Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 372
by Jessie@AFNCC
Jindun (4)
I was standing at a crossroads.
An imbalance that seems as if it might explode at any moment. A bomb-like ferocity that is breathtaking.
It feels as if the power and enlightenment that has been condensed to the limit within me is about to degenerate into something different from the existing silence.
Something completely different from the seven hierarchies that Lennoc had built up ceaselessly since he woke up in this world.
One step toward true self-completion beyond the seven stages of self-transformation.
Didn’t he follow his confident intuition leave everything behind and reach this cradle hoping that it was at the end of this labyrinth?
However when Lennok opened his eyes after the conversation with Jindun he still recognized that he had not reached the top.
‘It’s because of the transmission of barrier arts.’
As he receives at least part of the Ascendant’s origin technique the hierarchy within Lennok is greatly changing and turning into something different.
In the process transcendence which would have been achieved by gaining confidence through an answer to Jindun is being postponed.
A lot has changed from the original plan but it doesn’t matter much.
Rather I had an intuition that this opportunity given to Lennoc would become a stepping stone that would elevate him to an even more unknown level.
What will Lennok see if he completely masters Jindun’s barrier technique and reaches the highest level?
It might be something completely different from the other 8th level archmages he had encountered so far.
Perhaps the golden ring that appears like a halo behind his back may be grasping a piece of the distant future.
But instead of thinking about it for too long Lennok’s eyes flashed towards the figure of the leader sitting at the bottom of the stairs.
It’s so scary…!!!!
‘There isn’t much time.’
Memories flowed into my mind from the conversation with Jindun.
Through this he temporarily took over the control of the Hanghasha Labyrinth and imbued his body with the remaining magical power but this did not last long.
No matter how powerful and solid the Ascendant’s thoughts may be they are a miracle realized through power but they are basically a type of remnant that materializes the magician’s image by projecting it into reality.
Since the subject of the Jindun technique has died it is impossible to maintain its original form.
The magic power that Lennok uses now will also disappear after the pipes scattered around the cradle stop working and the power supply will be cut off.
But it doesn’t matter.
I was planning to get what I could against the leader of Pandemonium before my condition which had temporarily reached its limit ran out.

Weeeeeee!!
Lennok’s eyes rotate like crazy drawing purple magical eyes.
The crack engraved in the pupil became deeper and deeper making it impossible to see properly.
Despite the traces of countless cracks blocking the vision of his left eye Lennok did not stop and raised his magic power.
5 consecutive spatial leaps using the magical power constantly flowing through the body.
Lennok’s body which instantly jumped a distance of tens of meters with five flashes rushed towards the leader without any acceleration or stopping.
Papababababat!!
“There’s a wizard there!!”
Kwaang!!
Maiya’s new form which had been struck down by Lennok chased after her with pale flashes of light.
It blocks the overflowing magical power from reaching the leader.
Wow!!
This is because the leader realized that not intervening in this battle right away was in order to preserve Jin Dun’s remains intact.
The angled blade held in reverse in Maiya’s hand rotates in three directions with a single space.
The three magical forces twisted in different directions cut themselves down through repulsion and resonance creating a pale flash of light at the center.
Kiiing…!
It is the essence of Maiya Renslit’s microcosm that made her the best enforcer in the Machine City.
The extreme of the concept of ‘penetration’ that completely cuts through any resistance and barriers that block the way forward.
With her lethal assassination skills that not only interfered with the concept of space but also briefly reached beyond that realm she brought down countless chaos in the city and crushed it.
After the failure of the Gate of Ascension she was stripped of her authority as an executioner and her magic power was sealed and her skills have diminished compared to the past but her mental image of executing countless criminals for decades is still sharp and sharp and she targets Lennok.
Five space leaps rushing toward the leader. By looking at the previous two jumps the third appearance can be predicted with an error of centimeters.
It pierces Lennok’s heart before the moment he appears beyond space.
Phew!!
“…!!!!!!!”
Maiya’s eyes widened as she realized that the flash of penetration she had swung without shaking had landed on her thigh.
“Folded without exceeding the space…!!”
Had the space around Maiya been folded and bent so that the angle at which her arms were swinging was completely off?
It is not simply an artifact or spatial interference that has reached level 8.
Maiya who belatedly realized that Lennok was using a technique that manipulates space itself tilted her head but she was one step too late.
A breath that was almost a split second before I even blinked my eyes.
Lennok who silently landed in front of the leader raised his left arm without hesitation.
An elongated distorted thunderbolt exploded without hesitation and distorted the clock.
[Thunder seal]
Pazzzzzzzz!!!
A massive flash of electricity bursts out from behind the bent forearm. Concentrate all of that firepower and swing it at once.
The direction of the lightning essence that fell on the ground was not toward the leader’s heart but upwards.
Toward the face that is still noisy and unrecognizable.

A fleeting moment when we confirmed each other’s existence right in front of our eyes.
Lennok whispered using electricity flowing faster than his consciousness.
“That face. “I have to show it here and then go.”
* * *
Kwaaaaaaaaaa!!!
The wall of the cradle’s palace bursts open revealing Lennoc as if bouncing across it.
Lennok’s body was thrown into the air at high speed and stopped tall in the air.
Forced flight using only pure magical power.
Even though he uses a flying technique that is extremely inefficient compared to the magic power consumed Lennok’s magic power does not waver even a whit.
Lennok floating dozens of meters up in the sky silently looked down at the image of a cradle perched on a pure white lake.
It seemed like the opponent hadn’t come out of the cradle yet but Lennok had an intuition that the Brain Man had not worked.
‘I didn’t think it would go well from the beginning but…’
Of course just because Lennok obtained the magic power of the labyrinth he could not guarantee victory against the leader of Pandemonium.
The opponent is a monster of a different dimension who discussed the outcome from an equal perspective with the ascendant and even took control of his death.
Although we cannot know exactly what level of skill and power he has reached isn’t it natural that it is difficult to guarantee Lennok’s chances of winning?
However I thought I would be able to see the face covered in noise now that various conditions and situations have been added…
It was an illusion.
“I know what you were thinking. “But it’s meaningless.”
The leader said as he walked out of the cradle while holding Jindun’s remains.
“I’m not doing this because I want to. “It’s just a side effect of not being able to accept my cause and effect in this timeline.”
“It seems so.”
Lennok said.
“As if you were not a resident of this world.”
“…”
The leader was silent for a moment and then answered.
“As I said I have no intention of killing you. The party who shared Zygis’ answer. “The final will of the great ascendant must be respected as much as possible.”
“…”
“But regardless of that there is no doubt that his talent is at a phenomenal level… Jindun did not make a wasted choice.”
The leader looked up at Lennok’s face and asked.
“It looks like you’ve figured out a way to escape the hierarchy right? “It wouldn’t be surprising if a new leader was born soon.”
A question closer to certainty rather than confirmation. There is no meaning beyond reminding yourself of what you already know.
Lennok who realized this also remained silent instead of responding to the leader’s words.
This was because I realized that although his words were different from the truth they actually pointed out Lennok’s power more accurately.
The leader looked up at Lennok for a moment and then slowly lowered his head.
“I am not happy about the addition of new power in the eyes of the Qing but… I will accept it. “If it is the will that Cheongyeon perfected through his death I am willing to respect it.”
“…A will that was perfected through death?”
Lennok opened his mouth to ask what he could not hear but the leader ignored him.
His body taking a step onto the lake slowly disappears as if blurring.
As if that was the whole reason for being in this place.
Lennok immediately tried to raise his magic power to hold on to the leader’s body but his entire body froze at the one word the leader muttered.
“I don’t know which one is your real name but you might want to think twice about my proposal.”
“…!!”
“Because you already deserve to be in the same place as us. Until then keep your secret buried in this cradle.”
The leader’s back holding Jin Dun’s remains disappears beyond the water fog.
Lennok stood silently and looked at the back.
The leader of Pandemonium already knew that Evan and Van were the same person.
* * *
Coo coo coo coo coo!!!
The slowly shaking cradle collapses and the entire white space begins to shake.
When Jindun died and his remains left this space the labyrinth began to collapse and collapse from the deepest part of it.
This pure white space that exists beyond the final gateway is the extreme limit of all of Sasang embodying Jindun’s most fundamental imagery.
It was not strange for the labyrinth to collapse from the center as the image itself disappeared and disappeared.
Lennok was watching the cradle collapsing from the top of the window pillar.
“….”
Kugugoogung!!!
Even if Jindun dies not everything in the labyrinth will disappear.
The entirety of the Ascendant’s thoughts is too powerful and vivid to be completely destroyed just by losing its owner.
This labyrinth has already eroded the entire real world and exists as a part of it.
Even if the source of power disappears the evidence that the labyrinth existed will not disappear and will remain as part of reality.
A cheer rang out from beneath Lennok’s feet as he watched the cradle collapse with a complicated face.
“I’m sick of it.”
Maiya has a very tired complexion. He carries Ermont’s unconscious body on his back.
She roughly tore the clothes to stop the bleeding from the clear cut left on her right thigh looked up at Lennok and asked.
“What did the leader say last?”
“He said fuck you.”
“Haha!”
Maiya burst into laughter and said with a straight face.
“Hey Evan. I’ve lived almost 60 years longer than you. “If you say something like that one more time…”
“Come now?”
Lennok muttered and stood up.
At the same time an enormous amount of magical power flowed out from his body like a wave.
“Aren’t there too many indecent acts for one to act like an elder?”
“….”
It was only then that Maiya realized that Lennok’s magic had not yet disappeared and her words stopped.
At this point the labyrinth began to collapse. It is not surprising that the residual magical power accumulated in the cradle had long ago exhausted its effectiveness.
But what does it mean that the magical power flowing from Lennok’s body still maintains its power?
Lennok went beyond simply temporarily handling the magic power of this labyrinth and succeeded in greatly increasing the size of his maximum magic power.
When Maiya realized this she burst into laughter without realizing it.
“Ha now I see that it was you not the leader who gained the most. “Did you make not only the clue to level 8 but also some of Jindun’s magic power into your own?”
“….”
The transmission of knowledge of barrier techniques through games with Jindun.
It would have been impossible if it weren’t for the magical power that was used but Lennok didn’t bother to explain that fact to her.
“Except for you everyone who entered this labyrinth did nothing. “If the Hangxia Labyrinth collapses finding Jin Dun’s relics from the rubble will be a distant task…”
Maiya sighed lightly and turned her back.
“Have we done something good for the grave robbers who snoop around here decades later? “I guess it doesn’t matter.”
“Where do you plan on going?”
“Are you asking because you don’t know? “I’m going out.”
Maiya answered harshly.
“The doctor has already left and the leader told me to bring you two out but I have no intention of fighting you now. “I have no choice but to take care of this damn gem master and leave.”
Maiya who was carrying Jaun’s body on her shoulders could not hide a bitter smile as if she was quite embarrassed by her appearance.
“It’s like I took care of two guys who entered the gate and competed to the death and got out… I lived a long time too really.”
“….”
“I’ll see you alive. “If there is a next time.”
Her greeting nonchalantly brushes aside the fact that they had been fighting each other to death.
This was proof that Maiya Rensleyt had gone through and overcome many similar situations to get to this point.
Lennok turned his head to look at Maiya’s back as she walked away and disappeared.
At this moment when I have the energy perhaps it would be the right decision to kill Maiya right here and get rid of the regret.
Even though Maiya was exhausted after entering the labyrinth alone and dealing with someone of equal skill it was clear that even in Lennok’s opinion Maiya was an extremely strong person.
However even though Lennok clearly knew this he stopped holding his hand and Maiya naturally left the place as if it was natural.
Everyone knew that the presence of the leader who had just left this place was still tying the two together.
Since the leader declares here that he will keep Lennok alive Maiya cannot kill Lennok and Lennok cannot use his hands against Maiya.
If it is a being that casually talks about cause and effect and transcends time and space it might appear here again at any time and try to sort out the situation.
And Lennok had no intention of taking another gamble believing in such an unexpected possibility.
Rather considering what I had to do from now on it was natural to wait for Maiya to disappear first.
Sigh…!!
Realizing that Maiya’s presence had completely disappeared from the cradle Lennok slowly raised himself up from the window seat he had been sitting on.
The knowledge that Jindun gave through the game did not only include barrier techniques.
Knowledge of the Labyrinth. He also taught me where the relics he had collected over hundreds of years of life existed.
Lennok twisted his magic power into the window seat he was casually sitting on and rotated it.
At the same time as I manipulated the magic power in the direction that existed in my memory something like a small altar rose up right behind the place where the cradle collapsed.
Coo coo coo!!!
Lennok headed straight for the altar without even looking at the other altar stones.
