Chapter 917
## Chapter 917
Â
Kaaaaah!
Â
The mana sphere of the inverted sky was rotating, creating a shrill noise. The deafening noise and shockwaves were so terrible that they could cover the tinnitus caused by the Field of Loss. Those inside the battleships and the castle were groaning in response to the inverted sky, as if it were like waking up in the morning with pain.
Â
If it weren’t for the shockwaves of the inverted sky, the human world forces would have been completely absorbed into the Field of Loss, losing consciousness.
Â
“¡Aaargh!”
Â
“¡Ah…!”
Â
The knights of the alliance, the living golems and magicians of the Federation, the living golems and demons of Kinzelo, and the beastmen, were all affected.
Â
Although they didn’t know exactly what kind of magic Sakiel had unleashed, they instinctively felt the danger, so they were screaming to resist the loss of sanity. All those gathered in Grosch Castle knew that the moment they lost consciousness, it would be the end.
Â
Furthermore, the only reason they could cling to their consciousness at this moment was because the inverted sky was interrupting Sakiel’s magic spell.
Â
In other words, the lives of everyone fighting in Grosch Castle depended on Jin’s ability to counter Sakiel’s magic.
Â
[Kinzelo! Get as close as you can to the inverted sky sphere with all our strength. We need to gather where the influence of the inverted sky is strongest. Once you’re outside the inverted sky, it’s over!]
Â
Orgal shouted.
Â
Thanks to his recent resurrection of memories from the past, he knew exactly what the Field of Loss was.
Â
‘It’s clear how unstable Zito’s control is. I can’t believe he’s using the Field of Loss… If Jin Runcandel’s inverted sky can’t block it properly, we’ll suffer irreversible damage.’
Â
Betty Zipple was giving similar orders.
Â
“We have to hold on under the inverted sky. Humans and dragons move calmly under it. You can use the magic golem body as a shield.”
Â
The Magic Golems and Living Golems could be recreated if they were lost here.
Â
Until now, the inverted sky had always been a symbol of terror for the alliance’s enemies, but now it was a lifeline.
Â
Of course, Jin had no intention of deviating from his path to protect them.
Â
Although they had gathered here to fight a public enemy, they were not allies in the true sense and were clearly enemies.
Â
‘It seems like luck is on our side. Given the situation where I can’t completely control the inverted sky while I’m busy blocking Sakiel’s magic, if you want to stay alive and come under the inverted sky, I can’t stop you.’
Â
However, he had no reason to be considerate.
Â
The inverted sky was a great magic that induced a mana reflux in all living creatures within its range.
Â
And most of those close to the inverted sky possessed mana. With the exception of the living golems and Legend-type beastmen, all the demons and all of Zipple’s forces had mana.
Â
“¡Ugh…!”
Â
“¡Keheh!”
Â
Those who used the inverted sky to survive had to pay a price. Those with less mana than Jin or a poor understanding of magic were experiencing a mana reflux.
Â
With each step closer to the inverted sky, they could only vomit blood.
Â
Of course, there were also many in the Vamel alliance who possessed mana. Even while opposing the Field of Loss, Jin was adjusting the inverted sky to make sure it didn’t cause them any harm.
Â
“It’s too late to escape. The Vamel alliance should gather under the inverted sky. The influence of the spell already extends far beyond the wall of death.”
Â
{Yes, Sir!}
Â
{Understood!}
Â
Naturally, the Vamel alliance was the first to quickly secure the safe zone under the inverted sky.
Â
From time to time, members of other factions who were partially affected by the inverted sky and the Field of Loss pretended to be part of the alliance and tried to enter the safe zone. All of them met their deaths at the hands of the alliance’s superhuman swordsmen.
Â
After confirming that his allies had taken refuge under the inverted sky, Jin turned his attention back to Sakiel.
Â
About three minutes had passed since the Field of Loss was unleashed, and Dante had been continuously attacking Sakiel.
Â
His physical form had already completely disappeared, leaving no trace. The crystal ball had shattered and scattered somewhere.
Â
In its place, there was a purple aura that looked like smoke where Sakiel had been standing. Thanks to Zito’s true energy, her moment of death had been postponed, leaving her soul behind.
Â
[Jin Runcandel… You are persistent to the end…]
Â
“That’s something I should say, Sakiel. I don’t know what it was, but it was a pretty annoying magic spell.”
Â
Kiit, Kaaaah!
Â
The inverted sky was gradually absorbing Sakiel’s magic with more ferocity.
Â
Not only the Field of Loss, but also the Wall of Death was collapsing. Once the Wall of Death stopped closing, it quickly disintegrated under the influence of the inverted sky, revealing the landscape outside the castle.
Â
‘I knew this magic was being applied beyond the Wall of Death from the beginning, but I didn’t expect it to be so extensive…’
Â
A pure white energy that resembled sea fog, soaked in blood and demonic energy, spread endlessly over the ocean. Sakiel had calculated everything from the beginning, including the human world forces fleeing the Field of Loss.
Â
It was uncertain if the inverted sky could actually absorb everything.
Â
‘The amount of mana I possess is not the problem. So, even if Enya brought the mirror she’s using, it wouldn’t help.’
Â
In Jin’s assessment, what was needed now was not a means to amplify the inverted sky, but an individual who could quickly unravel the ‘Unknown Dark Magic’.
Â
And Orgal had accurately anticipated Jin’s dilemma.
Â
[Jin, this is the taboo magic of the True Demon World known as the Field of Loss. It could help you. If you can control the power of the inverted sky that is currently affecting our side.]
Â
Jin smiled ironically.
Â
“Orgal, do you think I need you right now?”
Â
[Hmm, I tried, but it seems it doesn’t work.]
Â
“Be thankful that your troops are safe thanks to my abilities. Be thankful that I’m not inactive enough to unleash this unpleasant feeling on Kinzelo.”
Â
In other words, if Kinzelo bothered him, he could send them flying into the inverted sky. Orgal shrugged and returned to his position.
Â
[Then, now a person can’t even say what they think. I just gave you valuable information, that’s all.]
Â
There was no need to owe Orgal anything.
Â
In the alliance, there was currently an individual who understood magic better than anyone else in the world.
Â
“Jin.”
Â
Valeria Histor.
Â
Jin smiled as Valeria flew towards him through the flow of the inverted sky. Valeria had been analyzing Sakiel’s magic immediately after her self-destruction.
Â
“Valeria.”
Â
“Thanks to Orgal mentioning the name of the magic, I felt more confident. It took me a while because the magic formula and magic circles were all unknown, but it’s similar to the kind of magic Zipple uses for history manipulation.”
Â
“History manipulation?”
Â
“It probably has an effect that damages the target’s memories. I couldn’t figure out the exact purpose of the magic, so it was frustrating, but the enemies seem to be revealing it themselves.”
Â
Orgal had provided the name of the magic, the Field of Loss, and Sakiel had spoken about the effect of “becoming an empty shell, forgetting everything”.
Â
Hearing Valeria’s words, Jin turned his head towards Orgal, looking at him again.
Â
‘Orgal… from the beginning, he must have considered that Valeria would intervene, so he intentionally slipped the name of the magic. To make it easier for Valeria to find the solution.’
Â
Orgal had a mischievous smile on his face as he gave a thumbs up.
Â
From his perspective, Jin was going to completely dismantle the Field of Loss with the inverted sky, so trying to help was simply a way to repay this debt to Jin.
Â
“That’s right, one of them had somewhat impure intentions.”
Â
“Now that we know the name of the magic and its purpose, we can gradually work on unraveling the complex spells and techniques. Understood? I’ll take care of that, so keep blocking to make sure the Field of Loss doesn’t expand any further.”
Â
“Understood.”
Â
“Thanks to you interrupting the moment the Field of Loss began, the spells have already crumbled in general. If it weren’t for the inverted sky, I probably wouldn’t have been able to unravel them so quickly. It was really dangerous…”
Â
Sakiel was completely stunned, to the point where she couldn’t even speak.
Â
Risking her life, she had unleashed the most taboo magic of the True Demon World. And, for that purpose, she and countless demons had been offered as sacrifices.
Â
Jin was dismantling the Field of Loss with too much ease. Also, a common human like Valeria Histor was analyzing and deconstructing the magic circles as if she were studying.
Â
‘This can’t be… How could simple humans stop the magic for which I risked my life so easily…!’
Â
An indescribable and profound sense of humiliation gnawed at Sakiel’s remaining sanity.
Â
The Field of Loss was collapsing before her eyes, but there was nothing she could do. Her body that would further develop the magic had already disappeared, the sacrifices were gone, and even her crystal ball was gone.
Â
Sakiel could only helplessly watch as Jin and Valeria dismantled the Field of Loss.
Â
[Stop, I said stop!]
Â
In the end, Sakiel could do nothing but scream.
Â
The moment she screamed, it became clear that there was nothing she could do, and it only made her appear more stubborn in the eyes of her enemies.
Â
Everything has gone to nothing, and Sakiel couldn’t bear the shock.
Â
Looking back, it had always been this way from the first moment she faced Jin. Zito’s flesh would disappear senselessly each time, carefully chosen attacks would fail, and no matter what powerful magic she used, nothing would work.
Â
In other words, Sakiel was desperate.
Â
“I’ll stop soon, so just wait quietly. Do demons also go to hell when you die? No matter where you go, prepare to receive your king. Zito will soon meet his end too.”
Â
[No!]
Â
Sakiel’s scream echoed. She continued to scream until the Field of Loss had completely ended.
Â
It was a pain and emptiness much greater than when she had been tortured by Zito in the past. Sakiel’s insides were shattered by the immense agony and the feeling of uselessness.
Â
‘Sir Zito… I will end up being of no use to you in the end. Without raising the flag of the new order. Sir Paellito, please don’t forgive me.’
Â
While thinking that, Sakiel could hear a mocking voice from within herself.
Â
It was Zito’s voice, echoing inside Sakiel.
Â
‘Puhuhuhu… Ah, I’m going crazy. Yes, this is it, Sakiel. This is exactly what I wanted. So, you don’t have to feel sorry for me.’
Â
‘Sir Zito…!?’
Â
‘Gkahahahaha, anyway, you’ve been working hard all this time. Don’t worry about Paellito. I’ll have fun with that guy too.’
Â
‘Sir Zito, what the hell…’
Â
‘You’re still addressing me so formally. Hey, Sakiel. Do you remember anything now? For example, a certain moment in the past when you and Paellito were very close?’
Â
Zito’s brainwashing that had trapped Sakiel was undoing itself. Forgotten memories were returning, and Sakiel had to face despair once more.
Â
Then, at that moment when she was about to curse Zito with all her might:
Â
“It’s over, Sakiel.”
Â
The Field of Loss shattered completely. At the same time, Sakiel lost her last remaining consciousness.
Â
It was the moment the attack on Grosch Castle ended.Â
