I Became a Flashing Genius at the Magic Academy [158-362][English Translation]

Episode 220 Chapter 46: Old Story(16)

Old Story(16)

The ending was already known.

The only thing I didn't know was the process.

The "process" I witnessed firsthand was truly horrifying and gruesome.

Estimated Risk Level: 9

It is classified as a "catastrophe" level by the public and requires the immediate deployment of the national magic warrior unit upon its appearance.

"...I couldn't keep my promise again."

At this moment, it was being defeated by a single mage, preparing for its final breath.

No, to be precise... it is no longer a mage but a black mage.

The whole world turned white. The pride of the Morph Duchy, the Morph Forest, was completely burned and erased, replaced by towering icy mountains.

The iceberg growing over the white flames was highly unnatural, but it could also be said to be a beautiful sight.

In the midst of it, a giant white fox demon lay fallen.

-Why did you stand in my way? Will you also lie and say it was for the world?

The White Fox Hwa-Ryeong slowly opened its eyes and asked Isaac Morph. His skin was a pale blue, his long hair was snowy white, and most notably, the ice wings sprouting from his back made one question whether he should still be called Isaac Morph the Grand Duke. Yet, his personality remained Isaac Morph.

Therefore, he replied this way.

"...For my daughter."

He tightly closed his eyes.

Each word was difficult to utter. Some desire kept creeping into his mind.

A desire to freeze everything in this world.

He clutched his chest and curled up. Facing the White Fox Hwa-Ryeong left Isaac in an abnormal state as well. One of his wings made of ice was completely torn, and the white flames clinging to his body had almost evaporated his dark energy.

However, dark energy recovers faster than regular blue mana. Moreover, when dark energy is depleted like this, it instinctively tries to absorb the surrounding mana by unleashing "desire."

'It's dangerous.'

Baek Yu-Seol judged that Isaac Morph must be eliminated here.

How?

No matter how weakened Isaac Morph was, it was impossible to face such a monstrous being alone.

But the entire magic knight squad was incapacitated. Even Hong Si-Hwa Adolevit was unconscious and collapsed.

'No, even if I leave it as it is... Isaac Morph the Grand Duke will die anyway.'

There is no need to struggle.

When a dark energy as powerful as 9 Risk emerges, an emergency alarm will immediately be sent to all nearby magic towers, and magic warriors will be dispatched.

The magic warrior unit will be fully prepared to deal with the powerful dark mage, and Isaac Morph, unable to recover his strength, will be killed by them.

At most, an hour?

No.

They will arrive within 30 minutes.

'I have nothing more to do.'

I have witnessed the truth here, and that is enough.

It's time to go back.
