88,

"The real fight has begun..."

On a dark night in Bruru Yu, Mr. Cyclone and Ceceilia stood together by a rocky cliff.

From a distance, they silently watched the forest below the cliff.

Occasional flickering flames and explosions could be heard from the forest, indicating the battle between the two Royal Naihar tribes.

Another explosion occurred, and then, in the midst of the forest, a familiar figure appeared.

Becoming more and more visible, growing larger and larger, the towering forest could no longer hide his presence.

The six legendary summons, the strongest summon of King Ellen, the Frost Giant, appeared.

With a sweep of his hand, the dense forest became a clearing.

Having witnessed the fear of the Frost Giant up close, Mr. Cyclone didn't believe that His Majesty would lose.

But in the darkness of the forest, a beam of light shot out.

Standing on the shoulder of the Frost Giant, he was like a clear target. The second beam of light was fired towards King Ellen.

Fortunately, the Frost Giant blocked the beam of light with his hand in time. Although his hand was severely burned, it instantly recovered to its original state with King Ellen's magical replenishment.

"Aren't you His Majesty's teacher? Aren't you going to stop this?" Mr. Cyclone asked Cecilia, who was standing still beside him.

"...I no longer have any magic power left. After that incident, I am no longer their teacher," came the unexpected answer.

"No magic power?"

"That time... the Prime Minister absorbed all of my magic power..."

Mr. Cyclone stared straight at King Ellen's figure, his hand pressed against his chest. He could sense the pain and love that Cecilia revealed.

"To stop him, I used up all of my magic power, but it was absorbed and even damaged the source of my magic power... Now I can't even regenerate a little magic power for myself..."

Mr. Cyclone had no knowledge about magic, so even though Cecilia was speaking about something important, he could only listen as an audience.

"The compatibility is too poor, and because of that incident, fear has filled Clyde's heart. I heard that whenever he uses magic in front of the Prime Minister now, his hands tremble."

"So that's how it is."

Although Mr. Cyclone was the hero who killed the Prime Minister, in fact, he didn't know much about the Prime Minister.

"The Demon Clan's move is truly outstanding. Aside from the fact that the Prime Minister himself is a powerful magician, his proud magic absorption technique is a feast for us who infuse magic into our summons..."

A beam of light flashed by, instantly evaporating the cliff next to Mr. Cyclone.

Stunned, Mr. Cyclone sat down, but Cecilia continued to watch King Ellen's battle as if nothing had happened.

"It's a natural enemy..."

Although Mr. Cyclone didn't quite understand magic, he still understood a bit from Cecilia's few words.

Summoners concentrate all their lifelong magic power on strengthening their summons, but the exposed summons themselves are a source of magic power, a delicious meal for the magic absorption technique.

That's what they call poor compatibility.

However, the battle had caused a large area of the forest to become empty.

"Back then, you could do nothing... and now you dare to come back!" Ceceilia exclaimed as several beams of light simultaneously targeted the Frost Giant.

"What's wrong? Answer me! Aren't you the king? Yes, haha!! You are! But you can't even protect your people... You're a useless king!"

Protected by the forest, Ceceilia continued to unleash beams of light from different dark corners. King Ellen, who was being attacked unilaterally, continued to defend himself.

"How boring... Tonight... damn it... I should have had free time tonight..."

Although the Frost Giant's fist was incredibly powerful, its speed and attack range were very limited. Even someone ignorant of combat like Mr. Cyclone could tell that King Ellen never once landed a hit on Ceceilia.

"It's coming, the true power of King Ellen."

Suddenly, Cecilia softly said from beside him. The Frost Giant's shoulder began to emit a strong light that illuminated the entire land.

"Come out!! Sword of the King!!!!!"

A massive rock appears under the sky and falls in front of the Frost Giant.

"What's this? What can a single rock do?"

It may not be visible to Sisi Lyte's eyes, but Mr. Cyclone in the distance sees it very clearly. On top of the boulder, there is a giant golden sword inserted.

"In response to my command, pick it up!"

Responding to King Allen's will, the Frost Giant pulls out the sword inserted in the boulder.

"With the Sword of the Oath of Victory, I shall forge the path ahead for the King!!!!"
