Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

I gave him the first chance, and I knew this would be disadvantageous to me, but still, I went with it.

I wanted to show off today, so I was going to use a [Rune]. Not a [[< Rune spell >]], just a word from the entire thing.

Actually, using a spell of runes would be catastrophic for this place, and for me.

I was nowhere near strong to use that thing even if I have managed to script three of them in my mind throughout my years in the tower library.

It was special knowledge that she gave permission to have. And the part of the library where all of that knowledge was stored was her special notes area.

Something that was specially written by her in a language that maybe she, Zoe, and only I could understand.

Runes were incomparably rare, and a spell of rune? Something like that would be impossible to even think was possible.

But, it actually was possible, and from gods to divine beasts used them when the needs arose.

And I only figured this out after she was gone...

She's gone.

'Haaa...'

There was an opponent before me, so wondering in my thoughts was a mistake, but thankfully, he waited for the moment I was distracted.

He nodded at me when I came back, and I thanked him for understanding the sudden surge of emotions.

I will have to do something about that soon.

I was ready, and the (: Absolut defense) spell was completely in place.

This one was strong and used up a good amount of Solnova but, it was worth it.

My opponent was a wizard, an Aether master, an Archmage, and someone who possessed a [Soul Armament] like me.

Ronna was something I can't use anytime soon while his weapon, he can use it, but... he won't.

It wasn't necessary at all.

Those things were something we use against an overwhelming enemy, not in a test against an eleven-year-old, no less.

His normal spells were enough, maybe Aether spells if he wanted to have some more fun.

And I was strong enough to only block his (tier-6) or below spell.

His Mana had many characteristics and heaviness, potency, and purity were some of them.

Just his (tier-1) spell would be as strong as my (tier-3) Solnova spells.

I was that much weak, and having that in mind, he started the attack with his first spell.

But... oh, mother nature...

This old man is mad, isn't he?

Using a (tier-4) spell from the start, and an Aether spell no less?

'Oi crazy old man... don't overestimate me! I'm weak, dude!'

There was a light blue magic circle before his stretched-out hand, weird energy powering the spell and the spell only, no excess use whatsoever.

The control of Mana, understanding of Magic to create something so beautiful even I have to admire the beauty without question, the sudden heaviness, and the calm smile that knew I will 'survive'.

'Damn I will. I can't die to a magic spell when I have survived a demonic beast!'

But just one barrier wasn't enough for this one.

It would just barely block this pure destructive fire, light, wind tri-attribute spell that will cause an absurd explosion.

And, well, bye-bye to all the barriers the workers have repaired.

'(Anti-explosion barrier), (Destruction barrier), (Attribute cancelation).'

Some of the strongest spells I had scripted, and this much would be enough to survive this explosion.

It should... no. It must.

He looked at me, and I smiled at him, ready to take on this challenge, and I could see it with my third eye... everyone was still nervous.

Rein was clenching her hands while mom was praying with all her might and others were the same.

They believed in both of us, and even if they didn't know anything that was going on right now, it was fine.

He raised his hand and a ball of sky blue fire manifested in his hand.

It looked beautiful but before I could catch just a glimpse of it... it shot forward as soon as it appeared and then, stopping in the high sky, it started growing.

A sky blue fireball, and if looked closer, in the middle of it, was a white dot or more like an explosive reaction...

I was confident in these defensive barriers, but that thing in the sky still send shivers down my spine.

To create something like this... not even I can do that with all the two-world knowledge I had at the moment.

It was complex, powerful, deadly, but more than that... it was magnificent.

A spell from an archmage... nothing like hers but something unique of its own.

,m I had stars like Anna, Zoe, and Alf while looking at it, and Alf in particular was more amazed than even me.

He really was amazing, but I had no spare time to worry about that one.

It was a wide area spell, and now... it was falling down at me.

And if I wanted to compare it with something, then a heavy military bunker destroyer from my past world's old times would fit its estimated destructive power.

And I was going to come out unscratched from this explosion.

"Well, I think you got the first one, young boy~." He complemented with a radiant smile on his charming face and the fire was falling down, exactly at me.

The ball of fire was large, and it was coming at me with all its might, and I was going to endure it with a cheerful smile of my own.

The fireball fell, colliding with my protective barriers but, before the sheer power, nothing could last for much longer.

The spells that I was confident in managed to block the initial collision, but as the power increased and the core of the explosive neared the barrier, I knew the three weren't going to last that long, thankfully; I knew the fourth one would be enough to block the rest... though barely.

The outer surface of the fireball finished the collision and in the process, the surrounding ground was almost turned into a pool of scorching hot lava.

But, as soon as the core of this fire, the white light in the middle of the fireball touched the surface of the barrier...

-Boooooooom!
