Hector’s Star.
genius wizard.
The adjectives that describe Edwin Hector prove his special place in the life he lived.
I also had confidence in myself.
and the last few years.
Confidence was slowly eroded.
When he met Roman Dmitri on the southern front, he faced an insurmountable wall and found out the beast that made Hector starve, but the fact that he couldn’t do anything gave him a deep sense of helplessness.
Even under such circumstances, Edwin Hector did not stop.
He did the best he could, such as whipping him hard, practicing magic in the magic tower in the sky, and forming an alliance with Roman Dmitri.
however.
An incident occurred that shattered even the slightest bit of confidence.
In the all-out war between Kronos and Dmitri, the Kronos Empire mobilized as many as 8 magicians.
‘… The level of the 8th circle is an opponent that I can never match no matter how desperately I try and devote myself to training for decades. Kronos Empire. It is such a monster that I wish to avenge, and Roman Dmitri, who fought a fierce war with me on the southern front, has gone far ahead that I dare not even look at.’
It was strange.
The lord of the magic tower in the sky praised Edwin Hector’s development and used the expression ‘genius of the century’, but when he looked up at the sky, there were beings that he couldn’t touch.
Cronus, the enemy of Roman Dmitri and Hector, who gave him defeat.
To reach out and touch them, they have already reached a state beyond the heavens.
succumbed to evil
gritted it
Investing all his time aside from political activities in training, Edwin Hector devoted himself to magical development.
Then one day.
Edwin Hector witnessed a shocking sight.
Swordsmanship presentation.
I saw the future of magic academia in Roman Dmitri, who was telling people about the ‘swordsmanship revolution’.
‘Roman Dmitry expressed the brain as the upper front. Forming a circle at the heart, the middle front, and creating an aura bowl near the lower belly, the lower front, can be interpreted as meaning that the upper front can also develop. If you can unlock the secrets of the top battle. This is sure to be a clue to the magic revolution.’
Magic.
How is the unknown power manifested?
By forming a circle in the heart and assimilating the mana of the circle with the mana of nature, it is possible to manipulate a catastrophe that can be described as a natural disaster according to human intentions.
The circle is not the only requirement for a wizard in this process.
A highly developed brain. If the circle is a channel for mana, the brain can handle the flow of excessive information and mana sucked into the head, so the magic of the high circle can be expressed only when both the circle and the brain are developed.
so that.
The higher the circle, the more developed the heart and brain.
The reason people called geniuses became wizards was because brain development was directly related to magical talent.
blast furnace.
changed his mindset.
If the theory mentioned by Roman Dmitry means the development of the upper front, it could be accepted as meaning that the ‘brain ability’ can be raised.
This was a really great hypothesis.
If a magician of the 3rd circle develops enough to use the magic of the 5th circle, the wizard will show the power to overwhelm the wizards of the same class.
It is not simply that the power of magic increases, but complex synergies, such as the speed of processing magic, will obviously lead to rapid development.
got into trouble
the future ahead.
In order to take revenge on the Kronos Empire, he needed the power to deal with a monster like Shepherd.
at last.
Edwin Hector made a decision.
I wanted to be strong, so I threw away all my pride and left for Dmitry.
The time when the sun rises in mid-heaven.
Edwin Hector arrives at Dmitry after Hoffman leaves.

Asking for information about Sangdanjeon (???).
It was a sudden development.
Even though it was a situation that would have been embarrassing for Roman Dmitri, he looked at Edwin Hector with calm eyes.
“Dmitri and Hector are allies belonging to the same Kingdom Alliance. But that alone isn’t enough reason to tell you about the top tier battles. Why should I go through such trouble?”
at that point.
Edwin Hector’s eyes changed.
It was a rather unfavorable answer, but Roman Dmitri’s remarks made it clear that he knew about upper-level warfare.
then.
This was an opportunity.
Edwin Hector said.
“I also agree that this is a reckless request. It is said that the concept of ‘Danjeon’ was explained at the swordsmanship presentation, but sharing information without a price is to force Dmitry to sacrifice one-sidedly. I’ll tell you straight forward. I’m sure the guild war will be a clue to the magic revolution. If Hector achieves meaningful results through the disclosure of information, the process and conclusions will be transparently disclosed. We will do everything in our power to help Dmitri achieve the same achievements Hector did.”
Didn’t hide the truth.
The hilt belonged to Dmitry.
He was not unaware of the fact that absurd negotiations from the position of absolute B would ruin the relationship.
“And this is confidential, but we are currently secretly moving the Magic Tower in the sky to Hector. I’m not asking you to trust Hector’s ability. The Magic Tower of the Sky and I will unravel the secrets of the Merchant War and create meaningful results. Roman Dmitry. This war proved that the Kronos Empire possesses magical power beyond imagination. Sefir’s magic was devastating, and their limits were unfathomable. The kingdom union also needs strength to stand against it. Hector and the magic tower in the sky. I will become a counterhorse against the wizards of Cronus.”
The world was changing.
Cronus revealed his dirty ambitions, and the fact that he was using black magic put the Mage Tower in the sky in danger.
no more
I couldn’t believe Kronos.
The transfer of the sky was good news for Dmitri.
said Roman Dmitry.
“Dmitry has a phoenix. Do you think they alone can’t figure out the secrets of the Merchant War?”
“no. We appreciate Phoenix’s ability, but we don’t have much time. A truce with the Kronos Empire is meaningless. In a situation where you don’t know when they will reveal their ambitions to conquer the continent again, I think we can quickly achieve results if everyone joins forces. We will actively accept the joining of the Phoenix Mage Tower in the process of researching the Merchant War. Not to monopolize the result. I just hope that we can work together to produce a result that everyone will be satisfied with.”
laughed
Edwin Hector was right.
Honest disclosure of the purpose was the best I could choose from Eul’s position.
Roman Dmitri rose from his seat.
“Move your seats. I have something to show you.”
* * *
The place they arrived at was the Magic Tower.
When Roman Dmitri entered, the Phoenix wizards were startled and quickly lined up.
“What are you doing, my lord?”
It was Felix.
When he confirmed the existence of Edwin Hector, he showed a puzzled look in his eyes.
“I want to use the magic gym. Get a seat and call Knox.”
“All right.”
No special explanation was required.
immediate fulfillment.
Roman Dmitri’s orders were absolute, and whatever orders he gave, the wizards, including Felix, followed them without question.
To them, Roman Dmitry was a divine being.
Didn’t Roman Dmitri rescue the phoenix from the kingdom of the Franks and succeed in rebuilding the Mage Tower?
The work proceeded in an instant.
Following Felix’s guidance, they moved to the Magic Gymnasium, where Nox was waiting for them as ordered.
“Forward Knox.”
“yes.”
Knox came out.
Roman Dmitri said, looking at Edwin Hector, who was still unable to comprehend the situation.
“I heard that after Edwin Hector entered the heavens, he gained enlightenment and entered the 5th circle. Nox is a 5th Circle mage, just like Edwin Hector. If you defeat Nox through magic sparring, I will tell you the secret of the upper guild battle without any preconditions.”
Moment.
Edwin Hector showed a strange expression.
Roman Dmitry’s intentions could not be understood.
But what was certain was that he could not refuse this offer even in order to find out the secret of the war.
blast furnace.
“I will accept Dalian.”
Edwin Hector chose to win for himself.
* * *
Above the gymnasium.
Edwin Hector looked at his opponent.
A battle between wizards and wizards.
In the same situation up to each circle, the success of the first attack was very important.
‘The moment you quickly gain the upper hand. It is difficult to overturn the situation with magic of the same class. From the start, you have to interrupt the opponent’s casting with magic that can be used quickly and bring the atmosphere with a follow-up attack.’
It was a common sense decision.
Magic has many limitations.
The more powerful magic is used, the more complicated calculations and casting process are required, so there is no time to use one’s own magic leisurely in a one-on-one confrontation.
So, in the case of War Mages, there were not many high-circle wizards.
They are the kind who use the magic of the low circle efficiently, and Edwin Hector has learned the method of War Mage through his sufficient war experience.
The circle fluctuated.
Just as he was watching his opponent with sharp eyes, Roman Dmitri sent a signal.
“start!”
“Lightning Arrow.”
do not fall out.
The forerunner was Edwin Hector.
It uses 1-circle magic that can skip casting, and at the same time adds Aqua Arrow to increase the destructive power of the attribute.
The powers of water and electricity mixed and attacked Knox.
Edwin Hector immediately expanded the circle and quickly planned a follow-up attack by casting a high-circle magic.
It was fast.
however.
“Fire Cannon.”
Anger –
Gur r r r r r r r r r r .
Intense fire erupted.
Edwin Hector’s eyes widened.
The fact that the opponent used the magic of the 5th circle without special casting meant that the casting process was omitted through memorization.
It was unexpected.
Before starting the sparring, they agreed to use ‘Memorize Magic’ only once, but I didn’t know that they would try to gain the upper hand by manifesting the 5th circle magic from the start.
this rather.
It was a chance.
Edwin Hector showed simple improvisation rather than memorization magic.
“Stone wall.”
Kururureureung.
Omit existing casting.
Transformed basic elemental magic into a wall.
Forming an intangible force such as fire into a wall is a 4th circle or higher magic, but Stone Wall was a simple magic that did not require casting.
It did not block the opponent’s magic.
A stone wall was formed on the ground he was standing on, and Edwin Hector rose up in the air in an instant.
It
was a terrifying sight.
A shift in thinking.
It made Nox’s magic useless by going beyond the range of the flames without exerting much effort.
Quaang!
Roaring.
Flames exploded.
The Stone Wall melted at once, but thanks to Edwin Hector, he seized the opportunity.
“Memorize Thunder Cannon.”
jjik.
Jijijijijijik.
past experience.
Edwin Hector met a monster like Roman Dmitry on the battlefield.
Realizing that nothing could be done simply by believing in the destructive power of magic, he acquired the improvisation of the War Mages through continuous experience.
It can be risky.
Even if it was a little twisted, it would not be possible to avoid Nox’s magic, but Edwin Hector, who took the upper hand in ‘Memorize’ with bold judgment, seized the opportunity to counterattack.
Confrontation between wizards.
The difference in circles was absolute.
As Nox, who had already used Memorize, there was no way to block the 5th circle’s Thunder Cannon from the front.
Blink is the only way.
It’s enough to move the space, but knowing that, I chose Thunder Cannon, which can attack quickly.
Blink is not omnipotent.
It also obviously requires time for ‘casting’, and Knox immediately after using Memorize has no choice but to counter with the magic of the low circle.
That was the dilemma.
Due to the difference in the circle, Knox will face a situation where a single mistake will lead to defeat.
I wasn’t sure of victory.
but.
I thought I had the upper hand.
Edwin Hector immediately witnessed an unbelievable sight as he prepared the next magic.
“Fire Cannon.”
Hwareuk.
Roaring.
Knox.
The 5th circle magic was manifested again.
Edwin Hector reacted with bewilderment as the electricity and fire clashed violently.
‘… What is this?!’
Did you use memorization?
It wasn’t.
For that reason, the people around him were not agitated.
Then, the only possibility was casting, but it was realistically impossible to cast it so quickly.
generated magic.
He had no intention of admitting defeat.
He staked his life on Hector’s future.
That moment.
“The sparring is already over.”
from right behind.
Knox appeared.
He didn’t have enough strength to use the 5th circle magic in a row, but he also had the ability to preempt the back with Blink.
It was embarrassing.
Couldn’t accept reality.
Edwin Hector had been training tirelessly at the Mage Tower in the Sky, and was confident that he would at least not be pushed back by wizards of the same level.
However, this was an overwhelming result.
As Edwin Hector looked at Knox with a horribly distorted face, Roman Dmitri’s voice pierced his ears.
“Edwin Hector. Dmitry has already applied the theory of ‘top battle’ to magic.”
A crack appeared on his face.
It was shocking.
Dmitri had already occupied the unknown territory he thought he had discovered and had even planted a flag.
“I’ll ask you again. Why do I have to go through the trouble of telling Hector the secret of the Merchant War?”
