Capítulo 799: -788- [ Anti-Magic Barrier ]
"Whoo!"
In the high sky, the raging wind howled, bringing bone-chilling cold that seemed to penetrate the marrow, extremely icy. In such high altitudes, humans couldn't function normally.
Low temperatures would steal away their body heat.
Oxygen deficiency could become their deadly cause.
Combined with the howling winds and the different air pressure from the ground, ordinary people would undoubtedly endure extremely harsh conditions here. How could they function normally?
However, at this very moment, above the suspended warship in the clouds, a young man appeared.
The howling cold wind didn't take away his body temperature; it only made his coat rustle, sprinkling countless sparkling fire powders, as if a god descending from the sky, incredibly awe-inspiring.
Rozen, relying on the protection of Kinu, resisted the external influences. Even in such high altitudes, he remained composed, solving the issue of oxygen deficiency with magic. He could freely soar through the sky, even leaving the atmosphere and venturing into space without any problem.
Such Rozen only gazed at the warship ahead, displaying a provocative smile.
That smile seemed to provoke the other side, causing the land battleship named Daedalus to suddenly move.
"Crack..."
The main cannon on the warship turned completely, aiming towards the disturbance in front.
The main cannon of Daedalus protruded from the ship, targeting Rozen.
"Boom!"
In the next second, under the firing sound of the cannon, the fierce artillery barrage, like a rushing flame, blasted towards Rozen's location.
"Bang!"
In the explosion, the shell hit Rozen's location, creating a burst of flames and a wave of fire, like a magnificent fireworks display in the high sky.
Unfortunately...
"Is this the only resistance you can muster right now?"
In the midst of the explosion, a voice slowly sounded.
"It's a bit disappointing."
Rozen casually said these words, and his figure, draped in a coat, slowly appeared in the waves of fire, completely unharmed.
"Order."
Rozen threw out a talisman in his hand, making it shine in the high sky.
Then, countless flames turned into projectiles, like a pouring rain of fire, each one bombarding the direction where Daedalus was located.
"Hum..."
The space around Daedalus instantly distorted, making the fiery projectiles, like hitting empty space, all pass through Daedalus's hull and rush towards the rear of the warship.
Seeing this scene, Rozen showed no surprise but instead confirmed once again.
"Daedalus is equipped with spatial magic circuits," he noted.
Though different from Magnus's Kamakiri, which is a spatial transfer type circuit, Daedalus's circuit is distortion-based. However, both are grand magics of the spatial type, that's beyond doubt.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom...!"
Leveraging the distortion of space, Daedalus completely disregarded external attacks, continuously firing its main cannon, making the artillery fierce like fire, constantly bombarding Rozen's direction.
In response, Rozen simply released several Fire talisman, liberating the jutsuryoku on them once again. They turned into countless blocks of flaming masses, heading towards the incoming artillery.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang...!"
For a moment, in the high sky, the collision of artillery and artillery created explosions and shocks, scattering scorching waves of fire. The surrounding clouds were completely blown away, leaving nothing behind.
Rozen, single-handedly opposing a warship, engaged in such a fierce battle in the high sky, astonishing everyone who observed the situation through various means.
But for Rozen, this was just an appetizer.
Since advancing into the realm of "Mind's Eye," Rozen had made significant improvements and refinements to various spells. He gained higher control and usage, even raising his ability to create talismans to an astonishing level. He even improved healing talismans, developing blood-boosting talismans. It's easy to imagine the high level of talismans he could create now.
If this were in the world of Tokyo Ravens, Rozen's talisman crafting skill alone would surpass all technical personnel. Just selling talismans would make him rich.
Therefore, for the current Rozen, just one Fire talisman could rival a professional exorcist specializing in the "Fire Realm Incantation."
Now, Rozen, as if throwing them away, turned these talismans into countless fire projectiles, bombarding the front.
In this situation, no one noticed that among the countless Fire talisman, there were quite a few protective talismans.
These talismans swept through the high sky, like deploying troops, one by one stopping around Daedalus, surrounding it.
"Clang!"
At a certain moment, these protective talismans all burst into bright light, turning into a barrier, covering Daedalus inside.
"————————."
Rozen formed hand seals, chanting the mantra of Ucchusma, capable of purifying tangible impurities.
Under the influence of this mantra, the barrier enveloping Daedalus was strengthened.
And not just strengthened.
Under such extreme reinforcement, something unbelievable happened.
"————"
The originally fluctuating space around Daedalus suddenly stagnated, without any distortion, returning to its original state.
Rozen had reinforced the barrier to the limit, completely stabilizing the space in the sealed area.
This wasn't something difficult to achieve.
"Originally, what we call a barrier possesses various effects."
Some barriers can stabilize spiritual veins.
Some barriers can defend against external enemies.
Some barriers can resist curses.
Some barriers can disperse crowds.
The barrier Rozen is currently using has the effect of enforcing spiritual energy. By strengthening it to the limit, even the most chaotic spiritual energy would return to a calm state.
Naturally, as mysteries of the same origin, under the influence of magic and spells in such a barrier, they would be suppressed, unable to cause any disturbance.
In other words...
"The development of this 'Anti-Magic Barrier' finally proved its worth."
Rozen smiled suddenly.
Immediately, Rozen's coat fluttered, propelling him at an astonishing speed toward Daedalus.
An entrance to the barrier sealing Daedalus opened, allowing Rozen to smoothly enter.
In this way, Rozen landed smoothly on the deck of Daedalus, boarding this land-based warship that couldn't be interfered with by external forces.
Just in that instant...
"Impressive."
A voice, seemingly helpless yet admiring, echoed.
"To be able to board Daedalus with your own power, no wonder Edward Rutherford regards you highly."
As the voice fell, a figure slowly appeared on the bridge.
It was Edmund.
Capítulo 800: -789- Chose the wrong approach?
Upon the spacious deck, Rozen and Edmund once again faced each other once again.
Rozen observed the Crown Prince, who openly appeared before him, raising an eyebrow slightly.
Edmund wore a smile on his face, displaying neither fear nor concern. His demeanor remained arrogant, yet his gaze remained fixed on Rozen, conveying that he didn't underestimate Rozen's arrival.
"Quite unexpected," Rozen remarked as he assessed the Black Prince before him, "I never thought you'd dare to show up in front of me so openly."
Considering Rozen had previously inflicted severe injuries on Edmund and now thwarted his automaton army, standing on Daedalus's deck in front of him shattered layers of Edmund's pride and assurance, leaving him with no support.
Now, this audacious Crown Prince dared to appear in front of Rozen once again. Did he believe Rozen wouldn't harm him or even kill him?
Edmund seemed to be aware of what Rozen was thinking.
"Just like before, you speak without restraint. If it weren't for rebellion, I could charge you with disrespect to the Great British Empire just for that."
Edmund spoke while maintaining a smile that never faded.
Rozen, on the other hand, found the situation rather amusing.
"So, you do have some self-awareness, knowing that you've rebelled and can no longer rely on the protection of the Great British Empire, huh?"
Rozen mocked.
Edmund, seemingly unfazed, responded, "Whether or not the Empire is currently mine, it will be eventually. I don't need the Empire's protection. It should be an honor for the Empire to join me."
Edmund sneered.
However...
"I never expected that there would be someone like you in this world, truly terrifying."
Edmund spoke with genuine interest.
"Are the creatures you summoned the Shikigami of the Far East? You seem to be using ancient magic before the advent of Machinart, right?"
It appeared that Edmund believed Rozen's Summoning Arts to be the Eastern Onmyoudou.
"Summoning such a large army effortlessly, challenging nations single-handedly – even I have to admire such power force."
Edmund extended a hand towards Rozen.
"How about it? Want to join me? That power, designed for war, could be put to good use for my conquest. With Eva sealing all the automatons, and your legion, conquering nations would be a walk in the park. You should let that power contribute to my dominion."
This Crown Prince once again extended an hand to Rozen.
This selfish and arrogant proposition was accompanied by genuine eagerness and desire in Edmund's words.
However...
"If I remember correctly, you mentioned at the square that having me around would make you feel unpleasant, didn't you?"
Rozen's gaze at Edmund became ironic.
Edmund, oblivious to this, replied casually, "No matter. Even I occasionally make mistakes. Now, I find you to be a rather pleasant person. With you and Eva, there won't be any enemies left in this world. It's the favor bestowed upon me by the gods, and ignoring it would be a crime against fate."
"Is that so?" Rozen's expression suddenly turned indifferent. He said in a detached manner, "Haven't you considered that because of you, the people of Machinart City are being persecuted? That's the real crime that deserves divine punishment."
"The people?" Edmund's eyebrows raised, followed by a mocking smile. "If persecuting commoners brings divine punishment, then kings of this world would have perished long ago."
The implication was...
"The only purpose of commoners is to contribute meager efforts to the king's dominance," Edmund said. "The people who cannot become my power can only be drowned by their own weakness. That's the harsh reality of this world."
Silence fell after his words.
Rozen remained silent, glaring coldly at Edmund.
Facing Rozen's gaze, Edmund appeared unfazed.
"It's a good barrier that seals magic and spells," Edmund commented, surveying the barrier around Daedalus. "However, it seems to affect everyone within, friend or foe. No magic or spells can be used in this space, right?"
Indeed, within the "Anti-Magic Barrier," neither the caster nor the target could use magic. All magical properties were suppressed, preventing magic from being released or spells from taking effect.
"If Daedalus's flight relied on magical constructs and functions, it would have fallen due to magic circuits ceasing to operate, wouldn't it?" Edmund grinned.
"How do you plan to defeat me when placed in such an environment?"
After all, not even Rozen himself is exempt within this barrier.
If it were a power acting directly on Rozen, it would have been nullified or immunized by Gyokuto long ago.
However, this 'Anti-Magic Barrier' targets the entire space. Even if Rozen himself is unaffected by the 'Anti-Magic Barrier,' magic cannot be released externally, rendering spells ineffective, and leaving one in a state unable to utilize their powers.
Not to mention...
"Summoning such a massive army must have drained your magic tremendously. Once magic is depleted, even your strength becomes useless."
This, too, Edmund accurately predicted.
Although Rozen can now summon armies of monsters numbering in the tens of thousands, rivaling the strength of a nation, even with his "Mind's Eye" reaching the divine realm, summoning such a massive army rapidly depletes Rozen's magic power.
Therefore, despite Rozen being able to unleash large-scale magic with minimal magic power and absorbing external magic for his own use, he cannot withstand the consumption caused by the tens of thousands of troops. His magical energy is rapidly diminishing.
If this had happened before Rozen's "Mind's Eye" entered the divine realm, he wouldn't have been able to last even a minute.
Now, Rozen can only sustain the army for less than half an hour, unable to maintain it indefinitely.
In this situation, Rozen's ability to focus on controlling tens of thousands of troops is already an astonishing feat. If he were to personally engage in combat, the consumption of energy and magic would be even more formidable.
"It's because of this that you created this barrier, unwilling to use magic to determine the outcome," analyzed Edmund.
"I guess you must possess some martial arts skills, intending to overpower me with that?" Edmund made such a speculation.
"Unfortunately, you chose the wrong approach."
When Edmund spoke these words, a figure suddenly appeared behind Rozen.
"Ooooooh...!"
In a deep roar, Glendan unsheathed his sword and swung it heavily towards Rozen's head.
