Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 395



Maansang-dong (2)

Woooo!!

A magnificent resonant sound as if dozens of harps were sounding together.

Lennok frowned slightly as he stood in the space where that unique tune lingered.

“There is a lot of noise between floors.”

[Be patient.]

Oliveira responded in a pitiful tone and made a gesture and in response a magnificent gateway turned upside down appeared at the end of the floor.

Kugugoogung!!

She nodded her head in front of the strange gateway that seemed to be turned upside down and the veil faintly swayed in time with the movement.

Slam!!

What is visible inside the inward-opened gateway is a long hallway sloping low downwards.

The quiet scenery with colorful carpets and picture frames with unknown shapes is impressive.

Oliveira said while walking down a hallway with some warm air.

[It’s been ten years since I’ve had an outsider come into my lab. Know with glory.]

“To glory?”

Immediately after Lennoc showed her his magic eye Oliveira left the bar without saying another word.

Near the basement of a huge factory facility located underground on the street behind the cartel’s headquarters.

In the meantime Oliveira was taking Lennok to his secret laboratory that had been hidden for decades.

“The location is very different from the president’s office I visited before.”

Lennok said as he followed her down the hallway.

A huge hallway inside the gateway. The overturned gateway reappeared at the end. The view of the hallway unfolding inside again.

All you can feel is the fact that you are endlessly descending underground amid mirror-like repetitive scenes.

[This is a place to be used only when official work is required. I try not to worry about the cartel’s business as much as possible but it’s not like there are cases where people ask me about troublesome things like you.]

Oliveira responded casually and increased her magic power.

[Sometimes it happens that the chairman’s name alone is not enough.]

Deeudeeudeeudeuk!!

Suddenly Oliveira stood at the end of the last gate and waved his hand and at the same time the hallway they had passed through began to bend and form a huge circular ring.

The head and tail of the long corridor meet to form a ring and at the same time the ring of the diagonal corridor rotates like a screw.

It rotates and sinks hundreds of meters underground.

Lennok faintly expressed his admiration at the unique entry method.

“All the gates and corridors we have passed so far were means to get to the lab. Do high-ranking magicians keep their labs hidden like this?”

[…That’s a strange question. Are you saying you give away your work without permission?]

“It’s not that but…”

Wouldn’t it be like the chairman of a cartel to be able to protect his lab while using the space in so many ways?

Lennok didn’t go around giving away his research and work but he wasn’t in a good position to hide everything as thoroughly as she was.

Instead of explaining the situation to her I turn the topic to the extremely thorough security facility that can be seen.

“It’s hard to believe that they built a facility like this on their own.”

A powerful and vivid barrier that can be felt every time you descend dozens of meters below the ground.

Even Lennok who directly inherited Jindun’s barrier technique can clearly recognize its strength.

There was no need to tell her how hard she was working to keep this place safe.

Lennok muttered leaning against the wall of the hallway and rubbing his ears that were weighed down by the altitude difference.

“It’s worth knowing how much wealth the cartel chairman has. Did they purchase an entire street in one district and make it private?”

[To hide a tree you have to create a forest. I just faithfully followed the law of scale.]

“okay?”

Lennok glanced up made eye contact with Oliveira and smiled.

“If you think about it that way the cartel is probably the biggest forest you have.”

[….]

The reason why she who no longer seems to have much interest in what’s going on in the city still remains the head of this huge organization.

What kind of tree did she hide in the forest called Kartel so is she still at least fulfilling her duties as president?

Both Lennoc and Olivia knew they were thinking the same thing but they said nothing more.

For Oliveira showing this laboratory now is a big reward and favor for Lennok.

It was not a very wise choice to start here in the hopes of revealing a secret.

thud!!

[We have arrived. Go down.]

“From what I felt I felt like I had descended almost thousands of meters. “If a lab were set up in a place like this it would be a hassle to come out…”

As soon as he got out of the wide open gate Lennok stopped talking.

The inside of a huge crystal with a radius of hundreds of meters.

A huge book occupying almost half of it is wide open taking the place of the page inside the lens.

Countless animals and plants moving about on the ground made of paper on top of a huge book hundreds of times the size of an ordinary human being.

Various creatures are running around in the small garden created on the page.

While Lennok was at a loss for words at a sight that went beyond common sense he stopped.

[This is an environment created arbitrarily to preserve the specimen in its intact state.]

Oliveira was thrilled as he casually walked ahead of Lennok.

[Unlike the initial configuration I pasted in some things but it was unavoidable in order to satisfy both security and performance.]

“They built an artificial garden deep underground like this… It must be a very unique method.”

Lennoc could not hide his admiration when he heard her words but Oliveira walked on without even listening to his answer.

[There is nothing to see here. Go to the next one.]

“next?”

In the middle of a huge book. When Oliveira standing inside the joint where both pages are folded gestures the book’s pages turn to the side centered around the two people.

Palak!!

At the same time the scenery of the grassland around the two people disappeared as if washed away and a completely different space appeared.

Among the broken pieces of all kinds of flasks and glass tubes equipment left behind after the experiment was over a specimen was left in an unknown shape.

A ruin containing the waste of a failed laboratory. Oliveira gestures again and before Lennok can react a few more pages turn showing a different scene.

A snowy field covered in snow. A mountain of scrap metal piled with pipes. A warehouse filled with carcasses of already dead animals.

Every time you turn a page the entire space implemented on it changes changing the scenery of the lab.

Lennok who finally understood how Oliveira’s laboratory worked let out a faint exclamation.

“The space itself is memorized as a bookmark assigned to a page and loaded… It’s a sophisticated method that feels unrealistic.”

Space is arbitrarily limited through a circular crystal and then different spaces are allocated to each page based on the shape of a huge book.

This is a method of creating a unique environment by switching between different spaces by flipping the bookmark.

“If a supreme wizard were to devote this much attention to one spatial coordinate for this long it would have been possible to obtain a sense of heterogeneity equivalent to the realm.”

[Hoo have you noticed it already?]

Although the scale and level may be different it is not much different from other magicians’ self-reflection areas or Jindun’s Hanghasa Labyrinth.

Oliveira Ron Maze was completely melting down her thoughts and resentments in this vast laboratory.

[This space is like a newly created second magnetic area for me. For a magician the task is to build his or her own laboratory. Even if it is not intentional the act of sincerity is reflected in the image to the limit thereby creating the isolation of the space itself.]

“Did you design and implement such a complex task with the concept of saving it on the pages of a book?”

[It was inevitable to experience various environments in a limited space. Ah this way.]

Wow!!

As the next page turns a new dark laboratory appears.

Artifacts and plants floating among countless laboratory tables glass pillars and unknown liquids capture the eye.

Lennok opened his mouth while looking around the interior of the laboratory.

“I heard that various by-products were created in the process of researching changes in the properties of magical power but there is no trace of such.”

Did you say that Mad Manson’s multi-physicist Iola’s magical eye and the change in the nature of Girard’s twisted magical power who was part of the working team were the works of Oliveira?

Of course I was imagining a laboratory for research enthusiasts who carried out human experiments without hesitation but it looked much more normal than I expected.

[I realized the limitations decades ago and changed the direction of my research. I realized that no matter how many lives I used as a sample it would be difficult to get the results I wanted.]

She answered gesturing to launch a huge telescope-like device near the laboratory.

[The more superhumans begin to build up the hierarchy the more they begin to change into something different from the existing human species. There were many parts that did not fit with the research I had in mind perhaps because I was delving into the golden art of human sacrifice.]

“….”

[Let’s stop talking nonsense and go back to the story about the Demon Eye. This equipment has the function of observing the human eye and recording its movement in particle units to analyze its condition.]

“For that matter you look very… unique.”

Between the lenses of the telescope something that looks like a living eye is writhing and making an incomprehensible noise.

[Keeek! Kiek!!]

“What did they take to make this equipment…?”

[Put your eyes on me and activate the magic eye.]

“…good.”

Lennok placed his eyes between the lenses of the elongated telescope she had lifted up and slowly activated his magic eye again.

The eyeball that starts to glow and run wild as soon as the magic eye is activated through the lens. I can feel the waves of magic seeping through them delicately sweeping Lennok’s eyes.

[I guess I understand roughly.]

Oliveira who was lost in thought for a moment with her eyes closed and her arms crossed nodded.

“Do you understand what the problem is?”

[When did you start recognizing the cracks in the magical eye?]

“A month ago. Although I was aware of a crack in my retina I had no choice but to continue using it due to personal circumstances. In the meantime the crack spread deeper and took on this form.”

Lennok said as he withdrew his magic eye.

“I know that it is not just something broken but a process of deteriorating into something. The problem is that my eyesight is decreasing every time I activate the Magic Eye in the process.”

Apart from the fact that Lennok’s magic eye which visualizes the realm of possibility is working without any problems when the magic eye is activated his left eye becomes completely invisible.

As the cracks covering the retina deepen the viewing angle itself is narrowing.

Lennok understood that this was a sign of change brought about by encountering something he had not seen in the labyrinth but he did not know when it would end.

It is a point where you have to choose either the crack will break and the Magic Eye will change into a new form or the current crack will be connected and the Magic Eye will be healed.

That’s why Lennok tried to get help from the wizard who knew the most about the Demon Eye among the people he knew.

Oliveira who possesses the ‘Seven Treasures of Magical Eyes’ which is considered to be by far the best among countless magical eyes may be able to solve the problem that is currently happening to Lennok.

Oliveira stared at Lennoc through the veil and asked.

[How much do you know about the Demon Eye?]

“I personally did some research. “I think I understand it as much as everyone else.”

[Then do you know that your Demon Eye was designed incorrectly from the moment of awakening?]

“…what?”

[In essence the magical eye is not a power that simply expresses itself in the pupil and shares its abilities.]

Oliveira who was sitting in a luxurious armchair nearby spoke while clenching with a bear in her mouth.

[A type of supernatural ability that arises when a series of magical circuits extending from the retina and optic nerve to the pituitary and pineal glands are twisted. Therefore the abilities of the Magic Eye are often far removed from the abilities or lineages one originally possessed.]

“I know that there are many such cases in the general manifestation of the magical eye.”

[However the case is different for a magician who has awakened not a trivial power but a magic eye so powerful that it can consume him. Will you maintain the original magic system and only use the magic eye as an additional ability or will you reorganize your power to match the manifested magic eye?]

Which conclusion did Oliveira Ron Maze who possesses the Seven Treasures’ Magic Eyes come to?

While Lennok was lost in thought for a moment she continued.

[Usually you realize which side you are as soon as you awaken your magic eye but your case is different. The power of the Mystic Eyes is growing abnormally quickly and has become equal to your level so your eyes are being overloaded.]

“….”

[Originally it would have been normal for you to have been devoured by the growing Demon Eyes before you even had to worry about this but the fact that you ended up with an overload of your eyes is proof that you are in perfect control of the power of the Demon Eyes.]

Oliveira laughed puffing smoke through her veil.

[It is rare for the magic eye’s ability to grow to the level of its owner’s but it is also surprising that it has reached this state without being eaten. Considering that a single-eyed awakened person with only one magical eye is more fragile than a double-eyed awakened person this would only be possible if the holder’s own skills match. This is my first time seeing a case like this in person.]

“Uhm….”

[When exactly did you awaken your magical eye? Can you tell me when you realized the power or specific power of the Magic Eye?]

Perhaps because they were talking about a common interest Oliveira began to ask various questions about Lennok’s magical eye in a much different manner than before.

Lennok also agreed that a certain amount of information disclosure was necessary to resolve the issue.

“I awakened my magical eye several years ago. “After I happened to observe the flow of magic power of a person whose left eye was transformed into a demonic eye I was able to follow it in a similar way.”

[…Are you saying that you did not awaken your magical eyes but instead opened them by stealing the flow of another holder?]

“Among the cartel’s general manager-level figures there is a woman named Iola. To be precise I imitated her magic flow.”

[Iola…? That child grew to this level by imitating the awakened Demon Eye?]

Lennok nodded to Oliveira who asked with an expression of bewilderment.

“At first like her it was simply interfering with the flow of magical energy. “I started using it because it seemed to be moderately helpful in between battles and then I realized how to use it in a slightly different way.”

The magical eye’s ability to visualize the realm of possibility may seem simple but it is so powerful that it is difficult to fathom its power.

Above all the ability of the Magic Eye itself acts like a mirror that reflects Lennok’s mental image so if you speak hastily you may be able to give a clue to Oliveira.

Lennok needed to balance his relationship with her between cooperation and boundaries.

“From what I see Chairman you are aware of the cause and solution to this problem. Let’s finish Ayun’s matter by exchanging information about it. “Can you understand it?”

[…For a young wizard these are indeed reckless words but they are good. I’ll answer you because you made a difficult problem easier for me.]

Olivier answered.

[The cracks in your retina are impurities that arise from the inability to handle the output of the magical eye itself. To solve this it is most efficient to divert the excessive output itself to another place.]

“Detour it?”

[Unless you plan to adjust the magic system itself to suit your Demon Eyes. If you were in a situation where your Magic Eyes couldn’t control the power itself the story would have been very different but since you seem to be controlling your power so thoroughly that it’s strange there’s no need for that. Among them the best way is….]

She stood up and snapped her fingers and a huge hologram appeared in the middle of the vast laboratory as if waiting.

[The magic eye is awakened in other eyes and the output of the magic eye itself is shared.]
