episode 500 stone statues being punished (3)
“this is...”
this is undoubtedly the sacred power unique to goddess gaia.
it’s the energy that has been together for several years, so even if it changes a little, you can tell.
even as the poison slowly spread through his body, ray was intent on examining the stone statue.
while looking around, he stared blankly at the stone statue of a young man.
‘the divine power is protecting the stone statue.’
the divine power was preventing the stone statue from being broken or damaged by the wind and waves of the years.
in terms of magic, it can be said that the stone statue has preservation magic.
it was an absurdly weak divine power, so i didn’t notice it when i was a young girl, but i was able to feel the divine power when i saw the young man.
this dungeon must have something to do with goddess gaia.
but why?
gaia is in the highest position here in the middle world, to the extent that believers even created the divine kingdom.
for what reason could such a goddess be involved in an ugly dungeon?
thinking deeply, ray shook his head.
‘i don’t know anything right now.’
at this point, it’s just thinking ahead.
i didn’t know what the goddess was doing behind the scenes, but first of all, i had to solve the immediate problem.
ray stopped searching for the stone statue and returned to his temporary shelter.
a stone statue spewing poison.
and the stone chamber where you can feel the divine power of goddess gaia.
i felt strange when i saw the strangely lively stone statues, but the poison was so strong that it was impossible to get close to them.
“now is the time for drain magic to shine, but...”
so far, the mana necessary for casting was still a little lacking.
when a high-circle wizard manifests magic, he unconsciously absorbs some of the mana in the air and uses it.
otherwise, while using magic, the mana in the body could drain all at once and cause exhaustion.
ray also tried to create drain magic based on that method, but it was impossible because the flow of mana flowing in the atmosphere was disrupted by the dungeon.
there was one thing that bothered me.
mana is life.
in other words, absorbing a creature’s mana is the same as absorbing life.
maybe this action he is doing is magic against his will to save life.
it is magic that will do more to take lives than to save them.
still, is it really okay to touch this magic?
i suddenly had such a thought.
“in the current situation, it may sound like a full stomach, but.”
because of the thoughts running through my head, i can’t properly grasp magic.
i went outside to get some wind.
in the still clogged dungeon corridor, nothing that could be called wind blows.
all that is there is the stifling smell of rotting corpses and poison.
“cure. clean.”
as i spread mana with the starter, the air became slightly refreshing.
ray looked around.
the goblins caught my eye, distributing food without greed and exchanging kindness with each other.
there were also those who practiced swords, and there were even knights and goblins whose physiques grew even though they only gave them status.
i’ve lived here for almost a year, but the dungeon is still a jumble of things i don’t know.
why do monsters that are so strong that they cannot be compared to those outside exist here?
what is the identity of the stone statues?
what does this dungeon really mean?
as of now, i really don’t know anything.
‘i’m sure i’m not the only one trapped here.’
the ground was turned upside down and an endless dungeon was created.
most of the people living around the soleil mountains were probably trapped.
and when you see that you haven’t come across a single person on your way down this far.
although ray had already surpassed her in terms of creating magic circles, aira was still several steps ahead of her in terms of magic knowledge.
if i had been outside, i would have received her help, but unfortunately, this was a dungeon.
i had no choice but to solve it on my own somehow.
ray, thinking of aira’s face, thought of something.
word spirit.
what if we mix spirit and magic?
words expressed by will and magic established by theory.
if the two strengths are properly utilized in the current lacking part, wouldn’t the magic be successfully manifested?
jump-!
ray got up from his seat.
“that’s it!”
insufficient mana can be compensated with a small amount of spirit.
in addition, the complex part of the magic formula could be corrected, albeit partially, if the language was added.
in that case, the chant will generally be shorter and the mana consumed will be less.
he removed the magic formulas and complex magic formulas that required a lot of mana among the parts written on the parchment in order to test them right away.
instead, it fills the vacancy by using the commandments.
having memorized all the spells, he raised his hand.
he raised his mana again while placing his palm on parchment, which is relatively easy for mana to pass through.
the sense of absorbing mana.
wishing for it.
will.
mana.
if something is missing, the magic won’t be manifested.
in the middle of inadvertently using magic, aira’s smiling face came to mind.
her lips softened at the kindness of helping herself, who was by her side and not by her side.
“drain.”
as i uttered the start word, the parchment gradually became blurry.
mana wraps the thin parchment and disappears as it is.
only the remnants of mana that had been floating in the air were transmitted to him intact through the palms of his hands.
the mana he felt in his palm was somehow warm.
although it ended in a short moment, the remaining warmth brought a lingering effect.
he looked down at his hands with trembling eyes.
“...completed.”
i couldn’t believe it even though i did it myself.
there was nothing in the hand that had been holding the parchment until now.
are you saying you were successful?
this crazy magic?
ray spread his hand in the air as a test.
“drain.”
whoa-!
as if in response, mana cried softly and quickly absorbed the miasma spread in the air.
woo-woo-!
absorbed too quickly.
gyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy-!
somehow the sound has changed.
embarrassed, ray screamed out loud.
“aagh! stop you bastard!”
mana absorbed not only the miasma around him, but also the musty smell and unpleasant dust.
even if the performance is good, it is too good.
ray urgently stopped supplying mana.
fortunately, it absorbed only what it wanted to absorb like a ghost, perhaps thanks to the effect of the spirit of speech, but if this was a jin built only in a general magic way, it would have melted everything around it and absorbed it as mana as long as mana supported it. will be.
thinking about it sent chills down my spine.
he created the strongest and worst magic ever.
