Chapter 296.
The first person to start casting their magic was the s.p.a.ce Specialist. "Like a movement marking the beginning of the world, dots, infinite dots!"
The Curse Specialist was the next to start his incantation. "Pure evil born in the beginning, darkness that has fallen into the infinite abyss after losing to goodwill!"
I was the last one to start casting. "I"m a person who walks on a network consisting of lines connecting countless nodes!"
The start of each person’s magic was different, but no one dared to compete for dominance of the mana that spread violently in all directions. The incantations persisted in the fierce battle between the forming domains.
"Lines, boundless lines, and multiple lines fix the stability of dimensions!"
"A collection of absolute malice that rules the dragon of ruin, the existence of an abyss wors.h.i.+pped by demons in h.e.l.l!"
"Gather the lines here and make a hub and connect them all!”
As the overwhelming domain fights intensified, the domains began to overlap with each other. Not only me, like riders on a crazed bull, the s.p.a.ce Specialist and Curse Specialist also couldn"t stop at this point as they continued to chant.
"As if comprising the movement of life, sides, infinite sides, and multiple sides!"
"The resulting purity of the beginning arising from the abyss, whose form has not been decided. Curse of the abyss!"
"Every dot in the world. Put a line here, unite! Powerfully! Powerfully!”
Usually, when a battle of domain proclamations occurred, the more complete and solid domains would consume the others. I have never seen nor heard of domains getting mixed up like this without a clear result.
The two great madosas and I had cold sweat at the unexpected situation but completed our domains.
"To combine the composition of these substances to transcend dimensions! Overlap here! Multi-dimensional illusion!"
"Rise back up to this land and eat the world! Manifest here! Pure evil of beginning!"
"I"m the one who controls the net! All dots below me, surrender! Hacking Field!"
As the incantations were finished, the completed domains mixed together in one area, distorting the s.p.a.ce. At the same time, the area was also filled with pure death energy.
"Hahahaha! Who would have thought this could happen! This was a war that I was forced to partic.i.p.ate in, but what a huge harvest!” The s.p.a.ce Specialist wiped away his sweat and looked at the domains with sparkling eyes.
"….Amazing."
"It ended up being split three ways."
The Curse Specialist and I also reacted in the same way.
If you’re within another person’s domain, you’ll barely be able to use the mana in your surroundings. Two and a half years ago, solely from being in Hillis" domain during the martial arts compet.i.tion, the impact was so significant that I lost my Half-and-Half Mask. But now, my domain occupied this area alongside the other two’s domains. Any magician would be curious if they were placed in this situation.
"Now! Shall we acquire as much data from this rare situation as possible!?"
At my words, the s.p.a.ce Specialist and Curse Specialist nodded.
"Good! I"ll go first!" The s.p.a.ce Specialist controlled his domain and folded the s.p.a.ce I was standing in.
It was highly challenging magic, but the s.p.a.ce Specialist was being supported by his domain, allowing him to omit the formula construction and incantation. I smiled playfully and went inside the folding s.p.a.ce before teleporting behind the s.p.a.ce Specialist.
"How?!" The s.p.a.ce Specialist grew fl.u.s.tered when he didn"t detect my teleportation, and I tried to cut him with the Holy Sword.
The s.p.a.ce Specialist moved to my original position due to the effect of Isolation Dimension, which was previously cast before the domain proclamation. The s.p.a.ce Specialist was faced with the folding s.p.a.ce instead of me, and he urgently canceled the magic.
"What did you do?! How can you fool my senses while using s.p.a.ce magic?!" The s.p.a.ce Specialist bit his lips as if his pride had been damaged.
"Who knows?! I wonder what happened?" I pretended to be surprised and laughed jokingly.
In fact, I did nothing more than move through s.p.a.ce using the s.p.a.ce Specialist’s magic. The hacking field, my domain proclamation, was literally magic that hacked and controlled magic cast in the domain.
"Maybe that"s how great my s.p.a.ce magic is?"
Of course, it was difficult for me to hack into a great madosa’s magic even with my domain’s a.s.sistance. That is, if the other person knew what my domain did and resisted. On the other hand, this also meant that if my opponent wasn"t aware of my domain"s effect, I could take advantage of them as much as I wanted.
"Hmph! I"m sure you used my domain!" The s.p.a.ce Specialist said and tried to a.n.a.lyze my domain. Yet, that won"t be easy. Because I’ll interrupt!
"Don"t you know that peeping into someone else"s house is a crime?!" I shouted and fired thousands of lightning arrows at the s.p.a.ce Specialist.
"Ahaha! What insignificant interference!"
The s.p.a.ce Specialist teleported the incoming lightning arrows toward me instead. I slightly twisted the s.p.a.ce Specialist’s magic, changing the target of the teleportation to the Curse Specialist.
The Curse Specialist was suddenly showered with lightning arrows, and he quickly put up a barrier and blocked them. "What do you think you’re doing!?"
"Ahahaha! It seems you two really do have a bad relations.h.i.+p!"
The Curse Specialist grew incensed, and I smiled joyfully and tried to drive them apart.
"Hmm? That’s weird.”
"What are you saying went wrong?!" The Curse Specialist poured out the pure evil curse energy that was melted into his domain and launched it at the confused s.p.a.ce Specialist. The s.p.a.ce Specialist isolated the energy of the curse into s.p.a.ce and teleported it back to me.
I swung my magic wand to dissipate the energy of the curse, which made the Curse Specialist grow interested in me.
"How did you do that?" While muttering this, he tried to get confirmation by pouring out more curse energy rather than listening to an explanation from me.
That was a mistake! This is dangerous.
I flew up high to avoid the large amount of curse energy that suddenly rushed towards me, but the s.p.a.ce Specialist used his s.p.a.ce magic to prevent me from dodging. I hacked into the movement-blocking barrier that surrounded me and used it to seal the energy of the curse.
"Stay still!"
"I didn"t do that! What?! What"s wrong with this?" The s.p.a.ce Specialist was bewildered by his magic suddenly not listening to him. Then, he noticed the effect of my domain at once. "You punk! You stole control of my magic in secret!"
"Ahahaha! You got me!"
He was indeed a great madosa. I can"t believe he noticed it after only three times. However, the preparation for the base was already completed.
"How fun! That"s why I couldn"t read the s.p.a.ce magic you used! Because it was my magic!"
"Ahahaha! That"s correct!"
I shot dozens of Thunder that Races Across the Sky at the s.p.a.ce Specialist. By borrowing the power of the domain, it was possible to use great magic at the same time without the expedient known as Chirps. My domain proclamation did not stop at simply hacking magic. Even the opponent"s computational power and mana circuit could be hacked and used.
"Ugh!"
"Keuk!"
The s.p.a.ce Specialist and the Curse Specialist hurriedly grabbed the mana being sucked out of them in bundles. The s.p.a.ce Specialist tried to avoid the attack by quickly teleporting. Yet, when the teleportation failed due to my hacking, he avoided my Thunder Racing Across the Sky with high-speed maneuvers.
"My magic and mana! You won’t be able to use them as you wish anymore!"
The s.p.a.ce Specialist and Curse Specialist controlled their domains and firmly defended themselves. Certainly, using the magic or mana circuit of two great madosas was too much at the moment.
"Really? Then I"ll give up on you two." At my words, the s.p.a.ce Specialist and the Curse Specialist became wary. I smiled lightly and swung my magic wand.
"Domain proclamation Mark 2! DDoS Attack!” As I shouted, nearly 10,000 magicians flew up from the battlefield. Among these people were a number of magicians from the Magic Kingdom.
"John? I told you not to interfere rashly!"
"T, teacher-nim! My body isn’t listening to me!"
"What?"
The person who just called the s.p.a.ce Specialist ‘teacher’ was a madosa.
"There"s quite a lot of big fish. Go! Zombie magicians!"
The magicians who were hacked and infected by my domain started to inject mana into their wands. All at once, they attacked the s.p.a.ce Specialist and Curse Specialist. Even the madosas mixed in with the magicians were no exception. Due to the countless magic attacks soaring toward them from all directions, the two great madosas were forced to defend by swiftly flying in sporadic movements.
"You... You wicked person! Stop this!" The s.p.a.ce Specialist’s disciple tried to rebel by clenching his teeth, but he continued to put his all into casting his magic at the s.p.a.ce Specialist.
I casually ignored him and spoke to the s.p.a.ce Specialist. "Ahahaha! What do you think? This is the magician corps that I control!"
I thought the s.p.a.ce Specialist would be angry, but unexpectedly, he laughed joyfully, "Puhahahaha! I"ve never seen a crazy guy like you! So you’re even more insane than your teacher! Good! Curse Specialist! Let"s work together!"
Throughout the battle, the s.p.a.ce Specialist had repeatedly called his fellow great madosa Communication Disorder. Yet, now, he referred to the Curse Specialist properly and proposed an alliance.
The Curse Specialist clicked his tongue and nodded. "Tch, all right, s.p.a.ce Specialist."
The Curse Specialist had been calling him a Bit*h, but he also addressed the s.p.a.ce Specialist correctly and accepted the alliance proposal.
"If I had known about your domain from the beginning, it would have been a good one-on-one match."
"I know, but this is a war,” I said.
The s.p.a.ce Specialist nodded pleasantly. "Yes. The Curse Specialist and I have been defeated after letting our guard down for a while. We forgot that we"re in a war! I"ll admit this. But we only lost as individuals, not as allies!"
"...How cringy,” the Curse Specialist murmured.
The s.p.a.ce Specialist laughed pleasantly, "Ahahaha! Shut up! I don"t want to form an alliance with you either! But I should teach that punk defeat!"
"I agree.” The Curse Specialist nodded and materialized pure curses. The s.p.a.ce Specialist divided the materialized curses into small pieces and teleported them to me. I interfered with the teleportation as much as I could.
Although it was impossible to take control, I could interfere with their magic. But it was too challenging to interfere with all of them, so I flew around quickly to avoid the curses that flew at me.
"You loach-like punk!"
The s.p.a.ce Specialist and Curse Specialist persistently targeted me, offsetting their subordinate’s magic charging in from all sides. As the two great madosas’ tenaciously attacked, a few curses flew toward me and could not be avoided.
"Friend s.h.i.+eld!" Whenever that happened, I escaped the crisis by using the two’s disciples as s.h.i.+elds.
"You wicked man!"
"Thanks for the compliment. Now! Launching an energetic great magic at the front!"
The s.p.a.ce Specialist’s disciple named John had become a s.h.i.+eld, and he cursed but continued to fire great magic as a faithful doll. "I’m sorry, Teacher-nim!"
"Oh! You incompetent disciple! Devote yourself more in the future!"
The s.p.a.ce Specialist simply dispersed the disciple"s great magic and teleported to the s.p.a.ce behind me.
"I can read your pattern!" I shot a Dragon Breath at the antic.i.p.ated teleportation. The mana and computational power extracted from about 10,000 magicians was giving me infinite power.
"Keuk! I"m the bait! You fool!" The s.p.a.ce Specialist shouted while receiving my Dragon Breath directly, and at that moment, I realized my mistake.
While I was focused on the s.p.a.ce Specialist, the Curse Specialist had closed in on me using the s.p.a.ce Specialist’s teleportation, and he now sent a materialized curse at me.
"As the first flower of the World Tree, I order you! Bless!" Holy Tribe magic was a kind of magic that could not be handled with my proclaimed domain, so I had to chant each incantation.
"Tch!"
The magic that I hurriedly launched was not enough to block the curse of the Curse Specialist. I poured as much mana as I could into the Holy Sword and flew at the curse rus.h.i.+ng towards me.
