SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar



It was a despairing sight.

In the vast embrace of the cosmos, with the shimmering stars bearing witness to the event at hand, two entities stood face-to-face with each other.

On one end was Libra, a Constellation, the very embodiment of balance in the world.

She was coated with stars and an inscrutable amount of energy that made her form brim with power. Her colossal form dwarfed the planets around her, and she appeared even larger than the sun.

All in all, she was massive. And the energy that radiated from her was also enough to undulate the void of space that surrounded her.

However… she wasn't the only one who stood confidently in the confrontation.

Right in front of her was a strange creature, one who seemed to know no fear, nor understand her place when faced with sheer power.

Karlia.

Karlia floated in space, her crimson form like a mere dot—no, even smaller—in the presence of an entity like Libra.

She seemed much smaller than an ant would be to a human, more insignificant than a speck of dust.

Her entire being, with her tail and bat-like wings, along with her long black hair, glowing violet eyes, and other succubus-like features, couldn't be more insignificant in the grand canvas of the world.

Yet… she stood.

"You are really challenging me? You?" Libra's voice was enough to make the planets around her tremble in her presence.

Even the sun seemed to flicker as she spoke, a testament to the sheer might she possessed. One could say the world was holding its breath as she uttered her statement.

As one who was boundless within the confines of her existence, a mere solar system like this could hardly contain her power.

It was this very Libra that some unknown succubus dared to challenge.

"You threatened to kill Lewis… made him nearly regret his choice for a peaceful resolution, and interrupted such a wonderful moment. I don't think I can overlook your actions any longer."

The audacity of this creature!

It made no sense that an entity like Karlia would say such words despite being confronted with the power that Libra possessed.

Her brashness could only be one of two things.

One: Karlia was a fool who simply couldn't judge the power before her, and how hers was nothing in comparison.

Two: Karlia was confident that her abilities matched, if not exceeded the power she was experiencing.

The second one was impossible, considering their difference in status.

Everyone knew the Constellations were second only to the progenitors of the Roots; Aether and Nether.

No one else came close.

"You must be an imbecile who can't judge with her two eyes and all her remaining senses the power that stands before her. I suppose eradicating you, as well as your Lewis, perhaps this entire sector as well, will be enough to remove the stain of your pitiful existence."

To Libra, this woman… this Lewis man… this entire world that had been altered… they had gone to far.

Removing them completely was the best solution.

"And so it shall b—"

~WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSHHHHHH!!!~

Before Libra could utter anything more, a deafening sound traveled in the void of space where sound could not travel, instantly shattering the barrier of natural law.

In a flash—no, even faster—the one who traveled with such veracity closed in on the towering entity that was already at the conclusion of her speech.

"Shut up."

Those were the words she uttered before the next law-defying event occurred.

~WHAAAAAMMMMMM!!!~

A single punch from what would appear to be lesser than an ant connected to the face of Libra, instantly creating a vortex of spatial collapse.

An echo of chaos radiated from the point of impact, sending a shockwave of unbridled destruction flying across the area.

The end result?

~BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!~

All of creation shivered as the first punch connected—the sight of a mortal landing a solid hit on a boundless one.

Ah, but this wasn't a mortal, was it?

Perhaps that was the mistake of the Constellation Libra, whose massive form was now being sent flying across the edge of the galaxy.

No… this woman wasn't a mere succubus. She wasn't simply a part of creation. She was by no means mortal either.

This was a being who had clawed her way up; from being a dirty cowardly crimson demon… to someone who had fought with god.

Karlia the Crimson Succubus… also known as The Immortal One!

"You're not getting away with this! I just wanted us to change the venue." Karlia's voice echoed across the vastness of space as she tracked Libra, who was moving faster than even light thanks to the first blow that Karlia dealt.

"Balance or not… you've crossed the line!"

~WHOOOOSSSHHHH!~

At a speed that defied laws, Karlia glided through space, chasing the being she had sent flying.

In no time at all, she caught up to Libra, who was still stunned by the hit she had received.

Perhaps it was because Constellations weren't used to being attacked, it took a while for Libra to register what had just happened.

She… Libra… had been hit in the face by someone.

What? Did that even make any sense?

As Libra was still flying in the void-like watch of space, she struggled to raise her aching head and look above her.

That was when she saw Karlia, flying right overhead, her fist clenched for another round.

"W-what do you think you're—?!"

~BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!~

Before she could get another word in, Libra received another resounding hit that sent her head spinning and her entire body convulsing.

This blow chipped at her very essence, affecting her core to the point where an indescribable amount of pain surged through her.

"Ack!"

It hurt to an unspeakable extent.

And that blow sent Libra crashing down to the abyss… what is known by most as a Black Hole.
