Chapter 410: I’m Glad. Light Kiyoung has descended (1)

This was a malevolent trap.

I didn’t know how much he had been trying to dominate Castle Rock, but I had no choice but to come out swearing.

Of course, it was difficult for the enemy to see that as an optimal situation. It was obvious that they were in a hurry, too.

He probably wanted to drop the magic he prepared after pushing his troops in as much as possible. However, it was clear that the operation had been twisted due to that appeared out of nowhere.

If I were Jin Qing, I would have activated that magic after reducing the enemy wizards’ stamina a little more.

However, the current timing couldn’t be considered as regrettable, either.

Enemy forces still surrounded the main unit, and it was undeniable that that magic would inflict enormous damage to our side.

If it really fell, then the war would be over. I wasn’t the only one who knew about such an obvious fact.

A loud voice could be heard from below. After a few moments had passed, I began to feel great magic power trembling from within.

I was certain that it’s caused by someone forming a defensive magic circle that could respond to the enemy’s magic. However, it wasn’t certain whether the improvised defense magic would be able to stop the meteorite.

I was able to realize why the enemy allowed themselves to be stuck at Castle Rock.

‘Were they preparing that all this time?’

I wasn’t sure. However, the odds were high. It didn’t just end with Castle Rock as bait.

Considering that it took time and manpower to unleash that kind of magic, I thought they could have been preparing since the beginning of the war, or maybe even after I had sent the message.

Perhaps there was a device on the command side that could materialize and maintain that magic.

It was more systematic than the magic that fell at Laios, assuming that the range was limited to prevent their allies from being damage. It even seemed to have accurate coordinates and even calculations of possible errors.

I knew that there were many talented wizards in the Republic, but I thought the one who gave them help to create such powerful magic…

‘The Magic Kingdom.’

That much was obvious.

Perhaps that was both a message and their means of vengeance.

It could be interpreted as a blow of tenacity as part of Jin Qing trash’s will to return what happened in Laios. I looked up at the sky with my Mind’s Eyes.

[Semi-mythic grade magic]

[Meteor]

The level of the manifested magic was a whopping semi-mythic grade.

‘Can I stop it?’

I had the Bomb of Light potion, but no matter how I looked at it, it was unlikely that I could stop it with one shot.

After peeling off the magic power as much as possible, we could burst free at it. Maybe we’d have a chance.

Of course, that didn’t mean we’d succeed, but…

-That…

“First, get as close as possible.”

Still, I had no choice but to try.

If that fell, I would lose everything I had ever achieved and everything I’d get in the future.

While Dialugia hesitated for a moment, a huge defensive magic circle began to cover our allies.

Finally.

Baaaaaaannnngggg!

A huge crashing sound started to reverberate into my ears.

The defense magic created by the main unit was blocking the meteorite.

I became hopeful for a second, but all it did was slow that thing down. It looked somewhat unnatural to watch it continue falling, gathering clouds and air in the sky.

Shortly afterward, a shattering sound exploded as the huge shield got completely smashed.

“Breath! Breath!”

-I don’t know if it’ll work.

“But it would be better to try it first.”

I thought I had to try everything at that point.

I could see a huge light accumulating in Dialugia’s mouth, taking a deep breath as per command. The draconic figure shot out her Breath towards the meteorite, exerting so much force that my body was pushed back even though I was tightly holding onto her. It was a mythical scene, but it wasn’t as pleasing when it was happening right before my eyes.

“Shit. It’s still not enough…”

-I think it’s better to avoid it. The closer I get, the higher the chance that I’ll get swept away.

“No. Let’s go up. I can stop it.”

-Are you serious?

“I’m not sure if it’ll work, but I’ve got a plan.”

-…

“Just go up. Gosh! You have no faith! No faith.”

-Because you’re not very trustworthy. I didn’t have faith from the beginning. And I don’t think there will be any in the future.

Contrary to her words, Dialugia continued to approach the meteorite.

The allies cast defensive magic once again, causing the meteorite to hit the translucent membrane in return.

I had hopes for the spell, but the second barrier broke down faster than the first. Of course, it wasn’t meaningless to continue to cut down the magic power built into the magic itself, but no matter what I thought, it wasn’t enough to block it.

As I looked at my right arm momentarily, I gazed at the small shield Kim Hyunsung gifted to me.

[Incomplete Shield of Aegis (Legendary)]

[A shield that the God of Heaven gave to the Goddess of War. Unlike before, it had been split into several pieces. The shield did not lose its power despite being torn apart, perhaps thanks to the magic power contained in it. It dramatically increased basic magic resistance and allowed the user to summon parts of the Aegis Shield for a limited period of time in exchange for a huge amount of magic power. Summoned Aegis Shield unconditionally prevented any form of life-threatening attacks.]

‘Would this work against that?’

Part of its details was that it could prevent lethal attacks unconditionally, but that was likely to only react to things below the legendary grade.

It was out of standard in the first place since it’s semi-mythic. When I thought about the meteorite, I wondered if that little shield could block such great magic.

‘I still have to try.’

“Breath. Once again.”

-This is the last time.

“It doesn’t matter. First, stop that thing. Since it’s the last time you’re shooting it, use all the magic power you have.”

-I was going to do that even if you didn’t say it.

She blasted another Breath of the Dragon out again.

Another defense magic circle had been created as well.

It was unknown exactly what sound came from the bottom, but it’s probably the ally wizards screaming.

Perhaps they were vomiting blood, like Jung Hayan at Laios.

It would be the same to the enemy who manifested such magic, but after that, both wizards would be unable to use magic for the time being.

‘They’re probably at their limits now.’

I couldn’t afford to look around the battlefield, but it was already obvious, even if I couldn’t see them.

-Is it really going to be okay? Really? What can you do?

“Aegis!”

Leaving the anxious Dialugia behind, I immediately shouted the activation word after the third defensive magic was smashed.

As light emanated from the small shield, a huge barrier began to form in front of me.

The effect looked gorgeous, but I didn’t know how much it could endure. The shield continued to be maintained above Dialugia’s head, but it didn’t take long for it to crack and shatter.

“Aegis! Aegis! Aegis!”

‘Unconditionally blocks a fatal attack, my ass!’

If I paid for it, I would have asked for a refund unconditionally.

I already expended a lot of magic power.

-I don’t think it can take anymore…

“Okay, so go back! Go back! Go back! Quickly now!”

Craaash! Craaaack!

Whenever the barrier broke, my body felt like it was burning in the heat.

I was probably the only one who had witnessed the huge meteorite falling right in front of me.

I worried about whether or not I would die like that.

At the same time, a fourth shield blocked the path of the meteorite. It was stopped for a moment, but it continued getting closer to the ground soon after.

‘Would it be better to reduce its core a little more?’

I thought it would be better to reduce the intrinsic magic power a little more, but there was no way I could do that. All I could do was throw two potions towards it.

“This disgusting bastard! Taste the power of light, motherfucker!”

It would be nice if that could block it, but it was unclear whether that would happen. However…

Whoooosh!

Along with the sound of a huge light flashing, the surroundings were illuminated.

A blinding light.

The huge light began to devour some chunks of the falling meteorite.

‘Right. That’s it! Fuck! That’s it! Keep it coming! Fuck! Let’s go! Bastard!’

Whooooooosh!

The sight of some parts of the meteorite being completely engulfed by streaks of light seemed to suggest that the potion I had was working.

What it touched gradually became light with a resounding roar. I wanted to get up and dance, but it felt difficult to move my body properly.

Still, I had to cheer for the fact that my plan worked. It was then that the falling meteorite showed an unusual reaction.

“Uh?”

The meteorite was split in half.

Baaaaaaaannnnnggggg!

One was completely swept away by the light, while the other remained intact. The other half continued to fall toward the ally troops.

“Dialugia! Breath! Breath! Breath!! Breath!!”

-I-I can’t… more importantly, the balance! I’m falling! I’m falling!

“Damn! Damn!!”

When my face momentarily crumpled, I witnessed the half that fell off was cut neatly once again.

It became obvious as to who did it.

I could tell without having to look at it. There was no one else who could cut that.

‘Hyunsung! Fuck! I believed in you!’

Of course, I wasn’t in a situation where I could see that right now.

After the Bomb of Light potion completely swallowed the meteorite, Dialugia turned to face the ground at the impact of the explosion. I held onto her horn as tightly as possible, but it felt like I was going to bounce right off.

“Damn!!”

-Hold on tight…

Baaanngg!!

“Cough! Cough! Cough! Dialugia! Dialugia, are you okay?”

-I can… endure it. And you…

“I’m fine too.”

‘What happened to the meteorite?’

Strangely, our vicinity had gone quiet. Rather, the entire battlefield became quiet.

I saw the troops looking at Dialugia and me as if they couldn’t believe it.

Perhaps that silence was the aftershock of witnessing such an incredible scene.

Of course, it was.

Even I still couldn’t believe I just stopped it.

At Laios, the scene was made up, but I succeeded in preventing something similar. The powder of light falling from the sky enveloped the entire army.

If I were a devout believer, I would’ve knelt and shouted Hallelujah on the spot.

“The Second Coming of Benignore… Benignore’s Second Coming…”

“It is the Second Coming of Goddess Benignore!”

‘This is a nice atmosphere.’

I didn’t even have that effect in mind, but the reaction was much better than I thought.

‘It deserves to have a good effect.’

The meteorite powder falling from the sky created the perfect glowing blanket. It was truly befitting to call it the Curtain of Light.

The image of a man riding a dragon was in its middle. In my eyes, it was perfect.

Thanks to the use of excessive magic power, my legs were trembling, but I instinctively thought I had to say something.

I applied the voice amplification magic to my words as I spoke.

-Please! Stop fighting, dear Republics!

Adrenaline coursed through my veins.

-Throw away your weapons!

As expected, I enjoyed talking more than I enjoyed standing on a battlefield.
