Chapter 74
My Reflector Is Invincible 74
74. It’s Too Late to Regret It Now
Joo-yeon was surrounded by sorcery.
The Grand Sorcerer’s lips curled up at the sight.
“You fool. No matter how useful your skills are, you can’t block my sorcery.”
He already knew that Joo-yeon had special abilities.
But it was useless to try to deflect it with that ability.
The warlock’s activated spell was nearly infinite. Once targeted, the opponent couldn’t escape until they died.
“Can a Grandmaster really dodge that well? But before my spell, even evasion has absolutely no meaning.”
It was a spell that would pursue you to the ends of the earth. In the end, you had no choice but to face it.
And if you get hit by even one, the next attacks will immediately follow up.
There were hundreds of spells.
What would happen if you were hit by all of them at once?
Any being would die a miserable death.
But that’s when it happened.

“Double Rainbow Reflection!”
At Joo-in’s cry, the warlock’s face twisted.
It was because an incredible sight unfolded before him.
Ting!
The spells had clearly reached Joo-in.
But the spells, which were nearly infinite, were deflected.
That was fine so far.
‘I noticed long ago that the bastard had a special power anyway.’
The spells had been cast with that in mind from the beginning.
But not only were the spells being deflected by Joo-in.
‘It just stopped?’
And they’re all coming this way?
“How the hell? What did you do!?”
There was no time to be surprised.
“Grand Warlock! You’re in danger!”
“The spells are moving towards the Grand Warlock!”
The spells were flying like bullets.
The warlocks who had put up a barrier around the stadium raised their hands anxiously.
“Block it! Create a barrier with the spell!”
“絶対にGrand Warlockに近づけないようにしろ!”
In an instant, a protective barrier made of spells appeared.
Of course, the Grand Warlock didn’t just stand there and watch.
Thud!
His staff hit the ground. Then the skeletons began to howl.
Ooooo.
[Earth’s Wall]
[Legacy of the Ancestors]
[Soul Ring]
The earth rose up beside the Grand Warlock.
Ghostly old men with axes in both hands guarded the front.
The souls pouring out of the skeletons formed a ring, blocking access to the surroundings.
The protective spell had been activated.
But it was too early to relax.
Screech!
The spells rushed in as if they would break through the defensive barrier.
In an instant, a huge explosion erupted.
Boom!
It was a deafening roar.
Not only the barrier but also the bodies of the sorcerers who formed the barrier shook.
But soon they raised their hands and cheered.
“We did it!”
“We blocked it!”
The spells that hit the protective barrier were all shattered. However, the Grand Sorcerer’s face was grave.
“You idiots! Look carefully!”
Thud!
The spells had indeed been distorted when they hit the barrier.
However, they were immediately restored to their original state.
The sorcerers couldn’t help but be astonished.
“Oh my god… A spell that recovers on its own!”
“Isn’t that a spell that only a Grand Sorcerer can cast?”
The sorcerers frantically cast defensive spells again.
Boom!
They blocked the spell, repelled it, blocked it again, and it was an endless battle.
The Grand Sorcerer’s face was contorted.
‘How the hell did he do that?’
He used his spell by designating a target.
It was different from general magic that attacked a random location.
He could accurately specify and send it to the target.
It was a weak but deadly spell, like a curse that killed only the targeted person.
Until now, no one had ever properly blocked it.
“But how the hell… Did he send my spell back to me?”
He clearly designated Joo-yeon as the target of the spell.
Even as a Grand Sorcerer, it was impossible to change the target of a spell once it was designated.
But Joo-yeon did it.
Boom!
The spells pouring down on the Grand Sorcerer were proof of that.
In an instant, red blood gushed out of the Grand Sorcerer’s mouth.
Cough…
It was because part of the defensive barrier had finally been broken through by the continuous attacks.
And part of the spell touched his body.
Cough!
Parts of his face, along with his skin, had turned into something resembling a frog.
The Grand Sorcerer noticed the situation right away.
“Frog transformation? Did you really follow my technique?”
However, he didn’t have much time to think.
BOOM!
His vision turned red, and lightning struck down from the sky. The Grand Sorcerer was exposed to all the magic without any time to dodge.
Drip.
Blood flowed out of his nose. Not just his mouth, but blood also flowed out of his ears and eyes.
The more he was exposed to the magic, the worse his body’s condition became. Even the rosary necklace he was holding in his hand fell.
BAM!
The necklace shattered in an instant.
The sorcerers were shocked beyond belief.
“Oh my god……. The necklace of the Grand Sorcerer, Yasata, has been broken…!”
It wasn’t just the Grand Sorcerer.
“Keuk…!”
The magical items on the other sorcerers’ bodies also shattered and fell.
‘Surely it’s not past its limit…!’
That’s why it was even more perplexing.
The limit of the magic defense, which didn’t even flinch at the Dragon’s attack, was reached while fighting just one person?
Was that even possible?
However, there was a bigger problem.
‘I no longer have any magical items to protect my body.’
‘I will definitely lose if I keep fighting like this.’
‘Unless I know the true nature of his power…!’
The Grand Sorcerer couldn’t help but burst out in an angry cry.
“Nenoom! What the hell did you do!”
However, Joo-yeon was only bewildered.
“What did I do? You’re the one who did something.”
“What?”
“The hero who saved the continent, the chieftain who should be respected, what you did to him is even more disgusting.”
The Grand Sorcerer’s eyes shook for a moment.
“You… how much do you know?”
Joo-yeon already knew all the facts.
It was thanks to Karasen’s memories that flowed into him when he faced Karasen.
‘Karasen killed the Demon King and was cursed by him.’
[Demon King’s Curse: Infant Regression]
The Knight King was also cursed by the Demon King, but it was a little different from the <Petrification> he suffered.
It was a curse that only regressed the mind while leaving the body intact.
His body became a large baby-like stick.
‘The strongest barbarian chieftain with the strongest body became a one-year-old baby.’
The problem was the strongest body playing separately from the spirit.
Karacen, who had become a young baby, only had his aggression left and attacked his tribe members.
-Jo… Chief! Why!
-Everyone, stop the chief! Hurry!
In an instant, the precious tribe members who could be considered Karacen’s fingers collapsed.
There were many cases where family members died or became unconscious.
If Karacen was in his right mind, this would never have happened.
Jooyeon looked at the great shaman with contempt.
“You knew how much Karacen’s soul was suffering, but you didn’t help him.”
“What nonsense! I…!”
“You were trying to save him?”
“That’s right! I helped him despite the tribe’s prohibition!”
There was a prohibition among the barbarians that should never be broken.
It was a place only the chief was allowed to enter.
[Ancestral Land]
Those who practiced shamanism should never enter.
That was the law of the barbarians.
Jooyeon, who knew about it, spoke with a cold voice.
“Really? For something like that… It doesn’t seem like what you got there was for Karacen’s healing.”
Gulp!
The great shaman’s body stiffened.
As expected, Jooyeon’s eyes flashed eerily.
“Since when has controlling the chief become a cure?”
“……!”
The great shaman’s pupils shook.
As Jooyeon said, what the great shaman had obtained from the forbidden place was not healing magic.
It was the shamanism of ‘taboo’.
It was a ritual to awaken an existence sealed by ancient shamans.
Jooyeon looked at the great shaman as if wondering where he planned to commit fraud.
“You controlled Karacen, didn’t you?”
Then the great shaman burst out laughing.
It was because he never thought Jooyeon would know that far.
“Yes. I controlled the chief with the power I gained from that place.”
“……!”
It wasn’t just simple manipulation.
The great shaman’s shamanism turned the barbarian chief into a monster.
It was easy after that.
“I took over the tribesmen according to what the ancient being said. I got rid of anyone who got in the way.”
It was possible because of the barbarian chief Karacen’s strong power.
With the addition of the great shaman’s shamanism, there was virtually no one who could stop him.
“So what are you going to do about it?”
Those who had already fallen for the Grand Sorcerer had all been killed by the chieftain.
A few survivors had escaped, but they were nobodies, not worth the effort.
Those who carried the bloodline of Karassen would soon be dealt with as well.
“You can’t stop me anyway. I don’t know how you blocked my sorcery… …but it will be useless against the power of Karassen.”
The Grand Sorcerer swung his staff.
Karassen, whose pupils had turned white and had been motionless, began to move.
However, Joo-yeon looked at Karassen as if he were pitiful.
A strange voice seemed to reach Joo-yeon’s ears. It was the sound of Karassen’s soul crying out.
-I don’t want to kill my brothers anymore.
-Please kill me instead.
-Don’t let me hurt my brothers… my family!
It felt similar to when he had gone to find the holy sword and heard Ryu-jin’s voice.
No, it felt like an even stronger emotion than that.
‘Is it because Ryu-jin is dead, but Karassen is alive?’
Joo-yeon felt a strong churning in his stomach.
This must be anger.
The savage chieftain Karassen loved the little ones and cherished his comrades more than anyone else; he couldn’t bear to see them get hurt.
Even if Joo-yeon just grazed him, he would immediately become restless and think it was his fault; he was such a good guy.
But what had they done to such a guy?
It was enough to make fire shoot out of his eyes.
‘It’s definitely important to retrieve the Artifact .’
The job he would get through Karassen was also important.
However, what took precedence over all of that was this.
“I will make you pay for what you did to my comrade. With interest.”
He was a comrade who had crossed the river of death with him countless times in the past.
He couldn’t stand for anyone to touch him.
However, it seemed that the Grand Sorcerer was thinking along similar lines.
“You talk big. How do you plan to make me pay! Just hand over your money quietly and die!”
The Grand Sorcerer got up from his seat, covered in blood.
His staff pointed at Joo-yeon.
“Go! Karassen! Destroy the one who has insulted me on my land!”
Kreeeuuugh!
Red light shot out of Karassen’s eyes.
The red bloodlust rose in the arena.
Kreeeuuugh!
The savage warriors also charged forward, shouting.
The great warriors did the same.
“Come forth! My Lord!”
A red aura rose above the savage tribesmen charging towards Joo-yeon.
It was as if something was taking form.
If he waited a little longer, it seemed like it would descend.

However, Joo-Yeon laughed as if he were amused.
“You idiot. Did you really think I’d wait for you to summon a spirit?”
It was the universal rule to attack during transformation.
In fact, it was a waste to even use Reflection on someone like that.
That bastard had crossed the line.
In an instant, Joo-Yeon’s eyes flashed gold.
Dae-Do looked at Joo-Yeon in surprise. For a moment, did he seem to overlap with someone else?
[<Physical Enhancement> has been activated.]
Time began to slow down as if it had stopped.
[<Black Wings> has been activated.]
In a world where everything had slowed down, black wings sprouted from Joo-Yeon’s back.
Feathers scattered in all directions.
[<North Wind>’s authority has been activated.]
That was the power of the North Wind’s Siond, the original owner of the Black Wings.
Thunder and lightning began to strike down on the arena.
That wasn’t all.
Light burst out from all over Joo-Yeon’s body.
[<Dragon Bones> is activating.]
[<Haste> is activating.]
[<Giant Strength> is activating.]
It was the culmination of all the power he had gathered so far.
He could feel the Archmage’s face stiffen.
However, Joo-Yeon raised a finger and replied.
“It’s too late to regret it now.”
