‘A lot came.’

Leo looked around.

Bodies of monsters scattered around.

And soldiers wandering around picking up byproducts.

It was a sight I had seen over the past month.

I don’t know how many monsters I caught while rolling in the front line.

Thanks to this, they were able to advance farther from the walls.

‘But I still can’t see any traces of Charpeng.’

Even if Leo ran this way and that far alone, there was a limit to breaking through the army of these numerous monsters.

If it was that easy, Logan, the Black Tower Master, wouldn’t have asked him for help.

Of course, a lot was gained.

Although Leo was a third-class wizard, he lacked a lot of practical experience compared to other wizards of the same class.

Even so, the time he first entered magic was absolutely short.

‘One of the things I really needed was real combat experience, and that worked out.’

Simply exploring and understanding magic doesn’t improve your skills.

This kind of practical experience will be accumulated one by one, and it will help you break through and climb easily when you face a wall later.

“Lowering. Are you okay?”

Selisse approached Leo, who was lost in thought, and asked.

“I want you to be so quiet… Aren’t you overdoing it?”

“no. I was just thinking about it for a moment.”

Leo smiled and waved his hand.

However, Celise did not let go of her worried expression.

“How about dying soon? You have come too far.”

last month.

Leo always played an active role in the front line.

Even though he was a royalty and a wizard, he always went ahead, dealing with monsters and protecting his soldiers.

I wonder if he even received a medal?

However, Celise, who knew that Leo’s physical strength was weak from the beginning, was only worried.

“I was thinking of going back soon.”

Leo nodded.

The Charpen search operation was steadily progressing.

We’ve dealt with a lot of monsters, and we’re going deep into the west too, so sooner or later we’ll be able to find traces of him.

Thinking so, it was the moment Leo tried to turn around.

-ping!

There was the sound of something shooting through the air.

Selise’s eyes changed and she quickly raised her sword and guarded Leo’s face.

“Lowering!”

What flew in was a dagger engulfed in red energy.

-bang!

As she blocked the dagger, the sound of a bomb exploded and Celise was thrown backwards.

-ping! ping!

Then several more daggers flew aiming at Leo.

– Damn it!

A barrier of ice rose around Leo, and a dagger of red energy struck the barrier.

-bang!

– Kwak!

Surprisingly, the dagger broke through the ice barrier.

It’s a little slow, but if you hit it, it’s a fatal situation.

However, Leo did not move.

Instead, a silver magic circle gently floated around the body, and a white barrier rose.

Frost Breath’s self-defense had been activated.

-bang!

– Quaang!

The dagger crossed the first barrier, but it couldn’t break the self-defence.

Leo glanced at the dagger on the floor and cast his gaze forward.

“Is it there?”

A light flashed in Leo’s silver eyes.

His talent for seeing and tracking mana exploded.

The red magic power wrapped around the dagger.

Leo reached out his hand in pursuit of the traces still left in the air.

– Kwajijijik!

Several spears of ice created in an instant flew away into the forest.

There was a sound of something being torn, and after a while someone appeared.

“Hmm. I heard that there is a wizard who can handle a lot of monsters, so I came here. I never thought it would be a kid like you.”

A man with short black hair and pale skin.

What stood out were his red lips and the flashing fangs visible between them.

“vampire… .”

Leo muttered.

“yes. human. Have you ever seen a vampire?”

“What is your name?”

“Are you going to make a full name? You are quite calm.”

The vampire shrugged and smiled.

“My name is Dio. you know it’s an honor That I told people my name.”

Vampire Dio.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t the Charpeng I was looking for, but it didn’t matter.

It’s enough to capture this guy and dig up information.

‘Because there’s a high probability that it’ll be with Charpeng.’

Leo stood still, motionless, staring at him.

Dio smiled when he saw that.

“Why is that? Did your body freeze when you saw the great race right in front of you? or not… .”

Dio raised his hand.

Long, growing nails protected her head.

-visor!

A sword swung down on top of him.

“Hap… !”

– Kagagak!

It was Selisse who swung her sword at him with her blonde hair flowing.

Suddenly, she ran and attacked D.O!

“Do you believe in this human?”

“Chit!”

As the surprise attack went futile, Celise stepped back, flipping over in the air.

And before I knew it, soldiers surrounded it.

“Lowering! Are you all right!”

“No need to fuss.”

Leo raised his hand to the excited soldiers.

Then I looked at D.O.

He was calm on the outside, but on the inside he was constantly calculating.

‘My close combat ability is better than Sellies. I don’t know about my magical abilities yet, but since I’m a vampire, I’ll do more than the basics… .’

Moreover, since it is an adult vampire, the amount of mana must be higher than this one.

In the long run, the odds of winning are low.

If you’re going to do it, a short-term showdown.

It was also the best time to aim for now when he still looked at himself easily.

When the thought was over, Leo moved straight away.

– Damn it!

I created two ice arrows in the air and scattered them.

The ice arrow fired with a howitzer bent back and forth as if trying to make it impossible to read its trajectory.

“You are doing cute things.”

D.O just laughed in place, as if it wasn’t worth avoiding.

Ice Arrow was crushed by Dio’s fingernails.

As the scattered ice powder spread through the air, some of it stuck to the hem of Dio’s clothes.

-bang!

Leo lifted his leg and slammed it down on the floor.

At the same time, mana was sucked out like the ebb tide.

[Frost Breath – Crashing Ice]

Ice spikes sprouted from the soles of Leo’s feet.

A series of soaring ice spikes followed a straight path toward Dio.

– Damn it!

It was a small ice thorn near Leo, but when it got close to Dio, it turned into a large thorn that was taller than him.

“It’s like ice!”

D.O laughed and clenched his fists.

Like the ice arrow from before, it was an idea to break it all at once.

However, the impression soon hardened.

“what is this. light properties… ?”

What I feel from the approaching ice is a very unpleasant aura. Feel the light properties.

To feel the light attribute in ice magic.

Dio’s complexion changed.

Even if you break it, you will inevitably cause damage to yourself due to the effect of the attribute.

“Kuh… !”

Only then did D.O hurriedly move his body to avoid it.

I backed away and got out of the path of the ice spikes.

– Damn it.

But at that moment, the ice trail changed direction and followed Dio.

“What, what is this! Why do you follow me!”

I was frightened and tried to avoid it, but each time it turned and continued to chase the ice thorns.

Dio’s embarrassed eyes touched the sleeves of his clothes.

There were ice crystals formed when I broke the ice arrow earlier, but they were emitting strange waves.

Only then did I notice

That the thorns are chasing these ice crystals.

“Damn it! this!”

D.O unconsciously looked at Leo.

I see the expressionless little boy’s face.

I never thought I would induce and use magic in this way.

I tried to escape somehow, but I came close to where I was already going.

And soon, D.O.’s eyes were stained with bewilderment and were instantly covered in ice.

– Damn it!

Dio was trapped in the ice that rose more than 3m.

Surprisingly, his eyes widened and his expression was vivid.

Seeing that, Leo muttered.

“This child. It’s not just ice, it’s light ice. It will hurt a little.”

The reason why he confidently went hunting for Charpeng was because of this light-ice attribute.

It was a great advantage to deal with the dark races like vampires.

“Sigh… .”

Leo let out a sigh involuntarily and staggered.

Sellies came quickly and helped her.

“Lowering!”

“It’s fine. It’s just that I’m dizzy because I consumed too much mana in an instant.”

“… Did you kill him?”

“yes. maybe.”

Selly asked curiously.

“But lower. Wasn’t your main purpose to freeze that ice-crawler, not attack him?”

When I first saw the ice thorn, I thought it would pierce Dio.

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Judging by the fact that Dio was trying to avoid it, it seems that he judged that way too.

However, Leo’s magic did not inflict even the slightest scratch on his exterior.

Instead, they just locked him in ice.

“right. Vampires have hard skin. It also has great replayability. There’s a high chance you won’t die with a simple hit.”

It was for a simple reason.

If you can’t subdue him with this one shot, this side is dangerous for the subsequent counterattack.

Physical attacks seemed difficult to kill in one shot, so they were locked in ice altogether.

“Would you mind tidying up that guy? Just cut your throat with the ice.”

Since he’s frozen and can’t resist, he should be able to take care of the vitals with one shot.

“All right.”

Celise nodded and walked away with her sword.

and that moment.

– Great.

– Chii Ik!

The ice cracked and steam rose through it.

“!!”

“!?”

Leo and Celise’s eyes were stained with astonishment.

The two raised their hands to try something, but it was too late.

-Wavelength window!

The ice thorns shattered and Dio reappeared.

“Huh… Heo-eok… .”

D.O gasped for breath with a rough expression on his face.

Steam rose from his body and water dripped from his body, but only his eyes were burning with anger.

“How did you do that… ?”

Leo muttered involuntarily.

The crashing ice melted perfectly.

It showed all the power it could produce in a short amount of time.

Isn’t it even the light ice property?

Even if he was an adult vampire, it was unreasonable for him to escape so easily.

“Khook. Hoo-wook. The kid is quite talented. Could it be that it’s ice-type magic similar to that of Karst the Great? But magic isn’t something only you can use.”

“!”

Leo knew what he was talking about.

“Blood Magic… is it?”

“Huh true. Is there anything this bastard doesn’t know?”

Dio smiled and nodded.

“Yeah, that’s right. From the moment I was trapped in ice using blood magic, the blood flow in my body rapidly increased and heat was released.”

Even if the outside was frozen and unable to move, the inside was not.

A vampire’s defense is not weak enough to freeze internal organs and blood.

In that gap, Dio used blood magic to increase the speed of the blood circulating through the body and raise the body temperature.

It melted the ice and created a gap to escape.

“Although my body is speechless because of this bloody light attribute ice… Shall we start the second round?”

Dio began to approach me, turning his shoulders around.

Before I knew it, my rough breathing had returned to normal.

As a racial characteristic, it had great resilience.

Leo gritted his teeth.

‘This isn’t good… .’

It was difficult to fight for a long time because I had just hit a considerable amount of mana.

The odds of winning were not so high with Sellies and the soldiers.

Of course, I had no intention of giving up.

Once you do battle, something will come up.

Leo’s silver eyes rolled violently.

“Why don’t you try something like before, kid?”

D.O. knows that he has the upper hand, so he walks away with a smirk.

However, as if he would no longer be vigilant, his eyes were calmly burning.

an imminent situation.

– Took. Degur.

At that time, a round object rolled at D.O’s feet.

“Well?”

The moment he looked down because he wanted something like this, red light started to explode from the small marble.

– Kwaaang!

What followed was a huge explosion.

Power so strong that it could wipe out the entire space around D.O!

Leo rubbed his eyes in confusion.

he knows what that is

Arcane magic that once interfered and changed its direction.

“It’s a blood bomb… .”

But why does it appear here?

As I was thinking that, I heard a familiar voice.

“oh. little gentleman. Will we meet again here?”

Red hair shining brightly in the sun.

Wearing high heels and an old-fashioned aristocratic outfit that didn’t suit the dense forest, she approached with her long straight hair flying.

“ha ha ha.”

Leo laughed involuntarily.

‘driving me crazy.’

How did this woman come out of here?

Whether or not she knew Leo’s complex mind, she had a beautiful smile.

“Hmm. They say children grow up quickly. You grew taller while I couldn’t see you?”

“… The rice served at the palace was delicious.”

“It looks good. As I thought, he will definitely become a handsome man when he grows up.”

Countess Hermery.

She was looking at Leo with a bright smile.
