Labyrinth City Mesugaki Pawn Shop

55.Return (1)

As soon as Jan stretched out his hand toward Maria, Louis Deviène, who was standing next to him, made a bizarre noise and charged as if he had been waiting.

“That’s-“

Why did such a wit jump out of that fat body, instead of being caught in the bondage magic that was trying to spread towards Maria, she collapsed to the floor.

“Tsk.”

As soon as I clicked my tongue, a crowd started pouring in from outside the pawnshop.

Each of them had different appearances, but one thing, the magical energy of the dragon’s eyes shining brightly.

Those possessed by the Dragon’s Eye.

No matter how many people he had gathered, the pouring entrance could not stand it and gave off a bizarre vibration.

Even in the midst of that, Maria slipped out of the room as if nothing had happened.

It would work normally, but…

“You should do that while looking at the other person.”

The first man rushed into the pawn shop, Denzel Hays, the owner of the general store in front of the pawn shop, was about to reach out to Yan, but the second magic completed quickly passed by people.

Non-lethal electric-type magic, he collapsed trembling and unable to move forward any further.

The circular electrical ring that started from Yan’s body began to penetrate people and buildings… At one point, the ring could no longer unfold and became entangled.

A few dull touches and light tremors.

Other than that, there were various reactions from other places, but it didn’t feel as heavy as the former.

The backlash arose not because they were prepared, but because they responded quickly to a sudden situation.

Even though he couldn’t resist Yan’s magical power, and eventually became a stoned frog.

Adventurers see magic returned through their fingertips, but the one at the end of the alchemy street was different from that.

From noble mtl dot com

There was a very strong reaction and absorption, and there was only one thing that could cause such a thing.

The armor of the rock dragon that Yan sold a while ago.

As she lightly flew over the fallen people and stepped out, Maria stood tall, fully clothed in armor, behind the countless fallen people.

No matter how extensively it spread, even though it was magic with a meaning close to search, being able to resist so easily was a guarantee of the quality of the item.

The armor, perfectly tailored to the wearer, clung to Maria’s body.

A bolt of electricity bounced off her armor and grazed Maria’s cheek, but it bounced off the hexagonally hardened skin.

Skin like scales of a dragon, the resistance was unnecessarily high.

I thought the limbs and face would be empty because it was a set of armor that only had top and bottom, but I wonder where it was prepared, boots, gloves, and a helmet that matched the armor protruded from the subspace next to Maria and were worn naturally.

Even the privately owned subspace, it was confirmed that he was definitely not an ordinary slave.

“Is it because of the witch’s confidence, or is it that there is no need for that… To be honest, she didn’t act even though she had a chance to attack several times?”

Maria, perfectly dressed in her armor set, tilted her head in puzzlement.

I have taken some measures in case Yan interferes with magic, but the need to use it has disappeared.

“I don’t remember who did it… But I’ve heard that. Waiting for the transformation time is a national rule or something…”

The words of someone who was vague even in Yan’s memory, who was it… I looked back at the memory in my head once again, but for some reason I couldn’t come up with a face.

Well, it doesn’t matter. With a slight shake of his head, he let go of his thoughts.

She didn’t take any countermeasures, and Maria gave an eerie smile to Yan, who was blankly standing there.

“Such confidence would kill you?”

What came out of subspace this time was none other than Maria’s height and a greatsword comparable in size…

“A rod?”

It was an unidentified thin rod.

And the moment she saw the stick, the witch’s senses began to fluctuate again.

Until now, no, it has never been revealed to this world, and it should not be revealed.

My senses pierced that it was something incomparable to the monkey hand I had taken out a while ago under extremely limited conditions.

And without even having time to respond, he grabbed the sword and pushed the rod into the back of the handle.

“Huh?”

At the same time as the blue light burst out in all directions, Yan collapsed into place.

No magic, no curses, no blessings, no divine status, no majesty.

What happened when the blue light just passed through the body.

When he contemplated the inside of his body, which ordinary people could neither see nor see, there was his own body, where everything was smashed to the point where it was impossible to regenerate.

An unknown attack that causes blood to ooze from all the mucous membranes of the body, from the eyes, nose, and mouth.

Staring blankly ahead, Maria, who had pulled her wand from her handle again, was breathing heavily.

“The shielding is good, but the heat is not enough.

Yan wasn’t the only one with blood spurting out of his body.

Others are worse than that or hell itself.

It was normal to vomit blood, and there were countless people whose skin was peeling off.

After blankly looking around her for a while, Maria slowly approached as if trying to finish Jan who was sitting down.

“A witch is also a human after all, how is it? I feel like I was caught off guard.”

“Certainly, this is… Impossible… I can’t even begin to do it with just my hands…”

He raised his hand, but his broken body couldn’t even move his mana properly.

It was as if thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions of tiny arrows had torn my whole body to shreds.

A body that cannot be returned even if the saintess comes.

Slowly beside her, with the collapsing Jan behind her, Maria moved her steps.

…

She was about to do that, until her voice was heard.

“By the way, where are you going?”

The words whispered in my ear gave me goosebumps. I turned around and swung my greatsword, but at some point the sword did not move as if it had been crushed by a huge rock.

And the cause was none other than Yan, whom he thought was dead.

Her body was slowly rewinding as she stood up again with blood all over her body.

Not just the concept of regeneration or restoration, Maria’s eyes widened in her helmet at a scene she had never heard or seen, as if time were rewinding.

This was unexpected.

An uncommon situation where a dead enemy comes back to life.

“It’s the first time you see it, and you can be proud of it.”

Yan clapped his hands and smiled as the blood flowed back to his mouth, nose, eyes and ears.

”Unique Magic [Cat of Nine Lives]. You just killed a witch once. I still don’t know what the heck he did.”

Yan, who returned, was standing with dozens of spells wrapped around his body instead of blood.

“But that’s why I’m trying to exert myself, and if I don’t know what I’ve done… It’s enough if I don’t even need to know, right?”

Yarn wholeheartedly.

Not Yan, who lives an ordinary pawnshop’s daily life, but the greedy witch, Yan Estoria, with her clothes and mind set, staring at her Maria there.

A robe with blue waves swirling around, small stars swirling around in a staff with a crystal ball the size of a fist at the end, and a cone hat so large that the shadows were lost, Jan Estoria was there as an adversary.

Seeing that, Maria tried again to insert her rod into her handle, but she couldn’t help it.

As soon as she snapped her fingers, the sand on the floor was sucked into the handle, which was instantly blocked.

“It is started by inserting the rod there… In a way, it resembles a trigger artifact that is activated in a specific situation, but it is strange that it has no magical effect at all. No matter how little protection magic is usually used, to think that even all of them are pierced… It’s not normal… Ah, can you step aside for a moment?”

When he couldn’t put the stick in, he let go of the stick and tried to swing his tightly clenched sword at Yan-

Puss.

Spinning around – Maria fell to the floor as it was.

The weight of her entire body, the sword that had been carrying her strength, had left her hand.

No, I wondered if she should have left it.

Her arm, which had been burned as if it had been cut off around her wrist, was the cause.

From her wrists to her shoulders, not even ashes were left behind, and a belated pang came from her burnt arm, but Maria endured it by chewing her lips.

And, not paying attention to Maria at all, Yan started examining the sword floating in her place.

“Hmm… I don’t know this at all. I have some thoughts, but it’s not like an ancient curse or anything like that. It’s a metal I’ve never seen before… Do you know a little bit about the dwarves? “

It was Yan’s act of turning around and concentrating on the sword as if it wasn’t even worth fighting, but it was also true that it could not be denied.

The fact that Maria killed Yan once was just a fluke that happened through her carelessness, and nothing was of any use to Yan, who had started properly.

When I tried to move, my legs were burned this time, and when I looked at Yan, his eyes boiled and burned.

Unspeakable pain.

But even in the midst of that, Maria Salomea endured her pain and smiled.

Everything is seen through, everything is neutralized.

That is Jan Estoria, the witch at the pinnacle of sorcery.

Out of her limbs, body, face, and all senses, the only thing that was intact was her mouth and ears.

Yongin’s characteristics, such as her high magic resistance, were of no use in front of a witch who was sincere.

Maria felt it right, and she made up her mind.

“Keukkuk…hahahaha…hahahaha!”

Maria continued to burst into laughter when her desperate cry was not enough, and Yan finally turned her head.

“Huh? Did you finally go crazy? Or did you have an illusion that you could die now?”

Slowly, the burned body is regenerating again.

Arms, legs, eyes, hair.

A regeneration technique performed by someone who has reached the pinnacle of magic, different from the saint’s healing technique.

Without a trace, the regenerated skin was consumed by the flames again.

“Now you can’t even die on your own.”

But even so, Maria didn’t stop her laugh.

“Oh, no, it’s not like that. It’s not like that… It just made me laugh thinking about what I shouldn’t do next… And what I must do.”

The corners of Maria’s mouth shot up to her ears.

Madness stifled the pain and aroused ecstasy.

“Next? Next? Aren’t you misunderstanding something?”

As long as Yan started to act properly, Maria couldn’t come up with the word next, but she seemed to have a different idea.

“Ah, no, we must move on to the next one. It has always been and will continue to be so in the future. I will rise again and prepare even more thoroughly to prevent this from happening next time.”

A series of incomprehensible words, when she snapped her fingers, the flames ate up her ears and mouth.

She’ll have enough time to listen to what she’s talking about anyway–Jan thought and passed it on… But she had to listen to the back story a little more.

She should have paid more attention to her words as she forced her charred tongue, which didn’t even leak out properly.

‘Because he’ll turn back time. Because he made it so. He won’t make a mistake next time.’

He thought of the time to go back and smiled as he chewed on what he had to do there.

She’s defeated here and now, but she’s also, ironically, because she’s not defeated yet.

Einheri will soon turn back time, so it’s not over yet.

As long as he doesn’t disappear, there’s always something next for her.

Ah, next time I won’t make a mistake.

Maria Salomea let out her twisted laugh.
