The wise man returns

Semi-finals

The solution is simple. This highly concentrated Mana allows you to move comfortably for a short time and stop the function.

But then Penzance dies. If that level of Mana crashes, Penzance will never return to his original body and perish.

‘I can't do that. ’

Balin decided to do something else. He blinks once more at Penzance, then taps into his cane to suck the Mana wrapped around him.

Squeeze!!!

When Mana is sucked out, Penzance returns to his original position and falls on the pitch.

They were all sucked out of their Manas and were unconscious. Even though the battle was already set, it was okay.

Even a simple wizard and a sovereign master were powerful Mana who would be consumed.

But Valine had much tougher and stronger power than that.

“Huff! Huff! ”

Balin accepts the sucked Mana and stops the activation of the magic staff.

Mana, who was pouring like a waterfall, vanishes like a lie the next moment.

Mana's creation remained on the outside.

Balin reaches out lightly towards those that were about to be scattered into the air.

“Huh… huh? ”

I tilted my head without knowing how the onlookers were doing.

I just wanted to run with the orange blades.

Things have been weird ever since Penzance turned into something.

“Well, how... how...”

Something must have happened and Penzance fell, and the winner had to be Balin.

But now, Balin was working on something else instead of winning, and the moderator was unable to make a swift declaration of victory.

I wonder how long it's been since Valine opened her eyes after about a decade.

“Puha...! ”

I only took a breath once, but my eyes became darker.

Every new Mana that came through the ether in the body was dismantled.

The decomposed Mana flows into the traditional Mana circle. I was very fortunate for Balin as it was highly concentrated.

“Tower, are you all right?! ”

“Oh, yes! Yeah, well...”

As soon as I opened my eyes, people said with a silly expression.

No one came to their senses because it was such a strange series of things.

Balin moves toward Penzance, unable to answer.

Penzance's expression remains steady after confirming that he's alive and that there's nothing wrong.

“Well, well...”

“Your Highness is fine! Let's get the kidneys and the therapists! ”

The Declaration of Victory did not fail, but no one knew who had won.

One axis of the finals is finally decided.

* * *

“Oh, my God."

“You said you polished the sword at Ruby Tower. There's a secret to that. ”

Even after that day, the audience room was noisy with many stories behind it instead of shouting for cheer.

Balin, who thought he was going to be a Candidate Wizard, created the Orb Blade.

If it was possible to cast magic at the same time, perhaps its future was superior to anyone else in the world.

If that's true, the power grid that everyone expected is complicated.

The Holy See is now crowning the entire empire with the Awakening of Leven.

However, there was no reason to say "red figs."

At this rate, perhaps decades from now, the sword and magic will reach their heights.

Magic Swordsman with a seven-class enchantment while using the Orb Blade all you want!

Just hearing the words gave me goosebumps on my spine.

Moreover, what Balin has learned is the magic of fire. In terms of pure destructive power, the most powerful of the five attributes of Fire Magic!

That alone is frightening, but no one knows how much destructive force will be amplified by the free material next to the sword.

Besides, the rumor that Balin has been in good company with Representative Leven for some time now is that he has everything from artifact creation to golem handling.

It was the perfect recruitment target, but it was also the perfect bridegroom.

Already a man and a woman, all the members of the Imperial family have been relentlessly searching for Balin.

“Ah, Valine... I wish I could hold you in my arms just once!! ”

“Oh my gosh, my dreams are big. I love him with one ear. Lady, if you had whispered... ”

Women's salons never ceased to talk about Balin, even at the meeting of the male aristocrats.

The main topic was the discussion about the background of Balin and which way it should stick together with the Pope.

There was a heated discussion about whether we should be on the right side of Valine for the future, or contact the Holy See.

The outcome of this discussion will be the family tax! In order not to make the wrong choice, the nobles gathered information carefully and carefully.

One of them mentioned Sapphire Tower. It was from the fact that Balin used a sword.

“By the way, I hear the Sapphire Tower has been replicating a lot of Ruby Towers lately, and you've probably been getting that information since Premier. ”

“Sapphire Tower?! Isn't that where you set up the day of the Ruby Tower and the incident? ”

“No, I don't need to look at it that way... Not long ago, Claude Tower...”

Ruby Tower and the tower that has been in contact with Balin since before!

The power and stock price of the Sapphire Tower soar.

A kind of ‘polished effect’ began to appear.

The story is still confined to the Imperial Circle, but soon it will be all over the Kadeem Federation. And in a few months it will spread around the world.

It was a reputation that could not even be compared to the Artifacts.

Balin was expecting this to some extent.

When I had enough power for a long time, I thought I'd move like this.

It was a faster exposure than planned, but it wasn't as bad as it was already strong enough.

Balin rides his wagon back to his quarters as he continues to talk nonstop.

Normally, I would have walked back, but I couldn't today because of the nobles surrounding me.

“Ball Ball! Can I talk to you for a second? ”

“Just stop for a second! I've prepared a celebration for today's victory, along with the nominee, Earl Evelyn...”

“I'm sorry, I'm so tired today. I'd like to take a break. ”

Balin speaks in a gentle but cool tone and closes the carriage door.

Evelyn is riding alone in the wagon.

“What about the rest of the group? ”

“I went back first. just like you said.”

Evelyn sighs, saying so.

I was plagued by the nobles outside.

He deserved to be the next emperor.

Moreover, if Evelyn becomes the emperor, the Holy See's consensus has not been natural.

From the position of the nobles, especially the nobles, a good person suddenly falls from heaven.

Simply put, people who come into contact with Balin see the future decades from now.

Those who contacted Evelyn, on the other hand, were the minions who wanted to borrow the emperor's status immediately.

“Who have you been in contact with so far? ”

Balin gathers Mana and asks Evelyn.

“Well... I don't really remember much, but there were more than three nobles of the late class. There was no Duke-class nobleman. ”

‘I will. ’

The palace of Balin, thinking of the Duke's nobles, has gone up in smoke.

The Duke's nobles couldn't have come here.

The Duke is the Duke of Ketil who has been leading all his forces towards the Great Wall for a long time.

He was rightly referred to as the king who built one separate force, rather than the Duke.

All that's left is the Duke of Rudens and Abel the Duchess, and Balin was the first to know what was going on there.

“Here, Evelyn. Hands over here. ”

“Yes, yes? ”

Evelyn, who inadvertently reached out her hand, was startled by the feeling of Balin holding it.

However, Balin unleashed magic without hesitation.

I knew that if I kept dragging the wagon back to the inn, it would bother me in many ways.

Spot.

After returning to the inn via the teleport, Balin slowly walks inside.

Evelyn sighs behind her back.

“If you move like this, the horse will be in trouble. ”

“I put a few gold coins on the seat in advance, so it shouldn't be a problem. Looks like someone's waiting for you. ”

Balin simply replies, pointing his hand at the inside of the inn.

Sonia, Arnax, who came first, and now Palias.

"I had something to look into on my own, didn't I? ’

I felt a long stick in my cloak, and my face shivered.

This is the magic staff I picked up at the end of the match.

It was said to be a Class S artifact, but hiding it like this, it just felt like a metal cane.

‘No one would have thought that this cane had that ability. ’

The power of minting was an ideal transformation for all wizards.

Concentrated Mana comes out endlessly, amplified output and sensory hundreds of times. I feel like God for a moment.

The word S class artifact fits perfectly, but Valine isn't too happy to use it.

“You made it! You made it! ”

“Welcome, ball. ”

The three of you coming out the door bow at the same time. The sparkling eyes seemed to have a lot of questions about Mine.

“I'll go up first to check on Leven. I took lessons from teacher Minarva. ”

“Please.”

First, instead of Leven going up to the second floor, the three who gathered together at the table opened their gates to Balin.

“Ball Ball, I didn't know you could even handle an Oracle Blade! ”

“Amazing! I felt a lot of things watching. ”

“He was worthy of Master Andropos. I'm impressed with you, Palias. ”

Surprisingly, instead of thinking about minting, a question was asked about Balin's sword.

Balin, who has only been using magic so far, suddenly appeared to be a master of the sword class. It was worth it.

Balin thought, with the answers he needed at that time.

‘This staff doesn't suit me either. It's better to use an ether than a minnow anyway. ’

Obviously, a Class S artifact was right, but other than mind-painting, it's not as messy as a Class B artifact.

That's why Balin was reluctant to do the magic staff.

The unique abilities from the necklace were much stronger anyway, but there was no reason to use the lowest S rank artifact.

Nevertheless, I brought this for another purpose.

‘If you take it to Elia, we can make some additional improvements. Or... or...

Balin thinks of Sapphire Tower in her head.

There was definitely one reliable henchman there.

‘It was Alberto. I'll give it to you later, if it's going well, and then I'll seal it with Mana's contract. ’

A class S artifact can be worrisome if you are a slave to a vampire family or the Demon King's army.

Moreover, Alberto refuses, since the opponent has been in partnership since the beginning.

Then the problem is Elijah, and perhaps we should give her a suitable gift as well.

'I need you to make a proper artifact out of Lennon's corpse. Get the ball right and get a better staff than this! ’

The dragon corpse was able to make a great masterpiece with its current craftsmanship.

Of course, I had no choice but to be worse than the Sky Key he used before.

The power of Skykey is still full of questions about Balin himself.

On the other hand, it was natural for Balin to lead a new one.

Of course, it's stronger than a messy Class S artifact! If that's all, Elijah can do, too.

When Balin finished her thought, two people came down from the second floor with a rattling sound.

“Valine! Valine!”

“We're in trouble! Leven! Representative Leven!”

Earl Minarva and Evelyn. It seemed like something big had happened because his face was white.

Balin opens his mouth as he feels the blood coming out of his face in real time.

“... What did you say to Representative Leven...”

“You're awake! You're burning up! ”

“!!!!!! ”

In news like a bomb, Valine wakes up immediately.
