I Don’T Have Any Magic Power But I’M Having A Blast At The Academy 78

78

A remote mountain far from the city.

“You’re here.”

As the light swirled on the square, Amelia and the boy were transitioned.

“Where, where am I?!”

Watching the frenzied boy with bloodshot eyes looking around, I spoke up.

“Asta.”

Anastasia, leaning out from my chest, climbed up onto my shoulder.

Soon, a brilliant light burst forth, flooding the space with whiteness.

Zzzz…

Bathed in light, the boy, Georg, emitted dark smoke as his body withered.

Having awakened a formidable power at the cost of losing ‘day,’ Georg was now facing Anastasia, who emitted a light several times brighter than ‘day,’ proving to be lethal poison to him.

Georg turned to me with a grotesque face.

“Hello, you little piglet.”

I chuckled and shook his hand.

His reaction was intense.

“I’ll kill you!”

Furious at the word ‘pig,’ Georg rushed towards me, his body trembling. And then.

Whoosh!

Four strands of black magical chains extended from the ground, binding Georg.

It was the trap magic prepared by Undemon, the “Chains of Condemnation.”

As I watched the struggling figure bound by chains, I turned my gaze to the side.

There was Amelia, exhausted and sweating.

“You did well.”

“Phew, I thought I was a goner.”

Upon my encouragement, Amelia finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She had successfully used the ‘Forced Warp Gate’ set up by Undemon to bring Georg here.

Just that alone was enough to say that Amelia had done her part excellently.

If we had let him rampage in the square, there would have been countless casualties.

It could even backfire and trap us instead.

“Kkuh…”

Under the curse magic laid by Elaine, “Silent Death,” Georg trembled uncontrollably.

Normally, the spell wouldn’t have affected him at all, but weakened by Anastasia’s light and suppressed by the “Chains of Condemnation,” it was possible. And this was just the beginning.

Tadadadadang!

Dozens of bullets mercilessly pierced Georg’s body.

“Kraaah!”

Georg, with magic imbued arms, frantically swatted away the bullets and screamed.

Soon, his face contorted grimly as he identified the direction from which the bullets were coming.

“Kkuh! Shouldn’t have missed that!”

The woman relentlessly firing the Beretta was Han Seyeon.

Georg’s body was battered and overwhelmed by the relentless hail of bullets.

Whoosh!

Then, three fireballs launched by Amelia.

“Kraaa!”

Enraged, Georg tried to lunge forward.

But his attempt was halted as a massive hoof pressed down on his shoulder. Georg’s eyes widened in shock as he struggled to face his opponent.

“You are…”

“Drake’s arm. How about that, impressive?”

Aren, sporting Drake’s arm, smiled.

“It would’ve been even better if it was your severed arm.”

Crack—

Georg’s bones shattered, his shoulder twisted.

“…Kraaah! These pests!”

The firepower was concentrated on the struggling Georg.

Bullets raining down. Flying embers. Shoulders hunching.

Georg’s entire body turned into a pool of blood in an instant.

It was a situation where he should collapse and die at any moment. However, Georg, rather than screaming, bizarrely continued to move unharmed. Suddenly, the lad’s blood rose like mist. And then.

Thud, thump. The “Chain of Condemnation” suppressing Georg’s magic snapped.

The “Silent Death” vanished, and Drake’s arm was torn apart.

Anastasia’s light was obscured by the mist of blood as bullets ricocheted off.

“I’ll kill them all.”

Blood, as red as Georg’s eyes, splattered in all directions, staining everything in a crimson hue.

The cursed magic. The manifestation of “Blood Ritual.”

***

While the group engaged in battle with Georg, Eungaye searched for the core of Hans and Georg under the protection of Aren, the blind man.

Finding the core was easy. When Georg invoked magic, the core that served as its source naturally revealed itself.

Eungaye, accompanying Hans, consistently felt a sense of wonder in his calm demeanor.

Knowing that humans cannot coexist with supernaturals due to their thirst for magic, Hans seemed different.

“You don’t feel the urge for magic over there?”

“I do. I’m just enduring it.”

“Wow, impressive. Are all Undemons like that?”

“Yes. They refrain from touching magic at all. It’s an act of forsaking their humanity.”

As Hans spoke, he stopped in his tracks.

“We’re here.”

An old underground intersection. Below, the magic of the core could be sensed.

As the two proceeded down the neglected stairs,

“Wait.”

Hans raised his hand, halting Eungaye’s steps.

“Why?”

“Someone is down there.”

Upon Hans’ words, Eungaye focused quietly. Indeed, a faint presence was felt underground.

‘Did he sense this?’

Eungaye’s mouth slightly agape.

While wandering together, Hans, though blind, had other senses abnormally sharp.

“I’ll handle it. Follow me down afterward.”

Ignoring the response, Hans descended the stairs. However, no sound or motion was detectable in his movement. Concealing himself and reading others’ presence seemed to be this man’s ability.

“Quite the assassin.”

After a moment of waiting, Hans, appearing from below the stairs, gestured.

“It’s taken care of. Follow me.”

“Alright.”

Following Hans like a disciple following a mentor, they descended into the underground passage, where a man in a black hood lay fallen.

Eungaye’s expression stiffened slightly as he gazed at the fallen man.

‘Magic. And a strong one at that.’

Seeing no traces of battle, the man seemed unaware of Hans approaching and appeared to be taken down by surprise.

Eungaye, who had secretly clenched her tongue, quickly turned her gaze toward the direction where Georg’s core could be felt.

“It’s beyond this wall.”

“Seems to be a barrier.”

From beyond the wall of the long underground passage, the magical energy of the core could be sensed.

It was when Hans was about to try knocking on the wall to find a place where magic was cast.

“You don’t need to search. I can handle it.”

“?”

Leaving Hans puzzled, Eungaye touched the wall.

As magic spread across the wall and gravity manifested, her Gift, Gravity, would press down regardless of what it was. Whether it was magical energy or an intangible being, it didn’t matter. The magical array on the wall unfolded just like that. The distorted magic circle crumbled, shattering the magic within.

And after a while.

“There it is.”

In the middle of the corridor pointed out by Eungaye, a space had appeared between the walls.

“Impressive.”

Hans marveled quietly.

Eungaye herself was secretly amazed at her progress. It used to be impossible to control her Gift so precisely.

Even now, precise control was challenging, but after starting training with Ehsol, controlling her Gift had become much easier than before.

Feeling a sense of accomplishment, they entered the newly created passage, revealing a narrow space the size of a small room.

In the center of that dark chamber.

A crimson orb emitting ominous magic floated.

“Is that the core?”

“Seems to be.”

Hans nodded, standing guard at the entrance to the passage.

“Bury the core. I’ll guard this place.”

Eungaye glanced briefly at Hans and brought her hands to her bloodseeking.

Mmm.

With Gravity at its peak, the bloodseeking that had been floating descended to the ground.

***

Boom!

The mine Elaine was controlling as a puppet burst into flames as Georg’s hand touched it, causing it to collapse.

The collapsed mine was taken from Georg, turning into Mira in an instant.

Georg’s body, which had taken the blood, bubbled and seemed to turn into a clot, but quickly recovered.

Then, Georg scanned the battlefield quickly. He then pointed at Amelia, Hanseyeon, and Elaine.

“I’ll personally take care of you three. The rest of you filthy bugs are unnecessary.”

Georg walked towards Elaine, who was closest to him.

Due to the backlash of the broken puppetry, Elaine’s complexion turned pale.

At that moment, three mines controlled by the Undemons rushed at Georg.

“How dare you filthy creatures!”

As if seeing the unseen, Georg grimaced fiercely and swung his hand roughly.

Blood spread horizontally, entwining the three figures in an instant.

They calmly blocked the blood using their respective weapons and skills.

In a moment, the blood they thought they had blocked suddenly surged and engulfed the three figures.

The three figures, their blood inverted, trembled and knelt down.

Georg’s blood skill, “Plunder,” was at work.

Those who had their blood inverted by him had their life force drained by Georg.

That was the terror of the blood skill.

One’s movement was forcibly restricted because they had to be conscious of the blood staining them.

At that moment, the blood sphere suspended in the sky by Georg burst.

Splat······

The rain of blood poured down onto the battlefield.

“Watch out!”

I shouted, radiating my energy like an umbrella to protect the ailing Elaine.

Luckily, since we were near the forest, avoiding the blood was not difficult.

Beside me, Amelia protected Hanseyeon and entered the forest.

“It’s brutal.”

I grimaced at the sight of the two figures who had turned into mirages in an instant. Before the blood skill, even Anastasia’s light couldn’t exert its full power.

The thick blood cloud minimally blocked the light reaching Georg, and Hanseyeon’s magic bullets and Amelia’s flames were mostly obstructed by the blood barrier.

Amidst all this, Georg displayed an astonishing prowess, even engaging with Aren and Gongbang.

Crash?! Roar?!

Drake’s feet clashed with Georg’s fist, and the scorpion tail collided.

Screeech······

Blood splattered on the surface of Aren, armored in the exoskeleton of an arachnid, and oxidation occurred.

“Is this the Seven Evils?”

I had anticipated it, but Georg’s power was overwhelming.

Of course, if I used Icarus’s Ring of Antimagic, even his blood skill could be pierced.

But I chose to quietly observe the situation. The card of Antimagic was to be used sparingly, waiting for the right moment.

Now was not the time.

I sporadically threw Gram’s dagger to disturb Georg and waited for the opportune moment.

And finally, his blood skill ceased.

“······What?”

Puzzled, Georg swung his hand wildly. However, the blood rose only to fall back to the ground.

“What’s happening······”

Pushing away the incoming scorpion tail, Georg stepped back, furrowing his brow.

Aren also stopped charging and stood still. The exoskeletons that composed his body fell to the ground.

Eventually, his skin turned into a grayish color like the rock of a granite and his arms fell, revealing silver-haired wolf arms. The scorpion’s tail shed its exoskeleton.

“How many familiars are you discarding there?”

I approached Georg, who was still bewildered by the bold act of discarding his familiars.

“Why, why! Blood magic…”

“Well, you should have protected your core.”

“What?”

Seeing Georg still not understanding, I kindly pointed out his mistake.

“Did you think your core was invincible?”

“Then…”

Georg finally understood my words, his eyes widening. I nodded.

“That’s right. We have someone on our side who can neutralize your core.”

Eun-gaye must be sweating profusely by now, working hard to suppress his core.

However, time was running out.

“At most, 10 minutes.”

We had to solidify the bond within that time.

Or else he would unleash that dreadful blood magic once again.

“Let’s finish this quickly.”

Seven swords imbued with anti-magic power flew into the air.

The second round was about to begin.
