Hector's Star.

genius wizard.

The modifiers used to describe Edwin Hector proved his special place in the life he lived.

I also had confidence in myself.

And the last few years.

Confidence was slowly eroded.

When he met Roman Dmitry on the Southern Front, he faced an insurmountable wall, and the fact that he couldn't do anything after discovering the benign beast that starved Hector left a deep sense of helplessness.

Even in such circumstances, Edwin Hector did not stop.

He did the best he could, such as whipping violently, practicing magic at the Tower of Heaven, and forming an alliance with Roman Dmitry.

By the way.

There was an incident where even the slightest bit of confidence collapsed.

In the all-out war between Kronos and Dmitry, the Kronos Empire mobilized a whopping 8 circles of wizards.

' The level of the 8th circle is an opponent I can't fight no matter how hard I try and how much time I spend in training for decades. Kronos Empire. It is such a monster that I wish to take revenge on, and Roman Dmitry, who had fought fiercely on the Southern Front, was so advanced that he did not dare even look at it.'

It was strange.

The master of the heavens praised Edwin Hector's development and used the expression 'genius of the century', but when he looked up at the sky with his head up, there were beings that were inaccessible.

Roman Dmitry and Hector's enemy, Cronus, who defeated him.

By reaching out to reach them, they have already reached a state of outer space.

succumbed to evil

messed it up

Investing all his time except for political activities, Edwin Hector devoted himself to magical development.

Then one day.

Edwin Hector witnessed a shocking sight.

swordsmanship presentation.

In the figure of Roman Dmitry, who was talking to people about the "swordsmanship revolution," he saw the future of the magic world.

'Roman Dmitry described the brain as a top warfare. Forming a circle in the heart, which is the middle one, and creating an aura vessel near the lower navel, which is the lower front, can be interpreted as meaning that the upper front can also develop. If you unravel the secret of the top battle. This is sure to be a clue to a magical revolution.'

Magic.

How is the unknown power manifested?

By forming a circle in the heart and assimilating the mana of the circle with the mana of nature, it is possible to manipulate a disaster that is enough to be described as a natural disaster according to human intention.

Circles are not the only conditions required for a wizard in this process.

Extremely developed brain. If the circle is a channel of mana, the brain can handle the flow of excessive information and mana sucked into the head, so the magic of the high circle can be expressed only when the circle and the brain are both developed.

so that.

As the wizards increased their circles, their hearts and brains developed.

The reason people who are usually called geniuses become wizards is that brain development is directly related to magical talent.

blast furnace.

changed the idea.

If Roman Dmitry's theory meant the development of upper-level warfare, it could be taken as meaning that it was possible to increase the 'brain ability' acquired.

This was a really great hypothesis.

If the 3rd circle magician develops enough to be able to use the 5th circle magic, the magician will show the power to overwhelm the magicians of the same class.

It is not simply that the power of magic increases, but the complex synergy such as the speed of processing magic will surely lead to rapid development.

got into trouble

future future.

In order to take revenge on the Kronos Empire, he needed the strength to face monsters like Shephir.

finally.

Edwin Hector made a decision.

Wanting to make himself stronger, he left all his low self-esteem and went to Dmitry.

The time when the sun will rise in the middle of the sky.

Edwin Hector arrived in Dmitry, where Hoffmann had left.

* * *

A word to tell you about Sangsanjeon (上丹田).

It was a sudden development.

Even though it was an embarrassing situation for Roman Dmitry, he looked at Edwin Hector with a calm gaze.

"Dmitry and Hector are allies of the same kingdom. However, that alone is not enough reason to tell you about the top fight. Why do I have to go through such hard work?"

at that word.

Edwin Hector's eyes changed.

It was a rather unfavorable answer, but Roman Dmitry's remarks were clear he knew about the top battle.

if so.

This was an opportunity.

Edwin Hector said.

"I also agree that this is a reckless request. Although the concept of 'danjeon' was explained at the swordsmanship presentation, sharing information without payment is forcing Dmitry to make a unilateral sacrifice. Let me tell you straight up. I'm sure the top battle will be a clue to the magic revolution. If Hector shows meaningful results through information disclosure, we will disclose both the process and conclusions transparently. We will do everything we can to help Dmitry achieve the same things that Hector did."

did not hide the truth.

The hilt belonged to Dmitry.

From the standpoint of absolute Eul (乙), he was unaware that a frivolous negotiation would ruin the relationship.

"And although this is a secret, we are secretly working on moving the Magic Tower of the Sky to Hector. I'm not asking you to believe in Hector's abilities. The Tower of the Sky and I will unravel the secrets of the top battle and create meaningful results. Roman Dmitry. This war proved that the Kronos Empire possessed magical power beyond imagination. The Shefir's magic was devastating, and their limits were unfathomable. The kingdom unity also needs the strength to resist it. Hector and the Tower of Heaven. I will become an opponent against the wizards of Kronos."

The world was changing.

Kronos revealed his dirty ambitions, and the fact that he used black magic put the Tower of Heaven in danger.

No more.

I couldn't believe Kronos.

The relocation of the sky was good news for Dmitry.

Roman Dmitry said.

"Dmitry has a phoenix. Do you think they can't find out the secrets of the top battle on their own?

no. I appreciate Phoenix's abilities, but we don't have much time. A truce with the Kronos Empire is meaningless. In a situation where they do not know when they will reveal their ambition to conquer the continent again, I think that if we all work together, we can achieve results quickly. We will positively accept the addition of Phoenix Horseman to the process of researching the upper-level battle. Not to monopolize the results. We just want to work together and create a result that everyone will be satisfied with."

laughed

Edwin Hector was right.

It was the best I could choose from Eul's position to be honest.

Roman Dmitry stood up.

"Relocate. I have something to show you."

* * *

The place we arrived at was the tower.

As Roman Dmitry entered, the wizards of Phoenix quickly formed their ranks in amazement.

"Sir, what are you doing?"

It was Felix.

He confirmed the existence of Edwin Hector, and showed a questioning look.

"I want to use the magic dance floor. Take a seat and call Knox."

Okay.

No special explanation was needed.

Immediate fulfillment.

Roman Dmitry's orders were absolute, and whatever orders he gave, Felix and other wizards followed them without question.

To them, Roman Dmitry was a divine being.

Roman Dmitry rescued Phoenix, which had been collapsing in the Frankish Kingdom, and succeeded in rebuilding the tower.

Things went smoothly.

Following Felix's guidance, he moved to the magic gym, where Knox was waiting as he commanded.

"Forward to Knox."

Yes.

Knox came out.

Roman Dmitry said, looking at Edwin Hector, who had not yet grasped the situation.

"I heard that after Edwin Hector went into the sky, he attained enlightenment and entered the state of the 5th circle. Knox, like Edwin Hector, is a 5th circle wizard. If Knox is defeated through a magic match, we will reveal the secret of the top battle without any conditions."

Moment.

Edwin Hector showed a strange expression.

I couldn't understand Roman Dmitry's intentions.

However, what was certain was that he could not refuse this offer, even in order to find out the secret of the top battle.

blast furnace.

"I will accept Dalian."

Edwin Hector chose to win by himself.

above the gymnasium.

Edwin Hector looked at his opponent.

A battle between wizards and wizards.

In the same situation up to the circle, the success of the first attack was very important.

'The moment when you quickly gain the upper hand. It is difficult to overturn the situation with magic of the same class. You must interrupt the casting of the opponent with a magic that can be used quickly from the start, and bring the atmosphere to the next attack.'

It was a common sense decision.

Magic has many limitations.

The more powerful magic is used, the more complicated the casting process and calculation are required, so time is not allowed to use one's own magic leisurely in a one-on-one battle that competes with each other.

So, in the case of the War Mages, there were not many high-circle wizards.

They are the ones who effectively use the magic of the Zercircle, and Edwin Hector has learned the War Mage's method through his sufficient experience in warfare.

The circle shook.

At that moment, while watching the opponent with sharp eyes, Roman Dmitry sent a signal.

start!

Lightning Arrow.

don't fall

The lead was Edwin Hector.

At the same time as using 1 circle magic that can omit casting, Aqua Arrow was added to increase the destructive power of the attribute.

The power of water and electricity mixed to attack Knox.

Edwin Hector immediately expanded the circle, and quickly pursued a follow-up attack by casting high circle magic.

It was fast.

By the way.

"Fire Cannon."

Hwaak-

rumbling rumble.

Intense fire erupted.

Edwin Hector's eyes widened.

The fact that the opponent used the magic of the 5th circle without special casting meant that the casting process was omitted through Memorize.

It was surprising.

Before starting the match, it was agreed to use the 'Memorize Magic' only once, but from the beginning, I didn't know that they would try to gain the upper hand by demonstrating the 5th circle magic.

rather than this.

It was an opportunity.

Edwin Hector showed no memorization magic, but a simple improvisation.

"Stone wall."

Curl rumble.

Existing casting is omitted.

Transformed basic elemental magic into a wall.

Forming an intangible power such as fire into a wall is magic of 4 circles or more, but the stone wall was simple enough that casting was not required.

It did not block the opponent's magic.

A stone wall was formed on the land where he was standing, and Edwin Hector rose into the air in an instant.

fault-

It was a horrifying sight.

change of thinking.

Without much effort, it made the magic of Nox useless by going beyond the flames.

Quang!

rumbling rumble.

The flame exploded.

The stone wall melted at once, but Edwin Hector seized the opportunity.

"Memorize, Thunder Cannon."

chewy.

supportive.

past experience.

Edwin Hector met a monster like Roman Dmitry on the battlefield.

He realized that he could do nothing by simply believing in the destructive power of magic, and he learned the improvisation of the war mages through continuous experience.

It can be a dangerous way.

Even a slight misstep may not be able to avoid Knox's magic, but Edwin Hector, who gained the upper hand in 'Memorize' with a bold decision, seized the opportunity to counterattack.

A battle between wizards.

The difference in circles was absolute.

Nox, who had already used Memorize, had no way to block the 5th Circle Thunder Cannon from the front.

The only way is to blink.

It's enough to move through space, but knowing that, I chose the Thunder Cannon that can attack quickly.

Blink is not omnipotent.

It also obviously requires time for 'casting', and Knox immediately after using Memorize has no choice but to counter with the magic of the Zer Circle.

That was the dilemma.

Due to the difference in circles, Knox will face a situation where a single mistake can lead to defeat.

I wasn't sure of victory.

but.

I thought I had the upper hand.

Edwin Hector immediately prepares the next magic, but witnessed an unbelievable sight.

"Fire Cannon."

Hwareuk.

rumbling rumble.

Knox.

Another 5th circle magic appeared.

When electricity and flames collide violently, Edwin Hector reacted in dismay.

' What?!'

Did you use memoize?

It wasn't.

For that reason, the people around him were not agitated.

Then, the only possibility is that it was cast, and it was realistically impossible to cast so quickly.

created magic.

He had no intention of admitting defeat.

He risked his life for the future of Hector.

That moment.

"The battle is already over."

right behind you.

Knox appeared.

Not only did he use the magic of the 5th circle in succession, he also had the power to preoccupy the back with Blink.

It was frustrating.

I couldn't accept reality.

Edwin Hector repeatedly trained bloody in the Tower of the Sky, and at least he was confident that he would not be pushed by wizards of the same class.

However, this was a very overwhelming result.

As Edwin Hector looked at Knox with a grimly contorted face, Roman Dmitry's voice pierced his ears.

"Edwin Hector. Dmitry has already applied the theory of 'top warfare' to magic."

There was a crack in his expression.

It was shocking.

Dmitry had already occupied the unknown territory he thought he had discovered, and had even planted a flag.

"I will ask you again. Why do I have to go through the trouble of telling Hector the secrets of the top battle?"
