People Are In The Magical World, There Is No Magic Power

(PS: The picture is a reference image of Julia's unglamorous state.)

The moment the anti-magic windmill swept past, Julia noticed in time that Rowan wanted to trade injury for injury. She first elementalized the organs in her abdomen that were about to be cut, layer by layer. In the end, only a small part of her skin was not able to elementalize in time and was injured.

Julia, who was like a bird startled by the twang of a bow, hurriedly let Mercury bring her back and retreated. She looked at Rowan in shock.

When she was cut, there was a short moment when she could not elementalize!

What was that?

Does the Disruption Spell have such an effect?

She had clearly left the spell's contact, but she could still feel it?

"Ha …" (Here, it is recommended to play the black grass op1 "Distant Future" on a loop as the background music.)

Rowan, who had a few wounds on his body, took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his state of mind. He used his strong physique to contract the muscles near the wounds and stop some of the bleeding.

He had avoided all the fatal wounds, so these wounds did not affect his movements.

The windmill spun in a circle. Accompanied by blood and sweat, Rowan ran towards Rong Liya.

Rowan's speed was very fast. Julia could not outrun him. She was approached before she could gather much Mercury.

"Damn it!"

Julia, with a ferocious expression, raised her hand and turned half of the Mercury around her into hundreds of sharp blades, shooting them towards Rowan.

"Ding ding ding ding dang dang dang …"

The moment he turned into a large black windmill, he waved it around vigorously, blocking all the mercury, and rushed in front of Julia.

"Pfft!"

n

Numerous Mercury Blades left wounds on Rowan's body. The spinning of the anti-magic sword also left a bloody mark on Julia's body.

"You …!"

Julia's ferocious expression was very glamorous. She knew that she could not outrun Rowan in terms of speed, so she turned into Mercury and fought with Rowan.

The anti-magic windmill spun in a circle around him. Rowan faced the large amount of Mercury Mist and attacked Julia violently.

Countless Mercury Mist attacked like a storm, sealing Rowan's range of activity in an extremely small area.

Although he could directly use the anti-magic windmill in his hand to kill his way out, he would not be able to hold Julia back!

The two of them were frantically changing their figures within a short distance. Belaria and Ladi, who were outside, could only vaguely see countless afterimages in the surging mercury.

With one or two people as the center, the area within a radius of six to seven meters seemed to have formed a domain of its own. Large amounts of mercury continuously poured in or splashed out.

Rowan, who had maximized his awareness, left behind many afterimages as if he had gone mad. The anti-magic windmill in his hand blocked Mercury's attacks while he chased after the person who controlled Mercury.

He pushed his body to the limit, focused his mind to the limit, and persevered until he won …

Every step he took, every swing of his arm, every turn he made … They were all the results of Rowan's 17 years of hard work and experience.

A strong enemy!

The limit of the fourth step, top-tier traits, elemental conversion, and the enormous amount of mana provided by Sewers' Origin …

There was no doubt that Julia, who Rowan suspected to be the strongest of the fourth echelon, was a powerful enemy that Rowan had run into for the first time!

It wasn't a situation where one side was crushing the other, nor was it a situation where one side had the upper hand. Instead, it was a battle where both sides were evenly matched!

Moreover, the opponent who possessed Sewers' Origin was still growing stronger at an extremely fast speed!

She was the only enemy that Rowan had encountered who didn't rely on luck to enter the dark state. She was the best enemy that tested the strength that he had truly grasped!

That's why Rowan was so … so … so …

He wanted to win!

He didn't want to rely on luck to cheat in the dark state. He wanted to prove all the hard work that he had put in for the past 17 years of his third life!

"Ahhh … I'm clearly an old man in his sixties if I add up all my three lives. Yet, I'm still so hot-blooded … Should I say that men are still young until they die?"

Rowan felt a burning desire for victory that exceeded any other time in his life. It burned like a raging inferno. The radiance in his red and black eyes grew brighter.

Unlike Rowan's desire for victory, Julia only wanted to quickly finish off this troublesome opponent that made her frustrated but grew stronger as the battle went on. However, she was powerless to do anything about it.

In terms of battle, Julia, who had a few more wounds on her body, was like Rowan. She was fully focused and tensed up. She didn't dare to be careless at all.

She knew that if she dared to be the slightest bit careless, even the slightest bit of carelessness, her head would definitely fall to the ground. The faint bloodstains on her neck that she didn't manage to completely elementalize in time constantly reminded her of this fact.

At the limit of Taichi, both sides raised their awareness to the maximum. Regardless of whether they were attacking or defending, they didn't reveal any flaws. Every movement was like dancing on the tip of a knife. A slight carelessness would result in defeat and death.

Compared to the situation where both parties would suffer from non-fatal injuries from time to time, and their injuries would accumulate to the point of collapse, perhaps it was more likely that they would last until one party suddenly couldn't endure the high-intensity battle and revealed a flaw, which would then be seized and defeated by the other party.

Just like now.

"Whoosh —!"

The anti-magic windmill spun from right to left and eliminated the surrounding mercury.

"E......!"

Rowan's red right eye suddenly flickered and then completely turned back to black.

— Time was up.

The sudden decrease in power caused Rowan's body to stop moving at high speed.

Even the constantly spinning windmill was knocked to the ground and bounced up from the ground due to the sudden pause in its movement. Without any additional force to support it, the spinning speed of the anti-magic windmill was reduced to the speed of a tortoise for Julia.

"Chance!"

Julia, who was highly focused, seized on this obvious flaw.

Coincidentally, the elementalized mercury in her body also flowed to the front of Rowan.

Because the windmill's last move had temporarily cleared the surrounding mercury, Rong Liya couldn't immediately condense a large number of mercury blades.

Julia, who didn't want to let go of this flaw, revealed her upper body. She held a mercury sword in each hand and stabbed towards Rowan.

"Go to hell —!!!"

Julia, who had a ferocious smile, roared in her heart. At the same time, she didn't let down her guard. She maintained the range of her vision where she could see the anti-magic swords and was ready to elementalize to dodge the attack at any time.

Rowan's right arm, which was swung to the left, loosened and then clenched. Using the remaining rotational force, he grabbed the hilt of Broken Magic and quickly pulled it back.

Broken Magic easily shattered the two mercury swords. The broken chain that trapped Rowan was placed in front of the two of them.

8......

"Now's the time!"

Julia's wildly dancing hair suddenly elementalized and turned into mercury blades that flew towards Rowan's heart.

It was too sudden and unexpected. Rowan only had time to slightly adjust the hand holding Broken Magic. Many cracks appeared on the chain in front of the mercury blades formed by the hair.

"Clang!"

The ear-piercing sound of friction only sounded for a moment. Julia's right palm that was infused with magic hit the "handle" that extended from behind the mercury blades. She grabbed it and pushed it forward with all her strength.

"Kacha —!"

"Puchi!"

The broken chain created by Belaria's projection magic was completely severed by the mercury blades. It turned into many magic light spots and dissipated.

The mercury blades also pierced through Rowan's chest.

However, the chain still worked in the end. With Rowan's effort to move his body in a short period of time, he avoided the piercing of his heart. It pierced through the left side of his heart.

Rowan's body fell back slightly because of this sudden attack. Cindy's heartbreaking scream sounded behind him.

"I won!"

Julia whose waist-length hair turned into "mid-back hair" thought so. The ferocious smile at the corner of her mouth gradually became wilder and more ostentatious.

She directly touched the mercury blades. She could control the mercury blades to turn into countless mercury spikes and explode in Rowan's body.

That way, he would definitely die immediately!

The cold power was forcefully activated again.

"Bam!"

It wasn't over yet!

Rowan pushed his left leg back and stopped his falling body. He looked up and revealed his right eye that had turned scarlet again.

— If he suddenly accelerated and forcefully cycled in the middle, he could also enter a pseudo-black state. However, if he didn't control the rhythm well, the cycle would quickly collapse. He would exit the state in a few seconds.

This was Rowan's current state. He could only maintain it for a few seconds.

But … it was enough!

Rowan turned his head and bit on the chains that were torn apart. He raised Broken Magic with his right arm and stared at Molia with his heterochromatic eyes.

Julia wasn't afraid. She directly detonated the mercury blades that pierced Rowan's chest …

"Huh?"

Julia's eyes widened slightly.

Why … can't I feel the mercury in my hand?

Under Julia's gaze, the mercury blade in her hand suddenly turned back into a few strands of hair and drifted away from her hand that was holding the hilt.

In the pseudo-black state, the anti-magic power slowly flowing in the body was not a joke.

Rowan shook his head with all his might. The chain in his mouth was holding onto the Ancient Demon, and the back of his sword bounced off Julia's outstretched arm. It wasn't that he didn't want to use his sword, but Fang Douran, who was biting him with his mouth, couldn't change the direction of his sword.

After being touched by the anti-magic sword, even if it was only for a brief moment, Julia would be unable to elemental transform for a brief moment.

Rowan had noticed it during the extreme attack and defense from before.

Julia's lower body, which was still in the mercury state, quickly turned back into a human body. Julia's expression was completely frozen.

Falling from heaven to hell was nothing more than that.

"......!"

Julia wanted to retreat with a terrified expression, but the Demon Breaker that she had raised high up in the air came crashing down.

"Tsk — —!"

The terrifying force caused Broken Demon to slash into Julia's left shoulder. Accompanied by the sound of flesh being cut, it slashed through the position of her heart and then out from the right side of her abdomen. The Great Emperor's blood spurted out.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

A painful roar came from Julia's mouth, her beautiful face twisted in pain.

The power of anti-magic invaded Julia's body. Together with the special property of Magic Breaker, it seemed to have severed some invisible link. A shrunken white ball of light bounced out of Julia's body and landed on the bumpy ground, making a crisp sound like a pearl hitting the ground.

As the ball of light shot out, the crazy vengeful man finally stopped screaming in pain and fell to the ground.

"Hu … Hu …"

Rowan was drenched in sweat and blood as he panted heavily. His blood-red right eye returned to its original black color.

The temporary pseudo-black state ended, and a sense of weakness spread throughout his body like a tide.

He had already suffered quite a few injuries, and there was even a serious wound that pierced through his chest. Furthermore, he had forcefully broken through his limits and entered a state that he had not fully grasped in such a short period of time. His body was already overloaded.

… Asking for fresh flowers … 0

At that moment, Rowan felt that his eyelids were extremely heavy. When he straightened his body, he staggered a few steps back and forcefully stopped himself from falling.

Rowan looked at the ball of light that landed on the ground.

That should be Sewers' Origin, right?

Rowan took a step forward to grab it.

"Plop —"

He took a step forward, and his overloaded body fell forward. Looking at that, he saw

The light ball's vision gradually blurred …

When Belaria and Rudi saw Rowan's victory, they were already running towards Rowan. When they saw him fall, their hearts tightened.

If not for the fact that her magic power had been exhausted, she would have already flown over to catch Rowan. Why would she need to run so slowly?

Belaria had already taken out a copy of Xiao Xiaoxiao's Life Magic book that he kept. He was going to give it to Rowan when they went over.

"Crash … Crash … Crash …"

The sound of flowing mercury could be heard again.

Under Belaria's and Notty's horrified gazes, a dozen Mercury Blades floated in the air and aimed at Rowan.

"Cough … cough cough …!"

The gray-haired girl coughed weakly.

Julia was lying on the ground. She turned her head slightly to look at Rowan who had fallen not far away from her.

"Ha … Hahaha …"

After laughing weakly for a while, Julia's smile gradually turned into a smile.

"You almost killed me … My adorable junior!"

Julia's injuries looked like she had been cut in half, but in reality, they weren't.

At the last moment, Julia, who had recovered her elemental form, was barely able to elemental form all her organs and bones to avoid Magic Breaker. What was cut was only a layer of skin wrapped around her.

Julia lay on the ground and didn't dare to move. She used her magic power to seal her wounds tightly to prevent herself from losing too much blood.

She was also at the end of her rope. Magic Breaker pierced through her body and caused her magic power to dissipate by more than half. She couldn't elemental form for a while.

The dozen Mercury Blades in the air made Belaria and Notty not dare to act rashly. They stopped in their tracks.

Belaria quickly took out the pistol that could teleport within a small range that saved the old professor. He aimed at Rowan and fired.

"Swoosh!"

A Mercury Blade hit the bullet and triggered the teleportation in advance. It replaced Rowan as the teleportation target.

Rudy hurriedly swung out a very weak wind blade, and barely managed to disperse the mercury blade that was teleported over.

Rowan, who was lying on the ground, didn't react at all. He seemed to have fainted?

But what no one noticed was that the young man's shadow under the high-powered light that the Federation officials had installed on the rock wall … moved slightly.

"Hahaha …"

Julia laughed proudly.

"I won in the end!"

The Mercury Blade fell brazenly.

The sound of a forceful stomp was accompanied by a muscular figure standing up.

The pair of legs covered in blood trembled and stood firmly on the ground.

Weak but still powerful, he waved his right arm and pulled out a black sword shadow, sweeping away the dozen Mercury Blades.

Julia's expression became angry and fearful again. The moving shadow under the young man's body calmed down.

"It's right here now …"

The young man's voice sounded. He said something he learned from somewhere else. It used to make him feel ashamed, but now it became the best description of his actions.

"Exceeding the limit!"

Whether it was Belaria, Notty, or Julia, they were all shocked.

"........."

Julia's eyes were bloodshot from shock and anger. She said with a hoarse voice.

Rowan took a step forward.

Several Mercury Blades came, but he waved his sword and eliminated them.

"You bastard …!"

The Mercury Blade condensed into a drill, but it was swatted away by the blade and flew past Julia.

Rowan, who was holding on with his willpower, could only swing his sword. He couldn't aim at her to reflect the magic.

"What's going on?!!"

The Mercury Maiden appeared behind Rowan, and was destroyed by Mana Breaker without even turning his head.

"Why can you still stand up?!!!"

The Mercury Blade surged. Rowan swatted it away with Demon Breaker as if he was swatting a fly. It crashed into the remaining wall of the palace.

It couldn't stop him at all.

"You're just a piece of trash who can't even use magic —!!!!!"

Those bloodshot eyes that were as firm as divine iron and filled with madness made Julia feel an emotion called fear from the bottom of her heart.

Rowan stood in front of Julia and raised Broken Demon high up in the air.

"No … Don't …!"

Julia's twisted face was extremely hideous. She twisted her broken body as if she was trying to struggle.

Part of her body was silver. It seemed like she was about to recover her elemental transformation ability.

But it was too late.

Knowing that she was going to die here, Julia stared at Rowan's blood-stained face, as if she wanted to engrave this face that brought her shock and death into her heart.

Even if she died, she had to remember it.

The Demon Cutter Sword slashed down.

"Boom —!!!!

Only! "
