Chapter 94 - Forest of Eternity 2 (2/2)

“It’s him!That magician is revolting against Aedia!”

Since Artpe was flying high in the air, he was highly visible.Several magicians yelled out towards him.

Artpe had never joined Aedia, yet they were saying he was revolting against them?They were full of hot air.Did they think all magicians in the world originated from Aedia?He sneered at the arrogant and narrow-minded magicians as he increased his speed.

“You dare to bare your teeth on your benefactors.You stupid….Punish him!”

“Show them the power of Aedia!”

Countless spells surged into the sky of the capital.The most common spells seen was the Magic Missle, Fireball and Ice Spear.Then there were the more uncommon AOE magic coming towards Artpe.

Each Mana had its own color and texture, so the banquet of spells surging into the air looked like a firework show.However, each spell contained enough power to easily kill a person.If one underestimated the power of these spells, it was a mistake one would never make again in this life.

‘They know that all the magicians they sent towards me had been wiped out, yet they are attacking me in such a simplistic manner…..I guess it is in the nature of magicians to act this way.’

Artpe was high in the sky, and spells were flooding towards him.The sight made him remember an incident from his past life.It wasn’t something that he had experience, but it was something he had witnessed.

‘At the time, Regina had been with them.When she found out of the truth, she became enraged and she sided with the hero.However, Aedia foolishly continued to believe until the end that they would be able to control her.They had been extremely foolish…..’

As the weakest amongst the Four Heavenly Kings, Artpe was tasked to keep surveillance over the hero’s party.When he saw the sight of a girl regain her freedom, he clenched his fists as he cheered for her.He cheered for her even though he wasn’t in a position to do so.After the Absolute Control had been used against him, he had been tormented for a long time.When he looked back on it, it was a fond memory…..No, it wasn’t a good memory at all.

“Let us engrave the laws of the magic kingdom onto his soul!”

“It isn’t enough.I want everyone to pour out more spells!”

It seemed they were dissatisfied with the sight of Artpe floating in the air in a free and easy manner.Artpe hadn’t asked for it, but the magicians sent additional spells towards him.They were recklessly consuming their Mana.It seemed some had consumed potions ahead of the battle, and there were those that were currently consuming potions.It was a sight to behold.

“You all haven’t noticed that just pouring out your spells towards me is ineffective.You lost the moment you failed to realized this fact.”

No, they might have lost from the moment they thought they could imprison Regina indefinitely.This had been true in the past life.They were brought down completely, because they had been deluding themselves.

“Eh-eet.”

Artpe lightly swung his hand. The several hundred Mana Strings split into couple thousand Mana Strings.Each strand of Mana String nullified a spell, and Artpe was able to charge forward without losing momentum.

He didn’t feel nervous at all, since he could easily block the attacks.The spells were only a minor annoyance to him.Any magic spell that could be used by the magicians of Aedia didn’t amount to much.

‘There’s only three magicians that are over level 200.I’m sure many of the higher level magicians are dispatched to Tiata and the Forest of Eternity.They are lacking in terms of the number of powerful magicians they possess.’

This was why the magic kingdom, which had been touted to be the strongest on this continent, was in such a predicament.This was also the reason why the hero was the only hope for humanity.Aedia didn’t possess much power, yet they became full of themselves. It was so pathetic that it made him want to shed a tear.

“Still, I shouldn’t repeat what happened in the past.”

In the middle of the sky, Artpe kept erasing the countless spells that were being thrown at him.As he did so, he slowly closed his eyes, and he started gathering all his Mana that wasn’t being used by the Mana Strings.

“You are an organ that excretes the foul desire.”

Artpe started chanting the only Great Magic he could use.

“You have accepted the filth of humans.You are a mystery of nature locked up away in misery.”

He had already set his target.As he blocked all the magic spells, he reached the center of the capital where there was a raised structure.

“Reval your fermented anger.Put the humans in their place.”

Magic circle?

It was surprising.Artpe hadn’t made any prior preparations, yet the magic circle was present.The magic circle encompassed the entirety of this regions.If one wanted to find such magic circles, one could probably find it in all the cities within Aedia.

This was obvious, but Artpe hadn’t installed it here.They had done it themselves.

“I will allow it, so go find your freedom.Rampage to your heart’s content.”

A purple magic item started to rise out from his bosom. It was the Demite, which he had finished refining,It possessed a will of its own, and the Demite acted to support Artpe in the chanting of his spell.It endlessly amplified the magical energy.

“He’s casting a spell!He’s using a Great Magic through a magic circle!”

“You idiot!We would have known if he created a magic circle here.!”

“Destroy it!We have to destroy the magic circle now!”

“B...but this magic circle is…..Oh my god.”

Yes, they wouldn’t be able to destroy it.

This magic circle was a symbol that represented the prosperity of the magic kingdom of Aedia.

A magic circle wasn’t made purely out of Mana. Other material was needed to make what was considered to be greatest technique of this century.

A complete magic circle could created and maintain a spell.

The magic circle was a reminder to humanity and even the Demon race that magic was boundless in its use!

“That is why I want you to cover them equally.”

In the end, Artpe hadn’t been interrupted while he completed his magic spell.However, there wasn’t a smile of relief on his face.He had a resigned expression on his face.

“Flow backward.”

All of Artpe’s Mana was sucked into the Demite.In an instant, it spread across the raised structures in the region.It spread ‘below’ to permeate into the buried magic circle.

Arpte’s expression seemed to question whether he should be doing this or not.

He finished his spell.

“God Flush.”

······the sewer system that was installed across the entirety of the capital exploded all at once.
