dark mages again?”
Lich Mamon searched his mind. A good thing about being a lich is that his mind has become sharper.
As soon as he thought ‘8th circle dark mage,’ several names quickly came to mind. When they were active, when they died, what evil deeds they committed.
There are only nine 8th circle dark mages within 500 years.
Less than two per century. A very small number. That means it’s that much harder to reach the 8th circle.
Lich Mamon is trying to challenge that.
“This person was executed, so no. This person converted to white magic.”
He eliminated six out of the nine.
The remaining three.
The whereabouts of these people are unknown.
They likely created dungeons and devoted their lives to research. If Lich Mamon finds their dungeons, his chances of reaching the 8th circle will greatly increase.
-May the dragon prince sleep peacefully.
-Monster that eats even the reincarnation of black flames.
-Immortal Divine Dragon Dropout.
Finding their hidden dungeons would be a real jackpot.
“It won’t be easy to find these dungeons, right? And also…….”
Mamon pondered for a moment before speaking.
“How am I going to take Master there…….”

The Shuttle was seriously 고민 중이었다 [deep in thought].
“What will happen to me when this is over?”
He 괜히 [uselessly] tore up the contract and experienced hell. Surprisingly, something faint appeared before his eyes and recreated the contract.
-You crazy bastard. It clearly says not to tear up the contract. Hey, put your stamp on it again. If you don’t, you’re really dead.
It was a curse spirit.
Unfortunately, the Shuttle couldn’t see the spirit.
He just felt that something was definitely there in front of him. The curse spirit madly hit the back of the Shuttle’s head.
-You son of a bitch, you son of a bitch, you ugly son of a bitch who can’t come to his senses. Try tearing up the contract again. The Queen of Curses will come herself and make you be with her.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Shuttle was hit so much that the back of his head swelled up as if he had a lump. He was hit, but he didn’t know who was hitting him.
The more he cursed, the more he got hit.
-You son of a bitch, you son of a bitch, where did you learn to curse like that? Who taught you that? You son of a bitch, a son of a bitch that even I can’t see. Just die! You son of a bitch.
It seemed that the curse spirit had quite a lot 쌓인 [built] up against the Shuttle without him knowing.
The curse spirit stopped hitting the Shuttle after its palms were swollen. Then, it held out the restored contract to the Shuttle.
The Shuttle was 진심 [sincerely] scared.
He is a necromancer.
He was an existence that even ordinary people were reluctant to approach. He, who controlled the dead, was terrified. Now, I will never curse Legion-nim [Legion – honorific suffix] in my heart again.
He grabbed the contract floating in the air and checked it.
One more item had been added to the contract.
-I have nothing to say even if I get hit. You can hit me anytime.
“What the hell is this…….”
-Sign it. You son of a bitch. I wrote it. A guy like you needs to be hit.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The curse spirit 날렸다 [sent flying] the back of the Shuttle’s head with its other hand.
The Shuttle cried and stamped the contract. Since then, he has become someone who cannot escape from Legion.
“But I can’t stay here. Let’s run away for now.”
The Shuttle made up his mind.
He can leave this place to Drazzer.
There was nothing he could gain by 끼어들어서 [intervening] in the fight between monsters. If he 괜히 [uselessly] watched and got hit by a stray stone, there would be nowhere to complain.
The Shuttle walked carefully so as not to provoke the undead.
Following behind him, skeleton soldiers carrying Legion on their shoulders, who had been knocked down by the tail of the Bone Dragon, followed.
쿵쿵쿵! 쿵쿵쿵! [Thump, thump, thump!]
Explosions that shook the heavens and the earth occurred one after another above their heads. Lumps of fire fell everywhere, and the wooden houses caught fire.
Fires broke out everywhere, but there was no one who had the 정신이 [presence of mind] to put them out.
쿵쿵쿵! [Thump, thump, thump!]
Huge rocks, stone houses, and stone towers swept away by the Bone Dragon’s tail soared hundreds of meters into the air like light toys.
They fell back to the ground in droves.
Unfortunately, they fell right in front of the Shuttle’s nose.
If it had been just one second faster, he would have been crushed to death by these stones.
When he 잠시 [briefly] looked up at the sky, 집채만 한 [house-sized] rocks were pouring down from the sky. The Shuttle quickly began casting spells to block the rocks.
Every time huge rocks flew in, the Shuttle felt like he was being 짜부가 [squashed flat].
Still, just when he thought the rocks were no longer flying, a black shadow was blocking his view.
It was the Bone Dragon’s huge tail, which had approached before he knew it, to attack Legion. Although the Bone Dragon’s tail was cut off, it was as strong and fast as before.
Ahhh! I’m screwed. I’m going to die like this!
The Shuttle 질끈 [tightly] closed his eyes.
콰콰콰콰콰콰쾅! [Kwakwakwakwakwakwang! – Onomatopoeia for a massive explosion]
Just in time, Legion opened his eyes.
* * *
It’s 난리 [a mess] as soon as I open my eyes.
Legion hurriedly used magic to bounce the Bone Dragon away, then 갈궜다 [scolded] Drazzer.
“Hey! I’m busy, so you take care of this guy!”
Drazzer pouted and really 맡았다 [took on] the Bone Dragon.
With that opening, Legion 뒹굴었다 [rolled around] in the muddy water in one corner of the floor. Muddy water filled his armor.
Steam rose everywhere.
It seemed his body was incredibly hot.
Oh! It’s done!
-Disassembly is in progress. However, a small side effect has occurred.
The voice of artificial intelligence 울렸다 [echoed] directly in Legion’s head. He clenched his teeth.
역시 [as expected] there’s no way there wouldn’t be side effects.
What is it! What’s the side effect?
-Due to the rapid disassembly of the armor, you have developed hyperhidrosis [excessive sweating]. Also, because you took off the armor in an imperfect state, you have become very vulnerable to heat.
What does taking off the armor quickly have to do with being vulnerable to heat?
-Your constitution has changed. So you can’t wear armor for a while. And I recommend that you don’t even wear clothes for at least ten days.
What kind of 개소리 [bullshit] is that? You’re telling me to be completely naked?
Do I have to be completely naked?
-Your body temperature is much higher than ordinary people. If you stay like this, your blood may boil and you could die. Please find a way to lower your body temperature. I will now release the iron armor. Do you agree?
Wait, 잠깐만 [just a moment]!
-Please speak.
Can’t I take off the helmet?
-Would you like to never take it off?
No, no. What are you talking about!
Legion 발끈해서 [angrily] shouted.
Just for a while. Because the skin color of my face and body is different right now. At least until the skin colors are all the same.
-Possible.
Ah, that’s a relief. Thank you.
-You’re welcome. I will now begin disassembling the iron armor.
Okay.
쿵쾅쿵쾅 [Thump, thump].
My heart is racing like crazy.
I’m just taking off the iron armor, but my heart is beating like this.
철컹 [Clang]!
The seams of the iron armor, which had been 붙여 놓았던 [stuck together] with super glue, 벌어졌다 [opened]. A considerable amount of steam was 뿜어져 [spewed] out with a 치익 [hiss] sound.
The Shuttle, who was lying underneath, 깜짝 놀라서 [startled] shouted, ‘It’s hot. It’s hot,’ but Legion couldn’t hear him.
철컹, 철컹 [Clang, clang].
The iron armor 벌어졌다 [opened] completely from the shoulder line to the toes.
Finally!
Legion had 해제를 시킨 [released] the iron armor from his entire body. He slowly raised his body.
-‘Handsome Explosion’ passive skill is activated.
A solid body over 180 centimeters [approximately 5’11”].
The 터질 듯한 [bursting] muscles quickly 줄어들었다 [shrank].
As it 초압축 [super-compressed], he was transforming into Gando-won, the most successful 연극배우 [theater actor] in the kingdom.
The same goes for his thighs, which were only the size of a woman’s waist.
Skin so 새까만 [jet black] that it’s barely visible at night.
A ferocious glint shining from within the helmet.
Legion took a deep breath.
Legion had already 쌓은 무지막지한 [accumulated tremendous] magic power. That magic power was 불어나고 [increasing] 200 percent.
1+1 is 2.
But 1,000,000,000+1,000,000,000=2,000,000,0000.
Legion had gained unimaginable magic power.
-쿠오아아아아아아앙! [Kuoaaaaaaaang! – Roar of a monster]
Numerous zombies discovered Legion. They 괴성을 지르면서 덤벼들었다 [screamed and charged] towards Legion.
Legion 휘둘렀다 [swung] his hand towards them as if he were fanning them.
꽈지지지지직! [Kwajijijijijik! – Sound of something cracking and breaking]
It wasn’t magic.
It wasn’t 응축된 [condensed] magic power either.
He had simply 휘둘렀을 [swung] his palm with just magic power. It was just a simple action that anyone could do-
Dozens of zombies could not 견디지 못하고 [withstand] the power and 바스러졌다 [crumbled to dust].
“Ah, this refreshing air.”
Legion took a deep breath. He hadn’t taken off his helmet yet, but as much as his body had become lighter, his entire body felt like a feather, as if he could fly.
-쿠오오오오오오! [Kuoaaaaaaa! – Roar of a monster]
The Bone Dragon 내리찍었다 [slammed] its tail towards Legion.
The Shuttle 질끈 [tightly] closed his eyes and 잃어버렸다 [lost] consciousness from the terrible 고린내 [stench]. It was clear that the smell was coming from the armor 누르고 [pressing] his back.
콰와아아아아아앙! [Kwawaaaaaaang! – Onomatopoeia for a massive impact]
놀랍게도 [Surprisingly]-
Legion 튕겨 냈다 [deflected] the tail with the back of his hand. And he moved his body lightly.
His muscles, which were 부풀어 오른 [swollen] like crazy, moved like an 성난 [enraged] lion.
-쿠오오오오! [Kuoaaaa! – Roar of a monster]
Pang! [Bang!]
With the sound, his entire body 떠 있었다 [was floating] in front of the Bone Dragon’s eyes. It was an 믿기지 않는 [unbelievable] speed.
Legion, who had 벗어 던진 [thrown off] the 250-kilogram [approximately 550 pounds] armor and iron sword, had gained a speed that was 보고도 믿을 수 없는 [impossible to believe even when seen].
-쿠오오오오오! [Kuoaaaaaaa! – Roar of a monster]
The Bone Dragon’s 입이 [mouth] 삼켰다 [swallowed] Legion.
Legion 찢어 버렸다 [tore apart] the Bone Dragon’s mouth with 완력 [brute force]. The 부서진 [shattered] jaw 떨어졌다 [fell] in all directions as it 깨지면서 와자작 [crashed and shattered].
The Bone Dragon, whose jaw was 박살 난 [smashed], 주춤주춤 물러났다 [staggered] back.
Legion 희죽 웃었다 [smirked] while looking at the Bone Dragon.
“Now it’s my turn?”
