Chapter 140: Close your eyes

The black bulls were busy replenishing their mana using Charmy's food. They had a fierce battle just a few moments ago and most of them felt pretty depleted. Even Asta who doesn't possess magic was tired since he used his black form to the limits. His body was currently in pain and had some injuries all over his body.

Mimosa and Kirsch joined the black bulls and we're busy with their replenishing their mana as well.

Mimosa wanted to run up to Sekke and check up on him but other Black Bull members were visibly more injured and decided to heal all of them first.

While this was happening Sekke was quite far away from his squad. None of them went closer to him since Sekke was standing motionlessly and thought that he was still contemplating the loss of the elf kid that possessed Marie's body.

Soon they noticed movement in Sekke's body and noticed him walking toward them.

Sekke soon stood in front of the squad and looked toward Vanessa.

"Can I borrow Rogue for a while?" asked Sekke.

"Hm? Sure, but why?" asked Vanessa back as Rogue manifested above her and jumped on top of Sekke's head.

"I made a promise to Eclat...gonna fulfill that real quick...On that note. All of you please give me a cover from enemy attacks."

"Alright, but what is going on? What are you going to do?" asked Asta.

"Something awesome....and probably dangerous," replied Sekke as a large number of absorption lines appeared out of his body.

<Forced Drain>

The absorption lines started to glow and grew in size before all of them shot out in different directions.

All the magic knights that were near him stood up and looked at Sekke with shock.

"Sekke! What is happening? What are you planning to do?!" asked Vanessa.

"Nothing much, just saving the kingdom I guess...oh yeah I cannot move from this spot while I am using <Forced Drain> so don't move me from this spot, just keep me safe...or not. I don't think one or two attacks would matter much anyway," said Sekke not thinking much.

They were about to say something more but before they could say anything the <Forced Drain> started working and a huge amount of mana rushed into Sekke's body.

"AH! Really hurts like hell!"

"It's called Forced for a reason....anyway, 30s till your pool is full....wait, it's 20s. Seriously? Adapting even to this? What the hell are you?" asked Vritra as he questioned the existence of his host.

'Just built simply different.' replied Sekke.

Soon the 20s passed and just as Vritra told, his mana reserves were full.

[Bronze Creation Magic: Safe of Eternity]

A transparent display appeared over Sekke's wrist and Sekke started fiddling with it. Soon a device manifested in front of Sekke and Sekke held it with a serious look on his face.

"If I remember correctly it's this button," muttered Sekke as he examined the device.

"Sekke? What's going on? What is that?" asked Asta.

"It's a device that was given to me by the Wizard King before we started the raid. It's an announcement device to make announcements throughout the kingdom," replied Sekke.

"Announcement? What are you going to inform?" asked Noelle.

"To not panic about the thing that is about to happen next," replied Sekke with a smirk as he pressed the button.

The device made a noise and soon started floating.

Sekke blinked in surprise as he looked at the magic device thinking that it was kind of a drone.

The magic device drone then took some distance from Sekke and a light came out of it and scanned Sekke's body.

Suddenly Sekke and the others noticed a large mana display appear over the capital big enough to be seen from anywhere in the capital. In the display was the image of Sekke looking up with a confused look on his face.

"... It's live broadcast?" asked Sekke as he stared at the drone.

Unknown to Sekke and those around him, similar mana displays were up in the skies of all the cities, towns, and villages of the Clover Kingdom.

Even remote regions like Have we're getting this live broadcast.

-------------------

In a particular part of the kingdom, more specifically, the border town of Kiten which was Sekke's hometown, the situation was no different from the rest of the kingdom.

Some of the magic knights and citizens transformed into reincarnated elves and we're wreaking havoc on the town.

Those who could fight were fighting and protecting the town and people, but they were not much successful.

A lot of injured people were lying around the town which was mostly destroyed. Huge buildings, like the church and hospital, were the first that were attacked by the elves.

The remaining magic knights were fighting with all their might to save the town and the citizens but the elves were overpowering them with ease.

Suddenly, a bright light appeared in the sky which made both the citizens and the elves alike look up.

"What's that?"

"An announcement? From the capital I pres- Is that Sekke?"

"Huh? Sekke-kun?"

"It's true. Sekke-kun is in the announcement."

"What is he doing?"

"Se-chan?"

"Bah-ha Sekke?!"

[It's a live broadcast....well, whatever. I am hoping that everyone in the kingdom is seeing this...Alright...Ahem!]

The Sekke inside the magic display spoke those words and finally cleared his throat.

[Citizens of the Clover Kingdom, I am Sekke Bronzaza of the Back Bulls. The Dark Lord if you know me by that title. Anyway, you all might or might not know depending if your place is being attacked or not. Our kingdom is under attack by elves. You might recognize them as people with golden aura thingy and pointed ears. They hate humans to the bone. I will be dealing with all of them in one full sweep, so don't panic if you see a bright light blind your vision. Close your eyes to protect your eyes and be safe. Also once they are subdued don't kill the elves we are also on a mission to bring our friends back since their bodies are simply taken over by the elves. Thank you.]

After giving his message Sekke stopped speaking as the citizens and elves from all over the kingdom just blinked their eyes.

"...Honey, has our son finally lost it bah-ha?"

"Don't doubt him. Or as Se-chan says, "So you are questioning the might of the Dark Lord?"."

"Bah-ha! But did you even hear-"

Before Zuk could finish what he was saying, Sekke's figure inside the magic display moved.

--------------------

'Leaving the mana gathering to you Vritra.'

"On it my other half."

"Phew. Let's do this."

[Bronze Magic: Bronze Body-Logia]

A metallic sheen appeared around Sekke's body but soon his body colour turned back to normal.

"Rouge, you are on," said Sekke as he glanced at the red cat sitting on top of his head.

"Nyaa~" replied Rouge as she patted Sekke's head with her paws.

Sekke has a nod as the mana inside his body came out in a burst, sending all the nearby rubble flying.

The black bulls along with Mimosa and Kirsch who were near him immediately used their magic to not get blown away by Sekke's mana pressure and all of them had a shocked expressions on their faces.

"This much mana?" muttered Noelle

"So....beautiful..." said Kirsch in admiration

"Oi oi oi! Is this for real? He has more mana than all these royals combined. How does that make any sense?" said Zora.

"I cannot feel the mana...BUT SEEKE IS AWESOME!!" said Asta.

All of them agreed with Asta on that. They didn't know what the self-proclaimed Dark Lord was planning, but they knew for better that he means it when he said that he was going to save the whole kingdom.

"Alright, people here it comes. Close your eyes," warned Sekke as an excited smirk appeared on his face.

[Mana Zone: Bronze Age]

A large amount of mana filled the atmosphere of the Clover Kingdom.

The whole kingdom felt the wave of mana descend upon them and unconsciously all of them followed Sekke's warning to close their eyes.

A bright light filled the whole Clover Kingdom and the moment it did Sekke's mind overloaded with all the mana that he was able to control and feel.

'Shit, this is overwhelming.'

[Memory Magic: Parallel Thinking]

The situation eased up a bit but still, the amount of mana readings that he was getting from all over the kingdom was too much for him.

"Hurry up my other half. Ten seconds till your mana drains."

'More than enough.'

Sekke closed his eyes as he concentrated solely on mana detection. He pinpointed all the elves around the kingdom. And a moment later his eyes opened revealing a bluish glow in them.

'There, done...'

"...with 2 seconds to spare...great job."

The mana zone disappeared as the two seconds passed up and Sekke's body immediately lost all his strength and he fell on his knees.

"...I hope it worked...." said Sekke before drowsiness took over him and Sekke fell unconscious.

Since the live broadcast was still going on the citizens from all over the kingdom heard his words, and opened their eyes.

Most of them didn't notice the change, but the smart ones and the ones who were in the middle of the fight or those who were witnessing the fight from afar immediately widened their eyes in shock.

The elves that all of them were struggling against were now just immovable bronze statues.

Soon the others started to realize what was going on since the sounds of attacks stopped. The citizens started to ask around what happened and the magic knights relayed the information to calm the citizens down.

Once they came to know that, their gaze fell on the magic display that showed the figure of Sekke who was fallen on his knees after performing the grand spell with a satisfied smirk on his face.

"Sekke Bronzaza....the Dark Lord..." muttered one of the kids in Kiten as his eyes twinkled in admiration.

"...BAH-HA!! THAT'S THE MAN THAT I RAISED!! SEKKE BRONZAZA!!!" yelled Zuk in excitement.

"Calm down and help the others!!" said Elaine as she tried to calm down her husband but none of her words fell on Zuk's ears, he was too excited for his son.

Elaine just smiled helplessly at her husband's antics before her gaze fell on her son that was visible on the display.

"Great job Se-chan....or should I say as expected of the great Dark Lord. Haha" muttered Elaine as she chuckled with some tears of happiness in her eyes.
