The Devil Who Grants Wishes

108 – Runaway (5)

“Ugh…”

Fortunately, because the magicians whose desires were amplified were only interested in the divine position, Elias, who was stabbed with a silver sword, was able to preserve his body intact.

Although his lungs were punctured and his whole body was trampled on, it was not such a critical situation as Elias had suffered numerous wounds.

‘Crest… Enchantment… I prepared very well…’

After taking out the silver sword embedded in his chest, Elias is slightly astonished at the immense density of magic contained in the silver sword.

There is a concentration of magic on a truly incredible level.

Starting with the stealth function that blocks the outflow of magical power, magic that concentrates all destructive power at the tip of a sword, magic that converts the owner’s mana into destructive power and sharpness, and even made of silver, it absorbs mana well and is very good for engraving magic patterns. Since it’s easy, you can engrave a huge amount of magic.

Elias, who was puzzled that the mana shield spread all over his body did not work properly, finally came to understand after seeing the silver sword.

He had always been careful of powerful attacks from a distance, but this close up, and even with magic that only absorbs mana and concentrates destructive power at one point, Elias feels a sense of shame as he looks back on his complacent behavior.

“These… bastards…”

Elias, who distorted his face, gave strength to his hand to crush the silver sword with one hand and cast a recovery spell on the chest with the hole in the other hand.

Healing magic hasn’t been polished that much, but Elias is still a great mage, and even if he falls short, there is no magic that Elias can’t cast completely.

Elias throws away all the blood, internal bleeding, and blood loss in his lungs, and tries to move to roughly seal the wound and deal with them as soon as possible, but soon hears a very horrifying voice.

“…is this right?”

Elias’ entire body froze.

Like a mouse with a cat in front of it, Elias, unable to move except to wiggle his fur, stops casting healing magic and slowly turns his head to look at the owner of the voice.

“you…”

Looking at Lucia, Elias can’t decide what to say.

It was literally a demon with only the energy that was clearly felt. And that’s not an ordinary goofy devil, but an incredibly powerful devil.

But… what catches her eye is a truly beautiful aristocratic girl. The white skin that you can guess that it has never been exposed to sunlight, the soft and beautiful hands that suggest that you have not gone through any hardships, and the dress that even the most unsightly person can see that it is of the highest quality.

“Are you a demon? No… a follower?”

But Elias is not fooled by such outward appearances.

For Elias, who had met Faust not too long ago, it was impossible for Elias not to notice Faust’s energy radiating from Lucia’s whole body.

“Huh…”

Lucia lets out a slight nasal sound as she sees her as if she knows her father very well.

Lucia fully expected that they would know each other well, as Elias was the one to whom her father handed over the throne, but seeing the outcome of the affair right in front of her eyes was a very different story.

Lucia, who up until now hadn’t said much since it was essential to her father’s plan, is now a little upset.

“Looks like you’re hurt. Now, stay still.”

But Lucia doesn’t show that emotion outwardly.

This woman must be an important cog in Dad’s plans.

Lucia, unable to blow away her father’s dreams with personal feelings, decides to heal Elias.

“No, I can—what…”

Seeing the mana wrapped in Lucia’s hands and realizing what she was up to, Elias tried to decline, but it was too late.

Elias, who had already been seriously injured from the moment Lucia made up her mind to heal Elias, had no choice.

The blood that had already been spilled floated in the air and entered Elias’ wound, and along with it, the internal bleeding blood also went back into the intestines, and the torn flesh and severed lungs were restored.

When the wound is healed, there are no scars, and the clothes torn by the knife are also back to their original state.

As if the reality of being stabbed with a silver sword hadn’t happened at all, everything that proved that Elias had been stabbed had disappeared.

“This, this…”

“Lucia-sama!! Shouldn’t you go first—- Elias-sama?!”

The shouts of other wizards disturbed Elias, who wondered whether what he had just seen was right, and whether it really happened in reality.

Seeing Elias lying on the floor, the wizards panic and try to support her, but Elias is unaware of the wizards who freely touch him.

I just keep thinking about the unbelievable things that just happened.

‘Obviously… the magic circle of light and the magic circle of darkness intersect at the same time… and… kuh…’

Despite clearly seeing the magic circle wrapped around Lucia’s arm, Elias, who is unable to properly understand the structure of the magic circle, feels frustration and emotions that he has never felt before.

Xinyu could have made an excuse just because he had a different field of study, but this is clearly the realm of magic.

But Lucia doesn’t care much about Elias’ feelings.

I just hope that Elias will hurry up and move according to his father’s will.

Pareus-

‘…!?’

At the moment when I was drawing a defensive magic circle while moving carefully so as not to get caught in the Mage Tower’s guard system, I suddenly felt goosebumps all over my body.

It’s an emotion I’ve never felt since I possessed Faust’s body, so it’s no joke.

It feels as if instinct urges you to act quickly, sending an adrenaline rush through your body, saying that if you stay still, you will lose your life.

What the heck… what is this-

‘…deity?’

Doubts don’t last long.

It was because the anti-crime magic that had been carved into the crystal of the demon’s god, fearing that it might be stolen, activated and announced the crisis.

…What is it, could it be that Elias couldn’t stand it and really put his hands on God?

This is embarrassing, but I must keep my words—

[Dad, look at me quickly.]

[Lucia? What the hell… Hmm.]

But even such hasty speculation is quickly defeated.

After hearing Lucia’s words and sharing Lucia’s senses, there was a terrible scene unfolding in front of my eyes that was so hard to say.

Obviously, the place I can see beyond Lucia’s eyes is the laboratory where I was summoned before, but literally everywhere is full of red bloodstains. It’s to the point where you mistakenly think it’s a different space for a moment.

And… Elias was the one who created such a horrific sight.

…What’s going on, what the hell.

[If you don’t release it right away, I’ll kill you!!]

[Wouldn’t it kill me if I put it down!? If that’s the case… I’ll just solve my inquisitive mind right before I die!!]

Elias is confronting the one holding the crystal of divine power in his hand.

I couldn’t imagine that the crystal that Belial and I had formed would be ruined, but it was true that the crystal was in danger.

Well, that’s why the anti-crime magic sounded.

I roughly knew

For now, you have to stop using defensive magic and quickly go inside and tie the knot properly—

At that moment, the sky flashes brilliantly.

No, can this be called splendid?

As if the sun had risen right in front of my eyes, as if a huge sun had swallowed up all the blue sky, a truly enormous amount of light was falling down on Eilyu Festival.

Because the light is literally pouring down from all sides, the shade is not created well.

The carefully created shade shows a stark contrast with the exterior, which is so pitch-black that it is receiving a lot of light.

“what?!”

“Eyes… kuh…!”

“Attack from the outside?! What is the Mage Tower doing without activating defense magic!?”

The wizards who were walking around the streets of Eilyuze were also very confused and did not know what was going on.

Whether it was an external attack or some kind of natural phenomenon, there are literally all sorts of speculations.

But… I know what this is.

It was an overwhelming amount enough to fill the sky, and a divine power strong enough to dispel Faust’s demonic energy.

The divine power and feeling I felt in the islands of the Aquileia Empire is exactly the same, and it reminds me of one fact.

It is Serapia’s intervention.

support support

The mana accumulation at the top of the mage tower reacts to too strong divine power and causes resonance.

It trembles with a strange sound, like a glass about to be broken by receiving a sound of too high a frequency.

The boundary between the outside and the inside of the mana cluster was blurred, and at the same time, the divine power of Serapia and the mana of the mana cluster were mixed.

The work progresses so fast.

No way, that way-

Kwaaa!!

But it’s already too late.

5 seconds after Cerapia’s divine power filled the sky, my vision was filled with only the complex of mana and divine power.
