The World of Masks

The blessings of the four gods begin to kick in and give life to the Magic Cube. The hot, passionate and intense energy rushed into the early readings to work magic in a magical camp. The light that flowed became stronger.

'Too bad.'

Jack had a taste. The red light that emanates from the Magic Cube flickers and an enormous vortex of energy erupts into it. The amount of life ejected from the crystal itself turned into faint particles of light and was wandering around in a magical fog.

'But efficiency is terrible.'

Jack grips his bitter stomach. The magic group Jack drew is a dark magic group. And what is commonly used as the energy of the Dark Magic Group is not just the life that is extracted from animals or monsters, but the life that is extracted from humans. Of course, it is not impossible to use the HP extracted from animals or monsters as it is now, but the efficiency drops extremely. You're still using four full crystals. It was closer to the idea of forcibly stimulating the crystal to move, rather than using its energy as food, so the surge in efficiency was inevitable.

'If I were a dark wizard, I would have built a much more efficient gin, but · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·.'

If it was the Dark Wizard, who was symmetrical to the Dark Knight of the Demon King's innermost power, he could have used a transformation to trigger magic at all costs. But Jack himself is a dark knight. I couldn't improve my efficiency by changing my gin as well as a dark wizard.

'I'm afraid I can't help it. It must be done.'

Whether you know Jack's clumsy gaze or not, the magician's life force rapidly intensifies and slowly begins to move with a consistent set of rules.

Whoo-hoo!

The radiance of the four crystals slowly begins to fade, as if they were almost out of vitality inside. However, on the contrary, the magicians burst at once, rushing to the outside, like they were about to explode.

Glug.

Finally, a change in the shape of the magic genie began to take place. Like an extending spider web, the symbols, letters, and shapes that existed only within the circle of the magic circle began to expand its area around it. At first, the expansion of the magic team that had been going slowly accelerated over time.

Peek-a-boo.

It was essentially blood, so something reached the sorcery camp that was shaking and expanding its power. A human corpse. The corpse, dressed in plain but decent clothing, as if it were a servant working in a royal palace, was torn from side to side and separated from the spine to the spine, as if the human had folded sideways. The sorcerer slowly approaches the corpse. The sorcerer soon came into contact with the blood flowing from the corpse.

Bloop!

Blood, a proof of life leaked out of the body, was absorbed into the magic circle in an instant. The sorcerer reaches out to the corpse even more to see if the blood from the corpse isn't enough. And I started draining all the blood I had left.

Wood Duck!

As all the blood in the body was taken, the corpse withered in real time. It was like drawing life out of a bead of life. However, the sorcerers drew only blood and did not rob the corpse for life. Sucking life wasn't the magic role that was triggered just now. The purpose of the magic unfolded was to plunder the blood from the surrounding corpses and expand the enchantment itself.

The sorcerer who had new blood slowly summoned his body as he painted the expanded sorcerer back on the ground with the blood he had just taken. When the body is found, it drains all the blood from it and expands again based on the drained blood. Suddenly, the sorcery camp extends beyond the palace and outside the palace. After that, it was easier. There were more bodies rolling around outside the palace than inside the palace. It's not just a corpse. There was blood from the torn limb, and there was still enough blood in the scattered intestines. The sorcerer doesn't miss a drop of blood on the floor, but absorbs it all.

"What, what, what is this!"

The sound of horror resounded throughout the city. There were still many who survived that genocide. Humans desperately wandering around in a safe place, avoiding explosions and flames, staring in horror at the expanding enchantments that lie beneath their feet. Those who witnessed the sorcerers devouring the corpse's blood gracefully. From sudden explosions to massive deaths, fireballs descending from the sky, and magical factions plundering sudden bloodshed. The humans in the capital were clearly having the worst time of their lives. Some people tried to rub their feet in a hurry to clear the magic camp, but that's not the only way to get rid of it. The sorcerers have only stopped the expansion until they are blocked by the massive wall surrounding the capital. If you look down from the sky, you can clearly see a giant red blood enchantment carved into the capital around the wall.

Are you done? '

As the sorcerer's activities deteriorate, Jack looks at the distant wall. Maybe that's where the magic circle was drawn. A red magic circle carved into the floor seems to be asking you to use it quickly. It flashes and radiates blood.

'Then let's get started.'

It may seem like you've done something great, but the magic Jack is actually casting is just magic. There was enough life consumption to make my eyes pop, but I couldn't help but get what I wanted.

'It's useless to be afraid.'

I poured out all the life I had and put the four crystals back into the bracelet, all of them together in silence. Only one crystal remains in the square from the Demon King's Dungeon. Use four Crystals to draw a Magic Cube and connect the Drawn Magic Cube to the remaining one. With the pulse of the magic genie, the crystal also carries a black energy and repeats itself. Jack slowly approaches the crystal.

'Here we go.'

You swung your sword high and gently tapped the crystal.

Pa!

Crystal reacted violently to Jack's unprecedented behavior. A huge red light was emitted from the sorcery camp that was nothing compared to now. The red light wrapped around the entire capital as it was a magical jewel. It seemed as if the capital had been moved in an instant at the time of the bloodshot sunset.

Slowly, the abilities within the enchanted circle began to awaken. The drawn enchantments consisted essentially of the enchantments that were painted on the top of the Demon King's Foundation. Other than the ability to evolve the beads of life, the most fundamental ability was the ability to steal life force from the corpses within the enchanted circle and transfer it elsewhere.

Ridiculous!

The corpses lying around the city began to wriggle away, absorbed their vitality as a whole. Human beings burned to death from the fire, human beings trampled on by other humans on the run, etc., all the deaths were different, but they were robbed of life by the sorcerers without being equally drowned. Dead bodies are easy to find on the side of the highway, and even those that are hard to find by dying deep inside the house are no exception. On the red lines that make up the city's magic circle, life began to gather at the center of the magic circle in the palace. In an instant, the crystal begins to rise to life. The more vital the crystal becomes, the darker and duller the light it emits. The lines of the sorcerer supply life as if it were a hose carrying water.

"Heeheeheeheehee!"

Screaming throughout the city. Survivors who saw the scattered bodies of their families and neighbors suddenly wither away their lives. Humans ran the streets screaming, even though all the city entrances collapsed with explosives and had nowhere else to run.

Whoo-hoo!

The crystal, which greedily swallowed its life force, was filled with more than a certain amount of health. At that moment, a strange change occurred in the magic circle. Until now, the magicians who were working hard to transfer the life drained from the corpse into crystals began to operate other functions that Jack had put in as soon as the life force met the conditions. In the crystal, a large amount of vitality was absorbed into the magic circle and disappeared.

After a while, the sorcerer rises. When the lines that were literally drawn on the ground turned into red energy, he lifted himself up. The red energy bodies that wiggle like tentacles rooted in the ground have risen from all over the capital, under the influence of the sorcerer. The shifting beams of light in the air, like a breeze of free air, sprinkled a fresh crimson glow. It was an unexpectedly wonderful sight, but it was just a frightening phenomenon for those who had already fallen into a panic. Screams echo through the capital again.

Twitch!

The wandering trunk of light shook like a hand craving the sky. Then he began to move towards the living humans around him. Humans staring at the flashes of light with their eyes filled with fear, and as the flashes gradually approached them, they ran back to the other side. But the rays were already rising in the former capital. I couldn't run anywhere.

A beam of light rushed towards a citizen who was just running, not knowing where to run.

Phew!

The burning sensation penetrated my neck.

"Huff, puff!"

The vocal chords that always gave their own voice are no longer ringing. I raised my hand and stroked my neck. Something strange was touched. He opened his blurred eyes and looked down. A beam of light protruding from the magic camp on the ground pierces his neck and shakes the sky. My hands are weak and my throat snaps.

Ridiculous!

As soon as human life was extinguished, the beam of light absorbed the life force of the freshly deceased corpse. The beam of light that sucked into the corpse's last remaining vitality trembles once as if drunk. And now you throw away a pile of useless corpses.

Whee.

Fluffy!

The shell of a human that flew for several metres and scattered around everywhere. The beam of light begins to search nearby for other prey as if it were no longer interested in it.

This was happening everywhere in the capital. Those who barely survived were harassed by the rays of light, taking their lives and lives. As time goes on, the screams of the humans subside. And when the last scream faded, only the living humans disappeared and the faint sound of magic filled the silence of the capital.
