The dicine-Taking Genius Wizard Episode 968: Geumje
(23)
An underground cavity filled with rotating purple and black magic.
The entire underground area shakes as if it is being sucked into a black hole that distorts space by sucking and pulling in even light.
The ti it appeared and existed at Victor’s fingertips was a mont that could not even be perceived with the five senses.
However, the miracle created using the forbidden weapon erased all traces left by Anathema with its re presence.
A dark ruin buried in the ground, with not a single ounce of light coming in.
Slurp slurp!!
“Woooo!!”
Felix’s face erged, struggling to stir his beak between the piles of dirt.
The bird’s head, breathing rapidly as if searching for oxygen, shook its head while buried in the ground.
“half? “Gwihee?”
“Felix. It’s here.”
Jump up!!
At that mont, the door burst open above Felix’s head and Lennok held out his hand.
“Because it is protected by magic, the mansion does not suffer much damage. “Co up.”
“…I think sothing similar to this happened once before.”
Felix, who had beco a ss, fainted. When he opened his eyes, Lennok, who was awake first, took care of Felix.
The mont when Felix, who rembered what happened in the closed area, smiled bitterly and grabbed Lennok’s hand and pulled it hard.
thud!!
Lennok’s body fell out the door.
“…half?!”
While Felix was shocked and hurriedly held Lennok’s head, Lennok stood up without any problem.
“I’m sorry. “I forgot to use the anti-gravity control.”
“…Are you okay?”
Felix asked with a worried look.
“It doesn’t look like it’s in good condition either.”
“no. “I have sothing to think about.”
In fact, Lennok’s expression is frowned as if he is concentrating sowhere else.
While Felix was looking at the situation with a suspicious look, Lennok, who had repaired the damaged shield, attached a gravitational chain and pulled Felix.
Coogung!!
Felix’s massive body was dragged out of the ground with an earth-shaking roar.
After shaking off the dust, Felix sighed and walked into the house.
“The living room…”
The mansion, which was neat when I first found the house, is covered in a pile of dirt due to the backflow of sedint.
Although the shape of the mansion itself was fine, it was probably because it could not prevent dirt from pouring into the interior.
“It’s late, you birdhead.”
“….”
Feisha, who was lying on the sofa in the living room, looked at Felix and snapped.
“Wouldn’t it be better to suffocate to death if you’re buried in the ground because you can’t escape the vomit?”
“…You have no sha. “It’s a needlessly large and heavy body.”
“Let’s sit down and talk first.”
Lennok patted the dejected Felix on the shoulder and pointed to a chair in the living room.
A half-tilted ho. It looks shabby, with piles of dirt underfoot.
Although the surrounding scenery has changed a lot, we sit together as we did before heading to the temple.
However, there was silence among the group sitting in the living room without a word being said.
“….”
Felix and Feisha are quietly looking sideways at Lennok, who is lost in thought.
A strange appearance, as if trying to observe Lennok’s feelings and gauge his mood.
“…hmm?”
Only then did Lennoc, who belatedly noticed the two people’s reactions, chuckle.
“Sit comfortably. “Why are you fidgeting like soone who did sothing wrong?”
“Hmm, that’s….”
“I’m afraid you’ll be upset about losing the golden weapon.”
While Felix cleared his throat, Feisha smiled crookedly.
“So thieves suddenly got my stuff stolen, and it’s normal to be so angry. “If it were , I would have destroyed this mansion a long ti ago.”
“Ah, it was about that part…”
Lennok trailed off and smiled wryly.
Feisha, with her arms crossed, tilted her head and said.
“That unpleasant masker. “He used a strange technique I’ve never seen before.”
“….”
“I t a few manipulators in the center, but none of them showed tricks as strange as him. What happened?”
“He is a special type of magician who was recently recruited to Pandemonium.”
Felix answered with a confused expression.
“They say he has an extrely arrogant and nervous personality, and has an unrivaled talent for manipulation techniques.”
“A special magician with that level of skill and background has not yet been properly identified?”
“They say there is extrely little information coming out even from within Pandemonium. There is also a story that no one knows the face in the first place. “It must be a monster with very special powers.”
Felix, who was answering Feisha’s blunt question, asked with a puzzled look.
“There have been several appearances in large-scale operations during the Pandemonium Battle, so I think information has already been circulating in the corps-level forces… Did you not know about this when you ascended to the rank of general?”
“No, that’s… fuck, it wasn’t like that when I worked in the field!”
Feisha, who was making excuses repeatedly, hastily changed the topic.
“Even taking that into account, it was the last black hole used. That doesn’t make sense. “Is it possible to use gravity just by obtaining one weapon?”
“It would be correct to say that a dangerous weapon fell into the hands of such a dangerous magician.”
Felix’s expression with his eyes closed beca so complex that he couldn’t hide it.
“It was a miracle in the form of literal manipulation of concepts. “Because I have that kind of talent, I think I was able to confidently stand up in front of the class.”
An ultra-small black hole that was last used as Victor’s incarnation.
It was only for a mont that its true nature was revealed above the underground temple, but there was no way that superhumans like Felix and Feisha could not recognize its true value.
No, on the contrary, since it is a power made up of a concentration of concepts, you probably know well that it can only exist for a very short ti in reality.
Since he has the skills and insight to witness and understand the true value of manipulation techniques, he can’t help but feel the gap and beco even more frustrated.
“As expected, the continent is large. “There are so many talented people that I can’t even imagine.”
“So wizard. “What are you going to do?”
Feisha asked in a crooked tone.
“Isn’t that why you’re still here because you have sothing in mind?”
From Felix and Feisha’s point of view, it is not surprising that Lennok was not able to achieve what he wanted and seed to have wasted his ti.
But how can we explain here the fact that Lennok designed and induced the result to so extent in the first place?
Lennok thought about the answer for a mont and spoke in a calm tone.
“You don’t have to worry about it for the ti being.”
“…don’t worry about it?”
“A failure or two is not surprising. “If you think of today as trial and error, it’s worth persevering.”
“….”
“Wouldn’t it be okay to pay this debt back to Pandemonium later?”
In response to Lennok’s calm answer, Feisha looked at him with a puzzled gaze.
A strange reaction, as if you were faced with an incomprehensible creature.
“Why are your eyes open like that?”
“…This is not the patience I know.”
“….”
Feisha’s question was strangely sharp.
Feisha, who was looking intently at Lennok, suddenly spoke.
“I’m not going.”
“What kind of nonsense is this all of a sudden?”
“Even if you suddenly turn around and go to kill Bokmajeon, don’t drag in.”
“….”
“I don’t know what you’re planning so you’re being so relaxed, but that’s what you’re aiming for in the first place, so-”
“We’ll talk about what to do against Pandemonium later.”
Lennok raised his hand, interrupting Feisha, who was quickly spouting off as if she was resentful of being dragged around.
“For now, let’s focus on today’s harvest.”
“harvesting? Where is the harvest? “It was all stolen without even being able to touch it.”
I think even Feisha was watching Lennok’s attention because he couldn’t bring back all the relics from Anathema’s temple in the first place even after seeing them.
However, rather than bothering to refute Feisha’s words, Lennok put his hand into her bosom without saying a word.
Woooo!!
A grumpy poisonous toad and a ring spreading cold air appeared on the table at the sa ti.
“…what?”
“Unbelievable.”
Feisha, who had been lying down with an expression of displeasure, stood up and Felix looked at Lennok with an expression of shock.
“It’s a relic stolen by the demon warriors. “Since when…?”
The Ice Beast and the Curse Maw were originally supposed to be stored in Anathema’s temple, but fell into the hands of Soryu and Ermont, respectively.
Lennok took the two artifacts from Pandemonium’s hands and escaped the temple.
It’s surprising that he was able to do such a thing while dealing with Pandemonium, but what’s even more surprising is that even Feisha and Felix, who were on the sa side, didn’t notice.
“Right before escaping from the temple, there was a ti when I was distracted by the technique they used.”
[Guess] Lennok
said as he placed his hand on the head of the poisonous toad that was crying loudly.
“We failed to retrieve the taboo weapon, but we eventually succeeded in securing these two items.”
The reason why Victor’s incarnation did not leave imdiately after retrieving the taboo weapon and had him confront Lennok.
From the beginning, Lennok had no intention of handing over the Iceling and Cursemaw into Pandemonium’s hands.
Therefore, Lennok moved the incarnate body to help the demon battle until just before escape.
The mont the jewel stairs are destroyed by Ban’s thunderbolt, he steals away the cursemaw and the ice gno and equips the taboo weapon.
He deployed an ultra-small black hole and destroyed the temple, simultaneously handing over the two artifacts to Lennok.
It would not have been possible if it were not for the secret manipulation of magicians, whose presence was so subtle that they could not be seen, and the compassion of the archangel, who could transform inorganic objects into space.
If they hadn’t used such skill to destroy the board at the end, Soryu and Ermont would have imdiately realized that the relic had been stolen.
“I can’t have all the items whose ownership has been transferred to taken away with my eyes open.”
Lennok smiled at the two people who were looking at us with astonished expressions.
“So, I was thinking about how to use these two artifacts rather than the things I lost right away.”
“How to use it. “Who among us would use this relic other than you?”
Feisha snorted and snatched the poisonous toad away.
[Geueeeek]
She looked at the poisonous toad struggling with a strange cry with a sullen expression, opened the toad’s mouth, and said.
“This is not a living thing. “It’s a fetish made from lumps of resentnt.”
“….”
“It must be sothing made by an ancient dicine man or shaman. Many of the recipes for making high-level castings are outdated, so modern shamans can hardly use them. “It is a miserable situation in the shaman world that even shamans rely on artifacts.”
“This is my first ti hearing about the origin of casting. “You have considerable insight into witchcraft.”
Felix looked surprised at Feisha’s fluent explanation.
“Did you personally study witchcraft separately?”
“How the fuck can that be? “When did you learn and use such a troubleso technique?”
Feisha responded angrily and shook her head as if she was disgusted.
“I know a shaman. He is a psychopath who is constantly trying to spread and teach witchcraft. “I heard it from that guy.”
“….”
Feisha said as if it was no big deal, but Lennok paid attention to the shaman’s presence.
Given Feisha’s personality, it is safe to say that she is unlikely to let a magician who tells her nonsense.
If so, wouldn’t it be because the shaman who forcibly injected magic information into Feisha’s head was so powerful that even Feisha couldn’t do anything about it?
And for soone with that level of skill and status within the corps, it’s clear-
“For people like and Saehead who are not good at witchcraft or black magic, this is simply an unpleasant decoration.”
Feisha held the toad’s mouth wide open to both sides and said with a grumpy expression.
“I’ll add the ring called Ice Man. “Is there anyone here who has mastered the ice-bound and blood-type powers?”
“….”
“From what that prince is talking about, it seems like it’s probably specialized equipnt tailored to that royal family. “If you touch these things for no reason, you will be cursed, not blessed.”
Feisha said that, half-lying on the sofa and tilting her head back.
“Both are useless. Well, if I sell it separately at an auction house later, a custor with a sharp eye might buy it.”
“Hmm…”
Was it just inco that all three of them could not use after struggling for over half a day?
Felix couldn’t react to that fact, let out a sigh and lowered his head.
“I’m sorry, Ban. I probably could have done a little more on the spot. “If I had used a little more of Dorae’s magic power-”
“It was enough to get one shot at Maiya, so there is no need to apologize.”
Lennok said and lifted the curse maw that Maiya had thrown away.
“And forget about all that bullshit Feisha said. “This is sothing that could be quite useful to all of us right now.”
“What you bastard?!”
“If you saw a warlock nad Ermont using the Curse Maw, this is an item that eats away specific curses or grudges.”
Lennok said after tapping the poison toad’s head.
“To be precise, no matter what you feed it, it only absorbs curses and resentnt and spits out the rest.”
How was Ermont able to use the curse maw to summon Maiya and Blood Fury to the basent of the temple?
That’s not because Ermont took the curse that was placed on him and received pure black magic in return.
In the first place, he fed his magic to the cursemaw and then used the magic power from the curse to use black magic instead.
“Eating away curses and resentnt seems to have a definite purpose, but if you think about it a little more, it can be applied in a variety of ways.”
Lennok’s eyes lit up as he looked back at Felix and Feisha.
“Purification of thoughts or magical power. “It can wash away objects or powers that contain evil energy.”
“So what does that have to do with anything-”
“…Ah!”
Felix, who interrupted Feisha’s words, trembled violently as if he had been struck by lightning.
Felix t Lennok’s gaze and asked with a slightly agitated expression.
“Could it be the magic of arrival…?”
“okay.”
Lennok nodded and threw the curse maw at Felix.
Lennok said while looking at Felix who suddenly took the poisonous toad.
“A peculiar resentnt contained in the magical power of arrival. “If you feed it to the cursemaw and filter it out, the purity of the magic power will be much higher.”
“….”
“If the problem is the insanity and side effects that co while using magical power, wouldn’t it be possible to focus on training more easily if you purify it?”
The magic power of arrival that Felix uses is obtained by transferring the magic power originally contained in the weapon separately.
However, it is true that since it was the magical power of a superhuman who ascended to the level of a berserker, he continued to suffer from side effects while using it.
Therefore, from the mont Lennok heard about Cursemaw’s ability, he was thinking about how to use it.
He was thinking that he should test that ability before completely escaping Area 55.
“Felix. “Try to see if the cursemaw can purify its magic by feeding it the magic of arrival.”
“That’s…”
“If things go well, you can obtain the cleanly purified magic power of the Ascendant. “If the purity is high enough for others to use it-”
Lennok said and stood up.
“Perhaps Feisha and I can also utilize that magical power.”
“Where are you going to go by yourself while asking others to do the work?”
“I plan to test my ice craftsman skills.”
Lennok said, clutching the ring that spread cold air.
“As you said, if you are not the royal family of Kabahim, this is not a blessing but a curse. “We’ll have to investigate exactly how it works.”
“I decided to freeze to death. Do whatever you feel like.”
Feisha lay down with her legs crossed and giggled at Lennok.
“Well, if you’re dead outside, I’ll at least light a bonfire.”
“If I fail, it’s your turn next, so be prepared.”
“….”
Lennok imdiately left the parlor, leaving behind Feisha, whose expression had turned into a bug-bitten look, and went back to the back of the mansion.
The underground temple has collapsed and the mansion is half tilted, but it is not completely buried yet.
Although the vacant lot below the sewer passageway has been partially destroyed, there is still so free space left.
In a place like this, even if I were to test my ice master’s abilities, the cold wouldn’t spread throughout the mansion.
“Then…”
However, contrary to his previous words, Lennok imdiately put the ring in his arms and sat down on the ground.
Place your back against the slanted wall of the mansion, close your eyes, focus your mind, and return the direction of your consciousness.
Although the two had given an appropriate reason to leave, there was one thing left to take care of first.
“Phew…”
As I let out a soft sigh, cold sweat runs down my forehead.
The mont I closed my eyes, tilted my head back, and quickly dispersed my mind as if letting it flow.
Lennok’s consciousness suddenly sank, as if he was being sucked sowhere, and then began to blink.
* * *
galopolis Balkan District 21. The cathedral of Hialeah.
Above the chapel, where the sound of an old organ resonates quietly.
The mbers of Pandemonium stood surrounding the wizard wearing an obsidian mask.
The sharply heated air. The other mbers’ wary gaze as if they were seeing an enemy sowhere.
However, Lennok was not paying attention to the gaze pouring in from around him and was looking closely at the glass-colored gauntlet on his left hand.
A tallic light shining brilliantly on the palm of the gauntlet.
A strange, intoxicating reaction, as if one were seeing one’s own face reflected through it.
“so.”
Sister Hilea, who was massaging her temples with an expression of pain, said:
“Victor, I think you need to explain what you did in this operation from beginning to end.”
