SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar



'What powerful Mana...' Kuzon thought to himself, staring intently at the Royal who stood a good distance from him.

As the golden light flickered off his body, he knew the power was nothing to scoff at.

'It's about the same level as the Midas Royalty in my world. It seems that hasn't changed here...'

However, despite that pedestal, Kuzon didn't seem to fazed. After all...

'It's not going to be a problem for me.' A smirk formed on his face.

Kendrick felt an unsettling emotion swirl inside him as he stared at the enemy he had to execute.

The crime of impersonating a Midas was the gravest offense one could ever commit. The crime increased in severity when it came to doing the same for Royalty.

It was highly unusual for anyone to even think of doing the former, talkless of the latter.

'I've only heard talks of people doing it perhaps a century ago. But no one in this day and age tries it...'

Yet, this young man attempted doing something so foolish.

'He still won't put off his disguise despite being caught. He's getting on my nerves!' Kendrick clenched his fist and glared so deeply at the man before them.

If looks could kill, Kuzon would be dead many times over.

"L-let us be of some use to you, my Prince!" Darius blurted out as the battle between the both of them were about to unfold.

The Deputy Leader most likely wanted to remain relevant in the fight.

Unfortunately for him...

"Judging by the surge of energy I sensed, the likes of you won't be able to handle him. While it is questionable how a lowlife could attain such a level of power, I will admit that he is strong." Prince Kendrick took a glance at his subordinates.

And then, returning them to Kuzon, he narrowed his gaze and spoke.

"I'll be the one taking care of this trash. The rest of you can kill every witness he—"

>BOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!<

Before Kendrick could complete his words, an eruption interrupted them, sending a massive gust of wind flying his way.

It was immense, almost to the point of being overwhelming... and all of that power came from a single location.

"If any of you even attempt to touch those people, you're going to die." Kuzon answered, almost murderously.

'He dares stare at me with those eyes?!' The Prince could feel the blood in his veins boil at a terrible rate.

'No, let's not get impatient...' Kendrick told himself.

"Oh? Nice words you have there. Can you back it up."

He needed to test him.

In a flash, a golden blade appeared out of thin air and flew in the direction of a random villager that knelt among the hundred thousand others.

The blade swept through the air, closing in the distance like it was nothing. Within a moment, it would reach and spew blood all over the ground.

However...

"Why did you have to do that?" The opponent's voice echoed as soon as the highly improbable sight occured.

... The blade was instantly shattered to tiny pieces the moment it went past Kuzon.

"Now I'll have to kill you... Prince Kendrick." Kuzon sighed, his hand covering his face. "I don't like taking back my words, after all."

'What?!'

Before Kendrick could even respond to the extremely conceited words of the imposter, another voice exploded.

"The impudence!" Darius roared instantly, most likely infuriated that a mere imposter would address a Royal that way.

It vexed the prince to no end. Why didn't people just know their place?

"Darius, why are you still here? Yiu were already given your instructions, weren't you? You and the other Inquisition members... kill off the witnesses."

Kendrick's body exploded more Mana, and he made a stance that showed how prepared he was for battle.

A deep frown occupied his face and his eyes told of wounded pride.

"I'll take care of this vermin."

>WHOOOOOOOOOOSSSHHHH<

In a flash, Kendrick appeared right in front of Kuzon, his hand nearing his face at a remarkable pace.

>BOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!<

One moment, he was about to completely crush his opponent's skull by breaking it apart with his grip alone, and then bashing it on the ground, and the next moment, he was simply crushing the ground underneath him.

Kuzon was nowhere to be seen.

The earth shivered, receiving the brunt of Kendrick's rage. Everyone standing or kneeling could feel the imbalance caused by his attack.

Still, of what use was it when the target wasn't even reached?

"I'm right here." Kuzon smiled, now floating above his opponents.

"I must say... it feels good to look down on my opponents like this. I can see the appeal."

Kendrick's rage instantly grew.

So far he had thought of remaining collected, exhibiting the dignity of Midas Royalty. However, this situation didn't warrant for that, did it?

His enemy was powerful, and he was going to kill all the witnesses anyway.

'There's no harm in using my fill power to subjugate this idiot!'

Once he concluded that thought, Kendrick decided within himself to use them; Original Magic and Mage Mode.

Complimenting these two, he would show his opponent what it meant to be up against unrivaled power.

'But first...' Kendrick leaped to the air, creating shockwaves that quaked the earth.

'... I won't allow myself to be looked down on like that!'

Several golden blades swirled around him like a storm, each containing enough dense Mana to execute everyone in the settlement without fading away one bit.

Several were more than the vermin he faced deserved, but he wasn't going to be satisfied with any less.

Overwhelming power was his game!

>WHOOOOOOOOOOSSSHHHH!!!<

The blades lunged at Kuzon, who expertly dodged them and began retreating further away from Kendrick.

Unfortunately for the fool, the blades had already registered his energy signature.

'You won't escape so easily!'

With that single thought echoing in his head, he lunged at Kuzon, his blades also attacking simultaneously.

'I'll make you suffer no matter what!'
