SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar

1306 Majestic Grandeur

'What can we do now?'

A certain Midas had a particular thought as he looked at the enemy in front of him.

His vision was blurry, but he could clearly see all that was happening.

Ciara had fainted due to the heavy strain of her Magic on her. Aloe was also out of commission. Edward and everyone else was drained of their energy.

One after the other, they were collapsing and losing consciousness.

It was clear that they could do nothing.

'Then… what can I do?'

He knew it already—that he was currently the strongest among everyone present.

He currently had the most amount of Aether, even after giving up most of it to assist Ciara in her Magic.

Still… would it be enough?

Would it even come close? He knew the answer already.

'It's not enough. My power… the power of my people… it's not enough.'

Against Legris, he too was powerless.

~So what now? Will you give up and let everything die?~

As soon as he heard Leo's voice within him, his heart thumped slowly.

~I can give you Aether, but what really matters is how you use it. What you can do with it.~

His heart raced even more.

~So what will it be, Kuzon? What is your answer?~

Silence pervaded the conversation between the two as Kuzon's vision began to return to him.

He could see the threat in front of him, and he perfectly understood the mission.

What more did he need?

"Haha… hahaha… haaaa…" Chuckling at himself, he slowly rose to his feet.

Everyone else had fallen, so only he stood among their powerless bodies.

"There's no need to ask me. As long as the mission remains… I won't stop."

A wide grin was on his face despite the obvious despair that Legris represented.

None of that seemed to matter anymore.

Kuzon only cared about one thing—the mission!

"Seems you've got a screw loose. You want to stand against me?" Legris asked, one brow raised in confusion.

After he had just defeated a Constellation, effortlessly beaten all the Hosts, and nearly began consuming the entire Aether Tree, Legris thought that everyone would have understood their place.

But it seemed one Midas had yet to fully comprehend the difference between them.

"What will you do? Mage Mode? Your Emperor's Transfiguration? Original Magic?" Legris taunted.

No matter what was done, the results would remain unchanged.

It was this absolute confidence that caused Legris to wait and see what would happen.

"Come on, Midas boy! Show me what—!"

"Primeval Magic…" Kuzon whispered as he slowly raised his head and stared at Legris with his golden eyes.

Everything around Kuzon began to turn golden, and his body was no exception.

His hair rose upward, and lines that appeared to be cracks appeared around his eyes as the rest of his body took on the purest form of gold imaginable.

No, even beyond imagination.

Was this his Primeval Magic? No… not yet.

"… [Majestic Grandeur]."

~VWUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSHHHHHHH!!!~

In that very instant, a burst of golden light radiated throughout the Constellation Realm.

Power unlike anything Kuzon had ever unleashed burst out at once, shaking everything within the realm.

And once the cackles of rabid energies came to rest, the grand sight became clear.

Kuzon's Golden Palace has now manifested in reality—a domain that was now existent in the Constellation Realm.

It meant only one thing.

"This entire place… the Constellation Realm… has become my domain."

If the various universes of the Aether Tree were branches, and the Root was where Aether resided, then the Constellation Realm could be considered to be the trunk.

The trunk was connected to all the branches.

… And Kuzon now controlled all of it.

"Impressive. But so what? Nothing much has changed, has it?" Legris chuckled to himself.

Even the Constellations controlled this domain, and they ultimately lost.

The same could apply to the lone Midas.

"You don't seem to understand…" Kuzon smiled as he stared at Legris with his glowing eyes.

"This is my reality. It is mine to weave… like a thread." Kuzon raised his hand, and suddenly the very concept of distance vanished, making Kuzon appear right in front of Legris.

"Hehehe! You—!"

Just as Legris was about to hit Kuzon due to his superior speed, the concept of relative speed began to crumble.

It was all rewritten by Kuzon.

~BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!~

The one who gave the hit was Kuzon, sending Legris flying for a supposed infinite distance thanks to how much he had warped reality.

"The only one I can not influence is you." Kuzon rushed towards Legris in a flash.

Almost like teleportation, he was right behind the recoiling opponent.

"Everything else is under my command."

~WHOOOOOOSH!!~

Legris tried to launch his blow towards Kuzon again, but the concept of direction was changed, and he ended up diverting the force of space to its inverse.

In essence…

~BOOOOOOM!!~

… Legris hit himself!

"Tch. I don't have to take this."

Legris opened up his palm and a black orb formed on top of it nearly instantly.

It was another [Seed of the End].

"Let's see how you handle this." Legris smiled, launching the dark sphere towards Kuzon like a bullet.

However…

~WHOOOOOMM!!~

It appeared in the opposite direction and hit Legris from behind.

"O-ow!" Legris yelled, feeling the sharp sting behind him.

Of course, since he was currently made of the same properties as the Seed, he wasn't going to be destroyed, but that also meant he could be affected by it.

"Your 'Nothing' affects you. As long as I exist in this domain, I can control the flow of this reality."

Hence, it left Legris trapped in a precarious situation.

"Use your power, and they will only serve to hurt you. Don't use them, and I will act."

In the depths of despot, Kuzon had managed to flip the tables.

He was winning.

[A/N]

Well, we finally see Kuzon's broken Primeval Magic. Awesome stuff!

Now how will Legris handle this? Or will it be Kuzon's win

Let's find out!
