Rebirth of the 8th-Circle Mage

Chapter 78: The Second Time For Sure (4)

“What the hell…?”

Everyone was surprised when Salmora disappeared—who could believe that he would disappear so easily with a single clap? Kale looked the most surprised.

‘I-it can’t be. Was that Forced Transfer…?’

Forced Transfer was one of the more advanced movement spells, forcibly moving someone to a designated location. Forced Transfer was considered one of the most difficult spells to learn at the mobile academy because movement spells required exact coordinates and the person or object to be transferred to be stabilized. It was extremely difficult and complicated to forcibly move someone or something.

However, the genius mage Kale had seen numerous runes appear and disappear around Salmora when Henry clapped. He took a step back and quietly called out to his disciples. “Be careful! That guy isn't ordinary.”

“What do you mean he’s not ordinary? Are you saying he’s a wizard?”

“Yes, but I’ve never seen him at the Magical Spire… Who could he be?”

The corners of Henry’s lips rose when he saw Kale growing cautious, unlike the bewildered knights. ‘I thought that there were only idiots here, but it seems that he brought one useful guy.’

Henry recognized Kale since he’d once been part of the Magical Spire. Lightning Kale had shown an outstanding ability to learn among mages of the same level, but he had destroyed objects of the Magical Spire several times because of his destructive tendencies. ‘It seems that he’s the only one that noticed the Forced Transfer. The others next to him must be his disciples.’

The 3rd Circle wizards were second-class wizards, while the 4th Circle wizards were first-class wizards. Mages counted many first-class wizards among their disciples, and Henry assumed that the others would not only be first-class wizards, but as Kale’s disciples, they had to have majored in the wind properties of Pure Sciences. It was very likely that they also knew how to use lightning, just like their master.

‘Most wizards that major in lighting also have destructive tendencies like Kale.’

Rumble, boom!

Most wizards who chose wind properties within Pure Sciences loved that particular powerful and destructive sound. It was why most of them specialized in lightning. The three disciples were exactly like that. However, Henry didn’t seem even a bit worried. Instead, he was thrilled because he was also experienced in lightning. ‘This will be an interesting fight. I haven't had anything like that in a while.’

After understanding the wizards’ abilities, Henry scanned the knights and recognized one face.

‘Pip? So, Salmora brought his top disciple.’

Henry had a good memory and he remembered the faces of the people of the imperial palace, including Pip’s. ‘That means I should watch out for Kale and Pip.’

Now that Henry had Forced Transferred Salmora, he assessed the levels and skills of the people he had to face. Henry unsheathed his sword and said, “What are you waiting for? Aren’t you going to fight?”

At Henry’s provocation, his opponents forgot the anxiety that had come with their leader’s disappearance. Pip took charge of the unit and pulled out his sword. “Our leader is still alive. We must trust him and focus on our duties. Does everyone understand?”

“Yes!”

They weren’t just random mercenaries. They were the pride of the empire and the elites of the elites. They had been through all kinds of experiences and fought hundreds of battles. At Pip’s order, the soldiers’ anxiety quickly disappeared, and a fighting spirit began to form around them.

Pip shouted, “Attack!”

“Ahhh!”

Henry’s fight began. contemporary romance

Flash!

As the pressure of the atmosphere exploded, Salmora appeared in another location in an instant. He swung his sword to block the spell, but it had no effect at all. However, at that moment, a big sword aimed at Salmora’s blind spot shot at him like an arrow.

Clank!

The sword had been thrown at him deliberately to get his attention, so Salmora smacked it out of his way and turned to see where it had come from. He saw a young, handsome man that he did not recognize.

“It’s been a long time, Salmora.”

“Who are you? Reveal your identity!”

“Hehe, this is fun.”

“What?”

“You sure talk a lot. If you’re here to find your subordinates' bodies, you should start swinging your sword. What the hell are you waiting for?”

The handsome man spoke as if he knew Salmora. Salmora was aggravated, but he also felt that there was something slightly familiar about the man. ‘He knows me? I’ve never seen him before.’

No matter how many times he dredged his memory, he couldn’t imagine who the handsome man could be.

Von laughed and said, “It seems that you’re confused. However, if you beat me, I’ll reveal my identity.”

“That… I’ll soon make you regret what you just said.”

Von stopped smiling and his long-held anger began to reveal itself. The tenth sword, Salmora.

The Imperial Ten Swords were pro-Central Aristocrats. They were not only the executioners of the State Contributors, they were also their hunters. Salmora was the most eager out of the Imperial Ten Swords because he wanted Aubert to like him. In other words, he was one of the many that deserved to die.

Von drew his sword and held it in his right hand, releasing an insane amount of murderous aura from his heart.

Swoosh.

A gentle wind seemed to blow around Von, and Salmora felt a chill run down his spine and goosebumps rise on his skin. ‘Damn! What kind of murderous aura is this…!’

It was an incredible aura that was beyond his own.

‘Who is he? There’s no way I could forget anyone who can release such a great amount of murderous aura.’

The man standing in front of him was younger but his murderous aura was greater than his. However, he was not afraid, nor did he think that he would lose. He would get rid of anyone in his way. Salmora raised his right foot and stomped hard on the ground to suppress his opponent’s overwhelming spirit.

Thud!

Cracks appeared on the ground. A blue aura appeared on the tip of Salmora’s toe and spread to the rest of his body.

Whoosh!

The tenth sword of the Imperial Ten Swords. A title given to the tenth-strongest swordsman in the empire. Salmora’s position in the empire was extremely high.

The aura that covered his entire body like a flame soon grew bigger, as if it were about to explode. When it died down, it turned into smooth, full-plate armor that covered Salmora’s entire body.

He began to load his aura on his sword. However, unlike the previous aura that had died down eventually, this one continuously bloomed like a blazing fire.

‘I haven’t seen that in a while.’

The flame formed the shape of a snake, and as it moved continuously around the sword, it looked like it was writhing around the blade.

“What a showoff, when he’s just little more than a worm….”

Zap.

Von began to put aura onto his own sword. The aura began to grow longer and longer, until his sword looked like a spear. Von stopped his aura. He was ready.

“Bring it on.”

The corners of Von’s lips rose and he waved his sword as if he were beckoning Salmora to attack him. His impudence seemed to infuriate the blue serpent.

“I’ll destroy the entire Shonan family, starting with you.”

Since he didn’t know Von’s identity, Salmora could only direct his anger at Eisen. Salmora pushed off the ground and ran forward, swinging his sword.

Shring!

A sharp swing fell, but the sword didn’t touch anything.

“I’m here.” Von’s voice was coming from somewhere above. He’d jumped into the air and was looking down at Salmora from the sky, his eyes like those of a hawk hunting a serpent.

Von’s sword came down at Salmora’s head.

Clash!

The two swords clashed violently with a loud blast, as though the hawk were trying to rip its prey apart and the snake was trying to defend itself. Von could feel Salmora’s power. It had been a long time since he’d experienced it. However, Von couldn’t help smiling. ‘You’ve gotten rusty!’

Von put more weight onto his blade and pushed down Salmora’s sword.

There was a violent clash between the two auras, but the struggle did not last long. Von used the strength of his forearms to launch himself from Salmora's sword and jumped into the air.

Whoosh!

He moved acrobatically, using his incredible strength to reach a height that no one else could attain, as though he were a hawk soaring into the air. Von was so powerful that anything he did seemed much more accomplished and unbelievable than if anyone else did it.

Von made eye contact with the serpent. “I’ll show you what happens to knights that neglect their training!” Von raised his sword above his head.

The sun had already set and the sky over Gowen Mountain was dark.

Von began to rapidly inject his aura that he was holding back into the raised sword.

Zappp!

The sword continued to grow infinitely, as though it were Son Goku’s magic staff. The blue aura continued to lengthen, eventually creating a long and beautiful ridge that split the night sky over Gowen Mountain in two.

Von fell to the ground with the sword raised above his head, he slashed towards the ground diagonally. The blue horizon trembled as though a laser were passing and fell. Salmora saw everything clearly.

“Th-this technique is…!”

It was the one and only technique that one else dared to imitate. It created the illusion of the Milky Way. Everyone who witnessed the technique said, “The falling Milky Way…!”

There was no time to avoid it, but Salmora suddenly remembered that the only person who could do the technique was the swordsman Von.

Flash!

The blue Milky Way fell on Gowen Mountain.
