Chapter 322 Strongest Sage, Confuses


It"s a very simple magic that simply produces hands made of mana out of ground .


The strength of these hands depends on the user--and at the hands of a skilled user, the [Hand of Dragon Vein] boasts extremely dense form and high resistance against magic .


Due to its cast speed, and a wide range of applications, this is probably the most famous dragon vein magic in the past era .


I produced several more hands out of ground and restrained demon Giwald with them .


"You"re severely mistaken if you think mere [Hands of Dragon Vein] can overpower me--"


Demon Giwald cast magic and twisted its body in an attempt to escape the restraint .


However, it"s unable to break free from the [Hands of Dragon Vein] .


In the blink of an eye, [Hands of Dragon Vein] grabbed demon Giwald"s entire body, not even giving it any chance to cast magic .


[Hand of Dragon Vein] is the most basic of Dragon Vein magic .


As such, it ties closely to the user"s capability and experience .


Number, density, magic resistance, grip strength .


There"s a world of difference between a veteran magic combatant"s [Hand of Dragon Vein] to that of an intermediate mage .


Beginners can"t even invoke this magic .


In other words, this is the most effective magic that makes use of my past life"s experience .


I actually never used this magic much--but I"m glad I practiced on it a bit .


While I was thinking--demon Giwald had begun constructing an attack magic .


Looks like it"s trying to launch a counteroffensive .


The [Hand of Dragon Vein] I"m using is ill suited for attacking .

I need to cast attack magic in order to defeat demon Giwald .


This demon must be planning to launch that magic just right when I switch from [Hand of Dragon Vein] to attack magic .


That"s never happening though .


"Now then . . . How many seconds will it last . "


I poured my mana into Dragon Vein as I murmured .


Then the spot where demon Giwald is--flares up .


--[Flame of Dragon Vein]


An attack magic that was as popular as [Hand of Dragon Vein] in the past .


Its effect is extremely simple .


The magic converts Dragon Vein"s mana into flame to burn its target down .


"Madness! Simultaneous execution of dragon vein magic!? That"s suicidal!"



Demon Giwald sounded confused within the restraint .


Dragon Vein"s magic require a precise mana control .


Controlling two at once is difficult indeed .


But it"s not something experience can"t overcome .


Casting multiple magic that were far more difficult than these in parallel were pretty much everyday occurrences to the past me .


--It"s quite burdensome on the magic circuits though .


"I wonder about that . "


I gradually increase the firepower while monitoring the load on my magic circuits .


Seeing that, demon Giwald--smirked .


" . . . If you"re so eager to die, allow me the honor . "


Looks like demon Giwald has abandoned the idea of casting attack magic .


The demon halted its magic construction and began pouring its mana into Dragon Vein instead .


This is the exact opposite of what happened earlier .


I"m attacking through Dragon Vein, demon Giwald is trying to interfere with it .


The difference is demon Giwald only made use of Dragon Vein while I"m connected to Dragon Vein right now .


It"s easier to control Dragon Vein when you"re connected to it--but conversely, any lapse in control will instantly destroy your entire body"s magic circuits, resulting in death .


And this demon must be trying to make that a reality .


However, my magic control is steadfast .


Heck, [Flame of Dragon Vein]"s firepower is steadily increasing even .


And then . . .


" . . . I see, so this is how . "


I finally got the knack for Dragon Vein magic after not using it for so long .


This will work .


I push a large quant.i.ty of mana into Dragon Vein all at once .


A moment later--[Flame of Dragon Vein] completely covered demon Giwald .


"T-this can"t be . . . "


Demon Giwald muttered in confusion .


[Flame of Dragon Vein] is burning down the st.u.r.dy body of a high-cla.s.s demon .


Even the solid build of demon cannot stand against this much thermal power .


--A while later .


Demon Giwald has fallen, leaving only a carbonized body on the ground .


" . . . That lasted longer than expected . "


After confirming demon Giwald"s death, I was about to cut off my connection to Dragon Vein .


Right at that moment--I felt an enormous load on my magic circuits as I fell down on my knee with an intense pain .


"Guh . . . !?"


"Mathi-kun!?"


Ruli ran up to me when she saw me suddenly falling .


I a.n.a.lyzed the situation while repairing my magic circuits .


The overload was due to Dragon Vein .


Of course, I didn"t make such a basic mistake as losing control right before severing the connection .


There was a vast amount of mana pushed into me from the Dragon Vein .


I considered the possibility of demon Giwald using up the last of its mana--but such a little amount wouldn"t have been enough to make me lose control .


The cause must lie in another spot .


I probe inside the Dragon Vein with that in mind .


And--I found the culprit .


" . . . Why is that demon?"


I reflexively said that out loud .


The information I got from Dragon Vein was just that shocking .


--[Demon of Destruction] Zadokilgias .


Mana reaction from a demon who was feared as the worst even in the past era was mixed in Dragon Vein .


Don"t tell me . . . This [Chaotic Demon] that was getting awakened refers to Zadokilgias .


If that"s true then [Man-eating Blade] won"t make a difference .


But there"s no way that thing can be resurrected .


Even considering the power [Broken Star], it"s just impossible .


After all, the past me had completely annihilated this [Demon of Destruction] Zadokilgias, leaving absolutely no trace of it behind .
