SPELLCRAFT: Reincarnation Of A Magic Scholar

“After eons of waiting on the other side of Origin, I have come once more.” The Nether declared.

His words made no sense to me, and I turned to Kazen for an explanation. However, she was so preoccupied with her thoughts and her nervousness that it didn’t seem like I would be getting answers from her.

“Once I devour the Root of this world… I shall finally be whole.”

The root? Did he mean this planet’s core? I had many questions, but I kept silent and observed the whole thing. My mind was constantly working to see if I could find any opportunity to exploit. So far, though, I found nothing.

It was frustrating, to say the least. Frightening too.

‘I don’t know how, but I have to stop this thing! Damnit! What should I do?!’

All my allies were already stirring from their trance. They would be waking up any time from now, but so what? None of them could stand a chance against that thing.𝓞𝑽𝗅xt.𝓒𝒐𝓂

Even if we attacked together, we would not even be able to make a dent in such an entity. Even Neron… I doubted if his Magic would be effective on such an entity.

“This power… is far above Transcendent Grade.” I gulped.

“That’s right. It’s in the Primordial Realm. The highest, most unreachable point. It belongs only to beings like the Nether and entities beyond our understanding…” Kazen responded to me, beads of sweat falling from her face.

Her face was pale, and it seemed like she was going to pass out.

“Kazen, you… are you okay?”

“Not really. My Magic… is reaching its limits. Without my Arcana, I can’t hold on for too long in this body.”

It seemed her possession was only temporary. Normally, I would have been relieved, but this was the worst time.

“Shit! Not now… not now!

Ciel was happy beyond description.

Her pale cheeks were flushed with so much pink that one would think she was down with a fever. Her breathing was also hot and uneven.

Her body screamed with delight as she felt her master’s touch, and she felt like giving her whole being to him.

‘The sting of his touch… hurts so good!’ She moaned as she wished he would caress her more.

However, Ciel understood her master’s desires. Now wasn’t the time to indulge in hers.

After receiving a generous reward from him already, they had to get down to business, and she knew the perfect way to kickstart everything.

“Master, I have something to report to you.”

The Nether’s curious gaze on her nearly made her yelp in ecstasy, but she held it in. She had to control herself. Yes… control.

“A lot of things have delayed your return. You would have arrived much sooner if it hadn’t been for the interference of some people.”

“Oh? They posed a problem even for you?” The Nether’s voice contained surprise and a bit of disappointment.

Once she sensed this, Ciel’s heart nearly dropped, and she realized that she was on the verge of letting her master down. There was no way she could allow such a thing!

“N-no way! Never! None of those fools could stand a chance against me—not even that Apostle of Aether down there!” She boldly declared.

“Hoho, is that so? No wonder I sensed such Aether. That human there… she is one of those mortals that sealed me away then.”

“Yes. She’s possessing the body of a mortal right now, and it seems it won’t be long before she fades away. Do you want to have some fun with her before then?”

The Nether grinned with his darkened face as he stared at Ciel.

“You know me well. Some light exercises should be done before the main event. Anything else you have in mind?”

“Well… that’s what I was about to tell you. The only reason my plans were disrupted a little bit is because of the interference of one individual.”

“Just one?” The Nether’s tone showed disappointment once more.

“A Singularity.”

Once Ciel said this, his disappointment melted and it was replaced by a measure of understanding.

“So, the Root knew I was coming, eh? Well… I suppose I should have expected it. Since that is the case, then I don’t blame you. That Merlin, back then, he too was very formidable.”

“Not as powerful as you, master. Not even close. If it hadn’t been for the incomplete vessel, there was no way you would have fallen.” Ciel argued passionately, her eyes gleaming brightly at her master.

“You think I am unaware? And whose fault was that?” His voice suddenly took a deep plunge into deeper, darker waters.

Even Ciel experienced the chills of the Nether’s powerful presence. She felt fear unlike any other, and her body buzzed with its corrupting power.

“A-anng… it was mine, master. Please punish me for that!”

Yes! She loved this sensation the most. Feeling her master’s dominating aura wash over her… Ciel was in bliss.

“W-well… maybe some other time.” Her bliss was enough to startle even the very personification of evil.

As much as he fancied her, even the Nether had to admit that she was strange.

“In any case, show me this Singularity. I should at least thank him for serving as a delay to our plans.” The Nether was successfully able to change the topic, as he excitedly looked for his prey.

“Ah, I’ve seen him. That’s strange. Why can’t I see through his soul completely? Something is blocking my sight.”

Ciel was surprised to hear this. Her master, Nether, was nigh omnipotent. In the Primordial Realm, he was already above several concepts, and his power was beyond anyone’s understanding. What could possibly be enough to impede his all-seeing sight?

“C-could it be that Aether is—?”

“Oh? Hahaha! I see now. So that is what happened. No wonder the memories are overlapping. So, he actually did it. That bastard…” The Nether was already mumbling words that were strange to Ciel’s ears, but she couldn’t dare interrupt her master.

“Then, is this your plan? Well, since you aren’t here to see it through to the end… I might as well end this boy.” His rotten smile inspired Ciel, and she was happy to witness the manifestation of her master’s power.

Finally, all who had defied him would see his glory.

“I’ll eradicate this Jared Leonard. It should prove to be a good gift for you, my bride. He’s put you through a lot, hasn’t he?”

“Yes. Indeed, master!” Ciel was overcome with joy that her master would seek to reward someone as unworthy as her.

“Then, let’s get started.”
