Falling Mage and the Power of Divergence

Michaela, an operator who exercised wide strategic magic that instantly evaporated the adventurers of the Revolutionary Army, shows a slight surprise when she realizes the presence of the Seyyas. Michaela speaks to Seyya with a mouthful that looks unexpected.

"I didn't expect to see you in a place like this. Thirteenth."

The thirteenth man in Michaela's mouth means as the thirteenth special magician. It was not important to Michaela except that Seyya was the thirteenth person, and I didn't remember Seyya's name or anything.

Seiya, by contrast, gives a harrowing look at the appearance of Mikaela, the original purpose. Seyya's ultimate goal in infiltrating the Revolutionary Army was contact with Michaela sent by Leiria, but more than that, Michaela's exercised magic was impacting Seyya.

Seiya didn't know what the magic exercised by Michaela with the alias "Angel" was, but she does know that the magic is not humanitarian magic. The magic of Michaela, which instantly wiped out the hundreds of magicians without leaving a single dust, must be powerful magic, but at the same time restricted in use in Leiria.

Seyya is only as knowledgeable as she once read in a book, but the magic of slaughtering hundreds of units in a single magic is called wide-area strategic magic. But the exercise of wide-area strategic magic often involves multiple magicians working together to build a magic formation, and it's hard to believe that only one magician can use wide-area strategic magic.

Seyya immediately alerted her surroundings, but there was no sign of anyone but Michaela.

"I'll go ahead, but I'm alone"

"I see."

Seiya answers slightly grumpy when she is read her thoughts, but the look remains harsh. If Michaela was alone in exercising the wide-area strategic magic shown in front of her, the amount of magic Michaela possesses is not comparable to that of a side by side magician.

Then Michaela leaves plenty of leeway because she hasn't had magic deficiencies.

The Thirteen Apostles and Extraordinary Mages are celebrities in the Kingdom of Leiria, and as a result basic information such as their magical properties and ways of fighting is sometimes known. Especially the thirteen Apostles belonging to the Episcopal Church whose abilities are also open in the sense of deterrence.

On the other hand, extraordinary magicians can estimate the approximate magic properties and the like by being given aliases. Riger, for example, can deduce using the magic of the lightning attribute only because it is called the Thunder God, but Michaela's alias in front of Seyya is Angel.

It is believed to use the magic of light attributes because of "angels," but it is suspicious whether the wide-area strategic magic exercised earlier by Michaela is really the magic of light attributes. Assuming it was the magic of light attributes, it would mean that we exercised enough light to evaporate humans, but I can imagine how difficult that would be for Seyya to use the magic of the same light attributes.

Jack asks Seiya, who creates a stray by not having enough information about Michaela.

"Hey, you know him"

"What do you mean?

"He's a jerk, like the thirteenth. I asked if you knew him."

Seyya and Mikaela won't hit anyone they know when it comes to knowing each other or not. Well said, it's as relevant as facial familiarity, but for Jack, who doesn't know Mikaela, I know him well enough.

"Is he someone out there?"

"Yes, but..."

"Right."

"Hey, Jay."

Jack, who was taught that Michaela was an outside man, never asked anything more. Instead, when I take my gaze off Seyya, I stare at Mikaela.

Saiya rushes to stop Jack.

"Stop it. He's not the same person I've been dealing with."

"I guess."

"Then pull in. I'm the one who's after him. And that's why I infiltrated the Revolutionary Army."

Doesn't matter.

"What?"

Seiya speaks unexpectedly to Jack, who has no ear to listen to his explanation. But if I tried Jack, I wouldn't have cared about Seiya's explanation or anything.

"He's a man outside. And now he's got people in this country in his hands. Enough reason for me to take the sword."

"Wait. He's not the same person you've been dealing with. That's comparable to the Demon King class."

Seiya, who doesn't know what Michaela is capable of, but knows to what extent a superior magician is capable, thought that Jack had no opponent. It was also a word I could say because Seiya, who has crossed blades with both the Extraordinary Mage and the Demon King, can assure me that the strength of the Extraordinary Mage is comparable to that of the Demon King class in this country.

But it doesn't matter to Jack what he's capable of. Even if his opponent was a magician comparable to the Demon King class, Jack is an adventurer belonging to the Adventurers Union Dark Area. More importantly, as an adventurer of Dacrya, I could not overlook the attacks of Leirian magicians.

This is no longer a matter of Seyya and Leiria. It was a matter of Leiria and Dacrya at a time when Michaela had the adventurers of the Revolutionary Army in her hands, and there is no way Jack, who belongs to the Adventurers Union, could overlook the act of aggression on the Leirian side.

"This is war. You can't back off."

Seeing Jack not trying to back down so hard, Seiya perceives that it's impossible to persuade him. So I give up stopping Jack.

"Then I'll fight with you. Then you won't have a problem."

"What no?

"I'm the one he's after. And if Jay's purpose is to eliminate the invaders, the purpose must be the same."

"You're so human out there. Pull in."

"Sure, I'm half human out there. But the other half are from this country."

Seyya's body is flowing with both the blood of her mother, Leena-Maria's Leiria, and the blood of her father, Keith-Lucifer's Dacrea.

Seyya is also in the status of a premier magician in Leiria, but in Dacrya he is in the status of the Great Demon King, the Head of State. Nothing is strange about the Great Demon King fighting the invaders for his defense. Even if the opponent was a magician in the same premium magician position.

But Jack doesn't admit it that easily.

"Half must be people outside. Outsiders, pull in."

"An outsider? I'm the one who's after him."

"Know what? He's my prey. And it's my prey. After I hunt him, I'll hunt him, so wait for me."

"Hey!"

That's how Jack storms the Demon Sword Crimson Bloom into Michaela with one hand. The leftover Seyya also immediately tried to chase Jack with a double sword Hollins, but before that, the trees that had suddenly grown from the ground tangled into Seyya's feet.

"Shit."

I didn't know why all of a sudden the trees grew from the ground of the mine, but Seyya uses the magic of the dark attributes to extinguish the trees that had become entangled. But shortly after they extinguish them, the trees grow again and become entangled in the flesh of Seyya.

In the meantime Jack with the Devil's Sword Crimson Bloom reached Angel Michaela.
