Quad deud deuk-

The durability of the magic sword exceeded my expectations.

Although it is magic, the ice spear has a certain mass, and when I defend it with a magic sword, the spear begins to split.

‘It reminds me of red bean shaved ice.’

The ice spear breaks into very fine pieces and falls to the ground.

Perhaps because it was made of magical energy, the fine ice powder lost its shape and immediately began to disappear instead of immediately turning into water.

Because it’s black, it doesn’t cause an appetite.

Other than being surprised at the durability of my magic sword, I had only that much appreciation for his magic, but the wizard made a fuss.

“What, what! It’s a magic that easily penetrates ores containing magical power!”

The wizard was astonished to see the magic he had chanted over a long period of time turning into powder and scattering away.

I’ve always felt the look on the wizards’ faces when they saw their boasting magic blocked, but they act as if something like that should never have happened, but it happened right before their eyes.

“That’s all pride, you bastard.”

‘It looks bad.’

It makes me feel better to see his confident expression become distorted.

Of course, even if the result was my victory, there was no way the wizard who attacked us would back down gracefully.

“…I guess I should finish you off and take that magic sword to study. Now die.”

When the ice spear disappeared, the wizard looked helpless and turned his anger towards me, and this time he started chanting a spell and creating a spear similar to the one that pierced Noan.

‘Now is the time.’

At that moment, I threw the magic sword powerfully towards the guy.

As if he had already guessed this, he used his staff to control a battle doll to block his path.

Bye! Deeply-

“What!”

However, the magic sword breaks the battle doll and flies away, blowing off the guy’s arm.

“Ma, that doesn’t make sense. It’s a battle doll of a robber who can withstand the swords of knights… Wow!”

‘Why do these things have this obsession that whatever they predict must be correct? Why do they react so violently?’

The guy must have already confirmed the power of his magic just by breaking it, but he’s still full of pride.

“It’s good that the performance is reliable.”

I now know for certain the approximate location of the magic sword.

The current magic sword is at least comparable to the sword of knights. Rather, it exceeds it.

There is no longer any strength in my body. Now I’ve done everything I can.

It took time, and it hurt the wizard.

‘At this rate, the two of us can probably hold out for a while.’

While he was thinking about that, the wizard showed great concentration even with one of his arms cut off, and eventually completed the spell and threw it away.

“Priest! I’m going now!”

Hearing Noan’s voice running out to help Thistle, he is pierced by the ice spear.

——————————-

“Do you come to your senses?”

‘what.’

I was about to open my eyes, thinking I would have to endure the pain in my head again, but I heard Deshade’s voice first.

“What do you do?”

Deshade had me on his knee armor and was touching my body here and there.

I got goosebumps and quickly got up.

I don’t know if Deshade is a man or a woman, but when I see what he’s doing, it seems like he’s a man, but when I think of it that way, it makes me feel really bad because I think a man is touching my body.

However, when Deshade saw my expression, he tilted his head as if asking why and then explained.

“You said you were busy, but your soul couldn’t settle in your body and was tossing and turning, so I helped you a little.”

Now that I think about it, I don’t feel any pain in my head. There was no stiffness that inevitably came after resurrection.

“Did your presbyopia just go away?”

‘How much time has passed.’

So, I check the interval between my death and coming to my senses.

“He just ran out. As I was looking at it, I noticed that your body wasn’t a very neatly made piece of work, so I tried to make the balance of your body as similar to that of a human as possible.”

While listening to Deshade, check the condition of your body by stretching your arms and bending your knees.

Even when you wake up right away, your arms and legs are not stiff and move normally. In fact, it is much lighter than usual.

Deshade looks satisfied when he sees me, and then starts looking through the empty coffins again as if he is disappointed.

“But the body looks very bare because it only contains the soul. The build quality seems very sloppy. Is there one more? I think we could make it stronger if we had some materials.”

“I’ll bring it to you when I return safely. I will come after the fight is over. Thank you!”

Leave Deshade behind and go straight out of the cave.

It’s an unexpected harvest. Just by Deshade touching the spare body a little, the body’s specifications improved slightly.

‘He might be a more capable god than I thought. Now that I think about it, you said you were very interested in the human body. So is it possible?’

I was thinking that he was not a god, but rather a being with a bit of a perversion, but if he had this kind of ability, the story would be different.

A soul-sick body that cannot convert magic power into strengthening physical abilities.

With just a little bit of work, Deshade might be able to create a body that can contain magical power.

The soul vessel can be raised with an artifact. There is also a sword that contains that magical power.

In that case, if I build a body that can use magical power, I might be able to easily catch up to the level of a knight.

‘yes. There was something he said just now.’

‘Even though the core that goes into it is expensive, it is a luxurious doll that cannot be compared to yours.’

It reminds me of the ice wizard’s line.

‘nucleus.’

“Yes. I don’t know if it’s a magic core or a magic core, but it might be useful if I extract that core.”

Thinking that I had to quickly subdue the wizards and extract the doll’s core, I went out of the cave and looked around at the situation.

An ice wizard who mainly fights with a doll, sweating from behind and occasionally chanting small spells, perhaps because his arm was cut off.

In front of him was Noan, wielding a huge ax and chasing five battle dolls. He was fighting better than I thought.

The wizard seemed to be unable to move all the battle dolls at once and had given up on chanting, and was sweating coldly and preventing Noan from approaching.

As expected, I have had presbyopia for 5 years.

On the other hand, Thistle seems to be tired and all it can do now is roll over slightly and run away.

The fire wizard must have been tired, so he was now shooting flaming arrows, aiming at Thistle with pinpoint accuracy rather than using massive magic.

Since wizards ultimately use the magical energy within their bodies to collect and use magical energy scattered around them, as time goes by, they eventually consume the magical energy within their bodies little by little, and the total amount of natural magical energy they can handle gradually decreases.

Create a magic sword, hold it in your hand, and decide the order.

‘Should I help Noan finish off the guy with the severed arm first and then help Thistle?’

For a moment, I was thinking about prioritizing it, but Thistle caught my eye again.

Thistle was barely able to hit the burning arrow with his claymore.

Deshade’s sword is different from an ordinary sword and scatters arrows made of magic.

‘good.’

Run towards Thistle.

‘I feel sorry for Noan, but even if I die, Noan will be resurrected.’

The final thing to be weighed was whether or not there were lives. For now, I decided to help Thistle deal with the fire mage.

“Kk…! Was there still life left?”

The fire mage looked at me and swung his staff slightly slowly, creating a fire arrow.

‘There is something.’

I’ve already seen it once thanks to another wizard. It looks like he is using magic and summoning a doll.

It is humiliating to be treated the same way by a soul disease twice.

‘A battle doll remains nearby.’

He picks up a fist-sized stone from the ground while running and throws it while swinging his arm widely.

Wow!

As the wizard continues to chant, he becomes very confused and shoots an arrow of flame. At the same time, he pulls his staff towards himself, and a sound is heard in the air, and the stones stop.

An undamaged battle doll appears in the air.

There were still battle dolls hidden.

‘They say it’s expensive, but how many did you bring?’

Admiring the magicians’ money, he uses his magic sword to destroy the fire arrows flying at high speed.

Sereung-

Passs…

‘Are you sure. My physical ability has improved.’

As I swing the sword, I clearly feel that the state of Deshade’s body has changed compared to before.

It may be thanks to that that Noan is now easily pushing the battle dolls.

In the first place, they are operating the battle dolls manually.

Unless they move and fight on their own and use complex sword techniques, there is no way a soul soldier can be defeated by a sword controlled by a battle doll controlled by a wizard.

“Ugh!”

‘A doll that completely reveals its appearance.’

He simply throws away the sword that the battle doll throws at him by slightly opening his head, grabs his arm, cuts it off, and immediately plunges the sword into his head.

The arms and head of the battle doll, which had suffered little damage from magic, were shattered by the magic sword.

‘Pfft!’

However, perhaps because the core remains, the battle doll does not fall down, but instead wraps around its body and tightens it.

Without missing the opportunity, the fire wizard sticks his staff into the ground and raises his arms wide.

When I looked underneath the ground, a huge magic circle appeared on the floor. It is a magic circle of fire pillars that continued to attack Thistle.

When the wizard sees me unable to move because of the doll, he relaxes and sighs. He seems confident of victory.

“Stop disappearing now. He seems like a persistent guy.”

“You drew a lot of dirty pictures. Are you majoring in art?”

‘Where on earth did you prepare it?’

Look around.

Traces of the pillar of fire that Thistle escaped by running around are visible everywhere. About 40 of them.

And yet it still remained.

Even taking into account the fact that it took several hours for us to enter and exit, the number of magic circles was too large.

‘This is certain. Information was leaked.’

The wizard smiles maniacally and raises his arms.

When I saw that, I wondered if I had lost again this time, but suddenly the wizard looked behind me and the smile disappeared from his face.

‘what?’

And then something touched my ear.

“Run fast.”

Thistle’s voice sounded in my ear.

Thistle took advantage of the wizard’s viewing angle and approached before he knew it and struck the ground with his claymore.

Spell Breaker.

A sword filled with divine energy that erases magic shatters the magic circle.

Clang-

As soon as you see that, you move right away.

‘This is an opportunity!’

It’s a waste of time to express gratitude.

He hooks up the battle doll that is tied to his body and slams it on the floor, then runs with all his might holding the magic sword.

Clap-tap-tap-tap-!

The wizard’s expression looks frightened. But there’s no way I could come all the way here and take care of it.

“Heee!”

Phuuk-

When subduing an enemy, you must be sure.

In particular, you have to make sure that there is no harm to the wizard since you never know what he might do.

He pushes the contemplative wizard down, stabs the sword into his wrist, turns it, breaks the bone, and forces him to let go of the staff.

“There is no more insurance, right?”

“Quaaaagh!”

Wood-duk-

He pulls out the sword from his wrist and inflicts sword wounds on the man’s thigh and shoulder in turn, then picks up his staff, breaks it, and throws it far away.

“Let me handle it.”

“Please.”

Thistle approaches and presses the wizard to the floor. The wizards may have prepared something else. There must be restraint.

I leave the wizard to Thistle and look behind me.

“Presbyopia, are you okay?!”

Now, there is only one remaining wizard, who is worried about Noan and calls out loudly.

However, the answer that came back was Noan’s declaration that the battle was over.

“Finished. Brother.”

“What?”

“The Red Wizard died from a lot of blood. All the remaining dolls were broken.”

Noan is looking this way with a relieved expression.

When I looked behind Noan, who was holding an axe, I saw the corpse of the wizard lying on the ground and the battle dolls all in pieces.

I guess the snowball that blew off the wizard’s arm went rolling.

“Holy shit.”

Still. It was much faster than expected.

I quickly run over and look where the dolls were, but there is nothing left.

Noan, a strong 15-year-old spirit soldier, even completely destroyed the magic core that I was planning to retrieve.
