If I Had To Say, I Would Say I Am A Evil Magician 149 (Patreon)

On Par

On the other hand, when it comes to the guy whom Lily and company are directing their bloodlust at, he'd already started an intense battle. At the beginning of the battle is, the swift intersecting sounds of slashing attacks. The dull, unpleasant metallic sounds reverberate amongst the trees.

The sword that appeared above the Dark Magician's head, was blocked by Mira's knife.

"......well done. With a small knife like that"

"I am honoured to be praised by you"

While saying that, she turns the attack around and thrusts at Raynes' chest, but it's easily avoided.

At first glance, it looked like their capabilities are on par.

"Well done huh. There is only about a handful In the entire continent; an individual who can take Klose Chivalric Order's Captain in close combat"

Delta lets out his genuine admiration.

"......kukuku, it's the other way around, right? That Raynes-kun or whatever should be proud; to be able to go toe to toe with the doll I created"

In response, Asch takes the opportunity to put up a strong front.

He doesn't want to yield the initiative no matter what. 'You guys are challenging me, someone superior', is the Dark Magician's absurd pride.

"Fuu......you really are the same as always huh. That kind of pettifogging, it is humorous in my eyes instead"

"......"

Interrogation it is. It doesn't matter whether he's a former student or whatever he is. 'I'll make him write a hundred-page reflection essay while kneeling, prostrating, and begging for his life in tears', he swears in his heart.

"By the way, are you fine with your students? The golems I created are not that weak"

"You were, albeit temporarily, my student, right? They're all responsible for themselves"

"......I doubted my ears when I heard you became a teacher. However, now I'm certain; that you, are a Devil in human's clothing!"

"I think so too"

Even as she's having an intense exchange with Raynes, the competent butler voices her agreement.

It's very much against his wish, but Asch switches from spectator mode to battle mode. The sight where he overwhelms his enemies, without moving a single finger, was his ideal development, but all his prior preparation have been sealed, and he has no choice but to battle.

"I'll end it for you in an instant"

Maximus Magic. The forte of Asch, a Dark Magician.

＜＜Oh Pitch Black, Oh Endless Darkness, Oh Souls Of The Abyss, Assemble And Display The Despair Of Death＞＞ーーPurgatory Of The Sheol(Zeno・Berserk)

An enormous darkness that should be released from his palms. The shadow envelops any and everything rapidly and swallows Delta......or so it should.

However, nothing happens.

"......why"

"Asch＝Dahl-sensei. You have one other weakness. You love Dark Magic too much. If you are that specialised in Darkness, it's like you're telling me to please seal it"

In response, Delta starts his chant too.

＜＜Oh Symbolism Of Light, Become A Blade Of Holiness, And Pass Judgement, On The Sinners＞＞ーー Seal Of Light (Saint・Stark)

Numerous blinding arrows of light attack the Dark Magician.

"U, uooooooooooooh"

Dodge dodge dodge. He desperately dodges the fired arrows continuously.

".........hahahaha, as always, you are good at just running away huh"

"......"

Slavery. Slavery it is. He'll beat him up until there's not a spot on him that hasn't a wound, put handcuffs on him, chain him up, and rear him. 'I'll brand a slave's insignia on him, sell him off to the slave market, buy him on the auction, and get the rearing rights' the manic Magician swore in his heart.

However, why did Dark Magic not activate. It's normally not possible, to rob someone else of their magic. Did Delta become such an impressive Magician. Or, is there some other gimmick. If he's dodging, he can't properly gather his thoughts.

Just like before, the former student was overwhelming the mentor.
