Chapter 38
Chapter 38
Dominic had not planned from the beginning to show Max Langtang a counterfeit.
In any case, a promise was a promise, and he had thought that showing something like a core would not be a problem.
That was until he returned from the expedition, rested, and examined in detail the core made by the Lich King.
‘This…… there’s still a magic circle inside.’
Еn̄ ũm а.і̃ ď
To be precise, the Lich King Ashiard had constructed the circuitry inside the core in the form of a magic circle.
It had been made in double and triple layers, so he had not noticed at first, but upon closer inspection he could tell.

He had already suspected it from the moment the core alone had been embedded in Mielle’s Hall without any artifact, but as expected, this core seemed to have been created not to make an artifact, but for some other purpose.
‘Is it to pass on this attack magic.’
In the era when Ashiard was active, paper and writing tools had been scarce, and there had also been security concerns, so engraving magic circles into a core would not have been such a strange thing.
Dominic examined the magic circle of the core more closely.
W̊ ӗ b̀n о̇vеl Е̌ n u mā
‘Attack magic, huh.’
He did not know the exact function, but he could tell at least that it was attack magic.
‘I should set up a barrier in the clearing where I train and test it.’
The moment Dominic realized that an attack magic circle was engraved into the Lich King’s Core, he abandoned the idea of showing the core to Max Langtang.

‘It’s become clear that Langtang did not target humans from the beginning, but it’s also certain that in my previous life, they were our enemies.’
Therefore, until he found out why they had turned their swords toward humans, sharing attack magic with a member of Langtang was out of the question.

Dominic immediately rummaged through his subspace and counted the jewels he had brought from Mielle’s Hall.
Then, among them, he found a usable Blue diamond and processed it to resemble Ashiard’s Core.
‘Can I fool Max Langtang?’
He had been slightly worried, but surprisingly, it had been needless concern.
Max Langtang had been very satisfied after seeing Dominic’s counterfeit and left.
“Then, shall we begin the real expedition report meeting now?”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
At Orphe’s voice, Dominic awoke from his recollection and returned to reality.
“What we discovered at the Necromancers’ stronghold was…….”
The expedition report meeting ended simply.
Dominic and the expeditionary force shared only very basic facts with the various vassals and knights.
They concealed the important facts they had discovered, because it was not something that could be told to just anyone.
Instead, after the expedition report meeting ended, they held a ‘real’ report meeting together with Duke Anika.
Е̄ n ŭ ṁа̃
“A part of Demon God Cassius’s body was sealed in the Necromancers’ stronghold?”
Duke Anika asked in great shock, and Dominic nodded.

“Yes, without a doubt.”
“Huh.”
“They are probably making plans for the resurrection of Cassius.”
Dominic did not bother to hide important information in front of his father.
Е̌n ůṁ a .і̊ d̊
Of course, he did not speak of the fact that he had regressed, or that he had exploited knowledge from his previous life to conquer Mielle’s Tomb.
“Huhhh.”
Duke Anika frowned.
“If that’s true, then this is truly serious.”

Duke Anika sighed.
He had not neglected reading old stories, and he knew well how dangerous and vicious a being Demon God Cassius was.
Е̇ nû m а. іd̈
“I will look into this matter as well.”
Duke Anika said with a serious expression.
“So do not try to shoulder everything alone.”
At Duke Anika’s words, which seemed to see straight through his heart, Dominic stiffened slightly.
‘That’s right. Even if I can’t reveal the secret of regression, I don’t have to solve everything by myself. Don’t I have a family?’
Suddenly, his shoulders felt much lighter.

“You must be tired, so you should go now.”
Duke Anika said once the real report meeting ended.
Dominic greeted Duke Anika and left the duke’s office.
But he did not go to rest.
The place he headed to was his small training ground, the clearing outside the ducal castle.
‘I want to test the magic circle engraved in the Lich King’s Core as soon as possible.’
Ŵе́bňо̊ v е̃l Eňu m̆ а
He earnestly instructed the squire who managed the clearing not to let anyone enter and not to allow anyone to approach the clearing.
Then he surrounded the clearing with soundproofing magic circles and shock-absorbing magic circles that he had learned(?) at the Imperial Academy.

‘That should do it. Now I can relax.’
After testing the strength of the magic circles with Max Langtang’s fireball, Dominic nodded in satisfaction.
Then he took out the Blue diamond, the Lich King’s Core, from his bosom.
After once more confirming the magic circle engraved on the Blue diamond, Dominic let out a deep breath and put the core into subspace.

And then…….
On Dominic’s palm, highly pure golden mana rose and flickered like flames.
For a while, Dominic stared at his mana.
Then the mana transformed into thin threads and began to recreate the magic circle that had been engraved on the Lich King’s Core.

Recreating the magic circle itself was easy.
It was partly thanks to Dominic’s talent, but also because the magic circle engraved in the core was kind, as if it were teaching a student.
Ŵёb̈ n̈ о̊v̂eľ Е n um â
‘Seeing this, it really does seem like a device for necromancers. Could it be sinister magic? If so, that would be troublesome.’
But even when the magic circle was about halfway complete, he did not feel much of a sinister aura.
Rather…….
‘My body……?’
Dominic tilted his head in confusion.
The more the magic circle took shape, the lighter his body felt, and at the same time, sturdier.

And it seemed that as his body became easier to control, his senses were growing sharper as well.
“Could it be…….”
Muttering ‘no way, no way,’ Dominic completed the magic circle.
At that moment, the magic circle was absorbed into Dominic’s body, and golden mana began to overflow throughout his entire body.
“So this wasn’t for necromancers, but for necromancers!”
Dominic realized.
Ӗ ǹů mӑ . і d
Necromancers were the powerful weapons and soldiers of necromancers, but they had one fatal weakness.
That was their low physical durability and dull senses.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The bodies of necromancers were prone to tearing and fraying at the slightest thing, and their senses were so dull that unless it was through their sense of smell, they could barely recognize even a target right in front of them.
But this magic increased the target’s physical durability and the sharpness of their senses.
And dramatically so!
“This is incredible. As expected of the Lich King’s magic.”
Е̄ ñ_u ṁа̃
While admiring the power of the magic, Dominic was suddenly seized by a question.
‘Then why are there no records saying that necromancers used this magic?’
Dominic did not know it, but there was a very sad story behind that.
‘It doesn’t seem like such a difficult magic.’
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The opposite was true. This magic was extraordinarily difficult.
So difficult that even the Lich King who devised it could not use it freely, and all he could do was record it in a core for future generations.
Е̃nu̇ m ȧ
‘Well, I’ve learned a new magic anyway, so that should be enough.’
Of course, Dominic had no way of knowing that.
‘It definitely deserves to be called attack magic. I could use it usefully in battle.’
He liked the fact that he could cast this magic not only on himself, but on others as well.
Later, when Dominic could reveal that he was a mage and expose his golden mana, he would be able to cast this magic on the knights of the House of Anika.
‘They’re already strong knights, so if they used this magic, they’d become incredible beyond words.’

If Dominic’s mana reserves allowed it, this single magic alone could overturn the course of an entire battle.
‘It’s a shame that I can’t expect such a dramatic effect on myself.’
It was when Dominic was lamenting his unremarkable talent in swordsmanship.
“No, wait.”
Dominic’s thoughts suddenly turned to the blue pills he had received earlier from Max Langtang.
‘The reason knights prefer blue pills is because even if they can’t be used in real combat, they’re useful during training.’
Ӗ ñu m̀a . і́d
Blue pills sharpen the five senses, allowing one to examine the condition of their own body in greater detail than ever before.
But the Lich King’s magic Dominic had just acquired also sharpened the five senses extremely dramatically.

‘If I use this magic and blue pills at the same time…….’
Wouldn’t the effect be tremendous compared to just using blue pills alone, or using only the Lich King’s magic?
“……!”
A chill ran through Dominic’s entire body.
Еn̈ u̇ma.
Maintaining the Lich King’s magic, he hurriedly reached into his bosom and took out his subspace pouch.
Then he took out another blue pill from inside the subspace pouch.
“…….”
After hesitating for a moment, Dominic placed two more blue pills on his palm.

‘I heard the limit of blue pills a person can take at once is three.’
Looking at the three blue pills in total, Dominic thought,
W̄ė b ǹ о v̄el Е̇ ń ŭ_m̆ а̀
‘Can I endure it?’
For a moment, a weak thought crossed his mind.
But he soon shook his head.
‘It’s not whether I can endure it. I have to endure it.’
Dominic had to become strong, no matter what. He could not lose his family and his life again.
And to do so, he was prepared to endure anything.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Closing his eyes, Dominic put one pill into his mouth.
A strange taste of sweetness mixed with bitterness brushed against his tongue, and the blue pill was absorbed straight into his body.
“Hoo!”
Suddenly overwhelmed by the even more sensitive sensations, Dominic tensed up.
His five senses had already become three times sharper due to the Lich King’s magic, and now twice that again—six times.
‘If I take one more here, that’ll be twelve times, and if I take the last one, twenty-four times.’
Ӗ n u mӓ
Normally, even if one took three blue pills, the sharpness of the senses would only increase to two times, four times, and eight times.
But Dominic would reach twenty-four times—three times beyond the normal limit.

He wondered if there had ever been a human who had lived with senses that sharp.
‘But I want to try.’
Even now, with his senses sharpened sixfold, he could clearly feel the flow of mana throughout his body.
If they became even sharper from here, he could not even begin to imagine what kind of new world would unfold.

Closing his eyes, Dominic swallowed one more blue pill.
Hoo!
In an instant, his senses became twelve times sharper.
Now Dominic could feel the flow of air brushing past his body, and even the movement of flower petals swaying several meters away.

But as expected, it was not easy, and the senses throughout his body screamed that they could take no more.
‘Maybe I should stop here. In this state, just circulating mana during training would probably shorten years of training.’
Е ň uma . ї_d̂
It was at that moment Dominic thought so.
From inside his abdomen—specifically, the lower abdomen—he felt a sensation he had never experienced in his life.
“……?”
Startled, Dominic widened his eyes.
A sensation similar to mana, yet never the same.
Unlike mana, which gently enveloped the body, this sensation roughly tore through the inside of his body, constantly trying to burst outward.

As far as Dominic knew, there was only one thing that felt like this.
Dominic had seen this sensation many times. The one force the people of the House of Anika handled especially well, the single force he had yearned for and coveted his entire life.
‘ Aura!’
That aura, though extremely faint, was unmistakably wriggling inside Dominic’s body.
