Reincarnation of the Warrior Party Archmage

chapter 37



The entire leaderboard seemed to unfold in the air, but it stopped at 63rd place. The 62nd place is 21pt, and it was surprising that it was 0pt alone, but what was even more surprising was its name.

[63. Lillian Karin: 0pt.]

One of the golden generation of the first year and the late exponent of Rivendell, she is… … I was sitting cross-legged on top of a precipice in district F (open field) with my eyes closed. all the way from the beginning.

“How did this happen, Senior Elin?”

“Are you not interested in grades?”

Even Elin, who said that, was not interested in Lillian. Because her eyes were always focused only on the window through which Rain was reflected.

[13th place, Lane Ludwig: 198pt.]

Ranked 13th just by collecting treasures… … Monster hunting points are only 2 points. Elin’s eyebrows narrowed.

‘What the hell are you thinking?’

At that point, the disappointment of the other cadets was already reaching its peak. However, the professors thought differently.

“Your stamina is pretty good.”

“There is that, but it seems like you’ve ridden the mountain often, right? Interesting. It’s not a skill I’ve ridden once or twice. When?”

“But at this pace, I would only be chasing after the lead group. Maybe we need to change our strategy.”

At that time, a branch that crossed the air in a sharp trajectory like a comet pierced the monster’s head.

[Hunting monsters: Acquire 1 pt.]

Retrieving the tree branch while trampling on its hideous body, Lane looked up at the leaden sky for a moment.

‘The rain is getting stronger.’

The sound of footsteps echoes eerily in the mountains.

It’s just nice weather.

For monsters with sensitive hearing to prey on them, and even for one-on-one battles using their habits.

‘Ah, that guy can’t be… … ?’

Marhena, who was sitting alone in a chair with her arms crossed and watching the whole situation, whistled.

‘Did you just endure it until now? It’s about to begin… … .’

However, it wasn’t just Rain who was waiting for ‘that moment’.

A precipitous cliff in District F.

Lillian, who was sitting quietly cross-legged, a dozen wisps of wisps flew from all over the mountain and circled around her face like fireflies.

‘found. All the guys in the top 10.’

Lillian’s eyes slowly opened in the rain, terrifyingly black.

‘Shall we start soon.’

The moment Lillian muttered that and stood up, a string of characters along with a map were printed out of the magic tools worn by the test takers on their wrists.

[volcanic eruption]

– Evacuate the area.

The Battle Royale Trial was designed in such a way that it was impossible to simply hide and survive. Because the safe zone continues to narrow due to volcanic eruptions.

It is said that it is a structure that has no choice but to survive by continuing to compete in an increasingly cramped area.

The volcanic eruption that started in B·C, the mountain peak earth, soon swallowed up all but one earth.

“As expected, the cadets in the 1st and 2nd ranks of the 2nd rank group spurt as if they were waiting for this situation.”

“no… … Wait a minute. Another one hits and comes out.”

Along with the perplexed voice of a professor, a large screen of a cadet whose scores suddenly started to run out of control was displayed.

“The score is going up at an absurd rate?!”

The moment the picture was printed on the screen, Elin Ludwig, who was holding his breath and concentrating, shuddered with a thrill that seemed to stop his heart.

“I will set it aside, oh, set it aside! beat! After the 12th, 10th and 9th places… … Up to 8th place at once?!”

lane.

It was Lane Ludwig.

District C, hit by a volcanic eruption, is left alone while everyone suddenly moves to another point… … It was like fighting against dozens of monsters.

“Look at that cheeky Noom?”

Head Professor Marhena’s eyes slowly widened in admiration.

“What happened?”

Logan asked Christa with wide eyes, as if they were close friends. Christa was slightly wary of him before answering.

“I’m luring monsters by shaking the ground.”

“A demon? To where you are?”

“answer.”

“Isn’t it completely stoned?”

He explained in a calm tone, but Christa’s eyes also inadvertently narrowed sharply.

That would also be the case, because the magic square spread out in Rain’s palm against the demonic beasts that surged like a tidal wave was a whopping three layers.

It was a three-star magic. That, too, was a Jorchen type, that is, one created by magic mental arithmetic.

‘You saved up your energy for this one shot? No, did you keep running around for this one room?’

When the vibrating magic that had been spread throughout District C summoned as many monsters as they wanted, the ring of light broke from Rain’s palm.

The shape of the magic square is a three-layered rectangle.

The runes engraved are Yul (律), Guan (貫), and Du (阧).

Du (阧): soaring,

Crown (貫): penetrating,

Yul(律): Endowment of character that binds.

In the next moment, the roots of the giant tree rose furiously from the ground, which wrinkled like waves.

The sight of those bloody roots piercing the heads and chests of the monsters rushing at Rain, scattering their viscera in the air, or coiling themselves around like snakes and crushing them into flesh was reflected in my clairvoyant eyes.

Because the score acquisition speed was so fast, the score settlement was not done consecutively, so it was made as a total score.

[Subjugation Point: +164 point.]

The professors looked at each other as if they were dumbfounded, then let out a blank laugh.

“High-speed calculation of 3-star magic——?!”

“You really have to have ridiculous skills to deal with that number of monsters.”

“Did Rain Ludwig have a Battle Mage license?”

“Is that the genius Gongja?”

Elin Ludwig shook her head and interjected as if she was making a fuss about something like this, but the corners of her mouth were about to ascend into the sky.

“I didn’t have to get that license. There is a saying, ‘Nangjungjichu’, so why should I boast about winning a license that will be revealed on my own?”

Lane Ludwig’s points are already 362pt. Not to mention Group B’s first place Gertrude, and Group A’s first place Christa was beaten by a 1pt difference.

‘I definitely scored.’

Lane thought as she looked up at the lava flowing from the peak. It would take approximately 3 minutes for the lava to reach this place.

‘This score will be enough, so let’s get into it soon.’

Caroline touched her chin as she watched Lane skilfully ride down the hillside.

‘At this pace, it’s probably not just Gertrude’s problem to defend her S grade.’

Leading with her… … hmm? Caroline, who was scanning the leaderboard, had to blink.

“Senior Kyle? Is this a bit strange?”

“What do you mean?”

“The names of the cadets who were running second and third have disappeared.”

“hahahaha, it can’t be. All right here… … uhm, uh… … ?”

Kyle also tilted his head momentarily. Because the names of the cadets who were originally ranked 2nd and 3rd have disappeared.

‘The gap must have been quite large?’

What I can’t understand more… … The 2nd and 3rd places are nowhere to be found. It wasn’t pushed to 4th or 5th place, it was nowhere in the top 10 or top 20.

It’s gone.

While I was distracted by Lane Ludwig, those names disappeared like ghosts.

“With my clairvoyant ability, I will try to find the area where the second and third cadets were. Three minutes ago.”

When the screen was displayed, no one could open their mouths. For an instant, everyone in the place just blinked in astonishment.

The first thing I heard was a terrible scream.

And what I saw… … It was the image of a second-rank cadet who struggled with the flames of murderous heat and turned into a lump of charcoal in an instant.

“… … !”

Then, like a swarm of bees, the flames rushed at the third-ranked cadet who was searching for treasure in the woods, and met the same fate with an eardrum-shattering scream.

It was in the dark with the pouring rain.

At that time, the lightning flashed terrifyingly, illuminating the face of the being that came close to the projectile.

Lillian Karin.

The point gained from killing a cadet is 1/2 of the points the cadet had. By hunting the 2nd and 3rd places, the girl’s eyes shone terrifyingly as she rose from the bottom to the 3rd place at once.

‘Now, three more? No, if we get 1st or 2nd place, one person would be enough.’

Even the professors seemed unable to continue talking for a moment.

‘The cadets who ran side by side in 2nd and 3rd places were so simple… … .’

Looking at the scene, Marhena tapped her socks and fell into thought.

‘He’s definitely a strong guy. He resembles his father and even has a tyrannical personality.’

At one time, the Magic League wanted such a talented person. As long as you have skills, everything is acceptable… … . But maybe now is the time to reconsider.

1st Place: Lane Ludwig, 362pt.

2nd Place: Gertrude Panton, 323pt.

3rd place: Lillian Karin, 312 pt.

Gertrude Panton, who confirmed the situation with her magic tool, also had to blink in embarrassment.

‘what?’

Lane and Lillian’s scores… … No, that’s a problem, but where did the names of the guys who followed me go?

A terrifying sensation, as if a sharp needle were piercing the muscles of the back.

to live.

The body initiates instinctive avoidance behavior. The power is concentrated at the tip of the toe, and the moment the ground is spurred, the body is pushed far away.

Qrrr!

In an instant, dazzling flames soared to burn the retina where Gertrude had been standing until just now, and flicked her tongue.

“… … ?!”

flame… … ? I straightened up, but there was no time to panic.

Eagles of flame descended overhead, crashing into the ground and exploding without a chance to escape.

Soon after, what was sent to the window of the clairvoyance was a soaring flame explosion so fierce that it could be seen even from other Earths.

“Gertrude!”

Lillian furrowed her brow when Christa hurriedly shouted, knowing that she couldn’t reach them.

‘There is no burning sensation.’

As she walked through the rain, the hem of her robe drenched and drooped, dragging on the floor.

‘Isn’t it as easy as the other guys?’

When Lillian took out the amulet from her bosom, the rosary hanging around her neck spread wide and circled around the caster.

The Rivendell School has made a name for itself as a Remediere type that has raised practicality to the limit by simplifying magic squares, mathematical formulas, and rune construction time by using amulets.

《Hwachungseon》.

As the magic square engraved on the amulet emitted light, one of the orbiting beads of the rosary turned into a blazing fireball.

“Ran.”

Then, as he suddenly turned around and threw the amulet, the fireball erupted into countless flying insects and rushed at the target.

At some point, Gertrude appeared from behind.

But Gertrude didn’t take it lightly either. As he struck the ground with both hands, the magic squares engraved on both palms—the Penton family inscribes their main magic into their palms like this—radiated light.

Chaaa… … !

Taking advantage of the gap in which the curtain of water surged up and wiped out all the flying butterflies, Gertrude lowered her stance and charged.

“Oh, oh oh!”

“It’s so close!”

“They’re both great?!”

While the cadets cheered, Christa bit her lip in concern.

‘You have to keep calm here. There is still quite a bit of test time left. If you put all your effort here… … .’

After breaking through the water curtain, Gertrude tore her legs up in the air and slammed Lillian’s head down.

it would have ended If only Lillian hadn’t backed away with a deft move.

But then Gertrude grinned. As light swirled from the magic square engraved on the soles of her feet, magic was activated, and the water veins that flowed under the ground surged up and attacked Lillian.

“Oh, are you seasoned?”

“yes. The Penton family seeks to harmonize water-type magic and martial arts. He is making use of his strengths.”

The amulet cannot be used with this. Concentrating mana on the tips of his toes, Gertrude was certain of victory.

The weakness of the Rivendell School is water.

It wasn’t because of the fire-type magic, but because the water-soaked talisman was easily torn, so it couldn’t show its full potential.

“I met the wrong person. Before you attack that arrogant sassy girl without even knowing the subject, this Gertrude will definitely break it!”

As Gertrude shouted, she caught Lillian, who had escaped from the torrent.

It doesn’t give you a chance to respond.

Immediately, he bent his arm behind his back and threw it down on the muddy ground.

“Now, if you don’t want to break a joint, say surrender!”

“… … It’s naive, really. If it had been me, I would have just killed him.”

“Is this because you really want to see someone sick?”

He slowly but surely pulled his bent arm back.

Wood deuk… … .

Even if you hear the sound of a bone breaking in a joint, you must be experiencing intense pain. But Lillian was aloof.

“The reason I use the talisman is not because the calculation speed is slow.”

“… … ?”

“Because I can’t control my strength.”

Lillian stuck out her tongue. Gertrude’s spine felt chilly at the moment of inexplicable anxiety.

stigma.

Was it made with fire? Isn’t it that the complex six circles are drawn in black on the tongue?

‘It’s dangerous, this is really dangerous.’

Gertrude let go of her arms, shuddering with primal fear, and immediately stepped back. The chilling sensation of death was squirming in his veins.

“Come out, wishful thinking.”

Then, the rosary beads spinning around Lillian sped up like crazy and merged… … It was formed into a gigantic transcendental creature with a dazzling flash.

A mane made of flame.

Scales glistening with sparks.

Whoosh, the tongue of flickering flames.

Gertrude felt her mind go white and took a step back.

It was the serpent of flame, the Imoogi, that overwhelmed the surroundings with a horrifying presence and revealed its primeval dignity.

The person who summoned the serpent gave an eerie order calmly with an emotionless voice.

“You can eat it.”
