Elden Ring: Atai vows to have a perfect ending

Chapter 509: Magic Duel (Part )

“Hah~ Yo… It’s you, my child.” In the dark library, “Full Moon Queen” Lenara seemed to sense my arrival and raised her eyes from the amber jade in her arms. “You also want to be born again, so are you here?”

"Well, please, Your Majesty." I nodded and took out a group of teardrop larvae.

This is the item dropped by the Shrimp Firewood King in the Lienia Lake area when I conquered it with Shrimp Brother. It was obtained by Shrimp Brother at that time. After that, I saved some money and exchanged it with him.

"In order to defeat Teacher Se Lian, please help me transform into a battlefield magician with intelligence as the main and strength as the auxiliary."

The queen smiled and stretched out her hand to me, holding me in her arms: "Then, come, be born as a good child..."

As her words fell, the Great Rune of the Unborn in the amber jade emitted a shining light.

The teardrop larva in my hand seemed to come alive and suddenly hugged my chest. Then there was a sudden and intense pain, as if a hole was chiseled in my chest and all the strength was sucked out of the hole. It hurt so much that I almost fainted.

Lena was whispering softly in my ear. She kept stroking my head with her hand as if she was comforting a baby, saying, "······Don't be afraid, I will make sure that you will be born into a good child·····"

Then, gradually, the pain disappeared, and the teardroplets melted from my chest like ice and snow, penetrated into my body, and turned into a warm spring that flowed through my limbs and every corner of my body.

My brain, which was in a trance due to the pain, gradually became clear. In the dim room, I raised my eyes and seemed to be back on the quiet water surface, and saw an elegant and bright moon hanging in the sky.

Under the sparkling moonlight, there was the figure of Lenara.

"Zero, my good child." She smiled and called me softly. Her cloudy eyes were now flashing with a blue light full of magical power. "Come, come to your mother and accept this scepter."

I couldn't help but feel a little surprised: "Lady... Queen?"

——The one in front of me must be the consciousness of Rena herself. I didn’t expect that I would be personally invited by her to come and wash up.

"Remember, all the magic in this world is not difficult to understand. Their origin is actually the power of human imagination, an imagination that you know is achievable. So, use your magic to your heart's content and use your unique and wonderful ideas." Lenarra said, opening her arms and hugging me once again. "Then, go and save that talented woman who has gone astray."

······

"Teardrop Larva?" After dodging my Comet Azrael, Seren quickly understood why I, a warrior, could cast such high-level magic.

I also pointed the Kalia Scepter at him and said, "I am a humble disciple, but I dare to ask for your advice."

After saying this, the pyroxene on Kalia's scepter shone, responding to the runes in my memory, and a huge pyroxene burst out, dragging with it a magical glow, like a comet traveling through the universe.

Magic-broom star.

Se Lian responded to my attack with "Broom Star" without saying a word.

The two comets collided, unleashing such violent energy that Se Lian and I both took a step back.

After stabilizing my body, I swung the Kalia Knight Sword with my right hand and quickly rushed towards the opponent.

——After all, Teacher Se Lian is a traditional magician, that is, a classic glass cannon. If he can engage in close combat, it will naturally be of great benefit to me.

Combat skill - hound step!

I increased my speed and rushed forward, but when I saw Se Lian step back and steady himself, he poked the pyroxene staff hard into the ground.

All of a sudden, I seemed to see the nebula in the universe spreading out from the top of the staff, and then several bright and shining meteors flew out from the nebula and chased after me.

Origin Magic——Destruction Meteor, huh?

Even though I dodged to the side, the meteors turned and continued to chase me, making it impossible to get any closer to Se Lian.

I had no choice but to throw out the Kalia Scepter and use the magic line to pull it, making the scepter spin in the air and turn it into a shield to block Seren's destructive meteor.

But there were too many magic balls, and soon, the Kalia Scepter was bounced away.

Then, the remaining meteors chased me again, and I had no choice but to hold the Kalia Knight Sword tightly, inject runes into it, let the magic power wrap around the sword, and then I aimed at the attacking meteors and kept swinging at them.

I don’t know if it was because my agility had decreased, or because the meteors summoned by Se Lian came too fast, but I was unable to block all of them. Several of them exploded on my body, causing me to stagger. I could not help but lean on the ground with my sword, taking a few deep breaths and recovering some strength.

On Se Lian's side, the pyroxene staff had already lit up a cluster of dark green stars.

——That posture should be the start of Comet Azr!

I quickly rolled to the side and at the same time, picked up the Kalia Scepter.

When I looked up, I didn't see the torrent of magic coming straight at me, which made me stunned for a moment, and then the next second, I felt a sharp pain in my back as if I was suddenly stabbed by a sharp stone.

——Is it the dark magic "Surprise Attack on Magic Gravel"? !

In order to launch an unexpected attack from behind the opponent, Teacher Seren deliberately used the Comet Azrael to attract my attention, causing me to only focus on guarding against the front and completely forget to pay attention to the back.

Then, several magical meteor showers attacked head-on.

no solution anymore.

I picked up the Kalia Scepter, jumped with force, curled up my body into a ball, and then asked the rune magic to wrap me up completely.

Magic——Lenarra's Full Moon.

The meteor met the moonlight and was completely absorbed. Then, the full moon was released from my body and flew towards Se Lian.

"Oh? I didn't expect that you could even use this trick? It seems that the queen really likes you, disciple." Facing the full moon that was crashing towards her, Se Lian was completely unhurried. She raised her staff above her head, chanting a spell quickly while waving it.

Above there, a dark blue hole soon formed, and even the full moon was attracted to it, and finally fell into the hole and disappeared.

This time it's the forbidden magic of Selia Town again - Eternal Darkness? !

It seems that in reality, Teacher Seren has not only mastered all kinds of magic in the academy and the three origin magics, but she has also probably consulted Master Lusert about the dark magic of the town of Selia.

——By the way, if that’s the case, the memory grid won’t be enough! She is indeed a talented magician.

"Use whatever magic you have, Ling. Let me see it for myself." Se Lian put away the Eternal Darkness, but her pyroxene magic wand still shone with blue light. "Otherwise, you will be completely swallowed up by the starry sky."

These words made my heart feel cold.

Turning my head, I suddenly noticed that although it was after noon, the main entrance of Rhea Lukalia College was shrouded in darkness without anyone noticing. There were many small pyroxene balls flickering in the darkness, like stars in the night sky.

...I have seen this move before. In the back of the Eternal City of Noxstella, when facing the Shadow of Disaster of Lani, Seren used a domain-like spell - Rain of Creation Stars.

And in the next second, several pyroxene balls burst out with several beams of light, surrounding me from all directions.
