episode_0029

Leon swept away everything inside the training room.

I also packed up the books that I haven’t been able to read yet due to lack of time.

I tried to level up as quickly as possible, but it still took quite some time.

‘About 3 weeks… …?’

If he had been down for a long time, it would have probably been longer than that.

“Fly.”

Leon wears golden wings, levitates a wooden staff made of ancient trees, and holds several scrolls in his hands.

“Come out.”

A translucent sphere floated up next to Leon, who was muttering softly.

This was a magic that could harmoniously control the four elements and reached the level of Arpina 5. Leon could use the magic by changing the translucent sphere into a summoned beast with the desired attribute as he wished without having to summon a separate summoner.

It was better to summon it in advance because just summoning it would drain the magic power.

Leon, who had finished preparing, lowered the lever.

Ku-kung-

A door that seemed unmovable began to open.

By the time the door opened enough for Leon to see what was happening outside, the six golems waiting in front of the door were all looking in Leon’s direction.

There were only six golems in front of the door.

Spreading the search spell wide, I could see that there were fifteen golems in total.

Ten armor golems and five gargoyle golems.

They didn’t attack right away, but just stared blankly.

‘The moment I step out the door… … I feel like I’m going to get attacked.’

When Leon was first summoned here and used his exploration magic, he noticed that the structure in front of the door was not much different from the original passage.

There was a long corridor, with rooms on both walls at regular intervals.

However, there are fifteen golems wandering around the passage.

It was a shame that this training room was located in the middle of the hallway.

‘There must be stairs at the end of the passage… ‘

The exploration magic didn’t reach beyond the closed door at the end of the passage, but it was possible to infer the structure based on the previous structure.

And another thing we can infer.

That the exploration of the rare is not yet completely finished.

If the exploration was over, there wouldn’t be a golem like this in front of the door.

It seemed like there wasn’t just one passage to Rare.

‘You don’t have to deal with everything.’

I had no intention of contesting strength with fifteen of them.

I still don’t know the power of the Gargoyle Golem.

Anyway, the first goal was to retrieve the wooden sword.

As Leon went out the door, the two armored golems that had been right in front of him rushed towards him.

Leon immediately used the acceleration of his golden wings to fly high up to the ceiling of the passage.

At that moment, the gargoyle opened its mouth and looked at Leon.

A magic circle appeared in front of his mouth, and then dozens of invisible thorns appeared and attacked Leon.

“Brain light.”

Leon created three lightning bolts at the same time and threw two of them towards the wind thorns.

Kwakwang-

As the two beads collided with the wind thorn at the very front, electricity instantly spread out over a wide area, creating an explosive sound.

However, the thorns of the wind did not come from just one place.

The other three also belatedly shot wind thorns at Leon.

The remaining one is preparing another spell, but the magic circle is glowing, and the magic has not yet been activated.

Leon dodged the magic with acceleration again, and pointed his finger at the gargoyle preparing another spell.

The one remaining marble flew away.

Boom- crack-

The magic didn’t do much damage, but it was interrupted and the magic circle in front of the mouth disappeared.

“Heukguya.”

When Leon called out the nickname he had created, the translucent sphere turned brown.

Since the magic is not yet perfect, it has not transformed into the original 4-star earth summon.

‘Let’s go to one side first and move to Blink when the stairs come into view.’

Leon immediately started moving in the direction he had set his mind to.

“Spit it out.”

Every time the armor golem jumped, it would spit out a volley of rocks from its brown sphere.

This also didn’t cause much damage, but it was more powerful than when he was an apprentice, and was effective in preventing him from reaching Leon’s location.

The Gargoyle Golem’s magic is blocked by lightning, and the Armor Golem’s magic is blocked by the rocks shot by Black Orb.

Gargoyle golems that prepare large magic spells from time to time are also controlled by lightning or thunderbolt.

And when the wind thorns rush in from a direction you can’t avoid, throw a D-rank scroll to block them.

Leon currently has 5 D-grade disposable scrolls.

It was the total number of scrolls obtained as general quest rewards over 4 days.

After two Explosion Scrolls were consumed, the end of the passage came into view.

Leon immediately injected magic into the Blink Scroll.

Objects touched by Leon’s magic were teleported together.

As the magic power grows stronger, there is no longer a need to hold them in one hand.

If only the magic power was connected, it was possible to enter the jewel together.

As expected, there was a door at the end of the passage.

Leon quickly lowered the lever and rose into the air again.

“See you later.”

He grabbed the jewel.

‘It’ll take 30 seconds for the door to open… … .’

Leon recharged his magic for 30 minutes, checked his equipment again, and then came out of the orb.

The golems that had been wandering around all looked at Leon again.

“Get away.”

bang-

The armor golem at the very front was struck by lightning and stopped.

Meanwhile, Leon used the last of his remaining acceleration to enter the door.

In front of the open door, an armor golem was standing with its head bowed, but it raised its head when Leon came out.

“Brain light.”

Leon held up three fingers, and an electric orb appeared above each finger.

Three marbles were thrown at once.

Boom- crack crack crack-

It was definitely different from the apprentice magic that had no impact.

The armor golem hesitated and knelt down.

“Brainstorm, brainstorm, brainstorm.”

Lightning strikes continuously from the ceiling.

Kwakwang- Kwakwang- Kwakwang-

Kwajik- Passus-

After falling about 3 times, the armor was shattered.

Leon took a deep breath as his magical power drained away.

“Haa, it’s really hard… .”

Even though it wasn’t a perfect magic, Glorious Lightning was a magic that was quite specialized for attack.

You have to match it 6 times to catch it.

Of course, even so, if it’s a mystical level wizard, it seems like it won’t be too hard to catch.

“But you’re saying the exploration isn’t over yet?”

Leon tilted his head and looked around.

‘It’s an ascending staircase.’

When Leon thought about it, the place he was summoned to was definitely deeper than where he was originally from.

That would be the case, since it is a completely private training room.

I thought I had to climb up to find the wooden sword, but luckily it was a staircase going up.

If it had been a downward staircase, I would have thought twice about running back to the other passage.

‘I might have had to spend a day inside the orb to fill the accelerator wing standby time… … .’

Leon, who only took the Armor Golem’s helmet, filled up his magic power inside the orb and went up the stairs.

“Uh… ….”

Leon opened his mouth in a daze at the sight that came into view as he climbed all the stairs.

A wide plaza spread out where there should have been a passageway.

The walls of the square were lined with stairs going up and down.

There appeared to be at least twenty of them.

The stairs Leon came up were one of them.

Leon walked around the square.

There were no people in the square, and no trace of magic.

‘Is there only one square like this?’

There may be more.

Or if you go down one step, it just continues down endlessly.

Leon thought about it for a while, then decided on a place he wanted to go and climbed the stairs.

Luckily, there was no door blocking the way up the stairs.

There was nothing structurally unusual up to this point.

As I climbed the stairs, the passage came into view at a glance, but the problem was that it was not easy to tell whether this was the passage where Leon had originally been.

‘I did leave all the doors open, but… … .’

No matter how much you explore, you probably don’t close every single open door.

Leon went straight back down and climbed another flight of stairs.

After repeating this about 4 times, I discovered that each door had an open passageway.

‘Because the room where I was engulfed in light was the last room I was in… … .’

The room you see as soon as you come up the stairs is probably that room.

I looked in front of the door, but the wooden sword was gone.

Leon didn’t approach the door, but instead looked at the room opposite.

‘This is the right place!’

It was a room scene that had become familiar to Leon’s eyes as he placed the remains of the golem one by one into the orb.

‘Fortunately, it was connected to the square… … .’

Or maybe there was only one square.

It now seemed more likely to assume that it continued endlessly below.

As Leon looked around the other rooms except for the training room where the magic circle was drawn, he became certain that it was the passage he had been in just before being summoned.

And Leon discovered a wooden sword lying in front of a door located halfway up the hall.

Leon, who was about to run over to see her in joy, realized that he could hear a sound from that direction and hurriedly activated his cloak of stealth.

The presence wasn’t just one person.

Several people’s footsteps soon reached the wooden sword.

One of the group looked down at the wooden sword and held it in one hand.

And then he started to slowly approach Leon.

Leon looked at their unfamiliar faces and realized that they were not from the Widia School.

The magical clothing he was wearing had a completely unfamiliar pattern engraved on it.

‘I think I saw it at the exchange event… … .’

“Um, I think I felt a presence from this direction.”

“Is that so? I didn’t feel it… …By the way, why did you pick up that wooden sword?”

The man holding the wooden sword even used searching magic, and answered when there were no problems.

“I’ve been wasting everything so far, but this is the only thing I’ve picked up.”

A middle-aged man who was swinging a wooden sword here and there clicked his tongue.

“Hey, tsk. I thought I’d get something, but this is… … .”

“Couldn’t the rare owner have given it to another golem? Like the sword the armor golem was holding?”

“This kind of useless piece of trash wooden sword?”

“Wasn’t it an artifact?”

“I was going to give you a sword if you had the ability, even though it was a worthless sword… … Take it.”

“Okay. What… … Do I still look like that idiot from my apprentice days?”

“Look at that little brat. Who raised and raised you?”

A middle-aged man threw a wooden sword carelessly.

The wooden sword bounced on the floor a few times before stopping in front of another door.

It looked pitifully abandoned.

‘You… were treated like that.’

Leon realized why the wooden sword was in front of the other door.

Other wizards also picked it up a few times, but then realized it had no abilities and threw it away.

“There’s really no one here. What is it? I definitely heard someone.”

“Hey, aren’t you nervous?”

“It’s natural to be nervous when exploring such ruins.”

The middle-aged man shook his head.

“You still have a long way to go. Think about what those Widia bastards did right now. We’re in a position where we’re being stabbed in the back of the head with our eyes open. It can’t hurt to be careful.”

“Well, didn’t you say you’ve already fought twice in different areas?”

“Of course. Those kids with no morals. They’ll probably fight every time they meet.”

“It’s a headache. Isn’t the exploration also being delayed?”

“That’s because there’s a troublesome magic circle hiding underground… … .”

The group of five, including the middle-aged man, passed Leon and looked into the training room where Leon was caught in the magic circle.

But nothing happened until they turned around at the door and looked inside.

‘Why… isn’t the moving magic circle activated?’

While Leon was thinking about the reason, they went down the stairs.

Leon waited for a while longer before releasing his hiding spot and taking up his wooden sword.

“Whew… … .”

It took a long time, but I finally got my hands on the wooden sword.

‘Things went better than I expected… … .’

From what I heard from other members of the group, it seemed like the exploration of the ruins was still in progress.

It would be best for Leon to be discovered naturally, rather than suddenly appearing alone in Widia… … .

‘It’s not good to be too greedy.’

Even if he suddenly appeared in Widia through teleportation, there was a plausible excuse called the moving magic circle.

In fact, the reason I suddenly entered Rare was because of the moving magic circle, and the reason I was suddenly moved to the training room was also because of the moving magic circle.

Since I was planning to use the rare excuse to say I had awakened the magic anyway, I needed the audacity to deal with it all at once.

The moment Leon finished his thoughts and raised his body while holding the wooden sword.

A large number of people were heard approaching from the opposite direction from where the group of middle-aged men had disappeared.

In the blink of an eye, they were close enough for Leon to see.

The faces of those flying towards Leon at full speed were pale.

“Hey, if you don’t want to be killed by the witch, run away now!”

Before Leon could even react.

That was literally a fleeting moment.

Without any warning, a black fireball struck the people who were running towards them.

Kwaaang-

A huge black fireball exploded on the spot.

The aftermath also reached Leon’s location.

Leon’s clothes were flapping wildly in the wind.

Leon was suffocated by the wave of magical power thicker than the hot air.

The magic appeared without any warning.

‘No sound!’

He is at least a mystery level wizard.

Leon immediately grabbed the teleportation scroll and injected magic into it.

“… .”

But the flow of magic power suddenly stopped in the middle.

When Leon raised his head, he saw a woman with long black hair appearing out of nowhere.

The woman, one eye covered by hair, held up her palm toward Leon.

‘Magic interference?’

This is impossible even for beginners… … .

Leon’s thoughts could not continue any longer.

Leon instinctively touched the orb with his finger.

Then Leon disappeared from that place without a trace.

At the same time, black flames rose from the floor.

“… .”

The blazing fire died down in an instant.

The woman’s head tilted to the side as she took back her magic and stared at the spot for a while.
