Standing on the other side facing the five people, after the black-haired boy finished speaking, a silent silence enveloped everyone.
Facing the mysterious wizard of unknown origin, everyone was a little helpless.
(...As expected of 'him', can you really feel it...)
For a being of that level, it must not be difficult to detect problems in one's own magic power.
Seven years ago, the changes caused by the "Sirius Jade" still have a considerable impact on Zeira to this day.
Her magic source that was fused with black magic energy did not gradually evolve into an "anti-spiritual crystal" as expected, but instead became some form of existence in between.
Although extremely powerful energy can be felt within it, not only is this energy not easy to use, it is also extremely unstable in nature.
This kind of change, which could not be said to be good or bad, forced Zella to treat it with caution and explore it slowly by herself.
Of course, this does not mean that Zella cannot use magic. Since she can now use magical skills such as fire and flying, it means that she has found a solution.
——[Second Magic Source].
To put it simply, it is to turn one's potential abilities into a state that can be controlled independently.
Theoretically, every magician has something like a container that determines the limit of his own magic power, which is the [First Magic Source]. And when the magic power in the [First Magic Source] is exhausted, many magicians
I can still use magic under strong will and enter a state like 'explosive seed', just with the help of [Second Magic Source].
It is precisely because Zella knows the existence of this potential ability that, with the stimulation of the fused mutant magic power source and her conscious research and guidance, she can use magic without hindrance as she does now.
but......
(The discovery of the magic power problem is not the most critical thing. The most important thing now is to solve this 'encounter' first...)
Looking at the kind-faced black-haired young man in front of her, Zella's expression was a little uncertain.
It wouldn't be a problem if the other party left like this, but now, this guy seems to be a little interested in the girl who also has "black magic", which is not a good sign.
For now, she is not ready to deal with these top-level combatants.
(If a fight really breaks out...it's possible to escape unscathed...or should we use 'that'...)
Measuring the gap between the two parties, the girl came to a conclusion that was not optimistic.
I originally thought that the "world" had changed so much and time had been completely messed up, so they shouldn't have met.
Who knew that this scene that gave Zella a headache would still happen.
But soon, she no longer had to worry about what attitude she should take to face the legend in front of her.
Because someone couldn't help but make a 'decision' for her.
"...You've been mumbling some confusing words since the beginning. Hey! That guy over there! If you want to leave, hurry up! Or are you planning to cause trouble? In that case, just give me an explanation quickly!
"
Palms and fists collided together, and the blond young man directly adopted a very 'treasure hunter style' solution.
What he couldn't stand the most was this confrontation, and the weird aura on the other party made him very uncomfortable.
Guys with a single warp are always very sensitive in certain places.
What's more, they now have the magician's "backing", so Yuri's confidence is also strong.
(That... idiot...!)
He couldn't bear to stare and covered his forehead. This guy had no idea who he was facing now, and he actually dared to provoke and provoke him so casually.
It is true that the ignorant are fearless.
Wouldn't it be better to let others quietly leave behind a mysterious image with a story and then leave? This time I will really be dragged to death by him...
"What's wrong, Zella?"
When he found that his friend suddenly looked like he had no love for life, and then became like he was dead, Mabius, who also didn't know who was facing him, didn't show that much nervousness.
Although the boy's condition made her very curious, her friends were more important!
"Ha... I just feel like life is really full of ups and downs..."
Adjusting her state, Zella has decided to accept 'reality'.
She is lucky to have such a teammate.
Fortunately, the black-haired boy is still in a relatively normal state of mind at this time and is not as extreme as he will be in the future.
He had no intention of fighting in the first place, and after hearing Yuri's words to drive people away, he put away the smile on his face and turned around.
"...I'm sorry, it's probably because I haven't talked to anyone for a long time, which makes me a little happy."
"It's really time for me to leave. I'm sorry for bringing you such a bad scenery. I hope we won't see each other again..."
He sighed softly and headed back the way he came. The young man's back looked indescribably lonely.
"..."
Looking at the result of the thunder and rain, Yuri and the three of them were speechless.
"Then - um?"
The kind-hearted Mavis opened her mouth and seemed to want to say something, but was stopped.
He looked at his friend who was standing in front of him in confusion, only to find that the brown-haired girl just shook her head solemnly.
After finding a new camp and packing up, in a somewhat dull atmosphere, the topic returned to what happened before.
The one who spoke was Warlord. The long-faced man felt that the man just behaved a little strangely and he probably had no ill intentions towards them.
"do not ask me."
Pulling his collar, Precht didn't seem to want to answer this question.
Anyway, he wasn't the one chasing people away from the exit.
"...?"
Feeling that the eyes were focused on him again, someone felt that this was a great injustice.
"It's my fault again?!"
After biting off the food on his hand, Yuri pointed the twig at the brunette girl on the other side who didn't look very interested.
"Wasn't Zera the same as me just now?! She must have thought that what I did was right and that's why she stopped Mavis!"
Thinking that even if this was the blame, he couldn't bear it alone, Yuri quickly found himself a 'companion'.
What he didn't even expect was that the girl he usually didn't deal with didn't refute this time.
"...Zera?"
The firelight was reflected in the girl's pupils, and it wasn't until Mavis, who was sitting next to her, called softly that her attention was drawn back.
"...Do you know who the wizard was just now?"
Sitting quietly in the wheelchair that had returned to its original state, Zera's words that she revealed later made everyone present feel as if their hearts were tied.
"Zerf, that's that man's name."
"——!!!!!!"
The scene seemed to be still for a moment. The feather-eared girl covered her mouth, the stern young man remained motionless, the blond idiot didn't even realize the food in his hand fell to the ground, and the long-faced man also opened his mouth in a daze.
No one will not know the meaning of this person. Even his name is taboo on the mainland. He is recognized as the only strongest person in the history of the magic world, possessing invincible power that can almost destroy the world.
Such a terrifying existence actually just passed by them?!
"You're not joking, right? Didn't you say that he has fallen asleep or died?"
After finally regaining his composure, Precht, who had always been calm, now became restless.
"Ah! Could it be! It's the 'Black Magic of Anxeram'?!"
Mabis, who quickly thought of something, screamed out in surprise, and connected the strange sight he saw before with the legend, and everything made sense.
"...Yes, he did not die after being cursed. He has been wandering around the continent for hundreds of years."
The coldness and uneasiness caused by Zella's words swept through everyone. According to their 'common sense', this was really a terrible fact.
"...I always feel like I have saved a life...haha..."
On this point, Precht and Warlord rarely share the same sentiment.
