Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 854: Conference location

[OP: ]

In an unknown distant land that not many knew about, there was a battle going on…

"Awooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…!"

A giant energy beast that was of the highest possible level. A beast that possessed high quality Mana and, a beast that lived in the land of a volcano.

-Oooooooooooooong!

Against him caught the headmaster of the academy, fighting with his one of a kind magic, facing a being that was covered in a temperature so hot it melted the very ground beneath its feet, a being that resembled a wolf, possessed three dark black horns, had three tails on its back, and glowing white patterns all over its energy body burning so hot not even the headmasters spells survived in its presence.

"Awooooooooooooo…!"

-Ooooooooooooooooong…!

-BOOOOOOOOOOOM!

One was attacking while the other was trying not to deal with the attacks.

Both of them were strong and their powers matched closely… so whenever their standoffs had come to a brief pause, the one to grasp the golden opportunity was the only one that had managed to deal any kind of damage to the opponent.

'As I thought…'

This place, a volcanic reason situated at the very west of the western continent, was not a place many visited due to the presence of one of the most active volcanoes of the continent— Dhargni.

It was a primordial volcano that had been present on this continent even before the formation of the continent itself.

According to some stories, it was a layer of one of the primordial dragons, a home of the one standing above any other entity ruling one of the six main elements, a personification of this nature's true supremacy.

Though, these stories had never been confirmed, even by the headmaster.

All this region was thus only a dangerous land on part with the nine forbidden areas of the world where no one dared to step foot into… the only difference between the forbidden Zones and this place was that the strong people, or those with actual power to endure the excruciating heat of this place seldom travelled here in search of the great riches, or, a battle with something much stronger than the beasts that they could find in the calm forests of this world.

For the highest ranking adventurer parties, this place, mainly the outskirts of this place, was a loved hunting ground and some even tried getting past the initial monsters to face the real dangers.

As adventurers, they knew very well what they were supposed to do, so they followed their hearts and fearlessly explored even the dangers like this one.

Still… not even the strongest of them ever dared to go to the central zone or, the place that was famous as the [Hell's entrance] thanks to the absurdly strong energy beats native only to that place.

There were talks about how a Catastrophe or even Disasters lived in this area, and they were not exactly wrong about that.

'Even the weakest of them all is of this level.'

According to the knowledge of the headmaster, there were mainly six beings in this central area that were considered the most ferocious, or dangerous to the others.

These beasts possessed powers beyond the level of the highest graded (Purple) beast and were somewhat comparable to the beasts of the forbidden forest.

The amount of Mana that they possessed was abnormally high and even though they did not possess divinity, the kind of strength that these creatures possessed was something even the headmaster had difficulty dealing with.

And, since these six beings were essentially the lords that maintained their own territories, killing any of them would bring even greater disarray to this volcanic regain that might end up causing long term harm to the overall stability of this place.

'Looks like I'll have to be a little more aggressive.'

He was afraid of killing even this weakest of them six, the one that was technically still stronger than any other regular (Purple) rank beast out there.

He knew his actions might result in the deaths of the amazing adventurers who do visit this dangerous place, and he could not have something like that.

Thus, he only wanted to weaken this beast, capture it and seal it away while creating a substitute clone for the beast that would take care of this place in its absence… but, from the way this creature had been retaliating until now, he thought his original plan to be nearly impossible.

'Then…'

-Ooooooooooooooooong!

A ground burning red by the heat from the beast.

A barren wasteland with dark weather, a giant volcano with red vomiting lava.

An atmosphere where life is nearly impossible and yet, a land where lives of unique nature had adapted to this special environment.

Mana of this place was stagnant and extremely hot, filled with fire elements more than any other.

Even for an archmage, it was difficult to separate the other elements from this kind of environment, and the resistance or near immunity to fire and heat made the fire attribute magic of even the headmaster nearly useless against them.

They were strong creatures and the headmaster knew this particular one was especially stronger than the others.

"Awoooooooooooo…!"

-Oooooooooooooong!

It had high physical stats, it could use the fire element in nature with the help of the innate fire that had taken the form of a special kind of energy, and it had developed skills that were nothing less powerful than the (tier-8) spells of the headmaster.

"I apologise…"

-Snap!

-Oooooooooooooooooong!

Still, before an archmage and someone possessing multiple divine and world Authorities, this creature was certainly not an impossible opponent to deal with.

'You are strong.'

The headmaster used his own Mana to create a giant pence of light element that was also a special (tier-8) spell, however, that first spell was only a distraction. Read exclusive content at m_v-l'-NovelBin.net

"Awooooooooooooooo…!"

The moment the wounded beast with white magma like blood flowing out of its wounds used his own breath of deadly explosive flames to block the lance of light, the headmaster conjured another spell— a (tier-9) spell.

'I know you can handle this much.'

He used a combination of all five elements that he could use with the effectiveness of the water element in the centre of it.

With it, he created a sword in the air that was a twentieth of the giant wolf's size, or twice his own, and when this crystal like blue swords was summoned in the sky above it… for the first time a genuine look of fear shrouded the eyes of the ferocious being.

It knew this sword, this attack was unlike anything that it had faced until now, and it could sense the danger immediately.

"Awoooooooo!"

It had counterattacked in response to the previous attack from the headmaster, however, the moment it sensed the danger of the blue sword, it knew it had to do something.

It knew its life would be at risk if that attack hurt it in the wrong way so, the moment it sensed the danger that was summoned in the air above it, the wolf-like creature immediately reacted and tried to get away from it… however, resistance was futile here.

-Swish.

-Kha—Chak!

The sword moved even faster than an eye could blink and, the blue sword, the (tier-9) spell that had manifested in the same sky the mage had been floating in since the start of this battle, pierced right through the blazing skin of the great creature…

"AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

The screams of the being filled the area… it was lucky to have dodged the blade of the spell sword in the very last moment, but it still got its hind leg pierced by it.

"It's alright…"

The creature was already wounded, and now thanks to the dangerous wound that it received, the pain of the cumulative damage was overwhelming all of its special senses.

It was a being born in these lands, a physical being possessing the physical senses like the other normal creatures do.

It could sense the emotions of joy and pain and sadness and hunger just like the normal creatures and the reason it had survived until now in this harsh environment, was also thanks to its survival instincts.

It wasn't evil or anything, and it had done nothing wrong to either the headmaster or to anyone that he cared about.

Perhaps, that was the main reason the headmaster did not give him any greater wounds than what it currently had.

"Your sacrifice will save countless lives in the future."

This volcanic reigns, this very lang that was burning with the eternal flames of the ancient volcano, was going to be the location for the grand conference of this time.

The individuals that would attend the conference will be escorted to this location through various underground passages or, some of them will just fly all the way here.

Some of them were strong enough to kill every single being in these reigns but, they did not wish for something like that to happen so, he had to give out instructions to those crazy ones beforehand.

And after he creates a safe zone for the normal people who could not handle the kind of environment this place contained, he will finish the rest of the work and go back for the other preparations.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to kill you."

His work for now was done, so he looked into the obsidian eyes of the giant creature that seemed to have given up on its life.

"You won't be seeing your home for a while, I apologise for that. However, please don't worry about anything."

-Oooooooooooooooooooong.

With the support series magic of barrier type, he first created a safe prison to keep the body of this being, and used a unique series of magic to put the creature into a deep slumber that will be impossible for even this one to get out of.

"When you wake up from this long dream… you will not remember anything about this painful experience."

-Oooooooooooooooooong!

Then using the illusion series of magic that he was best at, he weaved an illusionary beast that looked, felt, behaved, and seemed exactly like the wounded creature did before receiving all those wounds.

There was no difference between both the creatures, even their Mana signatures were almost identical.

It was as if the being that had just appeared out of nowhere, was in fact the same creature that the headmaster had been fighting all this time.

Except, the one that had appeared out of nowhere was a creation of the headmaster, and not of nature.

"Grrrr…"

In its last moments, the creature that was falling into the eternal slumber did certainly see the new being, but… that was the last thing it witnessed before the spell took its effect and its consciousness was sealed.

"Well then…"

So, now that the threat was dealt with and the creature was safely stored in his personal separate dimension, he had his confidence location.

The headmaster was done with his work now and the ones in charge of cleaning up and basic decorating were already here, so they were now going to start the next thing which, thankfully, would be much easier than dealing with a ferocious creature of that scale.
