SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar

486 Vermillion Rupture [Pt 1]

Desgarion felt alive, more so than ever before.

He gazed upon his opponent, who also looked equally entertained.

There was nothing better than duking it out with an opponent when both parties were immersed in the thrill of fighting.

Even though he knew the final victory would be his, Desgarion desired to enjoy the savor of battle as much as he wanted.

>VWUUUUSSSHHH<

Increasing his speed and building a nonstop momentum, Desgarion sped through the vast expanse laid out before him and lunged at Jared, who already took to the space above.

He prepared a blast using both his hands, making it swirl as it got compressed to form more destructive power.

"Haaaaaa!!!" Desgarion released the ray of pure crimson destruction.

It far surpassed anything Jared had thrown at him in the past, and if the human didn't raise his defenses, he would be—

"Nice move." Jared's voice came from behind.

"Uh?!"

Once again, the human was one step ahead, and a very strong punch landed on Desgarion's face before he could fully process what had occurred.

>BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM<

Descending like lightning, the Crimson Demon crashed upon the earth to form a crater.

Despite his newly obtained power, the hit still stung.

'He increased his power too...?" Desgarion smiled, groaning as he rose from the rubble.

"But it's no use. I'll simply outgrow this too."

Desgarion's body glowed, and then once again, he acclimated to the hit that Jared gave him.

"Interesting..." Jared's voice echoed as he observed the Demon Lord heal and get stronger.

Desgarion didn't understand whether the human understood what was happening, or if he thought it was simple Magic Enhancement.

'If he knows, then why does he keep attacking? I'll just keep growing stronger.' That brought him to the conclusion that Jared did not know the nature of his Original Magic—at least, not wholly.

Desgarion's body raged with more energy and a purple glow now emerged from his fist. It contained a strange power that he hadn't displayed before.

"HAAAAAA!!!"

He lunged the blow before reaching Jared, and an overpowering pulse charged at the human with unreasonable speed.

>BOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM<

A large cloud of destruction hung in the air thanks to the impact. And then—

>VWUUUUMMMM!!!<

Multiple orbs that contained many colors began manifesting.

"[Grand Harmonious Storm]"

With that voice in tow, a bunch of immensely powerful elemental Magic rained upon Desgarion.

>BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM<

The earth sizzled, and it was pretty much a sea of molten magma at this point.

Heat rose in all directions, and destruction could be seen for miles. But Desgarion was still standing.

His body healed once more, and his armor was in the process of being fixed.

He had wounds, but with his cheat-like Original Magic, they would be recovered in no time.

"Hahahahaha! I can feel it... this power!" The rush of energy and increased physical prowess made Desgarion so happy that he nearly went insane.

He would keep evolving until he stood at the pinnacle.

At the moment, no one—not even the Demon King—was stronger than him. The only exception was the human before him.

But, he too would soon fall.

"Alright, I've seen what I wanted. Let's end this, shall we?"

A golden book appeared before the human, and the pages began flipping.

An unbelievable amount of energy manifested... but it wasn't the Miasma that Desgarion was used to.

This was—

'MANA!'

—Something a bit more dangerous.

As a Demon, his body naturally had resistance to Miasma.

But, Mana was different. He hadn't built up his defenses against the conflicting energy yet, and if he wasn't careful, he would be consumed before his Original Magic allowed him to acclimate.

'I'll bolster my defenses, then. If it's on the same level as—or even slightly higher than—the last one, I can handle it.'

The Crimson Demon watched something form in the sky.

It looked like a swirling pool of red. Unlike his crimson color, this had a more gem-like luster. It also spoke of an unspeakable evil.

It was a swirling pool of vermillion... and the immense energy began condensing to form something else.

—A drilling arrow.

The vermillion arrow whirred as it spun, growing more powerful with every rotation it took.

On and on, it did so in a never-ending cycle, taking in more vermillion Mana as the spin grew faster as well.

'That's dangerous!' Desgarion thought to himself and took to action.

He surmised that as long as he stopped the spin, he would be able to cancel the increasing danger of the Spell.

And the best way to do that was to assault the human casting it.

Desgarion didn't hesitate to generate his most powerful blow as he charged at Jared Leonard with the aim of killing him.

However—

>VWUSH<

—The human teleported just as the hit was about to hit.

The Vermillion arrow kept growing.

It was peaking beyond belief, enough to make Desgarion wary.

'Tch!' Maybe I'll target the Spell this time?'

Condensing his energy and releasing it in a straight thrust, Desgarion aimed his power at the Spell being generated above him.

Hopefully, the two would offset each other—since they belonged to contrasting elements.

However—

>SHUUUUUUUUU<

Before the blast reached the swirling pool, it broke down completely.

That was when Desgarion noticed it, the fact that the surrounding Miasma had been broken down, and the problem kept spreading beyond their battlefield.

The usually thick cloud of Miasma that provided an overflowing rate of negative energy had vanished from the area.

'W-what is this Spell...?!'

Desgarion could feel his senses alert him of the danger.

'I have to stop this!'

Despite that, no matter how hard he tried to attack the Spellcaster or the Spell, it wasn't effective enough.

And then—

"I've still not gotten the hang of things... and I was multitasking, so it took more time than expected." The human's voice echoed in Desgarion's ears.

"But, it's finally ready. I've reproduced the Spells those two used at that point, and combined them. Vermillion Burst and Harbinger Of Rupture... they make a good combination."
