Chapter 230
230: How’s That? Little Ones (3)
The moment the grand magic Celestial Star Orbit Formula’s first incantation manifested, creating a star itself, Ignid trembled with terror—but this was far from the end.
As if to signal that Hanalin could do no more, I seized control of the star’s heat and directed it toward Ignid, causing the creature to thrash and roar in desperation.
“Gweeeeeeee——!!!”
The roar, laden with malice, caused the heat to pause momentarily, yet it could not stop entirely.
Ignid seized this opening, swiftly escaping the heat and using its elongated body to lash its tail like a whip toward Hanalin.
No matter how exceptional a mage Hanalin was, she could not evade Ignid’s tail once it was deliberately wielded like a whip.
At the moment evasion became impossible, Dohyun bounced back from his previous position, burst forth anew with eyes wide open, and swung his blade.
Claaaaaang———!!!
Booooom———!!!
As Ignid’s tail, launched with tremendous speed and crushing weight, collided with the blade, a sound like a bell ringing echoed forth, and Dohyun’s sword sent Ignid’s tail flying backward.
From deflecting that massive, weighty tail, Dohyun’s grip tore open in an instant, yet his superhuman regeneration swiftly mended it.
Seizing the opening Dohyun had created, Hanalin extended her hand, and the star’s heat surged toward Ignid.
The moment the scorching stellar heat—capable of melting all things—touched Ignid.
Ssssshhhhh———!!!
Even for Ignid, a creature of lava, that heat was unbearable, and portions of its body melted away.
Witnessing this spectacle, the Mifu Tribe Trio’s bodies surged with excitement as they suddenly rose from their seats, fists clenched tight, and began shouting.
“Whooooa!!!” “Wooooaaah!!!!” “Yeeeeah!!!”
All three roared in fervent support of Hanalin’s display, and as if their cheers reached her, Ignid’s body melted away severely, its defenses crumbling completely.
Seizing this gap, Jiyuchan swiftly became a platinum gleam, wreathed his blade in platinum sword energy, and was about to strike when Ignid moved with startling speed.
It manipulated its scattered scale armor and hurled it at Jiyuchan, who, suspended in midair, had no means of escape and thus swung his blade.
Claaang———!!!
One of the scale armor fragments came hurtling down with force, and Jiyuchan barely blocked it before being pushed backward, while Ignid sent other scales floating through the air, coating them with lava and launching them at the retreating Jiyuchan.
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat——!!!
Like machine gun fire, the barrage of scale armor rained down, and Jiyuchan, wreathed in platinum sword energy, deployed the Golden Sword’s defensive stance, the Golden Fortress Formation, yet his feet became rooted in place.
And even as his body melted away, Ignid moved with startling speed, lashing its tail like a whip toward Dohyun.
Whoosh!
The moment Ignid’s tail, cleaving through the air, reached Dohyun, he swiftly defended against it, then attempted to sever the tail with his blade when Ignid’s tail suddenly folded, rupturing the air.
Craaaaaash———!!!
The air exploded right before Dohyun, and before he could strike the tail, the sonic boom from the ruptured air sent him hurtling backward helplessly under the pressure of the blast.
And in that interval, Ignid opened its maw once more, turning toward Hanalin.
Until moments ago, Hanalin had held the advantage with the star’s heat, yet now the star orbiting her no longer emanated that same scorching power, and Hanalin’s expression grew noticeably pale.
No matter how exceptional Hanalin was, it remained impossible to wield grand magic she had not yet fully mastered with complete freedom, and in that moment, Ignid seized victory, roaring as it spewed lava from its maw.
“Gweeeeeeeeek——!!!”
Booooom———!!!
A torrent of scorching lava rained down upon Hanalin, and at that critical juncture, Hanalin’s pallid expression transformed once more, and she vanished from that spot entirely.
And seeing this, the Trio cried out.
“Huh!?” “That technique from before!” “A mage can use it too!”
When Hanalin employed the secret instantaneous teleportation that Dohyun had used earlier behind the Trio, she reappeared atop none other than Ignid’s head.
And now that control had returned, the star that had been orbiting Hanalin came to an abrupt halt before unleashing its scorching heat toward Ignid’s head at her command.
Kwaaaaaaaa———!!!
The star’s heat writhed and surged toward Ignid as formless energy, and though the creature belatedly turned its head, it was too late.
Tremendous heat engulfed Ignid’s head, and in that instant, the dragon skull perched atop Ignid’s crown began to melt, its molten form cascading down the creature’s body.
Along with the dragon skull, half of Ignid’s head melted away, yet the creature clung to life with its formidable vitality, thrashing about while unleashing agonized shrieks.
Kwang!
Crash!
Kwaaaang———!!!
Its tail lashed out in all directions, and Hanalin deftly evaded each strike. As Jiyuchan and Dohyun recovered from the shockwave, Hanalin spoke.
“My mana will be depleted soon.”
It was remarkable that she still possessed mana reserves despite wielding grand magic she hadn’t yet mastered, and both Dohyun and Jiyuchan nodded in understanding.
Jiyuchan’s situation was similarly dire.
“I’ve only got one strike left in me.”
Dohyun nodded at Jiyuchan’s words. Though half its head was already shattered, perhaps because the earthworm was its true body, the creature showed no signs of perishing yet.
And the Mifu Tribe Trio watched with bated breath, their fingernails bitten to the quick.
Hanalin was on the verge of complete mana depletion, and Jiyuchan faced a similar predicament—how could they not feel anxious?
“Should we jump in!?” “Ugh!!” “We’re going to lose at this rate!”
The moment the three spoke, Dohyun chuckled and gestured to the Mifu Tribe Trio to calm themselves, and upon seeing his gesture, they stared blankly at him.
Perhaps they decided to trust Dohyun’s reassuring gesture. As all three watched in bewilderment, Jiyuchan moved.
Recognizing that now—with the creature’s head shattered and its consciousness reeling from the impact—was the perfect moment, Jiyuchan swiftly condensed his Platinum Sword Aura further, preparing his final strike.
The Platinum Sword Aura, condensed from Golden Sword Aura, and condensing it once more transformed it into an indescribable concentration of energy, fundamentally altering the very nature of mana itself.
Now it was truly the exclusive domain of a swordmaster worthy of the name.
Strong Aura enveloped Jiyuchan’s blade, and his Platinum Strong Aura shot forth.
This was the true first form of the Platinum Sword!
Platinum Sword
First Form
Platinum Refinement
Platinum Refinement blazed with light as Jiyuchan’s strong aura flew forward, and Ignid snapped to attention in that instant, lashing its tail.
The tail wreathed in lava was itself like a blade sheathed in sword aura, and the enormous tail—like a descending whip—seemed poised to crush the incoming Platinum Strong Aura.
However.
A crisp sound rang out.
An almost gentle noise, yet Ignid’s tail was cleaved precisely in half, the appendage that had been about to lash at Jiyuchan and Dohyun now rolling across the ground.
With that, Jiyuchan’s mana was completely depleted, and he collapsed to the ground, leaving only Dohyun to dash toward Ignid with explosive speed.
And in that moment, Dohyun spoke.
“Since everyone’s exhausted, I suppose I should increase our numbers.”
With those words, Dohyun chuckled and began plucking strands of his own hair, infusing them with mana.
The instant the Mifu Tribe Trio saw this, their eyes widened in shock.
“That, that is!?” “Was he not human but Mifu Tribe!?” “Clone technique!?”
As the Mifu Tribe Trio stared at Dohyun with eyes wide as saucers in astonishment, sure enough, Dohyun blew on his hair with a whoosh, and instead of one, he became three.
Seeing this, the Mifu Tribe Trio gasped in shock, while Dohyun spoke as if to say they shouldn’t be surprised yet.
Dohyun had now become three, each wielding a different weapon.
The original Dohyun naturally carried the serrated sword, one of the newly created Dohyuns held the knuckles—Mountain’s Wrath—and the last one grasped the single-horned spear of Dokgakgwi, all appearing simultaneously as they cried out.
“Golden Sword!” “Eternal Flame Extinguishing Technique!” “Cheongmyeong Jichang!”
As all three shouted in unison, golden radiance erupted from the Dohyun wielding the sword, while from the one holding the spear blazed a clear, cyan-white light, and from the last one wearing the knuckles surged a desolate flame burning like the sunset.
Three distinct lights poured forth as three ultimate techniques unfolded simultaneously against Ignid.
Golden Sword Fifth Technique: Reverse Shock of Golden Light
Cheongmyeong Jichang Seventh Technique: Moonlight of Clear Radiance
Eternal Flame Extinguishing Technique Ninth Technique: Complete Annihilation Responsive Flame
Flames that would obliterate the world engulfed Ignid while a spear of cloudless sky-blue light descended like the moon, piercing downward, and a golden sword qi that defied even light itself carved through Ignid.
Whoooooosh———!!!
Craaaaaash———!!!
Screeeech———!!!
Shhhhhhhhh———!!!
The final golden sword qi carved through Ignid, tearing away flesh, and unable to endure the tremendous agony, Ignid’s mouth fell open without even a scream, burning like the sunset.
As the flames that destroyed all things consumed even Ignid, his body completely withered away and vanished.
Items dropped from that spot, and the Mifu Tribe Trio stared at the now-tripled Dohyun with their mouths agape.
Seeing the Mifu Tribe Trio with their mouths wide enough for insects to crawl in, Dohyun spoke.
“Well, how about that? Little ones.”
At Dohyun’s words, they unconsciously began clapping while speaking.
“S-so cool!” “You’re, you’re so amazing!” “Incredible!!!”
As everyone cheered for Dohyun, he felt a bit embarrassed and scratched the back of his head. Well, it wasn’t an unpleasant feeling either.
In any case, Dohyun was satisfied with his new ability, but what truly mattered was Hanalin and Jiyuchan.
Though it was only a portion of grand magic, Hanalin had succeeded in creating a star, and Jiyuchan had created a force of qi.
‘I need to work harder too.’
While Dohyun was thinking such thoughts, Hanalin and Jiyuchan muttered with expressions of utter bewilderment.
“Dohyun oppa is… three?”
“…This is hell.”
