SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar
Chapter Summary
It seemed to spread across the entire world—like an expanse of glorious light. The area of effect was estimated to be at least three times bigger than what happened in the Northern Continent, and I also tried to contain the blast so it would target the Nether and only him. We all raised our heads to the sky, and sure enough, the lights were slowly evaporating, and a deep, dark purple cloud began to manifest in the air.
The sky above was painted marvelously in a multitude of colors.
It seemed to spread across the entire world—like an expanse of glorious light.
With such shimmering lights, and the beauty of destruction evident to our eyes, we witnessed the elaborate destruction I caused.
The area of effect was estimated to be at least three times bigger than what happened in the Northern Continent, and I also tried to contain the blast so it would target the Nether and only him.
Still, the area of effect, as expected, expanded far and wide—the target being at the center of it.
'That's why… or at least, one of the reasons why I took it far into the sky.
'The shockwaves greeted us as they accompanied the loud explosion, fortunately, we were safe within my reinforced barrier.
"W-wow… such destruction.
" Kazen whispered beside me.
She gave me a nervous look, as well as that of surprise.
She probably couldn't believe that someone like me could be capable of so much power.
'This is the result of stocking up for a long time…' I thought ti myself.
"You really did it, Lewis!
I'm sorry I doubted you.
You really…" Karlia was astounded.
She looked at me with such pride that I also felt good about it, and myself.
However, I was not blind to the reality of the situation.
"It's not over yet.
" My gaze went far beyond the direction of my allies, and focused on a single location.
"What do you mean by that?
" Jane spoke up behind me.
My allies were finally conscious, and I had seen just how tired and disturbed they were.
Their faces were slowly brimming with hope, but my statement must have made their relief cease.
"Look at Ciel.
She's just floating there, unconcerned.
Based on everything that has happened so far, you'd think she would be upset—or at least concerned—about what just happened.
"Instead, she was giving her usual smile.
"She's not concerned at all.
It's not over.
Not by a long shot!
" I grunted.
We all raised our heads to the sky, and sure enough, the lights were slowly evaporating, and a deep, dark purple cloud began to manifest in the air.
Flashes of purple lightning occupied the expanse above our heads, and a single entity stood there.
This being's monstrous majesty could not be ignored even if one tried.
'It's the Nether and… it's unscathed.
'I had hoped that the blast would be enough to injure him, at the very least.
It contained so much energy, after all.
Yet… he seemed absolutely fine.
'Now I see why Ciel couldn't have been bothered.
All of that was just child's play, eh?
'"Well, this is a pleasant surprise.
I certainly felt that one…" The Nether's voice thundered.
He remained above, most likely immersed in the grandeur of his dominance.
"Do you have more attacks like that?
If so, then perhaps you're not so weak, after all.
" The Nether slowly began to descend.
It felt like his power just increased, or perhaps he had been holding back his powers before now.
It was also possible that he still had a good amount of his powers that he had not yet revealed.
In essence, just like with the Martial Blade God—no, this was even worse—I couldn't detect how powerful this monster was.
Speaking of the Martial Blade God… he was still in deep meditation.
Since the fight started, he had yet to move from his location.
I would have gone after him if I had the chance, but my hands were full with the Nether.
It probably wasn't worth it anyway—though I couldn't help but wonder what he was up to.
'Still…'"If you have nothing left to offer, this should be the end for you.
"'...
I'm not done!
'In fact, this was only the beginning!
