048. Battle of Arbis (2)

Due to their nature, the undead did not die easily.

That’s why there were many cases that even cut off an arm or a leg.

For that reason, when dealing with undead, they usually cut their heads.

Or pressed down with strong firepower.

If it was melted with flame-type magic, no matter how undead it was, it would be useless.

Fire-!

A few streams of flame flew like a snake with a will.

A stream of sepia fire engulfed the zombie horde.

The entangled zombie melted into an unknown form.

And the flame engulfed the next opponent.

Sepia beckoned into the air like a conductor.

It was a graceful yet restrained movement.

The flame moved according to the hand gesture.

Sepia took a deep breath.

The lungs ached.

Absorbed magic power from the oxygen containing demonic energy.

The thicker the magic, the greater the amount to replace it with magic.

And it creates a flame to consume the opponent.

It was the strongest technique that could theoretically be used by the Lognes family, famous for being the enemy of Mine.

The melted opponents piled up at the entrance.

‘Ah, strong… .’

Admiration flowed naturally.

Tia took a deep breath.

There was a time when sepia was put in the 3rd place of people to watch out for.

However, Sepia’s magic was beyond imagination.

‘Certainly strong. Maybe even stronger than Tesha.’

Why is such a wizard young lady… .

He was never a person who would rank 16th among freshman candidates.

‘the problem is… . It’s not that the opponents are only undead.’

If there were only undead, it might be possible to organize them in sepia lines.

It was such overwhelming firepower.

Because ghouls, skeletons, and zombies all melted away.

And Sepia showed no signs of struggling.

‘How high is your mana management ability?’

There seemed to be no wasted power.

Even with a small amount of mana, he created stronger magic.

Tia had no idea how high that magic power could be.

Wedge liquid -!

At that moment, something flew from the entrance.

It was as fast as an arrow.

It was an attack aimed at Sepia.

Kang!

The ax fell with a sharp metal sound.

It was an obvious fact that if Anya didn’t step out and knock it out, Sepia would be exposed to the attack as it is.

For a moment, the sepia flame stopped.

In the meantime, the ghouls ran past the entrance.

It was easy for one person to guard the narrow entrance.

However, it was difficult to pursue enemies scattered in all directions one by one with magic.

Sepia hurriedly created a semicircular wall of fire on the ground.

“Who are you!”

Anya cried.

Only the clanking of armor was the answer.

The opponent who passed through the wall of fire was a black knight.

The opponent passed the wall without a trace.

A stream of fire hit the black knight.

However, the opponent cut the flames with a single swing of the halberd.

A lifeless stream of fire died down in the air.

The red demonic air slowly rose behind the knight.

As if it were a living being.

death knight.

Just walking in aroused a sense of intimidation and fear.

It seemed to freeze the heart of the viewer.

“Is magic useless?”

Sepia snorted.

Then, it was something that could be suppressed with stronger magic.

In an instant, the temperature around them dropped.

Sharp ice shot from Sepia’s fingertips.

The ice spear blade that flew leaving a long trail aimed at the armor of the black knight.

bang-!

It was an honest attack, not mixed with deceit.

And the black knight swung his halberd to block the attack.

However, as soon as the ice spear edge touched, an explosion occurred as if it had been waiting for it.

Hundreds of pieces of ice froze the surroundings.

I’m sorry- I…

The knight’s hideous red eyes shone.

Freezing magic that started with the legs.

The magic froze the opponent on the knees, waist, and upper body.

Giggigi―

As the metal froze, I heard a strange sound.

The opponent tried to take a step to resist somehow.

However, it was already frozen to the neck.

Gradually, the rate of freezing accelerated.

“What did you do with Ethan?”

Sepia asked the question she had been holding back for so long.

A moment of silence came.

“It was a question that didn’t even need to be asked. Ethan couldn’t have been killed by a guy like you.”

Soon, the magic froze the entire armor.

A bit of a gust of wind blew.

“Unfortunate… Are you?”

Instead of answering, Sepia grabbed her chest.

I poured out so much mana that I felt dizzy for a moment.

Because of freezing the opponent who was radiating demonic energy, the concentration of demonic energy around them was now lightened.

“Any… , I’ll ask you to take care of the rest.”

“Oh, yes! Just leave it to me!”

Now it was Anya’s turn.

As if blocking the entrance, the rising flames were also weakening.

But it was still threatening.

There were too many enemies.

At first glance, there were hundreds.

Anya blew off the head of the first ghoul that ran through the flames.

One after another, the heads of the ghouls exploded.

Bang bang.

Anya handled the opponent lightly.

Even facing dozens by himself, he didn’t lose a bit.

Then an ominous sound was heard.

damn… .

It was the sound of breaking ice.

The cracked ice splintered and splattered in all directions.

Enemies engulfed in cold slowly walked out.

And the opponent was radiating more powerful magic than before.

The red eyes shone even more fiercely.

“Ah oh… , well, what should I do?”

Anya scratched her cheek in embarrassment.

Not only that, but the undead army was coming.

Dealing with the undead, the knight didn’t seem to be able to stand still.

“Everyone evacuate to the castle!”

Tia exclaimed.

There was only one realistic hope left.

Waiting for Arthur and Tesha’s party to kill the necromancer.

Until then, they had no choice but to evacuate to the castle.

“Run… !”

I said that, but Tia knew it too.

It was difficult to hold out against them.

The situation itself was hopeless.

bang-! Quaang-! Kwaang-!

In an instant, a series of roars erupted from the entrance to the castle.

Flames were raging over the inner walls.

Then, a hot wind blew in from the entrance.

‘Fire… ? Maybe Professor Cassia… ?’

The sent crow arrived at the professor.

Maybe it was a possible story.

“Everyone, the reinforcements, the professor must have arrived!”

The professors at Nadia Academy were all the best in their field.

All of them were prestigious and had high authority.

And a professor would never have come alone.

A ray of light was visible in the dark abyss of despair.

‘It’s definitely worth defeating this undead army… . uh?’

However, only one person appeared at the entrance.

A swordsman with black hair.

A black blade that matches that black hair.

The blade was wrapped in a whirlwind of flame, and the swordsman’s whole body was constantly releasing blue magic. And behind him, a high-ranking spirit appeared.

“Ethan… ?”

All eyes were on the entrance.

Thanks to his attention, even the undead were turning their eyes to Edan.

“Oh, man, there are so many real zombie bastards!”

I couldn’t come out without cursing.

Edan swung his sword in succession.

Every time the sword attack continued, the undead were swept away by the flames.

Intense flames spread out following the sword strike.

And he killed dozens of undead at once.

Its appearance was reminiscent of a man-in-the-middle, one-man army.

‘ah… ! Ethan was alive… !’

Tia opened her eyes wide.

I couldn’t believe what was happening right now.

Ethan gritted his teeth and swung his sword.

A black blade was drawn from bottom to top.

At the same time, the flame burned space and enemies.

After completing his combat boots, Runtar followed Edan.

‘It’s strong. I’m already in sync with the spirits to that extent.’

Quagga each… ! Quagga Gagagak!

A whirlwind of fire spread from Edan’s sword strike.

It was a series of attacks that did not care about their own safety.

‘It’s dangerous… ! Edan, if you use a flame-type spirit like that… !’

Being an Elementalist was not safe from flames.

I suddenly remembered that I hadn’t told him how to use the spirits.

sigh-

The flames blazed and climbed the walls.

All the undead rushed towards Edan.

“Hey heck, let’s go! You bastards are already ruined!”

Ethan raised his sword with a spirit.

The fire that burned the corpse was moving to another corpse.

In an instant, all directions spread into a sea of fire.

‘Could it be that he burns himself to protect us?’

The corpses that were running were drowning in the sea of fire.

However, there were no undead that survived.

Thick clouds of smoke were rising into the sky.

“Undy! Dine! Neun! Put out that fire right now!”

It was not the time to be stunned.

Tia quickly summoned the water spirits.

The fire must be extinguished.

Tia tried to extinguish the flames with her magic.

For some reason, the black knight stopped attacking.

As if the current situation was interesting, he only stared at the entrance.

“Ethan… ! it’s okay?”

Tia eagerly shouted at the flames.

Sepia also used magic to extinguish the flames.

Did he try to burn all the undead from the start?

Immortalize death and become friends with them.

‘Is that the option you chose? I, I thought the guilt would lessen now-‘

I was relieved to think he was alive.

‘You did it twice to save me… .’

burned a body

was not afraid of death.

What a noble spirit of sacrifice.

Tia bit her lower lip to keep from crying.

that buck

Ethan was walking out of the black smoke.

With his back to the flames, Ethan’s cheeks and clothes were scorched by the smoke.

However, he did not suffer any burns.

“Sepia, Tia, Anya… .”

Ethan gasped for breath as if it was difficult.

However, he immediately corrected his posture.

“And Knight Rien.”

As if in response, the black knight made a loud noise.

“Stop bullying the kids. your opponent is me You damn bastard.”

Ethan straightened his dangling sword and gripped it.

I had to face the mighty enemy again.
