Immortals From My Past Life Are Still Obsessed With the Reincarnated Me

39 – Save the witch (1)

‘What should I call it, should I just call it a witch?’

I glared at the mysterious witch and rolled her head.

First of all, as long as he was wearing a magic engineering brainwashing leash, it was clear that he was being manipulated by the demon brother and sister Elfin talked about.

However, it was unknown whether the witch had come this far because she started being manipulated around this academy, or whether she had been accompanied by the demon brother and sister from the beginning.

That’s also true, since Elfin had never talked about the ‘third’ other than the demon brother and sister.

‘Maybe they’ve been together since the beginning.’

The fact that the demons came in hiding must have been revealed because there were witnesses.

It’s just that this witch went unnoticed by the witnesses.

The reason was none other than the magic engineering equipment that was attached to the witch’s cloak.

While coming all the way from the Devil’s Landing, it’s a ridiculous story that he kept wearing those magic engineering equipment and handed them over to a brainwashed person.

‘Perhaps he was brainwashed a long time ago and even attached the equipment.’

If you have items like a magic engineering brainwashing leash or a magic engineering cloak that hides your identity, it is clear that there is something in the magical engineering side.

I also thought that there might be more people behind it.

There is a force aiming for something inside the academy, and the demonic brother and sister and the witch may be subcontractors of that force.

‘Once I survive here and get out, it will be revealed.’

If there were a total of 3 people including the witch over there, since the witch came to me, Elfin or Justina would have gone to the demon brother and sister.

I believed that as long as I survived this witch, Elfin or Justina would use their powers to uncover the truth about her.

To do that, you must first cut off the witch’s cloak and ask for help.

‘I’d like to cut off the leash, but.’

There is a huge difference in difficulty between cutting off the fluttering cloak and aiming for the neck.

I have figured out the enemy’s skills to some extent, and I am also aware of my fraction.

So I decided to try as much as possible in the area I could.

Wedge love liquid!

“Be careful, young boy!”

At that moment, the witch shot seven icicles at me.

I tried to dodge it using shadowy walking like when I was aiming for the cloak, or to attack it with a sword, but strangely, it didn’t feel right.

A sharp icicle flying through the air.

Should I say that I could feel the split air flow through my tactile senses?

As I was about to throw myself, a huge shield blocked my path.

Ting, teeing… Blasphemy!

It wasn’t just a shield, it was a magic shield created by Charlotte.

The magical shield blocking my path caught the witch’s icicle.

I was fine until the first and second shots, but by the time I received the seventh shot, the shield had a huge crack.

Anyway, the important thing was that the icicles didn’t even touch my body.

“Thank you, Charlotte!”

I said thanks and immediately prepared for a counterattack.

It was quite surprising that Charlotte’s shield had stopped the witch’s icicles before.

Because the icicles from a while ago were completely different from the first icicles.

In terms of speed, power, or anything else, there was no comparison.

If I had taken care of the first attack, I felt that the last attack was really killing me and I tried my best.

It was a situation where if I tried to dodge or parry like the first time, I might have been hit by one, so Charlotte’s magic shield was no different from saving me.

‘Why did it suddenly change?’

Could it be that the pitiful appearance of her requesting to save the witch earlier was an act?

Have you deliberately pretended to be weak and then suddenly revealed your true strength?

‘…… No, it would be correct that he resisted the brainwashing leash and suppressed the power of the attack as much as possible before conveying the message to me.’

Even his eyes were cloudy and dark, probably because he had been brainwashed.

“Ah, ahahahahaha! Freeze everything to death! A kid with a sword, a girl, everything! I’ll make them all sweets!”

Not only that, but I couldn’t understand what he was saying.

Convinced that I had completely lost my taste, I changed my posture a bit.

From now on, I was convinced that I had to do my best every moment.

‘I’m still immature, but… ….’

It’s been a week since I entered Denbergen Academy.

On the first day, after realizing the abundant talent of protection magic, I devised a way to use protection magic well according to my constitution as much as possible.

Rather than helping others, like Professor Darnay said, I’d rather cast protection magic on myself to strengthen my abilities.

It was clear that simply strengthening strength and speed would be of great help, but there was a special protection magic that only suited me.

“First of all, the protection of physical strength.”

The trembling in my legs, which were already staggering after a little fight, stopped.

My weak body stood upright, and my dizzy head calmed down.

It feels like a sickly patient has been cured, but this only lasts until the mana runs out.

However, if the protection magic ends with only one health replenishment, the possibility of gaining an advantage over the witch is still low.

You can fight longer, not better.

Damn it!

“Kiki, hee hee hee hee! I will tear you apart and kill you!”

At that moment, ice bombs exploded indiscriminately in the air.

Small but sharp ice pellets fly in all directions, trying to pierce skin and bones and embed themselves deep.

I strained my eyes to see all the particles, but no matter how good my eyesight was, it was impossible to see each and every tiny particle.

It is also impossible for Charlotte, who has just erected her shield, to cast her magic right away.

Impossible, impossible, impossible… Everywhere was filled with the word impossible.

However, as she gathers mana and focuses it on her eyes, the world full of impossibility suddenly slows down and turns into possible.

[Blessing: Visual Enhancement]

For a moment, the world slowed down and seemed to stop.

I wonder if Liwin, who cast time stop magic in a specific space, felt like this.

Everything from the traces of the swiftly flying grains to the moving lines were all visible.

All I had to do was to step slowly but surely, step by step, stepping only where the grains could not reach.

‘Is this the world seen with enhanced vision?’

There are countless types of protection magic.

Magicians who learn both normal magic and protection magic can enhance the effect of normal magic itself by increasing the firepower of normal magic or reducing mana consumption.

Weakening magic, summoning magic, or various aspects of mental magic could be strengthened with protection magic.

Not only that, but it was also possible to strengthen an individual’s physical abilities such as strength, speed, or flexibility with divine protection.

‘The thing I am confident in is probably my sensory abilities.’

And this bodily ability also included sensory organs.

Visual, auditory, olfactory, gustatory, tactile, balance, etc…….

I was able to strengthen my sensory abilities with protection magic.

If it is possible to make up for one’s weaknesses with protection magic or to further strengthen one’s strengths, then there are two options.

I didn’t have to choose one or the other, I just had to take both.

‘Fill in weaknesses with physical protection, and solidify strengths with sensory protection.’

Physical protection was installed as a basic, and the first thing I thought of among the sensory protection was visual protection.

Once the senses of smell and taste didn’t attract me that much, so I put them aside, so the only things left are my senses of hearing, touch, and sight.

It is clear that hearing and tactile senses are very helpful in battle, but it was unavoidable that sight came to mind first.

Because it is the most useful sense to read, dodge, and block an opponent’s attack.

And this is the result of the protection magic that I practiced for a week.

‘Slow world.’

As I concentrate my consciousness, everything in my field of view slows down.

Is this because the reaction speed soared as well?

But seeing things that were not visible, such as mana, it was clear that the visual enhancement was effective.

For example… I couldn’t understand it because of my limited knowledge of magic, but I was able to see how the witch’s magic changed into magic and exploded.

You don’t have to understand. You just need to know where it will explode and avoid it.

I approached the witch without wasting a single step, using the shady step method efficiently.

‘Slowly, but calmly.’

I was too slow in a slow world.

Just as the opponent looks slow even if I run with all my might, I am also slow.

The voice of Charlotte calling me from behind and the voice of the witch screaming loudly were also muffled and incomprehensible.

It was a side effect of the world slowing down due to excessively strengthening the reaction speed along with the vision.

‘I can see it.’

Furthermore, the second effect of visual enhancement is gradually starting to appear.

If the first was the rapid increase in reaction speed that accompanied visual reinforcement, the second was the effect of visual reinforcement alone.

Perspective.

The invisible is visible.

Just as the flow of magical power, which is clearly invisible to ordinary warriors, was visualized and began to look like a stream of water, a figure hidden by cloth came into view.

‘That’s the body inside the cloak?’

The inside of the witch’s cloak, which was visible at first glance.

Currently, the cloak could not be lifted, so even though there was an obstacle, he could see through it.

‘This was still immature.’

When I practiced, it was difficult to adjust, so I failed several times.

There was a time when I looked through it so much that I could see the muscles and bones inside the skin of a person.

I didn’t say it, but during rehearsal, I happened to see through just one piece of clothing, so I said sorry to Charlotte in my heart.

So it was a skill that I was very anxious about, but when I came to the actual battle, I was able to see through it to the right level.

‘It’s really all magical equipment. Life support device, that is also life support device, I know that the brainwashing leash is worn around the neck, and the cape is also a magical engineering device…….’

He had little knowledge of magic engineering, but thanks to his popularity, he was able to recognize at least a life support device.

The brainwashing leash was the same as the one on the monster neck I saw a few days ago.

I didn’t know the principle of the cloak in detail, but as Charlotte said, it was clear that it was a magic engineering device, seeing as it had a complicated device inside it.

‘Life support system.’

The thing I was most concerned about was the life support system.

If all the things that were clinging like that were life support devices, it means that humans who are practically corpses are being saved and rolled.

I wonder who the hell is behind the demon brother and sister to do something like this?

But now that wasn’t something I could figure out.

I moved forward step by step lightly.

It feels completely different from walking without visual enhancement.

The witch’s movement to escape and the movement to respond were all visible.

It didn’t make much sense that he couldn’t cut off the cloak from such a perfect field of view.

Suddenly!

The witch’s cloak was split exactly in half.
