As expected, practical application is difficult.

Using magic in ways different from its original purpose or combining magic of different attributes was an application method made possible by his experience.

In fact, if he werent a failed character, there would have been no need to study it.

To survive until the end, he needed to continue researching and trying.

Especially when it was okay to fail, even more so.

When there was a point where a single mistake could cost him his life, there wouldnt even be a chance to practice.

In that sense, this failure wasnt as dangerous.

Ne Ennomo! It wasnt just one artifact! Luring into complacency!

The dark mage, who adjusted his posture, shouted.

It seemed he hadnt thought about magic of a different attribute either.

Ian clicked his tongue.

Caught you.

Just as the dark mages gaze shifted toward his mace, Ian propelled himself again.

The wind pushed him strongly.

Acting like a rat how childish!

The dark mage raised his last arm.

He held onto the magic staff tightly.

Kiiiaaa-!

A much larger phantom barrier spread out, scattering eerie sounds.

This time, it covered the entire surroundings.

Once again, a second attempt didnt work.

Ian pulled up his magical power with renewed determination.

He couldnt even avoid a barrier with no gaps.

Kiiiaah-!

The barrier passed through Ian and scattered curses.

The sensation of hatred intensified before him.

Although he couldnt taint his mind, it was enough to stop the charge.

As Ian plummeted.

Gooo-

A purple magic power engulfed the dark mages body holding onto the staff.

Behind the altar, another wave of magical energy surged.

The spell circuits all around flashed, and the undead that had been observing Ian trembled as if shocked.

As Ian landed safely through that chaos, he smirked.

Already in phase 2? I like the speed.

Shoosh-

The fragments of skeletons disassembled and were drawn into the dark mage.

Shwrlk- The bone fragments clung endlessly to the dark mages body.

A gigantic lich made of countless bones was being formed.

At that moment, his vulnerability to physical defense disappeared.

Of course, it wasnt just his defense that increased.

Your struggles end here, Red Maggot. This is the power I obtained in the Abyss of Emptiness.

A voice echoed through the air.

Countless skulls formed a crown around the lich, and its enlarged arm rose.

Typical for a brat like you.

Looking at the mass of corpses clutched in his hand, Ian sneered.

Red magic power surged in his pupils.

Realize that death is a form of blessing.

Rather than completing the spell, the lich was faster to bring down its hand.

Kiiiaaa-!

Condensed magic shot out like a beam.

Ian dodged to the side.

Quaquaqua- Kiiiaaaah-

The pouring beam spread remnants of the lich in all directions.

Ian circled around the dark mage as the beam followed him.

Gradually narrowing the distance while circling was a strategy from the game.

Running straight would make it impossible to avoid the beam, and hiding behind a pillar would eliminate the chance to counterattack.

And this strategy still worked in the real world.

Kiiiaah-

The beam that had been pursuing him for a while finally weakened.

The remains of the lich bounced off the ceiling and walls countless times, and the dark mage prepared for his next attack.

I wont fall for it twice.

Ians pupils glowed with red magic power.

Threads of lightning emerged between his fingers, intertwining and growing rapidly.

Pachichichi-

The lightning spread out like a spiders web in an instant.

It formed a shape that seemed to wrap lightning around his forearm as well.

At that moment, the ghost ray finally subsided.

The retreating lich, with sluggish movements, looked down at Ian.

There was no expression on its skull, but an emotion was clearly etched on its face.

Gray?! It wasnt an artifact?

Ian looked up at it.

Is that what matters now?

The lichs eyes finally shook.

But Ian, without hesitation, extended his hands crackling with lightning toward the lichs belly.

Blue light burst from between his palms.

Kwaang-!

A thick lightning bolt pierced through the lich.

Quachichichik-

A blinding flash followed.

Due to the casting time and magic consumption, Chain Lightning, an intermediate gray magic, was rarely used.

However, it had high attack power and even a bonus effect of ignoring physical defense. When amplified by the bead, it could easily defeat even the dark mage covered in a shell of bones.

Pachichichik-

The lightning that had been flashing around the lichs body for a while eventually scattered.

The frozen lich stiffened.

For a moment, smoke rose between its enormous eye sockets and its gaping jaw.

Pashss-
