The Absolute Twin Magician

Ozax Mathel

A vampire with strange hair, suddenly appears and snatches Death Wand from the old man's hands. And of course, the vampire who claimed to be named Ozax Mathel was a noble class vampire. It could be seen from its aura as well as its unfathomable speed of movement.

Vampires do have unreasonable speeds. However, noble vampires are much faster than ordinary vampires. If an ordinary vampire had a speed of motion twice as fast as a human, then a noble vampire was 3 times faster than a human.

"Give me the stick!" My yelling. Well, even though I knew that he would definitely reject it.

"Death Wand is ours, vampire. In your hands, this is just an ordinary old thing. Only vampires can awaken the true power of this wand" Ozax said.

And right then and there, he ran out of us, into a passageway that seemed to be his way out. But wait a minute, isn't the entrance at the seal? How did this vampire get in? Is it not because the grandfather took off the Death Wand seal, then the seal on the door also came off? If that's the case, we'll have to catch him before he reaches the surface.

"Ability Boost!"

Guts' body instantly filled with Manna. And half of all the Manna was gathered at his feet, making every step he took into a jolt. With just a single leg, Guts' body shot out like a missile.

It was Guts' ultimate magic, Ability Boost. A magic that can increase the ability here its users. And in the case of Guts, this magic can change the Manna on his body to improve all his physical status. His body will become stout, and his strength will be like a monster. And since he had an abundant amount of Manna like Elie, his strength could increase even more.

Guts' body darted in pursuit of Ozax. I can't believe it's even faster than Ozax, a noble vampire.

Aided by Zero's teleport magic, we caught up with Guts chasing after him. While behind us Elie tried hard to heal the old man who was injured, even though his broken hands were unlikely to be able to return to how they were.

"It's troublesome. Honestly, I really wanted to kill you. But I'm in a hurry!"

"You think we care about that?!"

Guts again stomped his feet, made a chunk of rock rise and covered the exit.

"Currently, you gave me no choice ...." Mumbled. "Blood Sacrified: The Crimson."

Blood clots appeared on his hands, forming a blood-red claw lining his right hand. Ozax quickly turned around and slashed the Guts with the claw. However, Guts managed to hold it back with his sword.

Following the flow of the fight, I advanced with a long sword in my hand. With the sword skills I learned from Kallen, I managed to push him a little. Even so, Guts' massive attack made the stone wall he had made slowly destroyed. Well, fighting in a narrow hallway isn't his forte.

"Great!"

"Zero! Chase him!"

Returning by teleport, Zero chases the vampire. Although he still looks half-in-work, but he can slightly inhibit the movement of Ozax.

"He vampire, when are you running?" Ask Zero.

He suddenly appeared next to Ozax, launching a sudden dagger slash. The attack injured Ozax's left hand, but he was still running.

The light began to be seen, it seemed like the way out was near. But wait, it's still noon outside. Doesn't that mean Ozax, who's none other than a vampire, can't go anywhere? In the sun, it will instantly scorch and die.

"Hey hey! Are you planning to commit suicide?!"

"Who said that?!"

Ozax suddenly attacks Zero who is chasing behind him. The impromptu attack had made Zero startled and slightly retreated. At that time, Ozax used a hoodie that covered his entire head.

He quickly darted out of the passageway, walking in the sunlight without the slightest hitch. It seemed, Hoodie and her long robe were protecting her body from the sunlight. In this case, he could have escaped easily!

"Zero, stop him!" My yelling.

"I know it! So stop telling me!!"

Zero used a teleport and appeared right in front of him. With his magic skill, Air Walk, Zero can freely move through the air as if having an invisible footing. He attacked Ozax with unexpected speed. Slowly, he made Ozax's clothes torn. In addition, he was also able to dodge the Ozax resistance attacks perfectly.

"Stop away!!"

Ozax shouted loudly, with an explosion of aura emerging from his body. The blast wave sent Zero crashing and a little dizzy

Suddenly, a fire arrow appeared from above the building. The fire arrow hit Ozax's body, and pierced his body. The fire from the attack also burned down Ozax's clothes. Dead from the attack or the sun, we can't guess. To be sure, Ozax Mathel was killed before our eyes. Leaving Death Wand lying on the ground.

"Good work, Magic Knight. You've fought so well."

A woman's voice sounded from above the building. As we looked up, a green-haired woman in a ReVoid uniform stood looking at us. An arrow from the burning fire he held without the slightest heat. Apparently, it was not a physical weapon, but rather a magic.

"You ... Who?"

The woman came down from the top of the building, approaching us filled with questions. If you look around, his uniform is not like ordinary ReVoid members.

"Thus ... This is the artifact we're talking about?" He asked as he looked at Death Wand that Guts had picked up from the ground.

"In that case, I will destroy the cursed thing right now" he said.

"Just be free, you'd better stop that" Zero said. "If this thing could be destroyed that easily, what would it be sealed for hundreds of years?"

Zero's words were right. Sealing this thing won't stop the vampires. It would be better if this was destroyed. But the heroes didn't destroy it. That means there's a reason why they did it. And the logical reason is, they can't destroy it.

Hearing Zero's words, the woman undoes her intention to destroy Death Wand and obeys Zero's words.

"And so, who are you? Just appeared willing to do anything," asked Zero.

The woman looked at Zero expressionlessly. She had a pretty face, but it was cold. And also very flat.

"My name is Hallen Von Nachetanya. Reign of Fire" he replied. "And also vice-chairman of ReVoid."

Hallen Von Nachetanya, Reign lord of fire. That means he is a fire magic user. Uh, wait a minute. If I'm not mistaken Zoe ever said her name when I asked about the person who can use magic in ReVoid. So it's the guy?

"Yes I don't care if you're vice-chairman or anything. But can you not rush into a decision like that?" Zero asked. "if you suddenly deploy your fire magic to Death Wand, something unexpected could happen and we're in trouble because of you. don't you think about it? Good thing I stopped you before something bad happened."

"It's none of my business, and you don't have to think about it either because it didn't happen."

"H-huh?! Hey are you serious?! Are you really that vice-chairman with your cuckoo nature?!"

"It's none of your business."

"Well?!"

Just showed up and this woman gave us a bad impression.I hope her job isn't as bad as the impression she had. But even so, I never thought a vice-chairman could be like this. Is he really able to lead a unit by that nature? And also, he did not think long and looked like he always did everything as he pleased. Not far from the arbitrary nature of Zero, but he is a vice chairman. The half fate of ReVoid was in his hands, and he behaved as he pleased like this?

"Well, even so we are quite grateful for your help coming on time" Guts said.

"I'm not helping you. I'm just doing the job I've been given" he replied flatly.

"You're upset, too ...." Grunts Zero.

After we finished taking care of the outside, we went back into the basement to pick up Elie and the old man. But when we arrived, we were late. The old grandfather had lost a lot of blood, and he was unable to endure the pain in his hands due to his old age. In the midst of the rescue efforts given by Elie, he died in pain. There, I can see Elie's desperate face, seeing someone die from her incompetence.

"Sorry ... Sorry ... I can't save her ...." Elie. He looks very lethargic and sad.

"It's okay Elie. You've been fighting," I said, wiping Elie's head still sitting on the old man's side.

"But still ... I couldn't save her. If only I had been better at medicinal magic, this man's life would have been saved ...." Her speech.

"If you continue this will be endless," Zero cut. Seriously, this girl can't see the atmosphere. "Look at this Elie, not everyone can do what he wants to do. Most people can't do what they want to do. You wanted to save her, but you couldn't do it. That's natural, because you're human. Remember, whoever it is, humans will die. Sooner or later ... Therefore don't collapse just because of this one mistake."

Unlike usual, it turns out that Zero can speak wisely like that.

Moreover, this was the first time Zero had called Elie by her name.

"This blonde's words are true. Don't give up just because you can't ...." And no matter when, Hallen followed to calm Elie.

Hearing that, Elie calmed down a little.

"I don't think you're wise enough than you look" Hallen told Zero.

"You want to make a noise, huh?!"

Elie who had calmed down a little finally stood up straight. He turned around and faced Zero and also Hallen.

"Sorry, thank you for calming me Zero. And also ...." Elie stared at Hallen tightly. "You who?"

I thought he would ask that.

Hallen reintroduced himself to Elie. And of course, Elie was a little surprised to learn that Hallen was the vice-chairman of ReVoid.

"You should return soon and bring Death Wand to the base. We'll have an impromptu meeting. Tell that to your friends, too." Now, he's starting to act like the vice-chairman he should.

"Friends?"

"Of course your comrades, the Magic Knights."
