Hector's Star.
genius wizard.
The modifiers used to describe Edwin Hector proved that his place in life was special..
I had confidence in myself.
And the last few years.
Confidence was gradually eroded..
When I met Roman Dmitri on the southern front, I faced a wall that I could not overcome, and the fact that I could not do anything even after discovering the beast that was starving Hector gave me a deep sense of helplessness..
Even in that situation, Edwin Hector did not stop..
He whipped himself harshly, practiced magic at the Magic Tower in the Sky, and formed an alliance with Roman Dmitri, doing the best he could..
however.
An incident occurred that destroyed even the slightest bit of confidence..
In the all-out war between Kronos and Dmitri, the Kronos Empire mobilized as many as 8 circle wizards..
‘……8The level of the circle is something I can never compete with, no matter how hard I try or how much I devote myself to training for decades. The Kronos Empire. The person I want revenge on is such a monster, and Roman Dmitry, who fought a fierce war with me on the southern front, has gone so far ahead that I don't even dare to look at him..’
It was strange.
The magic tower lord of the sky praised Edwin Hector's development and used the expression 'genius of the century', and if you look up and look at the sky, there are beings that are untouchable..
Kronos, the enemy of Roman Dmitri and Hector, who defeated him..
By the time I reach out and reach them, they have already reached a state beyond heaven..
I was overcome by evil.
I gritted my teeth.
Devoting all his time to training except for political activities, Edwin Hector devoted himself to magical development..
Then one day.
Edwin Hector witnessed a shocking sight..
swordsmanship presentation.
I saw the future of magic academia in the sight of Roman Dmitry talking to people about the 'sword revolution'..
‘Roman Dmitry described the brain as the upper front. Forming a circle around the heart, which is the middle jeon, and creating an aura vessel near the bottom of the navel, which is the lower jeon, can be interpreted to mean that the upper jeon can also be developed. If you unlock the secret of the top battle. This is sure to be the clue to the magic revolution..’
Magic.
How is this unknown power manifested?.
By forming a circle in the heart and assimilating the mana of the circle with the mana of nature, a disaster that can be described as a natural disaster can be controlled according to human intention..
In this process, the circle is not the only condition required for the wizard..
An extremely developed brain. The circle is a passage for mana, and the brain handles the flow of excessive information and mana that is sucked into the head, so only when both the circle and the brain are developed can the magic of the Go Circle be revealed..
so that.
As wizards rise in circle, their hearts and brains develop..
The reason people commonly called geniuses became wizards was because brain development was directly related to magical talent..
blast furnace.
I changed my thinking.
If Roman Dmitry's theory refers to the development of upper brain power, it could be taken to mean that 'brain ability' can be acquired later..
This was truly a great hypothesis..
If a 3rd circle wizard develops enough to use 5th circle magic, the wizard will show a power that overwhelms wizards of the same level..
It is not just that the power of magic will increase, but complex synergies such as the speed of processing magic will definitely lead to rapid development..
I'm in trouble.
the future ahead.
In order to take revenge on the Kronos Empire, one needed the strength to deal with monsters like Shephir..
at last.
Edwin Hector made a decision..
Because I wanted to become stronger, I threw away all my pride and left for Dmitry..
The time when the sun rises in the sky.
Edwin Hector arrived at Dmitry, where Hoffman had left..
* * *
Please tell me about Sangsangjeon (上丹田).
It was a sudden development.
Even though it was an embarrassing situation for Roman Dmitry, he looked at Edwin Hector with calm eyes..
“Dmitri and Hector are allies who belong to the same kingdom alliance. However, that alone is not enough reason to tell you about the top battle. Why do I have to go through all that trouble??”
In those words.
Edwin Hector's eyes changed..
It was a somewhat unfavorable answer, but it was clear that Roman Dmitry's remarks knew about the top battle..
then.
this was an opportunity.
Edwin Hector said.
“I also agree that this is a reckless request. Although the concept of 'danjeon' was explained at the swordsmanship presentation, sharing information without compensation is forcing Dmitri to make a one-sided sacrifice. Let me tell you straight. I am confident that Sangdanjeon will be the clue to the magic revolution. If Hector shows significant results through information disclosure, we will disclose both the process and conclusion transparently. We will do our best to help Dmitry achieve the same results as Hector..”
didn't hide the truth.
The hilt belonged to Dmitry..
He was not unaware of the fact that, from the absolute B's point of view, half-baked negotiations would ruin the relationship..
“And this is confidential, but we are currently secretly working on relocating the Magic Tower of Heaven to Hector. I’m not asking you to trust Hector’s abilities. The Magic Tower in the Sky and I will unravel the secrets of the top battle and create meaningful results. Roman Dmitry. Through this war, the Kronos Empire proved that it had magical power beyond imagination. The Shefir's magic is destructive, and their limits are unfathomable. The Kingdom Coalition also needs strength to counter him. Hector, and the Magic Tower in the Sky. I will become an opponent to the wizards of Kronos..”
the world was changing.
Kronos revealed his dirty ambitions, and the fact that he used black magic put the Magic Tower in the Sky into a sense of crisis..
no more.
I couldn't trust Kronos.
The relocation of the sky was good news for Dmitry..
Roman Dmitry said.
“Dmitry has a phoenix. Do you think that they alone can't find out the secret of Sangdanjeon??”
“no. We recognize Phoenix's ability, but we don't have much time. A truce with the Kronos Empire makes no sense. In a situation where we don't know when they will reveal their ambition to conquer the continent again, I think we can achieve results quickly if we all work together. We will actively accept Phoenix Mage Tower's participation in the process of researching top battles. It's not about monopolizing the results. I just hope that by working together, we can create results that will satisfy everyone..”
laughed.
Edwin Hector's judgment was right..
Being honest about your purpose was the best you could do in B’s position..
Roman Dmitry stood up..
“Let’s change seats. I have something to show you.”
* * *
The place we arrived at was the Magic Tower..
When Roman Dmitry entered, the Phoenix wizards were shocked and quickly formed a line..
“Sir, what's going on??”
It was Felix..
After confirming the existence of Edwin Hector, he looked suspicious..
“I want to use a magic training ground. Make a place and call Nox..”
“All right.”
No special explanation needed.
immediate fulfillment.
Roman Dmitry's orders were absolute, and no matter what orders he gave, the wizards, including Felix, followed them without question..
To them, Roman Dmitry was a divine being..
Didn't Roman Dmitry save Phoenix, which was collapsing in the Frankish Kingdom, and succeed in rebuilding the Magic Tower?.
The work proceeded smoothly..
Following Felix's guidance, we moved to the magic training room, where Nox was waiting as ordered..
“Nox forward.”
“yes.”
Nox stepped forward..
Roman Dmitry said while looking at Edwin Hector who still did not understand the situation..
“I heard that after Edwin Hector entered the sky, he gained enlightenment and entered the state of the 5th circle. Nox, like Edwin Hector, is a 5th Circle wizard. If you defeat Nox through magic sparring, I will tell you the secret of the top battle without any conditions..”
Moment.
Edwin Hector showed a strange expression..
I couldn't understand Roman Dmitry's intentions..
But what was certain was that he could not refuse this offer, even if it was just to find out the secret of Sang Sang-jeon..
blast furnace.
“I will accept the sparring..”
Edwin Hector chose to take it upon himself.
* * *
Above the training ground.
Edwin Hector looked at his opponent..
A battle between a wizard and a wizard.
In a situation where each circle was the same, the success of the striker first was very important..
‘A moment to quickly gain the upper hand. It is difficult to overturn the situation with magic of the same level. You must interrupt the opponent's casting with magic that can be used quickly from the start, and bring the atmosphere with follow-up attacks..’
It was a common sense decision..
Magic has many limitations.
The more powerful magic you use, the more complicated the casting process and calculations are required, so you are not allowed time to leisurely use your magic in a one-on-one battle where you compete against each other..
So, in the case of war mages, there were not many high-circle mages..
They are the type of people who use Zercle magic efficiently, and Edwin Hector has learned the ways of a War Mage through sufficient war experience..
The circle shook..
At a time when he was watching his opponent with keen eyes, Roman Dmitry gave a signal..
“start!”
“Lightning Arrow).”
Falling in love.
The first striker was Edwin Hector..
In addition to using 1-circle magic that can skip casting, the destructive power of the attribute has been increased by adding Aqua Arrow..
The power of water and electricity mixed together to attack Nox..
Edwin Hector immediately expanded the circle and quickly attempted a follow-up attack by casting high circle magic..
It was fast.
however.
“Fire Cannon).”
Hwaak-
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Intense flames spewed out..
Edwin Hector widened his eyes..
The fact that the opponent used 5-circle magic without any special casting meant that the casting process was omitted through Memorise..
It was unexpected.
Before we started sparring, we agreed to use 'Memorize Magic' only once, but I had no idea that they would try to gain the upper hand by manifesting 5-circle magic from the beginning..
This is rather.
It was an opportunity.
Edwin Hector showed simple improvisation rather than memorization magic..
“stone wall).”
Rumbling.
Skip the existing casting.
Transformed basic elemental magic into a wall..
Forming an intangible force like fire into a wall is a magic of 4 circles or higher, but Stone Wall was a simple magic that did not require casting..
It didn't block the opponent's magic..
A stone wall was formed on the ground where he was standing, and Edwin Hector instantly rose into the air..
fault-
It was a shocking sight.
change of idea.
Nox's magic was rendered useless by overcoming the flame's range without using much force..
Kwaang!
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
flame exploded.
The Stone Wall melted in an instant, but Edwin Hector was able to seize the opportunity..
“Memorize, Thunder Cannon).”
Squeak.
Jijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijijiki.
Past experience.
Edwin Hector met monsters like Roman Dmitry on the battlefield..
He realized that he could not accomplish anything simply by relying on the destructive power of magic, and through continuous experience, he learned the improvisation of war mages..
It can be a dangerous method.
Even if it's a little wrong, you won't be able to avoid Nox's magic, but Edwin Hector, who gained the upper hand in 'Memorize' with a bold decision, seized the opportunity to counterattack..
battle between wizards.
The difference in circles was absolute..
Nox, who had already used Memorize, had no way to block the 5th Circle's Thunder Cannon from the front..
The only way is blink.
It would be okay to just move through space, but knowing that, I chose the Thunder Cannon because it can attack quickly..
Blink is not omnipotent.
That also obviously requires 'casting' time, and Nox immediately after using Memorise has no choice but to counter with the magic of Zeracle..
That was the dilemma.
Due to the difference in the circle, Nox will face a situation where a single mistake will lead to defeat..
I wasn't sure of victory.
but.
I thought I had the upper hand.
Edwin Hector immediately prepared for the next spell, but witnessed an incredible sight..
“fire cannon.”
Hwareuk.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Nox.
The 5th circle magic was revealed again..
As electricity and flames violently collided, Edwin Hector reacted in confusion..
‘……What is this?!’
Did you use Memorize?.
It wasn't.
That doesn't mean the people around him were unfazed..
If so, the only possibility is that it was cast, but casting this quickly was realistically impossible..
created magical power.
I had no intention of admitting defeat..
I risked my life on Hector’s future..
That moment.
“Sparring is already over.”
right behind.
Nox appeared.
Not only did he use the 5-circle magic in succession, he also had the power to take the lead with Blink..
I was embarrassed.
Couldn't accept reality.
Edwin Hector continued his training at the Magic Tower in the Sky, and was confident that he would not be surpassed by wizards of the same level..
But this was an overwhelming result..
As Edwin Hector looked at Nox with a cruelly distorted face, Roman Dmitry's voice pierced his ears..
“Edwin Hector. Dmitry has already applied the theory of ‘top warfare’ to magic..”
There was a crack in his expression..
It was shocking.
Dmitry had already occupied the unknown territory he thought he had discovered and even planted a flag..
“Let me ask you again. Why do I have to go through the trouble of telling Hector the secret of the top battle??”
