Chapter 74 Strongest Sage, Regenerates

" . . . One . "

I took a moderately sized magic stone out of Storage magic, put my mana on it and crushed it .

However, my objective this time isn't for 【Special Mana Enchant】 .

The mana contained within the magic stone gets released into the surroundings without being used at all .

"Two . "

While controlling the mana a bit to hold it back from scattering away, I crushed another magic stone .

The mana flow in the surroundings has changed compared to the usual .

A sign that it's only a step away from Mana Disaster .

While monitoring that, I take out another magic stone and crush it .

"Three!"

Afterward, the whirlpool that contained a vast amount of mana converged and started to emit light .

It's an occurrence of Mana Disater .

However, it's not like I failed .

On the other hand, I broke the magic stones to bring about this phenomenon .

"Who would have thought that you would forcefully make me materialize from my Mist form . . . Elhart called you monster . . . But even 'monster' is too lukewarm to call you . "

"Nah, not really . I actually wanted to force you out of hiding with a proper method, but I couldn't use it . "

Among the type of Mana Disaster, the most common one is monster outbreak .

Usually an outbreak of a large quant.i.ty of monsters would happen--however, there are cases where it doesn't happen depending on the surroundings .

One of those cases is when a 『Mist Demon』 is merged into the surroundings .

If the Mana Disaster is of a small scale, the 『Mist Demon』 will be materialized instead of monster outbreak occurring .

--Well it's quite the brute force of a method, and has a disadvantage .

"However, know that my rank differs from that of Elhart . Moreover, today I'm overflowing with power for some reason . Now that you've summoned me, are you ready to die?"

"I already know that you're of a different rank . I'm not gonna die though . "

I probe into Arias's mana while talking to buy some time .

Looks like he really got stronger compared to before materializing .

Overflowing with power doesn't seem to be an exaggeration .

This is the side effect of forcing a 『Mist Demon』 to materialize through Mana Disaster .

Monsters summoned by Mana Disaster are usually powered up by the huge amount of mana .

It's the same for demons .

" . . . I see . Then you can realize that by dying!"

Arias swung his sharp claws and kicked the ground .

Just as he said, his speed is incomparable to Elhart's .

That's why, I parried the attack without using Physical Reinforcement and 【Mana Slash】, and attacked back .

At the same time, I a.n.a.lyze the enemy's habit, moves and battle style .

And after exchanging a few blows, I got the information I needed .

Now's the time to execute the plan .

"Mu!?"

As I exchanged blows with Arias, I used the recoil and movement magic to retreat close to the wall .

While watching Arias who was surprised at my sudden action, I constructed magic--kicked the wall and closed the distance between us at once, slas.h.i.+ng at him with my sword as I pa.s.sed by .

And right after that my left arm--fell to the ground .

This isn't illusion that I used in the fight against Elhart .

My arm really did get chopped off by Arias .

"This match is over . I'll let you choose how you'll die . . . How do you wanna die?"

Arias asked me while looking at my fallen arm .

Looks like he's convinced of his victory .

However, of course I don't plan to die .

"Sorry, but I don't plan to die again for at least 1000 years . Think it's too early to choose the way I'm gonna die . "

I turn around at Arias while resetting my sword in my right hand .

Looks like the preparation for the real battle is complete .

"You're bluffing . Even if it wasn't your dominant arm, losing one is--"

As he said that while readying his sword, the right arm that Arias cut flew toward me --

The next moment, my arm is reattached back as if nothing happened .

" . . . You, are you really a human?"
