646.
“He’s coming!”
“He’s breaking through both barriers and traps at incredible speed!”
At the Magic Studies Department students’ shouts, the remaining 4th and 5th years made grim expressions.
“Damn it! Isn’t he in a state where he’s summoned tons of familiars to deal with the Great Spirit of Water right now?”
“What sin did we commit in our past lives for such a monster to enter as our junior!”
Wailing sounds could be heard from here and there.
These weren’t simply joking words.
The 4th and 5th years truly felt like crying.
But their morale didn’t break like before.
It wasn’t because they had renewed their determination compared to earlier.
It certainly wasn’t because they had steeled their hearts after experiencing overwhelming strength.
A fire had been lit.
“That Runba guy! Acting cool all by himself!”
One of the 5th year Summoning Department students shouted as if frustrated.
The fire Leo had lit in Runba eventually spread to the other 4th and 5th years as well.
Lil and Elena, who were leading the 4th and 5th years.
Probably even if they spent their entire lives, their classmates would never be able to surpass those two.
The same was true for Leo.
“Could we beat Leo if we reincarnated about ten times?”
“Even ten reincarnations would be impossible!”
They felt the gap keenly.
Even now, they didn’t think they could stand shoulder to shoulder with Leo.
But Runba’s words caused great ripples in the hearts of the 4th and 5th years.
‘Let’s at least earn respect as seniors.’
It wasn’t simply about earning respect from Leo alone.
At some point.
It had become words that included the 3rd years who had chased up to their backs as well.
“Those guys have been getting their heads smashed by Leo continuously since they enrolled!”
The 3rd years who had to compete directly with Leo.
But unlike themselves who had set limits after seeing Elena and Lil, the 3rd years showed no such signs.
Could they remain dignified in front of such juniors like this?
When such doubts arose.
The 4th and 5th years changed their thinking.
They abandoned the complacent thought that they might be able to become Heroes just by staying still like this.
They also threw away the thought that they would spend their lives just following behind Elena and Lil.
Eren, who was serving as strategist, shouted.
“No matter how much of a Leo he is, this is a situation where Senior Runba has even summoned a Great Spirit! It’s different from before!”
“Everyone get your heads straight!”
Takhon also chimed in.
The vanguards standing at the front widened their eyes.
They were filled with the thought that it would be different from just before.
“Drain Leo’s mana as much as possible!”
“We win as long as we steal the key anyway!”
“Let’s just clash with him!”
“Yeah!”
Morale soared.
Takhon, who had boosted the 4th and 5th years’ will, stood at the front.
Then Eren approached Niel.
“Senior Niel, is there anything that might fluster Leo?”
“Something that might fluster Young Master Leo?”
“Yes. Just like how Leo flustered Senior Niel with strange words earlier.”
At Eren’s words, Niel, who had been pondering, clenched her fist.
“It’s do or die anyway.”
“Oh? There is something?”
Eren made a bright expression.
Niel nodded at that.
“If it’s this, I can probably fluster him.”
Niel, who made a resolute expression, re-gripped her sword and took a deep breath.
Then Leo revealed himself at the front.
Whoosh-
Golden flames rose from Leo’s body and then seeped in.
“It’s that strange Aura Armor!”
“Is he planning to clash head-on again!”
“How tough!”
“Mages! The prepared magic!”
At Takhon’s words, the Magic Studies Department students all released their spells at once.
“Gravity!”
Leo, who had been charging at tremendous speed, hesitated.
Tremendous gravity pressed down on Leo.
‘Linked magic.’
Leo’s eyes narrowed.
The Gravity magic that all the 4th and 5th years had cast together was certainly powerful.
Leo, who was quickly reverse-calculating the magic formula, let out an exclamation.
The magic cancellation code was changing in real time.
As if they had predicted Leo’s formula calculation speed.
It narrowly evaded his spell-breaking attempts.
Of course, normally he would have used magic power to forcibly overlay formulas and break it.
But unfortunately, he was currently in a situation where his mana was insufficient due to summoning high-level magical beasts.
Thud!
Leo, unable to overcome the weight, fell to his knees.
Craaaaaash-!
As if an object of tremendous weight had been slammed into the ground, it dug deep into the floor.
‘Excellent.’
Leo curled up the corners of his mouth and raised his aura.
Tremendous strength overcame the gravity.
Seeing that sight, Eren’s face turned pale.
“No way, how brutish!”
“Is that even possible?”
Screams erupted from among the Magic Studies Department students as well.
Even though he was receiving pressure that would be enough to not just burst but crush an ordinary person’s body, Leo was moving.
A 5th year Knight Academy student who saw that sight sparkled his eyes.
“As expected of Leo! An overwhelmingly trained body overwhelms even magic!”
“Is this the time for praise!”
“Hah! Don’t get excited! Right now Leo is squeezing out all his strength! Probably there won’t be any magic attacks or summoning techniques! No wide-area attacks! Don’t worry!”
The club president of the physical training club, The Power, spoke confidently.
Bang bang bang bang!
Leo began charging again.
Seeing that sight, Takhon said.
“If he swings his fist in that state, won’t the weight he’s enduring come at us as damage?”
“That’s right!”
“…Wouldn’t that make wide-area attacks possible?”
“…Is that so?”
“Everyone prepare!”
At those words, Leo drew his sword and swung it with all his might.
Kwagagagagagagagang-!
Leo’s tremendous sword strike, enhanced by Gravity’s weight, swept over the 4th and 5th years.
Literally overwhelming physical force that transcended even magic.
“Block it!”
“Leo Flobe! I’m once again moved by your trained body! But as the club president of The Power! I, Halken Rack, have also trained my body at Lumern for a long time! The power of my trained body…”
Crack!
“Gueek!”
Halken, struck by Leo’s swinging arm, flew straight into the sky.
“Takhon! Should we dispel the magic?”
When a 5th year Magic Studies student asked urgently, Takhon shook his head.
“No! Keep suppressing Leo! Summoning Department! Use your summons to target the key Leo has!”
At those words, the spirits tried to swarm Leo.
At that moment.
Flash-!
Leo’s body became light.
Eren’s eyes widened.
“What is this?”
“The magic isn’t working!”
“Is it Dispel?”
“No! The magic is cast! But it’s not taking effect!”
“What do you mean!”
The Gravity magic was still cast on Leo’s body.
But the magic effect itself had been nullified.
‘Immunity.’
Immunity magic.
It was Luna’s magic that ignored specific magic effects entirely.
Leo had analyzed the magic formula and used Immunity magic to grant himself immunity to Gravity.
“Magic that immunizes against the magic effect itself!”
Eren, who had been analyzing Leo, bit his lips tightly.
‘Ho? He figured that out after seeing it once?’
Leo let out an exclamation of admiration as he glanced at Eren.
‘As expected, the potential of the 4th and 5th years isn’t to be underestimated either. So?’
Leo curled up the corners of his mouth.
‘How are you planning to respond?’
The summons that had been swarming Leo were blocked by the magic Leo used.
“Niel!”
Then Takhon blocked Leo’s path and called out to Niel.
Takhon, gripping twin swords, wore a determined expression.
“It won’t be as easy as before!”
“I’m looking forward to it too? Your coordination.”
Leo was smiling as he looked at Niel.
Niel took a deep breath and pointed her sword at Leo.
“Senior Niel. Are you confident you won’t panic like before…”
“I won’t panic with that method anymore! Say what you want to say!”
“Ho? Then you really are with Senior Marcell…”
“That’s right! I decided to date Marcell! Are you satisfied?”
“…”
Leo momentarily wore a dumbfounded expression.
He was momentarily flustered by Niel’s boldness in getting angry and declaring it instead.
‘Good! I bought time…’
Niel, who was inwardly celebrating, suddenly looked back.
And her face contorted.
“No! What are you doing getting flustered too!”
“No! How can we not be flustered! Is that real?”
“Weren’t you two mortal enemies?”
“You were fighting until before winter break last year!”
“What on earth happened during winter break!”
Commotion broke out among the 4th and 5th years.
At that moment, Leo, who had regained his senses, quickly charged.
Kwagagagagagak-!
Then sword energy like a gale blocked Leo’s path.
Takhon, gripping twin swords, was blocking Leo.
Whoosh-!
Niel’s flame aura helped Takhon.
Leo curled up the corners of his mouth and tried to swing his sword at the two.
At that moment.
Whoosh-!
“…?”
“…?”
Bewilderment colored Niel and Takhon’s faces.
Leo furrowed his brow.
He had clearly tried to swing his arm, but swung his leg instead.
Leo tensed all the muscles in his body.
When he tried to swing his right arm, his right leg moved.
His left arm also moved differently from his left leg.
Besides that, when he tried to smell, his vision moved.
Whoosh-!
Roar-!
Flame aura burst forth from Leo’s sword.
Seeing this, a Magic Studies student screamed.
“What! The sensory disruption magic doesn’t work either?”
“No! He just got used to the disrupted senses!”
“He’s really a monster!”
‘Sensory disruption magic.’
Normally, it would be blocked by magic resistance before penetrating the sensory system.
But this magic had worked on Leo.
‘The effect is sensory disruption magic, but… the form of the magic is Gravity.’
It had just become perfectly immune.
The Gravity magic was still cast on Leo.
The 4th and 5th years had used this in reverse, keeping the form of the Gravity formula while only changing the effect.
It was magic that precisely pierced through the loophole of Immunity magic.
Before that, the ability to modify the formula of combination magic itself was also excellent.
‘Right. No matter how powerful the magic, it’s still 5,000-year-old magic. If they wanted to create a strategy, they could create one anytime.’
But if they had been those who despaired at the overwhelming and unreasonable gap, they wouldn’t have been able to find a countermeasure this quickly.
‘It seems they’re properly fired up.’
Leo curled up the corners of his mouth.
A small opening was created by the disrupted senses.
Niel and Takhon didn’t miss that small opening and dug in.
Slash-!
The string of the key hanging at Leo’s waist was cut off.
Clack-!
“Got it! I got it!”
Leshiang, a 5th year Magic Studies Department student on a broomstick, snatched the key that had been floating in the air and shouted.
“Leshiang! Run!”
“We’ll block Leo!”
The 4th and 5th years blocked Leo’s path.
Runba summoned Undine to grab Leo’s ankle.
The remaining 4th and 5th years had made a plan and achieved what they wanted.
‘Should I chase them?’
The moment Leo thought that.
All the 4th and 5th years were warped away.
The professors had declared they passed the test.
Seeing that, Leo nodded his head.
‘At the point where they realized their shortcomings and pushed me this far, they should be considered to have passed the test.’
Leo curled up the corners of his mouth.
“Excellent.”
As a senior, Leo praised his juniors’ remarkable progress and turned around.
***
“You guys! I won’t let this slide!”
Peck- Peck- Peck-
Bound tightly in darkness, Undine muttered with a voice mixed with resentment.
Fiora, who had climbed on top of her head, pecked at Undine’s head wildly with her beak.
Larel sighed while resting a club on her shoulder.
“This one. She’s persistent.”
“She clearly hasn’t been beaten enough.”
Ista said while showing off her muscles.
“Still chattering away? Your pride is impressive.”
Leo, who had arrived at the scene, chuckled and said.
“I’ll make you regret this! I am the ruler of the great ocean! The deep sea spirit Undine! Soon my subordinate spirits who have subdued the fire spirits will come to punish you! It’ll be too late to regret it then!”
It was when Undine was screaming.
An enormous number of water droplets began forming around Undine and soon transformed into supreme water spirits.
Seeing this, Undine cheered triumphantly.
“Ahahahahaha! My subordinates have come! Prepare yourself! Leo Flobe!”
-Why is that spirit in such a miserable state again?
Elsi suddenly appeared above Leo’s head.
Seeing Elsi, Undine shouted.
“What? You! How dare a lower spirit look down on me!”
Undine showed a sharp reaction.
She seemed unable to tolerate a lower spirit interfering between the Great Spirits and the 3 Great Familiars.
At that reaction, Elsi made a serious expression.
-Are Great Spirits originally this obsessed with hierarchy? It would be nice if everyone got along well.
Elsi, who had been alone since birth, wanted to get along well with all spirits regardless of rank.
-Deep sea spirit. You’re hated because you treat lower spirits so roughly.
“How dare a lower spirit lecture me?! Everyone, what are you doing! Give that lower spirit a taste of heat…”
Whack!
“…?”
A club swung by one of the supreme water spirits struck Undine’s head.
For a moment, Undine, who couldn’t understand the situation, made a stupid expression.
“What’s happening right now…”
Smack-!
“Ugh?!”
Thud! Thwack thwack thwack! Thud! Thud!
“Kyaaaaaaah!”
The water spirits didn’t utter angry words.
As if even speaking was a waste of time.
They just silently did their best to beat their former master with clubs.
Watching this, Elsi made a troubled expression.
-Both Ista and Undine. Just how badly did they treat the lower spirits for gentle spirits to all become like this?
Kirran muttered while watching Elsi, who had succeeded in having both fire and water spirits as subordinates.
-I feel incredibly grateful to my father.
“All of a sudden?”
-Yeah. If I hadn’t been kicked out of Fairy Land, I think I would have ended up like that.
Kirran, who had been kicked out of Fairy Land for causing trouble, seriously reflected on himself.
Seeing this, Leo chuckled.
“You’ve matured.”
