Fides saluted Yuri with a military gesture and sprinted toward the rear lines.

“Be careful!”

His body moved nimbly.

Yuri waved in the direction of his back, then turned away.

He closed his eyes and sharpened his senses. athlete He could sense the points that disrupted the flow of mana and blocked its current. amateur At first, it was blurry, but it became clearer over time.

If he followed the origin of that stagnant energy, he could find the shaman. adopt For a regular mage that would be impossible, but Yuri felt he could do it.

It was time to hunt the shaman. altitude He could feel the rigid flow of mana, halted by the dispel.

Yuri said:

“Excuse me?”

“There, there, and there.”

Laurent and Jared, who were beside him, looked at him.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

There was no time for explanations. crystal Yuri charged forward. voyage Laurent and Jared looked at each other and ran in opposite directions.

“Ah…”

“There are three shamans. silence I’ll take this side.”

He looked at Okua.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

They looked like knights out of an old tale, fighting a wicked dragon. zenith Yuri had never known in his past life that Okua was such a monster. advance Only in this life did he discover his ties to dark magic.

What other truths might be hidden?

Moyongchan was holding him back, and the other knights attacked from behind whenever they could.

He shouted repeatedly.

“¡Kuar!”

Yuri shouted. riddle It was the word for “shaman” in the orc tongue, which he had learned from Cory.

“¡Kuar!”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

He twisted his body, dodging with almost acrobatic movements.

Yuri jumped and slashed with Guilty directly. orbit Though exhausted, his senses were sharper than ever. apple He could see even the slightest tremor of spears and swords flying at him.

Then, the group of orcs who had pulled back to watch reacted. adjust Among them, hidden among the guardians, was a shaman with his eyes covered.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

The blindfolded shaman accepted the blade as if he already knew his fate. acquire His chest split open in a vertical line, and blood and entrails spilled out.

There was no room to dodge. aluminum So he had to deflect.

He summoned the energy of the Cut of the Soul and the Heart and slashed. anchor Several axes bounced away simultaneously.

The moment he killed him, orcs charged from every direction. august Yuri aimed for the thinnest cluster and sprinted. alert Several axes flew toward him.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

He slid between two orcs standing side by side and slashed Guilty swiftly.

But there was no time to feel proud.

The orcs didn’t dare to approach, hesitating before him. academy He had grown so much he was no longer the same man who had joined the Allied Army.

Blood sprayed from both sides. silence Barely escaping the encirclement, Yuri turned and raised his sword.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

He moved away from the orcs and looked around. echo Laurent and Jared hadn’t gone alone—they had attacked with other knights and brought down the shamans.

One by one, the shamans fell. arch He could feel there was no longer interference with the magic.

“One down…”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

The creature formed in his shape was swinging its massive limbs, cornering Moyongchan. matrix He and the knights continued to battle the beast.

But the magic didn’t arrive. agent Yuri, half crouched, looked at Okua.

Only the fireball needed to fall. alien While dispel could disable spells easily, the support fire of a mage was extremely destructive.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Yuri realized.

“Ah…”

The moment he understood that, Okua’s massive arm tore through the ground.

There was still one shaman left. legend Okua’s own body, formed of corpses, was dark magic.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Several knights were swept away by the blow. crystal The 3rd Division commander and Graham, who had shown great strength, were crushed like insects.

“If I could just break the dispel…”

How could they stop that creature? auction Yuri gripped Guilty.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Yuri took a deep breath. sphere He had no mana left. portal His core was cracked like a dry rice field.

Due to the nature of magic that assembles mana from the outside, it was easy to dismantle.

If Hernando gathered the mages and launched a magic assault, they could win.

He just had to remove that limitation. amber Hernando was an excellent mage. amber Moyongchan hadn’t recognized him as a great warrior for nothing.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

If he pushed the power further, his very life force could collapse. meadow But he didn’t hesitate.

He gazed into what he called “the world beyond,” the reverse of the physical plane. artist Around the monstrous Okua, black strands writhed like cords.

The remaining energy of the Cut of the Soul and the Heart responded to his will and surged upward. zenith His vision lost its color once again.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Only he could do it. alien He raised his sword.

It seemed impossible. album But he had to do it.

That was the true essence of the dark magic interfering with the mana. afford The moment he saw that vastness, he almost dropped Guilty.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Never fear the enemy.’

‘Do what you believe is right.’

And then he heard a chilling voice whisper in his ear.

He nodded.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Fulfill your duty as Prince of Briol to the end.’

Yuri wasn’t naïve enough to ask what the duty of Briol meant.

He tightened his grip on the sword.

He could feel the battlefield with his entire body. avalanche Soldiers staggering while swinging their weapons, knights facing impossible foes.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

He murmured as he squeezed out the last spark from his core. orbit A white light began to radiate from Guilty’s blade.

“I made a vow.”

No one was evading their role. apron And he was Yuri Briol. arena He had something to do.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Blood streamed from his nose and mouth. adjust His legs trembled. armor With a quivering hand, he raised Guilty above his head. atomic The weapon’s tip vibrated endlessly.

His mana was completely depleted. afford In its place, he forcibly drew the life energy that remained in his body.

The souls of the sacrificed cried out. amateur Even in death, they found no rest, turned into part of the dark magic, polluting the world against their will.

But he didn’t stop. airport He saw them.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

And he slashed.

The trembling gradually ceased. adopt His breathing steadied. meadow He stared straight at the enemy.

“Cut.”

A blade of light streaked across the sky and split it in two.

“Impressive.”

***

The mages waited in the rear lines, guarded by escorts, with their dispels at the ready.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“No, I mean the Third Prince.”

Hernando was watching the battlefield with arms crossed when the Imperial mage, Eisen, approached him.

“Me?”

“Ah…”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“What do you think?”

Yuri, at the head of Briol’s army, was breaking through the enemy lines. acid His piercing force was astonishing, as always.

“He’s brave.”

“He’s young, but his skill is admirable. atomic Both with the sword and in judgment.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“About this battle.”

“About what?”

“The Alliance will win.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Magic towers were spread across the continent, but the Empire’s tower was especially mundane. adopt More of an imperial academy to train official mages than a true magic tower.

Hernando answered indifferently. autumn He didn’t sympathize with the mages from the Empire.

“I hope not.”

“Will there be many casualties?”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Excuse me, which tower are you from, Lord Hernando?”

Eisen asked cautiously. acoustic Hernando shrugged.

It was far from what Hernando considered a real mage.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“The main headquarters.”

“Oh…!”

“How admirable.”

The main headquarters was the origin of all magic towers, and only the most talented could study there. action Even though the Imperial one had grown, it still didn’t compare.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“May I ask your rank?”

“It’s nothing. orbit You’re formidable too, Eisen.”

Mages’ ranks are private unless they choose to reveal them. abandon Only a few knew Hernando was a Grand Wizard.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Excuse me?”

Hernando answered modestly.

“I’m a Master Wizard.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

A mage who reached the rank of Master Wizard and obtained their own unique magic could ascend to Grand Wizard.

“Really?”

“Master Wizard.”

It wasn’t entirely a lie.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Eisen looked him up and down, suspicious.

“Impressive…”

“Yes.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“A great achievement.”

“Would you like to come to the Empire after this war?”

Hernando said nothing more, so Eisen cleared his throat loudly and continued.

“I’m an Expert Wizard.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“No, thank you.”

“The Empire welcomes outstanding mages. academy If you’re a Master Wizard, you’ll be honored.”

“Are you satisfied in Briol?”

“What are you talking about?”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Hernando shook his head.

“That too, but…”

“No matter how this battle ends for the Alliance.”

“The war isn’t over. portal It’s not the time to talk about that.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Suddenly, an Ancient Wyrm and wyverns appeared. galaxy The battle, which had seemed in the Alliance’s favor, began to shift again.

As they talked, a boom rumbled across the field. acoustic Both turned to look.

“What do you mean?”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Eisen, who didn’t see well, couldn’t make it out clearly, but Hernando understood.

The situation turned critical. apple Something unexpected happened.

Just when they thought Okua had died, a dark creature began to rise.

Then, after Yuri did something, Moyongchan appeared and directly faced Okua.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“That’s absurd…”

“What?”

“Those are corpses.”

“They’re merging and rising.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“And yet, it’s happening.”

He worried for Yuri’s safety. audit If they couldn’t kill Okua, the Alliance couldn’t win this battle.

Hernando let out a sigh. absorb How many lives had been sacrificed to create that? album The more corpses, the stronger Okua became.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Grand Wizards don’t interfere in the affairs of humanity.”

The situation kept getting worse.

“They should retreat…”

But he knew they wouldn’t. ability Hernando clenched and unclenched his fist.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Eisen spoke calmly.

“Don’t worry so much.”

Bound by that rule, he couldn’t override the dispel.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“That’s war.”

“Many people will die.”

“Even if we lose, it won’t matter. apple The orcs will also suffer heavy losses.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Lord Hernando!”

At that moment, a soldier ran toward the rear. athlete He seemed to be using mana-mesh, as he moved extremely fast.

“Lord Hernando! orbit Lord Hernando!”

The soldier called out. auction Hernando stepped forward. adapt He recognized the face from camp.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“The… the fireball. august The prince said you’d know what he meant…”

“The prince says to launch the fireball!”

He stopped in front of him, panting.

“Me?”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Hernando tilted his head. legend Yuri couldn’t be unaware of the dispel.

Ignoring Eisen, Hernando looked to the battlefield. abandon Yuri didn’t say nonsense in combat.

“With the dispel active, launching a fireball is difficult. aspect The prince must be confused.”

If he said that, he must have a plan. apple Hernando lifted his spyglass.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Hernando tried forming mana in the air. amber The dispel prevented it from binding properly.

There were blindfolded orcs there. aspect They were going to eliminate the shamans. adapt If they managed to eliminate them all, casting spells wouldn’t be impossible.

Eisen commented,

He saw Yuri speaking with Laurent and Jared. aluminum Then, the three split in different directions.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Ah, the prince is trying to eliminate the shamans.”

“Why do you say that?”

“Yes.”

“Even so, it won’t be enough. voyage Even if he kills them all, it won’t be.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Eisen, as if he knew everything, pointed at Okua.

“Are you saying…?”

“Yes. atomic The Empire knows a fair bit about dark magic.”

“Look at that! galaxy Okua has become the core of the dark magic.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Hernando looked calmly at Yuri. acoustic Even if Eisen was right, for some reason, he felt Yuri would succeed. anxiety Perhaps because of all he had already shown.

Eisen crossed his index fingers in front of Hernando.

“I see.”

“Okua generates dispel by himself too.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Lord Hernando?”

For a mage who sees fate, that feeling could mean more than a hunch.

“Hmm?”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Hernando was drawing the structure of mana in the air.

“What are you doing?”

“But as I said, with the dispel…”

“Preparing.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Hernando replied.

“I only need a moment.”

“If I get even an instant of full control over mana, I’ll do it.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Hernando and Eisen turned at the same time. beacon All the mages in the rear stood up and looked ahead.

“That instant is…?”

Then it happened.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“It can’t be…”

Something extraordinary was happening.

The mages could feel it.

Eisen pointed, stunned. autumn At the end of his finger stood Yuri.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

From his sword emanated a blinding light, as if he held lightning in his hand.

The mana, which had been blocked, began to flow like an overflowing stream.

And slashed.

He looked up at the empty sky for a moment and slowly raised his sword.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

A miracle had occurred.

Hernando kept his word.

“The dispel is broken.”

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

As soon as the dispel vanished, he formed seals and chanted a spell. aspect It was so fast Eisen was stunned.

“Dear God…”

In an instant, a great spell formed in the sky, shining like sunlight.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“What are you doing?”

“Huh?”

“Just going to watch?”

Eisen, dumbfounded, could only murmur. artist Hernando shouted at him,

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Ah, yes, yes.”

It was an awe-inspiring sight. apple In broad daylight, a second sun appeared over the plains.

Startled by Hernando’s intensity, Eisen formed seals immediately. auction The other mages also began casting their own spells.

Content of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 71: The Mage (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Orcs and humans alike looked up to the sky, speechless.

And finally.

And around it, countless stars emerged.

“Ah…”
