The Devil and Witches
When God created the devil, magic was created at the same time. "Magic belongs to the demons!" This expression is not wrong, but as time went on, it wasn't just demons who were able to master magic. Humans are one of the many races that were eventually able to 'imitate' the magic of demons.Nevertheless, human ability to mimic the magic of demons is very limited. This is due to several factors, including the human lifespan being too short, the maximum amount of manna points being very limited, and also the forgetful nature that often causes human mages to lose their magical abilities if they haven't used the magic they've mastered for a long period of time.God created the devils from energy sourced from the hottest hellfire. Fire with a clean white color. Thus, the demons believed that humans, being mortal creatures with various flaws and shortcomings within them, were never worthy of imitating the 'magic' they possessed. Not only humans, but demons also deeply resent the existence o
Plan
Murrah is one of the founders of Terra. Murrah is nicknamed the Wind Devil. This nickname was not given without reason. Murrah's extraordinary offensive and defensive magical abilities have earned him the title of grand sorcerer. Not only that, Murrah is the only demon who has lived among humans for a long time. However, unlike other demons, Murrah actively shared knowledge about the magical abilities possessed by demons, aiming to enhance the lives of humans.Almost all of the simple common magic currently mastered by witches is Murra's magic. For example, dishwashing magic that leaves no food odors, magic to make sweet tea from fresh water, or even the most trivial magic that only a few people might know. That is, magic to stop a baby from crying. Although Murrah possessed various offensive magic that was even more deadly than Zu's and defensive magic in the form of an anti-matter shield, Murrah more often taught humans the various common magic he had mastered.Murra not only taught
Azzalea's old mission
Leah and her troops had arrived at the Wind Demon's Tomb ahead of time. As per Zamman's instructions, Leah then divided her 20-person force, including herself, into small teams of 2. Leah instructed each of her troops to conceal their magical power while they were in the area around the Wind Demon's Tomb.Initially, the combined Crimson Knight and Lazuardy Sword soldiers refused Leah's orders. The witches believed this would be very difficult to do, as they were not accustomed to concealing their magical abilities."We... can probably only hide our magical power for about 2 hours," said one of the soldiers."We can't hide our magical power for longer than that. Maybe we could if, after hiding our magical power for 2 hours... we took a break of about 30 minutes without using it. Hiding magical power sounds easy for someone who is used to doing it, but for beginners, it can be very difficult. Because magical power doesn't only appear when we use magic but also when our emotions change s
Exploring the Tomb of the Wind Devil - Murrah
The Tomb of the Wind Devil was built on a rocky desert area approximately five times larger than the city of Filanesia. Nevertheless, almost 85% of the tomb is built hidden underground. The tomb's shape even more closely resembles an underground labyrinth, typical of the ancient tombs of Terra's great sorcerers, filled with traps and cursed magic in some parts of the labyrinth. Not only that, but guardian orc statues were also placed in every part of the maze.After Tha and Meuz passed a 7-meter-high rock boulder inscribed with 'Tomb of the Wind Devil,' they were taken aback to find that several supporting pillars of the main building were damaged in various places. The floor was covered in scratches and even pieces from the body of the guardian orc statue.Tha and Meuz were silent for quite a while. They looked at each other, trying to guess what had really happened there."This pillar is made of marble coated with lapis lazuli crystals. How could there be attack magic or a normal at
Flood
"You're still the same. You haven't changed one bit!" said Meuz, who then walked in front of Tha."It was just a vent," Tha said so casually."You didn't even use your bow." Meuz reapplied the protective barrier for them."What now?" Tha asked.As they entered a room that was a storage place for weapons once used by Murrah during his lifetime, Meuz realized that some of the weapons there were missing. In a hurry, Meuz carefully checked the storage room to see which weapons were missing."What's wrong?" Tha asked, curious.Meuz didn't answer Tha's question and continued to carefully check every weapon in the area."Tha... there's a weapon missing!" Meuz exclaimed in a panic."During his lifetime, Murrah participated in various wars. Murrah has a habit that was commonly practiced by ancient sorcerers on Terra. When Murrah successfully defeats his opponents, he takes their weapons. He wants one type of weapon from each opponent and keeps it as proof of his victory in battle. After Murrah
A Healing Explosion
Meuz asked Tha to create plants so they could stay afloat. Quickly, Tha created some Pistia stratiotes, which actually caused them to be swept away by the current. The short roots of Pistia stratiotes apparently make it difficult for the plant to maintain its position."Where will this water take us?" Tha said in panic, trying to maintain her position on the plant that was carrying her.Meuz didn't answer Tha's question, only pointing to a whirlpool in front of them. There might be a large hole in front of them, which then sucked up the water and carried it away somewhere.Realizing that the Pistia stratiotes plants they created could not save them from the whirlpool, Tha then began to grow vines on the ceiling of the maze. Quickly, Tha and Meuz immediately grabbed onto the magical vines."Are we safe?" asked Tha. "There might be a big hole down there. I think all this water will be sucked into that hole and then go somewhere. Meuz... didn't you create this place? Do you know where th
Water and Illusion
"So... our opponent this time is a sorcerer who uses illusion magic in battle, and he will trap his opponents into his illusion magic using water as a medium." Meuz concluded after they survived the illusion magic that nearly killed them.Tha nodded, confirming Meuz's statement. "Do you have a plan to deal with a sorcerer who fights using water illusion magic? Honestly... I can barely think of any ideas to deal with it. I think air and water are the two most difficult materials to overcome. I probably wouldn't complain too much if it were earth or fire."Meuz was creating a magical seal symbol on the granite floor. Although the tip of Meuz's spear seemed unable to scratch the granite floor of the tomb, Tha knew that what Meuz was creating was a seal that could have a very fatal impact on the illusion-using sorcerer who had previously attacked them.Tha, curious about the seal Meuz was making, actually wanted to ask about it, but before Tha could ask what kind of seal Meuz was creating
Curse
"Don't focus on my arrow that has turned into ice pellets!" Tha asked Meuz to look up at the thousands of white dandelion seeds flying above them. Not only Tha and Meuz, but the illusionist wizard also looked up to see what was above him."Plants that have area explosion capabilities like you asked for earlier!"The dandelion plant's seed shape resembles a parachute, and the slightly inflated base causes the seeds to fall slowly. The only problem is that every time those dandelion seeds touch anything, or even other dandelion seeds, they explode and scatter radioactive needles in all directions.Tha had previously used the same strategy to fight a demon named Daniel, who possessed absolute defensive armor made of dark dragon scales. Tha is now applying the same technique, because Tha knows that area attacks are the most effective way to defeat an archer. Even though the risks they will face could be very fatal."He won't be able to escape!" That was said with such confidence. "If he g
Blood and corpse
"Is this fight over?" asked Meuz, who then moved away from the location of the magical lavender field Tha had created. They realized that they had turned the place into a living minefield. Anyone who tries to free the elf can be sure they will lose their life. Whether it's instantaneous or perhaps a slow process of dying."I think so," Tha replied, looking at the elf witch's body within her Death Melody Seal, which had frozen like ice with outstretched hands, some of which had turned into liquid form. The eleven users of illusion magic seemed to be trying to escape, but the coldness of Meuz's magic had already frozen them.She then continued walking, with Meuz in front of her. They walked with hurried steps, as both felt a very strong magical energy emanating from the opposite direction of the tomb corridor they were previously heading toward. In the tomb corridor, which had become almost a dark labyrinth, Tha and Meuz had to walk in near total darkness. Meuz forbade Tha from lighting
Former Guardian Monk
The faint sound of shoes tapping against the granite floor echoed from afar. The sound became clearer and clearer as time went on. Not long after, Tha and Meuz began to see the shadow of someone walking toward them."Wow... I didn't expect you guys to succeed in killing Yurei. Even though he is an elf race sorcerer who has lived for almost 1000 years and possesses extraordinary abilities in offensive magic with the basic element of water. His illusion magic has also... even claimed many victims. You're all amazing!"A voice was heard from the direction of the corridor in front of them. The faint shadow became clearer and clearer over time. That's when Tha and Meuz were truly surprised to learn their next opponent. If the elemental wind user was the sorcerer in their attack magic, the sorcerer who had slaughtered the B-rank sorcerers whose bodies lay along the corridor, and a sorcerer they knew had a brutal fighting style based on the type of wounds on the victims' bodies left behind.
