Meanwhile, at Yalan Academy.
An old man looked out the window and frowned.
Although he looks to be in his eighties, his hair shows no signs of graying.
Following his gaze, the color of the sky appeared strange.
The sky, which should have been a clear blue, was now a mix of various colors.
Blue, red, orange, brown...
Although the colors were not unfamiliar, their appearance in the sky was something that had never happened before.
Everyone could see that it was not a simple natural phenomenon.
Unlike the "tidal bore" of the past, this sky is probably a magical phenomenon that has gone out of control for some reason.
"What on earth happened? That direction... isn't that Kylorans?!"
It was so large that even from a great distance, one could still see the dark vortex formed by the immense magical power.
"I hope it won't be a disaster..."
For "Hai Chao," it is already a ticking time bomb in this world. It was a great disaster that appeared out of nowhere on the Eastern continent decades ago, and since when did it begin to spread to the whole world?
~~~
The old man was not the only one who noticed the strange changes in the sky.
With such a massive fluctuation of magical energy, it's impossible not to attract attention.
Especially the world's top beings, not even the slightest fluctuation of magic can escape their perception, let alone something of this scale.
In other words, such a sudden event seems more like a deliberate attempt to attract the attention of certain powerful entities.
The truth about its purpose can only be revealed by personally going to the center of the magic convergence point.
—In the Red Dragon Mountains.
A middle-aged man stepped over the corpse of the dragon he had just killed.
"Huh? What's going on? This magic?"
He stared in astonishment at the southwestern sky, at the strange vortex, and his expression turned grim.
Aside from the "Seven Great Powers," there is only one other person in the world capable of possessing such magical power: the sealed "Forbidden Witch."
"Magic is constantly gathering? Who could it be?"
Although the man was in his mid-twenties, he had a head of white hair of varying lengths, giving him a rather ancient look. However, his cold and handsome face exuded an indescribable sense of oppression.
"Hmm...this is..."
As if suddenly sensing something within the immense magical power, his expression grew increasingly grim, eventually turning into resentment.
"finally found you!"
So the man headed straight southwest.
Although dozens of giant dragons were coiled around it, none of them dared to approach rashly.
They knew very well who the creatures walking on the ground were, and that even if they attacked together, they would be killed.
Just now, a fearless dragon, because it didn't take him seriously, roared and charged at the man, but before it could even touch the man's clothes, it was slapped away.
What kind of strength is this?
Even a dragon, devoid of intelligence, can understand how transcendent it is to be slapped away by a human.
That was Onigvas, the "Angel God".
They are an entity that should absolutely not be made an enemy of.
Even though he watched his companion die tragically on the spot, he could only stay in the sky and watch helplessly, not daring to make any rash moves.
At this moment, two more arrogant young dragons launched an attack on Onigwas.
It spews flames from its mouth and flaps wind blades with its wings.
However, such power only caused Onigvas's robes to flutter slightly, and then a strong hurricane swept around in an instant.
One of the dragons instantly exploded.
Immediately afterwards, Onigvas turned and stared at the other dragon, his eyes filled with intense killing intent.
But in the dragon's amber eyes, an incomparably terrifying fear was reflected, and it frantically flapped its wings to flee the scene.
Onigvas ignored the dragon and turned to continue walking down the mountain.
Watched by the dragon herd...
~~~
—In a primeval forest.
"Hmm... this magic power... looks like that guy's up to his old tricks again!"
Beneath his bronze skin were exaggerated muscle bulges, as if containing an extremely wild power.
Beneath its imposing body, a silver-gray tail trailed behind it, appearing utterly out of place.
"Forget it! It's not my fault! Someone will handle it..."
He seemed to be able to sense who possessed the magic, but he had no interest in getting involved.
Besides, he didn't think that the guy would appreciate his reckless act of helping him...
And he was none other than the "Beast God" Hruman.
~~~
—In the distant northern glaciers.
Boom...
With a loud explosion, the towering iceberg collapsed after violent shaking, unleashing a massive avalanche.
Then, a beautiful figure landed on the ground. She was petite and had long, golden hair that cascaded down her back. Her delicate features were slightly pale.
"As expected... I still can't fully adapt to this place?"
The woman looked up at the falling ice and snowflakes, muttering to herself.
"It seems... we need to develop a forbidden magic with immense power; simply injecting a large amount of magic power won't be enough."
Seemingly noticing the strong magical fluctuations coming from the mainland, the woman stopped what she was doing and turned her head to look south.
"Hmm? This magic power?"
A look of surprise and doubt crossed her face, as if there was no other person in the world with such magical power besides herself.
"It doesn't seem like 'the tide,' so who is it?"
The woman also frowned, but it seemed that nothing in the world could attract his attention except for forbidden magic.
Yes, she is Natalie Henria, the "Sea Goddess".
~~~
—Somewhere in “Pierpoint”.
A huge city sits on barren land.
The city is circular in shape, with many towers scattered in various corners, forming a defensive formation, which shows how prosperous the city was in the past.
But at this moment, it appears extremely dilapidated and desolate. The only intact thing in the city is probably the huge statue in the center, which is the only symbol of this city, the first Demon King.
But it eventually became history, gradually decaying with the passage of time.
In the center of the city, there is another eye-catching building.
That was the heart of the entire town, and the most luxurious palace in the city. In the center of the palace stood a pillar, surrounded by books and all sorts of strange utensils. The walls were painted with various symbols. It was the so-called Demon King's Palace.
At this moment, in the Demon King's Palace, the Demon Emperor Cocoshiri Chishilica was looking up at the east.
"Hmph! A master like me can clearly see what's happening in Kylorans even from inside the Demon King's Palace. Isn't that amazing?"
"Hmm! Let me see... Such immense magical power, it's truly amazing!"
However, even when she shouted at the top of her lungs, no one around her responded.
Yes, the entire Demon King's Palace was empty except for her.
"Hmph! That wretched aura! It's that guy! He still won't give up!"
"Hmph! But I don't take him seriously at all! That's right! Even if he were to use his hands and feet, he still wouldn't be a match for me! Because I am the Demon Emperor Kekexili!"
It was clear that she was very lonely; even though she possessed such a large Demon King's castle, there was no one to talk to her.
"Hahaha! Your fearsome Demon King has been resurrected! Tremble, all of you! Hahaha... cough cough... hahahaha..."
Since no one in the vast Demon King's Palace could respond to her when she was resurrected, she simply ran to a human town and burst into laughter.
Even after doing all that, no one responded to her.
"Hmph! They're just mortals! They really don't know what's good for them!"
The first thing she did after being resurrected was to recruit her first follower, a slime with a soft body.
Yes, since it's a low-level monster, it can't escape at all.
"Submit to me! I will conquer the entire world! Then I will give you half, my demon general, Eloska Zinakua Lord Pilizaka! Haha... cough cough... hahaha..."
Yes, that was the name she gave the slime. It sounded really cringeworthy, but there was really no other way.
However, despite this, they still received no response.
Yes, how could a low-level monster speak?
Gazing at the enormous magical vortex in the east, she could only sigh as she embarked on her journey.
However, she just randomly picked a direction, since in her eyes such things should be solved by heroes, and had nothing to do with her.
~~~
—Me at the same time, in the capital.
"Ugh... I can't sleep at all."
Yes, I'm going to settle things with those noisy guys downstairs.
He rolled out of bed, put on his coat, and of course, he couldn't forget his robe. Even though he was going downstairs to settle a dispute, he had to dress properly to avoid catching a cold.
"Huh? Isn't the boss here?"
After going downstairs, the lady who usually works at the counter was not there, and the hotel doors were already closed.
"That's really suspicious..."
Even if it's the Sixth Prince's wedding, there's no need to close the doors.
I realized things might not be so simple, but I couldn't quite put my finger on what was strange about it, so I just walked out onto the street with a sense of unease.
What came into view was... a whole troop of guards assembled?
"Are these the noisy bastards who make such a racket early in the morning?"
But has something happened in the palace again?
Looking at the entire guard team, there were probably several hundred people, and there were quite a few mages among them, which could be identified by the magic wands in their hands and their clothing.
"Uh... what happened?"
This is the first time I've ever seen such a spectacle.
"Hey! You brat over there! Don't wander around like that if you don't have anything to do! Get back inside!"
At that moment, a knight in heavy armor reprimanded me in an unpleasant tone.
This sound is the main source of the recent commotion!
"cut……"
I hate it when people talk to me in that tone, especially when I'm in a really bad mood.
So I simply ignored her and headed towards the direction of the Albad family's residence. If something really happened at the palace, Duke Albad would probably know something about it.
Hey! You little brat over there!
"Who do you think you are! How rude of you!"
Not only did they wake me from my deep sleep, but they also shouted like that. Even I have a bad temper when I wake up.
I'm not going to pay any attention to him!
"What a strange child?"
However, it seems that this is the kind of evaluation one would receive.
"You're the weird bastard!"
In short, it's best to simply ignore such people.
"Huh? What's that...?"
When I reached the center of the square, I noticed the still unclear sky, but it was completely different from usual.
That is...
A giant vortex?
