A Genius Boy Who Was Exiled From His Family Home for “Not Being Able To Use Magic” Becomes a Witch’s Apprentice and Masters All Magic in the Right Way. This Is How You Use Your Magic, You Know?

Chapter 116.2. The Results Of Diligence

The monsters, noticing Hermes about to attack from above, all turned their eyes toward him at once.

──If possible, he wanted to strike by surprise, but of course, things never go that easily.

Assessing the situation, Hermes shifted his thoughts and looked down at the scene below.

…As expected, they managed to hold on. However, the strength of the monsters far exceeded

not only the students’ expectations but also Hermes’. The frontline was on the verge of collapse.

Especially the group of monsters Albert and the others were facing now.

Each one possessed the strength of a labyrinth ruler; regular Bloodline Magic wouldn’t even make a dent.

Realizing this… Hermes finally turned his gaze to his master.

His eyes met Katia’s as she looked up at him. Her eyes were slightly teary, and while her gaze held a bit of reproach for Hermes being late to the fight, she still understood what he intended. She nodded.

In other words──her permission was given: ‘Go all out’.

“Understood.”

That’s a relief. There’s no time for holding back against these monsters.

With her permission granted, he would now show his true strength.

He surveyed the battlefield below once more. If there was time, he’d take them down one by one,

but given the imminent collapse, there wasn’t.

Then, he’ll wipe them all out in one go.

Making his decision in an instant, he deactivated [Hraesvelgr].

As he began free-falling, he chanted and raised his right hand.

“Spell Reenactment──[Mistle Teinn].”

First, he activated the Bloodline Magic he was most familiar with.

And then…

“…Spell Combination──[Ahura Mazda].”

Simultaneously, with his left hand.

Activating the second spell he had been chanting… more like ‘mixing’ them, he combined the Bloodline Magic with another Bloodline Magic’s structure. Removing any unnecessary parts, he combined only the essential elements, and any resulting flaws were corrected by adding new components, shaping the magic.

The result: the magic bullets deployed behind him──erupted into flames.

It wasn’t merely fire attributed; the heat was far more intense, fierce, and violent, each bullet blazing like a miniature sun.

Then, Hermes swung his right hand down.

The infernal magic bullets shot toward the monsters all at once.

“────!!”

The results were devastating.

The remaining small monsters were annihilated without resistance,

and even the large monsters that troubled Albert and the others were either incinerated

or blown away by the explosions. This was far beyond the scope of mere Bloodline Magic.

And of course, the students fighting on the frontline were unharmed, thanks to perfect control.

That was possible. No──he had trained to ensure that would be possible.

Since transferring to the academy, Hermes has seen and learned countless Bloodline Magics.

He analyzed, deciphered, and made them his own.

Therefore, naturally. Someone who seeks to create magic himself──

──would never be satisfied with mere replication.

Thus, now. The time had come to showcase the results. The accumulation of his tireless efforts, which he continued even after transferring, never skipping a day, was now on display.

Now, he wouldn’t let his guard down. There were still powerful monsters lurking deeper ahead.

Besides… naturally, this was not the extent of his progress.

Having resolved this immediate crisis, his fighting spirit burned even brighter.

He descended to the ground, ready to reunite with his master and comrades.
