Legend of the Fire Witch
Chapter 5: The Strongest Witch
It's been 2 years since Igni started training.
Igni: “Sst!”
Igni's body floated in the air.
Following him around were 5 fireballs swirling around his body.
On the ground were giant spiders at least 5 meters tall.
Monster A-RANK "Tools of Hell." 15 in all.
They kept an eye on the forecast of Igni's landing area and set up traps.
Igni: “[FLAME ARMOR - IGNITE]”
Through Igni's spell, the fireball around Igni, [FIREBALL] shone brightly at once. In an instant, the red glow of the flames turned a pure white.
[FLAME ARMOR - IGNITE] is done by magic manipulation.
Limited to fireballs created by your own magic, this spell focused on increasing the potential of the [FIRES'] and would further explode in attack damage and blast radius from tens of times to several hundred times more.
Igni: “[LAUNCH - FIRE]!!”
The white [FIREBALL] spell around Igni came out of it at incredible speed and made contact with the earth.
*DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNN!!! (Earth Shaking Impact sfx)
5 consecutive explosions flew the Spiders of Hell and brought the land with him. It takes 4 A-RANK Adventurers to defeat 1 Hell Spider, and Igni cleared 15 just now as he landed and jumped off the ground with acceleration.
The real enemy is not them.
Lucas: “Oye, Igni. There are many more.”
Igni: “.....I know..”
Igni calmly answered.
There was a reason why he kept his voice low.
Secret Rule of Popularity Number 4: "Mystery Men Are Very Interesting."
It's just for this reason.
“The mysterious” man imagined by Igni who was lacking significantly in parts of the brain, came to the conclusion that the quiet man was truly mysterious.
Luke: "Look up."
Lucas' voice reaches Igni as the enormous DRAGON'S・BONES falls from the sky above him.
*ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
DRAGON SKULL.
Monster Ranking SS. One of the strongest dragon species. Dragons are said to live past a millennium but like all creatures, they also have life spans. And thus, they also left behind remnants.
During the war between the Demon King and Humanity, the Demon King collects the remains of the strongest dragon species and brings them \, and puts them under his control.
This is one of his servants - a forgotten relic of the war that ended a century ago.
Igni and Lucas start from Lucas' training ground, and as Igni grows in strength, he starts attacking further and further into the Demon King World. As a result, he arrived at a place that humans considered impassable territory located in the area around the Demon King Castle.
Lucas: “Oye, Igni. Maintain your firepower.”
Igni: “I also know it.”
Igni created a small [FIREBALL] at the tip of his front finger.
Igni: “[FLAME ARMOR - IGNITE]”
A metal-like sound that struck the metal pierced through the air as an incredible amount of magic was combined into a single point. Igni detonated a certain amount of magic concentration stored in his [FIREBALL].
Igni: “Once again, you will die here.”
The fireball left Igni's hand and directly hit the Skull Dragon's head and scattered and destroyed it completely, killing the Skull Dragon instantly.
Before the remains of the Skull Dragon reached it, Igni dashed out from below.
Lucas: "Oh ho---a spell that concentrates all your magic into one single point, eh?"
Igni: “That's not all I get. I still have some reserves left. ”
Luke: “Good, good. Very kind. I'm impressed. Your magic reserve has grown significantly, so.”
Igni: “Well, I still reached my growth spurt.”
Igni said it with a childish smile, but he was not wrong here.
Magic Exhaustion causes loss of consciousness and then, death.
Knowing that, no one dared to even approach exerting all their magic at any given point.
But Igni continued to do so for 2 consecutive years.
There was a time when he had to walk 1 week without eating and drinking in the Demon King realm.
There was a time when he had to continuously fight monsters with his eyes closed for an entire month.
There were other times when spells were forbidden in battles against monsters.
And every time, every day, he would continue to cast all his magic.
That alone will cause your magic reserves to grow exponentially.
But it's not all. Igni has just reached its growth spurt at the peak of his teenage years.
Because of those two factors, Igni's magic reached an incredible level!
But of course, it was a thorny and dangerous path.
Since he used magic endlessly, there were days when he had a fever for days that could burn his brain.
He did not lose a limb just once or twice.
But Igni is still growing stronger because of one thing.
---- He really wants to be popular.
I mean, he regrowed his limbs as soon as Lucas gave him the elixir.
Igni: “Grandfather, do I PASS・TETEST?”
Luke: “Hm. I guess if you can defeat the Skull Dragon by yourself, that's enough. ”
The spots of light flying around Igni had been fused into one, and took on the form of Lucas.
Yes, this guy.
Even though his grandson was fighting for his life, he witnessed all of this by his side without any risk or danger.
Igni: “So grandpa, I can be adventurous now?”
Igni was struggling to contain his enthusiasm.
An Adventurer. A world where only power and power matter.
Igni's goal was to become an adventurer, and eventually become the strongest and most popular in the world.
Luke: “Eh, no. You are forbidden to be an adventurer.”
Igni: “APA----WHATAAAAAA?! WHY SISTER?!?!”<TAG1>?
Without the slightest hesitation, Igni protested.
You can't blame him. For 2 long years, he had passed the finger of death over and over again just to make this dream come true.
Lucas: “You ruined a character with your mysterious personality, Igni. There's a reason why you can't be an adventurer. And that's because.”.
It was impossible for Lucas to have at all no logical and reasonable explanation to say such a thing.
That's why Igni held his breath and waited for his grandfather to speak.
Lucas: “.....ADVENTURER NO *PLEASANT ENCOUNTER!!!”
Igni: “....T-NO STRUGGLE THAT CHRISTMAS?!”
Igni's mind froze with a sudden revelation.
Lucas: “Didn't you read the stories of the heroes of the past? 'Silver black.' 'Red blood.' and myself 'BRIGHT ULTIMATE' Lucas. We are all heroes that came out of the origins of the Adventurer. But even so, Igni. This is something universal in ALL HEROES ADVENTURES ... UNshakable AND UNRESPONSIBLE FACTS! DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW?!?!"
Igni: “............!!”
Just to become popular, Igni's brain flashes with sudden enlightenment.
Igni: “. EVERYONE IS A MAN!!”
Lucas: “CUCH!! THERE ARE ONLY MEN AMONG ADVENTURES! IGNIS! YOU DON'T HAVE TO MAKE THE SAME MISTAKES I DID! I ALSO THINK THAT BEING AN ADVENTURER MAKES YOU POPULAR!! BUT WHAT AWAITS ME IS THE HELL THAT SWEATY HUMANS WEAR!!”
Igni: “....Q...n-no... then .. what should I do ... "
Even against the Skull Dragon, Igni did not fall to his knees once, but now he was crushed in total defeat.
But to be honest, how deep was this young man's despair really?
Luke: “Don't worry! That's why I, the Wizard 'EXTREM' will guide you to the right path!”
Igni: “K-grandpa!!”
Lucas: "Now you have to go to the Witch Academy!"
Igni: “Academy of Witches?!”
It is a school to educate and nurture future witches.
Lucas: “Mhmm. Flora 'Spring'. 'Elulu's 'Flying Book. Shalum 'Stone Split'. Heroes that emerged from the Witch Academy ALL WOMEN!!”
Igni: “ITU TRUE!!”
Women are more adept at magic.
It is said that when God created man, He divided man into two things.
He gives muscle to men.
And he gave magic to women.
So it was no wonder that all the heroines were from the Witch Academy.
Lucas: “So I sent you to WIZARDRY SUPER ELITE & FAMOUS INSTITUTION!! RAMMOD WIZARD ACADEMY!!”
Igni: “Rollod Witch Academy?! IT'S THE MOST ELITE SCHOOL THERE IS!!”
It was the famous school Igni had heard of. They recruited the children of the most talented magicians, and in Igni's home country, the National Anthem Kingdom, they were the safe top rank of all educational institutions.
The best quality of the Rolmod Mage Academy was their motto "Strength is Everything" and would acknowledge anyone with the talent to be strong.
For the Rolmod Witch Academy, your family bloodline is no problem.
They're just looking for one thing - your talent as a witch.
Luke: “Ya! Rolmod Witch Academy is a women-only school until 10 years ago!”
Igni: “Wait, is that true?!”
Lucas: "Well, it basically ended that way because women beat all men at the entrance exam."
Igni: “Is it different now?”
Lucas: “There are some men but the ratio is 4:1! 80% of schools are women! Do you understand what this means?!?!”
Igni: “Y-yes, I understand. I understand, grandpa.”
Igni nodded.
One of Igni's dreams is to create a fantasy of a happy, harem-filled school life.
He wanted to swing his head vertically agreed until it was torn apart, but then he no longer became mysterious, so he resisted this with all his might.
Lucas: “This is the Entrance Exam Pass. This one is yours.”
Igni: “APA?! You have ordered mine ?! ”
Luke: “Of course! Don't underestimate me, “SANG EXTREME”!!”
Igni: “K--you're an amazing grandfather! So when is the test?!”
Lucas: "Tomorrow!"
Igni: “....what?”
Igni ruined the character again.
