Return of the 10th Circle Archmage

A hood that is deeply pressed down to the forehead.

A black robe that covered the entire body like pitch black.

Smoke billowed out of the hood, with a glimpse of a crimson flame.

"after······."

He slowly walked into the center of the tangled battlefield.

He was tall and skinny in appearance, but he was terrified of the powerful energy that emanated from him.

Even without saying Vicky, it was an aura that made me go backwards.

The staff in his right hand was gleaming with a huge jewel shining in red. He kept moving forward with a gait that was neither fast nor slow.

"after······."

Blowing out smoke from the long tobacco in his mouth, he was always relaxed.

However.

gurgling.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

An entirely different catastrophe occurred.

Kwagwang!

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

When he reached the battlefield, a cataclysm occurred.

A curtain of flames rose from the ground, and the ground on which the demons were standing turned into a chlorinated hell.

It all happened in an instant.

"after······."

There was no movement, no magic chant, and only the smoke of the beginning of the year, a miracle that was caused.

Contrasting with the overwhelming power of a demon that emanates from its huge body.

Compared to the demon god, with a small body, the infinite magic that went beyond the limits of the body exploded.

“Demon King Slayer…….”

someone's murmur.

“The master of magic…….”

Unknown titles came out of the murmur.

“Dragon Hunter...!”

“Lee Jun-hyeok, the continent’s first 10 circle arch magician!!!”

10 circles.

Humans, elves, and even dragons could not reach that level.

Even the resurrected demon Argos could not cross the 10th circle wall.

He stayed at the edge of the ninth circle and ruled the world.

Kwagaceae ········.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

The army of darkness, approaching 2 million, began to noticeably decrease. 1.8 million, 1.5 million, 1 million, 700,000, 400,000...

Even if hundreds of thousands of troops rushed in, that number did not decrease, only one person.

It began to shrink by only one wizard.

“What is this...!”

Argos, the demon god who stirred the battlefield and slaughtered dragons.

His eyes turned red with shock and horror.

'There's still a lot left...'

I looked at the tobacco in my mouth.

There was still room at the end of the filter. It didn't last long, but most of the monsters were removed from the battlefield.

He drew out the highest-level fire magic he had studied so far. From the moment they crossed the circle of 9, the battle alone began.

100 years.

From the moment I was brought from Earth to the alien planet Demos.

I struggled desperately to survive.

He didn't have any natural physical abilities, so he couldn't even hold a sword. If you're in the middle, let's use our heads instead!

After making that decision, he immersed himself in magic.

I studied and researched magic during my waking hours and even in my dreams while sleeping. Despite all kinds of contempt and humiliation because of their race, he did not give up.

And, now I am standing here.

“Heh heh heh!”

dump.

In front of him, a demon that was burnt as black as coal was kneeling.

bum bum.

Without hiding his tired eyes, he walked towards him. Now it's over. The return has been delayed for this moment.

I pushed myself to the limit for this moment.

To reach the level of 10 circles, which even the demigods could not climb.

“Aww! You will definitely regret it!”

As I approached, the demon flinched and shouted out loud.

what? What is this obvious line?

Are there any unconventional lines that can stimulate me more?

This guy repeated the obvious repertoire he saw in many movies and novels.

“I should have talked about that before igniting it at the beginning of the year...”

“··········!”

I took a sip of the tobacco I put into my mouth and exhaled.

Smoke poured down the guy's face.

We were already close enough to reach out. But he can't lift a single finger of him.

Electric Restriction

A tiny black thunderbolt climbed up the demon's body and bound his whole body. At the same time, he cut off all the contractions of his magical power and strength.

tooth support.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

He took out the tobacco from his mouth, which still had the filter, and put it on the demon's forehead.

“I promised to get rid of your bastard before the beginning of the year is all over.”

Now the promise was kept.

Kwawawawa-!

The whole ground on which the demon was kneeling rose with a pillar of fire.

*

Archachen Castle in the capital of Pelenor.

A large crowd gathered at the castle where the emperor who ruled the empire stayed.

"Thank you."

“Thanks to the wizard.”

“Thank you for saving this world.”

Every time I passed, people gave me a word.

He saved a world that was almost destroyed by a demon. It wasn't something I was hoping for in return, but that's why more and more people gave me a favor.

“Sir Junhyeok. Thank you so much.”

Emperor Benefor was sitting slowly on the throne.

He was the last commander of the Allied Forces and was at the forefront of the battlefield. He jumped off the throne and grabbed my hand and waved it.

“What, with what I did for granted…”

He took him and his hand and looked around. People's eyes were focused on me. He looked at my every move and every move with awe.

“Junhyuk!”

While I was conversing with the emperor, a slender, muffled voice pierced my ears.

wow.

And back hugged from behind.

It smelled like flowers.

“Argen?”

“...don’t go, Junhyuk.”

Pricking up her pointed ears, Arzen wept. She kept her promise to her.

In fact, I defeated her demon not to protect her planet Demos, but to keep her promise to her.

After being thrown out into another world alone, when no one reaches out to me.

Only she handed her a helping hand.

She did not discriminate that she was a yellow monkey, treated her as an equal, and passed on her magic and knowledge.

Beyond her regular class, she no longer needed her help, but she never forgot her grace.

“I kept her promise, so now I have to go back.”

"Sobbing······."

I could feel the robe getting wet. Argen burst into tears. She has already lived over 500 years, and she still maintains a neat 20-year-old beauty.

I turned and covered her face with both hands.

Her fist-sized face was caught in my hand.

"Sorry."

I muttered that as I kissed her white, beautiful forehead. The dew on the long eyelashes trembled. Arzen hugged me once more and she burst into tears.

Soothing her, I was alone with her ancient dragon, Vara Gond.

“Yeah, you found a way back to your hometown?”

"exactly."

Baragond transformed into polymorph magic in a dark secret room.

He wore blonde hair and a gray robe and looked like a wizard. However, on the inside, it was a dragon that was tens of thousands of years old.

“Is it true that the time axis and the space axis are perfectly aligned?”

He was vomiting blood and intestines at the feet of the demon, and he had healed his wounds with the magic of Restoration.

If he does not die, it is the dignity of the 9th Circle that he survives even if his limbs are amputated.

“We have identified all possible parallel universe instances within the expected range. I am sure.”

I answered that in an unshakable voice. Baragonde opened his mouth in amazement at my answer.

“That’s great. Calculating it all After all, this is the dignity of the 10th circle, right?”

10 circles.

The absolute realm, also called the realm of God.

I have reached a point where no other being except God has ever stepped on it.

Nothing was impossible for me.

“There must be a lot of work to be done by staying here.”

“You do that…”

I jokingly said when Baragond grabbed her crotch and tried to droop.

okay.

I've done enough.

I was brought to another world, and I wallowed in another world without knowing why. It was only later that I found out that it was the arrangement of the creator Urme.

“Let’s shake hands one last time.”

I shook hands with my teacher, Baragond, whom I had been with for a long time, and opened the warp gate.

Now this is the real last.

If you go over here, you can't return to the Demos planet, whether you're killed or eaten.

Born on Earth, but lived longer here. So there was a little bit of resentment. Argen, who is prettier than any other beauties, was trampled upon. But you have to go back.

I wanted to see my parents before I die.

My mother, who suffered only because of me all her life.

A father who did everything he could for his family.

My cute little brother, Hye-eun, who only followed me around.

Her family wanted to see.

I was worried about how I would be living now, and whether the family had not collapsed after I disappeared.

"after······."

After completing all the rites in my mind, I let out a long sigh and cast the magic.

A dazzling light enveloped my body.
