Magic Is Learned For Nothing [EN]: Chapter 499

Standing Under the Shade of Trees 1

Legion was disappointed.

Absorbing the Black Dragon’s remaining body didn’t make his physique incredibly stronger.

What he wanted was to become the strongest superhuman in the universe, to make a grand entrance and defeat the Black Dragon.

It would have been even cooler if the Black Dragon said as he died, ‘Kuh-huh, I do not die. I merely fade away. I will return after you grow old and die.’

Well, if it’s after I grow old and die, I wouldn’t care if the next world is destroyed or not.

Do I have to worry about my descendants?

If the Black Dragon revives again, he just needs to become as strong as me.

Oops, I was having ridiculous thoughts.

Anyway, what I gained wasn’t power stronger than the Black Dragon.

It’s the ability to synchronize with the Black Dragon.

What is that, you ask?

It’s exactly this.

Fwoooosh!

Three breaths [powerful blasts of energy] disappeared right in front of Dwayne Johnson and Monsenger.

Everyone thought this was truly the end. It was hard enough to block one breath, but three? They figured the Düsselruf Mountains themselves would disappear, or at worst, the Arctic Ocean would evaporate.

But…….

They survived.

“Legion!”

Monsenger called out Legion’s name in a voice of relief without realizing it.

“Son-in-law?”

Dwayne Johnson looked at Legion. He scanned Legion up and down.

Muscular and looks like he has good seed. He’s the strongest human ever. Maybe even stronger than himself.

To shatter that monster’s breath in one blow.

But his appearance is a bit unsettling.

If the legendary playboy Don Juan [a famous fictional libertine] were to be reborn, wouldn’t he look like that?

He’s so handsome that even he, as a man, is mesmerized.

But…….

My daughter likes him…….

Tearing up…….

“I permit your marriage.”

“Huh?”

“Huh?”

Legion and Monsenger simultaneously let out strange groans.

Legion wondered what nonsense this muscle-bound old man was spouting.

Monsenger’s face turned bright red. My dad is really going too far.

“Who are you?”

Legion asked Monsenger.

“My dad.”

“Dad? Ah, father-in-law.”

Huck!

Legion covered his mouth with both hands. This useless past life’s memories. Why does that kind of word pop out at times like this?

“F, father-in-law? Heh-heh, you’re quite the smooth talker. Calling me father-in-law right after I permit the marriage.”

Legion wanted to rip out his own tongue.

This isn’t the time to be saying things like this in a life-or-death situation.

But…….

My eyes are a bit strange.

Legion rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand. Ouch, it stings. There was sand on the back of my hand. Ouch, my eyeballs are going to fall out.

Why does Monsenger look pretty?

It’s a bit much to say this, but wasn’t Monsenger the ugliest of all the women he had seen?

Is this also a side effect of dismantling the Black Dragon’s clone?

It’s not a side effect.

It was just that his twisted body returned to its original state after absorbing the Black Dragon’s body.

Finally…….

His tangled pipe was untangled [a euphemism for restoring his fertility].

He can now produce offspring. Of course, Legion doesn’t know yet.

All he knows is that the world looks somehow different.

What could it be?

Legion looked at the staggering Preity.

Oh my goodness.

That red-haired hag looks incredibly pretty.

He rubbed his eyes again.

Ah, damn it. It stings.

Legion finally brushed off the sand from the back of his hand.

“Why? Did you get hit in the head by the breath?”

Monsenger asked worriedly.

Legion’s heart beats fast. Something’s wrong. Something’s wrong. She’s just my ex-wife. It’s just old feelings. We know everything about each other.

There’s no mystery at all.

But why is my heart racing?

“Son-in-law.”

“Yes?”

Oops, I answered reflexively.

Dwayne Johnson chuckled and said.

“The wedding will be held in both Hell and the human realm.”

What kind of nonsense is that again? Why do I have to go to Hell to have a wedding while I’m still alive? Do you think that makes sense?

“Send me a list of the guests. If there are any of your acquaintances who want to come to Hell, I’ll give them a special commutation. About 1,000 years or so.”

“…….”

Legion was speechless. Let’s not talk. Just don’t talk. A Hell travel package might be created.

Wait, a Hell travel package?

The Wyvern World package is already a hit, but a Hell travel package?

This has the aura of a jackpot.

No. No.

Legion shook his head.

He couldn’t get married just to make money with a Hell travel package. To have to marry his ex-wife again. I want to live with another woman.

Legion looked at Monsenger.

Destiny!

Wow! Damn, it’s blinding! What the heck is going on? Since when did Monsenger become so pretty!

Oh, I see. Monsenger also got plastic surgery magic from Mibaek.

“How much did it cost?”

“What?”

“You got a 20 percent discount by using my name, right?”

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

“It’s okay. You can be honest with me. You got your nose, eyes, forehead, and chin done.”

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

“Didn’t you get plastic surgery magic from Mibaek?”

“…….”

Monsenger frowned her pretty brow. Really, you only see what you want to see. Just because you got plastic surgery magic doesn’t mean everyone else did.

“I’m a natural beauty.”

“Liar.”

“You little punk, seriously.”

“Son-in-law, I guarantee it. My daughter is all-natural. Here, look.”

Dwayne Johnson took out his wallet from his back pocket and pulled out a few photos.

There was a photo taken when Monsenger was a baby, a photo taken when she entered Hell Elementary Academy, and a photo taken when she entered Hell Middle School Academy.

“It’s true.”

She looks the same as when she was young. Monsenger has been beautiful since she was young.

“Of course, it’s true. I guarantee it. My daughter is the most beautiful in the Hell realm.”

“Isn’t this photoshopped?”

“Hey, where did you learn such nonsense…….”

“Okay. I’ll believe you. Anyway…….”

Koo-ooo-ooo!

The Black Dragon’s forefoot fell on Legion’s head. The huge forefoot, which could destroy even a giant building in one blow, was stopped too lightly in Legion’s hand.

“This is a fake hand. This is the real hand.”

Legion shook one arm. A faint light emanates from his left arm. As if in agreement, light was also emanating from the Black Dragon’s entire body.

Legion’s heart is beating.

The Black Dragon’s heart is also beating.

-T, this is impossible…….

For the first time, the Black Dragon was flustered. He, too, apparently hadn’t imagined that this would happen.

The Black Dragon’s mind is his, but the heart was his. The body is the same. He took his arms and legs.

The body was being led by his mind and acting separately. Strength is draining away.

Legion looked around.

He met everyone’s eyes.

“Then I’ll finish it.”

“H, hey, maybe…….”

Monsenger barely managed to open her mouth.

“Maybe what?”

“You’re not planning to die with the Black Dragon, are you?”

“Why would I die?”

“Have you seen the book ‘Dai’s Great Adventure’?”

“I haven’t seen it.”

“In it, Dai flies into space with the Great Demon King at the end and explodes. Many comrades pray to Dai, saying, ‘We’ll wait for you to come back.’ I think he’s dead.”

“So you’re saying I’m going to follow that?”

“Because you’re all about appearances.”

“Are you crazy? I’m going to die just to follow one cool scene at the end. You worry too much.”

“You’re coming back, right?”

“Of course. I’m never going to die until I do that.”

“Do what?”

“There is. That thing.”

Monsenger looked at Dwayne Johnson. Dad, what is that thing that Legion is doing?

Dwayne Johnson looked at the distant mountains at dawn. Ask when you two are alone.

“I’m going.”

Legion activated Skywalking. The giant Black Dragon stood still as if it had become a stone statue.

Only the bewildered eyes shook strongly.

The Black Dragon’s chest opens wide.

As if he had been waiting.

Legion naturally stepped into the Black Dragon’s interior.

* * *

The Black Dragon’s body seemed to be flustered. Suddenly, another neural circuit giving orders was created.

A signal comes down from the head.

-Kill the virus that has invaded the interior! Kill it immediately! Otherwise, we will collapse from the inside.

.

The Black Dragon has evolved to the point where a single cell can crush a 5-star warrior.

The combined power of those cells cannot be measured by anyone. The Demon Realm and the Celestial Realm are also watching the current situation and holding their breath.

They have firmly closed all dimensional doors. They are gathering all their forces and thinking about the aftermath of the destroyed human realm.

They had no intention of helping the human realm. From their point of view, they didn’t care whether humans became extinct or not.

Swish, swish, swish-

Legion reached out his hand.

“Why are you doing this? I am your master. Look. The heart beating powerfully. It is the Black Dragon’s heart. Look at these arms and legs. They are all the Black Dragon’s body. That rotten thing that is currently consuming you is fake. Go. Go and annihilate the fake!”

The Black Dragon’s main body couldn’t do anything.

The Black Dragon, which can be said to be the largest life form that has evolved to over 2 kilometers.

It was impossible to know how much bigger it would evolve. It could maintain the Black Dragon’s appearance in this way, or it could become a living planet shape that is easy to move around.

With will, he becomes anything.

And he absorbs all the energy in the world.

Wasn’t he born that way in the first place?

The Black Dragon likes the light of the world the most. He likes it the most and wants to have it the most.

That’s why he tries to make the energy scattered throughout the universe his own.

Even if the universe perishes and disappears, he thought it had nothing to do with him.

The Black Dragon’s main body stopped as it was.

The mind and heart give different orders. Originally, the mind and heart they knew were one.

If they continued to issue such contradictory orders, they would not be able to move.

Unconsciously, they thought it was better to leave it alone until the opinions of the mind and heart were united.

Kee-ee-ee-ing-

The Black Dragon, which had been firing energy waves non-stop and turning the world upside down, stopped.

“W, we’re alive.”

“Did President Le succeed?”

“Not yet. The Black Dragon has only stopped, but it hasn’t collapsed.”

“Did we just buy time?”

“Maybe.”

The soldiers, who were desperately trying to avoid the energy waves and save the citizens, sat down on the ground and took a breather.

It’s been a week like a nightmare.

This was neither a battle nor a war.

It was a struggle for the survival of humanity. Only then did the soldiers look around.

Almost everything was gone. If the mages of the Magic Tower, under the command of Vasherava Bob, had not united to block the Black Dragon’s formidable energy attack, this place would have disappeared along with the Düsselruf Mountains.

Look.

Alexander, the largest peak of the Düsselruf Mountains, which had protected this land for hundreds of thousands of years, has disappeared.

There was no sign of perpetual snow.

The Düsselruf Mountains had been devastated by energy attacks and breaths.

The topography itself has changed in the territory.

They protected countless people with minimal sacrifice.

If it had been another area, everything would have disappeared long ago.

There was no way to explain it other than the word ‘miracle’ that everyone wanted.

“It’s not over yet, is it?”

A soldier asked Beef.

“No, it’s not.”

“If the Black Dragon starts moving again, we really won’t be able to stop it, right?”

“Probably.”

“I’d rather go to my wife’s side and face the end.”

“Are you married?”

“Yes.”

“How old are you?”

“Seventeen.”

“You son of a bitch, you’re so lucky.”

“Yes?”

“No, I’m just talking to myself.”

Beef forcibly swallowed his rising anger. This guy has a wife, so why don’t I have one yet? Beef still didn’t understand Abdul Jabbar’s words to him, ‘Look in the mirror. You’ll know why.’

“Just wait a little longer.”

“Is there any hope?”

“A little…….”

“Can we really defeat that Black Dragon?”

“It has nothing to do with the battle. The deadline is up. The writer would want to make this novel’s finale more wonderful and splendid. But the candle has already gone out. He has to finish it no matter what.”

“What does that mean?”

“There is such a thing. Now it depends on the writer’s intention. He can destroy the continent according to his taste, chuckle to himself, get cursed by the readers, get kicked out, change his pen name, and sneak back in. Or he can end the long journey with a short but happy ending! Now, writer! What are you going to do?”

…….

To Beef’s blatant cry…….

The writer decided to revise the ending.
