Chapter 4: Reversal of Identity

"・・・・・・・・・・・・・" The young man doesn't understand, the black mage is at least a kind of mage, although he doesn't know what the meaning of the black mage represents in this world, but he doesn't hate it to this extent, right?

"What do you hate? is it a black mage, or is it some kind of black mage profession?" the young man asked.

"You ・・・・・・・・・" The young man's appearance that seemed to pretend to be garlic calmed down Kuria, who was in anger, if he was not mistaken just now, the initial attack on the other party was not with magic, but with an ordinary medium and long sword, it was impossible for a person who specializes in magic to take his attack so lightly!

"Who the hell are you?"

"Have you finally calmed down? It seems that there is room for redemption・・・・・・・・・" The young man smiled with relief as he looked at Curia, who seemed to let his guard down.

"I ask you who the hell it is?!!! "If the man in front of you is not a dark magician, then ・・・・・・・・・・・

"Captain !!!"

At this moment, the seriously injured knight ran in front of Curia, his shoulder was pierced with a large hole, and three fingers of his other hand were broken, although his body was covered by armor, the young man could accurately sense that the knight's body had already been shattered, and it was estimated that he would die of excessive blood loss in a few minutes!

"What the hell is going on?!! Curia asked anxiously, holding the knight in his hands, leaving the young man to dry up completely.

"The black-clad magician is in the East End・・・・・・・・・Ahem!・・・・・・・・ quickly" Before the knight could finish his words, a mouthful of blood spat out of his helmet, and his breath of life had completely disappeared.

"The magician in black, it seems that that is the black magician you are looking for~" The young man roughly knew what kind of black magician he was, and he probably was similar to a demon, or a person with a personality close to a demon~

"Uh・・・・・・・・・・ sorry! Your Excellency, ・・・・・・・・・・・ just now" Kuria apologized to the young man without hesitation, although he was reckless and somewhat unscrupulous, he really lived up to the name of a knight.

"Let's go, it's too late to go!" the young man smiled slightly.

"I see!" Leaning the knight's body against the wall beside him, Curia sat on his steed and glanced at the young man apologetically before leaving.

When the young man who watched Curia leave with a smile couldn't see the other party's back at all, the smile on his face gradually cooled, looking at the knight's corpse that was placed aside by Curia.

"Aren't you coming out yet?"

"Ahh~ I was actually discovered, and my three real yΓ n products were killed by you, right?" Originally unable to make a sound, the knight suddenly heard the voice of another person in his armor, an unpleasant voice like a snake.

"Heh~ Your swamp-like aura, I can detect it even if I don't use magic to perceive it!" the young man smiled disdainfully.

"What arrogance, boy!" the owner of the voice seemed to be angry at the young man's disdain, but more curious, "I'm curious to know how you killed them, it's impossible for an ordinary adventurer to kill three synths at once." ”

"Why don't you try it?" said the young man, pulling out the mid-length sword at his waist, the wide-bladed mid-length sword has a smaller attack range than the long sword, but the sturdiness of Cheng DΓΉ has improved a lot, and it is also conducive to slashing as hard as a broadsword.

"Heha・・・・・・・・・・ no, I can't make a move now, if that old guy finds out, it will be trouble~"

I guess the old man in the mouth of the red-haired man must also be a strong man, otherwise he wouldn't have made this black magician so jealous.

"It looks like I can't fight~" The young man took back the middle and long sword, and he couldn't test what level he was in this world without fighting, which was still a little disappointing for the young man.

"That's true, but it's only temporary, and one day I'll kill you arrogant boy!" the man said as something that had been stored in the knight's corpse disappeared.

"・・・・・・・・・・・" was silent for a long time, the young man turned around and sighed heavily, obviously deciding not to intervene in those inconsequential events, but now he inexplicably provoked a black magician, and his 'former' savior is really guilty~

At the same time, in the eastern part of Alista City, Curia is greeted by a shop area in ruins, and the corpses of some soldiers and civilians can be faintly seen lying in the ruins, and even some corpses are full of traces of being eaten by some kind of creature!

"Everton, Dresia!" said Kuria, shouting at the ruins, but his cries were not answered, and only a plurality of synths jumped out of the ruins and swooped down on him!

"!!! get in the way"

The knight's greatsword in his hand was wrapped in the wind of fighting energy, and with one blow, all the synths were blown away, but it stopped at blasting, and Curia's greatsword did not cause substantial damage to them!

Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!

The voice of the synth beasts continued to sound around him, and Rao was a battle-hardened warrior like Kuria, and he could imagine how miserable he would be if he couldn't defeat this group of synths!

If he is captured by the black magician and taken as a real product, then the boy who starved to death in the forest is his senior!

"Can't die!" Faced with such a large number of synths, Kuria could only fight to the death.

Psychic Skill Sword Storm!

The fierce wind of the fighting spirit formed a huge storm, and the howling wind and the fighting spirit merged into a blade-like wind blade, and the pain of a knife fell on the synthetic beasts, and the pain, wailing, and desperate pain were vividly reflected in the bodies of this group of beasts.

"Hah!ha!ha!" "Kuria, who was holding the ground with one hand, looked at the blood-colored synthetic beasts around him, the move just now was already his strongest attack, if he couldn't even kill them with his 'hole cards', then he would probably have to stand still and wait for death.

"Curia, you are derelict in your duties this time・・・・・・・・・・" The old man who was supposed to stay in the library suddenly appeared beside Curia.

"Old man・・・・・・・・・・・" Curia didn't dare to look back at this half-year-old man, he was not only derelict in his duties this time, but also could put Alista into a crisis of ruining MiΓ¨!

"This is the last chance, it's up to you whether Alista will ruin MiΓ¨ or not, Curia. ”

"・・・・・・・・・・・・・・" Kuria did not dare to give an affirmative answer, he was afraid that he would lose all fighting spirit when he saw the disappointed eyes of the old man.

That's right! The person he used to think of as a black magician, when he asked him if the three-headed synthetic beast outside the city was the masterpiece of the youth, he didn't think that the one who killed the synthetic beast was actually that young man, and judging from the fact that he killed the three-headed synthetic beast unharmed, it is estimated that he is also a strong man, at least not less than his own strong man!

As if hopeful, Kuria bowed to the old man behind him, summoning the horse that had not been eaten by the synth, if he was not mistaken, the magician said that the black mage was likely to go to the library, and he met the person near the library, which meant that the two were destined for the same destination, or that person was about to wait for the dark mage to come to the door in the library, but was delayed on the way due to his own attack.

"Well, it must be so!" the more Curia thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, the young man could dodge his attacks lightly, probably those travelers who explored the outer regions of the human territory, otherwise even high-level adventurers would not be able to take their own sword without changing their faces.

---Alista's Library---

"Inherent Technique: Eye of Illusion!"

The young man's eyes were filled with tiny magic arrays, all of which were stacked together like starlight, which were extremely conspicuous in this secluded library, like an open fire in the darkness, and the tiny magic arrays turned into points of light that broke away from his eyes and flew towards those books.

The Eye of Illusion is a magic invented by the Council of Six in that world for magicians who have a bad memory (do not have full memory ability), because it is an inherent technique, so the knowledge that is memorized will never be forgotten, but as a price, it will rob the caster of a part of the mana as 'ability to repay', which is not helpful to those magicians after six pages, but it is a blessing for those apprentices and magicians.

"I see. With the feedback of the light points, countless knowledge about this world continued to imprint into his mind, and at the same time, he also knew what the meaning of the black mage to the aborigines of this world was.

Three hundred years ago, the black mage at that time was only a branch of the mage profession that used shadow magic, and at the same time a part-time biological alchemist, but since a black mage named Constantine was transformed into a lich by the undead monarch, with his understanding of biological alchemy and the magic of undead creatures, he created a strange creature called a synthetic beast, and all kinds of creatures were spliced together by him and activated, becoming a 'beast' that was more terrible than the undead who had no reason!

If the abomination of undead creatures can be won by wisdom, then the synth beast that is spliced together by countless corpses is the 'killing weapon' that can only be won by strength with the wisdom of beasts!

So far, the black mage has been regarded as a synonym for ominous and evil by the people of the mainland, it can be said that the rat crosses the street and everyone shouts and beats, but it happens that there are also some people in this world who worship evil gods, and they are very welcome to these magicians with the three professions of necromancer (fur) and biological alchemist (part-time) and black mage (shadow mage), and they are also given very high treatment.

So those black magicians really became evil magicians after joining the cult, and became as evil and crazy as those rumors, and even slaughtered people from several towns for them to perform blood sacrifices in order to repay the cult that took them in!

And what was summoned at the time, but there was no detailed description in the book, so it should have been artificially erased~

However, the book also records the end of the dark mage, the church of this world sent twenty high-level paladins and three sages, and finally destroyed the cult at the cost of the complete destruction of the paladins and the death of two sages and the serious injury of one sage, and the black mages have not appeared in the territory of mankind since then・・・・・・・・・・・

At least it was like this before, but now that the city called Alysta has been invaded by an unknown dark magician, then the church will definitely send someone to investigate, and it will not be good if they find out their 'identity' (not a malicious collective, but the identity of an otherworldly).

The fourth update of the new book!

The guy who said it was a waste stream, was slapped in the face!
