Summoned into a Magical World at Max Level - Chapter 1

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Looking at the densely packed soldiers under the city wall, as well as the large group of Grandmages floating in the air in the distance who were gradually closing in on the city, Kront’s expression became more and more solemn. The white mage robe he was wearing began to tremble.

As an Archmage of the Noah Kingdom, he shoulders the responsibility of protecting the Noah Kingdom.

Defending the glory as well as the dignity of the Noah Kingdom was a duty he could not shirk.

A formless power gushed out from underneath Kront’s feet like a tidal wave. This power spread in all directions and eventually enveloped the entire city.

However, this did not scare off the army in the distance. In fact, they were now moving even faster than before.

Kront’s power this time was very strong – much stronger than the power he had used to defend the major secondary cities. Now that they had retreated to the final main city, he did not plan to conserve any more of his magic power.

But it also meant that this was the last of his power. He did not intend to fight a long battle, or he would not be squandering it all like this. It was also to appease the despair of the people in the main city.

“Teacher Kront, what should we do now?”

Next to the old man, a beautiful girl in a purple magic dress that had delicate facial features asked softly.

Her name was Lifa. She was the Princess of the Noah Kingdom and the only heir to the royal family.

“Abyss Summoning!” Kront said slowly.

His eyes brightened with the words. Abyss Summoning was one of the ten forbidden spells on the Arnold Continent.

The strength of the summoned creature depended on the life level of the sacrifice.

Kront decided to use his own life as sacrifice.

As an Archmage with the highest life level, he might summon a demon or even an angel. But no matter what he summoned, he would make the Raytheon Empire pay a heavy price.

A massive black hole suddenly appeared above the entire Imperial City.

A hexagram magic array appeared underneath Kront’s feet, and numerous magic runes appeared on his skin.

The suction force of the black hole acting on Kront became stronger and stronger. The hole was like a greedy giant mouth, eager to swallow him up like a delicacy.

Kront’s face was pale. The strange black runes covered the sides of his face like tattoos.

At that moment, he looked at Lifa with a kind gaze, like an elderly looking at his granddaughter. His eyes were full of reluctance.

Lifa’s eyes were filled with tears. She clenched her fists, her nails sinking into her palms. Blood oozed out of them.

She stared at the slowly rising figure.

She looked up at the majestic figure that had protected her for many years. Her tears quietly fell.

As the figure got closer and closer to the black hole, majestic magical energy continued to surge, as if the world itself had been provoked.

The sea of enemy troops in the distance stopped in their tracks. The mages floating in the air retreated back.

Kront’s efforts were not in vain. Everyone could sense the enormous energy. Something was about to descend from the black hole.

This made the enemy army wary. After all, the unknown was dangerous. If they could survive, why would they seek death.

Seeing the enemy in the distance pause their advance, Lifa started to have some anticipation for the black hole in the sky.

She looked at the densely packed corpses and broken limbs under the city wall. The land was dyed red with blood mixed with scattered magical energy.

Smelling the thick scent of blood in the air, Lifa rubbed her face, her eyes becoming more determined.

This was a war of extermination!

This battlefield was a huge meat grinder.

None of the people of the Noah Kingdom ran away from facing the Raytheon Empire, an enemy that made people feel despair. All the mages, soldiers, and guards that were able to fight had all joined the war. They had all died. Not a single one was spared.

At this point, there were only some ordinary civilians left in the entire Noah Kingdom.

In truth, everyone understood that there would only be one outcome to this war.

The Raytheon Empire had conquered one city after another until they were now right under the Imperial City. Even after experiencing a large number of casualties, they still had 100,000 soldiers, 30,000 army mages, and five Archmages left.

By now, the black hole in the sky seemed to have enlarged to its maximum size. Even someone as weak as Lifa could sense that something was approaching.

She also noticed the hexagram in the sky getting dimmer. In other words, teacher Kront’s life force was about to be depleted.

“Teacher!”

Lifa closed her eyes. She did not want to witness this scene. Her beautiful face was stained with tears.

On the other side of the battlefield…

Five mages dressed in luxurious robes with golden rims stared at the hexagram that had disappeared into the black hole and felt much more at ease.

“Kront is a difficult opponent. He’s able to last so long against us five Archmages, resisting us from the front line all the way to the Imperial City!”

“Hmph, he’s just a stubborn old fool. He’s like a stone in the latrine, smelly and hard. So what if he performs an Abyss Summoning. As long as the five of us join hands, it doesn’t matter if he summons an angel or a demon. It’s meaningless!”

“Heh, princess of the Noah Kingdom, as long as you agree to be the maid of the First Prince of the Raytheon Empire, we can spare the lives of you and your subjects.”

“After the Noah Kingdom is taken over, the entire eastern region of the Arnold Continent will belong to the Raytheon Empire!”

…..

Despite the enemy’s mockery, Lifa’s heart did not waver.

She had already steeled herself for her kingdom’s extermination in this war. And the people of the Noah Kingdom had also decided to face the calamity together.

The enemy had five Archmages, and she was only a Grandmage. She was also the last mage of the Noah Kingdom.

Even though there was no hope, Lifa would not surrender just to be humiliated.

For the sake of Noah’s dignity, her teacher had already sacrificed his own life. How could she embarrass her teacher and bring shame to the kingdom?

Lifa took out a fist-sized, square-shaped, multicolored crystal from her spatial magic ring and held it in her right hand.

This was a compressed energy crystal. After being ignited by magic, it would produce intense power. All living creatures within fifty meters would be burned to ashes by the magic flames.

“Citizens of the Kingdom of Noah, Noah will never yield!”

Princess Lifa stood at the top of the city wall, raising the sage staff in her left hand as she declared.

All the citizens of the Imperial City heard the declaration that was filled with anger.

Each and every one of them had raised their weapons – there were hoes, scythes, hammers, and even iron pots.

“We will never surrender!”The citizens echoed one after another with tears in their eyes.

A roar that contained all the wills of the Noah Kingdom whistled towards the invaders.

“This kingdom is as tough to crack as Kront. If they’re so stubborn, let them disappear!” One of the Archmages passed down the order with a fierce expression on his face.

“How dare they challenge us, the Raytheon Empire. Let’s not wait any longer. We must immediately make them regret it. Even if they have summoned a powerful creature, we must kill it even if it costs the lives of these 100,000 soldiers!” Another red-haired Archmage said solemnly.

With that order, the army formation advanced once again.

With a normal summoning spell, one could usually see if a powerful creature had been summoned halfway through the summoning process.

But there was still no movement from Kront’s Abyss Summoning even though it was already halfway done. Neither the aura of a demon or the holy light of an angel had appeared. It was obvious that the summoning had failed.

Under the lead of the red-haired Archmage, the army advanced even faster.

At that moment, a stream of light suddenly beamed out of the black hole and landed on the city wall.

“Where is this?” The light disappeared, and a handsome young man muttered to himself, confusion thick in his eyes.
