SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar

The sky above was painted marvelously in a multitude of colors.

It seemed to spread across the entire world—like an expanse of glorious light. With such shimmering lights, and the beauty of destruction evident to our eyes, we witnessed the elaborate destruction I caused.

The area of effect was estimated to be at least three times bigger than what happened in the Northern Continent, and I also tried to contain the blast so it would target the Nether and only him. Still, the area of effect, as expected, expanded far and wide—the target being at the center of it.

'That's why… or at least, one of the reasons why I took it far into the sky.'

The shockwaves greeted us as they accompanied the loud explosion, fortunately, we were safe within my reinforced barrier.

"W-wow… such destruction." Kazen whispered beside me.

She gave me a nervous look, as well as that of surprise. She probably couldn't believe that someone like me could be capable of so much power.

'This is the result of stocking up for a long time…' I thought ti myself.

"You really did it, Lewis! I'm sorry I doubted you. You really…" Karlia was astounded.

She looked at me with such pride that I also felt good about it, and myself. However, I was not blind to the reality of the situation.

"It's not over yet." My gaze went far beyond the direction of my allies, and focused on a single location.

"What do you mean by that?" Jane spoke up behind me.

My allies were finally conscious, and I had seen just how tired and disturbed they were. Their faces were slowly brimming with hope, but my statement must have made their relief cease.

"Look at Ciel. She's just floating there, unconcerned. Based on everything that has happened so far, you'd think she would be upset—or at least concerned—about what just happened."

Instead, she was giving her usual smile.

"She's not concerned at all. It's not over. Not by a long shot!" I grunted.

We all raised our heads to the sky, and sure enough, the lights were slowly evaporating, and a deep, dark purple cloud began to manifest in the air. Flashes of purple lightning occupied the expanse above our heads, and a single entity stood there.

This being's monstrous majesty could not be ignored even if one tried.

'It's the Nether and… it's unscathed.'

I had hoped that the blast would be enough to injure him, at the very least. It contained so much energy, after all. Yet… he seemed absolutely fine.

'Now I see why Ciel couldn't have been bothered. All of that was just child's play, eh?'

"Well, this is a pleasant surprise. I certainly felt that one…" The Nether's voice thundered.

pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ He remained above, most likely immersed in the grandeur of his dominance.

"Do you have more attacks like that? If so, then perhaps you're not so weak, after all." The Nether slowly began to descend.

It felt like his power just increased, or perhaps he had been holding back his powers before now. It was also possible that he still had a good amount of his powers that he had not yet revealed.

In essence, just like with the Martial Blade God—no, this was even worse—I couldn't detect how powerful this monster was.

Speaking of the Martial Blade God… he was still in deep meditation. Since the fight started, he had yet to move from his location.

I would have gone after him if I had the chance, but my hands were full with the Nether. It probably wasn't worth it anyway—though I couldn't help but wonder what he was up to.

'Still…'

"If you have nothing left to offer, this should be the end for you."

'... I'm not done!'

In fact, this was only the beginning!ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

>VWUUUUUSSSSSHHHHHH!!!<

I instantly teleported to the sky, leaving everyone behind. Flying far above the Nether, I reached the spot where the explosion had taken place. Once I reached this summit, I was able to see everything around and beneath me.

'Haaa… it worked!' A smile formed on my face as my gaze rested on the Nether.

My true goal hasn't been to kill the Nether with my earlier blast. I did count on him being injured by the blast, so the fact that he was perfectly fine threw a wrench into my plans. Still, I just had to improvise.

'The true reason for the explosion… was to create an ideal environment for my actual trump card.'

SPELLCRAFT!

"Let's begin round two." I grinned fearlessly despite being completely nervous about this whole thing.

"Hehe… you're amusing. Different from Merlin, but similar to—"

>VWUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMM!!!<

Interrupting his words with my first strike, I sent multiple flashes of light charging in his direction.

"Really? That won't work, you know?"

I was well aware. The big blast from my device didn't even leave a scratch on him, and that had been my strongest move. It was clear that I couldn't overpower him with raw power alone.

There had to be another way.

Sourcing for that weakness was my reason for creating the perfect environment for Spellcraft.

'The explosion dispersed Aether into the area. I can use all that Aether to my advantage. If I take the interaction of Mana and Miasma, and compare and contrast it with Aether and Nether, I should be able to find a way out of this…'

Mana and Miasma could be considered opposites the same way Aether and Nether were. I had almost no knowledge of how Nether worked, so I was just going on a limb here.

If I was wrong, then things could become messed up really quickly.

'If an equal amount of Mana and Miasma collides, it will cause a balanced elimination of the distinct particles and offset any action that is brought forth from them.' In essence, it created Anti Magic.

If either side was weaker than the other, depending on the ratio and method of combination, it could lead to a chain reaction of unstable elements, causing a much bigger explosion than normal.

Kind of like how little sprinkles of water caused flames to flare up, while a larger measure would put it out.

'If I use the same process here, I wonder what will happen.'

There was only one major thing to consider about this task I was undertaking—one crucial element.

'Will I have enough Aether to survive?'
