SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar

Chapter 876 Dark Lovers

?

A disturbing silence echoed as all parties partook in a staring deadlock.

Jared Leonard, floating in his majesty.

The Outers, transfixed in their surprise.

Jane Ursula, brimming with satisfaction.

… And Merlin, pale with horror.

"Looks like our long game has come to a close, Master. I learned a lot from you, but there's literally nothing else you can teach me." Jared gleamed evilly.

He used his fingers to tap his head, his smile intensifying. "Everything is already in here."

It was now checkmate.

"You should know this already, but the [Dark Summon: Wraith] Spell isn't only used to deal with physical opponents."

It instantly dawned on Merlin what Jared meantg by his statement.

"N-no… please wait…" He began to whimper.

"Incorporeal enemies are a chore to deal with, you know? That's why Spells like these are useful."

Merlin found himself paralyzed despite how horrified he was by the fate that awaited him. The Wraith whom he summoned was already drawing closer to his ghost form.

"I should thank you for freeing me from the burden of summoning the Wraith myself. As always, you've been most useful."

"Wait, Jared! Hold on! L-let's be rational about this and—"

"I am being rational, though."

"I am your Master!"

"That didn't stop you from betraying me."

"I-I was going to fulfil your dreams. I promise! I swear! Hey, just listen to me. Stop that Wraith, Jared. Jared! Lewi—"

Before Merlin could say any more, the Wraith pounced on him, devouring his soul and extinguishing the last flicker of life that existed there.

In a mere moment, it was snuffed out.

"Urgh. Finally. Good riddance to bad rubbish, am I right, guys?" Jared's attention moved to the Outers, who were still shell-shocked by the sight before them.

"Oh, don't give me that expression. You saw how he was, didn't you? He deserved it." It felt a little strange hearing someone who appeared far worse condemn another villain.

It was the perfect example of the pot calling a kettle black.

"Don't worry, though. You'll be joining him soon. One thing to get out of the way first, though…"

Jared shifted his attention from his enemies and focused everything on the most important aspect of his grand plan.

"Jane, you genius!" He grinned, launching himself at her.

Gracefully, yet swiftly, he closed the distance they had, grabbing her by her slender waist as he pulled her close to his chest.

The onlookers knew better than to interfere, lest they got caught up in a crazier affair. Plus, Jared's current power made it impossible for them to get close, even if they tried.

"Huhu… you and your sweet mouth." Jane licked her lips as she drew her face closer to his. In that single magical moment, both of them merged lips and kissed.

[Meanwhile]

"What the heck? Yuck! Why in the… with Jane? Urghhh! Whyyyy!"

I almost retched multiple times just watching the display of affection between this world's version of me, and this world's version of Jane Ursula.

It was so gross.

'I mean, Jane isn't bad by any means. No, she's actually really pretty, but… hey, what am I thinking?!'

I could feel my cheeks grow hot, and an uncomfortable feeling swirling deep inside me.

"Hell no! I don't like Jane! We're just friends. Best buds! Yes… that's all!"

I wasn't just saying this for my sake. It was true.

Honestly!

I truly had no feelings for that woman.

… We were just friends.

"Mmmhmmm"

The two lovers locked eyes as they concluded their passionate kiss.

"That was amazing…" Jane whispered.

"Looks like this new body's gonna be great." Jared responded with a sly grin.

Normally, if something as bizarre as a body swap occured between a lover, the other lover was bound to feel a little weirded out. It would usually take some time before they could achieve the same level of intimacy as before.

But that logic did not apply to Jared and Jane.

He had already reincarnated once, after all. Having a different body wasn't so strange.

"You're even more endowed down there…" Jane grabbed something in-between Jared's legs, causing him to let out a soft moan. "It's bigger than your first body. Isn't that hot?" She licked her lips seductively.

Jared gulped, feeling something rise—both within him, and without.

"You little tease. I'm going to enjoy breaking you…" Jared grinned, responding to her tease.

"Oh? How will you do it? Which 'me' will you break? My smaller form or—"

"HEY! THAT'S ENOUGH!" A voice suddenly halted Jared and Jane's conversation.

It penetrated the darkness that enveloped them, and the power was enough to break the concentration the two had.

"Please, just stop. I can't… can't stand this anymore!" The voice cried out.

Jared and Jane cleared up their dark smokescreen and were surprised to find a blue-haired stranger floating in the sky as he complained about their actions.

"Isn't that…"

"Yeah. The one who fought Gawain. As I suspected, he is an Outer. I wonder why he didn't show up sooner." Jared smirked.

"Maybe he was tending to the other territories. It would make more sense that way, considering they were able to fall so easily."

"Hmm… true…"

Jared and Jane stared at each other so affectionately once more, and everything around them vanished, including the intruding stranger.

Their faces drew closer to each other, and just as they were about to connect—

"Come on, guys! Break it up. It's gross!"

"Shut up!" Jared instantly snapped, sending an immense surge of Dark Energy flying in the direction of the intruder.

It seemed due to his anger, he had let out more power than necessary. This amount that currently lunged toward the imbecile was enough to wipe out the entire Outgroup—no, perhaps even more than that.

'Oh well…' Jared thought with a smirk '... I suppose he'll learn his manners in the gra—'

>SHUUUUUUUUUUUU<

His eyes twitched as he felt the immense Dark Energy he threw dissipate.

"What?"

At this point, both Jared and Jane gave the stranger their whole attention, finding him complely unharmed.

"Haa… really." The blue-haired imbecile groaned. "How am I supposed to face Jane when I get back?"
