Falling Mage and the Power of Divergence

Episode 96: The Dark Knight (Medium)

Lightning attribute. An attribute classified as derivative magic of wind attributes, but technically there are two types of lightning attributes.

Most magicians don't know that there are two kinds of lightning attributes, etc., but for magicians who use lightning attributes, it was very important.

Two types of lightning attributes exist in the lightning attribute: "The lightning attribute derived from the wind attribute" and "The lightning attribute, which is the combined magic of the two attributes: the wind attribute and the fire attribute," which do not change the appearance, but make a difference in the special effects that accompany it.

The special effects that accompany "Lightning Attributes Derived from Wind Attributes" are the same "Curing" as the Wind Attributes, and may include penetration and endurance.

On the other hand, the special effects that accompany "Lightning Attributes, a composite magic of the two attributes of Wind and Fire Attributes," are close to "Activation," not "Curing," a special effect of Wind Attributes, but a special effect of Fire Attributes.

In a concrete example, the thunder that Thunderbeast who was in the Dallis Grand Canyon and Riger, Yua's father, etc. are raising their physical abilities is this thunder.

Why the two lightning attributes exist and the only lightning attribute that originally existed was the 'lightning attribute derived from the wind attribute'.

But more than a decade ago, a man who suddenly appeared showed his artistry of increasing his physical abilities by using 'lightning attributes, a combined magic of two attributes: wind and fire' rather than conventional lightning attributes.

The man's name is Riger-Srillag, a man later known as the special magician Thundergod Riger.

When Riger was active in the Aquaristan, those who, like him, sought to increase their physical abilities by charging their own flesh appeared. But as nobody else, I couldn't be like Riger.

Because I didn't know them all. That Riger's lightning attribute is compound magic, not derived magic.

Then Riger got married and became a super magician. His thunder was said to be a special thunder, which at some point became known as the Thunder God, and he also gained a firm place in the Kingdom of Leiria.

Seeing thunder charging the Dark Knight armor in front of him, Youre immediately convinced. To the fact that the wrapped thunder of the Dark Knight is the same 'thunder attribute' as Riger, a combined magic of two attributes: wind attribute and fire attribute.

"Why the thunder..."

Confused by the dark knight's wrapped thunder, Youre said so unconsciously.

"Because I can use it. Could it have been better this way?

At the next moment, the wrapped thunder of the Dark Knight changes completely from "The Lightning Attribute, a composite magic of two attributes: the Wind Attribute and the Fire Attribute" to "The Lightning Attribute derived from the Wind Attribute".

"No way two kinds..."

"That's right. This thunder is for defense. This thunder is for attack."

"Oh no..."

Yua's shock was enormous because she was the daughter of Thunder God.

"The protection of the Thunder God is here, and now it is time to wrap its power around me." Thunder God ""

Once again, the Dark Knight wraps around his body the 'Thunder Attribute', a composite magic of two attributes: Wind and Fire. The figure was exactly the same as Yua's known thunderous god Riger.

"I'm coming."

The speed of the Dark Knight, which wraps thunder around the Clarigaro Sword and progresses towards Yua, is exceptionally increased by the 'Thunder God'.

Youre tried to generate Hollins but was convinced he would not make it in time and chose to evade. The Dark Knight suddenly pauses as if he knew Yua was going to dodge and is slashed by Yua with a claygalore sword as it were.

"Tempest"

Many knives flew towards the Dark Knight, along with Morna's voice, on the verge of Yua slashing the Klugligaro sword down at high speed.

In response to the flying knife, the Dark Knight is forced to change the orbit of the Clarigaro Sword, which was about to swing down to Youre, swinging it down toward the knife.

The Clarigaro sword, waved down by the Dark Knight, created a wind at its too fast and struck down all the knives that had flown with its wind pressure.

"What wind pressure......"

Seeing the bullshit move of the Dark Knight, Morna snaps.

Moona didn't know how much training she could build up, not only to change the sword's orbit slightly that she was trying to shake down with all her might, but also to shake the sword down with the greatest force again from there.

But only for a moment did the Dark Knight take his eyes off Yua because of Morna's attack. Youre succeeds in retreating into that gap and taking distance from the Dark Knight.

But the face is even tougher than earlier.

Youre never really fought Riger, his father, but I've only seen him fight once for real.

I saw Riger's battle then. That's why I know the strength of the Dark Knight. The strength of the Dark Knight should be considered equivalent to that of Riger.

It hit a monster, Yua thought.

"Yua, what do we do?

Lily's face is as tough as yours. The three of them were working on more than one operation so that any opponent could come, but the operation we did earlier was the maximum output among them.

And the Dark Knight, who could not be defeated by that operation, has no more valid operations.

"Ahhh."

While Youa and Lily are thinking, Morna, who was alone against the Dark Knight, is struck by the Clarigaro Sword, against the wall. The time the Yours had in mind was five seconds at best, but Moona was hit for five seconds.

You're still weak.

A dark knight tries to stab Morna in the stomach with a clarion sword as she hits her body hard on the wall and looks down about Morna, who is unconscious.

"I won't let you. Water Cannon"

"I'm tired of the water."

"Become..."

Lily, who exercised the water cannon to deflect the attention of the dark knight, but the dark knight erases the water cannon without a glance.

There was no way the Dark Knight exercised magic against the Water Cannon, and it disappeared on the brink of whether the Water Cannon would hit the Dark Knight. To the sight, Lily loses her words.

"You're still sweet, too."

"The Hammer."

It was exactly the moment I tried to stab Morna in the stomach. The Dark Knight's body stops moving like it suddenly solidified. The reason, of course, is an attack by Youre.

"I see, you've thought about it."

"Yeah......"

The magic exercised by Youre, the 'Hammer', is the magic that exerts pressure on the subject, with no mass present in the pressure.

Without mass, it cannot be evaporated or wiped off. Thus we can stop the Dark Knight from moving.

But I can't take this down.

"I know... even if I can buy time for a minute..."

"Right."

No matter how much pressure you can't erase, once you have time, the Dark Knight gets used to the pressure.

To be precise, even if you feel pressure, it doesn't make sense in front of a dark knight wrapped around the 'Thunder God'.

"But I can have a minute."

Yua says so, generating Ariel, a bow, on his left hand to tie the Yuriel he has on his right hand.

"I just prevented that move."

"More powerful than just now..."

"Heh."

Earlier Yur's "Holly Law" had suppressed its power because it prioritized firing speed, but this time the Dark Knight, which is a target, cannot move, it can prioritize its power.

White magic gathered in Yua's erected Juliel, but the Dark Knight looked at Yua with some funny look on his face.

"I knew that move was sacred."

"Huh..."

Youre upset only for a moment by the words of the Dark Knight.

The Dark Knight could not have missed such a moment, forcing him out of the weakened 'Hammer' for only a moment. And the Dark Knight is slashed with a clay gallon sword by Youre at the highest speed of "The Thunder God".

A flash of gap pierced Youre unable to respond due to delayed reactions. Youre closes his eyes to withstand the pain that will strike him from now on.

"Yua!

The pain never struck me about Yua, who closed her eyes thinking she'd be stabbed. So Yua quietly opens her eyes.

"Lily......"

What was in front of Yua with her eyes open. It was the look of Lily, who was ridiculous about Youre and stabbed with a clay gallon sword in her abdomen.
