Secrets of the Totem (4)

Thunder Calling.

Theo chose the first magic that killed the sandworm in one shot.

Lightning falling from the sky without knowing it is not something you can notice first and prepare for.

‘The first is unconditionally fast and intense, so that the soul runs away. After that, surround them so they can’t escape… … .’

Theo had already decided on everything, even the order of magic linking.

Holding the artifact in my left hand, I gently closed my eyes.

The moment I synchronized with the artifact through hatchling synchro, various thoughts flashed through my head.

– Lightning is strong… … .

– Falling from the sky… … .

-thunderbolt.

-Fire… … .

There, he saw an old man who appeared to be an artifact maker.

A magic circle that is engraved stitch by stitch inside the artifact.

Maybe it’s because he’s already called Thunder Calling once, but the image of the magic circle has become ‘understanding’, albeit clumsily.

‘Maybe if I can look into it a little more, I don’t know if I can even use real magic.’

A little surprised by the unexpected fact,

Theo opened his eyes slowly.

At the same time, he pointed his other hand in the shape of a gun in the direction of Axion and his gang.

“Pour it out.”

Taang.

With a trigger-like action,

Quarreureung!

A bolt of lightning fell vertically from the sky.

* * *

The lightning strike was an instant.

Wow!

“Aagh!”

“What is this!”

“It’s a surprise, a surprise!”

Indented Crater.

A cloud of dispersing dust.

The affected candidates screamed, and some tried to come up with a countermeasure.

Quarreureung-

Kurr!

There was no way to prepare for the successive thunderbolts.

In the end, the test takers were so confused that they tried to scatter in all directions.

Morgan and Felix also jumped up from their seats in contemplation.

Everywhere was full of burnt smell, and because of the sparks, the place was turning into a sea of fire.

“This… … !”

“… … It seems that either Theo or Wellington smelled something.”

“I can’t. I have to escape from here and aim for a counterattack… … !”

But their thoughts did not last long.

It was because the lightning struck directly over their heads.

“Ouch!”

Wow!

In particular, Morgan, who tried to block the lightning by swinging his magical sword, was hit directly and was thrown back.

“knife! You stupid bastards! Let go of the sword! hurry!”

Felix, who was able to avoid the damage due to holding the sword one beat later than Morgan, screamed loudly.

In its current state, it was judged that the iron was the most dangerous.

Then, the test takers hurriedly threw away all their weapons, including the swords and armor they were holding.

Maehwa Palace, candidates from the Senate faction, as well as the Gyoryonghoe.

“These bastards… … ! What are we going to do if we let it go!”

Axion tried to lead them somehow, but his voice could not be heard by those who were already terrified.

Even at this moment, lightning, ice arrows, and fireballs were pouring down one after another.

Axion realized that it was the raiders’ goal to disarm them, but

It was already too late.

Roaring!

“Oh, no!”

“The road is blocked!”

“Damn it, where to go… … !”

just as expected.

The flame drew a large circle around the area, blocking the runners’ path.

The firepower was so great that I couldn’t even dare to break through.

“how should… … !”

It was a time when everyone was restless, rolling their feet.

Kurur… … !

The ground rumbled.

what?

Felix and the test takers reflexively looked down at their feet, and at that moment a hot wind blew from the ground.

And-

It exploded.

“… … !”

“… … !”

“… … !”

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!

As if a volcano had erupted, a pillar of fire soared, followed by various explosion magic.

＜Waterfall of Hot Wind＞, ＜Chain Explosion＞, ＜Sea of Fire＞, ＜Fire Thunder＞, ＜Fire Fiend＞, etc.

Artifacts that Theo had never used before… … They were triggered all at once.

Even with hatchling synchro, the power has been significantly enhanced!

aaagh!

Screams and screams rang out everywhere, but the sound of the explosion was so loud that everything was buried.

Moreover, the place is too circumstantial to escape.

The damage could only be greater.

Lightning in the sky,

flames on the ground.

It is a feast of hot air that is so hot that you wonder if it is winter mountain ranges where snowstorms occur all year round.

Abigyuhwan (阿鼻叫喚).

The words seemed just right.

And.

widely!

Theo sat quietly on top of the confused pile of rubble.

Axion stood in front of him, covered in blood.

Perhaps he managed to escape from the explosions and bombings, but one arm and leg were deformed.

“you… … you!”

shaking!

Axion’s fists trembled.

His face was distorted by half of the burns and was disfigured.

“If you tried to target me, you should know that you could be targeted too.”

Theo calmly let go of Axion’s anger.

“Even if you do this… … I think I’ll be safe… … ?”

“Are you properly checking what you’re doing?”

“… … !”

Are the idiots in the rose palace making fun of me?

Axion tried to shout something with an angry face.

Chow ah!

Before that, Drake’s blade swept hard across the nape of his neck.

Woo woo woo-

Blood fountains soared high into the sky.

“As expected, the northern 4th rank. Dodging is a good level, right?”

Theo let out a laugh.

It was because he acted as if he was about to strike his sword from the front, and then threw it back in a hurry.

He must have intuitively felt that he would not want to collide head-on. You are born with one sense.

Because of that, only a slight scar was left on the shoulder area.

Axion’s face was red with his pride hurt at the fact that he “avoided” the attack of the idiot of the Rose Palace.

‘It’s over.’

Theo could see that Axion would no longer be his opponent.

If so, I thought it would be better to deal with it quickly.

So, I’m going to take another step

Dig!

Suddenly, the cloud of dust that had surrounded them both broke, and six test takers came out.

“Theo Ragnar!”

“How dare you make us look like this?”

“Go away!”

“I will kill you!”

The students of the Kyoryongkai who suffered major and minor injuries.

It seemed that he had come to rescue Axion.

[‘Skill: Hatchling Synchro’ is activated.]

Theo developed telekinesis.

The subject is several pebbles and rock fragments rolling around on their toes.

Pointy and sharp weapons drew a large whirlpool and then bounced out like memorization.

“Kuh… … !”

“Cuck!”

Damn!

The test takers didn’t even think that the pebbles would come out, so they couldn’t block it properly and had to fall down.

No matter how he tried to block it, he was helpless by Theo’s sword attack that flew right after.

Chow!

In addition, to the appearance of Ray, who belatedly invaded the battlefield.

In the end, the alliance of the Gyolonghoe, the Senate, and the Maehwagung factions quickly became incapable of fighting.

‘Did he just run away?’

Theo let out a blank laugh while looking at Axion’s seat, who had fled in the blink of an eye.

To offer all of his subordinates as sacrificial lambs and only look out for his own safety.

In the first place, it seemed that the Kyoryonghoe was not a place to last long.

tadak-

Theo unfolded ＜Flap of the Lark＞ and pursued Axion.

He was already badly injured, so he couldn’t have run away.

* * *

‘Theo Ragnar! kill it! I’ll kill you no matter what!’

while leaving the scene. Axion grinded his teeth several times.

Since when was it?

What made things turn out this way?

Obviously, everything would have been perfect.

However, the situation that started to get twisted once grew like a snowball and made it impossible to use your hands.

“Felix, Morgan… … ! yes. It’s because of those stupid bastards. If only they had done the job a little better… … !”

No, it wasn’t just them.

Gyoryonghoe, Orien, and other idiots also bit his ankle.

finally.

It was an unfortunate accident that happened because everyone except himself stupidly failed to do their part.

‘Exam only. If I leave the exam hall, I’ll have to straighten everything out. The Gyoryukai will also start over from the beginning, and Theo Ragnar… … ! Save an assassin or kill him anyway.’

Ed’s request?

A relic of the Taechoryong that has not yet been recovered?

what does it all mean

It’s more about your own self-esteem.

Then Axion raised his head.

A low ridge was visible.

There was a boundary line that separated the exam hall from the outside.

It is also a place where examiners from the Central Security Bureau are located.

It was also a meeting place to listen to Ed’s orders.

If you only get there, there will be no more danger.

‘Almost there… … !’

However, Axion’s expectations did not last long.

“Is this the place you ran away from?”

“… … How are you?”

grave voice.

However, it was a voice that chilled Axion’s spine.

I hurriedly looked back as I straightened my back.

The guy with his long hair blowing in the mountain wind.

It was Theo.

“Let’s say where you’re going, well, from there to there. A kangaroo that can’t leave its mother’s arms. Is that just you?”

Axion’s face contorted mercilessly.

Crunchy!

“yes. Let’s see how long you can fool me.”

Axion took out all the totems he had stored in the inside pocket of his winter clothes and broke them.

Kurrr-

As the earthquake occurred, various monsters and monsters popped up around Theo and Axion.

“Originally, they were meant to trap you in a trap, but… … yes. It won’t make much of a difference whether you write there or here.”

borrow-

Among the monsters, there were also 5th grade monsters with purple demons.

A bull-headed monster 3 meters tall.

It was a Minotaur.

“I have people close by who can rescue me here, but what about you? Fool of the Rose Palace, resent your mother for giving birth to you like that.”

The last thing I had, just in case, was put to good use.

Axion was certain of Theo’s death.

There was no big worry because if there was a chaos, nearby examiners would appear and save him.

But.

“Since you’re driven all the way here, it seems that you’ve lost your mind, Axion?”

Theo didn’t look nervous at all even when he saw the monsters surrounding him.

Instead, he stuck Drake’s blade into the floor, and instead reached for the moonlight sword at his waist.

“what?”

“The one-time artifact that attacked you… … Have you ever wondered how I was able to collect them without spending them all this time?”

“… … !”

In an instant, the worst assumption passed through Axion’s mind.

But it was already too late.

click-

With the sound of the moonbaek sword being separated from its scabbard.

Bounce!

from bottom right to top left.

The moonbaek sword drew a diagonal line.

Wow.

Theo awakened the Moonlight Sword’s thoughts with Hatchling Synchro.

The nature of Griffin, which had been dormant deep within him, awakened on its own.

Hunger. thirst. gluttony. ferocity.

The beast, insatiable and always hungry for food, let out a roar.

The Moonbaek Sword trembled more violently than ever before.

This was the reason Theo was able to hunt several summoned monsters without using disposable artifacts.

No matter what kind of monster it was, in the end it was just a bite in front of Griffin.

The Griffin, who had once traumatized Theo by the side of the Black Dragon, had now become Theo’s faithful limbs.

And that wasn’t all.

Brain light spoofing method.

Thanks to collecting five pieces, Theo was able to put lightning properties on his sword, albeit very weakly.

Thunderbolt is intense, fast, and ferocious.

It matched Griffin’s ferocity so well.

And the dragon’s three claws.

Maehwagungju’s Plum Blossoms and Ray’s Bingbaekmuryu.

There was a ray of light that was enhanced by the blending of the two opposite qualities.

Cheak-

The first claw drawn with a diagonal line wipes out many of the monsters,

The second claw fell vertically and aimed at the top of the Minotaur’s head.

coo uh oh!

The Minotaur managed to deflect the beam of light with the bat he was holding, but eventually lost an arm.

And,

It was not enough that the third claw, drawn across, mercilessly swept the Minotaur’s head off.

I aimed at Axion, who was standing behind me with a bewildered face.

“Yu, you already woke up the artifact… … ?”

The thing that even uncle couldn’t get his hands on?

However, Axion’s thoughts did not last long.

Waves of light that brighten the vision.

The boy’s pupils, terrified, turned white.
