Magic Is Learned For Nothing [EN]: Chapter 320

Magic is Useless-321

# 321

Lead Actor Legion 1

The production presentation for ‘Invincible Fighting Spirit Legion’ was held.

Surprisingly, the distributor was none other than Deungchyeo, the swindler himself. Legion eyed Deungchyeo with suspicion.

“You’re not planning to swindle me, are you?”

“Haha, no. Do you know what the hottest business is these days?”

“What is it?”

“The movie business.”

“Movie business?”

“That’s right. Creating spectacular videos and releasing them simultaneously across the country. Have you seen that movie?”

“What?”

“Captain Kingdom.”

“No.”

“Iron Boy.”

“No.”

“Erk, Tar, Doctor Schumacher, Dinosaur Man, Super Supreme, and so on.”

“No, I haven’t seen them…”

I haven’t seen them.

Why do they feel so familiar? I definitely remember seeing them somewhere. What was it? What was it? I can’t seem to remember.

Why do I feel so… tainted?

It felt like some of the movie titles were closely related to what messed up my life in the first volume.

“You must see them. They are the most entertaining movies. Do you know how much each movie earns?”

“I told you, I don’t know.”

“Approximately 5 million gold. Investors from the Empire are sweeping up the continent’s money.”

Did I hear that right?

“How much?”

“5 million gold. Per movie.”

Legion was breathless.

Not 50,000 gold, not 500,000 gold, but 5 million gold? Per movie? Then, if you make ten movies in a year and they all become hits, how much is that? 50 million gold?

In that moment!

Something came to Legion’s mind.

How about making a movie set in Wyvern World?

A story also came to mind.

Count Legion and his subordinates encounter a siren in the sea and, bewitched, their ship is wrecked.

They barely survive and arrive on a deserted island.

Upon arriving on the island, they are shocked. The world is full of wyverns.

The herbivorous wyvern, Pulmanjabseo [a fictional name], passed by them.

It looked huge and ferocious, but the herbivorous wyvern Pulmanjabseo passed by the humans without even glancing at them.

Little is known about the wyvern ecosystem yet.

However, it is a prejudice to think that all wyverns are carnivores. Some academics have argued that some wyverns are herbivores.

The island had a perfect ecosystem for wyverns.

In fact, it was a secret laboratory created by the King of Gong [a fictional king].

One of the King of Gong’s subordinates combined the blood of ancient wyverns with the DNA of amphibians to upgrade various wyverns, planning to dominate the continent with them.

It was a kind of biological weapon.

However, due to Count Legion’s mistake, the island’s safety management system is paralyzed. With the system paralyzed, the electric fences do not work, and the wyverns try to escape the island.

The worst wyvern king ever!

The predatory wyvern, Nubyeonubyeo [another fictional name], appears.

Count Legion says.

“If they go out into the world, many people will die. But if we risk our lives here, we can stop them. They evolve. Let’s finish them off before they evolve. Even though we will be nameless heroes. What do you think? Isn’t that the life of a man!”

Legion’s subordinates shed tears of emotion at his speech.

And they engage in a desperate battle with the Wyvern King Nubyeonubyeo.

At this time, To be continued…….

The subtitles go up.

A preview of episode 2 is also shown.

Legion smiled contentedly.

Several other ideas come to mind. When I told Deungchyeo about the synopsis, he jumped up and down with joy.

“As expected, Your Excellency is a genius. I will take charge of distribution. I will make sure it is shown in every movie theater across the continent.”

Thus, the plan proceeded smoothly.

Deungchyeo handles the investment and distribution.

From Legion’s perspective, it wasn’t a big loss. No, if the movie fails, the image of ‘Wyvern World’ will be damaged, so there is a risk of loss.

So, Legion decided to actively participate in the movie production.

Legion unleashed a series of attack magic spells.

Hundreds of fire magic spells blazed in the air. The attack magic flew at tremendous speed and struck the Bone Dragon.

The Bone Dragon’s barrier could not withstand Legion’s attack and collapsed.

The Bone Dragon staggered and emitted murderous intent.

-Kuooh!

Powerful magic gathered in the Bone Dragon’s mouth.

The magic power increased tremendously. Soon, breath poured out of the Bone Dragon’s mouth.

‘Ah, this bastard is really shooting it.’

Legion frowned and cast a tenfold barrier.

“Kuh.”

But it was the Bone Dragon’s ice breath.

Even Count Legion could not easily withstand the breath that defied the power of nature.

Count Legion’s barriers shattered one by one. A drop of blood flowed from his lips.

“Is this the end?”

It was then.

Dreyzer stood next to Legion. He neutralized the power of the breath by wielding the Teeth of the Overlord [a powerful artifact].

“Are you already out of strength, you?”

“Hmph, where have you been until now?”

“Sorry. I’m a little late.”

Dreyzer twisted his lips.

“If you lose here, I will hold you accountable. But if you win, I will forgive you.”

“Don’t worry. When the master and I combine, we are invincible. A Bone Dragon like that can never be our opponent.”

Legion and Dreyzer’s magic power increased.

Their magic power, surpassing human strength, split the Bone Dragon’s breath to both sides. And magic and aura struck the Bone Dragon.

-Kwaaaang!

The Bone Dragon, struck in the uvula, screamed strangely and collapsed. A tremendous shockwave spread in all directions, shaking the mountain.

“Cut!”

Gezinese shouted.

He got up from his seat and applauded Legion and Dreyzer. The other staff members did the same. Everyone clapped enthusiastically with amazed expressions.

“Good. Your Excellency! The best scene has been created. Wow! No special effects are needed separately.”

“Really?”

Legion was embarrassed.

Dreyzer is even more embarrassed.

Sam Cruise [a play on Tom Cruise], the kingdom’s best male actor who played the lead role, also clapped with sparkling eyes.

In other words, Legion and Dreyzer are not the lead actors.

They were stunt doubles and stuntmen. There was no other way. There were no magicians or knights to replace them.

No one with the skills to block a dragon’s breath would be a stuntman. A person with the ability to lead a decent unit would not work as a stuntman for a few tens of gold while suffering.

In fact, there was a reason why Legion and Dreyzer had no choice but to be stuntmen themselves.

It was because of the money that went into special effects.

It costs a whopping 200,000 gold to produce special effects?

Legion was horrified.

So he decided to help with the filming directly. It is said that it only takes about 20 takes. Legion thought it would be a profitable business to work for 20 days and save 200,000 gold.

Of course, since they are stuntmen, their faces will not be shown in the movie. He also asked not to put it in the subtitles.

Becoming famous is tiring.

But Dreyzer insisted on including his name. He said he was already famous. But why does this Bone Dragon bastard want to include his name too?

-Krrrr.

The fallen Bone Dragon got up from its seat.

It lumbered over with its huge body and began to monitor the scene filmed by Gezinese.

Then he shook his head.

-Krrrr.

“Yes?”

Surprised, Gezinese shuddered.

In fact, just seeing the Bone Dragon from afar makes him nervous. But having it come next to him and talk like this made it difficult to ignore.

-Krrrr.

“You don’t like the falling scene?”

-Krrrr.

“You want to film it again?”

Gezinese trembled and looked at Legion.

Legion and Dreyzer were also monitoring this scene and sharing their opinions.

They also looked like they didn’t like something.

Gezinese was dying. Think about it. He couldn’t curse at the lord with tremendous power and film the movie as he pleased.

Moreover, his subordinate is Dreyzer.

‘Crazy Dreyzer’, one of the kingdom’s seven strongest and notorious.

At first, he thought he had seen it wrong…….

Crazy Dreyzer is famous for being as proud as his notoriety. He had never heard of him serving anyone.

To see him here.

No one on the filming crew could order him around.

Still, the scariest thing is the Bone Dragon. Originally, they were going to recreate the Bone Dragon in video with special effects.

But Count Legion brought in a real Bone Dragon. The entire filming crew lost their words in amazement.

Lead actress Patona burst into tears the moment she saw the Bone Dragon.

Pitohe was the same. As an ordinary human, even seeing the Bone Dragon was overwhelming.

To be honest, Gezinese is also scared.

Looking at the script written by Count Legion himself, there were still several large-scale battle scenes left.

Count Legion’s battle with the Orc army.

This is the final battle scene of ‘Invincible Fighting Spirit Legion’ Episode 1.

To save budget, this movie is being filmed simultaneously from Episode 1 to Episode 3.

Episodes 2 and 3 are even more spectacular.

Count Legion’s battle with the Death Lord Lich.

Count Legion’s battle with the corpse-loving Necromancer.

Count Legion’s battle with Marquis Porse, who dreams of overthrowing the kingdom.

Even Count Legion’s war with the pagan group Stone Head Church.

Each of the protagonists also boasts a colorful lineup.

What’s amazing is…….

All of these scenes will be recreated in live action without special effects.

Gezinese almost fainted. Is that possible?

Count Legion said it was nothing special and didn’t care.

-Krrrr.

“Yes? Ah, I understand. Let’s go one more time. Are you okay, Your Excellency?”

“Of course.”

“Okay. Get ready. Standby! Cue!”

Gezinese gave the cue sign.

“Fire Tornado!”

With the cue sign, huge flames soared from Legion’s hands.

It’s real!

It’s real 7th circle magic, not a video. 7th circle magic that ordinary people could never see even if they died and came back to life unfolded before the filming crew’s eyes.

The tremendous power chilled the filming crew to the bone.

As the tornado of fire began to rotate, the filming crew had to do everything they could to avoid being caught in its power.

“Ugh, it’s not a horror movie…… I’m scared to death.”

Director of Photography Seo Seo-hae said, trembling.

I agree. I’m scared to death too.

7th circle attack magic that I had never seen before.

It blew away an entire corner of the mountain. A landslide occurs. A huge amount of stones collapsed with a crash. It’s a natural disaster level.

What’s amazing is-

The Bone Dragon volunteered to be hit by the 7th circle magic on purpose.

The reaction was surprisingly spectacular. It was a familiar movement, as if he had done it several times. The Bone Dragon’s huge body spun several times in the air and then fell to the ground. More than a dozen trees were broken and fell.

It really destroys nature easily.

The Bone Dragon fell with a ‘Ugh, I’m frustrated’ expression, spitting blood. That is the only special makeup.

I don’t know why a Bone Dragon made of bones has to spit blood.

But Legion said that it would be much more realistic if the Bone Dragon fell while spitting blood.

Legion, the investor and lord, said so, so what could I, a powerless person, say in rebuttal?

So I did as Count Legion wanted.

The Bone Dragon fell while spitting blood and rolled on the floor.

Shall I be honest?

I don’t know what this ridiculous story is.

But the action is arguably the best ever. Since the actual unfolding scene was filmed as is, the realism was beyond imagination.

It’s either heads or tails [all or nothing].

It will either fail or be a huge hit.
