NOVEL NEXT chapter 32
32 – Wizard Frank (3)
I never thought I would make another contract with the devil.
I couldn’t help it.
I honestly didn’t know that high-level demons would aim for Fran.
If you sacrificed your life once last time, you will question whether you can sacrifice it again.
But the demons were all good.
I don’t know if the demons are hukou, or the lives of the undead have the same value as the lives of ordinary people, but a contract with the devil is a good tool to use as an undead.
[Do you think you can stand against me in that state?]
And listening to the black magician’s words, the demon king intentionally tried to kill Fran.
If you think about why the warrior has a lot of friends, why is it a franc?
Basically, Fran’s personality wasn’t bad compared to the Sword Saints and Changsungs, and when the hero’s party went awry, Fran would have actively intervened rather than just sit by like a professor.
In addition, the professor who became the archmage when Frank died was already a wizard who was close to transcendence.
She said that it was better to give a promising mage the chance to create two transcendental ones than to receive the finale herself when she was only a few steps away from transcending.
However, since there was no such prospect, she had to become a great wizard.
…Then, how did the Demon King’s army know about this and try to kill Fran?
As if he had seen through the future.
Also, for some reason, even if the personality is not good, the swordsman, who has the best talent, was left alone.
Wouldn’t it be better to kill all the promising ones?
There were so many things I didn’t know.
Is it because, before returning, he had no interest in anything other than destroying the royal family?
I finished my thoughts here and turned my head.
[…]
The demon contracted this time is the silent demon Renove.
It had a form with its mouth tightly wrapped in a bandage.
Because he does not open his mouth, the content of the contract is not revealed.
The reason I made a contract with this devil is simple.
It’s because I don’t want Fran to be swayed by my contract.
It’s been a long time since I risked my life and received the price from the devil.
The content of the transaction is to give me the vitality to move.
A little bit of magic here.
However, this is not enough to catch a high-level demon.
Rather than risking their lives, active action was possible only when they risked something bigger.
Then why, then, rush into a battle that has no chance of winning?
There was a way.
“franc.”
“Yeah?”
I put the root of the star in her hand.
Of course, I didn’t completely hand it over, but I connected mana so that she could handle the origin of the star.
Fran noticed why he was handing this to me.
“You’ll know what kind of artifact this is by watching.”
“Absolutely.”
“An item that amplifies mana, if so, rather than what I have without a handful of mana… .”
her eyes twitched.
“You’d better write.”
“Lord, you don’t have to!”
“It’s not about giving.”
Fran was startled when she asked why she was giving me such a valuable item.
…Of course, why are you giving this good thing to someone else?
It’s not the strength you can handle right now anyway.
I’m just trying to make use of your abundant mana.
“Close your mind.”
“What are you thinking? Argal?”
“I plan to amplify your mana to catch that high-level demon.”
“That, that!”
Frank looked unsure.
I knew it well because I saw it all the time.
I knew how difficult and terribly difficult the mana amplification was.
…In my heart, I didn’t want to burden Fran.
I also wanted to deal with that high-level demon by hand.
But it was a bunch.
My body is so broken.

Just like Bessia, who was subjected to torture magic in the dungeon.
If I push myself even a little further, death is just my condition.
Even stabbing the dagger one more time was meaningless.
If he consumed more of his life force, which had already been depleted, it wouldn’t be strange if he died instantly.
If you die against this opponent, Fran will be exposed in a defenseless state.
The best way is this.
To finish everything neatly.
She needed her strength.
“Only then can we live.”
Frank bit his lip.
An unbearable burden falls on her.
He didn’t have a bizarre personality that could perform acrobatics in dangerous situations like Changsung, nor did he have solid mental strength and transcendent talent like Swordsong.
Frank had little experience in dealing with a situation where he had to risk his entire life at once with his own magic.
[Huh, that’s interesting, being a wizard and knowing how to make a contract with the devil, so I prepared something a little bigger.]
The demons didn’t just watch us.
Taking care of my strength, I gathered demons to throw a huge bomb.
A black magic circle decorates the surroundings.
Fran saw that and immediately started pouring mana into the star’s roots.
Unlike me, who had absolutely no mana, the base of the star was idle from the start.
“Don’t get excited, take it step by step.”
“Ugh… !”
“I can block black magic. What you have to do now is to use the strongest magic to kill that demon at once.”
I did my best to assist Franc.
He gave advice on the flow of magic and even looked at miscalculations made in mana amplification.
Whoops!
A large demonic explosion was heard.
Half of the Magi consumed by blocking one shot this time.
The advanced demons listened to our conversation and prepared for the next attack without taking any action.
careless look.
[Is it a magic that will kill me in one shot? Okay, I’m curious, so I’ll take a look, but you’ll die before then.]
A larger demon gathered.
The impatient franc eventually made a mistake in the process of amplification.
I had to keep putting in a certain amount of mana, but it was probably because I wanted to do it faster, so I poured too much mana.
Weee… .
The movement of the root of the rotating star gradually slowed down.
Frank’s hands trembled.
It was the worst.
Before he could use any magic, he couldn’t even amplify it and stopped.
“Hey, how about this, what should I do… .”
“Calm down. Frank, there is a way.”
I encourage the Fran slowly.
I expected it, but it seems to have failed due to mental limitations and experiential problems.
can’t help it
I had to write in a way I didn’t want to write as much as possible.
Black magic has many uses.
or raise the body.
or curse others
Or simply project with great force.
Among them, there was an evil power called mind control.
“What method?”
Fran welcomed the other way.
It seems that it was difficult to overcome the burden.
If so, there is nothing you can do
It’s a method I hate to use, but nothing was more certain than this.
“I will move your body and mana.”
“Yes Yes?! Is that possible?”
“It is possible. Of course you just have to allow it.”
To control other people’s minds is to look into other people’s heads.
Therefore, I know Fran’s memories.
“You will reveal your memories to me.”
“…Gwa, it’s okay. If only we could survive here.”
She felt a bit repulsed by the fact that I even looked into her memories, but she knew it wasn’t the time to argue.
Be sure to do so. Fran.
He prepared the black magic right away.
A magic circle appears behind her.
Black magic that looks ominous even at first glance.
Even though Fran was trembling with anxiety, she put up with it and trusted me.
Having come this far, there was no reason to attack her.
Soon, the mind control magic is completed.
Since I poured all my magic into this, it’s the last resort I can use right now.
Her and my mind are connected.
Frank’s body slumped.
The demons who were watching my black magic muttered something suspicious.
[Your level of black magic is not normal? Aren’t you supposed to be a black wizard, not a wizard?]
“It is noisy.”
[…that doesn’t make sense.]
Fran’s mouth opened, not mine.
Her mind and mine were fully connected, and her mana began to move fully with my power.
Black magic that even those high-level demons are astonished.
[Mind control? You’re reproducing something I haven’t seen since the Death King used it.]
“It wouldn’t be the time to joke around like that.”
Mind control was not a power that could be used so easily.
As powerful as it was, the side effects were great.
Everything from Fran’s memory to her bodily sensations and personality blended into my mind.
She was abandoned in the Mage Tower from the time she was born.
One of the magic tower’s wizards picked her up and raised her.
In fact, a child born and raised in the Mage Tower.
The girl’s life was no different from living in the Mage Tower.
Put those memories aside for now.
It wasn’t important right now, and it was a memory Fran didn’t bring up in words.
She raises her little hand over the base of the star.
The most important thing was the abundant mana in the wizard’s body.
Of course, at the end of the forced march of 3 days, Franc was also in a state of considerable depletion of mana.
However, compared to my body, where not even the dust of mana existed, it was much better.
Therefore, I was assured of victory.
It shows a different level of control.
If I, who was originally a transcendentalist, could manipulate a body in much better condition, what would be the result?
showed here
The base of the star begins to rotate as if it emits light.
Woo woo woo woo woo-!!!
[Do you think I will leave it alone!]
No, you already gave enough leeway.
You have to come and try to stop it now, what does that mean?
An enormous amount of mana, even if I amplified it for 10 minutes, covered Fran’s entire body.
My eyes were dyed blue, more omnipotence than stabbing my hand with a dagger. The power one step ahead moves.
like.
It feels like I’ve regained the abilities of a transcendent before returning, even for a moment.
He snapped his fingers easily.

Just-
All the mana in Fran’s body is hostile towards that one demon.
You don’t even need a magic circle.
Only the storm of mana.
It pours down on those demons.
[Quaaah!]
– Boaaagh!
I started crushing that solid and solid body.
At first, the screams of demons could be heard, but at some point it became a mass of meat, and even a corpse could not be found.
…the power of transcendence that I haven’t felt in a long time.
Will I be able to regain this power?
Having killed a high-ranking demon, the mental control was naturally released.
It was not a black magic that would be maintained for a long time in the first place.
When the connection with Fran was severed, she briefly regained lost consciousness and took stock of the situation.
“Is the demon really dead?”
“yes.”
“It is true that he survived. Us? Yes? Right?!”
“Because it is.”
“It’s really great. Argal! I didn’t get to see how you dealt with that demon, but it’s really amazing!”
Fran hugged me tightly and expressed her delight.
Before sharing that joy, a few thoughts occurred to me.
…If there is one thing I felt while controlling her body.
That there is a quality that leads to transcendence.
No matter how much I manipulated her body and amplified her mana with the base of the star, it was difficult to handle the power to transcendence.
This is only possible if her body has that level of talent.
Later, I thought about using this method to draw transcendent power, but mind control is a power that should not be abused.
It has fatal side effects.
If you repeat it often, eventually there comes a time when you can’t even tell who is who because each other’s mind is assimilated.
Only this time, the first and the last.
Regardless, Fran was still unable to contain her joy.
I thought I would die just a moment ago, but I survived.
But that wasn’t it.
A very small Magi that is thoroughly hidden.
I knew that it was a hopeless fact for me, who knew what kind of sensation it was.
“Here, if everyone survives, together… !”
“Fran, you need to be alert.”
Feeling that my words were heavy, Fran stopped her good mood again, pondered, and interpreted my words in the best possible way.
“Yes, we haven’t even escaped here yet.”
“No, that’s not it.”
…this was too harsh.
To the extent that even an immortal country could not handle it.
I thought it was over with a contract that risked my life.
that wasn’t the last
Of the three high-ranking demons, one was killed together.
Two of them headed towards us.
I felt the shadow of an assassin behind me.
I used every last resort.
But a bigger obstacle got in our way.
I didn’t have more energy than this.
I had to make a decision.
“…please don’t die.”
“Yeah? Why the hell is this for me… .”
He hung the root of a star on her.
It’s because if I’m not using this now, there’s no chance that Fran will survive alone.
Pushed the franc out.
The moment she rolls back.
It was only then that the life hidden to the extreme was revealed.
Fu-wook!
A sharp dagger pierced my heart.
The hidden assassin appeared.
