Hup

Buzz At the same time, magic circles began appearing with a purple light and surrounded Davey. There was one in front, one behind, and one on his left, and they came together to form one large magic array.

-Ive never seen that language before Is that a rune language?

In this world where magic was extremely advanced, there were languages known as inherent magic that could only be used by certain geniuses.

Each magic circle was engraved with rune words, which each had its own purpose. Shining individually, they began revolving around the entire magic array. Buzz Buzz!! The magic circles revolved like a motor, then slowly moved away from Davey and went as far as ten meters before multiplying. The circles were being produced continually, but they all differed in shape. They vibrated with each other according to their unique arrangement of mana.

Magic was a study in the anti-physics realm. It was essential to control the natural, intangible forces. Even if lightning were to be made another way, it would be much more efficient to forcibly induce lighting from an existing thundercloud rather than creating one by chance. There was a huge difference between changing the direction of an existing waterway and recreating a waterway by making water and creating a path.

The entire area behind Davey was made into the boundary.

[Range Lock]

[Boundary Expansion]

[Formation Rearrangement]

All Davey had to do was get rid of the chimeras running behind him; there really was no need for him to find all of them. Watching the chimeras go into his controlled area without noticing him, he quickly grabbed Red Ribbon that was floating in the air. At the same time, Red Ribbons large amount of mana and his mana resonated together and turned on the switch, like a magnet attracting a piece of metal.

The mark of a unique rune language began showing up on top of the monsters heads.

Man. I really wanted to try this, too.

-What is this?

Die, you nasty bugs!

Its a lightning bolt and not a rain of fire, but it shouldnt matter, right?

[Catastrophe Spell]

[Bolt from the Blue]

Rumble Boom!!! Hundreds of lightning bolts fell from the sky and onto the marked chimeras as Davey lightly swung Red Ribbon in the air.

* * *

Every one of the chimeras turned to ashes from the lightning bolts that fell from the sky like a merciless barrage. The lightning bolts, which were dormant inside the enormous thundercloud, devoured Daveys weak trace of mana and shot intense flashes of light that were about 27,000 degrees Celsius toward the monsters.

Various types of magic could be shown to the world, but this type of magic was considered too dangerous to ever be taken lightly. If people knew that Davey was using it

Davey felt like life was being drained out of his body from his intense concentration, but he ground his teeth and maintained the boundaries. It would seem like hundreds of lightning bolts were raining on the entire forest from afar.

-This was theoretically possible, but

Perserque trailed off and was now staring at Davey like he wasnt human.

-Is this an amount of control that one human being can endure

Shaking her head in disbelief, Perserque stopped when she saw Daveys pale face.

-It wouldve been nice if you told me about the hurt youve been trying to endure

Davey couldnt hear Perserques bitter mumbling. He had to maintain the boundaries, even if his brain felt like it was burning with each additional second.

* * *

Perhaps the monsters intelligence was lower to balance out their extremely elevated physical abilities. Like moths to a flame, all the monsters, which seemed to be Lingtons creation, ran into Daveys controlled area and burned to ashes.

-Davey!

Wheeze Wheeze, Im okay. Im okay.

-Do you know how pale you are right now?!

I wouldnt have been able to ascend to the 9th circle if I was going to die from this. Davey didnt use a lot of mana, but it took a toll on his mental strength. The moment a panting Davey was about to deactivate the magic as the last monster turned to ashes, he saw something strange. Ugh Im feeling sick This is driving me crazy. I think I might die if I dont go back and res

Davey stopped mid-sentence when he saw a carriage boldly enter his unidentifiable boundary. A carriage? Why is a carriage in a place like this?

Although it was deep in the forest, it wasnt completely out of the ordinary for a carriage to come in here. The forest wasnt a particularly rough area. However, on usual days, a carriage would have stopped or turned back if they saw lightning bolts falling from the sky abnormally.

Either they wish to die, or they have a way to dodge my lightning bolts.

However, it didnt take long for Davey to shake off those thoughts. He saw a hidden group of people following the escaping carriage and killing the escorting knights in quick succession.

-That is

Perserques eyes sparkled; perhaps she realized what that carriage was at the same time as Davey.

-Davey, thats the symbol of royalty.

There was a symbol engraved on the carriage door. This symbol usually represented a family or their affiliate; the problem was that it was of a platinum color. The only people who could have a platinum-colored symbol on this continent were royalty.

It wasnt the Contas Empire, since they were thousands of kilometers to the west, so Davey could only think of two empires: the Pallan Empire and the Lyndis Empire, which were both located in the east. Davey couldnt recognize the symbol, but it was clear that the carriage was royalty, and that the royalty was being chased by an unknown group of assassins.

-Ignore it, Davey. They are not ordinary beings if they are assassins chasing after royalty. If you provoke them for no reason, you might encounter a different type of danger

Even though Perserque expressed her worries, Daveys gaze was fixed on the carriage since he saw someone looking out from the window with a tense expression. She only looked to be in her late teens, and she was quite tiny. Although she was wearing plain clothing, she had glittering blue hair, and was wearing a strange mask that covered her entire face. Not only that, but she was also wearing white gloves on her hands; it seemed like she was hiding her presence. And this fresh energy that weirdly cleared Daveys ringing head

Hm, this scent is that of an elementalist.

Hm Davey didnt think for long.

-Davey?

Keeeee!!!! The magic circles began rotating with speed and resonating again. Davey gathered as much of the thunderclouds power as possible and left a mark on the assassins who were chasing the carriage. He exhausted all of his mana and created an inducing magic circle.

Boom!!!!! A lightning bolt that was incomparably larger than before fell onto the assassins. They probably didnt know what killed them, but even if they did, they probably wouldnt think that this ridiculous natural disaster was intentionally caused by someone. Well, at least for now.

Oh no! My hand slipped.

-

Ah, I dont know! I didnt see anything! Davey did think that he had met the ladys gaze through her mask, but it didnt seem to be a big problem. Then, he quietly called Perserque as he stared at the carriage riding off into the distance. Perserque.

-Why are you

Letsrest.

-Davey!!

With those words, Davey began falling to the ground as his vision blurred. I get extremely sleepy every time I do something huge Unfortunately, he felt that he couldnt expect his level to increase as it did before when he had also used the holy magic spell. Sometimes, he couldnt shake off the thought that he was also stupid.

* * *

Simply put, Davey slept extremely well. What was he talking about when he always had a good nights rest? After his sixth sense had improved, there were times he had woken up from a bug crawling on the floor.

There are advantages to having sharp senses But Sigh

Sometimes he couldnt rest comfortably when he wanted to because of those senses. It was like his body reacted first, even when he just wanted to do nothing.

As he slowly raised his head after letting out a tired sigh, Davey saw a quiet forest in front of his eyes. Perserque?

-Oh! Are you awake, Davey?

As Davey woke up in a daze, Perserque, who was holding up a large leaf with water, approached him with a bright expression. She couldnt affect anything in the physical world other than energy forms or Davey, her companion, but she could use her demon power and cause something like a poltergeist phenomenon from time to time. At first, she could only move a piece of paper, but it was clear that her power had become stronger with time.

-Have some water first.

Oh Thank you. I feel better now, after a good rest. How long was I asleep for?

-Only a couple of hours, but

Perserque trailed off with a bitter smile.

-I think the Ordem Territory is probably in chaos right now.

Youre right. Davey calmly got up from where he was sitting and climbed up onto a tall tree. It mightve been a relief, but it seemed that the territory didnt send a search group out for him. Well, it wouldnt have been easy to utilize the army since Baris was gone. With a giggle, Davey said, Lets go back. Theyre probably worried.

Perserque seemed displeased, but she said nothing.

* * *

Big Brother!!

It was a little unexpected that the person who greeted Davey first wasnt a resident or the royal guards, but Baris. Davey wondered to himself, He was absent when I arrived at the territory. When did he get back?

Baris? When did you return?

It hasnt been long since I got back! But are Are you okay?!

Hm?

Examining Daveys body in a hurry, Baris let out a sigh of relief when he found nothing wrong. There were no huge issues with Davey aside from the blood stains.

Its a relief that youre not hurt anywhere. You dont know how surprised I was when I heard that Winley and Class-5 Yulis told me that you were left alone at Count Lingtons hidden facility in the forest Trailing off, Baris grit his teeth. Then, I heard that you stayed back after rescuing the two. I was going to form a rescue group and head there, but

You wouldnt have been able to come.
