SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar



'Hm? What is he referring to?' Lemi wondered to herself as she looked at Jared's shocked face.

She had thought he would be bamboozled about her newest technique, but he seemed to be talking about something else.

'I spent years developing it, you know? It's easier for me now because I am adept at manipulating my energy.'

Thanks to that, she could also control the energy around her by merging her energy with them. It initially started on a small scale, but now Lemi had developed her [Absolute Domain] to extend far beyond her.

She could cover an entire country if she really tried.

'I'm sure this is more than enough to show him what I've got.' Lemi grinned to herself, her gaze slowly shifting to the muscular man beside her father

'I wonder what Edward thinks…' 

Even though she tried to be subtle about it, she eventually stared at Edward with those thoughts in her head. 

Much to her surprise, but also anticipation, he was also staring at her.

Lemi didn't know how to react under his gaze, so she quickly looked away the moment they made eye contact. Her eyes seemed to dart around, lacking focus, and her face also seemed to be overheating.

It puzzled her greatly.

'Nng! Why did my heart just race like that?' It was a question she was unable to answer.

Before she could even attempt at it for a little longer, however, the unexpected occured.

~BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~

"W-what?!" Lemi's attention swiftly went to the destroyed Hive, her eyes bulging in shock.

At that moment, she completely forgot about Jared, Edward, and whatever she felt about them. All that mattered as she witnessed the utter annihilation of the dark mass was the fact that it was being destroyed.

"Nooooooooo!!!" She screamed.

As someone who desired samples and data, watching everything go down the drain was too tragic.

She actually shed tears as she watched everything turn into cinders, and deep down… she only desired to know one thing.

'Who… who did this?!'

*******

[Moments Earlier]

"Alright, let's get this started."

Ana was currently standing before the dark mass of overwhelming Nether Energy, and her cute babyface was unfazed by the sheer amount of pressure the thing exerted.

Instead, she slightly flexed her glasses, and then tapped her wristwatch to initiate her plan.

~VWUSSH!~

Space warped beside her, and a round white orb appeared not long after her. 

The white sphere, similar to a snowball, had the same size as the head of a human adult, and while it was pure white in color, it had two black dots at its forefront, representing its eyes.

These two black dots suddenly brimmed with color, finally shining bright blue to signal its activation.

"It seems the Nether Beasts have begun to appear. Anabelle, analyze all the events occuring in tandem." Ana told the floating orb beside her.

"[Confirmed. Shall I split into parts in order to properly encapsulate every event occuring here, or do you desire it to be focused solely from your perspective? Perhaps an overhead perspective would also suffice?]"

The robotic tone that emanated from the white Automaton was similar to Ana's. It was obvious that she based this invention on herself—both in name and voice.

"Send out some of your micro parts to every pertinent area so you can get a three-dimensional view of everything occuring at once. Your Original form will remain here and assist with my endeavors. You should also supply data when requested."

"[Understood. I will begin to do so now]."

A few seconds of seeming inactivity passed, and afterwards, the white orb called Anabelle eventually spoke up.

"[Micro Parts have been released and sent to their respective positions. Observation has begun, and information collection has also been initiated]."

"Good." Ana smiled, excitement now coursing through her face. "Analyze the properties of the Hive before us, as well as the approaching Nether Beasts. Cross reference them with the samples you have already analyzed in N-A15."

"[Understood. From my observations thus far, this mass possesses highly concentrated Nether—far more than any other that has been analyzed prior. It will take some time before scanning and cross referencing is complete. Having substantial samples of the target material will also prove helpful in the long run.]" Anabelle spoke, her blue eyes shining brighter.

"Yeah, I know that. lI'll do my best to retrieve more samples for further studies, but a thorough scan should also prove its viability."

"[Understood. Enemies are approaching and will soon gain on us. Do you require me to perform any other action?]" 

Ana's smile grew wider as she heard the words of her Automaton.

Sure, Anabelle was designed for several purposes, and its abilities were so versatile that it was considered a masterpiece in her eyes. 

However, right now it had one role… one function.

"You just focus on your task. Don't worry about the Nether Beasts…" Ana smiled, cracking her tiny knuckles.

Her glasses reflected the fast approaching adversaries, but nothing about her demeanor reflected worry of any sort.

"... I'll deal with them myself."

Raising just one of her hand, she let the Aether within her course through her body and find release at the tip of her fingers.

'The best way to deal substantial damage while utilizing the least amount of energy is by using the surroundings to my advantage.'

And so, Ana's Spell had one simple function… 

"[Black Singularity]."

Instantly, the space around her fingertips began to distort… and then collapse. Everything around the tiny black sphere close to her began to get sucked in, and all energy that caved within it found their eventual destruction.

In essence, Ana had just made a black hole.

"Go now." Ana released the ever-expanding dark pool, guiding it in the direction of her adversaries.

~WHUUUUUUMMMMMM!!!~

And so, it began.

The unstoppable, inevitable destruction of the Nether Beasts.
