The Dark Magician Transmigrates After 66666 Years-Chapter 433: Reawaken (3)
Isis was pushed back by the growing darkness, little by little.
“Kuk… This damned guy. Why does he have to be so strong?”
“If we are a little late, we will be swallowed.”
So was Ricky.
Even with the two of them working together, it was the best they could do to prevent the darkness from spreading further.
If this amount of power exploded, it would be impossible to guess how the aftermath would be if they went on a full-on fight.
What was certain was that it was difficult for them to handle it with just the two of them.
“Will Sarah be fine?”
“I hope she is.”
“My disciple is having a hard time because her brother took the wrong path.”
Sarah, who went directly into the darkness, still couldn’t be seen until now.
They wanted her to be unharmed, but that was unlikely.
She was indignant at the fact that there was nothing she could do except hold the darkness so it wouldn’t grow further.
“Let’s trust her. Holding this back is the only thing we can do.”
At Ricky’s words, Isis gritted her teeth and responded,
“If something happens to Sarah, I will kill him.”
Ricky didn’t respond to her, but he felt the same way.
If Jamie had really become insensitive enough to kill his little sister, then he had to be killed. That was the limit for Ricky. He couldn’t see his precious friend taking the wrong path.
So, by all means, he wanted Sarah to succeed.
It was then…
“I can feel the power from inside.”
“Something is coming.”
The darkness stopped expanding, and they could feel something new from inside. The two of them focused on what it was.
The darkness began to shrink, and when there was no need to push it anymore, the two slowly moved to the center, both holding their weapons and following the darkness.
Beiros, who had been watching until now, also looked interested.
“What is that?”
That alien energy that he was feeling from the center. Something was odd.
‘Why isn’t it magi?’
The darkness that came out was based on magi, but it was also black mana. However, the one in the center wasn’t magi.
Since he was a demon, there was no way he wouldn’t know it.
Did something change inside?
Beiros removed his back, which had been leaning against the wall, and moved to the window to avoid being swept away by an unexpected power.
‘Considering the condition of Master, he might even attack me.’
If he continued to look around here and there, he might end up being hit by the unexpected explosion.
And he was sure of it.
With one foot on the window, Beiros was ready to jump out, and the darkness, which was pulling back, was slowly moving away like it was being sucked in at once.
A dazzling light shone.
Beiros, Isis, and Ricky reacted to the light that came at them, but it was impossible to avoid a light that spread everywhere at an impossible speed. They hurriedly protected themselves with their own energies, but it didn’t take long for them to realize that it wasn’t dangerous.
“This power….”
Isis felt it slowly, as if she were enjoying the light around her body.
It was a familiar feeling.
It was the power that she hadn’t felt over the last three years, but this was definitely the Fiat Lux that Jamie Welton used.
That means…
“Sarah!”
Isis called for her disciple, and Ricky also realized that the light was Jamie’s skill and looked straight ahead with excitement.
The light broke everywhere like it was snow, and there was a man and a girl holding hands in the center. His black hair was the same, but his smile was gentle, unlike his cold face.
“D-Diablo?”
Isis cautiously called out to the black-haired man.
Something changed, but she wasn’t sure what it was.
If that expression was fake, then the situation was still dangerous. At that call, the man looked at Isis and laughed.
“You don’t have to call me by that name anymore.”
Hearing that, Ricky asked in a trembling voice,
“Jamie… Welton?”
“It has been so long.”
When Jamie slightly raised his hand in greeting, Ricky had to double-check because it was hard for him to believe it.
“Y-You are Jamie? Really?”
“For real?”
It was the same with Isis, but she couldn’t let her guard down.
At that time, Sarah, who was holding Jamie’s hand, moved closer.
“Teacher, Brother Ricky. Brother Jamie is back.”
Only after she confirmed that he was the real Jamie did they no longer doubt him. And only then did they realize that Jamie had returned.
“… This brat.”
Ricky clenched his fists and ran to Jamie. Jamie rubbed his nose when he saw his friend running.
“Brat. You seem to have missed me a lot?”
“I-I don’t think so.”
Sarah took a step aside, and Ricky, who arrived in front of Jamie, struck Jamie with his clenched fist.
“You bastard!”
“Kuak—”
Was that an illusion, or did a bone really break?
Jamie’s head turned to the side, and he staggered to the ground.
It wasn’t just his energy. It was the power of Pyro that he had, and Ricky punched him with such a powerful punch.
It didn’t end there.
“Do you know how many people have suffered because of you?”
Before Jamie could even regain his senses, Ricky grabbed him by the collar and shook him.
“Do you know how many people felt sad?”
“N-No, wait. I want to see Father.”
“Shut up, brat! You need to get hit more!”
Ricky tried to beat him more, but he managed to calm down with the help of Isis and Sarah.
Beiros, who watched this scene, shrugged.
“Somehow, I don’t think I should be here.”
He didn’t like this kind of atmosphere, and it seemed like it would be nice to give them some time alone, so Beiros left.
He could talk about it with them later, so he could hear more about what happened.
“So, what happened?”
“Take this off! That guy should get hit more… Euppp!”
Isis bound Ricky with the ropes of the War God and gagged him. The rope was so hard that it couldn’t be untied by anyone once it was used.
She continued to gag him and would do so until he calmed down.
Jamie spoke while rubbing his hand over the spot where Ricky hit him.
“It is too long to explain in detail, but to sum it all up, I opened my eyes thanks to my little sister, and I can say that I had taken over my body again.”
“You were able to claim your body again?”
“Huh. You can think of Diablo as an imaginary person I created, not me.”
“Why did you make that?”
Isis couldn’t understand it. There was no reason to have a virtual personality, especially one that was violent and hid his true identity.
Jamie scratched his cheek with an embarrassed look.
“I ran away, well….”
Even if they didn’t talk long, Isis could understand what Jamie was trying to say. He was referring to the death of his father, Count Welton, three years ago.
“You think it was because of you?”
“It isn’t about what I think. It is because of me.”
“Brother!”
Sarah, thinking that Jamie was repeating what he said when he was in a state of a broken mind, hurriedly called out to him.
She was afraid the same would happen again, but Jamie shook his head at her.
“Do not worry. I am just accepting what happened.”
“It isn’t because of Brother.”
“Sarah. What I overcame was the feeling of abandoning the world because of my guilt. Father lost his life trying to save me. That thought hasn’t changed.”
“But…”
“It isn’t that he died, but it is harder for your brother to accept it. I came back for the rest of the people and for myself. To lead the rest of the war to victory and stand proudly in front of Father.”
Because Jamie said that, Sarah couldn’t say anything more.
When Sarah made a sad face, Jamie stroked her head with a smile and spoke to Isis and Ricky.
“It won’t happen again. Do not worry.”
“Now you feel like the Jamie Welton I know.”
Isis let out a big smile and let her shoulders droop as if she wasn’t on guard anymore.
“Uhhhh! Uppp!”
At that time, the three of them turned to the groaning voice from behind, and it was Ricky wriggling like a worm and screaming through his gagged mouth.
Isis undid the rope, and Ricky shouted.
“You jerk! You should have overcome that with us!”
“S-Sorry.”
“Do you know how worried I was? I thought you went completely mad!”
“I will reflect on it.”
“You jerk! Welcome back!”
Was this anger or happiness?
Jamie wasn’t sure how to react, but for now, he smiled and then got scolded for smiling.
Ricky laughed at Jamie, who was embarrassed, and said,
“I am glad you woke up again. I really am.”
“Right.”
Jamie also looked at his friend and smiled. Then he got cursed at again.
“Ricky went mad. Am I the only one who felt it?”
“I also hadn’t seen Brother Ricky for a long time, so I don’t know. But in the past, he always had this smiling image, but when I saw him earlier, I was a little scared.”
“Right? He was a na?ve country boy, so why did he change like that?”
“Because of Brother?”
“It could be so.”
Jamie and Sarah were talking about random stuff while looking out the window. The gloomy sky and the cold wind made his heart tickle for some reason.
The siblings were enjoying their free time after a long time.
“So Sarah. What happened? When did you turn into a Master, and what happened with Gaia?”
Jamie asked what he was curious about.
What the hell happened in the last three years for his cute little sister to have grown up like this?
As an older brother, he couldn’t help but wonder.
“Hmm. It is rather long, so to speak.”
“I have a lot of time, and the way is long too. Which is why they left us all alone.”
Isis and Ricky left them alone, letting them spend some quality time together.
Originally, he had to summon the officers of the Black Tower and inform them that the current situation had changed. However, he didn’t think it would be a problem if he was a couple of hours late, so he decided to leave the work to the two of them.
“In the beginning….”
Sarah began to tell Jamie what the past three years had been like.
In the wide space made of gold, there was just one chair that looked similar to a throne. And there sat a man whose entire body was burning with the flames of the sun.
“It turned out to be interesting.”
The Sun God said as he rested his chin on his hand.
“I thought he would never wake up.”
He couldn’t see everything because Diablo constantly checked on him, but he could feel the change in Jamie Welton’s body.
After abandoning his emotions, especially his anger, and hatred, Diablo gained power that surprised him.
So he didn’t think Jamie Welton would surpass him, but his body was unexpected.
Which was why it was fun.
“I’m glad it didn’t end like nothing.”
Had he been in Diablo’s state, he would have never matched with him.
With that much power, it would be tough for him to reach his goal.
But Jamie Welton was back.
He couldn’t hold back his smile.
“Kukukuk That is all Jamie Welton. It has to be you.”
The fight that was supposedly boring began to turn interesting again.
“But not yet.”
With his present power, Jamie was a long way off.
“Gaia, you should cheer yourself up too.”
He could feel that there was an Apostle of Gaia next to Jamie.
Because of the defense of the Black Tower, he couldn’t attack them right now, but when the war began in earnest, things would fall into his hands.
But before that…
“That side should make their move too.”
Clack.
A man in dark-colored full body armor stood in front of Ra. The helmet that covered his face had holes for his eyes that were glowing red.
“If it is you, you won’t make the same mistake as Gluttony. Go.”
The dark-colored armor warrior bowed his head.
Even though no words were said or orders were given, the person knew what Ra was asking from him.
And so the warrior turned and left the palace.
Ra mumbled as the warrior walked away.
“Jamie Welton. This is my return gift for you, who have come back after a long time.”
His black lips curled into a smile.
