I Picked Up a Witch With Amnesia

8. Bianca del Castana – 07

Coo-goo-goo-!

Gurlureung-!

The open meadow in front of the cabin where Cain and Bianca stayed was a space with quite a sense of taste, boasting its own charm thanks to the beautiful flower beds and sage plants planted here and there. However, due to Arya and Bianca’s clash, the meadow they stood on was completely destroyed, and they had already lost their past form.

If we had to describe the space they are currently standing in in one word, it would be most appropriate to say that it was a living hell.

All over the battlefield, even at this very moment, thunder and lightning were resounding relentlessly, and the aftermath of the fierce battle between the two was shattering the strata and burning the ground. Crucially, the ground surface they were standing on melted under the influence of being exposed to lightning-covered plasma and ultra-high-heat white flame, and turned into a soft porridge.

The once green meadow had been transformed into a space where people could not normally walk anywhere.

And through a piece of hell, a flash of hot golden light rushes through the sky. The sight of it running through the sky with golden thunderbolts wrapped around its body is reminiscent of a meteor piercing the heavens.

“aa-!”

With thunderbolts and plasma all over her body, Arya roamed the battlefield at a speed approaching subsonic speed. Its speed was so fast that the human eye could not possibly follow it. Even Bianca, who had cast a strengthening spell on her eyes, was unable to acknowledge Arya’s appearance. It was only possible to guess her current location based on the afterglow remaining in the place where Arya passed by.

“For a subject who claimed to be a wizard, acting savagely!”

Bianca, who poured countless spells on Arya but couldn’t even touch her clothes, ended up complaining in an annoyed voice.

Bianca was protecting herself by putting dozens of layers of magical barriers around her body while floating in the air.

A woman named Bianca del Castana is a wizard who stands at the pinnacle of modern mankind, and the magic she uses is one level higher than that of ordinary wizards, and there is a gap that is two levels superior in efficiency. The ‘multiple magic barrier’ she is currently using was no exception.

‘Multiple Magical Barrier’ is a magic that all existing combat wizards know how to use, and it was one of the most basic magics that literally uses one’s own magic to build a barrier to protect oneself. Indeed, it is a simple usage, but the thickness and number of barriers are determined by the amount of mana of the body, so it was also a magic in which the difference in level according to individual capabilities was more extreme than any other magic in the world.

But Bianca’s case was a little different. She was maximizing her own defense power by creating a passageway connecting barriers and efficiently circulating magic between them, rather than creating barriers by ignorantly stacking up magic like the others.

Currently, the number of magic barriers she wears all over her body is sixteen. Considering that 10 years later, it was impossible for even the ‘winter witch’ to break Bianca’s magic barrier all at once, it would be the same as there is no way for Aria to hurt Bianca right now.

…Yes, if their fight had been like a normal mage showdown, it would certainly have turned out that way.

But Arya’s method was different. Instead of shooting magic at the opponent like Bianca, she chose to enter the battlefield with magic wrapped around her body.

Doesn’t use offensive magic separately. No, there was no need for that. At the point when her whole body was wrapped in plasma that melts all matter, Arya’s body boasted power comparable to that of high-level magic. With her body turned into an arrow, Arya moves around the space and stabs Bianca in the blind spot…!

jjwoong-!

“…Keugh…!”

A while ago, another magic barrier was destroyed by Arya’s surprise attack from a blind spot. Of course, restoring the magic barrier is enough, but the magic is rapidly consumed in proportion to it. On top of that, the burden of not being able to be attacked from a blind spot at any time cuts off concentration.

One blow away. Attacking Bianca’s side at invisible speed, Arya breaks through the magic barrier that Bianca is wearing, and steadily eats away at her spiritual power.

This is one of the conversions that Arya prepared to oppose an opponent who is overwhelming in terms of magic, magic power, and instantaneous output than herself. The culmination of a strategy created only with the assumption of a decisive battle with Bianca del Castana…!

“…Indeed, although it is said to have fallen, it is a skill that is not ashamed of the name of the ‘Witch of Winter’.”

From Bianca’s mouth, a sound that seemed to acknowledge Arya came out. No, I just had to admit that. The current aria was strong. Compared to 10 years later, her power was crumbly, less than 20% of the power of the “Witch of Winter”.

“…..”

Of course, there is no answer from Arya. She was currently concentrating all her mind on killing Bianca del Castana, so she had no time to answer Bianca’s words.

“Hmph, to say that you complimented him but didn’t respond in any way is really savage and rude.”

Bianca’s eyes began to catch on as she carefully examined the tactics Arya was using.

‘…By the way, I feel like I’ve heard of this strange tactic somewhere.’

The tactic that Arya is currently using is not the tactic used by the ‘winter witch’ 10 years later. During the fierce battle with the Expedition, the Witch of Winter did not roam the battlefield like a thunderclap like Arya.

To put it bluntly, the fighting techniques used by the ‘Witch of Winter’ were almost similar to Bianca’s. In other words, he employed a tactic similar to that of a moving mobile fortress, covering his body with multiple layers of magic barriers and bombarding the opponent with high-powered magic.

However, the current Arya was acting in the opposite way to the ‘Witch of Winter’. Despite being a magician himself, he was casually poking at the magician’s loopholes and weaknesses. I remember hearing about this strange tactic somewhere.

…So, Bianca did something she shouldn’t have done during the battle. It was only for a moment, but in focusing on the curiosity in front of my eyes, I did the stupid thing of averting my eyes from the enemy who was rushing to kill me at this very moment!

‘Oops!’

The next moment, Bianca realized her mistake, but it was too late.

‘loophole!’

Aria’s eyes sparkle as she realizes that Bianca has revealed a loophole. In an instant, acceleration is added to acceleration. The thunderbolt Aria was wearing ran wild to the point of being extremely violent, but she forcibly controlled the flow of all that power and converged it to a single point!

“Bianca del Castana-!”

Missing Arya by one second gave her the opportunity to return to Bianca’s side. Plasma of high power glows everywhere, blocking Bianca’s vision and limiting her actions. A thunderbolt of destructive power that melted everything as it was, was stabbed straight into Bianca’s side.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!

“Kyaah!”

With a sound like glass breaking, seven of the sixteen magic barriers Bianca had been covering all over her body were shattered. In addition, the magic barrier could not fully absorb the destructive power of the lightning strike, and the shock wave was transmitted to Bianca.

“Big, black…!”

Bianca’s body, which received the shock wave, was bent with a giyeogja. In the end, a stream of blood flows from Bianca’s mouth. Although it was only for a short time, the cost of being careless with the enemy in front was so terrible.

“You damn witch!”

Twin wicks lit up in Bianca’s eyes. Bianca’s anger was fueled by the fact that she had been punched by a woman who was no different from an enemy rather than being hit by an enemy for being careless. It seemed that his anger would not subside if he didn’t catch Arya alive before killing her and throw a few punches at her smooth face.

“Ha, do you know how ridiculous it was to pretend to be an orphan and elegant by yourself? That kind of face suits a woman like you. Bianca del Castana!”

Arya snorted as she looked at Bianca’s distorted face. As she said that, Arya lunged at Bianca in front of her. It was an opportunity that was barely seized after countless battles. You can never miss this genius opportunity!

“Kuk!”

It was only for an instant, but the flow of magical power was twisted due to the shockwave from earlier. In addition to that, Arya, who was spewing bloody murder at herself, was in a state where she was right in front of her nose. A state that can be called a crisis of desperation.

But don’t panic. A crisis like this is just one of the countless crises he has passed while he was a part of the expedition. Bianca’s genius brain derives the most appropriate magic to overcome this situation, calculates it, and creates magic at her fingertips.

“Converge the heavenly authority, flash of light!”

The next moment, Arya had the illusion that the world was splitting in two. A huge blade of light that can be seen far beyond tens of meters, along with a truly terrifying piercing effect, flies towards Arya, slicing through everything it touches in its trajectory.

“huh!”

However, Arya only laughed at the blade of light that seemed to split her in two at any moment. It was obviously a magic that contained great power, but at the same time, it was also a magic that was improvised to block his own rush. With just this much power, it can be attacked from the front!

“Come, the thunderbolt of judgment, the cold of the frozen earth!”

Aria’s one hand holds thunder and thunder, and the other hand holds a northern wind and snow that seems to freeze everything. double casting. A skill among the arts that cannot be performed unless it is supported by innate computing power and an extremely high understanding of magic.

But, that wasn’t the end. Arya raised her magical power from her whole body, merging the thunderbolt and ice and snow in her hands into one.

“The Synthesis of Two Gods.”

The ice and snow magic of thunder and lightning that can never be mixed converges into one at Arya’s fingertips and transforms into new energy. That terrifying wave of magical power contained such intense power that even Bianca couldn’t dare to ignore it. That’s dangerous!

“A group dance of ice lightning!”

The moment the gigantic blade of light, ice, and storms of thunder collide with each other, a roaring sound begins to erupt as if the heavens and the earth are collapsing.

aa!

At the same time as a huge shock wave occurred, a truly formidable explosion swept away hundreds of meters in a concentric circle. The huge amount of hot air accompanying the explosion made the surrounding temperature hot. Unexpected pressure exploded on the earth’s previously muddy surface, turning the entire earth’s axis itself upside down.

“Ah, ha, ha, ha, damn, damn…”

In the center of the explosion, a slender woman was barely holding her own, covered in blood. Just a moment ago, I was really close to dying. At the last moment, if most of the magical energy had not been poured into the magical barrier, the woman named Bianca del Castana would have disappeared without a trace.

“hahaha…”

Arya was much stronger than Bianca thought. Going on like this is really dangerous.

Arya looked at the bloody Bianca with cold eyes and slowly opened her mouth.

“What was the price of arrogance, Bianca del Castana? Are you starting to realize that this place is your place?”
