Genius Warlock-Episode 544
544. swan prince (3)
Oliver is unable to use black magic for a few seconds due to a prayer uttered by a bizarre stone statue..
A huge fist made of hundreds of arms welded together fell on Oliver's head..
A threatening strike that penetrates a gap..
The gigantic fist pressed down on the air with its overwhelming mass, tying up everyone below, so no one could escape and only had to look up at the fist..
While everyone was shocked, Oliver clenched his left hand into a fist..
someone muttered.
“no way······.”
Just in case, Oliver threw his left hand into the sky with his bare body unable to use black magic..
━━━━━━━━━!!!!!
fist and fist clashing.
An indescribable roar rang out, and a tsunami-like shock wave spread in all directions, shattered flesh and bone fragments..
Surprisingly, the shattered pieces of flesh and bone were not owned by Oliver..
It was none other than the fist that struck from the sky, and Oliver stood proudly among the shattered remains of the gigantic fist..
“······.”
Power, size and mass. Everyone looked at Oliver in silence at the sight that made no sense whatsoever..
It made no sense for a huge fist like a giant to be crushed by the bare fist of a skinny warlock..
However, doubting and looking again did not change the facts before our eyes..
Oliver, who couldn't use black magic, was fine, and the only thing that was broken was his huge fist..
“······.”
Everyone was shocked and couldn't say anything. Not only the people watching from the side, but also the Swan Prince who was dealing with Oliver..
He was so agitated that his signature poker face shook..
It wasn't something I couldn't understand..
He neutralized the warlock's greatest weapon, black magic, for a few seconds, and struck an unexpected blow at exactly the right time, but it made no sense in common sense to defeat him with his bare body..
But, it definitely happened now..
The Swan Prince was embarrassed. However, he soon came to his senses and ordered the strange bird to attack Oliver..
Upon receiving the summoner's order, the monster moved its huge body and tried to rush at Oliver..
thud! thud! The shaking earth. Just then, Oliver pointed up into the sky..
“······?”
[Black Rods)]
As soon as Oliver's words left his mouth, a large stick of emotions came together and fell on the strange bird's head..
thud!!
The identity of the huge stick is a quarter staff that flew into the sky..
As the quarter staff flew into the sky, it absorbed the surrounding emotions and grew in size..
This is possible because the sky is also included in the realm of Sleeping Forest..
When the huge stick collided with the monster, a circular shock wave was generated and pierced through the monster's body as if breaking it..
It looked like a person had been pierced by a pillar, and the Swan Prince was astonished when he saw this..
Well, I smashed the huge fist with my bare body and even prepared for this unexpected counterattack..
But it wasn't over yet.
[lightning)]
As Oliver chanted, a thunderbolt flashed in the gloomy sky typical of Sleeping Forest, swam through the clouds like a snake, and crashed down on the Black Road, radiating intense light and heat..
bang━━!!!
Oliver exercises control over the forest based on the knowledge he received from Sleeping Beauty..
When a huge black thunderbolt fell, the emotions wrapped around the quarter staff reacted like gunpowder, causing a huge explosion..
A huge explosion followed by lightning.
A lightning flash that could not be seen with the naked eye flashed, and intense heat was generated, burning not only the ground but also the strange bird that appeared through the huge door..
Damage beyond repairable area.
Naturally, everyone expected that the Swan Prince would not be safe either. There wasn't even a trace of it.
At a time when everyone was unable to figure out what was happening, Oliver exercised his control over Sleeping Forest and folded the space to move it. I chased after the swan prince who was running away..
Surprisingly, the Swan Prince survived even after being hit by that powerful electric shock..
Go beyond simply holding on and understand the situation calmly. Deciding that he could not defeat Oliver on his own, he quickly retreated before the aftereffects of the attack subsided..
Indeed, great.
However, Oliver caught the Swan Prince with the eyes of a warlock and folded the space of Sleeping Forest to catch him behind..
“······!”
Not only the people watching but even the Swan Prince were astonished by Oliver's movements..
The Swan Prince was embarrassed. He held Oliver in check as he quickly closed the distance by swinging his flesh knife..
The Swan Prince's attack was very threatening, but it was easier to counter than expected because it was an attack made up of unusual movements and power rather than basic refined techniques..
Oliver prepared his black magic with one hand, dodging all of the Swan Prince's attacks, while simultaneously digging into the Swan Prince's arms and activating the spell..
[Purification)]
Oliver chanted and plunged the black magic he had created into the Swan Prince's chest..
A piece of ice in the shape of a barnacle sprouted from the body of the Swan Prince. As soon as he confirmed it, Oliver dodged the attack again and widened the distance..
As soon as the distance was widened, the ice sculptures that sprouted on the Swan Prince's body expanded their territory like barnacles, and the Swan Prince's confused emotions glowed..
It's definitely cold because it's ice, but it's not as powerful as you think..
The Swan Prince was confused by the unknown black magic, but tried to retreat..
beetle.
“······?!”
Just as he was about to move again, the Swan Prince realized something was wrong..
Energy was draining from my body at an incredible rate..
This was the characteristic of purity. Rather than indiscriminately growing in size by eating everything like a wild fire, a specific target. So, I only absorbed the life force of the Swan Prince and froze him..
Ice made with reference to Tamhwa's pros and cons of indiscriminate expansion and uncontrollable firepower..
Of course it wasn't as powerful as Tamhwa, but that didn't mean it was useless..
Although it did not have the powerful range and firepower of Tamhwa, it had accuracy and tenacity instead. So it may be more effective for some people.
For example, like a swan prince who has exhausted all his strength and kneels down on one knee..
Through the thistle crown on his head, he received an enormous supply of life force that was incomparable to before, but before he could use it, it evaporated as fuel for purification..
It's like pouring water into a bottomless bathtub..
Was it because of that? The vitality injected through the thistle tube began to weaken..
This meant two things. Either the materials needed for regeneration have run out, or the person who supported life refuses to support it any more..
It wasn't too much of a stretch. The resources needed for regeneration were not infinite..
The dwindling support shook the Swan Prince, who had maintained his cool even when struck by lightning, and he tried to shake off the ice that had clung to his body even while injuring himself..
A struggle bordering on self-harm. However, even if the barnacle-shaped piece of ice fell, it immediately sprouted again..
The result of choosing tenacity instead of firepower like fire..
While the Swan Prince was preoccupied with cleansing, Oliver used flesh, ribs, and skull to attack the Swan Prince, reminiscent of an artillery bombardment..
[Finger Gun)]
[Bone Bullet)]
[Rib Spear)]
[Skull Bomb)]
The black magic used by the puppet encountered in the contaminated area in the past showed as much firepower as the ingredients used, and struck the Swan Prince, causing great damage..
The life force that is already disappearing is reduced to a point where it is reduced to nothing..
“······!”
With the Thistle Crown's dwindling support, the Swan Prince's vitality also gradually reached its lowest point, and the once calm Swan Prince was suddenly consumed by nervousness and creeping fear, and his judgment became clouded..
His blurred judgment made him even more nervous, and he ended up driving the fleshy knife into the sleeping forest..
deeply!
Originally, it was planned to absorb the Sleeping Forest all at once by stabbing the princess, the root and foundation of the Sleeping Forest, without giving her the ability to escape.,
The Swan Prince prepares to suffer losses due to an unexpected variable called Oliver. First of all, I decided to absorb at least a part of the sleeping forest..
If you make a mistake and absorb it, the area will disappear. There was concern that Sleeping Beauty would run away, but on the other hand, they decided that Oliver was a threat enough to warrant such a loss..
Well, it was obvious that we would lose if we continued like this..
The way the Swan Prince wins is by absorbing some of the Sleeping Forest's power. He decided that there was no other way than to take down Oliver at once with his overwhelming firepower..
With that in mind, the Swan Prince tried to absorb the Sleeping Forest with all his might, but he realized something was wrong..
The flesh knife had not absorbed anything..
The prince's weapon forged with the devil's knowledge.
A situation that cannot be understood with the Swan Prince's common sense.
At that moment, the Swan Prince looked ahead and made eye contact with Oliver..
A being who goes against common sense by placing his left hand on the floor at the same time as the Swan Prince stabbing the sleeping forest..
The Swan Prince instinctively knew what Oliver was doing now..
He used his influence on Sleeping Forest to interfere with the Swan Prince just as he was about to sink his flesh knife into him and absorb him..
The Swan Prince's poker face cracked once again and he asked wordlessly. How is that possible?.
Oliver, who interpreted this through his emotions, answered.
“······After receiving lessons from Sleeping Beauty, I was able to exert control over Sleeping Beauty..”
That was true. When watching Sleeping Beauty's shadow puppet show, Oliver also learned his knowledge about the forest..
The same goes for dropping a huge lightning bolt from the sky without any preparation..
The Swan Prince's mask cracked even more at the unbelievable fact, and Oliver said another word..
“Thanks to you, I can also do this.”
Oliver, who had deployed the technique to block the absorption of the flesh knife, deployed the technique again and changed its form from defense to attack..
Rather than blocking the flesh knife that was trying to erode and absorb, it actually burrowed into it..
The Swan Prince panicked and tried to pull out the sword, but was unable to do so, and in that state, Oliver eroded the inside of the flesh sword through the sleeping forest..
Oliver used the Sleeping Forest as a medium to retrieve the people that the Flesh Knife had absorbed and bring them out..
The evidence is the lumps of flesh rising from the ground of the Sleeping Forest. Among them was Red Hood, who was completely ruined..
“······!!!”
The Swan Prince rushed at Oliver, screaming silently with a collapsed poker face, as if something that should not have been invaded was violated..
However, the Swan Prince has already exhausted most of his life force. Oliver lightly fired a shockwave and sent the Swan Prince flying far away..
The swan prince flies like an empty can.
After pulling out the hundreds of people absorbed by the flesh knife, Oliver slowly stood up..
Perhaps because they were absorbed by the sword made with the devil's knowledge, all those who came out showed side effects such as vomiting, dizziness, panic, and fainting, and were unable to control their bodies..
Some of the dogs with strong mental power or outstanding skills looked at Oliver, who had taken them out without losing consciousness..
For example, two large men with pig heads who are believed to be disciples of Red Hood or the human meat cook, and a warlock wearing a kitchen knife..
Oliver took a quick look around with them and then approached the fallen Swan Prince in the distance..
He was already very weak due to purification, and it seemed difficult to move due to the barnacle-shaped ice fragments that had formed on his body..
That meant that the Swan Prince's life force was running out..
‘The black hand above my head also disappeared. The black magic energy felt in the thistle coffin also disappeared..’
thought Oliver, looking up at the thistle-crowned head..
The Swan Princess, the leader of the Swan Order, said she would support a prince candidate through the Thistle Crown, so it seemed like she had withdrawn her hand..
I decided that I wouldn't get anything even if I applied more than this..
The Swan Prince must have known this, too, as he had an expression full of despair, like a child coming to an orphanage for the first time..
Like a child abandoned by its parents.
Oliver looked at him impassively, wondering whether or not to rip off the thistle crown on his head..
Since the cult leader could later send power through the thistle tube, it was right to tear it for safety, but tearing it apart would have lowered its value as a research material..
No matter how I thought about it, the black hand on top of my head seemed to be related to the thistle crown..
Oliver thought in silence, and hundreds of people who watched Oliver's fight from afar and hundreds of new people sticking out of the flesh knives looked at Oliver..
I was drawn to that strange and overwhelming presence..
Eventually, as time passed, Oliver made a decision and stretched out his hand towards the Swan Prince..
Oliver's slowly extended hand was about to touch the frightened Swan Prince..
widely.
Someone grabbed Oliver's hand..
It was a puppet.
