2000 Years of Magic History in My Head

Episode 88. 24. The Way Two Civilizations Fight

When Kang Min-hyuk's participation was confirmed, the students went wild.

Krisman is a one-circle wizard.

Nevertheless, competing in a duel is the same as participating as a prosecutor, not a wizard.

"Did this happen in the history of the duel?"

"Not once. But wouldn't Chris be a good fighter? You were dealing with dozens of Ware Wolves alone in the Green Dragon situation. With that level of skill, I don't think it's going to fall in vainly.

"That's true. To be honest, Chris's sword skills were really unexpected."

those who recognize Kang Min-hyuk

They saw the possibility of Kang Min-hyuk's participation.

But in the case of James Chester, who belongs to the majority, they responded with bewilderment after hearing their words.

"Does that make sense? How can only Chris perform well in a duel competition? It's only when they fight with the Ware Wolves that they don't use magic that they can see through physical force, but in a match against the Wizard, Chris's sword never works. Think about it. A powerful magic trick before you even wield a sword, can you handle the destructive power of a human body?”

James Chester's argument.

In the words, the students sympathized.

"Is that so?"

"Come to think of it, yes."

"Well, the wizards that participate in the duel competition will be more than five circles, if not."

White Castle.

It is the site where the world's top three powers have offered treasures.

With a seven-circle limit, more than five-circles of the Royal Academy of Magic will flock together. James Chester's words were reasonable. Those in this position saw clearly how the James Chester group was beaten by Kang Min-hyuk, but thought the duel was a completely different matter from then.

James Chester case.

It's not the sorcerer's game.

I don't think an individual named James Chester was killed by Kang Min-hyuk and it's a magical problem.

Kang Min-hyuk showed his opponent's magic avoiding, cutting off the flow of mana and attacking the wizard perfectly. Nevertheless, people only thought that James Chester had been attacked. It's a shallow situation where the three circle wizards have yet to properly show their essence. Since real wizards are more than five circle wizards learning imprinting magic, the fight against James Chester is meaningless.

James Chester looked around.

When I confirmed that I couldn't see Kang Min-hyuk, he said in a small voice.

"And Krisman's participation was made at the 'request' of the duel contestants. You know what that means? The seniors disapproved of Chrisman's move and were allowed to participate in the competition to humiliate him in an official position. Actually, I wonder if he can pass the preliminaries, let alone the finals. That much, duel tournaments are not easy."

"Whoa."

"Really?"

It sounded right.

I forgot for a moment.

In this world, those who carry weapons like swords are no match for wizards.

In their common sense, the sorcerer was never weak in one-on-one, and Kang Min-hyuk would be a magical sacrifice without a few steps away. And apart from that, as James Chester said, passing the qualifying round was also suspected.

"I hope we still get through the preliminaries. I'd love to see him play against other wizards."

The sorcerer's defeat was not a shadow of doubt.

That's a natural world.

Then a few days later, the duel preliminary was held.

The day of the preliminary round.

Countless people flocked to the test site A.

They were all wizards from the Royal Academy of Magic hoping to enter the duel.

As such, the name White Castle's treasure brought together graduates who had been far away.

a roaring roar

The students chattered noisily.

Since it was a meeting place between students and graduates, we were busy recognizing each other and greeting each other.

It was then.

The qualification supervisor stepped forward.

"From now on, let me explain the rules of the qualifying round. The duel competition is an honor for talented people to compete for the championship. The number of competitors eligible for the finals is limited to 64 and the criteria for participation are determined by the results of the qualification round. Through this qualifying round, you must prove that you are qualified to participate in a duel competition. If you don't make it to the top 64, you can't compete."

64 people.

It was natural to put a limit on the number of people.

As James Chester said, a large number of talented people expressed their intention to attend, but many of them were significant. There were many students who were only three circles, and some who were graduates but had low grades. If all those who expressed their intention to participate in the duel competition were sent up, Daehi could be crowded and poor in quality, so they had to filter first through the preliminary round.

The evaluation method was simple.

"Participants will now face monsters one by one. There are 30 armadillos of class C with strong defenses, and how fast they deal with all these monsters is the criterion. Armadillo has removed an aggressive instinct to avoid attacking you, but several devices will be in operation to disrupt magical casting. So if you lose focus, in the meantime, talented wizards will quickly finish their qualifying mission."

To deal with multiple enemies.

It was a mission for the wizard.

That fact, the qualification supervisor did not know.

'You said there was a prosecutor in this contest.’

I heard it's Krisman.

For him, however, it is impossible to change the way the preliminaries used to be held regularly.

If you don't make it through the preliminaries?

Then you can fall.

Just because the prosecutor was a minority, I had no intention of taking his convenience.

In fact, one of the reasons why non-magicians dare not participate in the duel competition was in the preliminary round. It is not an environment where tests can pass. Armadillo is a monster with very strong physical defense as well as magical defense. It will take a considerable amount of time to deal with them who don't spin like a ball, but unless they use range magic like a wizard, there's no answer.

So the qualification supervisor affirmed.

The much-trumpeted start of the game will end in vain, more than expected will come to an end.

'In the first place, duel contests are festivals for wizards. In order to step into another's festival, you have to show a performance that meets the criteria. But it'll be hard. How the hell do you deal with multiple enemies faster than a wizard?’

common sense impossibility

The qualifying supervisor shook off the idea of Cleithman and shouted in a powerful voice.

"Let's start the qualifying round now!"

Beep

[Participant No. 038

[Clissmann enters]

It's finally my turn.

As Kang Min-hyuk stepped inside, cameras were seen moving along with him.

'C-class Armadillora.'

It's a familiar monster.

It is named because it looks like an armadillo, but it is actually more ferocious and has a hard outer skin like an armored vehicle. The funny thing is that Armadillo is a monster of class D in Kang's world.

"The evaluation criteria vary from world to world."’

Strengthening civilization and magic civilization.

The two worlds use the same classifications, but there were different grades that were set according to the civilizations that formed each other.

Armadillo was a perfectly matched monster.

Armadillo's defense is very strong, as the qualification supervisor thinks. So it's hard to knock it down with most destructive power, which is only the standard of wizards. If wizards have to burn more than a certain amount to deal with Armadillo, prosecutors can only target the weaknesses that are exposed between the outer layers. Then even the hard outer skin of Armadillo can be easily attacked.

only

'There's a lot of numbers.’

That's 30 of course.

That may be a problem, but Kang Min-hyuk wasn't too worried.

People in the world are still trapped in "biases," but Kang knows a civilization that has already been developed for 100 years.

That is a very powerful advantage.

Beep

[Start!]

Tadak.

At the start signal, Kang Min-hyuk kicked the ground.

At that moment, my thighs swelled up and gave me tremendous speed. The time that only Cleese spent over the Wall. As a result of that time, the body of Krisman has become incomparably stronger than before. With his full strength, Kang pulled up Mana, and immediately vented Mana toward Armadillo.

'Aura wave.'’

Sasa Ssagak

The blades of a mana spouting forward.

It was a 'range attack' that could be used by a Ganghwa warrior.

I didn't use it as much as I could because I used a lot of mana at once, but now I have no time to think about it. You must finish it faster than the wizard. Mana's blade did not indiscriminately cut through Armadillo's outer skin, but precisely penetrated the crevice by elaborate controls.

Surak!

Ssasak!

Oh, my God!

Armadillos screamed and scattered blood.

The elements that interfered with the magic had no effect on Kang. Though the ground shook and the rocks rose, Kang Min-hyuk is a prosecutor who overpowered his opponent with his physical ability. He escaped all the distractions by bouncing up and cutting off the lifeline by thrusting a sword into Armadillo's body.

Pooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Poohahaha!

Blood spattered.

A thin, long sword, not the great sword used by only Cleese, but also the inside of Armadillo.

Kill and kill again.

Kang Min-hyuk's swordsmanship showed a phenomenally very concise appearance. It would take quite a long time for prosecutors known in the world to handle one or two, but Kang Min-hyuk's speed was very fast.

a scene in a flash

The last moment Armadillo fell, the voice of the system was heard.

Beep

[Participant No. 038

[Four minutes and 52 seconds to qualify]

[Fourth Passer]

".........?!"

Four minutes and fifty-two seconds.

It was incredibly fast to handle 30 armadillos.

However, in the preliminary round, which was held by 10 players at the same time, Kang Min-hyuk was only in fourth place at that speed.

in other words

'There's three more people in front of me who handled it faster?’

My heart was chilled at the moment.

This is a magical civilization.

In this world of magic development, Armadillo's hard magic defense could not withstand the magical destructive power.

'Maybe we could lose the preliminaries.’

a different situation than expected

But it was the same with the supervisor.

At a time when Kang had a regret that he should have been a little faster, the supervisors watching the situation were stunned.

Kang Min-hyuk's record.

That was, by no means common sense.

"Wow!"

"You crazy!"

The supervisors who were watching Kang Min-hyuk's preliminary situation jumped up from their seats.

Kang Min-hyuk's swordsmanship.

As soon as I saw him mutilating Armadillo in a flash, I couldn't shut my mouth.

"Does this make sense?”

There is a common sense in the world.

With the weapon of the sword, you can never cut the outer skin of an armadillo. Even if they attack the breach, it will take a long time to penetrate Armadillo's tough skin. If Kang had finished in 10 minutes, he would have thought he was really a great player. That was the line that the people of the magical civilization could allow, and Kang Min-hyuk seemed to take less than five minutes to handle it all at this rate.

It didn't make sense.

"Ola" is completely out of common sense, cutting off the blade of Mana's sword and hard skin at once.

I was puzzled.

In the meantime, other contestants finished their preliminary rounds.

[Participant No. 031

[Time to pass preliminary round 3 minutes and 34 seconds]

[Participation number 035

[Four minutes and two seconds to qualify]

[Participant No. 039

[Four minutes and nine seconds to qualify]

Their skills were great.

All dealt with Armadillo in five minutes, but that was a predictable range.

the preceding three passers-by

They were all more than five circles of wizards.

The powerful firepower of five circles couldn't withstand even the armadillo, so it was possible to pass through in an early time. The problem is that the number of wizards over five circles who have participated in the duel competition will never exceed 64. From the four-circle wizard, there will be more than five minutes of records, and just in time, Kang Min-hyuk showed his passing through in five minutes.

[Participant No. 038

[Four minutes and 52 seconds to qualify]

Of course I was surprised.

I was sure Kang Min-hyuk wouldn't make it through the preliminaries, which showed the possibility of advancing to the finals.

It was then.

"That's too bad. I should have finished a little earlier.”

Kang Min-hyuk's words.

It was heard through the camera.

Then, the preliminary supervisor's eyes widened.

"What the hell is he?"

beyond common sense

Kang Min-hyuk's participation has been creating a stir since the preliminary round.
