43 – Common Statement

[…] ….]

The elder lich was silent.

In an instant, I couldn’t grasp the situation.

…… What was it

He must have tried to explain his purpose to the people of the empire.

Just after that.

There was a clear flash of blue light.

[…] … What is this?]

A voice mixed with astonishment escaped from the elder lich’s mouth.

An elder lich staggers once.

As if paralyzed, he couldn’t control himself.

“Hey Rich.”

[…] … !]

And then, towards Richie, White quietly began to open his mouth.

Indeed, bloody, murderous eyes flashed terrifyingly.

“…… I mean, I had the important event of a lifetime ahead.”

[…] … ?]

Above the rich skull gourd, an absurd feeling cautiously surfaced.

…… What is this young man talking about?

No, more than that.

Is that blue lightning from before a magic cast by this young child?

Richie’s expression slowly turned to bewilderment.

“You interrupted that.”

Without paying any attention to Richie’s expression, White calmly continued her words.

“…… Are you ready for your second death? Rich.”

Finishing her words briefly, White began to hold a bolt of blue light in his right hand.

She lit up all around her with small sparks flying.

[What… ….]

At least to the Elder Lich, that wasn’t the point.

[…] … 7Th circle? 7Th circle?]

Rich let out a stunned voice.

As if he couldn’t believe what was happening right in front of his eyes, Richie’s eyes dropped.

As she turned her gaze toward him, White cupped her hand and formed the shape of her gun.

“I don’t know where you are or what you are a lich.”

[…] … Now, wait.]

“Unless you are the so-called Immortal Elder Lich of the West, you won’t be able to receive my thunderbolt twice.”

White smiles once.

“…… Then.”

Soon, a serious expression appeared on his face.

“Goodbye, Richie.”

At the same time as White murmured briefly, the blue lightning on his index finger gradually began to take on a bloody light.

“──.”

Soon, not too long ago.

Quaaagh!

With an eardrum-shattering roar, White shot a bolt of eerie blue light at the lich.

[…] … Huh, heh heh.]

He stared at the lightning that flew straight at him, and the lich let out a devastated laugh.

[Looks at all the strange little guys.]

And then, the next moment.

Hwaaagh!

“…… !”

Because black mana burst out with explosive force from the whole body of the lich.

[You said you succeeded in your first attack, you look down on me too much.]

With those eyes flashing fiercely, the lich raised his hand, tapping his bones.

Ugh-

Soon, black mana began to condense into a single dot on his fingers.

[You won’t be treated twice. Young nova.]

Qua gag gag gag!

From the tip of the finger, a chain of the same color as jet black protruded.

White’s blue lightning and Elder Rich’s black chains flew wildly toward each other.

And, of course, the next moment.

In less than a few seconds, the two magics collided at the midpoint.

aaa!

The lightning and the chain violently entangled each other, creating a huge roar.

*****

“… ….”

[…] ….]

A huge cloud of dust rose, and while standing in the middle, White and Richie looked at each other.

‘…… To offset my thunderbolt so lightly?’

White narrowed her eyes and raised her evaluation of Richie.

In a slightly more menacing direction.

‘I expected something unusual to happen since the battle system was damaged.’

That black chain, and the mana that is unmatched in darkness.

…… What that means is, there was only one.

[Kuhuhh… ….]

“… ….”

As White’s thoughts came to a conclusion, Rich let out an unpleasant laugh.

Surely, White’s expression was subtly frowning.

“What’s fun? The elder lich.”

Suddenly, the title he used to call him was replaced by a word that meant his true identity from a simple lich.

[You managed to find out, little child.]

“…… Can’t you know Even after looking at that thick black mana.”

[Kkeuk, is that so… ….]

Once in a while, the lich looked behind him as he sagged his horse.

Now, the place where his eyes are headed is none other than that.

[How about it? Did you see it well? Lycanter and Qliphoth.]

“… ….”

Right before White intervened, he was two men confronting him.

Teikan’s expression naturally hardened into a serious look.

“Ah.”

And at that point, White’s expression began to subtly frown.

It was only then that he noticed Teikan’s presence.

A line of cold sweat ran down White’s white cheek.

‘…… Did I do it too carelessly?’

No, although, of course, my anger welled up and I struck a lightning bolt with half ignorance.

…… I can’t believe her father was here.

“Son?”

“…… Yes father How do you call me?”

Teikan and White exchanged mysterious glances at each other.

[Huh… ….]

And the elder lich let out a strange exclamation at the exchange of eyes between the two father and son.

[I wondered where such a monster-like youngster came from, and it was Qliphoth’s child. It is truly a unique family.]

At Richie’s muttering, White tapped his throbbing forehead.

“…… For a moment. Shut up, Elderlich.”

[Keukkeuk, let’s do that…….]

From noble mtl dot com

Rich backed away unexpectedly easily at White’s words.

As if asking rich people to have a comfortable conversation, the lich pulled him back.

“Thank you very much for your consideration… ….”

In response, White let out a blank laugh, twisting his lips once.

“… ….”

“… ….”

And soon, Teikan and White started throwing mysterious eyes at each other again.

“Your Excellency the Duke. If my eyes are not wrong, isn’t that boy Your Excellency’s son?”

“Yes, but… ….”

To Marquis Lii Canter’s question, Tay Khan replied subtly as if she was not confident.

White’s expression was subtly distorted.

“…… No, father. What do you mean. Where in the world is the father who does not recognize his only son?”

White spat it out with the utmost displeasure.

“Well, judging by his cheeky tone, he must be my son.”

“… ….”

What really came back was Teikan’s nonchalant reply.

Suddenly, a tendon sprouted from White’s forehead.

“Heh heh. Why is that, son? It’s not the kind of look I would send to my one and only father.”

“…… What do you think about my eyes?”

“It looked as if lightning would strike me at any moment.”

“… ….”

At Tay Khan’s joking remark, White covered her eyes with the palm of her hand.

‘…… It’s bothering me.’

…… Inwardly, he began to carefully grasp the situation.

White’s gaze calmly scanned all directions.

First of all, the elder lich.

‘Even if I put aside those skull gourds for now.’

The next place the eyes turned quickly was the place where the Marquis Teikan and Lyikanter were.

‘My father and the Marquis of Lycanter… ….’

The space between White’s eyebrows began to narrow.

Did you feel that the situation was not so good?

White directed her gaze cautiously to the sky above her.

“… ….”

“… ….”

…… A girl floating in the air in a blurry shape and White exchanged glances.

‘What should I do?’

White asked with her message magic.

‘Why do you ask me that, disciple?’

The answer that came back was absolutely unreasonable.

Still, with her utmost hope, White directed her swaying gaze toward her own mentor.

‘Please help me. The subject who came with me and escaped alone with stealth magic.’

‘Ah, what would you say?’

Ashera let out a chuckle, and White tried to smile.

‘…… Why don’t you just teleport away with me?’

‘Yes, I don’t like it.’

‘… ….’

At Ashera’s immediate reply, White carefully pressed her eyes.

‘No, Master. Are you saying that your one and only disciple is in danger of a lifetime, and you can’t even help me a bit?’

‘Ahahahaha, what is the risk of a lifetime? Isn’t it just that the disciple’s status has been exposed a little?’

‘…… Isn’t that the biggest problem!’

White glared at Ashera with her glowing eyes.

But despite that stare, Ashera just put a mischievous smile on her lips.

‘Then, can you solve it well? If I stay here longer, I think the elder lich will notice the incongruity of the stealth magic, so I’m going to go!’

‘…… Master? Master?’

White hurriedly called her, but she had already made up her mind.

‘Yap, teleport!’

Down!

At the same time as he muttered briefly, Ashera’s form disappeared in an instant.

‘This, Asherah…… !’

Because only the empty cry of White, who was a step behind, resounded quietly.

“… ….”

White lowered her head with a helpless expression.

[Hmm.]

…… And at that point, the Elder Lich stepped forward again.

[Did the conversation between the father and son end well?]

“… ….”

White calmly directed her gaze, which was strangely murderous, to Richie.

[…] … ?]

The elder lich was momentarily puzzled by him.

[Hmm.]

Do you think it’s not that important?

Richie put her chin on her chin, her subtle eyes shining once towards White.

[This is what happened, wouldn’t you say Tongseongmyeong? It’s Qliphort’s child.]

“… ….”

White’s eyes narrowed.

And, not paying attention to White’s expression, the elder lich calmly continued her words.

[I am the elder lich of the west, Lucifel. At the same time, he is an immortal wizard who has risen to the highest level among all liches, and he is also a long-time friend of Friedrich Edwald, the great mage of the Empire that you all follow.]

The elder lich finished his words at the right time, casting his gaze at White as if to say you would be next.

“… ….”

White’s eyes began to slowly and coldly sink.
