Chapter 89: The President and the Wizard
Chapter 89: The President and the Wizard
Igni: “[Equip Flame] {Ignition}!”
Igni’s Incantation echoed across the shores of the beach like a roar.
He makes all 5 {Fireballs} glow white with heat!
Igni: “[Launch] {Fire}!”
Abyss: “[Mimic him]”
One of the Black Figures melts to the ground, but then begins to rotate at high speeds, and changes its form to something similar to a {Shadow Ball} and shot towards the {Fireball} and collides.
An explosion of flames and winds scatters around, and Igni’s {Fireballs} were all shot down.
Igni: “[Equip Flame] {Ignition} : {Scatter Shot}”
Igni completes his incantation against the crowd of black figures.
Igni: “[Launch] {Fire}!”
And with Igni’s shotgun-like shot, the Pitch Black Figure ?? the strangely shaped creatures which Abyss called his “kinsmen” began to fall in groups.
Abyss: “Whoa? great, amazing.”
Even though Abyss’ kinsmen are being slain, he applauded Igni without changing the expression on his face.
Igni: “[Equip Flame] {Ignition} : {Snipe}”
A much smaller {Fireball} with much more Magic Power poured into it began to rotate at high speeds.
His aim is for Abyss’ chest ? specifically his heart.
If it was any ordinary person, it would be a fatal shot, but Abyss is an [Extreme].
There’s no way he would die from this.
Igni: “[Launch] {Fire}”
And Igni fired his shot.
<PAAANNN!!> (sfx) And with a dry sound of something erupting, Igni’s {Fireball} pierced Abyss’ heart region!
Abyss: “(cough). Ouch?”
Abyss continued to smirk and smile as he threw up blood.
But the next moment, Abyss’ wound completely healed.
At that moment, one of the kinsmen that Igni didn’t attack fell over.
Glancing at the body, Igni saw that the kinsmen’s chest had a hole in its chest region.
Igni: “........I see…...you pushed your wounds on it……”
Igni mumbles quietly and quickly.
Abyss: “Correct. That’s why I can’t die.”
Igni: “But you’re not immortal.”
Abyss: “Yeah, but I’m like half immortal now. Someone like you would never be able to stop me…..”
The next instant, the skies brightened as if it turned into mid-day.
Abyss: “...........huh?” In the sky are countless {Fireballs}.
Igni: “[Equip Flame] : {Homing}”
Abyss: “Oh…..”
That was the first time Abyss’ expression changed.
Igni: “16,384 {Fireballs}. If I strike an enemy with all of this, what would happen?”
Abyss: “Interesting! Try it out!”
Igni: “[Bombardment] {Fire}”
<ZUDODODODODO!!!!> (sfx)
The impact of the {Fireballs} shook the ground!!
16,384 {Fireballs} began raining down on Igni’s enemy one by one!!
The {Fireballs} struck Abyss but also took out his kinsmen with the explosions and impacts.
But among the carnage, Igni continued to watch Abyss continually heal the entire time with both eyes.
Igni: “That wasn't enough, huh.”
Igni wiped out all of Abyss’ kinsmen and posed the question to Abyss.
Abyss: “Isn’t it obvious? What idiot would bring out everything with him from the beginning?”
And what Abyss said made sense.
But……
Igni: “Then, I just have to continue taking you down.”
Abyss: “If you want to take me down, yeah. But if you want me to stop me, no.”
Igni: “What are you……..” Before he could finish his words, something happened on the second floor of the lodge.
Exactly where the Student Council Members’ room was, there was an explosion of darkness that erupted from there!
Abyss: “That’s...what I meant.”
Igni turns around, and seeing that no one had come outside, he turns back to face Abyss.
Igni: “You…..completely underestimated us.”
Abyss: “What?” Igni: “No one came out of the window.”
Abyss: “Yeah, it’s because I caught them.” Igni: “Do you really believe that?” Igni cannot use Spells as much as others.
Because of that, in exchange, he sharpened his [sight] to be able to read even evolved Spells.
He saw with his eyes that detected the manipulation of Magic Power, and stared inside the room enveloped in darkness.
Igni: “No one’s come outside because no one got caught.”
Abyss: “A Disruption Spell User, huh. Now that’s surprising.”
Igni knew the Spell user very well.
Igni: “President Miru! Please lend me your help!”
Miru: “Okie dokie.”
The next moment, the shadows that enveloped the window was cast aside, and President Miru jumped out.
Looking towards the window, Miss Miko had Sara in her arms and was ready to take action.
Miru: “So, Igni. Who’s this?” Igni: “He’s the [Extreme] of [Darkness].”
Miru: “Why is he going after Sara?”
Igni: “He wouldn’t answer that question.”
Miru: “I see. Then let’s make him talk.” Igni: “Yes.” Igni takes the rearguard and Miru steps forward into the vanguard position.
Igni: “President Miru, he can transfer the damage he receives onto his Monster-like minions.”
Miru: “That’s pretty amazing.”
Igni: “That’s why, I need the help of your Spell.” Miru: “OK?! Leave that part to me.”
Miru was a child prodigy that fulfilled the Rolmod Wizard Academy’s entrance requirements at the mere age of 13.
Her compatibility is [Darkness] : [SS].
And she placed most of her talents into one specific Spell Inscription.
That is where her Wizard Title is derived from.
Igni: “I’ll deliver the final blow. President Miru, could you….” Miru: “I already know. Leave that to me.”
Igni: “Thank you for your help.”
Miru: “My adorable underclassman is asking. Of course I can’t say no ?”
Miru came forward.
Abyss: “[Those who crawl and suffer, flood the ground and capture thy prey]”
<SHU!> (sfx)
A sound of something cutting through the wind is heard as a black shadow stretches from Abyss to Miru.
But as soon as Miru steps on that shadow, the shadow dissolves.
Abyss: “Ha! So you’re the Spell Disruptor!”
Miru: “Yup, that’s me?”
President Miru walks straight forward.
Abyss: “[Strong One. Come out of the Darkness]”
The Black Arm that suddenly came out of the ground tried to grab a hold of Miru and……….it was also dissolved.
Abyss: “That’s an amazing Disruption Spell. You’re not just applying it to Spells, but to Spiritual Bodies as well……….wait, no. Just then, you destroyed the Spell Inscription that allowed it to cross over worlds.”
Miru: “That’s right. Any Spells that touch me, any Spells I touch. Either way, they can all be <UNDONE>. That’s why I am Miru, [The Undoer].”
Abyss: “So you’re the rumored genius! I didn’t think I would meet you here!”
Miru: “Yup. So why don’t you surrender and come with us quietly?” Abyss: “I don’t wanna.”
The next moment, Abyss jumps into the air.
In one leap, he instantly moved in front of the lodge.
There, he met the Student Council Members that came down out of the window.
Abyss took one look at Sara who was being held in Miko’s arms.
Abyss: “Huh….so you’re stopping it with this bracelet.”
And Abyss touches the bracelet.
Igni: “Miss Miko!”
Miko: “Get away from her!!”
And with that Miss Miko drives her foot into Abyss’ stomach.
The next second, Abyss’ body flies backwards.
Miru: “And with that, it’s over.”
Miru touches Abyss’ body.
The next instant, Igni’s Spell pierces Abyss’ body from straight above him.
Abyss, who couldn’t transfer the damage anymore, smiles at Miru.
Abyss: “<I’ve memorized it now>.”
With that, his pierced body started melting into the sands of the beach.
Abyss: “It’s an interesting Spell Inscription.” Those were his last words before Abyss’ body completely dissolved and disappeared.
Igni: “........that was……” Miru: “It means that wasn’t his real body either, probably.” President Miru smiles as she said so.
Igni: “I see. So like…….a clone? Something like that?” Miru: “I wonder? He might not even have a real body any more.”
Miru smiles.
Miru: “Well, let’s go back to the lodge. But…...we’ll have to pay for the damages done to the window.”
Igni: “Wouldn’t the Academy help us pay if we explain the situation?” Miru: “Hmmm? yeah, thankfully, I think they will. If we had to pay out of our budget, it would hurt pretty badly.”
Igni: “Yeah, that would certainly be true.”
And as the two talked, they sensed a presence from behind them.
“Hey.” From the tree’s shadow, Abyss appeared.
Igni: “How troublesome.”
Miru: “Yup, he really is.”
Igni and Miru took one look at Abyss and let out an exasperated sigh.
